dd-wrt has it already :-)

Thank you for all the gymnastics to keep cake alive in openwrt.
I would still like there to be a sce branch of the out of tree work
that I could point people at
in my lca talk this week, but I understand that's increasingly difficult.

It’s complicated and it depends what you mean by openwrt.
First off, the fix relates to auto-bandwith mode or whatever it’s called and I
don’t think many people use it. Nonetheless:
Is the fix in ’net-next’: yes
Is the fix in 4.19 stable: In the queue for 4.19.95
Is openwrt on 4.19.95: No
Does openwrt use the in-tree version of Cake?: No
Is the fix in the Out-Of-Tree cake git repo: Yes
Has the openwrt CAKE package been bumped to follow cake git repo?: master, yes,
as of 2020/01/11 (earlier today)
OpenWrt 19.07 has just been released, its concept of cake package has not been
bumped. Neither has 18.06.
It is worth noting that until yesterday/recently the out of tree cake repo had
residue in it from some experimental stuff (SCE & updating conntrack marks) and
did not represent upstream in-tree CAKE anyway. That situation was corrected AFAIK
completely this morning.
Ideally I would like openwrt to use the in-tree CAKE, with ‘feature backports’ from
later kernels as backport patches. Unfortunately some targets in openwrt are still
on 4.14 kernels so there is no in-tree CAKE to use. Dropping CAKE from pre 4.19
kernels caused a bit of an outcry when I did it, so the next idea was to have a
choice of cake kernel module for K4.19 targets, in-tree & out-of-tree CAKE.
Unfortunately that exposed a weakness in package dependency selection, so that idea
hasn’t flown either. I’m afraid enthusiasm levels then dropped.
