Re: [OpenWrt-Devel] OpenWrt 19.03 plans

2019-04-10 Thread Vincent Wiemann
Hi Bjørn, Jo-Philipp, Eric,

all of you are right, I think. I didn't make clear what I'd like to see
OpenWrt achieve. Cuts need to be done when they delay a release too long
or when the reasons are not under the OpenWrt developer's control,
but when there is the chance that someone is getting motivated to do it,
delay it. After a due date, cut it and release the rest with a lack for
a specific feature and other people might get motivated, but that is the
last resort.

Personally I think one release a year is enough, except when there are
critical security issues which deserve an own release, but that is another
topic.

Regards,

Vincent

Apologies if this is out of line...  I just fealt the urge to post my
personal opinion, FWIW.

It seems to me that you are setting way too high standards for
yourselves.  From my point of view, the OpenWrt master branch is almost
always in a releasable state. The OpenWrt development and review process
ensures an extremely high quality, even for targets which are considered
WiP. There are very few days over the last 6 months where you could not
have decided to cut a release branch, and got away with it.  It's
something to be proud of! But you need to tell the rest of the world
that you are proud of this by making releases.

You should accept that the targets which are ported properly to 4.14
defines "all targets" for the next release.  It's not the other way
round.  Any remaining targets which can be expected to be ported to 4.14
or later, if any, can and should be deferred for a later release.  Note
that accepting this means that there could be a "next release" in 2019
too...

You should also accept that there will be unfixed important open issues
at all times.  You can't fix them all.  To make a release, these issues
will either have to be
  - ignored for that release,
  - demoted to less important. or
  - removed by removing the feature/target/whatever is affected by the
issue from the release

Look at the Debian "release critical" bug handling.  It's not really
about fixing all the RC bugs, but dealing with them.

I realize that actually making a release is real work too, and that this
has to take some time after making the initial cut.  But delaying the
cut for the master branch to get in an even "more ready" state is not
really helping...

Just my .021 € (considering inflation)

Hi Bjorn,

I agree with you on this one. New OpenWrt adopted a different working model
from LEDE. That is staging trees and more careful testing before actual
master commits. Long ago are the days when someone thought they were
special, commit without review, and just blow up the nightly builds.
OpenWrt should release regularly and it should be an editing (cutting)
event. Target not on envisioned kernel, cut. Package not core and sketchy,
cut. What's left is pretty good. With a variety of targets and volunteer
support team bugs will happen. You can test to high confidence, but in
such situations nothing is 100%. Instead, you just need to be prepared
to deal with them in a timely matter.

The following targets are still on 4.9:
* ar7
* at91
I saw some patches for at91 on the mailing list and Sandeep from
Microchip promised to send some new patches.
* ixp4xx
* orion

The following targets are still on 3.18:
* adm5120
* adm8668
* au1000
* mcs814x
* omap24xx (4.1)
* ppc40x
* ppc44x
* xburst

I would not consider any of these targets important and release blocking.

Are there any big regressions known for any target which is ported to 4.14?

> - disable all devices which cannot cannot handle the increased kernel
>   size anymore

It would be nice to have a build with LuCi enabled, I saw that sometimes
the rootfs partition is getting too big.

> - drop all targets which are not ported to 4.14

I will send a patch removing support for kernel 3.18 and all the targets
which uses it soon, if you need one of them please port them, to kernel
4.14.

Hi,

"ported properly" is rather vague, ipq* are the only "active" platforms 
the I would classify as troublesome and don't seem to be fixable in 4.14 
within resonable time otherwise the list I compiled seems like a pretty

It looks for me like mac80211 is trying to set the mcast_rate which is 
interpreted by ath10k in ath10k_bss_info_changed as 11 Mbit/s (CCK). Which is 
of course not supported on 5GHz. So all your pretty little broadcast/multicast

Two pieces of breakage there, only the second is the showstopper for me:

* The CT drivers/firmware do not support mesh, as confirmed above

* The "classic" drivers/firmware fail on or after the indicated commit

    CONFIG_PACKAGE_ath10k-firmware-qca9887=y
    CONFIG_PACKAGE_kmod-ath10k=y

That the CT drivers/firmware don't support 802.11s mesh

Worth considering:

fstools: Disable lazy init for ext4 overlay
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/1847

ipset: size optimizations
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/1852

iputils: update to 20151218 (might be worth jumping to official repo?)
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/1804

package/libs/libevent: Update to 2.1.9-beta (get 2.1.9 in before 
branching)

https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/1853

dropbear: bump to 2018.76 (just switch to master/head branch in worst 
case?)

https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/915

Import the following and make default for ARC:
toolchain: Update to GCC 8.3.0
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/1846
toolchain/binutils: Add binutils 2.32
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/1803

Might be risky?

There are quite many PRs and patches for adding devices which probably 
have to wait

Hi,

thanks for driving this forward.

What will be the status of the ath79 target in the release? Will it 1) be held 
back until the next release or 2) allowed to coexist with ar71xx in the 
openwrt-19.xx branch as far as it has been developed so far?

Best

Adrian

[OpenWrt-Devel] OpenWrt 19.03 plans

2019-02-22 Thread Hauke Mehrtens
Hi,

We missed January to branching off the next release, but we plan to do
this in March now. ;-)

The next release is planned to be branched off between 7. and 17. March
and 19.03-rc3 should be released between 2 and 4 weeks later, the final
release will then probably happen sometime in April.

I think all release critical features we want to have in the next
release are merged, I am not aware of any release critical parts
missing, except probably many bug fixes.

This release will only use kernel 4.14, the following targets which were
included in the 18.06 release will not be included in the next release
if no one proposes a patch to bring them to kernel 4.14:
* ar7
* orion
* at91

In addition I would like to remove support for kernel 3.18 and move all
targets which still depend on kernel 3.18, to this github repository:
https://github.com/openwrt/targets and remove them from master before
the release.

Here is the list of targets not on kernel 4.14:
$ grep KERNEL_PATCHVER target/linux/ -r |grep 4.14 -v
target/linux/ar7/Makefile:KERNEL_PATCHVER:=4.9
target/linux/omap24xx/Makefile:KERNEL_PATCHVER:=4.1
target/linux/adm5120/Makefile:KERNEL_PATCHVER:=3.18
target/linux/orion/Makefile:KERNEL_PATCHVER:=4.9
target/linux/au1000/Makefile:KERNEL_PATCHVER:=3.18
target/linux/ixp4xx/Makefile:KERNEL_PATCHVER:=4.9
target/linux/xburst/Makefile:KERNEL_PATCHVER:=3.18
target/linux/ppc40x/Makefile:KERNEL_PATCHVER:=3.18
target/linux/adm8668/Makefile:KERNEL_PATCHVER:=3.18
target/linux/mcs814x/Makefile:KERNEL_PATCHVER:=3.18
target/linux/at91/Makefile:KERNEL_PATCHVER:=4.9
target/linux/ppc44x/Makefile:KERNEL_PATCHVER:=3.18
