This patch supersedes the v1 from September 17th.
Bumping the patch version - the MiniBox profile showed up under M, but
since it's called 'Gainstrong MiniBox v1.0' now it looks out of place.
Renamed the profile to gs-minibox-v1.mk to fix that.
The following patch adds support for the Gainstrong MiniBox into trunk
(or 'Designated Driver' :D ).
Fixed items:
- Inverted LED polarity (OOLITE seems to suffer from the same problem).
- Changed uppercase MINIBOX_V1_ prefix as requested.
- Prefixes are now gs_minibox_ similar to gs_oolite_ (same vendor).
- Mention the vendor (Gainstrong) in code headers.
Compiles fine, has been confirmed working by owners on 15.05.
Question: I've seen some boards use tools/firmware-utils/src/mktplinkfw.c,
the MiniBox images build fine without, so I'm wondering: do I need to add
it in there as well? Any added benefit?
Thank you

This contains two sets of fixes for the 8139cp driver.
For all kernel versions older than 4.3, we can apply the fixes from the
4.3-rc4 kernel. In particular, these fix the TX timeout recovery which
is causing my Geos to lock up until the hardware watchdog kicks in.
For 4.0 and later kernels, we can also apply the additional improvements
which are going into 4.4 to fix and enable hardware checksum/TSO
offload. Backporting those to older kernels is non-trivial.

The default switch frame size (with FCS + header) is 1536 bytes. But the
GMAC only accepted frames up to 1522 bytes. Setting it to 1536 allows to
receive ethernet frames using the full of MTU 1500 + an extra VLAN header +
VLAN header added by the switch.
Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@open-mesh.com>
SVN-Revision: 47117
The driver assumes that the maximum received buffer for non-jumbo frames is
1536 bytes. But the allocation of the rx fragment doesn't reflect that. It
currently allocates fragments which will only be large enough to be used as
rx buffer with the size of 1534 bytes. This is problematic because the GMAC
will now try to write to 2 bytes which don't belong to its receive buffer
when a large enough ethernet frame is received.
This may already be a problem on existing chips but will at least become a
problem when the 1536 byte rx modus is enabled on MT7621a. It is required
on this SoC to receive ethernet frames which use their full 1500 bytes MTU
and a VLAN header next to the switch VLAN tag.

The length of the DMA rx buffer was always set to 0 because the function
for extracting the length was used to calculate the value for setting it.
Instead the macro has to be split in a get and set function similar to the
TX_DMA_(GET_|)PLEN(0|1) macro.
No problem was noticed on MT7621a before this was changed and thus maybe it
was hidden by different problem which is not yet fixed.

The MT7530 switch driver with enable_vlan set will automatically set all
ports to the user port mode. The hardware will remove the incoming vlan tag
on these ports and use it for its internal vlan. This is usually not wanted
and makes it impossible to communicate via vlan over the switch in both
directions.
It is possible to configure a switch port to "transparent mode" when this
port is only used as untag in the switch VLANs. This will disable the VLAN
untagging of packets when they were received on this port. The tagging on
"tag" ports based on the vlan id is still working.
The transparent port mode cannot be used when a port is both used in a VLAN
as "tag" and in another one as "untag" port.

commit r30917 ("kernel: bypass all netfilter hooks if the sysctls for that
functionality have been disabled - eliminates the overhead of enabling
CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER in the kernel config") introduced an optimization
which should reduce/eliminate the overhead for traffic send over bridges on
kernels compiled with CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER=y. But this optimization
breaks the nf_call_iptables per bridge setting which is more fine grained
than the global sysctl net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables setting.
A test reflecting a real world setup was created to identify if this really
eliminates the overhead and if per-bridge nf_call_iptables could be used in
some setups to increase the throughput. A Qualcomm Atheros QCA9558 based
system with one ethernet and an ath9k wifi 3x3 in HT40 mode was used.
Cables from the AP to the wifi station were used to reduce interference
problems during the tests.
The wlan interface was put in one bridge interface called br-wlan. This
bridge usually contains some more wlan interfaces. The eth0 was put in a
second bridge called br-lan. This usually contains some other privileged
wlan or mesh interfaces. Routing was added between br-lan and br-wlan.
Three kernels were tested:
* (default) OpenWrt kernel for this device
* (brfilter-global) OpenWrt kernel with CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER=y
* (brfilter-local) OpenWrt kernel with CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER=y and
without 644-bridge_optimize_netfilter_hooks.patch
The changes to the the netfilter settings of the bridge were done via:
* (brfilter-global) /sbin/sysctl -w net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables=1
* (brfilter-lobal) echo 1 > /sys/class/net/br-lan/bridge/nf_call_iptables
and/or echo 1 > /sys/class/net/br-wan/bridge/nf_call_iptables
A station connected to the wlan0 (AP) interface was used to send traffic to
a PC connected via ethernet. iperf with 3 concurrent transmissions was used
to generate the traffic.

It can be seen that the patch doesn't eliminate the overhead. It can also
be seen that the throughput of brfilter-global and brfilter-local with
disabled filtering is the roughly the same. Also the throughput for
brfilter-global and brfilter-local for enabled filtering on all bridges is
roughly the same.
But also the brfilter-local throughput is higher when only br-lan requires
the filtering. This setting would not be possible with
644-bridge_optimize_netfilter_hooks.patch applied and thus can only be
compared with brfilter-global and filtering enabled for all interfaces.

It was corrupted in r38528. The most obvious symptom is repeated messages like this:

Currently, multicast packets from an STA are sent to any according
multicast listener directly through the bridge multicast-to-unicast
feature. Unfortunately, so far this includes the originating STA, too,
resulting in multicast packets being echo'ed back to the originating STA
if it itself is a multicast listener for that group.
This behaviour breaks IPv6 duplicate address detection: An IPv6 Neighbor
Solicitation for IPv6 Duplicate Address Detection is being echo'ed back,
resulting in the host falsely detecting an address collision, which
makes the node unable to claim an IPv6 address and use IPv6 in general.
Mac80211 unfortunately only prevents the echoes for us for multicast
frames. For the multicast frames cast to a unicast destination we'll
need to take care of excluding the originator ourselves.

Support for lantiq_svip_be has been removed a while ago, so EASY33016
images weren't buildable anymore. Remove the recipes as well as gzip
compressed kernel support, as EASY33016 was the last user of it.
