.. [#kernelpartition_too_small]
|
||
|
|
The kernel partition on this device is too small to build a working image.

Major changes
|
||
|
|
-------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
OpenWrt 19.07
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Gluon v2020.1 is the first release to use OpenWrt 19.07. All targets
|
||
|
|
therefore use Linux 4.14.166.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
batman-adv compat v14 removal
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Support for the long deprecated compat 14 version of batman-adv has been
|
||
|
|
dropped. Communities still using this version should migrate to batman-adv
|
||
|
|
using the scheduled domain switch.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
IBSS wireless mesh removal
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Support for the IBSS wireless protocol has been dropped. Communities
|
||
|
|
still using IBSS are suggested to migrate to 802.11s using the scheduled
|
||
|
|
domain switch.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Performance enhancements
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We install zram-swap by default on ``ar71xx`` devices with 8MB of flash
|
||
|
|
and 32MB of RAM.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Renamed targets
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The ``ipq40xx`` target was renamed to ``ipq40xx-generic``.
|
||
|
|
- The ``ipq806x`` target was renamed to ``ipq806x-generic``.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Status Page
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Gateway nexthop information has been added to the statuspage when batman-adv
|
||
|
|
is used. This includes its MAC address and prettyname as well as the interface
|
||
|
|
name towards the selected gateway.
|
||
|
|
- The site name has been added to the statuspage. If the node is in a multidomain
|
||
|
|
setup it will also show the domain name.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DECT button to enter config mode
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Many AVM devices don't feature a separate RESET/WPS button, therefore
|
||
|
|
starting this release we support entering the config mode via DECT buttons.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
X86 partition size
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The x86 partition size has been reduced to fit on disks with a capacity of 128 MB.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bugfixes
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Autoupdater aliases
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We have added several new aliases for autoupdater compatibility on
|
||
|
|
the following devices:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Ubiquiti UniFi AC LR
|
||
|
|
- Raspberry Pi
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Site changes
|
||
|
|
------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
site.mk
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The ``GLUON_WLAN_MESH`` variable can be dropped, as 802.11s is
|
||
|
|
the only supported wireless transport from now on.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Internals
|
||
|
|
---------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Linting Targets
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Support for linter make targets was added.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- ``make lint``
|
||
|
|
- ``make lint-sh`` to only check shell scripts
|
||
|
|
- ``make lint-lua`` to only check lua scripts
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
These require the shellcheck and luacheck tools. The docker image has
|
||
|
|
been updated accordingly.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Continuous integration
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We have implemented continuous integration testing using Jenkins and thereby
|
||
|
|
ensure that all lua and shell scripts are linted, that the documentation
|
||
|
|
still builds and warnings are highlighted, and that Gluon still
|
||
|
|
compiles, by testing a build on the ``x86_64`` target. We expect this to
|
||
|
|
significantly improve the feedback cycle and quality of contributions.
