Gluon 2017.1.5
==============
Added hardware support
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ar71xx-generic
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* TP-Link TL-WR1043N v5
ramips-mt7621
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* Ubiquiti EdgeRouter-X
* Ubiquiti EdgeRouter-X SFP
Bugfixes
~~~~~~~~
* Fix build with empty ``site/modules``
(`#1262 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1262>`_)
* Fix Ethernet stalls at high throughput on certain devices
(`#1101 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1101>`_)
* Update Tunneldigger to support connections with servers running newer kernel
versions (`9ed6ff752eb7 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/commit/9ed6ff752eb7972d90b138197641f12eeb4572fb>`_)
* Fix batman-adv Bridge Loop Avoidance (BLA) with *gluon-ebtables-filter-multicast*
(`#1198 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1198>`_)
Known issues
~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Default TX power on many Ubiquiti devices is too high, correct offsets are unknown (`#94 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/94>`_)
Reducing the TX power in the Advanced Settings is recommended.
* The MAC address of the WAN interface is modified even when Mesh-on-WAN is disabled (`#496 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/496>`_)
This may lead to issues in environments where a fixed MAC address is expected (like VMware when promicious mode is disallowed).
* Inconsistent respondd API (`#522 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/522>`_)
The current API is inconsistent and will be replaced eventually. The old API will still be supported for a while.
* Sporadic segfaults of busybox (ash) when running shell scripts on ar71xx
(`#1157 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1157>`_)
The workaround added in Gluon v2017.1.1 has greatly reduced the frequency of
segfaults, but it did not make them disappear completely.
* Frequent reboots due to out-of-memory on weak hardware in larger meshes
(`#1243 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1243>`_)
