The trunk version of mac80211 doesn't need these dependencies anymore as
they are compiled into the kernel.
While this didn't cause any issues for Gluon as we always build the kernel
with all modules, this fix makes the patch work on a plain OpenWrt CC as
well.
Is makes sense to always look for both ibss_radio* and mesh_radio* sections
to determine if the meshing should be enabled when regenerating these
sections. Doing this, the disabled state will survive updates changing the
section name (either updating from pre-2015.2 while keeping IBSS, or
changing from IBSS to 11s or vice-versa).
If both ibss_radio* and mesh_radio* sections exist, the disabled state will
be kept correctly for each section, the behaviour is changed only when
creating a section that didn't exist before.
Fixes#549
PKG_FILE_DEPENDS caused the whole site repo to be hashed to determine if
gluon-site needed rebuilding. While this is normally no problem,
alternative build setups sometimes put the Gluon repo inside the site repo,
causing long build times and parallel build failures.
in a layer 2 mesh network, multicast pings cause a lot of traffic in the
network, significantly increasing the 'backgroudn noise' (= Grundrauschen)
and stressing nodes in the network.
this commit blacklists all icmpv4 multicast traffic as well as multicast
icmpv6 echo-requests and node iformation queries. as no application
depending on these types of multicast traffic is known, blacklisting is safe.
This commit basically does two things: it urges users always to use an own
git repository to manage the site configuration, and it removed all
mentions of "communities" from the "Getting started" page, as it was too
Freifunk-specific.
Other documentation pages (especially the site configuration docs) should
probably be adjusted as well.
The Freifunk Münsterland firmware was formerly known as Freifunk Münster firmware - while the URL hasn't changed. In future, there will probably be subdomains with their own files, but for now this is state of the project.
The upstream builds always use LINUX_RELEASE=1. By setting it to 2 we
ensure that our modules are always preferred as long as our kernel version
is at least as high as the upstream one.
I guess this is some copy and paste mistake which makes the example an
invalid site.conf. In my case merging the changes of the example into
our actual site.conf lead to an error because this line was merged to.
gluon-radio-config contained only a single file. The code has been adjusted
to allow creating a Gluon configuration without WLAN support by removing
the wifi24 and wifi5 sections from site.conf.
