Gluon 2016.2.1
==============
Added hardware support
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ar71xx-generic
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* TP-Link
- TL-WA901ND v4
Bugfixes
~~~~~~~~
* Make status page work with disabled cookies/local storage
(`#912 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/pull/912>`_)
* Update kernel to 3.18.44
Fixes CVE-2016-5195 and CVE-2016-7117. It is unlikely that these issues pose
a threat to usual Gluon setups, but installing additional packages may make a
system vulnerable. In any case, updating is highly recommended.
* Downgrade mac80211 to an earlier state
Unfortunately, a mac80211 update that was done shortly before the release of
Gluon v2016.2 (that seemed necessary to properly support ath10k devices) had
again caused severe ath9k stability issues that remained unreported until v2016.2
was out.
We have now reverted mac80211 to an earlier state that was reported to be very
stable (while keeping the ath10k-specific changes); in addition, some patches
that were reported to cause connection or performance issues with certain clients
have been reverted. While is it still not perfectly stable, is should be at least
as good as (and probably better than) the v2016.1.x release series.
