ffac-mt7915-hotfix | ||
============= | ||
|
||
This script reboots the device if the mt7915-firmware hangs on ramips-mt7621 | ||
and mediatek-filogic. It's meant as a hotfix for the mcu timeout issue: | ||
https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/3154 | ||
The issue popped up with Gluon v2023.2, earlier releases are not affected. | ||
|
||
Create a file `modules` with the following content in your `./gluon/site/` | ||
directory and add these lines: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
GLUON_SITE_FEEDS="community" | ||
PACKAGES_COMMUNITY_REPO=https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/community-packages.git | ||
PACKAGES_COMMUNITY_COMMIT=*/missing/* | ||
PACKAGES_COMMUNITY_BRANCH=master | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Now you can add the package `ffac-mt7915-hotfix` to your site.mk | ||
(`*/missing/*` has to be replaced by the github-commit-ID of the version you | ||
want to use, you have to pick it manually.) | ||
|
||
Further info on the issue this tries to prevent from happening: | ||
I've seen the MCU timeout issue happening as early as 16 hours of uptime. | ||
MCU timeouts result in WiFi not working. WiFi mesh nodes running into the | ||
issue go offline until they are rebooted manually while any wired node is | ||
still accessible via ssh. | ||
|
||
On most devices it will take days or weeks for this issue to manifest, | ||
while others are affected daily. This is due to the difference in clients | ||
that are connecting to it on a frequent base. The more people frequent | ||
the device the more probable it is to go offline. | ||
|
