1.) Changed logic of `set_affinity` to now use physical cores rather than knowing the bitmask. Rather than having to know a bitmask, users can provide a numerical instance of one or more CPU cores (numbered 0-63). This is done via function `cpus_to_bitmask`. Functions Added: a.) bitmask_to_cpus - Takes a bitmask of CPUs and returns a list of CPU numbers. (i.e. `bitmask_to_cpus "f"` -> 0,1,2,3) b.) cpus_to_bitmask - Takes a comma/space or range list of CPUs and returns a bitmask. Example: `cpus_to_bitmask "2,3"` -> c `cpus_to_bitmask "0,1,2,3"` -> f `cpus_to_bitmask "1,3"` -> a With or without quotes `cpus_to_bitmask "1 3"` -> a `cpus_to_bitmask 1 3` -> a 2.) Added UCI options: enable - to enable/disable the script from running. [default 1 (on)] enable_log - to enable/disable logging output to `logger`.[default 1 (on)] Log output: ``` Mon Apr 8 23:00:01 2024 user.notice smp_affinity: Pinning IRQ(87) reo2host-destination-ring1 to CPU 0 Mon Apr 8 23:00:01 2024 user.notice smp_affinity: Pinning IRQ(88) reo2host-destination-ring2 to CPU 1 Mon Apr 8 23:00:01 2024 user.notice smp_affinity: Pinning IRQ(89) reo2host-destination-ring3 to CPU 2 Mon Apr 8 23:00:01 2024 user.notice smp_affinity: Pinning IRQ(90) reo2host-destination-ring4 to CPU 3 Mon Apr 8 23:00:01 2024 user.notice smp_affinity: Pinning IRQ(79) wbm2host-tx-completions-ring1 to CPU 1 Mon Apr 8 23:00:01 2024 user.notice smp_affinity: Pinning IRQ(83) wbm2host-tx-completions-ring2 to CPU 2 Mon Apr 8 23:00:01 2024 user.notice smp_affinity: Pinning IRQ(85) wbm2host-tx-completions-ring3 to CPU 3 Mon Apr 8 23:00:01 2024 user.notice smp_affinity: Pinning IRQ(73) ppdu-end-interrupts-mac1 to CPU 1 Mon Apr 8 23:00:01 2024 user.notice smp_affinity: Pinning IRQ(77) ppdu-end-interrupts-mac2 to CPU 2 Mon Apr 8 23:00:01 2024 user.notice smp_affinity: Pinning IRQ(75) ppdu-end-interrupts-mac3 to CPU 3 Mon Apr 8 23:00:01 2024 user.notice smp_affinity: Pinning IRQ(32) edma_txcmpl to CPU 3 Mon Apr 8 23:00:01 2024 user.notice smp_affinity: Pinning IRQ(33) edma_rxfill to CPU 3 Mon Apr 8 23:00:01 2024 user.notice smp_affinity: Pinning IRQ(35) edma_rxdesc to CPU 3 Mon Apr 8 23:00:01 2024 user.notice smp_affinity: Pinning IRQ(36) edma_misc to CPU 3 ``` Output of `/proc/interrupts`: ``` 69: 0 0 0 0 GIC-0 209 Edge rxdma2host-destination-ring-mac1 70: 0 0 0 0 GIC-0 211 Edge rxdma2host-destination-ring-mac3 71: 0 0 0 0 GIC-0 210 Edge rxdma2host-destination-ring-mac2 72: 2435 0 0 0 GIC-0 321 Edge reo2host-status 73: 268427 8011 0 0 GIC-0 261 Edge ppdu-end-interrupts-mac1 74: 2 0 0 0 GIC-0 255 Edge rxdma2host-monitor-status-ring-mac1 75: 176169 0 4 10035 GIC-0 263 Edge ppdu-end-interrupts-mac3 76: 2 0 0 0 GIC-0 260 Edge rxdma2host-monitor-status-ring-mac3 77: 0 0 0 0 GIC-0 262 Edge ppdu-end-interrupts-mac2 78: 0 0 0 0 GIC-0 256 Edge rxdma2host-monitor-status-ring-mac2 79: 3428 3123 0 0 GIC-0 189 Edge wbm2host-tx-completions-ring1 80: 0 0 0 0 GIC-0 323 Edge reo2ost-exception 81: 178 0 0 0 GIC-0 322 Edge wbm2host-rx-release 82: 0 0 0 0 GIC-0 212 Edge host2rxdma-host-buf-ring-mac1 83: 6524 0 13712 0 GIC-0 190 Edge wbm2host-tx-completions-ring2 84: 4 0 0 0 GIC-0 235 Edge host2rxdma-host-buf-ring-mac3 85: 560 0 0 1979 GIC-0 191 Edge wbm2host-tx-completions-ring3 86: 0 0 0 0 GIC-0 215 Edge host2rxdma-host-buf-ring-mac2 87: 4520 0 0 0 GIC-0 267 Edge reo2host-destination-ring1 88: 2231 2811 0 0 GIC-0 268 Edge reo2host-destination-ring2 89: 2180 0 2512 0 GIC-0 271 Edge reo2host-destination-ring3 90: 1990 0 0 2321 GIC-0 320 Edge reo2host-destination-ring4 ``` 3.)

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.
Sunshine!
Download
Built firmware images are available for many architectures and come with a package selection to be used as WiFi home router. To quickly find a factory image usable to migrate from a vendor stock firmware to OpenWrt, try the Firmware Selector.
If your device is supported, please follow the Info link to see install instructions or consult the support resources listed below.
An advanced user may require additional or specific package. (Toolchain, SDK, ...) For everything else than simple firmware download, try the wiki download page:
Development
To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or macOS system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.
Requirements
You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.
binutils bzip2 diff find flex gawk gcc-6+ getopt grep install libc-dev libz-dev
make4.1+ perl python3.7+ rsync subversion unzip which
Quickstart
-
Run
./scripts/feeds update -a
to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default -
Run
./scripts/feeds install -a
to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/ -
Run
make menuconfig
to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages. -
Run
make
to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.
