Sultan Alsawaf 97213c7335 mac80211: parse the correct set of HE capabilities for AP mode 
It is common for 802.11ax NICs to support more than just AP mode, which
results in there being a distinct set of HE capabilities for each mode. As
(bad) luck would have it, iw prints out info for each HE mode in sequential
order according to `enum nl80211_iftype`, and AP mode isn't always first.

As a result, the wrong set of HE capabilities can be parsed if an AP NIC
supports station (managed) mode or any other mode preceding AP mode, since
only the first set of HE capabilities printed by iw is parsed from awk's
output.

This has a noticeable impact on beamforming for example, since managed mode
usually doesn't have beamformer capabilities enabled, while AP mode does.
Hostapd won't be set up with the configs to enable beamformer capabilities
in this scenario, causing hostapd to disable beamforming to HE stations
even when it's supported by the AP.

Always parse the correct set of HE capabilities for AP mode to fix this.
This is achieved by trimming all of iw's output prior to the AP mode
capabilities, which ensures that the first set of HE capabilities are
always for AP mode.

OpenWrt logo

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!

Development

To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or MacOSX 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 python3.6+ rsync subversion unzip which

Quickstart

  1. Run ./scripts/feeds update -a to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default

  2. Run ./scripts/feeds install -a to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/

  3. Run make menuconfig to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages.

  4. 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.

Related Repositories

The main repository uses multiple sub-repositories to manage packages of different categories. All packages are installed via the OpenWrt package manager called opkg. If you're looking to develop the web interface or port packages to OpenWrt, please find the fitting repository below.

  • LuCI Web Interface: Modern and modular interface to control the device via a web browser.

  • OpenWrt Packages: Community repository of ported packages.

  • OpenWrt Routing: Packages specifically focused on (mesh) routing.

  • OpenWrt Video: Packages specifically focused on display servers and clients (Xorg and Wayland).
