I figure there should be no inter-dependencies there, but the side-effect of the new dnsmasq is pretty serious.
I did not install .6, I only performed an opkg update of the dnamasq package itself. So kernal is the same in my case. But others running a full .6 build report similar QoS issues. I regressed back to .4 and all is good on the QoS front, waiting until a new drop of dnsmasq before trying again. - Jonathan > On Jan 22, 2021, at 4:15 PM, Toke Høiland-Jørgensen <t...@toke.dk> wrote: > > Jonathan Foulkes <j...@jonathanfoulkes.com> writes: > >> I installed the updated package on a 19.07.4 box running cake, and QoS >> performance went down the tubes. >> Last night it locked up completely while attempting to stream. >> >> See the PingPlots others have posted to this forum thread, mine look >> similar, went from constant sub 50ms to very spiky, then some loss, loss >> increasing, and if high traffic, lock-up. >> https://forum.openwrt.org/t/security-advisory-2021-01-19-1-dnsmasq-multiple-vulnerabilities/85903/39 >> >> load is low, sirq is low, so box does not seem stressed. >> >> Any reason Cake would be sensitive to a dnsmasq bug? > > No, not really.
