This updates mac80211 to backports version 5.10-rc6. This is currently only the test version, I will release official versions of backports in the next days and then update these patches.Kernel 5.10 should be an LTS kernel so we will get updates for it the next 5 years, I would prefer to use backports based on this version in our next release. Please test this and report error to me. The changes are also in my stating tree: https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/staging/hauke.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/mac80211-5.10 Hauke Mehrtens (4): mac80211: Update to version 5.8.18-test2 mac80211: Update to version 5.9.11-test3 mac80211: Update to version 5.10-rc6-test5 iw: Update to version 5.9
Hi,I haven't received a bug report so far, so this looks good or nobody tried this. ;-)
We deiced to not merge this into master before branching as the current version based on Linux 5.8 is pretty stable and got a lot of testing. We plan to merge this into master after branching, then it gets testing in master and we will backport this into a minor stable release later to be able to provide security updates for the wireless drivers.
The kernel 5.8 does not get any security updates any more and we do not have the manpower to maintain this on our own.
A more recent version of these patches is available here: https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/staging/hauke.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/mac80211-5.10This uses the official backports binaries, I will rebase and update this form time to time.
