Thank you for pointing out the details of the DTS changes and CPU performance. Originally I was trying to achieve the smallest backport, but in hindsight, it makes far more sense to avoid frankensteining with partial changes. I appreciate your patience and advice! Meanwhile, until PR #4192 can be reviewed/merged to master (so there's commits to actually backport), I've thrown together a rough draft of what changes would need backported: https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/compare/openwrt-21.02...digitalcircuit:openwrt-21.02-cpufreq-dtsivolt-cache Cherry-pick of existing DTS changes and commits in PR #4192: https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/4192 [NOTE: I might be missing commits!] This isn't a real backport, it's just so I can try out these changes right now. So far, it builds and runs, and I've started the first seven-hour SFTP backup test as described in FS#3099. If there's anything I'm overlooking, or anything else I could try that would be helpful, let me know! No disrespect meant, either. I realize the scope of these changes means this might need to wait for 21.02.1, and meanwhile I'm happy to continue making and testing custom builds. _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
