Iomega Storcenter ix4-200d is a four-bay SATA NAS powered by a Marvell Kirkwood SoC clocked at 1.2GHz. It has 512MB of RAM and 32MB of flash memory, 3x USB 2.0 and 2x 1Gbit/s NIC Specification: - SoC: Marvell Kirkwood 88F6281 - CPU/Speed: 1200Mhz - Flash size: 32 MiB - RAM: 512MB - LAN: 2x 1Gbit/s - 3x USB 2.0 Notes: - The blue drive LED is triggered by HDD activity, it can not be controlled via GPIO. - The LCD screen requires proprietary code and does not function at this time. - Due to a kernel-related issue with the Marvell 88SE6121 SATA controller, currently only trays numbered #3 and #4 work, #1 and #2 do not.

Connect to the router using an ethernet cable 2 Spin up a TFTP server serving the sysupgrade file 3. Open the case and attach a UART 4.

Disabled services should be kept disabled after sysupgrade. This can be easily handled using a proper uci-defaults script.

QSDK NSS builds utilize skbuff recycling for better handling of memory.
On a Dynalink DL-WRX36 (pbuf script should be set to 'auto') a significant drop in
memory usage was observed as well consistent sustained RX/TX speeds.
BEFORE:
echo 3 >! /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
free -m
total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 867 338 547 90 101 528
Swap: 0 0 0
AFTER:

Mem: 867 242 594 1 81 624
Swap: 0 0 0
NOTE:
For 512MB platforms, users need to test with the following scenarios,
as the patch `999-233-ath11k-Disable-rx_header-tlv-for-2K-SKB.patch` is
really only testable on platforms with 512M or less RAM.
1.) Explicitly setting 'ATH11K_MEM_PROFILE_512M' on and see if system
crashes on boot.
2.) Explicitly setting 'ATH11K_MEM_PROFILE_1G'
3.) Remove patches
999-233-ath11k-Disable-rx_header-tlv-for-2K-SKB.patch
999-311-ath11k-configure-nss-thread-priority-during-pdev_ini.patch
And re-test with #1 and #2
It was incorrectly assumed that setting a 512M for 1G platforms would save
memory, instead it needs to be explicitly set to know proper memory
regions, otherwise it would cause fw crash.

Currently BCCA counter is updated to FW via csa counter offs and
beacon with new countdown is updated for every beacon tx completion event.
For EMA, all EMA beacons are updated in one shot, and counter update for
every tx event will mess up the actual sequence of countdown sent over the air.
Allow FW to update the countdown till 1 and finalize the color
change.

QSDK NSS builds utilize skbuff recycling for better handling of memory.
On a Dynalink DL-WRX36 (pbuf script should be set to 'auto') a significant drop in

ath11k_nss: Fix BCCA counter for EMA
Currently BCCA counter is updated to FW via csa counter offs and
beacon with new countdown is updated for every beacon tx completion event.
For EMA, all EMA beacons are updated in one shot, and counter update for
every tx event will mess up the actual sequence of countdown sent over the air.
Allow FW to update the countdown till 1 and finalize the color
change.

QSDK NSS builds utilize skbuff recycling for better handling of memory.
On a Dynalink DL-WRX36 (pbuf script should be set to 'auto') a significant drop in
memory usage was observed as well consistent sustained RX/TX speeds.

every tx event will mess up the actual sequence of countdown sent over the air.
Allow FW to update the countdown till 1 and finalize the color
change.

QSDK NSS builds utilize skbuff recycling for better handling of memory.
On a Dynalink DL-WRX36 (pbuf script should be set to 'auto') a significant drop in
memory usage was observed as well consistent sustained RX/TX speeds.

Currently BCCA counter is updated to FW via csa counter offs and
beacon with new countdown is updated for every beacon tx completion event.
For EMA, all EMA beacons are updated in one shot, and counter update for
every tx event will mess up the actual sequence of countdown sent over the air.
Allow FW to update the countdown till 1 and finalize the color
change.

QSDK NSS builds utilize skbuff recycling for better handling of memory.
On a Dynalink DL-WRX36 (pbuf script should be set to 'auto') a significant drop in
memory usage was observed as well consistent sustained RX/TX speeds.

QSDK NSS builds utilize skbuff recycling for better handling of memory. On a Dynalink DL-WRX36 (pbuf script should be set to 'auto') a significant drop in memory usage was observed as well consistent sustained RX/TX speeds. BEFORE: echo 3 >! /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches free -m total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 867 338 547 90 101 528 Swap: 0 0 0 AFTER: total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 867 242 594 1 81 624 Swap: 0 0 0 NOTE: For 512MB platforms, users need to test with the following scenarios, as the patch `999-233-ath11k-Disable-rx_header-tlv-for-2K-SKB.patch` is really only testable on platforms with 512M or less RAM. 1.) Explicitly setting 'ATH11K_MEM_PROFILE_512M' on and see if system crashes on boot. 2.) Explicitly setting 'ATH11K_MEM_PROFILE_1G' 3.) Remove patches 999-233-ath11k-Disable-rx_header-tlv-for-2K-SKB.patch 999-311-ath11k-configure-nss-thread-priority-during-pdev_ini.patch And re-test with #1 and #2 It was incorrectly assumed that setting a 512M for 1G platforms would save memory, instead it needs to be explicitly set to know proper memory regions, otherwise it would cause fw crash.
