[WARNING]: This thread is only for feedback on this beta release for developers and the community's benefit.
DO NOT flash this beta release unless you understand the risks involved and specific device recovery methods.
Avoid discussions! Create threads for questions, general problems or use search; this thread is not for support.
Please list router model & revision, operating & wireless mode(s) and exact filename/firmware image flashed.
Notes:
• CVE-2019-14899 VPN fix (applicability depends on VPN setup) and GUI toggle. 6920, 6928, 6931, 6932 (WIP 7040)
• In-kernel Samba has been implemented this year and default min/max versions have changed 6954, 6957, with WSD support.
• VAP issue is fixed! For any Wireless Mode, create a VAP and both ath0/ath1 should now function properly.
• Local DNS option removed from Services->DNSMasq in changesets 43080 and 43081; ref: #7092
• DHCP and DNS help (English) updated in 43083; ref: #7091
• WireGuard 1.0.20200712: PBR, Kill Switch, Inbound Firewall, Naming of Peers, Status, Key, Guides. Thanks egc!
Issues:
• There may be remaining issues for Samba (for example NTFS), with frequent updates.
Important:
• If reporting issues provide applicable info: 'dmesg', 'cat /tmp/var/log/messages', syslog/serial output, strace etc.
• For firewall issues provide 'iptables -L', 'iptables -t nat -L' and the /tmp/.ipt file.
• Search existing SVN tickets before opening a new one. Before reporting, reset and manually setup (no nvram backup).
• Be sure to include operating and wireless modes (Gateway, AP, CB, etc.) along with relevant configuration information.

Upgraded 3200acm from 23 July build, and 32x from 32 July build.
3200ACM had to re-setup the password for one of the wireless networks, after that all good, no issues.
32x still has the 50% load issue (with close to 0% cpu usage). _________________ Router: Linksys WRT3200ACM WLAN0 and 1 have same SSID

Just upgraded to 44048 after running 43471 for the last 44 days without issues. All upgrades were done via GUI over Safari.
Issues: None so far. Uptime is 20 minutes - i'll report back if any issues develop. Throughput, latency, buffer-bloat all are about the same as with 43471 - excellent.
Wireguard client: Using Mullvad client config following parts of Hellakenut's "idiots guide for commercial clients" and egc's updated guide to eliminate the startup script.

32x still has the 50% load issue (with close to 0% cpu usage).
Could you please provide more details? (e.g., where are you seeing that load, and what is your configuration)
From the previous build (r43904) until today, my WRT32X shows a 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 load average. There is the expected load spike right after rebooting the system (or flashing a new build), but it all goes back to normal as expected. Clearly there is some other factor at play, hence why you should provide more details (i.e., if BS cannot reproduce the bug then he cannot fix it).

Gladly. I've attached a picture of the GUI and the top command output showing where the load is present as such, and I will provide a dump as well.
Edit: The suggestion about disabling the ATH2 via command line doesn't work, this build doesn't show it. _________________ Router: Linksys WRT3200ACM WLAN0 and 1 have same SSID

What fixed this for me (nic 100%) was go down an older version (oct 2019 or before) where you can see ath2 in the GUI. Disable it. Then upgrade to a newer firmware.
I suspect if you ssh into the router and disable the ath2 interface that would fix it as well.

This might be the solution. I will give this a shot. I initially left all interfaces on, because on certain builds, having some of them off would cause a massive upgrade/install crash.
The current build also doesn't really see the interface so it can't be shut off, and knowing how the drivers are touchy and proprietary that's the way to go. Thanks for the suggestion. _________________ Router: Linksys WRT3200ACM WLAN0 and 1 have same SSID

"nvram erase && reboot" from command line Telnet or SSH.
I have installed from scratch a couple of times after even erasing NVRAM and it still came back.
I'll try that first though (since I have to lose all settings anyways) and report back before going back to a 2019 build.
Edit 1: I tried the reset from GUI, reset via button, nvram reset and reboot and the 50% load issue persists on this build. I'm installing a 2019 build and seeing how that fares by disabling the third interface before upgrading to the latest.
Edit 2: Tried build 30 October 2019, load at regular levels. Reset everything, disabled Ath2 and upgraded to this build, 50% load issue showed up.
Reset everything and went back to 30 October 2019 build, left it on, upgraded to latest without resetting settings, then with resetting settings and both had the 50% load issue, I'm guessing I'm staying with that build on the WRT32x, that router is a lemon even though it's supposed to be identical to the 3200acm.
Edit 3: Ended up with build DD-WRT v3.0-r41686 std (12/10/19) due to httpd issues on that other one, but this one doesn't have the load issue on the 32X _________________ Router: Linksys WRT3200ACM WLAN0 and 1 have same SSID

Just to provide another datapoint, my WRT32X was "dirty flashed" throughout at least a year, and it did have the ath2 disabled in an older build. Furthermore, my wireless tab in the web interface still shows the ath2 interface, but that device is unavailable in the Linux command line. Can't really play with the router because it's in active use, but (so far) the findings in this thread about the ath2 interface are matching my running configuration.

What does any of this mean? Problems with this build or others? If the latter, why report here? Those two minutes of log errors were just there? Or did you do something to trigger them? "More stable" vs "work is impossible"? Huh?
Looking back, you've reported major samba issues so many times in new-build threads recently, with those problems really different and more severe than others have reported, that perhaps you need to start a thread on them and see if any useful advice on things to explore in the config and network setup can be conjured up from the community. If not, then maybe that discussion would lead to some notion of what to report in a ticket.

Your comments are fair, I'm trying to get better.
Since SAMBA has been updated, I've really had problems. Every time I experience a new build, but I return to r42054. I carefully follow the messages on the forum and read the tips, in particular tried this:
https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=1212244#1212244 (Tried other protocols, the result does not change.)
There's a phrase:

I gather that Samba issues in recent builds is due to a move a small number of months ago to Samba code embedded in the linux kernel. It's taken a while to get the kinks out. Maybe some are still in there.
That's why I report problems in the thread so that developers can see them, and wait patiently.
Each build contains a message:

I tried to change the markings of the discs, but it didn't help me either.
I'm not doing anything out of the ordinary. I work on a laptop connected by LAN. If necessary, I turn off the wire and switch to Wi-Fi, that's where it all starts.
I'm trying to do it specifically now for the test. Preliminarily reset the reset button and reintroduced all settings.
Router restarted and wrote this text; Connection - LAN.
As soon as LAN was disabled, my PC lost its network drive. After a few seconds, the drive became available and I made an attempt to copy the file on the PC. Copying failed, here's what appeared in the log:
