I do not know, I have made it optional with the CONFIG_IPSET parameter in the .config file when compiling (anticipating that lower specced routers will not get it, it adds about 24kB for the ipset utility, the kernel modules and the DNSMasq ipset extension).
Problem is BS is not using the publicly available .config files (or maybe he does but also adds some private stuff) so it is not easy to tell.
If you are running a build post 44366 (so if you use the latest 44406 build) you can check from command line:
root@R7800-2:~# which ipset
/usr/sbin/ipset
root@R7800-2:~#
It is on my list to write some documentation but I am rather busy at the moment.
It is a really neat feature:

Using and handling large sets of IP’s which are acquired for a domain can be useful for handling url’s which have many ip addresses hidden under one URL (the large companies, like Facebook, Netflix, amazon etc), it can be useful for efficiently handling of dynamic ad blocking white and black listing etc.

as egc said you'd need some resources...8GB is you attached USB drive, but not the internal stuff...
in fact DDWRT on the high grade routers, can do most of the things pi-hole can do about routing and networks...so what do you need...well we have to exclude the fancy stuff, like graphs and advanced monitoring and so..
By the design, routers are simple devices that can do routing, networks and some other not very advanced stuff...while Pi's are portable computers, so not much point to move computer into router environment...more likely to move router to computer environment like DDWRT on x86/x64 as simple as that... _________________ Atheros

So... I built an X86 router.... and the only SSD I had laying around was a 250GB SATA drive.... I still haven't found a good use for the extra 248GB. I agree routers should be simple dedicated devices, and I use mine as such. It does everything veeerrryy nicely.
You say DD-WRT can do most of the things PiHole can do, the only option I see is Privoxy. I don't want to pay for some subcription DNS service to do DNS-based adblocking.
It should also be said PiHole seems to be quite well made, so credit where credit is due (DD-WRT is still king of course). _________________ Google is Spyware

I briefly looked at pi-hole's implementation. A raspberry pi is connected to the router and its IP address is used as the DNS server.
So, Pi-Hole acts as a DNS for the sake of adblocking? I guess it's a piece of software, and it pulls from their own IP list? Does it work in conjunction with existing DNS servers or do the PiHole people have their own full fledged DNS server, or does the Pi-Hole implementation on the raspberry pi have its own DNS server that allows you to specify which server you want to pull from, and conduct filtering based on a blacklist that PiHole maintains?
Alozaros, I see the script you posted. Is this unix that you just run as commands on the router? Seriously what language is this?
egc, I will look at some of the light reading you posted, thank you. _________________ Google is Spyware

the idea of Pi-hole as a DNS, means its taking over the DNS requests completely, so the router forwards those requests there and receives the replys from there....
on the Pi-hole you can do, some ad-blocking and DNS advanced statistics and some graphs....
nope, its not a unix script as DDWRT is a linux 😜 is a bash (shell)script _________________ Atheros

So Pi-Hole is just a DNS server with filtering and other more user-directed functions?
I thought linux is based on unix? What's a shell anyway... How can you have a shell script... _________________ Google is Spyware
