This build thread is for reporting successes and problem with loading this experimental test build. This is important info for developers and users. Always state your hardware and SPECIFIC build (e.g. 29440_NEWD-2_K2.6_mega-nv64k.bin). Do not ask questions about your specific router or how to configure it in this thread; create your own thread to discuss any specific problems you have or need resolved. Please also do not respond to such questions. This thread is to report info, not to seek it. Posts that do not add to understanding this build will be deleted. Make sure you know how to flash properly and the risk before using this build. It is important to adhere to these requirements, to keep this thread from becoming impossibly long and useless. If you don't know what build to flash and how to flash properly and have a means of recovery if things should go wrong, do NOT flash this experimental test build.

Router Model: Netgear R6400

Firmware Version: DD-WRT v3.0-r36070M kongac (05/31/2018)
Kernel Version: Linux 4.4.134 #568 SMP Thu May 31 11:02:32 CEST 2018 armv7l

Upgraded: from DD-WRT v3.0-r36000M kongac (05/24/2018)via ddup --flash-latest
Reset: No not this time

Status: Up and running for 2 hours, basic setup as AP, static leases, OpenVPN client (on PIA) with Policy Based Routing up and running, 2,4GHz, 5Ghz USB storage NAS and miniDLNA working.
OpenVPN server up and running.
GUI is responsive and quick.
I did a quick test with a VAP on 2.4 GHz and it is working (as always a reboot is necessary to get a VAP going)

Errors: Yes
OpenVPN with Policy Based Routing does not forward HTTP(s) traffic to the PBR clients with SFE on see: http://svn.dd-wrt.com/ticket/5900
Possible DNS leak see: http://svn.dd-wrt.com/ticket/6020

There is a solution, to the PBR not working with SFE[/b], @Quarkysg has made a patch for the shortcut-fe module (see: http://svn.dd-wrt.com/ticket/5986#comment:17 ).
Please Kong and/or BS have a look.
He also compiled a shortcut-fe.ko module for testing (Arm/Broadcom , Linux 4.4) see: https://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=1107870#1107870 , I am running that shortcut-fe.ko module right now and it is working.

Big Thanks to Kong and BrainSlayer!!

Router: Netgear R8500
Firmware: v3.0-r36070M kongac (05/31/2018)
Kernel: Linux 4.4.134 #568 SMP Thu May 31 11:02:32 CEST 2018 armv7l
Status: Good so far. Uptime 2 hours.
Reset: No (flashed with ddup --flash-latest)
Errors: None so far.

Web GUI is still very sluggish. httpd -S typically idling at 20-30% when not navigating the web interface, then spikes to 50% when loading navigating to new page. 10-15 second delay to load any new page.

EDIT: Web GUI sluggishness appears to be related to Chrome. IE 11 responsiveness is instantaneous - httpd load is negligible. Chrome incognito (no extensions loaded) is also sluggish.

Chrome sluggishness only happens when it doesn't recognize a valid certificate. I noticed the slowdown when I was setting up from scratch and it was using default dd-wrt cert instead of my own cert that is trusted by my network

Errors: Yes - Memory leak with Radio Scheduling

All is ok with my pretty basic configuration.
Only problem is still the memory leak as I reported in previous Kong's test versions - https://svn.dd-wrt.com/ticket/6316. Not a critical issue though.

Thx Kong and BS for the build.

Kernel: Linux 4.4.134 #568 SMP Thu May 31 11:02:32 CEST 2018

update: 35500M (14 days of uptime) --> 36070M
status: operational
reset: no
errors: HTTPS interface is *really* slow to connect. It's consistently stuck at the "establishing secure connecton" message in chromium for a solid 30 seconds.

Subsequent GUI page browsing takes 10-15 sec. If I ssh into the router and watch `top` as I try to browse, the CPU usage is >50% for `httpd -S` while pages try to load.

When I just idle in my browser on a GUI page, `httpd -S` is taking 17-30% of the CPU.

I tried both chromium and firefox both with new profiles. It doesn't matter if I connect from my laptop or another machine on my network. Bug is consistent. Is there a log for httpd I can post to help troubleshoot?

Code:
Mem: 38188K used, 216260K free, 0K shrd, 4748K buff, 12864K cached
CPU: 10.1% usr 19.4% sys  0.0% nic 70.0% idle  0.0% io  0.0% irq  0.3% sirq
Load average: 0.44 0.30 0.12 3/75 1485
  PID  PPID USER     STAT   VSZ %VSZ CPU %CPU COMMAND
 1286     1 root     S     3964  1.5   0 52.6 httpd -S


This is has been happening since 35900M but it only happens with chromium and firefox. If I use epiphany as the browser, everything works fast as expected.

This older thread seems possibly relevant to the httpd cpu issue some are reporting.

I see no memleak, I always let radio scheduling turn off my radio at night and never had an issue.

I had that problem too. Try setting both radios always off and after some hours your router will freeze and not responding.

@Kong,
I see that seems a tricky one to address, as it's not a common issue. I can add that issuing "startservice radio_off_0" (with / without -f parameter) via console or via cron job causes the leak to start on my unit. Not sure what other option I have to schedule radio.

Thanks for any support on this issue - if doable - and for your and BS's work on those builds.

R7000.

This morning, OpenVPN client (PIA provider) link is dead, repeating 'reconnect' loop. Went to Services ... VPN and clicked on Apply Settings, the VPN came alive. I suspect that all builds, if they lose VPN connect for some reason, can get jammed up and won't reconnect. Sometimes just get lucky with some builds that the VPN stays up so the problem doesn't show.
