Notes: 1. SFE accelerated NAT is in 33006+ builds but only in kernel 3.10 and newer 2. 'KRACK' vulnerability fixes were completed in r33678 for Broadcom, including k26 (33655) & k24 (33656); use build 33772 or later.
3. Bridge modes on k4.4 devices may sometimes work in some configurations in certain builds but are not supported by the bcmdhd driver. Use client or repeater instead as WDS doesn't work with Broadcom ARM either (see Issues below).
4. Since 39469, udhcpd was removed and replaced with the already present dnsmasq, and PIE qdisc was added for some builds.
5. Policy-Based Routing with SFE enabled was fixed in r39556: 5986 and 5900 6. k2.4 (broadcom/) builds were fixed in 39715 (broken in 39144 through 39654)
Issues, observations, and/or workarounds reported: 1.Trendnet 81*DRU models are missing factory-to-flash 2.DNScrypt is mostly only using v2 protocols now, but requires Golang that DD can't use:6246 3.WDS does not work on Broadcom ARM devices (only MIPS<->MIPS) 4.K2.6 builds are broken since 38253(?); GUI issues:6538 5.VAPs not working at boot; workaround startup command:
sleep 10;stopservice nas;stopservice wlconf;startservice wlconf;startservice nas
This appears to be fixed for some routers (different kernels, modes, and radios) since build 39508.
Important: if any issues are found, please provide log info (GUI syslog, `dmesg`, `cat /var/log/messages`).
Or put into SVN ticket. For firewall issues, also provide "iptables" info (`iptables -L`, `iptables -t nat -L`, & the /tmp/.ipt file).
Template to copy (after "Code:") for posting issues, be sure to include the mode in use (gateway, AP, CB, etc.):

Sitting this one out, too. Only commits that would affect me are for ppp on-demand dailing, which doesn't apply. Folks with Broadcom-MIPS devices may want to check this, though:
Router/Version: Buffalo WZR-1750DHP/DHPD Firmware: DD-WRT v3.0-r39855 std (05/25/19 Kernel: Linux 4.4.180 #92 SMP PREEMPT Sat May 25 07:24:41 CEST 2019 armv7l Previous: BSr39572 Mode/Status: Gateway / WIFI = AP / Seems ok CPU overclocked to 1400mhz from default 800mhz via r33006 Reset: Yes Issues/Errors: Seems ok UpTime: 1:14m
What i have noticed:-
1) The mysterious load average is now below 50 percent and settles to 1 percent after five minutes. I will be using this build for now.
Router: Buffalo WHR-G54S
File: dd-wrt.v24_mini_generic.bin
Kernel: Firmware: Linux 2.4.37 #53646 Sat May 25 05:55:30 CEST 2019 mips
Mode: AP
Status: 30+ hours, working well
Revived an otherwise comatose (not because of this upgrade) WHR-G54S via tftp to r39855 mini.
So far r39855 mini is working well, including repeater bridging to a neighboring WHR-G54S r38240 mini.
Will be returning to the X4S for my AP, as the r39855 mini has now been proven for 30+ hours.
MOST PECULIAR: First time I do not see an expiration of the WAN DHCP in the Status/WAN tab. Uncertain that this is due to an ISP policy change, however, since a return to my X4S shows a 24 hour renewal.
