  1. Gluon 2016.1.6
  2. ==============
  3. Bugfixes
  4. ~~~~~~~~
  5. * build: fix nodejs host build on Debian Wheezy (`#776 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/776>`_)
  6. * build: fix parallel builds with Make 4.2+
  7. Trying to use ``-j N`` with Make 4.2 would spawn an unlimited number of processes,
  8. eventually leading to memory exhaustion.
  9. * build: fix occasional build failure in libpcap package
  10. * build: don't require hexdump for x86 builds (`#811 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/811>`_)
  11. Trying to build Gluon for x86 on systems without hexdump would silently generate
  12. broken images.
  13. * Add support for DNS servers given by their link-local IPv6 address in Router Advertisements
  14. (`#854 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/854>`_)
  15. * ar71xx-generic: correctly setup LNA GPIOs on CPE210/510 (`#796 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/796>`_)
  16. Improves the reception by about 20dB.
  17. * ar71xx-generic: switch default WAN/LAN assignment on Ubiquiti UAP Pro
  18. (`#764 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/764>`_)
  19. Switch to the usual "PoE is WAN/setup mode, secondary is LAN" scheme. This only affects
  20. new installations; the assignment won't be changed on updates unless the configuration is
  21. reset.
  22. * ar71xx-generic: fix ath10k memory leak (`#690 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/690>`_)
  23. * ar71xx-generic: add support for new TP-Link region codes
  24. (`#860 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/860>`_)
  25. TP-Link has started providing US- and EU-specific firmwares for the Archer C7 v2. To generate
  26. Gluon images installable from these new firmwares, the ``GLUON_REGION`` variable must be set
  27. to ``eu`` or ``us`` in ``site.mk`` or on the ``make`` command line (the images will still be
  28. installable from all old firmwares without region codes).
  29. Known Issues
  30. ~~~~~~~~~~~~
  31. * Default TX power on many Ubiquiti devices is too high, correct offsets are unknown (`#94 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/94>`_)
  32. Reducing the TX power in the Expert Mode is recommended.
  33. * The MAC address of the WAN interface is modified even when Mesh-on-WAN is disabled (`#496 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/496>`_)
  34. This may lead to issues in environments where a fixed MAC address is expected (like VMware when promicious mode is disallowed).
  35. * Inconsistent respondd API (`#522 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/522>`_)
  36. The current API is inconsistent and will be replaced eventually. The old API will still be supported for a while.
