Gluon 2018.2.4
==============
End of life
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This will be the final release of the v2018.2.x series. Updating to the v2019.1.x release series is the recommended course of action, which should be fairly easy.
Bugfixes
~~~~~~~~
* Fixes device alias for Ubiquiti UniFi AC LR. (`#1834 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1834>`_)
Autoupdates on this model were impossible before, since we were missing the proper device alias.
* Add correct ath10k firmware package for OCEDO Koala. (`#1838 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/pull/1838>`_)
* Fixes various batman-adv bugs with backports from 2019.4 and 2019.5 by updating the openwrt-routing packages feed
Other changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Linux kernel has been updated to either
- 4.9.207 (ar71xx, brcm2708, mpc85xx) or
- 4.14.160 (ipq40xx, ipq806x, mvebu, ramips, sunxi, x86).
Known issues
~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Default TX power on many Ubiquiti devices is too high, correct offsets are
unknown (`#94 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/94>`_)
Reducing the TX power in the Advanced Settings is recommended.
* 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>`_)
This may lead to issues in environments where a fixed MAC address is expected
(like VMware when promiscuous mode is disallowed).
* Inconsistent respondd API
(`#522 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/522>`_)
The current API is inconsistent and will be replaced eventually. The old API
will still be supported for a while.
* Frequent reboots due to out-of-memory or high load due to memory pressure on
weak hardware especially in larger meshes
(`#1243 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1243>`_)
Optimizations in Gluon 2018.1 have significantly improved memory usage.
There are still known bugs leading to unreasonably high load that we hope to
solve in future releases.
