Gluon 2019.1.3
==============
Bugfixes
--------
- Fixes a bug in the tunneldigger watchdog where the watchdog would incorrectly find itself while looking up the running tunneldigger process. It then went on and assumed a PID mismatch between the tunneldigger service and its PID file and therefore caused an unnecessary restart of the tunnel. (`#1952 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1952>`_)
- Fixes an oversight in the firewalling of the respondd service where queries from prefix listed in ``extra_prefixes6`` would be dropped. (`#1941 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1941>`_)
- Fixes a bug in ``gluon-web`` where forms would not correctly update their field visibility on reset. This affected, for example, the private wifi page in the config mode. (`#1970 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/pull/1970>`_)
- Fixes RX buffer sizing in the ath10k driver to allow for frames larger than 1528 Bytes. (`#1992 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/pull/1992>`_)
- Fixed handling of mesh interfaces together with outdoor mode, site.conf defaults and config mode (`#2049 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/pull/2049>`_) (`#2054 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/pull/2054>`_)
- Fixes a bug with perl when building Gluon v2019.1.x with GCC10
- Fixes a buffer leak in fastd when receiving invalid packets
Other Changes
-------------
- Linux kernel has been updated to either
- 4.9.237 (ar71xx, brcm2708, mpc85xx) or
- 4.14.199 (ipq40xx, ipq806x, mvebu, ramips, sunxi, x86).
- Backports of batman-adv bugfixes
Known issues
------------
* Out of memory situations with high client count on ath9k.
(`#1768 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1768>`_)
* The integration of the BATMAN_V routing algorithm is incomplete.

- Throughput values are not correctly acquired for different interface types.
(`#1728 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1728>`_)
This affects virtual interface types like bridges and VXLAN.
* 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.

Other changes
-------------
- Linux kernel has been updated to 4.14.176
Internals
---------
- OpenWrt 19.07 introduced the urngd entropy daemon that serves the same function as the haveged service, which we have been recommending. To not have two redundant entropy daemons in this release we remove urngd in favor of haveged in the v2020.1 release series.
Known issues
------------
- High chance of ending in a soft-bricked state for Ubiquiti EdgeRouter-X. Workaround is to
repeat initial installation using the serial console. (`#1937 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1937>`_)

Gluon 2020.1.3
==============
Bugfixes
--------

and multi-threaded operation. (`#2029 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/2029>`_)
- Fixes a regression which led to around 2.5 MiB higher memory usage for ar71xx-tiny and ramips-rt305x targets.
While this decreases the memory usage, the image will become around 64KiB larger. (`#2032 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/2032>`_)
- Fixes a bug which can cause the TP-Link TL-MR3020 v1 to become stuck in failsafe mode.

Gluon 2020.2.1
==============
Added hardware support
----------------------
- Added support for TP-Link CPE210 3.20 (`#2080 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/2080>`_)
Bugfixes
--------
- Fixed handling of *mesh_on_lan* enabled in site configuration (`#2090 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/2090>`_)
- Fixed build issues with lantiq-xrx200 target by removing unsupported DSL modem packages (`#2087 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/pull/2087>`_)
Other changes
-------------
- Linux kernel has been updated to 4.14.193
- Backports of batman-adv bugfixes
Known issues
------------
* Upgrading EdgeRouter-X from versions before v2020.1.x may lead to a soft-bricked state due to bad blocks on the
NAND flash which the NAND driver before this release does not handle well.

Gluon 2020.2.3
==============
Bugfixes
--------

See the OpenWrt advisory at https://openwrt.org/advisory/2021-01-19-1
Other changes
-------------
- Linux kernel has been updated to 4.14.224
- batman-adv fixes were backported from its 2021.0 release
- OpenSSL has been updated to 1.1.1k

Major changes
-------------
Device Classes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Devices are now categorized into device classes. This device class can determine which features
as well as packages are installed on the device when building images.
Currently there are two classes used in Gluon, *tiny* and *standard*. All devices with less than 64M of RAM or
less than 7M of usable firmware space are assigned to the tiny class.
WPA3 support for Private WLAN
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The private WLAN now supports WPA3-SAE key exchange as well as management frame protection (802.11w).
For this to work, the firmware needs to be built with the *wireless-encryption-wpa3* feature.
OWE on Client Network
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gluon now allows to configure a VAP for the client network which supports opportunistic encryption on the
client network for devices which support the OWE security type (also known as Enhanced Open).
This encrypted VAP can be the only available access point or be configured in addition to an unencrypted VAP.
In the latter case, the transition mode can be enabled, which enables compatible devices to automatically
connect to the encrypted VAP while legacy devices continue to use the unencrypted connection.
There are issues with some devices running Android 9 when connecting to a transition mode enabled network. See the site documentation for more information.
SAE Encrypted Mesh Links
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mesh links can now be operated in an encrypted mode using SAE authentication. For this to work, a common shared secret
has to be distributed to all participating nodes using the site.conf.
Responsive status page
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The status page design is now responsive and reflows better on mobile devices.
Primary domain code
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The primary domain code is now visible on the node status page as well as in the respondd information
emitted by the node.
Logging
~~~~~~~
The new *gluon-logging* package allows to configure a remote syslog server using the site.conf.
This package can only be included when *gluon-web-logging* is excluded.
Peer cleanup in fastd
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
fastd peers and groups are now removed on update in case they do not exist in the new site configuration.
To preserve a custom peer across updates, add the *preserve* key to the peer's UCI configuration and set it to ``1``.
Bugfixes
--------
- The WAN MAC address now matches the one defined in OpenWrt if VXLAN is enabled for the selected domain.
- *gluon-reload* now reloads all relevant services.
- Disabling outdoor mode and enabling meshing in the config mode can now be performed in a single step.
- Fixed section visibility with enabled outdoor mode in config mode.
Site changes
------------
site.mk
~~~~~~~
Starting with version 19.07 OpenWrt ships the urngd entropy daemon by default.
It replaces the haveged daemon, for which we removed the support in Gluon. Remove ``haveged`` from your package selection.
Internal
--------
Editorconfig
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gluon now ships a *editorconfig* file to allow compatible editors to automatically apply key aspects of Gluon's code style.
Continuous Integration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Jenkins
- The CI now has a test stage to verify Gluons runtime functionality.
* GitHub Actions
- GitHub actions is now enabled for the Gluon project, build-testing all available targets.
Build system
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Source code minification can now be skipped by enabling the GLUON_MINIFY flag.
- Enabling the GLUON_AUTOREMOVE flag will remove package build directories after they are built.
This reduces space consumption at the expense of subsequent builds being slower.

NAND flash which the NAND driver before this release does not handle well.
