 @magic_rb:numtide.com | she wants to be able to open ports via upnp because games | 15:12:44 |
| @magic_rb:numtide.com | or smt | 15:12:51 |
| @magic_rb:numtide.com | * or smth | 15:12:53 |
| @magic_rb:numtide.com | im not very happy about it but like, what can i do | 15:12:55 |
 emily | I have a dumb question about the Ethernet architecture on the BPI-R4 btw | 15:13:15 |
| emily | end0 is like, a switch device, right? | 15:13:23 |
| emily | hence the wan/lan1/etc. hanging off it? | 15:13:43 |
| emily | currently I'm just creating a bridge in networkd to bring all of those together. I guess that's not going to get me hardware accelerated switching? | 15:14:03 |
| emily | should I be using end0 directly for anything? | 15:14:12 |
| @magic_rb:numtide.com | can i tell it to run a command when it wants to do something? just adding a rule to a single table is not enough in my case due to the multiple network namaspaces | 15:14:23 |
 K900 | Uhhh | 15:15:53 |
| K900 | idk | 15:15:55 |
| K900 | tbh | 15:15:55 |
| K900 | Yes | 15:16:01 |
| K900 | I think it should | 15:16:09 |
| @magic_rb:numtide.com | im really not liking that she wants upnp | 15:16:16 |
| emily | okay so that padding patch was replaced with https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221227140807.48413-2-nbd@nbd.name/ | 15:16:29 |
| K900 | You can always configure it to forward specific things | 15:16:33 |
| emily | which also doesn't appear to be in the tree | 15:16:44 |
| emily | (how on earth are you meant to track patch lifecycles in the kernel) | 15:17:01 |
| K900 | But it doesn't seem to affect NETSYSv3 | 15:17:04 |
| K900 | Like at all | 15:17:07 |
| K900 | So presumably it's not actually relevant for the 7988? | 15:17:17 |
| emily | magic_rb: what was the actual change that got you from "PPP won't negotiate" to "PPP negotiates"? | 15:17:59 |
| emily | like did you apply a patch or just switch to a new version of K900's tree or | 15:18:12 |
| @magic_rb:numtide.com | https://github.com/frank-w/BPI-Router-Linux/commit/1a6d1e12425127e5f9fe3012581d756500342856 | 15:18:19 |
| @magic_rb:numtide.com | that | 15:18:22 |
| @magic_rb:numtide.com | just applied patch | 15:18:26 |
| emily | you directly applied that patch? | 15:18:30 |
| emily | ok | 15:18:31 |
