Gluon 2018.1.1
==============
Bugfixes
~~~~~~~~
* Fix a bug leading to configuration loss on upgrade under certain circumstances
(`#1496 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1496>`_)
The issue can only occur when upgrading from 2018.1 and there are multiple
mirror entries in *site.conf* (specifically, an early failure for one of the
mirrors, e.g. during DNS resolution, followed by a successful upgrade from a
different mirror triggers the issue).
This is a regression in Gluon 2018.1.
* Fix next-node ARP issue
(`#1488 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1488>`_)
A routing table issue led to ARP requests being sent from the next-node IPv4 address, but with
a node-specific source MAC address. This could make the next-node IPv4 address unreachable.
This is a regression in Gluon 2018.1.
* Fix build on hosts with glibc 2.28
Fixed by various tool upgrades in LEDE (*bison*, *e2fsutils*, ...)
Other changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Linux kernel has been updated to v4.4.148
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 specially 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.
Gluon 2018.1.2
==============
Bugfixes
~~~~~~~~
* Fix a bug leading to missing IPv6 addresses in respondd announcements
(`#1523 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1523>`_)
The pattern that was used to match addresses from /proc/net/if_inet6
did not expect interface indexes growing past two characters.
* Mark ipq806x target as broken for unstable client WiFi
(`#1505 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1505>`_)
Station connections to the QCA9880 radio on the TP-Link C2600s are frequently
disconnected, leading to an abysmal user experience.
* Fix button behaviour on FRITZ!Box 4020
(`#1544 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/pull/1544>`_)
Buttons were triggering an instant reboot into config mode, fix by setting
buttons to active low instead of active high.
* Prevent caching of redirects on config mode and status page
(`#1530 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1530>`_)
As the path to both config mode and status page were changed between versions
users could be affected by a redirect to a no more valid URL.
* batman-adv has received two bugfixes, which were `backported <https://github.com/openwrt/routing/commit/7bf62cc8b556b5046f9bbd37687376fe9ea175bb>`_ from v2018.4
Other changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Linux kernel has been updated to v4.4.153
Known issues
~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Missing kernel module dependencies prevent batman-adv from being loaded on devices without WiFi drivers (`#1578 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1578>`_)
* 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 specially 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

Gluon 2018.1.3
==============
Bugfixes
~~~~~~~~
* Fix kernel module dependency collection for external modules (`#1580 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/pull/1580>`_)
A regression in v2018.1.2 prevented the batman-adv kmod from being loaded on devices without WiFi drivers.

Gluon 2018.1.4
==============
Bugfixes
~~~~~~~~
* Fix regression in autoupdater version comparison function
Due to a regression in Gluon 2018.1, the autoupdater would incorrectly
consider certain version strings equal and not attempt to upgrade.
In particular, any string and its prefix were considered equal when the
prefix did not end with a digit. For example, the following relations were
not evaluated correctly:
* ``1.0`` < ``1.0.1``
* ``1.0~pre`` < ``1.0``
* Fix unintended difference between autoupdater version comparison and dpkg/opkg
Alphanumeric characters were considered less than end-of-string, when the
intended behaviour (as implemented by dpkg and opkg) is that only ``~`` is
less than end-of-string. This broke relations like the following:
* ``1.0`` < ``1.0a``
* ``1.0a`` < ``1.0ab``
* ``1.0a`` < ``1.0a1``

* Configuration loss on upgrade under certain circumstances
(`#1496 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1496>`_)
The issue can only occur when upgrading from 2018.1 and there are multiple
mirror entries in *site.conf* (specifically, an early failure for one of the
mirrors, e.g. during DNS resolution, followed by a successful upgrade from a
different mirror triggers the issue).
This is a regression in Gluon 2018.1.
* Next-node ARP issue
(`#1488 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1488>`_)
A routing table issue leads to ARP requests being sent from the next-node IPv4 address, but with
a node-specific source MAC address. This can make the next-node IPv4 address unreachable.
This is a regression in Gluon 2018.1.

Bugfixes
~~~~~~~~
* Fixes a bug in the batman-adv respondd module that caused duplicate
IPv6 addresses in nodeinfo replies (`#1615 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1615>`_)
This was visible on the status page and several map implementations.
The new implementation uses netlink instead of parsing `/proc/net/if_inet6`.
* Fixes a localization issue in gluon-config-mode-geo-location which
resulted in a partial translation of the wizard's location section
text. (`#1611 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1611>`_)
* Fixes the display of the improved memory usage estimation in gluon-status-page
This change was actually already merged in time for v2018.2 but the
JavaScript was not rebuilt.
* Fixes automatic updates for several devices by adding and updating
the autoupdater image names
This affects the following devices:
* GL.iNet GL-AR150
* GL.iNet GL-AR300M
* GL.iNet GL-AR750
* Raspberry Pi Model B+ Rev 1.2
* Fixes the primary MAC address selection for Unifi AC
Lite/Mesh/Pro/Mesh Pro (`#1629 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1629>`_)
* Fixes low data rate selection for multicast and management frames on
ath10k and ath10k-ct (`#1644 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/pull/1644>`_)
A patchset has been backported that notifies these drivers of requested data rate changes
* Fixes the data rate selection in ath10k and ath10k-ct when no
`mcast_rate` is configured (`#1657 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/pull/1657>`_)
Previously a missing mcast_rate could result in broken 5 GHz connectivity
New features
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scheduled domain switch
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Gluon has support for multiple domains since its v2018.1 release.
The scheduled domain switch allows for reliable migrations between
domains at a preconfigured time.
This can be useful for communities that, among other things, plan to
* migrate between IBSS and 802.11s
* activate VXLAN encapsulation on wired mesh links
Improved frequency band distribution of dual-band radios
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
A new algorithm that improves the distribution of dual-band radios was
added. They will now be evenly distributed between the 2.4 and 5 GHz
band, with a preference towards 2.4 GHz.
If a device has only a single dual-band radio, like the AVM FRITZ!WLAN
Repeater 300E, it will be configured for 2.4 GHz.
