lack of kmod-macvlan (probably)

Post by Swerve5906 »

Hello!

Proud user of

Code: Select all

Linux TNAS-4F4A 4.4.18-g8bcbd8a-dirty #1328 SMP Mon Aug 31 12:00:37 CST 2020 aarch64 GNU/Linux
wierdy box
Find out that it's not possible to use docker's networks macvlan driver:
"Failed to create macvlan port: operation not supported"
I think problem is that TOS (at least on my NAS) has no

Code: Select all

'kmod-macvlan'
.
Due to the fact that TOS is basicaly openWRT fork, can somebody help to find proper version of 'kmod-macvlan' and help to install it.

Or in case if u have other solution "hot to use macvlan", please don't be hesitate to share.


Much love,

Random internet person

okay
There is lack of kmod-macvlan in TOS

Code: Select all

****@TNAS-4F4A:~$ sudo opkg list-installed | grep kmod-mac
kmod-mac80211 - 4.4.18+2017-11-01-4
but original OpenWRT wifi package installed

Code: Select all

****@TNAS-4F4A:~$ uci show wireless
wireless.radio0=wifi-device
wireless.radio0.type='mac80211'
wireless.radio0.channel='11'
wireless.radio0.hwmode='11g'
wireless.radio0.path='platform/9804e000.pcie/pci0000:00/0000:00:00.0'
wireless.radio0.htmode='HT20'
wireless.radio0.country='US'
wireless.@wifi-iface[0]=wifi-iface
wireless.@wifi-iface[0].device='radio0'
wireless.@wifi-iface[0].network='lan'
wireless.@wifi-iface[0].mode='ap'
wireless.@wifi-iface[0].ssid='OpenWrt_2.4G_root'
wireless.@wifi-iface[0].encryption='none'
wireless.@wifi-iface[0].txbf='1'
wireless.radio1=wifi-device
Also kmod-macvlan not included to the repo

Code: Select all

****@TNAS-4F4A:~$ sudo opkg list | grep kmod-mac
kmod-mac80211 - 4.4.18+2017-11-01-4
So if Developers will add kmod-vlan to original TOS repo for opkg it will be huge.

No updates?

Is it possible to mail developers?
We need this patch for kernel.
