The coolsnowwolf/lede project, a fork of OpenWrt aimed at providing efficient firmware for routers and embedded devices, has seen limited development progress recently, with no new merges and long-standing pull requests remaining open.
Recent issues and pull requests indicate ongoing challenges in maintaining hardware compatibility and resolving compilation errors. The two open PRs, #12404 and #7796, focus on enhancing user control over network acceleration and optimizing build processes, respectively. However, their prolonged open status suggests potential roadblocks in decision-making or implementation.

PRs: created by that dev and opened/merged/closed-unmerged during the period
The recent activity on the coolsnowwolf/lede GitHub repository shows a high volume of issues, with a total of 741 open issues. Notably, several issues have been created or updated in the last few days, indicating ongoing development and user engagement. A common theme among the recent issues is related to compilation errors, particularly with specific hardware support and dependencies, which suggests that users are encountering challenges when building firmware for various devices.
Several issues highlight critical problems such as missing dependencies, compilation failures due to outdated configurations, and specific hardware compatibility issues. For instance, issues related to the ath10k-ct
driver and various kernel modules indicate that users are struggling with integrating newer kernel versions or specific drivers into their builds. Additionally, there are multiple reports of network-related problems, including difficulties with IPv6 configurations and Wi-Fi connectivity.
Here are some of the most recently created and updated issues:
Issue #12464: tini编译报错,dockerd依赖项
tini
package due to missing dependencies for dockerd
.Issue #12462: 编译失败
Issue #12461: toolchain/gcc切换到12后ssrp运行不正常
Issue #12460: macos m2下编译树莓派5固件失败
Issue #12459: 新版本的固件不能上网,包括6.6.50,6.1.100
Issue #12456: 无线网口(联发科mt7925无法使用)
Issue #12455: 请大佬帮忙看下 编译失败
The most prominent themes among these issues include:
Compilation Failures: Many users report difficulties compiling the firmware due to missing dependencies or configuration issues, particularly when updating to newer kernel versions or switching toolchains.
Hardware Compatibility: Several issues focus on specific hardware components (e.g., Wi-Fi chips like mt7925), indicating potential gaps in support for certain devices or drivers within the current build environment.
Network Connectivity Problems: Users frequently mention problems related to network configurations, especially concerning IPv6 and Wi-Fi connectivity after updates or changes in settings.
These recurring themes suggest that while there is active engagement from users seeking solutions and reporting bugs, there may be underlying challenges in maintaining compatibility with various hardware configurations and ensuring stable builds across different environments.
The analysis of the pull requests (PRs) for the coolsnowwolf/lede
repository reveals a mix of ongoing development efforts, with a total of 2 open PRs and 3421 closed PRs. The recent activity indicates a focus on enhancing features, fixing bugs, and updating dependencies, particularly in relation to the Leigod acceleration application and build optimizations using GitHub Actions.
PR #12404: luci-app-leigod-acc: add scheduled pause
Created by 喵二 (miaoermua) 34 days ago, this PR introduces a scheduled pause feature for the Leigod accelerator. It aims to enhance user control over the accelerator's operation by allowing scheduled pauses. The implementation includes new scripts and modifications to existing files. Notably, it has been edited recently, indicating active development.
PR #7796: 使用github actions cache缓存工具链, 加速你的云编译项目,让你做更快的男人
Created by stupidloud over 1100 days ago, this PR proposes using GitHub Actions caching to speed up cloud compilation projects. It provides detailed instructions on how to implement caching in CI workflows. Despite being open for a long time, it has seen recent edits suggesting ongoing interest or need for adjustments.
PR #12445: Update atf-v2.8.tar.gz PKG_SOURCE_URL
Closed 11 days ago without merging, this PR updated the download URL for a package source.
PR #12442: rockchip: configure pad driver strength for orangepi r1 plus lts
Closed 12 days ago, this PR was merged and aimed at configuring pad driver strength to ensure stable connections under specific voltage conditions.
PR #12413: kernel: bump 6.6 to 6.6.46
Closed 28 days ago and merged, this PR updates the kernel version, reflecting ongoing maintenance of system dependencies.
PR #12399: Fix the issue where CPU usage is not displayed on the status overview page after installing 'procps-ng-top'
Merged and closed 36 days ago, this PR addressed a specific bug related to CPU usage display, indicating active bug-fixing efforts.
The current state of pull requests in the coolsnowwolf/lede
repository reflects a vibrant development environment focused on both feature enhancements and critical bug fixes. The presence of two open pull requests suggests that while there is ongoing work in progress, the majority of contributions have been successfully integrated into the main codebase.
A significant theme among the recent PRs is the enhancement of user experience through additional features in applications like luci-app-leigod-acc. For instance, PR #12404 introduces a scheduled pause feature that allows users more control over their network acceleration settings, which is particularly useful for optimizing bandwidth usage during specific times. This indicates an emphasis on user-centric features that improve functionality and usability.
Another commonality is the continuous effort to keep dependencies up-to-date, as seen in PRs like #12413 which updates the kernel version. This is crucial for maintaining security and performance standards within the firmware.
One notable anomaly is the age of some open pull requests like #7796, which has remained open for over three years despite being edited recently. This could indicate either a lack of consensus on its implementation or perhaps a shift in priorities within the project that has led to its stagnation. Such long-standing open PRs can create confusion within the community regarding project direction and priorities.
Additionally, there are instances of closed pull requests that were not merged due to various reasons such as lack of adherence to contribution guidelines or being deemed unnecessary (e.g., PR #12193). This highlights potential friction points in community contributions where contributors may not fully understand submission requirements or project needs.
While there are many closed PRs indicating past activity, the current lack of recent merge activity could suggest either a stabilization phase where fewer changes are needed or possibly bottlenecks in review processes. The repository's high number of open issues (743) alongside these trends may indicate that while development is ongoing, there are challenges in managing contributions effectively.
In conclusion, while coolsnowwolf/lede
demonstrates robust community engagement and development activity focused on enhancing features and maintaining dependencies, attention should be given to managing long-standing open pull requests and ensuring clarity around contribution guidelines to foster continued collaboration and improvement within the project.
