diizzyy:

Does this occur on recent revisions?

jon.grossart:

What revision is your hardware? V1.0 works fine, but version 1.1 has a known issue due to the flash chip used.

mkresin:

It is a known issue of the Archer C2600 v1.1 and other boards having > 16MB SPI flash.

It is already fixed upstream and lede-project/source#620 is about backporting the fix to kernel 4.4.

jon.grossart:

The C2600 v1.0 has > 16 MB SPI flash, so that's not entirely the correct interpretation. For the C2600, it seems to do more with the specific flash chip used, and not just a size-type combo.

neuro42:

Still occurring with 17.01 branch builds and trunk builds.

The hardware is labelled as (CA)/1.0

And still happens with 17.01-SNAPSHOT, r3428-443d705

For remote management not so nice

bjonglez:

So, it turns out that backporting the fix https://git.lede-project.org/?p=source.git;a=commitdiff;h=226e194335c0d9a92402fbab772eac4f38786e45 to kernel 4.4 is far from easy and really invasive :( I tried but it needs a lot of backported patches that don't apply cleanly at all on 4.4.

I guess we will have to live with this issue on the 17.01 branch.

bjonglez:

I finally got the backport in a good shape! I am currently building all targets to see the amount of breakage it may cause (hopefully none at all).
