+- **Stop at the ⏸ before Phase 5.** Flashing reboots the box and cannot be interrupted partway.

+- **Packages are baked into the image**, so a package change means a reflash. Edit the box's list in
+  [`openwrt/default.nix`](../../../openwrt/default.nix), rebuild, and check the built `.manifest` —
+  a package name that doesn't exist is not a build error, it just isn't in the image.
+- **`scp` does not work** on these boxes (no `sftp-server`). Move files with
+  `ssh <box> 'cat > /dev/…' < file` and `ssh <box> 'cat …' > file`.
+- **Detach the upgrade with `setsid`**, not `nohup` (absent on busybox). `sysupgrade` kills the SSH
+  session mid-run, and an attached run dies with it — possibly after the firmware is erased.
+- **Never reach for `sysupgrade -c`.** It needs `/overlay/upper/etc` and aborts *after* erasing the
+  firmware when that is missing, which is exactly the initramfs case. Plain `sysupgrade` already
+  keeps everything in `/lib/upgrade/keep.d/`.
+- **Poll SSH to detect the reboot, never ping.** Successful pings return in milliseconds, so a
+  "wait for down" loop completes instantly and reports nonsense. Sleep between probes; expect about
+  three minutes.
+- **Verify after**, don't assume: revision, management address, package count against the manifest,

+- It is **guided, not automated** — stop at the ⏸ points: settling what the box actually is
+  (Phase 1), wiping and partitioning disks (Phase 3), and running `do-install` (Phase 6). The user
+  often wants to do the install step by hand.
+- **Phase 1 is not derivable from the hardware.** Name, site, role, channel and whether the box gets
+  assignments now all have to come from the user. Ask before writing files.
+- **`show-hw-config` is a shell alias**, so it needs `installer-shell bash -lic show-hw-config`.
+  Run it twice: once early for the kernel-module lists, once after mounting for the filesystems.
+- **`git add` the new box directory before evaluating** — the flake reads through git, and an
+  untracked path fails as "Path … is not tracked by Git" rather than as a Nix error.
+- **Validate with `check-system <host>`**, not `build-system` — evaluation catches module and option
+  errors cheaply.
+- **Seed the SSH host key from the installer** (Phase 3) by copying `/etc/ssh/ssh_host_*` onto the
+  persist volume. The installer regenerates them each boot, so they are safe to adopt, and it means
+  `my.secrets.key` can be set and secrets encrypted before the install rather than after first boot.
+- **Every box declares a secret even when its own config declares none** — `my.user` pulls in
+  `user-passwd.txt` by default — so setting `my.secrets.key` always requires
+  `ragenix --rekey-one secrets/user-passwd.txt.age`. Check with
+  `nix eval .#nixosConfigurations.<host>.config.age.secrets --apply builtins.attrNames` rather than
+  assuming there is nothing to do. Re-encrypt selectively; `ragenix --rekey` rewrites every secret
+  in `secrets/` and drowns the real change in churn.
+- Take **everything** useful out of `show-hw-config`, not just the modules and filesystems — drop an
+  option only when a nixfiles module already sets it.
+- Finish with Phase 8: box page, site index row, `networking.md` prose. Don't hand-edit anything

+## OpenWrt images
+
+The OpenWrt boxes are not NixOS and are not deployed by this flake, but their firmware is built
+here. [`openwrt/default.nix`](../openwrt/default.nix) declares one image per box and packages it
+through [`astro/nix-openwrt-imagebuilder`](https://github.com/astro/nix-openwrt-imagebuilder),
+which drives OpenWrt's official ImageBuilder — prebuilt target packages assembled into a sysupgrade
+image, with no cross-toolchain involved.

+| Output | Box | Release |
+|---|---|---|
+| `openwrt-fergal` | [fergal](sites/colony/fergal.md) | `snapshot` |
+| `openwrt-fergal-release` | The same, on the release branch | pinned in `openwrt/default.nix` |
+
+Both are in `ci`, so images are built and pushed to the Harmonia cache like everything else. Build
+one with `nix build .#openwrt-fergal`; the result holds the `-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin` to flash,
+plus a package manifest and an SBOM. Getting it onto the box is a guided procedure of its own —
+see [`openwrt-flash.md`](openwrt-flash.md).
+
+Packages are baked into the image rather than installed on the box. OpenWrt's package server keeps
+only the current build of each feed, so a box that installs packages at runtime stops being able to
+do so as soon as the feed moves on from the firmware it is running. Adding a package means editing
+the image's `packages` list and reflashing.
+
+### The feed pin
+
+OpenWrt's download server is never at rest: snapshot is rebuilt daily, and
+`releases/<version>/packages/` is a symlink to the rolling `packages-<major>` feed shared by every
+point release. Building straight against it fails on hash mismatches and, worse, resolves the
+package list by import-from-derivation — which would drag *evaluation* of this flake onto the
+network and let an OpenWrt feed rebuild break `check-system` for unrelated boxes.
+
+The `openwrt-feeds` input exists to stop that. It holds expanded per-package metadata and vendors
+the repository indexes themselves, so every `.apk` is a plain pinned `fetchurl`, image builds read
+the indexes from the flake rather than OpenWrt's mutable URLs, and no import-from-derivation is
+involved. Its generated files run to hundreds of thousands of lines and are rewritten wholesale on
+each refresh, which is why they live in their own repository rather than here. Regenerate and push
+that repository with `nix run .#update`, then refresh this flake's pin with
+`nix flake update openwrt-feeds`; adding a release or target means adding it to that repository's
+`pins` first.

+# Installing a box
+
+Procedure for bringing a new NixOS box into this flake, from bare hardware booted into the custom
+installer through to a deployable system. Written to be followed by a person or any coding agent; a
+Claude Code entry point exists at `.claude/skills/install-box/` but the steps below are the
+canonical source.
+
+The install is **guided, not automated**: the mechanical steps (probing hardware, partitioning,
+writing the config, evaluating it) can be done straight through, but stop at the judgment points
+(marked ⏸) — what the box actually is, wiping disks, and running `do-install` itself. Keep a running
+summary and present it before any destructive step.
+
+For the installer image itself — what it contains, how it is built and released — see
+[`misc/installer.md`](misc/installer.md).
+
+## Setup facts
+
+- **Installer access:** the box boots the custom installer (ISO, kexec or netboot) and is reached
+  over SSH as `root` with `.keys/deploy.key`. The devshell sets
+  `INSTALLER_SSH_OPTS = "-i .keys/deploy.key"`; set `INSTALLER` to the address, and
+  `INSTALLER_SSH_PORT` if it is not 22.
+- **Devshell commands** (from [`devshell/install.nix`](../devshell/install.nix)):
+  `installer-shell [cmd]` and `do-install [--no-bootloader] [--no-substitute] <system>`.
+- **`INSTALL_ROOT`** is `/mnt` in the installer's environment — everything is mounted under it and
+  `do-install` reads it from the installer rather than assuming.
+- **`show-hw-config`** is a shell *alias* in the installer (wrapping
+  `nixos-generate-config --show-hardware-config --root $INSTALL_ROOT`), so it needs an interactive
+  shell: `installer-shell bash -lic show-hw-config`. A plain `installer-shell show-hw-config` will
+  not find it.
+- **Validation:** `check-system <host>` evaluates a system without building it — use it while
+  iterating. Only `build-system` when you need the artifact.
+- Nix reads the flake through git, so **`git add` new files before evaluating** — an untracked
+  box directory fails with "Path … is not tracked by Git", not a Nix error.
+
+## Phase 1 — Establish what the box is
+
+⏸ Settle these before writing anything; they decide where every file goes and they are not
+recoverable from the hardware:
+
+1. **Name and site** — the box name doubles as the `nixos.systems.<name>` attribute, the deploy node
+   name and the docs page name. The site decides the directory (`nixos/boxes/<site>/`), the
+   constants block in [`lib/constants.nix`](../lib/constants.nix) it draws prefixes from, and the
+   docs directory (`docs/sites/<site>/`, `docs/remote/`, `docs/mobile/`).
+2. **Role** — what it does, which decides its modules, networking and firewall config.
+3. **nixpkgs channel** — `unstable` / `stable` / `mine` / `mine-stable`; match the site's other
+   boxes unless there is a reason not to.
+4. **Networking** — whether it gets `assignments` now, or bootstraps on DHCP because it is being
+   staged somewhere other than its final home. A box with no assignment still needs a reachable
+   `my.deploy.node.hostname`, since the default (`config.networking.fqdn`) will not resolve.
+
+## Phase 2 — Reach the installer and inventory the hardware
+
+With the box booted into the installer and `INSTALLER` set:
+
+1. Confirm you are talking to the right thing — `installer-shell hostname` reports `installer`, and
+   `/etc/os-release` carries `VARIANT_ID=installer`.
+2. Collect the inventory you will need for both the config and the docs page: `lscpu`, `free -h`,
+   `lsblk -o NAME,SIZE,TYPE,FSTYPE,MODEL,SERIAL`, `ip -br link`, `ip -br addr`,
+   `lspci -nn | grep -Ei 'ethernet|network|nvme|sata|raid'`, and whether `/sys/firmware/efi` exists.
+3. Record every NIC's **permanent MAC** against its PCI address — interface naming in Phase 5 pins
+   names to MACs, and the PCI order tells you which physical port is which.
+4. Run `installer-shell bash -lic show-hw-config` now for the kernel-module lists. Filesystems are
+   not mounted yet, so run it again in Phase 4 for those.
+
+## Phase 3 — Partition, format and mount
+
+⏸ Destructive. Check the target disks are the ones you think they are and that nothing on them is
+wanted, then show the exact command sequence and get confirmation before running it.
+
+The house layout is a tmpfs root (`my.tmproot`) with three mounts: an ESP at `/boot`, `/nix`, and
+`/persist` (`neededForBoot = true`). Use **`sgdisk`** for partitioning and put `/nix` and `/persist`
+on **LVM** so they can be resized later:
+
+```sh
+sgdisk -Z /dev/<disk>
+sgdisk \
+  -n 1:0:+2G -t 1:ef00 -c 1:esp \
+  -n 2:0:0   -t 2:8e00 -c 2:lvm \
+  /dev/<disk>
+partprobe /dev/<disk>
+
+pvcreate /dev/<disk>p2
+vgcreate main /dev/<disk>p2
+lvcreate -L 48G      -n <host>-nix     main
+lvcreate -l 100%FREE -n <host>-persist main
+
+mkfs.vfat -n ESP /dev/<disk>p1
+mkfs.ext4 -L nix     /dev/main/<host>-nix
+mkfs.ext4 -L persist /dev/main/<host>-persist
+```
+
+Conventions worth keeping: volume group `main`, logical volumes `<host>-nix` / `<host>-persist`,
+and ext4 filesystem labels `nix` and `persist`. Size the ESP and `/nix` to the box — 2 GiB and
+48 GiB suit a small single-disk box.
+
+Then mount everything under `$INSTALL_ROOT`, with a tmpfs standing in for the eventual tmpfs root:
+
+```sh
+mount -t tmpfs -o size=2G tmpfs "$INSTALL_ROOT"
+mkdir -p "$INSTALL_ROOT"/{nix,persist,boot}
+mount /dev/main/<host>-nix     "$INSTALL_ROOT/nix"
+mount /dev/main/<host>-persist "$INSTALL_ROOT/persist"
+mount /dev/<disk>p1            "$INSTALL_ROOT/boot"
+```
+
+### Seed the SSH host key
+
+The installer generates fresh host keys on every boot, so adopt them as the box's own rather than
+letting it generate another set on first boot. Copy them onto the persist volume now:
+
+```sh
+install -d -m 0755 "$INSTALL_ROOT/persist/etc/ssh"
+for t in ed25519 rsa; do
+  install -m 0600 "/etc/ssh/ssh_host_${t}_key"     "$INSTALL_ROOT/persist/etc/ssh/ssh_host_${t}_key"
+  install -m 0644 "/etc/ssh/ssh_host_${t}_key.pub" "$INSTALL_ROOT/persist/etc/ssh/ssh_host_${t}_key.pub"
+done
+```
+
+`my.tmproot` persists `services.openssh.hostKeys` at exactly those paths, so the installed system
+picks them up. This means the box's key is known **before** it first boots, so `my.secrets.key` can
+be set and its secrets encrypted as part of the same pass — no install, boot, re-encrypt, re-deploy
+round trip. (For a box already up, the `ssh-get-ed25519 <host>` devshell command prints the same
+value in the form `my.secrets.key` wants.)
+
+## Phase 4 — Capture the hardware config
+
+Re-run `installer-shell bash -lic show-hw-config` with the filesystems mounted.
+
+Read the whole generated file and carry over **anything** in it that the flake does not already
+provide — it reflects what was actually detected on this hardware, and the list below is just what
+usually shows up, not a limit:
+
+- `boot.initrd.availableKernelModules` and `boot.initrd.kernelModules` (LVM adds `dm-snapshot`)
+- `boot.kernelModules` (`kvm-intel` / `kvm-amd`) and the microcode attribute
+- the ESP's `by-uuid` device, and the device paths for `/nix` and `/persist`
+- anything else it emits — `boot.extraModulePackages`, `hardware.*` attributes, `swapDevices`,
+  additional detected filesystems, `imports` such as `not-detected.nix`
+
+The test is conflict, not familiarity: drop an option only when a nixfiles module already sets it,
+and keep it otherwise. The flake's own modules cover the bootloader, `initrd.systemd`,
+`initrd.services.lvm`, the kernel package and `nixpkgs.hostPlatform` (see
+[`nixos/modules/common.nix`](../nixos/modules/common.nix) and
+[`nixos/default.nix`](../nixos/default.nix)), so those are the ones to leave out. Don't paste the
+file in wholesale either — translate it into the box's own style, and reference LVM volumes as
+`/dev/main/<host>-nix` rather than the generated `/dev/mapper/main-<host>--nix`.
+
+## Phase 5 — Write the box config
+
+Create `nixos/boxes/<site>/<host>/default.nix` (a directory, so per-topic files can be added
+alongside it later) declaring `nixos.systems.<host>`, and add its path to the `configs` list in
+[`flake.nix`](../flake.nix). Then `git add` it.
+
+The minimum is `system`, `nixpkgs`, `home-manager` and a `configuration` with the hardware from
+Phase 4, the three filesystems, and networking. Beyond that:
+
+- **Interface naming:** pin names to hardware with `.link` files matching `PermanentMACAddress`,
+  named for speed and index — `et1g0`, `et2g5-0`, `et10g-1`. Never rely on predictable-interface
+  names in the `.network` files.
+- **Servers** set `my.server.enable = true`.
+- **Secrets:** set `my.secrets.key` to the ed25519 public key seeded in Phase 3 (the key only, no
+  `root@installer` comment). Note that **every box declares at least one secret** even if its own
+  config declares none: [`nixos/modules/user.nix`](../nixos/modules/user.nix) adds
+  `user-passwd.txt` whenever `my.user.enable` is on, which is the default. So setting
+  `my.secrets.key` always adds the box to that file's recipients, and
+  `ragenix --rekey-one secrets/user-passwd.txt.age` is required — skip it and the box cannot
+  decrypt its user password on first boot. Confirm what the box actually declares with
+  `nix eval .#nixosConfigurations.<host>.config.age.secrets --apply builtins.attrNames`, and
+  re-encrypt each of those files the same way. Create any new secrets with `ragenix -e <path>`.
+  Never use `--rekey`, which rewrites every secret in `secrets/`.
+- **A box staged away from its final home** gets a bootstrap `.network` taking DHCP, plus
+  `systemd.network.wait-online.anyInterface = true` so boot does not block on unpatched ports, and
+  an explicit `my.deploy.node.hostname`. Comment it as temporary and say what replaces it.
+
+Validate with `check-system <host>` and fix eval errors before going near the target.
+
+## Phase 6 — Install
+
+⏸ The maintainer may want to run this step themselves; ask rather than assume.
+
+`do-install <host>` builds the system's `toplevel`, `nix copy`s the closure into the installer's
+`$INSTALL_ROOT` store, points `/nix/var/nix/profiles/system` at it, touches `/etc/NIXOS`, and runs
+`switch-to-configuration boot` with `NIXOS_INSTALL_BOOTLOADER=1`. It prompts for confirmation and
+prints the target it resolved.
+
+- `--no-bootloader` skips the bootloader install (for a box that boots by other means).
+- `--no-substitute` copies everything from the local store instead of letting the target substitute.
+
+## Phase 7 — First boot and post-install
+
+1. Reboot the box off the installer and confirm it comes up: it should get its address, and
+   `hostname` should be the system name. Its SSH host key is the one seeded in Phase 3, so it
+   presents the same fingerprint the installer did.
+2. **Secrets.** If Phase 5 set `my.secrets.key`, they already decrypt. [`secrets.nix`](../secrets.nix)
+   computes the ragenix recipient list from that key at evaluation time, so nothing needs
+   regenerating — but any secret added to the box later must be re-encrypted for the new recipient
+   list with `ragenix --rekey-one <path>`, one file at a time. Never reach for `ragenix --rekey`:
+   it rewrites every secret in `secrets/` and buries the actual change in churn.
+3. **Deploy.** `deploy .#<host>` should now work over the `deploy` user. If the box is staged
+   somewhere without its final DNS name, `deploy --hostname <address> .#<host>` overrides the node
+   hostname for one run.
+
+## Phase 8 — Document it
+
+Per [`AGENTS.md`](../AGENTS.md), a new box means:
+
+- a box page under the right docs directory, following the standard layout (H1 + one-line intro;
+  `Source` / `Host` / `nixpkgs` bullets; hardware inventory; `## Role`; `## Network assignments`
+  linking to [`networking.md#box-assignments`](networking.md#box-assignments), or a short
+  explanation if it has none yet; one `##` per topic; `## Notable config files` last);
+- a row in the site index `README.md` boxes table;
+- affected prose in [`networking.md`](networking.md) — the assignment tables themselves are
+  CI-generated, so write the prose and leave the tables alone;
+- the site diagram in [`README.md`](README.md) if the box changes its layout.

 switches ESP from `null-sha256` to AES-GCM. The shared `l2mesh/as211024.key` PSK is expanded into
 `/run/l2mesh.secrets` when `ipsec` starts.

+### ESP throughput
+
+ESP is the mesh's throughput limit rather than VXLAN — encapsulation is close to free, and on a
+small box the crypto is what costs. The kernel processes a single SA on a single core, so per-peer
+throughput is capped by one core however many the box has. That limit binds per peer rather than
+per box, so a router spreads naturally across its peers.
+
+Two things follow for configuration:
+
+- The `esp4_offload` / `esp6_offload` modules provide GSO/GRO batching for ESP and are **not**
+  autoloaded when an SA is created. The [`l2mesh` module](../nixos/modules/l2mesh.nix) loads the
+  one matching each secured mesh's underlay family; without them throughput is around a third
+  lower, for more CPU.
+- `security.encrypt = false` does not save CPU on hardware with AES-NI — it measured slower than
+  AES-GCM. GCM resolves to a single fused accelerated implementation, while the authenticate-only
+  path falls back to a generic `authenc(hmac(sha256),ecb(cipher_null))` composition.
+
+#### NIC crypto offload
+
+No mesh uses it, and the `esp4_offload` / `esp6_offload` modules above are unrelated to it — those
+are software GSO/GRO batching. Hardware ESP offload is a separate XFRM feature that Libreswan only
+requests for connections setting `nic-offload=yes`, which the
+[`l2mesh` module](../nixos/modules/l2mesh.nix) does not.
+
+[`portcullis`](sites/colony/portcullis.md)'s 82599ES ports advertise `esp-hw-offload` and the
+offload does work, but not for anything the meshes could use. Measured on the box by installing
+SAs directly with `ip xfrm` and watching `ixgbe`'s `tx_ipsec` counter:
+
+| SA | Result |
+|---|---|
+| `et10g-0`, transport, AES-GCM-128 | offload active — `mode crypto` against the physical port |
+| `et10g-0`, transport, AES-GCM-256 | rejected: *"IPsec hw offload only supports keys up to 128 bits with a 32 bit salt"* |
+| `et10g-0`, **tunnel** mode | rejected: *"Unsupported mode for ipsec offload"* |
+| `lan-hi` (a VLAN on `et10g-0`) | **accepted with the offload silently dropped** — software crypto |
+| `et2g5-0` (I226-V) | accepted, offload silently dropped — `igc` has none |
+
+Two traps are worth knowing. Binding an SA to a device that cannot offload is **not** an error:
+`xfrm_dev_state_add` returns success having cleared the device, so the SA looks fine and quietly
+runs in software. And a VLAN interface never offloads — it carries no `xfrmdev_ops`, and
+`esp-hw-offload` reads `off [fixed]` on it even when its parent supports the feature.
+
+The second trap is the decisive one here. Even with the offload genuinely active against
+`et10g-0`, driving traffic through the SA left `tx_ipsec` at zero, because the packets egress
+`lan-hi` and the kernel only offloads when the SA's device matches the egress device. Every address
+`portcullis` holds is on a VLAN, so an SA would have to be bound to an untagged physical port to
+see the hardware at all.
+
+So adopting it would mean dropping to a 128-bit key to suit one NIC family, keeping the underlay
+off VLANs, and forgoing `udpEncapsulation` — `xfrm_dev_offload_ok` refuses any SA carrying
+`encap`. That is not a trade worth making for a mesh that has to run across boxes with no offload
+at all.
+
+#### pcrypt
+
+`pcrypt` parallelises an SA's crypto across cores via padata and does lift the per-SA ceiling. It
+is not enabled on any box here, and is recorded as an option rather than a recommendation:
+
+- It cannot be named in the SA — `ip xfrm` and the kernel both validate AEAD names against a fixed
+  list. It is engaged instead by registering a `pcrypt(...)`-wrapped instance under the standard
+  algorithm name at a higher priority, over `NETLINK_CRYPTO` (`CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER`). `crconf` is
+  the usual tool for that and is not packaged in nixpkgs.
+- The registration is global: it redirects every user of that algorithm on the box, not just the
+  mesh, and would have to run before `ipsec` starts.
+- A single-threaded submit path remains, so it does not scale with core count, and it trades
+  latency and packet ordering for throughput.

+so an ordinary flash preserves both access and identity. Verify rather than assume — losing
+`authorized_keys` on a box reachable only over SSH means a serial console recovery.
+
+## Phase 3 — Back up
+
+```sh
+sysupgrade -b /tmp/<box>-config-backup.tar.gz
+```
+
+Fetch it with `ssh <box> 'cat /tmp/…' > local.tar.gz`. **`scp` does not work** — these boxes have no
+`/usr/libexec/sftp-server`, so it fails with `Connection closed`. (`scp -O` forces the legacy
+protocol if you prefer it.)
+
+For a box being flashed off its **vendor** firmware for the first time, back up the whole flash
+first — the vendor partitions hold per-unit MAC addresses and licence data that cannot be
+regenerated. See [fergal's flash layout](sites/colony/fergal.md#flash-layout).
+
+## Phase 4 — Stage and validate
+
+```sh
+ssh <box> 'cat > /tmp/sysupgrade.bin' < <image>.bin
+ssh <box> 'sha256sum /tmp/sysupgrade.bin; sysupgrade -T /tmp/sysupgrade.bin'
+```
+
+Compare the sha256 against the local file, and require `sysupgrade -T` to exit 0. `-T` validates the
+image and its device-compatibility metadata without writing anything, which is the last cheap chance
+to catch a wrong-profile image.
+
+## Phase 5 — Flash ⏸
+
+Confirm before this point. It reboots the box and is not interruptible.
+
+```sh
+ssh <box> 'setsid sh -c "sleep 2; sysupgrade -v /tmp/sysupgrade.bin" \
+  </dev/null >/tmp/upgrade.log 2>&1 & echo detached'
+```
+
+**Detaching matters.** `sysupgrade` kills the SSH session partway through; without `setsid` the
+upgrade dies with it, potentially after the flash has been erased. `nohup` is not available on these
+boxes' busybox — use `setsid`.
+
+Plain `sysupgrade` keeps the config in `keep.d`. Do not reach for `-c` out of caution: it needs
+`/overlay/upper/etc` and aborts *after* erasing the firmware if that is missing.
+
+## Phase 6 — Wait and verify
+
+Poll SSH, not ping. A successful ping returns in milliseconds, so a naive "wait for it to go down"
+loop finishes before the box has even started rebooting. Sleep between probes and wait on something
+that only succeeds once userspace is up:
+
+```sh
+for i in $(seq 1 40); do
+  sleep 15
+  ssh -o ConnectTimeout=5 -o BatchMode=yes <box> 'grep REVISION /etc/openwrt_release' && break
+done
+```
+
+Expect roughly three minutes. Then confirm the revision changed, the management address returned,
+the package count matches the manifest, and the new packages are actually present and running.
+Connecting without host-key overrides also confirms the host keys survived.
+
+If the box does not return, it needs the serial console — have that confirmed as reachable *before*
+Phase 5, not after.

+
+An 8-port SFP+ switch running OpenWrt, bought to sit in front of
+[`portcullis`](portcullis.md) at Nikhef. It is physically at home for now, on the bench alongside
+`portcullis` while that box is staged.
+
+- **Source:** firmware built by this flake — [`openwrt/default.nix`](../../../openwrt/default.nix)
+- **Host:** bare metal
+- **OS:** OpenWrt (snapshot), configured through UCI rather than RouterOS or a UniFi controller
+
+## Hardware
+
+| Component | Inventory |
+|---|---|
+| Platform | XikeStor SKS8300-8X; the board itself is branded ONTi ONT-S508CL-8S |
+| SoC | Realtek RTL9303 (MIPS 34Kc) |
+| Memory | 512 MB |
+| Storage | 32 MiB SPI NOR (`spi0.0`) |
+| Network | 8×SFP+ (`lan1`…`lan8`) |
+
+## Role
+
+`portcullis`'s 10G switch. Nothing else depends on it, and it is not part of the home fabric — it
+is expected to travel to Nikhef with `portcullis` rather than stay behind.
+
+While staged at home it hangs off jim's spare SFP+ port, so `portcullis` can reach the home `hi`
+VLAN over 10G: `lan1` uplinks to jim's `sfp-spare`, `lan2` goes to `portcullis`, and the other six
+cages are empty. See [the home switches](../home/switches.md) for the fabric it borrows.
+
+## Network assignments
+
+fergal has no assignments — it is not managed by the flake. Its management address is
+`192.168.64.30` on the home `core` VLAN, set in UCI as `network.lan`, with no DNS record; reach it
+as `ssh root@192.168.64.30`.
+
+## VLAN configuration
+
+One bridge (`switch`), with VLAN 1 as the untagged PVID on every port — that's the native VLAN on
+jim's `sfp-spare`, and `switch.1` is where fergal's own management address lives. `hi` (100) and
+`lo` (110) are **tagged** members of every port, so a box on any cage can pick them up:
+
+```
+uci show network | grep bridge-vlan
+```
+
+Tagging all eight rather than just `lan1`/`lan2` keeps a spare cage usable without a reconfigure;
+there is nothing sensitive behind it while fergal is on the bench.
+
+**Jumbo frames pass, despite what `ip link` says.** Every DSA port and the `switch` bridge read
+`mtu 1500`, but the RTL9303 forwards between ports in hardware and isn't bound by those — a
+`ping -M do -s 8972` from `portcullis` to the `hi` VIP crosses fergal intact, which is what makes
+the 9000-MTU `hi` VLAN usable over this path. The 1500 does apply to traffic punted to the CPU,
+i.e. fergal's own management on `switch.1`.
+
+## Firmware
+
+The image is built by this flake — see [OpenWrt images](../../deployment.md#openwrt-images) for the
+outputs and the feed pin. Packages are baked into the image, so adding tooling means editing
+[`openwrt/default.nix`](../../../openwrt/default.nix) and reflashing rather than installing on the
+box.
+
+### Flash layout
+
+A single 32 MiB SPI NOR chip (`spi0.0`, 64 KiB erase blocks). `kernel` and `rootfs` are
+sub-partitions of `firmware`, and OpenWrt adds `rootfs_data` as the JFFS2 overlay after a real
+flash.
+
+| Partition | Device | Offset | Size |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `u-boot` | `mtd0` | `0x000000` | 1 MiB |
+| `board-info` | `mtd1` | `0x100000` | 192 KiB |
+| `syslog` | `mtd2` | `0x130000` | 832 KiB |
+| `firmware` | `mtd3` | `0x200000` | 30 MiB |
+
+**`board-info` is irreplaceable.** It holds the unit's MAC addresses (`[vlanmac]` / `[cpumac]`), its
+`[license]` hash, the stock boot pointers and an SSH host key — only about 1.3 KiB of it is
+non-blank, and none of it can be regenerated. A full dump of all four partitions, taken before
+OpenWrt was flashed, is kept outside this repo — 33 MB of images, with per-partition checksums and
+restore notes. Never write `u-boot` or `board-info` without a confirmed serial/TFTP recovery path.
+
+### Flashing notes
+
+The procedure itself is in [`openwrt-flash.md`](../../openwrt-flash.md); what follows is specific to
+this board.
+
+Stock u-boot boots `flash:/nos.img` from a JFFS2 filesystem, so OpenWrt's sysupgrade image is
+itself a JFFS2 image containing `nos.img` rather than a raw kernel + squashfs. Two things bite when
+flashing from an initramfs, as during the initial install:
+
+- **`sysupgrade -c` does not work.** It needs `/overlay/upper/etc`, which doesn't exist when running
+  from RAM, and it aborts *after* `mtd erase firmware` has already run — leaving the box with no
+  bootable firmware until the job is finished. Pass the config as an explicit tarball instead
+  (`tar czf`, then `sysupgrade -f <tarball> …`).
+- **The working management address may not be in UCI.** If it was set by hand with `ip` while UCI
+  still held the stock address, the box comes back unreachable. Write it into `network.lan` and
+  commit before flashing.
+
+Neither applies to an ordinary flash-to-flash upgrade, where `sysupgrade` keeps `/etc/config` and
+the files listed in `/lib/upgrade/keep.d/` by default. Dropbear host keys are regenerated by a flash
+that doesn't preserve them, so clear the old `known_hosts` entry afterwards.

+
+## Hardware
+
+| Component | Inventory |
+|---|---|
+| Platform | Mini PC (no vendor DMI strings) |
+| CPU | Intel N150 (4 cores / 4 threads) |
+| Memory | 8 GiB |
+| Storage | One 128 GB NVMe SSD (`nvme0n1`), partitioned as a 2 GiB ESP plus an LVM PV holding the `nix` and `persist` volumes |
+| Network | Four Intel I226-V 2.5 GbE ports (`et2g5-0`…`et2g5-3`) and one dual-port Intel 82599ES 10 GbE SFP+ card (`et10g-0`, `et10g-1`) |
+| Management | JetKVM (HDMI/USB KVM with virtual media) |
+
+The PCIe layout constrains what the cards can reach. The 82599ES sits behind a gen2 x4 link giving
+16 Gb/s for **both** its ports together, so one port runs at line rate but the pair is
+oversubscribed. The NVMe is on a x1 root port, capped near 7.9 Gb/s regardless of the drive. Each
+I226-V has its own x1 link and is not constrained.
+
+## Role
+
+Not yet in service. The eventual job is to be the physical edge for the colony site at Nikhef,
+taking over most of what `estuary` does today — WAN termination, firewalling and NAT, BGP for
+AS211024 and DNS. Some of that functionality stays on `estuary`, and the surrounding network
+topology will change with the move, so the split is not settled yet. Until it is, the config in
+this repository covers only what is needed to boot and reach the box.
+
+## Network assignments
+
+`portcullis` has no colony assignments yet — those land alongside the routing config once the
+topology is decided. While it is staged at home it holds a single home `hi` assignment, listed in
+[`networking.md#box-assignments`](../../networking.md#box-assignments).
+
+## Networking
+
+- The four I226-V ports are named `et2g5-0`…`et2g5-3` and the 82599ES SFP+ ports `et10g-0` /
+  `et10g-1`, pinned by permanent MAC address in `.link` files.
+- Bootstrap: a single `.network` matches every `et2g5-*` port and takes DHCP on the home `lo` VLAN,
+  so whichever port happens to be patched in brings the box up. `wait-online.anyInterface` keeps
+  boot from blocking on the unpatched ports.
+- kea registers the DHCP hostname, so while staged the box also answers to `portcullis.dyn.h.nul.ie`.
+- `my.deploy.node.hostname` is the `hi` address, taken from the assignment rather than written out,
+  since there is no colony FQDN for the box yet.
+
+### 10G to the home `hi` VLAN
+
+`et10g-0` runs over fibre to [`fergal`](fergal.md), which uplinks to jim's `sfp-spare` port. That
+uplink is untagged VLAN 1, so `hi` is carried tagged on a `lan-hi` VLAN interface rather than on the
+port itself; the physical link takes the `hi` jumbo MTU so the whole path is consistent with the
+rest of the VLAN. `lan-hi` carries the static assignment, resolves through the router VIPs like
+every other `hi` client, and its gateway route outranks the DHCP default, so the 10G path is
+preferred while the 2.5G one stays as a fallback.
+
+Both jim and `fergal` tag `hi` and `lo` along that path. It exists only while the box is staged at
+home — `fergal` goes to Nikhef with it.
+
+The other SFP+ port, `et10g-1`, is unused.
+
+### Interface tuning
+
+Every port takes router-sized 4096-entry rings rather than the driver defaults, matching the other
+routers here, and enables `GenericReceiveOffloadUDPForwarding` so GRO batching survives forwarding
+once the box carries UDP-encapsulated traffic. Both are `.link` settings, so they apply on the next
+device event rather than at switch time — a reboot is the reliable way to land a change to them.
+
+Interrupt coalescing is deliberately left alone. `igc` reports `rx-usecs` 3 and `ixgbe` reports 1,
+which are the drivers' markers for dynamic ITR rather than literal microseconds; writing a
+plausible-looking value there replaces adaptive moderation with a fixed one.
+
+### I226-V erratum
+
+The I226-V link-drop erratum is driven by PCIe ASPM, Energy Efficient Ethernet and stale NIC
+firmware. ASPM, the dominant cause, is off across the whole box for the reason in
+[Power](#power) below. EEE is held off by a udev rule invoking `ethtool`, as `systemd.link` has no
+knob for it. `igc` already leaves EEE off on these ports, so the rule pins a driver default rather
+than correcting one, and keeps it from drifting on a kernel bump. Firmware is the remaining item:
+the ports report NVM `2.13` (EEPROM version word `0x2013`, which `igc` prints as the `2013` in
+`ethtool -i`), behind the `2.29`/`2.32` images that circulate. Intel does not publish the I226-V
+NVM image, so updating means third-party firmware and is best attempted while the box is at home
+and the JetKVM is attached.
+
+## Power
+
+The SoC side is already at its floor and needs no tuning: the package draws around 0.75 W idle with
+cores in C10 essentially all the time, under `intel_pstate` on the `powersave` governor.
+
+Platform idle is capped instead, and deliberately left that way. The ACPI FADT declares that the
+system does not support PCIe ASPM, so the OS defers to firmware, every root port advertises ASPM as
+unsupported and every endpoint sits with it disabled. Deep package C-states need every PCIe link in
+L1, so the package never leaves C3. `pcie_aspm=force` is the usual answer and is **not** used here:
+the 82599ES advertises only L0s with an unlimited exit latency, so no amount of forcing reaches the
+deep states while that card is fitted, and the only links it would actually change are the four
+I226-V ones — the exact configuration behind the erratum above. Recovering that power is a firmware
+question for the mini PC, and only worthwhile once the 82599ES is gone.
+
+`iommu=pt` puts host devices in passthrough so the forwarding path does not pay DMA translation,
+while leaving the IOMMU available.
+
+## Storage
+
+A single NVMe SSD, following the usual tmpfs-root layout: a 2 GiB ESP at `/boot`, then one LVM PV
+in volume group `main` carrying `portcullis-nix` (48 GiB, `/nix`) and `portcullis-persist` (the
+remainder, `/persist`).
+
+## Secrets
+
+`my.secrets.key` is the SSH host key adopted from the installer session at install time (seeded onto
+the persist volume before first boot), so secrets could be encrypted for the box without waiting for
+it to come up. The box declares nothing of its own yet — only the default `user-passwd.txt` that
+`my.user` brings in.

+## fergal (portcullis's switch)
+
+**fergal** is an 8-port SFP+ switch running OpenWrt, hanging off jim's `sfp-spare` port. It belongs
+to [`portcullis`](../colony/portcullis.md) rather than to the home fabric — it is here only while
+that box is staged at home, and goes to Nikhef with it. Nothing in the home fabric depends on it.
+
+What it borrows from home is VLAN 1 untagged on the jim uplink (fergal's own management sits on it,
+at `192.168.64.30` on core) plus tagged `hi` (100) and `lo` (110), so `portcullis` can reach those
+over 10G. The switch itself — VLAN layout, flash layout, firmware and flashing notes — is
+documented in [sites/colony/fergal.md](../colony/fergal.md).

jackos1998andClaude Opus 5	bf411e03e2	nixos/portcullis: Tune NICs, IOMMU and EEE Router-sized 4096-entry rings on every port with GRO kept across forwarding, the IOMMU in passthrough mode, and EEE pinned off on the I226-V ports as one trigger for their link-drop erratum. The ring and GRO settings are .link files, so they land on a device add event rather than at switch time. Also document the tuning deliberately not done -- coalescing and PCIe ASPM -- and what measuring the NICs' ESP offload found, since the esp4_offload modules are software batching and easy to mistake for it.

jackos1998andClaude Opus 5	dd0b318a44	nixos/castle: Set lan-lo to the standard MTU lan-lo is a VLAN on et100g, which carries hi's jumbo frames, so it inherited 9000 rather than the 1500 the lo VLAN runs at.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-08-22 01:34:15 +01:00
jackos1998andClaude Opus 5	87cdfdbd97	nixos/portcullis: Bring up 10G on the home hi VLAN portcullis is wired over 10G to fergal, which uplinks to jim's spare SFP+ port. That uplink is untagged VLAN 1, so hi is carried tagged on a lan-hi VLAN interface: a static assignment at 192.168.68.41 / ::6:1, resolving through the router VIPs like any other hi client. Its gateway route outranks the DHCP default, making 10G the preferred path while the 2.5G bootstrap stays as a fallback. Deploy now targets that address. The hi MTU goes on the .network rather than the .link, since a .link is only applied at udev device-add -- with it there, et10g-0 stays at 1500 across a switch and lan-hi cannot take 9000. jim's sfp-spare was tagged into hi and lo out of band to match. fergal turns out to belong with portcullis rather than to the home fabric -- it goes to Nikhef when the box does -- so its documentation moves to the colony site, leaving home/switches.md a short section on what it borrows from that fabric.

jackos1998andClaude Opus 5	cdc5d9c1db	openwrt: Build fergal's firmware in the flake fergal is an 8-port SFP+ switch on a Realtek RTL9303, running OpenWrt rather than RouterOS or UniFi. It is not part of the fabric yet, but its firmware is now built here via astro's nix-openwrt-imagebuilder. Packages are baked into the image: OpenWrt's package server keeps only the current build of each feed, so installing at runtime stops working as soon as the feed moves past the running firmware. Those feed indexes rotate constantly, and upstream pins only the indexes -- a mismatch drops evaluation into import-from-derivation, putting this flake's eval on the network. The openwrt-feeds input pins expanded per-package hashes instead, in a repository of its own because they run to hundreds of thousands of generated lines. Flashing gets a procedure doc and a thin skill pointing at it, the same split as the box installation and nixpkgs upgrade procedures.

jackos1998andClaude Opus 5	e7122b8862	docs: Add box installation procedure CI / Check, build and cache nixfiles (push) Successful in 56m36s Details Update docs / update (push) Successful in 1m11s Details Canonical, agent-agnostic procedure for bringing a new box into the flake, from a booted installer through to a deployable system, plus a thin Claude Code skill pointing at it -- same split as the nixpkgs upgrade procedure. Records the conventions that were not written down anywhere: sgdisk plus an LVM PV for the nix and persist volumes, adopting the installer's SSH host keys so secrets can be encrypted before first boot, and taking whatever show-hw-config emits that the flake's own modules do not already set. Also notes in AGENTS.md that a changed recipient list should be re-encrypted per file with ragenix --rekey-one; --rekey rewrites every secret in secrets/ and buries the actual change.

jackos1998andClaude Opus 5	0aade09d7e	nixos/portcullis: Add initial config New bare-metal box headed for Nikhef, intended to take over most of estuary's colony edge routing. This is the bootstrap config only: the hardware, the single-NVMe ESP + LVM layout, and enough networking to boot and be reachable. It is being staged at home before it is racked, so it has no colony assignments yet. Every 2.5G port takes DHCP and whichever one is patched in brings the box up; kea registers the DHCP hostname, so the deploy node points at portcullis.dyn.h.nul.ie until there is a real colony FQDN for it. The host key was adopted from the installer session and seeded onto the persist volume before first boot, so my.secrets.key could be set up front -- which makes portcullis a recipient of the user-passwd secret that my.user declares for every box. Documented with a box page, a row in the colony site index, and a note in the colony section of networking.md that the topology is expected to change once portcullis takes over from estuary.
