Description

I have openwrt snapshot r11094-a03219ba09 unifi ac lr (ath79).

snmpd does not start. In logs I found that:

daemon.info procd: Instance snmpd::instance1 s in a crash loop 7 crashes, 0 seconds since last crash

When I tried to start smpnd using command line I got that:
/usr/sbin/snmpd -Le
/dev/kmem: No such file or directory
/dev/mem: No such file or directory
Agent initialization failed

Research direction

Start by reproducing the /usr/sbin/snmpd -Le command on the UniFi AC LR running the reported OpenWrt snapshot, then inspect the snmpd package and service configuration responsible for the crash loop. Done means snmpd starts successfully on ath79 without the missing /dev/kmem or /dev/mem errors.
