ramips: Add support for Mikrotik RouterBOARD RBM33g
This commit adds support for the Mikrotik RouterBOARD RBM33g.
=Hardware=
The RBM33g is a mt7621 based device featuring three gigabit ports, 2
miniPCIe slots with sim card sockets, 1 M.2 slot, 1 USB 3.0 port and a male
onboard RS-232 serial port. Additionally there are a lot of accessible
GPIO ports and additional buses like i2c, mdio, spi and uart.
==Switch==
The three Ethernet ports are all connected to the internal switch of the
mt7621 SoC:
port 0: Ethernet Port next to barrel jack with PoE printed on it
port 1: Innermost Ethernet Port on opposite side of RS-232 port
port 2: Outermost Ethernet Port on opposite side of RS-232 port
port 6: CPU
==Flash==
The device has two spi flash chips. The first flash chips is rather small
(512 kB), connected to CS0 by default and contains only the RouterBOOT
bootloader and some factory information (e.g. mac address).
The second chip has a size of 16 MB, is by default connected to CS1 and
contains the firmware image.
==PCIe==
The board features three PCIe-enabled slots. Two of them are miniPCIe
slots (PCIe0, PCIe1) and one is a M.2 (Key M) slot (PCIe2).
Each of the miniPCIe slots is connected to a dedicated mini SIM socket
on the back of the board.
Power to all three PCIe-enabled slots is controlled via GPIOs on the
mt7621 SoC:
PCIe0: GPIO9
PCIe1: GPIO10
PCIe2: GPIO11
==USB==
The board has one external USB 3.0 port at the rear. Additionally PCIe
port 0 has a permanently enabled USB interface. PCIe slot 1 shares its
USB interface with the rear USB port. Thus only either the rear USB port
or the USB interface of PCIe slot 1 can be active at the same time. The
jumper next to the rear USB port controls which one is active:
open: USB on PCIe 1 is active
closed: USB on rear USB port is active
==Power==
The board can accept both, passive PoE and external power via a 2.1 mm
barrel jack. The input voltage range is 11-32 V.
=Installation=
==Prerequisites==
A USB -> RS-232 Adapter and a null modem cable are required for
installation.
To install an OpenWRT image to the device two components must be built:
1. A openwrt initramfs image
2. A openwrt sysupgrade image
===initramfs & sysupgrade image===
Select target devices "Mikrotik RBM33G" in
openwrt menuconfig and build the images. This will create the images
"openwrt-ramips-mt7621-mikrotik_rbm33g-initramfs-kernel.bin" and
"openwrt-ramips-mt7621-mikrotik_rbm33g-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin" in the output
directory.
==Installing==
**Make sure to back up your RouterOS license in case you do ever want to
go back to RouterOS using "/system license output" and back up the created
license file.**
Serial settings: 115200 8N1
The installation is a two-step process. First the
"openwrt-ramips-mt7621-mikrotik_rbm33g-initramfs-kernel.bin" must be booted
via tftp:
1. Set up a dhcp server that points the bootfile to tftp server serving
the "openwrt-ramips-mt7621-mikrotik_rbm33g-initramfs-kernel.bin"
initramfs image
2. Connect to WAN port (left side, next to sys-LED and power indicator)
3. Connect to serial port of board
4. Power on board and enter RouterBOOT setup menu
5. Set boot device to "boot over ethernet"
6. Set boot protocol to "dhcp protocol" (can be omitted if DHCP server
allows dynamic bootp)
6. Save config
7. Wait for board to boot via Ethernet
On the serial port you should now be presented with the OpenWRT boot log.
The next steps will install OpenWRT persistently.
1. Copy "openwrt-ramips-mt7621-mikrotik_rbm33g-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin" to the device
using scp.
2. Write openwrt to flash using "sysupgrade
openwrt-ramips-mt7621-mikrotik_rbm33g-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin"
Once the flashing completes reboot the router and let it boot from flash.
It should boot straight to OpenWRT.

ramips: add support for Ubiquiti EdgeRouter X (UBNT-ERX)
This router is based on MT7621 SoC, no wifi, no usb, nand.
Works:
* Boots.
* Ethernet.
* Switch.
* Button (reset).
* Flashing OpenWrt from stock firmware.
* Upgrading OpenWrt.
Doesn't work:
* No GPIO leds. All leds are controlled by switch,
but stock firmware was able to control them.
* SoC has crypto engine but no open driver.
* SoC has nat acceleration, but no open driver.
* This router has 2MB spi flash soldered in but MT
nand/spi drivers do not support pin sharing,
so it is not accessable and disabled. Stock
firmware could read it and it was empty.
* PoE out.
Router has serial pins populated. If looking at the top
of the router, then counting from Eth sockets pins go as:
'GND, RX, TX, GND'. 3.3v, 57600.
U-boot bootloader supports tftpboot, controlled from serial.
This router has two kernel partitions: 'live' and 'backup'.
They are swapped during flashing (on both stock and OpenWrt).
Active partition is controlled by a flag in a factory partition.
U-boot has custom command to switch active kernel partition.
Kernel partitions are 'bare flash' 3MB. Stock bootloader has
no UBI support. Stock rootfs is UBIFS.
Flashing procedure.
Stock firmware uses custom kernel patch to mount squashfs
from a file that is located on UBIFS volume. This makes wiping
out this volume from within stock firmware difficult.
Instead this patch builds image that is flashable by stock firmware
and contains initrams image (with minimal set of packages
to fit into kernel partition). Once this is flashed one can reboot
into initramfs OpenWrt and use sysupgrade to flash OpenWrt including
rootfs into nand.
Note: factory image is only built if initramfs image is enabled.

ramips: add support for Xiaomi Mi Router 3 Pro
Hardware:
CPU: MediaTek MT7621AT (2x880MHz)
RAM: 512MB DDR3
FLASH: 256MB NAND
WiFi: 2.4GHz 4x4 MT7615 b/g/n (Needs driver, See Issues!)
WiFI: 5GHz 4x4 MT7615 a/n/ac (Needs driver, See Issues!)
USB: 1x 3.0
ETH: 1x WAN 10/100/1000 3x LAN 10/100/1000
LED: Power/Status
BTN: RESET
UART: 115200 8n1
Partition layout and boot:
Stock Xiaomi firmware has the MTD split into (among others)
- kernel0 (@0x200000)
- kernel1 (@0x600000)
- rootfs0
- rootfs1
- overlay (ubi)
Xiaomi uboot expects to find kernels at 0x200000 & 0x600000
referred to as system 1 & system 2 respectively.
a kernel is considered suitable for handing control over
if its linux magic number exists & uImage CRC are correct.
If either of those conditions fail, a matching sys'n'_fail flag
is set in uboot env & a restart performed in the hope that the
alternate kernel is okay.
If neither kernel checksums ok and both are marked failed, system 2
is booted anyway.
Note uboot's tftp flash install writes the transferred
image to both kernel partitions.
Installation:
Similar to the Xiaomi MIR3G, we keep stock Xiaomi firmware in
kernel0 for ease of recovery, and install OpenWRT into kernel1 and
after.
The installation file for OpenWRT is a *squashfs-factory.bin file that
contains the kernel and a ubi partition. This is flashed as follows:
nvram set flag_try_sys1_failed=1
nvram set flag_try_sys2_failed=0
nvram commit
dd if=factory.bin bs=1M count=4 | mtd write - kernel1
dd if=factory.bin bs=1M skip=4 | mtd write - rootfs0
reboot
Reverting to stock:
The part of stock firmware we've kept in kernel0 allows us to run stock
recovery, which will re-flash stock firmware from a *.bin file on a USB.
For this we do the following:
fw_setenv flag_try_sys1_failed 0
fw_setenv flag_try_sys2_failed 1
reboot
After reboot the LED status light will blink red, at which point pressing
the 'reset' button will cause stock firmware to be installed from USB.
Issues:
OpenWRT currently does not have support for the MT7615 wifi chips. There is
ongoing work to add mt7615 support to the open source mt76 driver. Until that
support is in place, there are closed-source kernel modules that can be used.

ramips: add support for Archer C50 v4
This adds support for the TP-Link Archer C50 v4.
It uses the same hardware as the v3 variant, sharing the same FCC-ID.
CPU: MediaTek MT7628 (580MHz)
RAM: 64M DDR2
FLASH: 8M SPI
WiFi: 2.4GHz 2x2 MT7628 b/g/n integrated
WiFI: 5GHz 2x2 MT7612 a/n/ac
ETH: 1x WAN 4x LAN
LED: Power, WiFi2, WiFi5, LAN, WAN, WPS
BTN: WPS/WiFi, RESET
UART: Near ETH ports, 115200 8n1, TP-Link pinout
Create Factory image
--------------------
As all installation methods require a U-Boot to be integrated into the
Image (and we do not ship one with the image) we are not able to create
an image in the OpenWRT build-process.
Download a TP-Link image from their Wesite and a OpenWRT sysupgrade
image for the device and build yourself a factory image like following:
TP-Link image: tpl.bin
OpenWRT sysupgrade image: owrt.bin
> dd if=tpl.bin of=boot.bin bs=131584 count=1
> cat owrt.bin >> boot.bin
Installing via Web-UI
---------------------
Upload the boot.bin via TP-Links firmware upgrade tool in the
web-interface.
Installing via Recovery
-----------------------
Activate Web-Recovery by beginning the upgrade Process with a
Firmware-Image from TP-Link. After starting the Firmware Upgrade,
wait ~3 seconds (When update status is switching to 0%), then
disconnect the power supply from the device. Upgrade flag (which
activates Web-Recovery) is written before the OS-image is touched and
removed after write is succesfull, so this procedure should be safe.
Plug the power back in. It will come up in Recovery-Mode on 192.168.0.1.
When active, all LEDs but the WPS LED are off.
Remeber to assign yourself a static IP-address as DHCP is not active in
this mode.
The boot.bin can now be uploaded and flashed using the web-recovery.
Installing via TFTP
-------------------
Prepare an image like following (Filenames from factory image steps
apply here)
> dd if=/dev/zero of=tp_recovery.bin bs=196608 count=1
> dd if=tpl.bin of=tmp.bin bs=131584 count=1
> dd if=tmp.bin of=boot.bin bs=512 skip=1
> cat boot.bin >> tp_recovery.bin
> cat owrt.bin >> tp_recovery.bin
Place tp_recovery.bin in root directory of TFTP server and listen on
192.168.0.66/24.
Connect router LAN ports with your computer and power up the router
while pressing the reset button. The router will download the image via
tftp and after ~1 Minute reboot into OpenWRT.
U-Boot CLI
----------
U-Boot CLI can be activated by holding down '4' on bootup.
Dual U-Boot
-----------
This is the first TP-Link MediaTek device to feature a split-uboot
design. The first (factory-uboot) provides recovery via TFTP and HTTP,
jumping straight into the second (firmware-uboot) if no recovery needs
to be performed. The firmware-uboot unpacks and executed the kernel.
Web-Recovery
------------
TP-Link integrated a new Web-Recovery like the one on the Archer C7v4 /
TL-WR1043v5. Stock-firmware sets a flag in the "romfile" partition
before beginning to write and removes it afterwards. If the router boots
with this flag set, bootloader will automatically start Web-recovery and
listens on 192.168.0.1. This way, the vendor-firmware or an OpenWRT
factory image can be written.
By doing the same while performing sysupgrade, we can take advantage of
the Web-recovery in OpenWRT.
It is important to note that Web-Recovery is only based on this flag. It
can't detect e.g. a crashing kernel or other means. Once activated it
won't boot the OS before a recovery action (either via TFTP or HTTP) is
performed. This recovery-mode is indicated by an illuminated WPS-LED on
boot.
