Some Aquantia PHYs (e.g. AQR113C) require firmware to be uploaded by
host system. With built-in drivers this doesn't work in OpenWrt /
embeddded as filesystem isn't available during PHY probe. That results
in delays like:
[ 1.588068] Aquantia AQR113C mdio-bus:00: Falling back to sysfs fallback for: Rhe-05.06-Candidate9-AQR_Mediatek_23B_P5_ID45824_LCLVER1.cld
[ 64.526387] Aquantia AQR113C mdio-bus:00: failed to find FW file Rhe-05.06-Candidate9-AQR_Mediatek_23B_P5_ID45824_LCLVER1.cld (-110)
Switch to module to postpone PHY probe to init state.

Hardware
--------
SOC: MediaTek MT7988A (4x Cortex-A73)
RAM: 4 GiB DDR4
Flash: 128 MiB Winbond SPI-NAND
MMC: 8 GiB eMMC *or* microSD (cannot be used both)
ETH: 4x 1GE (1x WAN, 3x LAN)
2x SFP+ (10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G)
USB: on-board USB 3.2 4-port hub
1x USB 3.2 port (type A connector)
1x M.2 for 4G/5G modem
2x mPCIe for additional modems
WiFi: optional MediaTek MT7996 Wi-Fi 7 module
(using 2x PCIe gen3 x2 on the mPCIe slots and 12V power)
Installation
------------
1. Decompress and write the sdcard image to a micro SD card and use that
to boot the R4 (both dip switches in upper position).
2. Use the bootloader menu accessible via the serial console to install
to SPI-NAND.
3. Switch to boot from SPI-NAND and install to eMMC.
Known issues
------------
- The RST button is hard-wired to the SoC reset and can't be read
from software. This can be changed by modifying the board (ie.
moving a 0-ohm resistor). However, in order to maintain compatibility
with the board as it comes from factory the button isn't used by
OpenWrt and the WPS button is used as factory/reset button instead.
- various small things still need to be fixed in DT

Replace previous patch adding paths and SerDes modes with patch series
pending upstream adding dedicated drivers for XFI T-PHY and USXGMII PCS,
extends LynxI PCS to be a standalone platform driver and as a consequence
makes much less changes to the actual Ethernet driver mtk_eth_soc.

Specifications:
SoC: MediaTek MT7981B
RAM: 1024MiB
Flash: SPI-NAND 128 MiB
Switch: 1 WAN, 4 LAN (Gigabit)
USB: two M.2 slots for 5G modems via USB 3.0 hub, external USB 3.0 port
Buttons: Reset, Mesh
Power: DC 12V 1A
WiFi: MT7976CN
UART: 115200n8
UART Layout:
VCC-RX-TX-GND
Installation:
A. Through OpenWrt Dashboard:
If your router comes with OpenWrt preinstalled (modified by the seller),
you can easily upgrade by going to the dashboard (192.168.1.1) and then
navigate to System -> Backup/Flash firmware, then flash the firmware
B. Through TFTP
Standard installation via UART:
1. Connect USB Serial Adapter to the UART, (NOTE: Don't connect the VCC pin).
2. Power on the router. Make sure that you can access your router via UART.
3. Restart the router then repeatedly press ctrl + c to skip default boot.
4. Type > bootmenu
5. Press '2' to select upgrade firmware
6. Press 'Y' on 'Run image after upgrading?'
7. Press '0' and hit 'enter' to select TFTP client (default)
8. Fill the U-Boot's IP address and TFTP server's IP address.
9. Finally, enter the 'firmware' filename.
