46dec9952b firmware-utils: tplink-safeloader: set EAP235-Wall v1 soft-version
Starting with v3 of the vendor firmware for the TP-Link EAP235-Wall v1,
downgrades to firmware versions below v3 as not allowed.  Since OpenWrt
uses version 0.0.0 as a default, this causes the factory install to fail
on devices with a recent firmware. This failure is associated by the
following message on the device's serial console:

    EAP235/230-Wall forbid fw reverted from 3.x.x to lower version!

Vendor firmware (v3) also uses build and release numbers to compare
images, so identical version numbers are very unlikely to cause issues.
Bump the firmware version to 3.0.0 to ensure users can install OpenWrt
on their devices.

8dba4741b3 firmware-utils: tplink-safeloader: improve soft-version customisation
Some devices using the safeloader firmware format require a minimum or
specific version to be set in the soft-version metadata partition.
Currently only custom text values can be provided, but not all device
firmware support this format.

Modify the device info struct to allow for more well-defined types of
soft-version overwrites, and provide a few macros for easy value
initialisation. Requires all existing values to be updated to match the
new structure.

2f7a73329f firmware-utils: seama.h: replace LGPL-2.1-or-later boilerplate with SPDX
This was missed because scancode license scanner was confused by a
slightly different than expected license text (96,75% license score).

License text included "file" instead of "library" in the main part of
the licensing info. It also used "The GNU C Library" instead of the
standard "This library" in 2nd and 3rd paragraphs.

The first paragraph clearly mentions LGPL-2.1-or-later and the use of
"file" instead of "library" should not affect licensing.

baacdd53df ath79: add support for TP-Link TL-WA1201 v2
This device is a wireless access point working on the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
band, based on Qualcomm/Atheros QCA9563 + QCA9886.

Specification
- 775 MHz CPU
- 128 MB of RAM (DDR2)
- 16 MB of FLASH (SPI NOR)
- QCA9563: 2.4 GHz 3x3
- QCA9886: 5 GHz
- AR8033: 1x 1 Gbs Ethernet
- 4x LED, WPS factory reset and power button
- bare UART on PCB (accessible through testpoints)

Methods for Flashing:
- Apply factory image in OEM firmware web-gui. Wait a minute after the
  progress bar completes and restart the device.
- Sysupgrade on top of existing OpenWRT image
- Solder wires onto UART testpoints and attach a terminal.
  Boot the device and press enter to enter u-boot's menu. Then issue the
  following commands
  1. setenv serverip your-server-ip
     setenv ipaddr your-device-ip
  2. tftp 0x80060000 openwrt-squashfs.bin (Rembember output of size in
    hex, henceforth "sizeinhex")
  3. erase 0x9f030000 +"sizeinhex"
  4. cp.b 0x80060000 0x9f030000 0x"sizeinhex"

mkmerakifw-old was created for the z1 which uses the AR9344 SoC with
be32 addressing. The MX64/MX65 devices use the same header style, however
these boards use a BCM NSP SoC with le32 addressing.

Since we may be booting initramfs images with this header, which may be
of any size, within reason, board->imagelen is set to 0. The kernel
image shoule be limited in the image Makefile.

7b9a0c264c ath79: use dynamic partitioning for TP-Link CPE series
CPExxx and WBSxxx boards with AR9344 SOC
use the OKLI lzma kernel loader
with the offset of 3 blocks of length 4k (0x3000)
in order to have a fake "kernel" that cannot grow larger
than how it is defined in the now static OEM partition table.

Before recent changes to the mtdsplit driver,
the uImage parser for OKLI only supported images
that started exactly on an eraseblock boundary.

The mtdsplit parser for uImage now supports identifying images
with any magic number value
and at any offset from the eraseblock boundary
using DTS properties to define those values.

So, it is no longer necessary to use fixed sizes
for kernel and rootfs

interface (running at 192.168.0.1) for reverting back to the
stock TP-Link firmware. The failsafe interface is triggered
from the serial console or on failed kernel boot. Unfortunately,
there's no key combination that enables the failsafe mode. This
gives us two options for recovery:

1) Recover using the serial console (J1 header).
The recovery interface can be selected by hitting 'x' when
prompted on boot.

2) Trigger the bootloader failsafe mode.
A more dangerous option is force the bootloader into
recovery mode by erasing the OpenWrt partition from the
OpenWrt's shell - e.g "mtd erase firmware". Please be
careful, since erasing the wrong partition can brick
your device.

48cad07a55 firmware-utils: zytrx: Add util for ZyXEL specific header
The ZyXEL NR7101 prepend an additional header to U-Boot images. This
header use the TRX magic 0x30524448 (HDR0), but is incompatible with
TRX images.

This code is reverse-engineered based on matching 32 bit numbers
found in the header with lengths and different checksum
calculations of the vendor images found on the device.  The result
was matched against the validation output produced by the
bootloader to name the associated header fields.

Example bootloader validation output:

 Zyxel TRX Image 1 --> Found!  Header Checksum OK
 ============ZyXEL header information==================
         chipId             : MT7621A
         boardId            : NR7101
         modelId            : 07 01 00 01
         kernel_len         : (14177560)
         kernelChksum       : (0x8DD31F69)
         swVersionInt       : 1.00(ABUV.0)D1
         swVersionExt       : 1.00(ABUV.0)D1

 Zyxel TRX Image 2 --> Found!  Header Checksum OK
 ============ZyXEL header information==================
         chipId             : MT7621A
         boardId            : NR7101
         modelId            : 07 01 00 01
         kernel_len         : (14176660)
         kernelChksum       : (0x951A7637)
         swVersionInt       : 1.00(ABUV.0)D0
         swVersionExt       : 1.00(ABUV.0)D0

 =================================================
 Check image validation:
 Image1 Header Magic Number --> OK
 Image2 Header Magic Number --> OK
 Image1 Header Checksum --> OK
 Image2 Header Checksum --> OK
 Image1 Data Checksum --> OK
 Image2 Data Checksum --> OK
 Image1 Stable Flag --> Stable
 Image1 Try Counter --> 0
 Image1: OK
 Image2: OK

The coverage and algorithm for the kernelChksum field is unknown.
This field is not validated by the bootloader or the OEM firmware
upgrade tool. It is therefore set to a static value for now.

The swVersion fields contain free form string values.  The OEM firmware
use ZyXEL structured version numbers as shown above.  The strings are
not interpreted or validated on boot, so they can be repurposed for
anything we want the bootloader to display to the user.  But the OEM
web GUI fails to flash images with freeform strings.

The purpose of the other strings in the header is not known.  The
values appear to be static.  We assume they are fixed for now, until
we have other examples.  One of these strings is the platform name,
which is taken as an input parameter for support other members of
the device family.

d4f2c2914a firmware-utils: mkmylofw: fix blocks padding
The old code didn't make sense as it was using "len" variable which was
guaranteed to be always 0. Loop right above broken code is:
while (len > 0) { }

With this recent ALIGN macro fix this resulted in subtracting block size
from 0 and calling write_out_padding() with a negative length.

To calculate amount of bytes needed for padding & alignment it should be
enough to use % 4.

e6d66375cb tplink-safeloader: fix C7v5 factory flashing from vendor fw > v1.1.x
Currently it's not possible to flash factory images on devices shipped
with vendor firmware versions 1.1.0 Build 20201120 rel. 50406 (published
2020-12-22):

 (curFw_ver, newFw_ver) == (1.1, 1.0) [NM_Error](nm_checkSoftVer) 00848: Firmwave not supports, check failed.
 [NM_Error](nm_checkUpdateContent) 01084: software version dismatched
 [NM_Error](nm_buildUpgradeStruct) 01188: checkUpdateContent failed.

They've even following note in release notes:

 Note: You will be unable to downgrade to the previous firmware version
       after updating this firmware.

This version check in vendor firmware is implemented in
/usr/bin/nvrammanager binary likely as following C code[1]:

 sscanf(buf, "%d.%d.%*s",&upd_fw_major, &upd_fw_minor);
 ...
 if (((int)upd_fw_major < (int)cur_fw_major) ||
     ((ret = 1, cur_fw_major == upd_fw_major && (upd_fw_minor < (int)cur_fw_minor)))) {
       ret = 0;
       printf("[NM_Error](%s) %05d: Firmwave not supports, check failed.\r\n\r\n","nm_checkSoftVer" ,0x350);
 }
 ...
 return ret;

So in order to fix this and make it future proof it should be enough to
ship our factory firmware images with major version 7 (lucky number).

Tested on latest firmware version 1.1.2 Build 20210125 rel.37999:

 Firmwave supports, check OK.
  (curFw_ver, newFw_ver) == (1.1, 7.0) check firmware ok!
