Add support for the TP-Link SG2210P switch. This is an RTL8380 based
switch with eight RJ-45 ports with 802.3af PoE, and two SFP ports.
This device shares the same board with the SG2008P and SG2008. To
model this, declare all the capabilities in the sg2xxx dtsi, and
disable unpopulated on the lower end models.
Specifications:
---------------
- SoC: Realtek RTL8380M
- Flash: 32 MiB SPI flash (Vendor varies)
- RAM: 256 MiB (Vendor varies)
- Ethernet: 8x 10/100/1000 Mbps with PoE (all ports)
2x SFP ports
- Buttons: 1x "Reset" button on front panel
- Power: 53.5V DC barrel jack
- UART: 1x serial header, unpopulated
- PoE: 2x TI TPS23861 I2C PoE controller
Works:
------
- (8) RJ-45 ethernet ports
- (2) SFP ports (with caveats)
- Switch functions
- System LED
Not yet enabled:
----------------
- Power-over-Ethernet (driver works, but doesn't enable "auto" mode)
- PoE LEDs
Enabling SFP ports:
-------------------
The SFP port control lines are hardwired, except for tx-disable. These
lines are controller by the RTL8231 in shift register mode. There is
no driver support for this yet.
However, to enable the lasers on SFP1 and SFP2 respectively:
echo 0x0510ff00 > /sys/kernel/debug/rtl838x/led/led_p_en_ctrl
echo 0x140 > /sys/kernel/debug/rtl838x/led/led_sw_p_ctrl.26
echo 0x140 > /sys/kernel/debug/rtl838x/led/led_sw_p_ctrl.24
Install via serial console/tftp:
--------------------------------
The footprints R27 (0201) and R28 (0402) are not populated. To enable
serial console, 50 ohm resistors should be soldered -- any value from
0 ohm to 50 ohm will work. R27 can be replaced by a solder bridge.
The u-boot firmware drops to a TP-Link specific "BOOTUTIL" shell at
38400 baud. There is no known way to exit out of this shell, and no
way to do anything useful.
Ideally, one would trick the bootloader into flashing the sysupgrade
image first. However, if the image exceeds 6MiB in size, it will not
work. The sysupgrade image can also be flashed. To install OpenWrt:
Prepare a tftp server with:
1. server address: 192.168.0.146
2. the image as: "uImage.img"
Power on device, and stop boot by pressing any key.
Once the shell is active:
1. Ground out the CLK (pin 16) of the ROM (U7)
2. Select option "3. Start"
3. Bootloader notes that "The kernel has been damaged!"
4. Release CLK as sson as bootloader thinks image is corrupted.
5. Bootloader enters automatic recovery -- details printed on console
6. Watch as the bootloader flashes and boots OpenWrt.

The TP-Link RTL83xx based switches have their MAC address programmed
in the "para" partition. While in theory, the format of this partition
is dynamic, in practice, the MAC address appears to be located at a
consistent address. Thus, use nvmem-cells to read this MAC address.
The main MAC is required for deriving the MAC address of the switch
ports. Instead of reading it via mtd_get_mac_binary(), alias the
ethernet0 node as the label-mac-device, and use get_mac_label().

Serge Vasilugin reports:
To improve mt7620 built-in wifi performance some changes:
1. Correct BW20/BW40 switching (see comments with mark (1))
2. Correct TX_SW_CFG1 MAC reg from v3 of vendor driver see
https://gitlab.com/dm38/padavan-ng/-/blob/master/trunk/proprietary/rt_wifi/rtpci/3.0.X.X/mt76x2/chips/rt6352.c#L531
3. Set bbp66 for all chains.
4. US_CYC_CNT init based on Programming guide, default value was 33 (pci),
set chipset bus clock with fallback to cpu clock/3.
5. Don't overwrite default values for mt7620.
6. Correct some typos.
7. Add support for external LNA:
a) RF and BBP regs never be corrected for this mode
b) eLNA is driven the same way as ePA with mt7620's pin PA
but vendor driver explicitly pin PA to gpio mode (for forrect calibration?)
so I'm not sure that request for pa_pin in dts-file will be enough
First 5 changes (really 2) improve performance for boards w/o eLNA/ePA.
Changes 7 add support for eLNA
Configuration w/o eLAN/ePA and with eLNA show results
tx/rx (from router point of view) for each stream:
35-40/30-35 Mbps for HT20
65-70/60-65 Mbps for HT40
Yes. Max results for 2T2R client is 140-145/135-140
with peaks 160/150, It correspond to mediatek driver results.
Boards with ePA untested.

Add support for TP-Link Deco S4 wifi router
The label refers to the device as S4R and the TP-Link firmware
site calls it the Deco S4 v2. (There does not appear to be a v1)
Hardware (and FCC id) are identical to the Deco M4R v2 but the
flash layout is ordered differently and the OEM firmware encrypts
some config parameters (including the label mac address) in flash
In order to set the encrypted mac address, the wlan's caldata
node is removed from the DTS so the mac can be decrypted with
the help of the uencrypt tool and patched into the wlan fw
via hotplug

WatchGuard AP100 is an indoor wireless access point with
1 Gb ethernet port, dual-band but single-radio wireless,
internal antenna plates, and 802.3at PoE+
this board is a Senao device:
the hardware is equivalent to EnGenius EAP300 v2
the software is modified Senao SDK which is based on openwrt and uboot
including image checksum verification at boot time,
and a failsafe image that boots if checksum fails
**Specification:**
- AR9344 SOC MIPS 74kc, 2.4 GHz AND 5 GHz WMAC, 2x2
- AR8035-A EPHY RGMII GbE with PoE+ IN
- 25 MHz clock
- 16 MB FLASH mx25l12805d
- 2x 64 MB RAM
- UART console J11, populated
- GPIO watchdog GPIO 16, 20 sec toggle
- 2 antennas 5 dBi, internal omni-directional plates
- 5 LEDs power, eth0 link/data, 2G, 5G
- 1 button reset
**MAC addresses:**
Label has no MAC
Only one Vendor MAC address in flash at art 0x0
eth0 ---- *:e5 art 0x0 -2
phy0 ---- *:e5 art 0x0 -2
**Installation:**
Method 1: OEM webpage
use OEM webpage for firmware upgrade to upload factory.bin
Method 2: root shell
It may be necessary to use a Watchguard router to flash the image to the AP
and / or to downgrade the software on the AP to access SSH
For some Watchguard devices, serial console over UART is disabled.
NOTE: DHCP is not enabled by default after flashing
**TFTP recovery:**
reset button has no function at boot time
only possible with modified uboot environment,
(see commit message for Watchguard AP300)
**Return to OEM:**
user should make backup of MTD partitions
and write the backups back to mtd devices
in order to revert to OEM reliably
It may be possible to use sysupgrade
with an OEM image as well...
(not tested)
**OEM upgrade info:**
The OEM upgrade script is at /etc/fwupgrade.sh
OKLI kernel loader is required because the OEM software
expects the kernel to be no greater than 1536k
and the factory.bin upgrade procedure would otherwise
overwrite part of the kernel when writing rootfs.
**Note on eth0 PLL-data:**
The default Ethernet Configuration register values will not work
because of the external AR8035 switch between
the SOC and the ethernet port.
For AR934x series, the PLL registers for eth0
can be see in the DTSI as 0x2c.
Therefore the PLL registers can be read from uboot
for each link speed after attempting tftpboot
or another network action using that link speed
with `md 0x1805002c 1`.
The clock delay required for RGMII can be applied
at the PHY side, using the at803x driver `phy-mode`.
Therefore the PLL registers for GMAC0
do not need the bits for delay on the MAC side.
This is possible due to fixes in at803x driver
since Linux 5.1 and 5.3
**Note on WatchGuard Magic string:**
The OEM upgrade script is a modified version of
the generic Senao sysupgrade script
which is used on EnGenius devices.
On WatchGuard boards produced by Senao,
images are verified using a md5sum checksum of
the upgrade image concatenated with a magic string.
this checksum is then appended to the end of the final image.
This variable does not apply to all the senao devices
so set to null string as default

the upgrade image concatenated with a magic string.
this checksum is then appended to the end of the final image.
This variable does not apply to all the senao devices
so set to null string as default

FCC ID: Q6G-AP300
WatchGuard AP300 is an indoor wireless access point with
1 Gb ethernet port, dual-band wireless,
internal antenna plates, and 802.3at PoE+
this board is a Senao device:
the hardware is equivalent to EnGenius EAP1750
the software is modified Senao SDK which is based on openwrt and uboot
including image checksum verification at boot time,
and a failsafe image that boots if checksum fails
**Specification:**
- QCA9558 SOC MIPS 74kc, 2.4 GHz WMAC, 3x3
- QCA9880 WLAN PCI card 168c:003c, 5 GHz, 3x3, 26dBm
- AR8035-A PHY RGMII GbE with PoE+ IN
- 40 MHz clock
- 32 MB FLASH S25FL512S
- 2x 64 MB RAM NT5TU32M16
- UART console J10, populated
- GPIO watchdog GPIO 16, 20 sec toggle
- 6 antennas 5 dBi, internal omni-directional plates
- 5 LEDs power, eth0 link/data, 2G, 5G
- 1 button reset
**MAC addresses:**
MAC address labeled as ETH
Only one Vendor MAC address in flash at art 0x0
eth0 ETH *:3c art 0x0
phy1 ---- *:3d ---
phy0 ---- *:3e ---
**Serial console access:**
For this board, its not certain whether UART is possible
it is likely that software is blocking console access
the RX line on the board for UART is shorted to ground by resistor R176
the resistors R175 and R176 are next to the UART RX pin at J10
however console output is garbage even after this fix
**Installation:**
Method 1: OEM webpage
use OEM webpage for firmware upgrade to upload factory.bin
Method 2: root shell access
downgrade XTM firewall to v2.0.0.1
downgrade AP300 firmware: v1.0.1
remove / unpair AP from controller
perform factory reset with reset button
connect ethernet to a computer
login to OEM webpage with default address / pass: wgwap
enable SSHD in OEM webpage settings
access root shell with SSH as user 'root'
modify uboot environment to automatically try TFTP at boot time
(see command below)
rename initramfs-kernel.bin to test.bin
load test.bin over TFTP (see TFTP recovery)
(optionally backup all mtdblocks to have flash backup)
perform a sysupgrade with sysupgrade.bin
NOTE: DHCP is not enabled by default after flashing
**TFTP recovery:**
server ip: 192.168.1.101
reset button seems to do nothing at boot time...
only possible with modified uboot environment,
running this command in the root shell:
fw_setenv bootcmd 'if ping 192.168.1.101; then tftp 0x82000000 test.bin && bootm 0x82000000; else bootm 0x9f0a0000; fi'
and verify that it is correct with
fw_printenv
then, before boot, the device will attempt TFTP from 192.168.1.101
looking for file 'test.bin'
to return uboot environment to normal:
fw_setenv bootcmd 'bootm 0x9f0a0000'
**Return to OEM:**
user should make backup of MTD partitions
and write the backups back to mtd devices
in order to revert to OEM
(see installation method 2)
It may be possible to use sysupgrade
with an OEM image as well...
(not tested)
**OEM upgrade info:**
The OEM upgrade script is at /etc/fwupgrade.sh
OKLI kernel loader is required because the OEM software
expects the kernel to be no greater than 1536k
and the factory.bin upgrade procedure would otherwise
overwrite part of the kernel when writing rootfs.
**Note on eth0 PLL-data:**
The default Ethernet Configuration register values will not work
because of the external AR8035 switch between
the SOC and the ethernet port.
For QCA955x series, the PLL registers for eth0 and eth1
can be see in the DTSI as 0x28 and 0x48 respectively.
Therefore the PLL registers can be read from uboot
for each link speed after attempting tftpboot
or another network action using that link speed
with `md 0x18050028 1` and `md 0x18050048 1`.
The clock delay required for RGMII can be applied
at the PHY side, using the at803x driver `phy-mode`.
Therefore the PLL registers for GMAC0
do not need the bits for delay on the MAC side.
This is possible due to fixes in at803x driver
since Linux 5.1 and 5.3
**Note on WatchGuard Magic string:**
The OEM upgrade script is a modified version of
the generic Senao sysupgrade script
which is used on EnGenius devices.
On WatchGuard boards produced by Senao,
images are verified using a md5sum checksum of
the upgrade image concatenated with a magic string.
this checksum is then appended to the end of the final image.
This variable does not apply to all the senao devices
so set to null string as default
