7422c7a6fa ath79: add support for TP-Link TL-WPA8630P (EU) v2.1
This adds support for the TP-Link TL-WPA8630P (EU) in its v2.1
version. The only unique aspect for the firmware compared to v2
layout is the partition layout.

Note that while the EU version has different partitioning for
v2.0 and v2.1, the v2.1 (AU) is supported by the v2-int image.

If you plan to use this device, make sure you have a look at
the Wiki page to check whether the device is supported and
which image needs to be taken.

Specifications
--------------

  - QCA9563 750MHz, 2.4GHz WiFi
  - QCA9888 5GHz WiFi
  - 8MiB SPI Flash
  - 128MiB RAM
  - 3 GBit Ports (QCA8337)
  - PLC (QCA7550)

Installation
------------

Installation is possible from the OEM web interface. Make sure to
install the latest OEM firmware first, so that the PLC firmware is
at the latest version. However, please also check the Wiki page
for hints according to altered partitioning between OEM firmware
revisions.

Notes
-----

The OEM firmware has 0x620000 to 0x680000 unassigned, so we leave
this empty as well. It is complicated enough already ...

d7fb7ac278 ath79: increase kernel partition for ar9344 TP-Link CPE/WBS
The kernel has become too big again for the ar9344-based TP-Link
CPE/WBS devices which still have no firmware-partition splitter.

Current buildbots produce a kernel size of about 2469 kiB, while
the partition is only 2048 kiB (0x200000). Therefore, increase it
to 0x300000 to provide enough room for this and, hopefully, the
next kernel.

34271d38ae tools/firmware-utils: use UTC for image timestamps
By using localtime() to determine the timestamp that goes into factory

Use gmtime() instead, which results in more reproducible images.

6411eac5da ipq40xx: add factory image for EnGenius ENS620EXT
Extended  mksenaofw to support new "capwap" header structure.
This supports flashing from factory 3.0.0, 3.0.1, 3.1.0 and 3.5.5
firmware.

Note that the factory image format changes for 3.1 and later firmware,
and that the 3.1.0 and 3.5.5 Engenius firmware will refuse the
factory_30.bin file. Similarly, the 3.0.0 and 3.0.1 Engenius firmware
will refuse the factory_35.bin file.

Flashing from the Engenius 3.1.0 firmware with the factory_35.bin
firmware has not been tested, as 3.1.0 firmware (Engenius "middleFW")
is only intended as part of the upgrade path to 3.5.5 firmware.

Modified ipq40xx image Makefile to appropriately invoke mksenaofw
with new parameters to configure the capwap header.

Note that there is currently no method to return to factory firmware,
so this is a one-way street.

Path from factory 3.0.0 and 3.0.1 (EnGenius) software to OpenWrt is
to navigate to 192.168.1.1 on the stock firmware and navigate to the
firmware menu. Then copy the URL you have for that page, something like
http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/luci/;stok=12345abcdef/admin/system/flashops
and replace the trailing /admin/system/flashops with just /easyflashops

You should then be presented with a simple "Firmware Upgrade" page.
On that page, BE SURE TO CLEAR the "Keep Settings:" checkbox.

Choose the openwrt-ipq40xx-engenius_ens620ext-squashfs-factory_30.bin,
click "Upgrade" and on the following page select "Proceed".

Path from factory 3.5.5 (EnGenius) software to OpenWrt is simply to
use the stock firmware update menu. Choose the
openwrt-ipq40xx-engenius_ens620ext-squashfs-factory_35.bin and click
"Upload" and "Proceed".

The device should then flash the OpenWrt firmware and reboot. Note
that this resets the device to a default configuration with Wi-Fi
disabled, LAN1/PoE acting as a WAN port (running DHCP client) and LAN2
acting as a LAN port with a DHCP server on 192.168.1.x (AP is at
192.168.1.1)

26a016731d firmware-utils: mksercommfw: overhaul image creation
Move the zip compression into a build recipe. Pad the image using the
existing build recipes as well to remove duplicate functionality

Change the code to append header and footer in two steps. Allow to use a
fixed filename as the netgear update image does.

Use a fixed timestamp within the zip archive to make the images
reproducible.

Due to the changes we are now compatible to the gnu89 c standard used by
default on the buildbots and we don't need to force a more recent
standard anymore.

Beside all changes, the footer still looks wrong in compare to the
netgear update image.

262b885b83 ramips: use new image build code for D-Link DCS-930 family
Drop the factory images and the firmware tool to create them. They don't
work any more, since the factory image has an uImage header covering the
whole kernel + rootfs. This way the uImage splitter will not be able to
find the rootfs and the kernel will panic later on.

The factory images were most likely added at a time the board had
distinct partitions for kernel and rootfs.

8e9a59a6b9 build: add mkrasimage
The current make-ras.sh image generation script for the ZyXEL NBG6617
has portability issues with bash. Because of this, factory images are
currently not built correctly by the OpenWRT buildbots.

This commit replaces the make-ras.sh by C-written mkrasimage.

The new mkrasimage is also compatible with other ZyXEL devices using
the ras image-format.
This is not tested with the NBG6616 but it correctly builds the
header for ZyXEL factory image.

In the kernel partition, the kernel is compressed in a regular tp-link

and booting, only four fields are filled in the header:
Vendor, version, kernel load address and kernel entry point.
mktplinkfw-kernel is a simpler version of mktpolinkfw that generate such
images. It also specifies the hardware id (as it is in the product info
section), so when doing a sysupgrade - the existing code will check for

f318ae995a firmware-utils: add new tool tplink-safeloader for the new TP-LINK Pharos devices (CPE210/220/510/520)
The new TP-LINK Pharos series uses a new bootloader, the "TP-LINK Safeloader".
It uses an advanced firmware image format, containing an image partition table
and a flash partition table (and image partitions are mapped to the
corresponding flash partitions). The exact image format is documented in the
source code.

Furthermore, the bootloader expects the kernel image as an ELF executable.

575127fe1c lantiq: DGN3500 (all known variants) factory and sysupgrade image building support
This patch adds factory image building for the DGN3500, all variants,
and fixes sysupgrade images to make them play nice with the sercomm
secondary boot loader.

The factory images can be used directly in the update dialog in the
interface of the stock firmware and via the special Sercomm bootmode
and a special windows flashing utility (allegedly present in the CD
that came with the device -- but it's also compatible with the NSLU2
Upgrade_207_XP utility.) The special bootmode can be activated by
turning the device on while holding the reset button pressed, then
releasing it when the power led starts blinking red and green. Please
notice that if using the 207 utility, it will always report that the
flashing failed even though it completed successfully. Just power
cycle the router manually after the utility reports the failure and
OpenWRT will boot. This same utility (despite reporting failure in
this case too) can revert a DGN3500 (any variant) to the appropriate
stock Netgear firmware.

This patch is a heavily modified version of a package I found on the
OpenWRT forum with a couple fixes and features added -- mainly the
generation of all the different image variants to support all known
models directly, atm known variants are AnnexA-WW, AnnexA-NA and
AnnexB-DE/GR.

I tested the patch successfully on my device.
