The stock firmware and bootloader only accept uImage with names that
match certain patterns. This patch enables OpenWrt installation from
stock firmware without having to reflash the bootloader or access the
UART console.
Installation via web interface:
1. Flash **initramfs** image through the stock web interface.
2. Boot into OpenWrt and perform sysupgrade with sysupgrade image.

ALFA Network Quad-E4G is a universal Wi-Fi/4G platform, which offers
three miniPCIe (PCIe, USB 2.0, SIM) and a single M.2 B-key (dual-SIM,
USB 3.0) slots, RTC and five Gigabit Ethernet ports with PoE support.
Specification:
- MT7621A (880 MHz)
- 256/512 MB of RAM (DDR3)
- 16/32+ MB of FLASH (SPI NOR)
- optional second SPI flash (8-pin WSON/SOIC)
- 1x microSD (SDXC) flash card reader
- 5x 10/100/100 Mbps Ethernet, with passive PoE support (24 V) in LAN1
- optional 802.3at/af PoE module for WAN
- 3x miniPCIe slot (with PCIe and USB 2.0 buses, micro SIM and 5 V)
- 1x M.2/NGFF B-key 3042 (USB 3.0/2.0, mini + micro SIM)
- RTC (TI BQ32002, I2C bus) with backup battery (CR2032)
- external hardware watchdog (EM Microelectronic EM6324)
- 1x USB 2.0 Type-A
- 1x micro USB Type-B for system serial console (Holtek HT42B534)
- 11x LED (5 for Ethernet, 5 driven by GPIO, 1x power indicator)
- 3x button (reset, user1, user2)
- 1x I2C (4-pin, 2.54 mm pitch) header on PCB
- 4x SIM (6-pin, 2.00 mm pitch) headers on PCB
- 2x UART2/3 (4-pin, 2.54 mm pitch) headers on PCB
- 1x mechanical power switch
- 1x DC jack with lock (24 V)
Other:
- U-Boot selects default SIM slot, based on value of 'default_sim' env
variable: '1' or unset -> SIM1 (mini), '2' -> SIM2 (micro). This board
has additional logic circuit for M.2 SIM switching. The 'sim-select'
will work only if both SIM slots are occupied. Otherwise, always slot
with SIM inside is selected, no matter 'sim-select' value.
- U-Boot enables power in all three miniPCIe and M.2 slots before
loading the kernel
- this board supports 'dual image' feature (controlled by 'dual_image'
U-Boot environment variable)
- all three miniPCIe slots have additional 5 V supply on pins 47 and 49
- the board allows to install up to two oversized miniPCIe cards (vendor
has dedicated MediaTek MT7615N/D cards for this board)
- this board has additional logic circuit controlling PERSTn pins inside
miniPCIe slots. By default, PERSTn (GPIO19) is routed to all miniPCIe
slots but setting GPIO22 to high allows PERSTn control per slot, using
GPIO23-25 (value is inverted)
You can use the 'sysupgrade' image directly in vendor firmware which is
based on OpenWrt (make sure to not preserve settings - use 'sysupgrade
-n -F ...' command). Alternatively, use web recovery mode in U-Boot:
1. Power the device with reset button pressed, the modem LED will start
blinking slowly and after ~3 seconds, when it starts blinking faster,
you can release the button.
2. Setup static IP 192.168.1.2/24 on your PC.
3. Go to 192.168.1.1 in browser and upload 'sysupgrade' image.

This patch renames and reassembles the common definition for
Netgear R6xxx devices in mt7621.mk. The following goals should be
achieved:
- Give the node a more generic name instead of adding devices to it
- Use the common definition in the (less) similar R6220 node
- Include/exclude settings into the common definition so the common
node contains the common definitions
- Prepare for support of R6700 v2

Bootloader won't accept any serial input unless "boot_wait" u-boot
environment variable is changed to "on". Vendor firmware (looks like
an illegal OpenWrt fork) won't accept any serial input unless
"uart_en" is set to "1". Tricks to force u-boot to use default
environment do not help as it's restricted in the same way.
With bootloader unlocked the easiest way would be to TFTP the
sysupgrade image or to sysupgrade after loading an initramfs one.
For porting the flash contents were changed externally with an SPI
programmer (after lifting Vcc flash IC pin away from the PCB).

This cosmetical patch is just meant to make comparing/checking
IMAGE_SIZE values easier.
Signed-off-by: Adrian Schmutzler <freifunk@adrianschmutzler.de>
There are frequent examples of the ralink_default_fw_size_xxx
variables being used to "roughly" set flash size without caring
about the actual size of the firmware partition.
To discourage this behavior, this patch removes the variables and
just sets IMAGE_SIZE by its numeric value for each target.
Signed-off-by: Adrian Schmutzler <freifunk@adrianschmutzler.de>
Currently, ramips target defines 0x7b0000 as default IMAGE_SIZE
for all devices in ramips target, i.e. this will be set if a
device does not specify IMAGE_SIZE itself.
From 92 devices using that default due to a "missing" IMAGE_SIZE,
14 were incorrect by a small amount (i.e. still "8M" flash) and
12 were completely off ("16M", "4M", ...).
This patch thus removes the _default_ IMAGE_SIZE and defines
IMAGE_SIZE for each device individually. This should indicate to
people supporting new devices that this parameter has to be cared
about.
For the present code, this patch is cosmetical.
Signed-off-by: Adrian Schmutzler <freifunk@adrianschmutzler.de>
In ramips, there are the following predefined values for IMAGE_SIZE
ralink_default_fw_size_4M 3866624 3776k 0x3B0000
ralink_default_fw_size_8M 8060928 7872k 0x7B0000
ralink_default_fw_size_16M 16121856 15744k 0xF60000
ralink_default_fw_size_32M 33226752 32448k 0x1FB0000
Out of those, the "16M" value is obviously odd, as it provides more
room for the remaining partitions than the tree others.
Of the devices in all subtargets, there are actually > 50 that have
a firmware partition with 0xFB0000 size, while only 5 (!) have
0xF60000. From the former, many are set to
ralink_default_fw_size_16M anyway, although it is wrong at the
present point.
Consequently, it makes sense to change ralink_default_fw_size_16M
to 0xFB0000, and to update IMAGE_SIZE for the 5 devices with
0xF60000.

TFTP recovery to stock firmware:
Unfortunately, I can't find an easy way to recover the RE
without opening the device and using modified binaries. The
TFTP upload will only work if selected from u-boot, which
means you have to open the device and attach to the serial
console. The TFTP update procedure does *not* accept the
published vendor firmware binaries. However, it allows to
flash kernel + rootfs binaries, and this works if you have
a backup of the original contents of the flash. It's probably
possible to create special image out of the vendor binaries
and use that as recovery image.

3.3V - GND - TX - RX / 57600-8N1
3.3V is the nearest one to the antenna connectors
Installation
------------
Update the factory image via the Netgear web-interfaces (by default:
192.168.1.250/24).
You can also use the factory image with the nmrpflash tool.

- Former "mir3g" board name becomes "xiaomi,mir3g".
- Reorder some entries to maintain alphabetical order.
- Change DTS so status LEDs (yellow/red/blue) mimic

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.
