Because a bug in handling partial erase blocks in 4.19 kernel, using
sysupgrade images will hard brick devices that use RedBoot bootloader
and have "FIS directory" with "RedBoot config" on the same erase block.
Since flashing the devices from bootloader is safe, and to not cause a
situation where external chip programmer or JTAG is needed, disable
sysupgrade images for affected boards while creating kernel.bin and
rootfs.bin for jjPlus JA76PF2 board, which doesn't have factory image.
To set up the JA76PF2 board follow "Installation" instructions in b3a0c97
("ath79: add support for jjPlus JA76PF2") except the part of loading
initramfs image and using sysupgrade image for flashing (point 6 and 7).
Enter following commands to flash the board from bootloader:
fis init
load -r -b 0x80060000 <openwrt_kernel_image_name>
fis create linux
load -r -b %{FREEMEMLO} <openwrt_rootfs_image_name>
fis create rootfs
fis load -l linux
exec -c ""
For RouterStations use TFTP recovery procedure.

This allows the definition of DEVICE_VENDOR, DEVICE_MODEL and
DEVICE_VARIANT. All three are merged together to look the same as the
current DEVICE_TITLE. Also, if DEVICE_TITLE is set it's directly used as
a *fallback* for devices which weren't upgraded yet.
This is based on the work of @sudhanshu16.
The motivation is to create JSON files based on provided metadata,

The Ubiquiti Network airCube ISP is a cube shaped 2.4 GHz with internal
2x2 MIMO antennas. It can be supplied via a USB connector or via PoE.
There are for 10/100 Mbps ports (1 * WAN + 3 * LAN). There is an
optional PoE passthrough from the first LAN port to the WAN port.
SoC: Qualcomm / Atheros QCA9533-BL3A
RAM: 64 MB DDR2
Flash: 16 MB SPI NOR
Ethernet: 4x 10/100 Mbps (1 WAN + 3 LAN)
LEDS: 1x via a SPI controller (not yet supported)
Buttons: 1x Reset
Serial: 1x (only RX and TX); 115200 baud, 8N1
Missing points:
- LED not yet supported
- Factory upgrade via web IF or TFTP recovery not yet supported
(Needs RSA signed images, for details see PR#1958)
The serial port is on a four pin connextor labeled J1 and located
between Ethernet and USB connector. The pinout is:
1. 3V3 (out)
2. Rx (in)
3. Tx (out)
4. GND
Upgrading via serial port / U-Boot:
- Connect the serial port via a level converter
- Power the system and stop U-Boot with pressing any key when `Hit any
key to stop autoboot` is displayed. Note: Pressing space multiple
times untill U-Boot reaches that location works well.
- Connect a PC with the IP 192.168.1.100 (or some other in that net)
running a TFTP-Server to one of the LAN ports. Copy the sysupgrade
image to the server.
- Set the U-Boot server IP with
setenv serverip 192.168.1.100
- Load the flash image to RAM with
tftpboot 0x81000000 sysupgrade.bin
- Erase the flash with
erase 0x9f050000 0x9ffaffff
- Write the new flash content with

The NanoBeam is a small AR9342 based directional 5 GHz AC CPE with hardware
almost identical to the Ubiquiti NanoStation AC loco. Over the NanoStation
AC loco it has 5 additional LEDs. Four of those LEDs are used as rssi
indicators, the fifth LED is used as an ethernet link/activity indicator.
CPU: Atheros AR9342 SoC
RAM: 64 MB DDR2
Flash: 16 MB NOR SPI
WLAN: QCA988X
Ports: 1x GbE
Flashing procedure is identical to the NanoStation AC loco and can be performed
either via serial or the factory firmware upgrade.
Serial flashing:
1. Connect to serial header on device (8N1 115200)
2. Power on device and enter uboot console
3. Set up tftp server serving an openwrt initramfs build
4. Load initramfs build using the command tftpboot in the uboot cli
5. Boot the loaded image using the command bootm
6. Copy squashfs openwrt sysupgrade build to the booted device
7. Use mtd to write sysupgrade to partition "firmware"
8. Reboot and enjoy
Flashing through factory firmware:
1. Ensure firmware version v8.5.0.36727 is installed. Up/downgrade to this exact version.
2. Patch fwupdate.real binary using `hexdump -Cv /bin/ubntbox | sed 's/14 40 fe fe/00 00 00 00/g' | hexdump -R > /tmp/fwupdate.real`
3. Make the patched fwupdate.real binary executable using `chmod +x /tmp/fwupdate.real`
4. Copy the squashfs factory image to /tmp on the device
5. Flash OpenWRT using `/tmp/fwupdate.real -m <squashfs-factory image>`
6. Wait for the device to reboot

In PR [1] introducing initial support for Ubiquiti RouterStation boards,
Mathias Kresin suggested to replace the combined sysupgrade image with
tarball generated by sysupgrade-tar.sh. This would simplify deployment
of sysupgrade as the kernel size (needed to update FIS partition) could
be simply calculated on the fly instead of reading value from combined
image header. Unfortunately this would break sysupgrade compatibility
between ar71xx image and ath79 image. Therefore this commit creates
migration path to use new sysuprade image, it adds code to accept both
of them at this moment. The plan is to keep it until new stable version
is released. Then the image recipe should be changed to new format and
compatibility code for old image removed.

Flashing instructions using recovery method over TFTP
1. Unplug the ethernet cable from the router.
2. Using paper clip press and hold the router's reset button. Make sure
you can feel it depressed by the paper clip. Do not release the button
until step 4.
3. While keeping the reset button pressed in, plug the ethernet cable
back into the AP. Keep the reset button depressed until you see the
device's LEDs flashing in upgrade mode (alternating LED1/LED3 and
LED2/LED4), this may take up to 25 seconds.
4. You may release the reset button, now the device should be in TFTP

Ubiquity allows flashing of unsigned factory images via TFTP recovery
method[1]. They claim in airOS v6.0.7 release changelog[2] following:
All future airOS versions will be signed in this way and not allow
unsigned firmware to be loaded except via TFTP.
U-boot bootloader on M-XW devices expects factory image revision
version in specific format. On airOS v6.1.7 with `U-Boot 1.1.4-s1039
(May 24 2017 - 15:58:18)` bootloader checks if the revision major(?)
number is actually a number, but in currently generated images there's
OpenWrt text and so the check fails:

This adds a shared ar7161_ubnt_routerstation.dtsi as well as two other
.dts files that utilize it, ar7161_ubnt_routerstation.dts and
ar7161_ubnt_routerstation-pro.dts.
The modifications to generic-ubnt.mk, config-default, and base-files
necessary for image generation, parsing RedBoot FIS partitions, network
configuration, and sysupgrade are also included.
This reintroduces vital bits from platform_do_upgrade_combined() and its
supporting functions to /lib/upgrade/platform.sh, which were previously
removed from ath79 in 3e9d9f6225 "ath79:
sysupgrade: drop unused platform checks". The new function is called
"routerstation_do_upgrade" and will *only* work for the RouterStation
series of boards. It does however retain the ability to downgrade (e.g.
from master -> 17.01.x using sysupgrade -F).
All hardware is functional including the AR8216 switch (for the Pro),
wireless via ath5k/ath9k using the miniPCI slots, flash, USB, button,
and LED.
Switch and LAN/WAN configuration is the same as it is with the
equivalent ar71xx targets. MAC addresses are assigned based upon the
content stored in the RedBoot config partition.
Flashing via both sysupgrade and TFTP has been confirmed to work. Also,
the initramfs images are now raw .bin files instead of being wrapped in
a uImage (as they currently are in ar71xx), which makes them bootable
with RedBoot.
One notable difference to ar71xx is the inclusion of the RedBoot
"fconfig" utility (analogous to U-Boot’s fw_printenv/fw_setenv) in
DEVICE_PACKAGES. The FIS partitions are probed using the RedBoot MTD
parser’s DT binding, whose proper usage is mutually exclusive to
defining a separate fixed-partitions node for "RedBoot config". This
config partition contains the board's base MAC address. The lack of a
hard-coded flash location means that the mtd-mac-address property cannot
be used in the .dts, so instead fconfig is used to read the MAC
addresses from flash in userspace during first boot.
