This adds support for the Netgear WAC510 Insight Managed Smart Cloud
Wireless Access Point, an indoor dual-band, dual-radio 802.11ac
business-class wireless AP with integrated omnidirectional antennae
and two 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports.

For more information see:
<https://www.netgear.com/business/wifi/access-points/wac510>

Specifications:
SoC:        Qualcomm IPQ4018 (DAKOTA) ARM Quad-Core
RAM:        256 MiB
Flash1:     2 MiB Winbond W25Q16JV SPI-NOR
Flash2:     128 MiB Winbond W25N01GVZEIG SPI-NAND
Ethernet:   Built-in IPQ4018 (SoC, QCA8072 PHY), 2x 1000/100/10 port,
            WAN port active IEEE 802.3af/at PoE in
Wireless1:  Built-in IPQ4018 (SoC) 802.11b/g/n 2x2:2, 3 dBi antennae
Wireless2:  Built-in IPQ4018 (SoC) 802.11a/n/ac 2x2:2, 4 dBi antennae
Input:      (Optional) Barrel 12 V 2.5 A Power, Reset button SW1
LEDs:       Power, Insight, WAN PoE, LAN, 2.4G WLAN, 5G WLAN
Serial:     Header J2
1 - 3.3 Volt (Do NOT connect!)
2 - TX
3 - RX
4 - Ground
WARNING: The serial port needs a TTL/RS-232 3.3 volt level converter!
         The Serial settings are 115200-8-N-1.

Installation via Stock Web Interface:
BTW: The default factory console/web interface login user/password are
admin/password.

In the web interface navigating to Management - Maintenance - Upgrade -
'Firmware Upgrade' will show you what is currently installed e.g.:
Manage Firmware
Current Firmware Version: V5.0.10.2
Backup Firmware Version: V1.2.5.11
Under 'Upgrade Options' choose Local (alternatively SFTP would be
available) then click/select 'Browse File' on the right side, choose
openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-netgear_wac510-squashfs-nand-factory.tar
and hit the Upgrade button below. After a minute or two your browser
should indicate completion printing 'Firmware update complete.' and
'Rebooting AP...'.

Note that OpenWrt will use the WAN PoE port as actual WAN port
defaulting to DHCP client but NOT allowing LuCI access, use LAN port
defaulting to 192.168.1.1/24 to access LuCI.

Installation via TFTP Requiring Serial U-Boot Access:
Connect to the device's serial port and hit any key to stop autoboot.
Upload and boot the initramfs based OpenWrt image as follows:
(IPQ40xx) # setenv serverip 192.168.1.1
(IPQ40xx) # setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.2
(IPQ40xx) # tftpboot openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-netgear_wac510-initramfs-fit-uImage.itb
(IPQ40xx) # bootm

Note: This only runs OpenWrt from RAM and has not installed anything
to flash as of yet. One may permanently install OpenWrt as follows:

Check the MTD device number of the active partition:
root@OpenWrt:/# dmesg | grep 'set to be root filesystem'
[    1.010084] mtd: device 9 (rootfs) set to be root filesystem
Upload the factory image ending with .ubi to /tmp (e.g. using scp or
tftp). Then flash the image as follows (substituting the 9 in mtd9
below with whatever number reported above):
root@OpenWrt:/# ubiformat /dev/mtd9 -f /tmp/openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-netgear_wac510-squashfs-nand-factory.ubi
And reboot.

Dual Image Configuration:
The default U-Boot boot command bootipq uses the U-Boot environment
variables primary/secondary to decide which image to boot. E.g.
primary=0, secondary=3800000 uses rootfs while primary=3800000,
secondary=0 uses rootfs_1.
Switching their values changes the active partition. E.g. from within
U-Boot:
(IPQ40xx) # setenv primary 0
(IPQ40xx) # setenv secondary 3800000
(IPQ40xx) # saveenv
Or from a OpenWrt userspace serial/SSH console:
fw_setenv primary 0
fw_setenv secondary 3800000
Note that if you install two copies of OpenWrt then each will have its
independent configuration not like when switching partitions on the
stock firmware.
BTW: The kernel log shows which boot partition is active:
[    2.439050] ubi0: attached mtd9 (name "rootfs", size 56 MiB)
vs.
[    2.978785] ubi0: attached mtd10 (name "rootfs_1", size 56 MiB)
Note: After 3 failed boot attempts it automatically switches partition.

92e60260d5 treewide: sync bootcount scripts across targets
This commit made the following changes to sync all bootcount scripts:

1. use boot() instead of start()
    This script only needs to be executed once when boot is complete.
    use boot() to make this explicit.

2. drop sourcing of /lib/functions.sh
    This is aready done in /etc/rc.common.

3. ramips: replace board name checking with a case

Installation:

  "Factory" images may be installed directly through the OEM GUI.

Hardware Highlights:

  * IPQ4019 at 717 MHz (4 CPUs)
  * 256 MB NAND (Winbond W29N02GV, 8-bit parallel)
  * 256 MB RAM
  * Three, fully-functional radios; `iw phy` reports (FCC/US, -CT):
      * 2.4 GHz radio at 30 dBm
      * 5 GHz radio on ch. 36-64 at 23 dBm
      * 5 GHz radio on ch. 100-144 at 23 dBm (DFS), 149-165 at 30 dBm
      #{ managed } <= 16, #{ AP, mesh point } <= 16, #{ IBSS } <= 1
      * All two-stream, MCS 0-9
  * 4x GigE LAN, 1x GigE Internet Ethernet jacks with port lights
  * USB3, single port on rear with LED
  * WPS and reset buttons
  * Four status lights on top
  * Serial pads internal (unpopulated)

  "Linksys Dallas WiFi AP router based on Qualcomm AP DK07.1-c1"

Implementation Notes:

  The OEM flash layout is preserved at this time with 3 MB kernel and
  ~69 MB UBIFS for each firmware version. The sysdiag (1 MB) and
  syscfg (56 MB) partitions are untouched, available as read-only.

Serial Connectivity:

  Serial connectivity is *not* required to flash.

  Serial may be accessed by opening the device and connecting
  a 3.3-V adapter using 115200, 8n1. U-Boot access is good,
  including the ability to load images over TFTP and
  either run or flash them.

  Looking at the top of the board, from the front of the unit,
  J3 can be found on the right edge of the board, near the rear

Unimplemented:

    * serial1 "ttyQHS0" (serial0 works as console)
    * Bluetooth; Qualcomm CSR8811 (potentially conected to serial1)

Other Notes:

    https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Linksys_EA8300 states

        FCC docs also cover the Linksys EA8250. According to the
	RF Test Report BT BR+EDR, "All models are identical except
	for the EA8300 supports 256QAM and the EA8250 disable 256QAM."

b3770eaca3 mtd: base-files: Unify dual-firmware devices (Linksys)
Consistently handle boot-count reset and upgrade across
ipq40xx, ipq806x, kirkwood, mvebu

Dual-firmware devices often utilize a specific MTD partition
to record the number of times the boot loader has initiated boot.

Most of these devices are NAND, typically with a 2k erase size.
When this code was ported to the ipq40xx platform, the device in hand
used NOR for this partition, with a 16-byte "record" size. As the
implementation of `mtd resetbc` is by-platform, the hard-coded nature
of this change prevented proper operation of a NAND-based device.

* Unified the "NOR" variant with the rest of the Linksys variants

* Added logging to indicate success and failure

* Provided a meaningful return value for scripting

* "Protected" the use of `mtd resetbc` in start-up scripts so that
   failure does not end the boot sequence

* Moved Linksys-specific actions into common `/etc/init.d/bootcount`

For upgrade, these devices need to determine which partition to flash,
as well as set certain U-Boot envirnment variables to change the next
boot to the newly flashed version.

* Moved upgrade-related environment changes out of bootcount

* Combined multiple flashes of environment into single one

* Current-partition detection now handles absence of `boot_part`

Runtime-tested: Linksys EA8300

Tested and working:
- USB (requires extra packages)
- LAN Ethernet (Correct MAC-address)
- WAN Ethernet (Correct MAC-address)
- 2.4 GHz WiFi (Correct MAC-address)
- 5 GHz WiFi (Correct MAC-address)
- Factory installation from Web UI
- OpenWRT sysupgrade
- LED
- Reset Button

Need Testing:
- WPS button

Install via Web UI:
- Attach to a LAN port on the router.
- Connect to the Linksys Smart WiFi Page (default 192.168.1.1) and login
- Select the connectivity tab on the left
- In the manual update box on the right
- Select browse, and browse to
  openwrt-ipq40xx-linksys_ea6350v3-squashfs-factory.bin
- Click update.
- Read and accept the warning
- The router LED will start blinking. When the router LED goes solid, you
  can now navigate to 192.168.1.1 to your new OpenWrt installation.

Sysupgrade:
- Flash the sysupgrade image as usual. Please: try to do a reset everytime
  you can (doing it with LuCI is easy and can be done in the same step).

Recovery (Automatic):
- If the device fails to boot after install or upgrade, whilst the unit is
  turned on:
1 - Wait 15 seconds
2 - Switch Off and Wait 10 seconds
3 - Switch on
4 - Repeat steps 1 to 3, 3 times then go to 5.
5 - U-boot will have now erased the failed update and switched back to the
    last working firmware - you should be able to access your router on
    LAN.

Recovery (Manual):
- The steps for manual recovery are the same as the generic u-boot tftp
  client method.

Back To Stock:
- Use the generic recovery using the tftp client method to flash the
  "civic.img". Also you can strip-and-pad the original image and use
  the generic "mtd" method by flashing over the "kernel" partition.
* Just be careful to flash in the partition that the device is currently
  booted.
