f314debd4f ath79: add support for Huawei AP5030DN
Huawei AP5030DN is a dual-band, dual-radio 802.11ac Wave 1 3x3 MIMO
enterprise access point with two Gigabit Ethernet ports and PoE
support.

Hardware highlights:
- CPU: QCA9550 SoC at 720MHz
- RAM: 256MB DDR2
- Flash: 32MB SPI-NOR
- Wi-Fi 2.4GHz: QCA9550-internal radio
- Wi-Fi 5GHz: QCA9880 PCIe WLAN SoC
- Ethernet 1: 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet through Broadcom B50612E PHY
- Ethernet 2: 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet through Marvell 88E1510 PHY
- PoE: input through Ethernet 1 port
- Standalone 12V/2A power input
- Serial console externally available through RJ45 port
- External watchdog: SGM706 (1.6s timeout)

Serial console:
  9600n8 (9600 baud, no stop bits, no parity, 8 data bits)

MAC addresses:
  Each device has 32 consecutive MAC addresses allocated by
  the vendor, which don't overlap between devices.
  This was confirmed with multiple devices with consecutive
  serial numbers.
  The MAC address range starts with the address on the label.
  To be able to distinguish between the interfaces,
  the following MAC address scheme is used:
    - eth0 = label MAC
    - eth1 = label MAC + 1
    - radio0 (Wi-Fi 5GHz) = label MAC + 2
    - radio1 (Wi-Fi 2.4GHz) = label MAC + 3

Installation:
0. Connect some sort of RJ45-to-USB adapter to "Console" port of the AP

1. Power up the AP

2. At prompt "Press f or F  to stop Auto-Boot in 3 seconds",
   do what they say.
   Log in with default admin password "admin@huawei.com".

3. Boot the OpenWrt initramfs from TFTP using the hidden script
   "run ramboot". Replace IP address as needed:

   > setenv serverip 192.168.1.10
   > setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
   > setenv rambootfile
     openwrt-ath79-generic-huawei_ap5030dn-initramfs-kernel.bin
   > saveenv
   > run ramboot

4. Optional but recommended as the factory firmware cannot
   be downloaded publicly:
   Back up contents of "firmware" partition using the web interface or ssh:

   $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd11 > huawei_ap5030dn_fw_backup.bin

5. Run sysupgrade using sysupgrade image. OpenWrt
   shall boot from flash afterwards.

Return to factory firmware (using firmware upgrade package downloaded from
non-public Huawei website):
1. Start a TFTP server in the directory where
   the firmware upgrade package is located

2. Boot to u-boot as described above

3. Install firmware upgrade package and format the config partitions:

   > update system FatAP5X30XN_SOMEVERSION.bin
   > format_fs

Return to factory firmware (from previously created backup):
1. Copy over the firmware partition backup to /tmp,
   for example using scp

2. Use sysupgrade with force to restore the backup:
   sysupgrade -F huawei_ap5030dn_fw_backup.bin

3. Boot AP to U-Boot as described above

Quirks and known issues
-----------------------

- On initial power-up, the Huawei-modified bootloader suspends both
ethernet PHYs (it sets the "Power Down" bit in the MII control
register). Unfortunately, at the time of the initial port, the kernel
driver for the B50612E/BCM54612E PHY behind eth0 doesn't have a resume
callback defined which would clear this bit. This makes the PHY unusable
since it remains suspended forever. This is why the backported kernel
patches in this commit are required which add this callback and for
completeness also a suspend callback.

- The stock firmware has a semi dual boot concept where the primary
kernel uses a squashfs as root partition and the secondary kernel uses
an initramfs. This dual boot concept is circumvented on purpose to gain
more flash space and since the stock firmware's flash layout isn't
compatible with mtdsplit.

- The external watchdog's timeout of 1.6s is very hard to satisfy
during bootup. This is why the GPIO15 pin connected to the watchdog input
is configured directly in the LZMA loader to output the CPU_CLK/4 signal
which keeps the watchdog happy until the wdt-gpio kernel driver takes
over. Because it would also take too long to read the whole kernel image
from flash, the uImage header only includes the loader which then reads
the kernel image from flash after GPIO15 is configured.

2. Connect to the device using SSH.

   $ ssh ubnt@192.168.1.20

3. Disable the write-protect

   $ echo "5edfacbf" > /proc/ubnthal/.uf

4. Verify kernel0 and kernel1 match mtd2 and mtd3

   $ cat /proc/mtd

5. Write the sysupgrade image to kernel0 and kernel1

   $ dd if=/tmp/firmware.bin of=/dev/mtdblock2
   $ dd if=/tmp/firmware.bin of=/dev/mtdblock3

==============

SoC: QCA9531 650MHz
RAM: 128MiB
Flash: 32MiB SPI NOR
LAN: 1x 10/100MBit
WAN: 1x 10/100MBit
LTE: MDM9607 USB 2.0 (rndis configuration)
WiFi: 802.11n (SoC integrated)

MAC address assignment
======================

There are three MAC addresses stored in the flash ROM, the assignment
follows stock. The MAC on the label is the WiFi MAC address.

Installation (TFTP)
===================

1. Connect serial console
2. Configure static IP to 192.168.1.112
3. Put OpenWrt factory.bin file as firmware-system.bin
4. Press Power + WPS and plug in power
5. Keep buttons pressed until TFTP requests are visible
6. Wait for the system to finish flashing and wait for reboot
7. Bootup will fail as the kernel offset is wrong
8. Run "setenv bootcmd bootm 0x9f150000"
9. Reset board and enjoy OpenWrt

Installation (without UART)
===========================

Installation without UART is a bit tricky and requires several steps too
long for the commit message. Basic steps:

1. Create configure backup
2. Patch backup file to enable SSH
3. Login via SSH and configure the new bootcmd
3. Flash OpenWrt factory.bin image manually (sysupgrade doesn't work)

More detailed instructions will be provided on the Wiki page.

12f52336d2 ath79: Add Aruba AP-175 support
This board is very similar to the Aruba AP-105, but is
outdoor-first. It is very similar to the MSR2000 (though certain
MSR2000 models have a different PHY[^1]).

A U-Boot replacement is required to install OpenWrt on these
devices[^2].

Specifications
--------------
* Device:	Aruba AP-175
* SoC:		Atheros AR7161 680 MHz MIPS
* RAM:		128MB - 2x Mira P3S12D40ETP
* Flash:	16MB MXIC MX25L12845EMI-10G (SPI-NOR)
* WiFi:		2 x DNMA-H92 Atheros AR9220-AC1A 802.11abgn
* ETH:		IC+ IP1001 Gigabit + PoE PHY
* LED:		2x int., plus 12 ext. on TCA6416 GPIO expander
* Console:	CP210X linking USB-A Port to CPU console @ 115200
* RTC:		DS1374C, with internal battery
* Temp:		LM75 temperature sensor

Factory installation:

- Needs a u-boot replacement. The process is almost identical to that
  of the AP105, except that the case is easier to open, and that you
  need to compile u-boot from a slightly different branch:
  https://github.com/Hurricos/u-boot-ap105/tree/ap175

  The instructions for performing an in-circuit reflash with an
  SPI-Flasher like a CH314A can be found on the OpenWrt Wiki
  (https://openwrt.org/toh/aruba/ap-105); in addition a detailed guide
  may be found on YouTube[^3].

- Once u-boot has been replaced, a USB-A-to-A cable may be used to
  connect your PC to the CP210X inside the AP at 115200 baud; at this
  point, the normal u-boot serial flashing procedure will work (set up
  networking; tftpboot and boot an OpenWrt initramfs; sysupgrade to
  OpenWrt proper.)

- There is no built-in functionality to revert back to stock firmware,
  because the AP-175 has been declared by the vendor[^4] end-of-life
  as of 31 Jul 2020. If for some reason you wish to return to stock
  firmware, take a backup of the 16MiB flash before flashing u-boot.

0eebc6f0dd ath79: support Ruckus ZoneFlex 7341/7343/7363
Ruckus ZoneFlex 7363 is a dual-band, dual-radio 802.11n 2x2 MIMO enterprise
access point. ZoneFlex 7343 is the single band variant of 7363
restricted to 2.4GHz, and ZoneFlex 7341 is 7343 minus two Fast Ethernet
ports.

Hardware highligts:
- CPU: Atheros AR7161 SoC at 680 MHz
- RAM: 64MB DDR
- Flash: 16MB SPI-NOR
- Wi-Fi 2.4GHz: AR9280 PCI 2x2 MIMO radio with external beamforming
- Wi-Fi 5GHz: AR9280 PCI 2x2 MIMO radio with external beamforming
- Ethernet 1: single Gigabit Ethernet port through Marvell 88E1116R gigabit PHY
- Ethernet 2: two Fast Ethernet ports through Realtek RTL8363S switch,
  connected with Fast Ethernet link to CPU.
- PoE: input through Gigabit port
- Standalone 12V/1A power input
- USB: optional single USB 2.0 host port on the -U variants.

Serial console: 115200-8-N-1 on internal H1 header.
Pinout:

H1 ----------
   |1|x3|4|5|
   ----------

Pin 1 is near the "H1" marking.
1 - RX
x - no pin
3 - VCC (3.3V)
4 - GND
5 - TX

Installation:
- Using serial console - requires some disassembly, 3.3V USB-Serial
  adapter, TFTP server, and removing a single PH1 screw.

0. Connect serial console to H1 header. Ensure the serial converter
   does not back-power the board, otherwise it will fail to boot.

1. Power-on the board. Then quickly connect serial converter to PC and
   hit Ctrl+C in the terminal to break boot sequence. If you're lucky,
   you'll enter U-boot shell. Then skip to point 3.
   Connection parameters are 115200-8-N-1.

2. Allow the board to boot.  Press the reset button, so the board
   reboots into U-boot again and go back to point 1.

3. Set the "bootcmd" variable to disable the dual-boot feature of the
   system and ensure that uImage is loaded. This is critical step, and
   needs to be done only on initial installation.

   > setenv bootcmd "bootm 0xbf040000"
   > saveenv

4. Boot the OpenWrt initramfs using TFTP. Replace IP addresses as needed.
   Use the Gigabit interface, Fast Ethernet ports are not supported
   under U-boot:

   > setenv serverip 192.168.1.2
   > setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
   > tftpboot 0x81000000 openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7363-initramfs-kernel.bin
   > bootm 0x81000000

5. Optional, but highly recommended: back up contents of "firmware" partition:

   $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd1 > ruckus_zf7363_fw_backup.bin

6. Copy over sysupgrade image, and perform actual installation. OpenWrt
   shall boot from flash afterwards:

   $ ssh root@192.168.1.1
   # sysupgrade -n openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7363-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

   After unit boots, it should be available at the usual 192.168.1.1/24.

Return to factory firmware:

1. Copy over the backup to /tmp, for example using scp
2. Unset the "bootcmd" variable:
   fw_setenv bootcmd ""
3. Use sysupgrade with force to restore the backup:
   sysupgrade -F ruckus_zf7363_backup.bin
4. System will reboot.

Quirks and known issues:
- Fast Ethernet ports on ZF7363 and ZF7343 are supported, but management
  features of the RTL8363S switch aren't implemented yet, though the
  switch is visible over MDIO0 bus. This is a gigabit-capable switch, so
  link establishment with a gigabit link partner may take a longer time
  because RTL8363S advertises gigabit, and the port magnetics don't
  support it, so a downshift needs to occur. Both ports are accessible
  at eth1 interface, which - strangely - runs only at 100Mbps itself.
- Flash layout is changed from the factory, to use both firmware image
  partitions for storage using mtd-concat, and uImage format is used to
  actually boot the system, which rules out the dual-boot capability.
- Both radio has its own EEPROM on board, not connected to CPU.
- The stock firmware has dual-boot capability, which is not supported in
  OpenWrt by choice.
  It is controlled by data in the top 64kB of RAM which is unmapped,
  to avoid the interference in the boot process and accidental
  switch to the inactive image, although boot script presence in
  form of "bootcmd" variable should prevent this entirely.
- On some versions of stock firmware, it is possible to obtain root shell,
  however not much is available in terms of debugging facitilies.
  1. Login to the rkscli
  2. Execute hidden command "Ruckus"
  3. Copy and paste ";/bin/sh;" including quotes. This is required only
     once, the payload will be stored in writable filesystem.
  4. Execute hidden command "!v54!". Press Enter leaving empty reply for
     "What's your chow?" prompt.
  5. Busybox shell shall open.
  Source: https://alephsecurity.com/vulns/aleph-2019014
- There is second method to achieve root shell, using command injection
  in the web interface:
  1. Login to web administration interface
  2. Go to Administration > Diagnostics
  3. Enter |telnetd${IFS}-p${IFS}204${IFS}-l${IFS}/bin/sh into "ping"
     field
  4. Press "Run test"
  5. Telnet to the device IP at port 204
  6. Busybox shell shall open.

4. Boot the OpenWrt initramfs using TFTP. Replace IP addresses as needed:

   > setenv serverip 192.168.1.2
   > setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
   > tftpboot 0x81000000 openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7351-initramfs-kernel.bin
   > bootm 0x81000000

5. Optional, but highly recommended: back up contents of "firmware" partition:

   $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd1 > ruckus_zf7351_fw_backup.bin

6. Copy over sysupgrade image, and perform actual installation. OpenWrt
   shall boot from flash afterwards:

   $ ssh root@192.168.1.1
   # sysupgrade -n openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7351-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

   After unit boots, it should be available at the usual 192.168.1.1/24.

Return to factory firmware:
1. Copy over the backup to /tmp, for example using scp
2. Unset the "bootcmd" variable:
   fw_setenv bootcmd ""
3. Use sysupgrade with force to restore the backup:
   sysupgrade -F ruckus_zf7351_backup.bin
4. System will reboot.

Quirks and known issues:
- Flash layout is changed from the factory, to use both firmware image
  partitions for storage using mtd-concat, and uImage format is used to
  actually boot the system, which rules out the dual-boot capability.
- Both radio has its own EEPROM on board, not connected to CPU.
- The stock firmware has dual-boot capability, which is not supported in
  OpenWrt by choice.
  It is controlled by data in the top 64kB of RAM which is unmapped,
  to avoid the interference in the boot process and accidental
  switch to the inactive image, although boot script presence in
  form of "bootcmd" variable should prevent this entirely.
- On some versions of stock firmware, it is possible to obtain root shell,
  however not much is available in terms of debugging facitilies.
  1. Login to the rkscli
  2. Execute hidden command "Ruckus"
  3. Copy and paste ";/bin/sh;" including quotes. This is required only
     once, the payload will be stored in writable filesystem.
  4. Execute hidden command "!v54!". Press Enter leaving empty reply for
     "What's your chow?" prompt.
  5. Busybox shell shall open.
  Source: https://alephsecurity.com/vulns/aleph-2019014
- There is second method to achieve root shell, using command injection
  in the web interface:
  1. Login to web administration interface
  2. Go to Administration > Diagnostics
  3. Enter |telnetd${IFS}-p${IFS}204${IFS}-l${IFS}/bin/sh into "ping"
     field
  4. Press "Run test"
  5. Telnet to the device IP at port 204
  6. Busybox shell shall open.

5e973dd61f ath79: add eth0 mac and initvals for Engenius EPG5000
Although VLANs are used, the "eth0" device by itself
does not have a valid MAC, so fix that with preinit script.

More initvals added by editing the driver to print switch registers,
after the bootloader sets them but before openwrt changes them.

The register bits needed for the QCA8337 switch
can be read from interrupted boot (tftpboot, bootm)
by adding print lines in the switch driver ar8327.c
before 'qca,ar8327-initvals' is parsed from DTS and written
for example:

  pr_info("0x04 %08x\n", ar8xxx_read(priv, AR8327_REG_PAD0_MODE));

  - QCA8337N SW		4 ports LAN, 1 port WAN
  - 40 MHz clock
  - 16 MB FLASH		MX25L12845EMI-10G
  - 2x 64 MB RAM
  - UART at J1		populated, RX grounded
  - 6 internal antenna plates (omni-directional)
  - 5 LEDs, 1 button (power, 2G, 5G, WAN, WPS) (reset)

**MAC addresses:**

  Base MAC address labeled as "MAC ADDRESS"
  MAC "wanaddr" is not similar to "ethaddr"

  eth0 *:c8 MAC u-boot-env ethaddr
  phy0 *:c8 MAC u-boot-env ethaddr
  phy1 *:c9 --- u-boot-env ethaddr +1
  WAN  *:66:44  u-boot-env wanaddr

**Serial Access:**

  RX on the board for UART is shorted to ground by resistor R176
  therefore it must be removed to use the console
  but it is not necessary to remove to view boot log

  optionally, R175 can be replaced with a solder bridge short

  the resistors R175 and R176 are next to the UART RX pin

**Installation:**

  Method 1: Firmware upgrade page

    OEM webpage at 192.168.0.1

    Navigate to Settings (gear icon) --> Tools --> Firmware
    select the factory.bin image
    confirm and wait 3 minutes

  Method 2: TFTP recovery

    Follow TFTP instructions using initramfs.bin
    use sysupgrade.bin to flash using openwrt web interface

**Return to OEM:**

  MTD partitions should be backed up before flashing
  using TFTP to boot openwrt without overwriting flash

  Alternatively, it is possible to edit OEM firmware images
  to flash MTD partitions in openwrt to restore OEM firmware
  by removing the OEM header and writing the rest to "firmware"

**TFTP recovery:**

  Requires serial console, reset button does nothing at boot

  rename initramfs.bin to 'uImageESR1200'

  Only one Vendor MAC address in flash

  eth0 *:d4 MAC art 0x0
  eth1 *:d5 --- art 0x0 +1

  therefore it must be removed to use the console
  but it is not necessary to remove to view boot log

  optionally, R175 can be replaced with a solder bridge short

  the resistors R175 and R176 are next to the UART RX pin

**Installation:**

  2 ways to flash factory.bin from OEM:

  Method 1: Firmware upgrade page:

    OEM webpage at 192.168.1.1
    username and password "admin"
    Navigate to "Firmware Upgrade" page from left pane
    Click Browse and select the factory.bin image
    Upload and verify checksum
    Click Continue to confirm and wait 3 minutes

  Method 2: Serial to load Failsafe webpage:

    After connecting to serial console and rebooting...
    Interrupt uboot with any key pressed rapidly
    execute `run failsafe_boot` OR `bootm 0x9fd70000`
    wait a minute
    connect to ethernet and navigate to
    "192.168.1.1/index.htm"
    Select the factory.bin image and upload
    wait about 3 minutes

**Return to OEM:**

  If you have a serial cable, see Serial Failsafe instructions
  otherwise, uboot-env can be used to make uboot load the failsafe image

  ssh into openwrt and run
  `fw_setenv rootfs_checksum 0`
  reboot, wait 3 minutes
  connect to ethernet and navigate to 192.168.1.1/index.htm
  select OEM firmware image from Engenius and click upgrade

**TFTP recovery:**

  Requires serial console, reset button does nothing

  rename initramfs.bin to '0101A8C0.img'
  make available on TFTP server at 192.168.1.101
  power board, interrupt boot
  execute tftpboot and bootm 0x81000000

**Format of OEM firmware image:**

  The OEM software of EWS660AP is a heavily modified version
  of Openwrt Kamikaze. One of the many modifications
  is to the sysupgrade program. Image verification is performed
  simply by the successful ungzip and untar of the supplied file
  and name check and header verification of the resulting contents.
  To form a factory.bin that is accepted by OEM Openwrt build,
  the kernel and rootfs must have specific names...

    openwrt-ar71xx-generic-ews660ap-uImage-lzma.bin
    openwrt-ar71xx-generic-ews660ap-root.squashfs

  and begin with the respective headers (uImage, squashfs).
  Then the files must be tarballed and gzipped.
  The resulting binary is actually a tar.gz file in disguise.
  This can be verified by using binwalk on the OEM firmware images,
  ungzipping then untaring.

  Newer EnGenius software requires more checks but their script
  includes a way to skip them, otherwise the tar must include
  a text file with the version and md5sums in a deprecated format.

  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 PLL-data cells:

  The default PLL 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

 - 16 MB FLASH		MX25L12845EMI-10G
 - 2x 32 MB RAM		W9725G6JB-25
 - UART at J11		populated, 9600 baud
 - 6 LEDs, 1 button	power, ethernet, wlan, reset

  Note:	ethernet LEDs are not enabled
	because a new netifd hotplug is required
	in order to operate like OEM.
	Board has 1 amber and 1 green
	for each of the 3 case viewports.

**MAC addresses:**

1 MAC Address in flash at end of uboot
ASCII encoded, no delimiters
Labeled as "MAC Address" on case
OEM firmware sets offsets 1 and 8 for wlan

  eth0 *:1e	uboot 0x3ff80
  phy0 *:1f	uboot 0x3ff80 +1
  phy1 *:26	uboot 0x3ff80 +8

**Serial Access:**

Pinout: (arrow) VCC GND RX TX

Pins are populated with a header and traces not blocked.
Bootloader is set to 9600 baud, 8 data, 1 stop.

**Console Access:**

Bootloader:

Interrupt boot with Ctrl+C
Press "k" and enter password "1"
OR
Hold reset button for 5 sec during power on
Interrupt the TFTP transfer with Ctrl+C

to print commands available, enter "help"

OEM:

default username is "admin", password blank
telnet is available at default address 192.168.1.2
serial is available with baud 9600

to print commands available, enter "help"
or tab-tab (busybox list of commands)

**Installation:**

Use factory.bin with OEM upgrade procedures
OR
Use initramfs.bin with uboot TFTP commands.
Then perform a sysupgrade with sysupgrade.bin

**TFTP Recovery:**

Using serial console, load initramfs.bin using TFTP
to boot openwrt without touching the flash.
TFTP is not reliable due to bugged bootloader,
set MTU to 600 and try many times.
If your TFTP server supports setting block size,
higher block size is better.
Splitting the file into 1 MB parts may be necessary

example:

$ tftpboot 0x80100000 image1.bin
$ tftpboot 0x80200000 image2.bin
$ tftpboot 0x80300000 image3.bin

**Return to OEM:**

The best way to return to OEM firmware
is to have a copy of the MTD partitions
before flashing Openwrt.

Backup copies should be made of partitions
"fwconcat0", "loader", and "fwconcat1"
which together is the same flash range
as OEM's "rootfs" and "uimage"
by loading an initramfs.bin
and using LuCI to download the mtdblocks.

It is also possible to extract from the
OEM firmware upgrade image by splitting it up
in parts of lengths that correspond
to the partitions in openwrt
and write them to flash,
after gzip decompression.

After writing to the firmware partitions,
erase the "reserved" partition and reboot.

**OEM firmware image format:**

Images from Fortinet for this device
ending with the suffix .out
are actually a .gz file

The gzip metadata stores the original filename
before compression, which is a special string
used to verify the image during OEM upgrade.

After gzip decompression, the resulting file
is an exact copy of the MTD partitions
"rootfs" and "uimage" combined in the same order and size
that they appear in /proc/mtd and as they are on flash.

OEM upgrade is performed by a customized busybox
with the command "upgrade".
Another binary, "restore"
is a wrapper for busybox's "tftp" and "upgrade".

766de7013f ath79: allow skipping hash for Senao sysupgrade
Some vendors of Senao boards have a similar flash layout
situation that causes the need to split the firmware partition
and use the lzma-loader, but do not store
checksums of the partitions or otherwise
do not even have a uboot environment partition.

This adds simple shell logic to skip that part.

Also, simplify some lines and variable usage.

d9566d059c ath79: add support for KuWFi C910
KuWFi C910 is an 802.11n (300N) indoor router with LTE support.

I can't find anywhere the OEM firmware. So if you want to restore the
original firmware you must do a dump before the OpenWrt flash.

According to the U-Boot, the board name is Iyunlink MINI_V2.

Hardware
--------
SoC:   Qualcomm QCA9533 650/400/200/25/25 MHz (CPU/RAM/AHB/SPI/REF)
RAM:   128 MB DDR2 16-bit CL3-4-4-10 (Nanya NT5TU64M16HG-AC)
FLASH: 16 MB Winbond W25Q128
ETH:
  - 2x 100M LAN (QCA9533 internal AR8229 switch, eth0)
  - 1x 100M WAN (QCA9533 internal PHY, eth1)
WIFI:
  - 2.4GHz: 1x QCA9533 2T2R (b/g/n)
  - 2 external non detachable antennas (near the power barrel side)
LTE:
  - Quectel EC200T-EU (or -CN or -AU depending on markets)
  - 2 external non detachable antennas (near the sim slot side)
BTN:
  - 1x Reset button
LEDS:
  - 5x White leds (Power, Wifi, Wan, Lan1, Lan2)
  - 1x RGB led (Internet)
UART: 115200-8-N-1 (Starting from lan ports in order: GND, RX, TX, VCC)

Everything works correctly.

MAC Addresses
-------------
LAN XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:48 (art@0x1002)
WAN XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:49 (art@0x1002 + 1)
WIFI XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:48

LABEL XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:48

Installation
------------
Turn the router on while pressing the reset button for 4 seconds.
You can simply count the flashes of the first lan led. (See notes)
If done correctly you should see the first lan led glowing slowly and
you should be able to enter the U-Boot web interface.

Click on the second tab ("固件") and select the -factory.bin firmware
then click "Update firmware".

A screen "Update in progress" should appear.

After few minutes the flash should be completed.

This procedure can be used also to recover the router in case of soft
brick.

Backup the original firmware
----------------------------
The following steps are intended for a linux pc. However using the
right software this guide should also work for Windows and MacOS.

1) Install a tftp server on your pc. For example tftpd-hpa.

2) Create two empty files in your tftp folder called:
	kuwfi_c910_all_nor.bin
	kuwfi_c910_firmware_only.bin

3) Give global write permissions to these files:
	chmod 666 kuwfi_c910_all_nor.bin
	chmod 666 kuwfi_c910_firmware_only.bin

4) Start a netcat session on your pc with this command:
	nc -u -p 6666 192.168.1.1 6666

5) Set the static address on your pc: 192.168.1.2. Connect the router
	to your pc.

6) Turn the router on while pressing the reset button for 8-9 seconds.
	You can simply count the flashes of the first lan led. If you
	press the reset button for too many seconds it will continue
	the normal boot, so you have to restart the router. (See notes)

7) If done correctly you should see the U-Boot network console and you
	should see the following lines on the netcat session:
Version and build date:
  U-Boot 1.1.4-55f1bca8-dirty, 2020-05-07

Modification by:
  Piotr Dymacz <piotr@dymacz.pl>
  https://github.com/pepe2k/u-boot_mod

u-boot>

8) Start the transfer of the whole NOR:
	tftpput 0x9f000000 0x1000000 kuwfi_c910_all_nor.bin

9) The router should start the transfer and it should end with a
	message like this (pay attention to the bytes transferred):
TFTP transfer complete!

Bytes transferred: 16777216 (0x1000000)

10) Repeat the same transfer for the firmware:
	tftpput 0x9f050000 0xfa0000 kuwfi_c910_firmware_only.bin

11) The router should start the transfer and it should end with a
	message like this (pay attention to the bytes transferred):
TFTP transfer complete!

Bytes transferred: 16384000 (0xfa0000)

12) Now you have the backup for the whole nor and for the firmware
	partition. If you want to restore the OEM firmware from OpenWrt
	you have to flash the kuwfi_c910_firmware_only.bin from the
	U-Boot web interface.

	WARNING: Don't use the kuwfi_c910_all_nor.bin file. This file
	is only useful if you manage to	hard brick the router or you
	damage the art partition (ask on the forum)

Notes
-----
This router (or at least my unit) has the pepe2k's U-Boot. It's a
modded U-Boot version with a lot of cool features. You can read more
here: https://github.com/pepe2k/u-boot_mod

With this version of U-Boot, pushing the reset button while turning on
the router starts different tools:
 - 3-5 seconds: U-Boot web interface that can be used to replace the
 	firmware, the art or the U-Boot itself
 - 5-7 seconds: U-Boot uart console
 - 7-10 seconds: U-Boot network console
 - 11+ seconds: Normal boot

The LTE modem can be used in cdc_ether (ECM) or RNDIS mode.
The default mode is ECM and in this commit only the ECM software is
included. In order to set RNDIS mode you must use this AT command:
	AT+QCFG="usbnet",3
In order to use again the ECM mode you must use this AT command:
	AT+QCFG="usbnet",1

Look for "Quectel_EC200T_Linux_USB_Driver_User_Guide_V1.0.pdf" for
other AT commands

6de9287abd ath79: add support for Senao Engenius EAP1750H
FCC ID: A8J-EAP1750H

Engenius EAP1750H is an indoor wireless access point with
1 Gb ethernet port, dual-band wireless,
internal antenna plates, and 802.3at PoE+

**Specification:**

  - QCA9558 SOC
  - QCA9880 WLAN	PCI card, 5 GHz, 3x3, 26dBm
  - AR8035-A PHY	RGMII GbE with PoE+ IN
  - 40 MHz clock
  - 16 MB FLASH		MX25L12845EMI-10G
  - 2x 64 MB RAM	NT5TU32M16FG
  - UART at J10		populated
  - 4 internal antenna plates (5 dbi, omni-directional)
  - 5 LEDs, 1 button (power, eth0, 2G, 5G, WPS) (reset)

**MAC addresses:**

  MAC addresses are labeled as ETH, 2.4G, and 5GHz
  Only one Vendor MAC address in flash

  eth0 ETH  *:fb art 0x0
  phy1 2.4G *:fc ---
  phy0 5GHz *:fd ---

**Serial Access:**

  the RX line on the board for UART is shorted to ground by resistor R176
  therefore it must be removed to use the console
  but it is not necessary to remove to view boot log

  optionally, R175 can be replaced with a solder bridge short

  the resistors R175 and R176 are next to the UART RX pin at J10

**Installation:**

  2 ways to flash factory.bin from OEM:

  Method 1: Firmware upgrade page:

    OEM webpage at 192.168.1.1
    username and password "admin"
    Navigate to "Firmware Upgrade" page from left pane
    Click Browse and select the factory.bin image
    Upload and verify checksum
    Click Continue to confirm and wait 3 minutes

  Method 2: Serial to load Failsafe webpage:

    After connecting to serial console and rebooting...
    Interrupt uboot with any key pressed rapidly
    execute `run failsafe_boot` OR `bootm 0x9fd70000`
    wait a minute
    connect to ethernet and navigate to
    "192.168.1.1/index.htm"
    Select the factory.bin image and upload
    wait about 3 minutes

**Return to OEM:**

  If you have a serial cable, see Serial Failsafe instructions
  otherwise, uboot-env can be used to make uboot load the failsafe image

  ssh into openwrt and run
  `fw_setenv rootfs_checksum 0`
  reboot, wait 3 minutes
  connect to ethernet and navigate to 192.168.1.1/index.htm
  select OEM firmware image from Engenius and click upgrade

**TFTP recovery:**

  Requires serial console, reset button does nothing

  rename initramfs to 'vmlinux-art-ramdisk'
  make available on TFTP server at 192.168.1.101
  power board, interrupt boot
  execute tftpboot and bootm 0x81000000

  NOTE: TFTP is not reliable due to bugged bootloader
  set MTU to 600 and try many times
  if your TFTP server supports setting block size
  higher block size is better.

**Format of OEM firmware image:**

  The OEM software of EAP1750H is a heavily modified version
  of Openwrt Kamikaze. One of the many modifications
  is to the sysupgrade program. Image verification is performed
  simply by the successful ungzip and untar of the supplied file
  and name check and header verification of the resulting contents.
  To form a factory.bin that is accepted by OEM Openwrt build,
  the kernel and rootfs must have specific names...

    openwrt-ar71xx-generic-eap1750h-uImage-lzma.bin
    openwrt-ar71xx-generic-eap1750h-root.squashfs

  and begin with the respective headers (uImage, squashfs).
  Then the files must be tarballed and gzipped.
  The resulting binary is actually a tar.gz file in disguise.
  This can be verified by using binwalk on the OEM firmware images,
  ungzipping then untaring.

  Newer EnGenius software requires more checks but their script
  includes a way to skip them, otherwise the tar must include
  a text file with the version and md5sums in a deprecated format.

  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 PLL-data cells:

  The default PLL 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

----------

Pin 1 is near the "H1" marking.
1 - RX
2 - n/c
3 - VCC (3.3V)
4 - GND
5 - TX

Installation:
There are two methods of installation:
- Using serial console [1] - requires some disassembly, 3.3V USB-Serial
  adapter, TFTP server,  and removing a single T10 screw,
  but with much less manual steps, and is generally recommended, being
  safer.
- Using stock firmware root shell exploit, SSH and TFTP [2]. Does not
  work on some rare versions of stock firmware. A more involved, and
  requires installing `mkenvimage` from u-boot-tools package if you
  choose to rebuild your own environment, but can be used without
  disassembly or removal from installation point, if you have the
  credentials.
  If for some reason, size of your sysupgrade image exceeds 13312kB,
  proceed with method [1]. For official images this is not likely to
  happen ever.

[1] Using serial console:
0. Connect serial console to H1 header. Ensure the serial converter
   does not back-power the board, otherwise it will fail to boot.

1. Power-on the board. Then quickly connect serial converter to PC and
   hit Ctrl+C in the terminal to break boot sequence. If you're lucky,
   you'll enter U-boot shell. Then skip to point 3.
   Connection parameters are 115200-8-N-1.

2. Allow the board to boot.  Press the reset button, so the board
   reboots into U-boot again and go back to point 1.

3. Set the "bootcmd" variable to disable the dual-boot feature of the
   system and ensure that uImage is loaded. This is critical step, and
   needs to be done only on initial installation.

   > setenv bootcmd "bootm 0x9f040000"
   > saveenv

4. Boot the OpenWrt initramfs using TFTP. Replace IP addresses as needed:

   > setenv serverip 192.168.1.2
   > setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
   > tftpboot 0x81000000 openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7025-initramfs-kernel.bin
   > bootm 0x81000000

5. Optional, but highly recommended: back up contents of "firmware" partition:

   $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd1 > ruckus_zf7025_fw1_backup.bin

6. Copy over sysupgrade image, and perform actual installation. OpenWrt
   shall boot from flash afterwards:

   $ ssh root@192.168.1.1
   # sysupgrade -n openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7025-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

[2] Using stock root shell:
0. Reset the device to factory defaullts. Power-on the device and after
   it boots, hold the reset button near Ethernet connectors for 5
   seconds.

1. Connect the device to the network. It will acquire address over DHCP,
   so either find its address using list of DHCP leases by looking for
   label MAC address, or try finding it by scanning for SSH port:

   $ nmap 10.42.0.0/24 -p22

   From now on, we assume your computer has address 10.42.0.1 and the device
   has address 10.42.0.254.

2. Set up a TFTP server on your computer. We assume that TFTP server
   root is at /srv/tftp.

3. Obtain root shell. Connect to the device over SSH. The SSHD ond the
   frmware is pretty ancient and requires enabling HMAC-MD5.

   $ ssh 10.42.0.254 \
   -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null \
   -o StrictHostKeyCheking=no \
   -o MACs=hmac-md5

   Login. User is "super", password is "sp-admin".
   Now execute a hidden command:

   Ruckus

   It is case-sensitive. Copy and paste the following string,
   including quotes. There will be no output on the console for that.

   ";/bin/sh;"

   Hit "enter". The AP will respond with:

   grrrr
   OK

   Now execute another hidden command:

   !v54!

   At "What's your chow?" prompt just hit "enter".
   Congratulations, you should now be dropped to Busybox shell with root
   permissions.

4. Optional, but highly recommended: backup the flash contents before
   installation. At your PC ensure the device can write the firmware
   over TFTP:

   $ sudo touch /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7025_firmware{1,2}.bin
   $ sudo chmod 666 /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7025_firmware{1,2}.bin

   Locate partitions for primary and secondary firmware image.
   NEVER blindly copy over MTD nodes, because MTD indices change
   depending on the currently active firmware, and all partitions are
   writable!

   # grep rcks_wlan /proc/mtd

   Copy over both images using TFTP, this will be useful in case you'd
   like to return to stock FW in future. Make sure to backup both, as
   OpenWrt uses bot firmwre partitions for storage!

   # tftp -l /dev/<rcks_wlan.main_mtd> -r ruckus_zf7025_firmware1.bin -p 10.42.0.1
   # tftp -l /dev/<rcks_wlan.bkup_mtd> -r ruckus_zf7025_firmware2.bin -p 10.42.0.1

   When the command finishes, copy over the dump to a safe place for
   storage.

   $ cp /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7025_firmware{1,2}.bin ~/

5. Ensure the system is running from the BACKUP image, i.e. from
   rcks_wlan.bkup partition or "image 2". Otherwise the installation
   WILL fail, and you will need to access mtd0 device to write image
   which risks overwriting the bootloader, and so is not covered here
   and not supported.

   Switching to backup firmware can be achieved by executing a few
   consecutive reboots of the device, or by updating the stock firmware. The
   system will boot from the image it was not running from previously.
   Stock firmware available to update was conveniently dumped in point 4 :-)

6. Prepare U-boot environment image.
   Install u-boot-tools package. Alternatively, if you build your own
   images, OpenWrt provides mkenvimage in host staging directory as well.
   It is recommended to extract environment from the device, and modify
   it, rather then relying on defaults:

   $ sudo touch /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin
   $ sudo chmod 666 /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin

   On the device, find the MTD partition on which environment resides.
   Beware, it may change depending on currently active firmware image!

   # grep u-boot-env /proc/mtd

   Now, copy over the partition

   # tftp -l /dev/mtd<N> -r u-boot-env.bin -p 10.42.0.1

   Store the stock environment in a safe place:

   $ cp /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin ~/

   Extract the values from the dump:

   $ strings u-boot-env.bin | tee u-boot-env.txt

   Now clean up the debris at the end of output, you should end up with
   each variable defined once. After that, set the bootcmd variable like
   this:

   bootcmd=bootm 0x9f040000

   You should end up with something like this:

bootcmd=bootm 0x9f040000
bootargs=console=ttyS0,115200 rootfstype=squashfs init=/sbin/init
baudrate=115200
ethaddr=0x00:0xaa:0xbb:0xcc:0xdd:0xee
mtdparts=mtdparts=ar7100-nor0:256k(u-boot),7168k(rcks_wlan.main),7168k(rcks_wlan.bkup),1280k(datafs),256k(u-boot-env)
mtdids=nor0=ar7100-nor0
bootdelay=2
filesize=52e000
fileaddr=81000000
ethact=eth0
stdin=serial
stdout=serial
stderr=serial
partition=nor0,0
mtddevnum=0
mtddevname=u-boot
ipaddr=192.168.0.1
serverip=192.168.0.2
stderr=serial
ethact=eth0

   These are the defaults, you can use most likely just this as input to
   mkenvimage.

   Now, create environment image and copy it over to TFTP root:

   $ mkenvimage -s 0x40000 -b -o u-boot-env.bin u-boot-env.txt
   $ sudo cp u-boot-env.bin /srv/tftp

   This is the same image, gzipped and base64-encoded:

7. Perform actual installation. Copy over OpenWrt sysupgrade image to
   TFTP root:

   $ sudo cp openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7025-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin /srv/tftp

   Now load both to the device over TFTP:

   # tftp -l /tmp/u-boot-env.bin -r u-boot-env.bin -g 10.42.0.1
   # tftp -l /tmp/openwrt.bin -r openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7025-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin -g 10.42.0.1

   Verify checksums of both images to ensure the transfer over TFTP
   was completed:

   # sha256sum /tmp/u-boot-env.bin /tmp/openwrt.bin

   And compare it against source images:

   $ sha256sum /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin /srv/tftp/openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7025-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

   Locate MTD partition of the primary image:

   # grep rcks_wlan.main /proc/mtd

   Now, write the images in place. Write U-boot environment last, so
   unit still can boot from backup image, should power failure occur during
   this. Replace MTD placeholders with real MTD nodes:

   # flashcp /tmp/openwrt.bin /dev/<rcks_wlan.main_mtd>
   # flashcp /tmp/u-boot-env.bin /dev/<u-boot-env_mtd>

   Finally, reboot the device. The device should directly boot into
   OpenWrt. Look for the characteristic power LED blinking pattern.

   # reboot -f

   After unit boots, it should be available at the usual 192.168.1.1/24.

Return to factory firmware:

1. Boot into OpenWrt initramfs as for initial installation. To do that
   without disassembly, you can write an initramfs image to the device
   using 'sysupgrade -F' first.
2. Unset the "bootcmd" variable:
   fw_setenv bootcmd ""
3. Concatenate the firmware backups, if you took them during installation using method 2:

   $ cat ruckus_zf7025_fw1_backup.bin ruckus_zf7025_fw2_backup.bin > ruckus_zf7025_backup.bin

3. Write factory images downloaded from manufacturer website into
   fwconcat0 and fwconcat1 MTD partitions, or restore backup you took
   before installation:

   # mtd write ruckus_zf7025_backup.bin /dev/mtd1

4. Reboot the system, it should load into factory firmware again.

Quirks and known issues:
- Flash layout is changed from the factory, to use both firmware image
  partitions for storage using mtd-concat, and uImage format is used to
  actually boot the system, which rules out the dual-boot capability.
- The 2.4 GHz radio has its own EEPROM on board, not connected to CPU.
- The stock firmware has dual-boot capability, which is not supported in
  OpenWrt by choice.
  It is controlled by data in the top 64kB of RAM which is unmapped,
  to avoid   the interference in the boot process and accidental
  switch to the inactive image, although boot script presence in
  form of "bootcmd" variable should prevent this entirely.
- On some versions of stock firmware, it is possible to obtain root shell,
  however not much is available in terms of debugging facitilies.
  1. Login to the rkscli
  2. Execute hidden command "Ruckus"
  3. Copy and paste ";/bin/sh;" including quotes. This is required only
     once, the payload will be stored in writable filesystem.
  4. Execute hidden command "!v54!". Press Enter leaving empty reply for
     "What's your chow?" prompt.
  5. Busybox shell shall open.

79107116d1 ath79: calibrate TL-WDR4900 v2 with nvmem-cells
Driver for both soc (2.4GHz Wifi) and pci (5 GHz) now pull the calibration
data from the nvmem subsystem.

This allows us to move the userspace caldata extraction for the pci-e ath9k
supported wifi into the device-tree definition of the device.

wmac's nodes are also changed over to use nvmem-cells over OpenWrt's
custom mtd-cal-data property.
