  the switch on the backside.
- Battery: 3Ah 1-cell Li-Ion replaceable battery, with charging and
  monitoring handled by modem.
- Label MAC device: eth0

Console connection: connector X2 is the console port, with the following
pinout, starting from pin 1, which is the topmost pin when the board is
upright:
- VCC (3.3V). Do not use unless you need to source power for the
  converer from it.
- TX
- RX
- GND
Default port configuration in U-boot as well as in stock firmware is
115200-8-N-1.

Installation:
Due to different flash layout from stock firmware, sysupgrade from
within stock firmware is impossible, despite it's based on QSDK which
itself is based on OpenWrt.

STEP 0: Stock firmware update:
As installing OpenWrt cuts you off from official firmware updates for
the modem part, it is recommended to update the stock firmware to latest
version before installation, to have built-in modem at the latest firmware
version.

STEP 1: gaining root shell:

Method 1:
This works if busybox has telnetd compiled in the binary.
If this does not work, try method 2.

Using well-known exploit to start telnetd on your router - works
only if Busybox on stock firmware has telnetd included:
- Open stock firmware web interface
- Navigate to "URL filtering" section by going to "Advanced settings",
  then "Firewall" and finally "URL filter".
- Add an entry ending with "&&telnetd&&", for example
  "http://hostname/&&telnetd&&".
- telnetd will immediately listen on port 4719.
- After connecting to telnetd use "admin/admin" as credentials.

Method 2:
This works if busybox does not have telnetd compiled in. Notably, this
is the case in DNA.fi firmware.
If this does not work, try method 3.

- Set IP of your computer to 192.168.1.22.
- Have a TFTP server running at that address
- Download MIPS build of busybox including telnetd, for example from:
  https://busybox.net/downloads/binaries/1.21.1/busybox-mips
  and put it in it's root directory. Rename it as "telnetd".
- As previously, login to router's web UI and navigate to "URL
  filtering"
- Using "Inspect" feature, extend "maxlength" property of the input
  field named "addURLFilter", so it looks like this:
  <input type="text" name="addURLFilter" id="addURLFilter" maxlength="332"
    class="required form-control">
- Stay on the page - do not navigate anywhere
- Enter "http://aa&zte_debug.sh 192.168.1.22 telnetd" as a filter.
- Save the settings. This will download the telnetd binary over tftp and
  execute it. You should be able to log in at port 23, using
  "admin/admin" as credentials.

Method 3:
If the above doesn't work, use the serial console - it exposes root shell
directly without need for login. Some stock firmwares, notably one from
finnish DNA operator lack telnetd in their builds.

STEP 2: Backing up original software:
As the stock firmware may be customized by the carrier and is not
officially available in the Internet, IT IS IMPERATIVE to back up the
stock firmware, if you ever plan to returning to stock firmware.

Method 1: after booting OpenWrt initramfs image via TFTP:
PLEASE NOTE: YOU CANNOT DO THIS IF USING INTERMEDIATE FIRMWARE FOR INSTALLATION.
- Dump stock firmware located on stock kernel and ubi partitions:

  ssh root@192.168.1.1: cat /dev/mtd4 > mtd4_kernel.bin
  ssh root@192.168.1.1: cat /dev/mtd8 > mtd8_ubi.bin

And keep them in a safe place, should a restore be needed in future.

Method 2: using stock firmware:
- Connect an external USB drive formatted with FAT or ext4 to the USB
  port.
- The drive will be auto-mounted to /var/usb_disk
- Check the flash layout of the device:

  cat /proc/mtd

  It should show the following:
  mtd0: 00080000 00010000 "uboot"
  mtd1: 00020000 00010000 "uboot-env"
  mtd2: 00140000 00020000 "fota-flag"
  mtd3: 00140000 00020000 "caldata"
  mtd4: 00140000 00020000 "mac"
  mtd5: 00600000 00020000 "cfg-param"
  mtd6: 00140000 00020000 "oops"
  mtd7: 00800000 00020000 "web"
  mtd8: 00300000 00020000 "kernel"
  mtd9: 01f00000 00020000 "rootfs"
  mtd10: 01900000 00020000 "data"
  mtd11: 03200000 00020000 "fota"

  Differences might indicate that this is NOT a vanilla MF286 device but
  one of its later derivatives.
- Copy over all MTD partitions, for example by executing the following:

  for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11; do cat /dev/mtd$i > \
  /var/usb_disk/mtd$i; done

- If the count of MTD partitions is different, this might indicate that
  this is not a standard MF286 device, but one of its later derivatives.
- (optionally) rename the files according to MTD partition names from
  /proc/mtd
- Unmount the filesystem:

  umount /var/usb_disk; sync

  and then remove the drive.
- Store the files in safe place if you ever plan to return to stock
  firmware. This is especially important, because stock firmware for
  this device is not available officially, and is usually customized by
  the mobile providers.

STEP 3: Booting initramfs image:

Method 1: using serial console (RECOMMENDED):
- Have TFTP server running, exposing the OpenWrt initramfs image, and
  set your computer's IP address as 192.168.1.22. This is the default
  expected by U-boot. You may wish to change that, and alter later
  commands accordingly.
- Connect the serial console if you haven't done so already,
- Interrupt boot sequence by pressing any key in U-boot when prompted
- Use the following commands to boot OpenWrt initramfs through TFTP:

  setenv serverip 192.168.1.22
  setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
  tftpboot 0x81000000 openwrt-ath79-nand-zte_mf286-initramfs-kernel.bin
  bootm 0x81000000

  (Replace server IP and router IP as needed). There is no  emergency
  TFTP boot sequence triggered by buttons, contrary to MF283+.
- When OpenWrt initramfs finishes booting, proceed to actual
  installation.

Method 2: using initramfs image as temporary boot kernel
This exploits the fact, that kernel and rootfs MTD devices are
consecutive on NAND flash, so from within stock image, an initramfs can
be written to this area and booted by U-boot on next reboot, because it
uses "nboot" command which isn't limited by kernel partition size.
- Download the initramfs-kernel.bin image
- Split the image into two parts on 3MB partition size boundary, which
  is the size of kernel partition. Pad the output of second file to
  eraseblock size:

  dd if=openwrt-ath79-nand-zte_mf286-initramfs-kernel.bin \
  bs=128k count=24 \
  of=openwrt-ath79-zte_mf286-intermediate-kernel.bin

  dd if=openwrt-ath79-nand-zte_mf286-initramfs-kernel.bin \
  bs=128k skip=24 conv=sync \
  of=openwrt-ath79-zte_mf286-intermediate-rootfs.bin

- Copy over /usr/bin/flash_eraseall and /usr/bin/nandwrite utilities to
  /tmp. This is CRITICAL for installation, as erasing rootfs will cut
  you off from those tools on flash!

- After backing up the previous MTD contents, write the images to the
  respective MTD devices:

  /tmp/flash_eraseall /dev/<kernel-mtd>

  /tmp/nandwrite /dev/<kernel-mtd> \
  /var/usb_disk/openwrt-ath79-zte_mf286-intermediate-kernel.bin

  /tmp/flash_eraseall /dev/<kernel-mtd>

  /tmp/nandwrite /dev/<rootfs-mtd> \
  /var/usb_disk/openwrt-ath79-zte_mf286-intermediate-rootfs.bin

- Ensure that no bad blocks were present on the devices while writing.
  If they were present, you may need to vary the split  between
  kernel and rootfs parts, so U-boot reads a valid uImage after skipping
  the bad blocks. If it fails, you will be left with method 3 (below).
- If write is OK, reboot the device, it will reboot to OpenWrt
  initramfs:

  reboot -f

- After rebooting, SSH into the device and use sysupgrade to perform
  proper installation.

Method 3: using built-in TFTP recovery (LAST RESORT):
- With that method, ensure you have complete backup of system's NAND
  flash first. It involves deliberately erasing the kernel.
- Download "-initramfs-kernel.bin" image for the device.
- Prepare the recovery image by prepending 8MB of zeroes to the image,
  and name it root_uImage:

  dd if=/dev/zero of=padding.bin bs=8M count=1

  cat padding.bin openwrt-ath79-nand-zte_mf286-initramfs-kernel.bin >
  root_uImage

- Set up a TFTP server at 192.0.0.1/8. Router will use random address
  from that range.
- Put the previously generated "root_uImage" into TFTP server root
  directory.
- Deliberately erase "kernel" partition" using stock firmware after
  taking backup. THIS IS POINT OF NO RETURN.
- Restart the device. U-boot will attempt flashing the recovery
  initramfs image, which will let you perform actual installation using
  sysupgrade. This might take a considerable time, sometimes the router
  doesn't establish Ethernet link properly right after booting. Be
  patient.
- After U-boot finishes flashing, the LEDs of switch ports will all
  light up. At this moment, perform power-on reset, and wait for OpenWrt
  initramfs to finish booting. Then proceed to actual installation.

STEP 4: Actual installation:
- scp the sysupgrade image to the device:

  scp openwrt-ath79-nand-zte_mf286-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin \
  root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/

- ssh into the device and execute sysupgrade:

  sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-ath79-nand-zte_mf286-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

- Wait for router to reboot to full OpenWrt.

STEP 5: WAN connection establishment
Since the router is equipped with LTE modem as its main WAN interface, it
might be useful to connect to the Internet right away after
installation. To do so, please put the following entries in
/etc/config/network, replacing the specific configuration entries with
one needed for your ISP:

config interface 'wan'
        option proto 'qmi'
        option device '/dev/cdc-wdm0'
        option auth '<auth>' # As required, usually 'none'
        option pincode '<pin>' # If required by SIM
        option apn '<apn>' # As required by ISP
        option pdptype '<pdp>' # Typically 'ipv4', or 'ipv4v6' or 'ipv6'

For example, the following works for most polish ISPs
config interface 'wan'
        option proto 'qmi'
        option device '/dev/cdc-wdm0'
        option auth 'none'
        option apn 'internet'
        option pdptype 'ipv4'

If you have build with LuCI, installing luci-proto-qmi helps with this
task.

Restoring the stock firmware:

Preparation:
If you took your backup using stock firmware, you will need to
reassemble the partitions into images to be restored onto the flash. The
layout might differ from ISP to ISP, this example is based on generic stock
firmware.
The only partitions you really care about are "web", "kernel", and
"rootfs". For easy padding and possibly restoring configuration, you can
concatenate most of them into images written into "ubi" meta-partition
in OpenWrt. To do so, execute something like:

cat mtd5_cfg-param.bin mtd6-oops.bin mtd7-web.bin mtd9-rootfs.bin > \
mtd8-ubi_restore.bin

You can skip the "fota" partition altogether,
it is used only for stock firmware update purposes and can be overwritten
safely anyway. The same is true for "data" partition which on my device
was found to be unused at all. Restoring mtd5_cfg-param.bin will restore
the stock firmware configuration you had before.

Method 1: Using initramfs:
- Boot to initramfs as in step 3:
- Completely detach ubi0 partition using ubidetach /dev/ubi0_0
- Look up the kernel and ubi partitions in /proc/mtd
- Copy over the stock kernel image using scp to /tmp
- Erase kernel and restore stock kernel:
  (scp mtd4_kernel.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/)
  mtd write <kernel_mtd> mtd4_kernel.bin
  rm mtd4_kernel.bin
- Copy over the stock partition backups one-by-one using scp to /tmp, and
  restore them individually. Otherwise you might run out of space in
  tmpfs:

  (scp mtd3_ubiconcat0.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/)

  mtd write <ubiconcat0_mtd> mtd3_ubiconcat0.bin
  rm mtd3_ubiconcat0.bin

  (scp mtd5_ubiconcat1.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/)

  mtd write <ubiconcat1_mtd> mtd5_ubiconcat1.bin
  rm mtd5_ubiconcat1.bin

- If the write was correct, force a device reboot with

  reboot -f

Method 2: Using live OpenWrt system (NOT RECOMMENDED):
- Prepare a USB flash drive contatining MTD backup files
- Ensure you have kmod-usb-storage and filesystem driver installed for
  your drive
- Mount your flash drive

  mkdir /tmp/usb

  mount /dev/sda1 /tmp/usb

- Remount your UBI volume at /overlay to R/O

  mount -o remount,ro /overlay

- Write back the kernel and ubi partitions from USB drive

  cd /tmp/usb
  mtd write mtd4_kernel.bin /dev/<kernel_mtd>

  mtd write mtd8_ubi.bin /dev/<kernel_ubi>

- If everything went well, force a device reboot with
  reboot -f

Last image may be truncated a bit due to lack of space in RAM, but this will happen over "fota"
MTD partition which may be safely erased after reboot anyway.

Method 3: using built-in TFTP recovery (LAST RESORT):
- Assemble a recovery rootfs image from backup of stock partitions by
  concatenating "web", "kernel", "rootfs" images dumped from the device,
  as "root_uImage"
- Use it in place of "root_uImage" recovery initramfs image as in the
  TFTP pre-installation method.

Quirks and known issues
- Kernel partition size is increased to 4MB compared to stock 3MB, to
  accomodate future kernel updates - at this moment OpenWrt 5.10 kernel
  image is at 2.5MB which is dangerously close to the limit. This has no
  effect on booting the system - but keep that in mind when reassembling
  an image to restore stock firmware.
- uqmi seems to be unable to change APN manually, so please use the one
  you used before in stock firmware first. If you need to change it,
  please use protocok '3g' to establish connection once, or use the
  following command to change APN (and optionally IP type) manually:
  echo -ne 'AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","<apn>' > /dev/ttyUSB0
- The only usable LED as a "system LED" is the green debug LED hidden
  inside the case. All other LEDs are controlled by modem, on which the
  router part has some influence only on Wi-Fi LED.
- Wi-Fi LED currently doesn't work while under OpenWrt, despite having
  correct GPIO mapping. All other LEDs are controlled by modem,
  including this one in stock firmware. GPIO19, mapped there only acts
  as a gate, while the actual signal source seems to be 5GHz Wi-Fi
  radio, however it seems it is not the LED exposed by ath10k as
  ath10k-phy0.
- GPIO5 used for modem reset is a suicide switch, causing a hardware
  reset of whole board, not only the modem. It is attached to
  gpio-restart driver, to restart the modem on reboot as well, to ensure
  QMI connectivity after reboot, which tends to fail otherwise.
- Modem, as in MF283+, exposes root shell over ADB - while not needed
  for OpenWrt operation at all - have fun lurking around.
- MAC address shift for 5GHz Wi-Fi used in stock firmware is
  0x320000000000, which is impossible to encode in the device tree, so I
  took the liberty of using MAC address increment of 1 for it, to ensure
  different BSSID for both Wi-Fi interfaces.

* 350/350/175 MHz (CPU/DDR/AHB)
* 32 MB of RAM
* 16 MB of SPI NOR flash
  - 2x 7 MB available; but one of the 7 MB regions is the recovery image
* 2x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
* 1T1R 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi
* 6x GPIO-LEDs (3x wifi, 2x ethernet, 1x power)
* 1x GPIO-button (reset)

    + used as WAN interface
  - eth1
    + builtin switch port 4
    + used as LAN interface
* 12-24V 1A DC
* external antenna

The device itself requires the mtdparts from the uboot arguments to
properly boot the flashed image and to support dual-boot (primary +
recovery image). Unfortunately, the name of the mtd device in mtdparts is
still using the legacy name "ar7240-nor0" which must be supplied using the
Linux-specfic DT parameter linux,mtd-name to overwrite the generic name
"spi0.0".

Flashing instructions:
======================

Various methods can be used to install the actual image on the flash.
Two easy ones are:

ap51-flash
----------

The tool ap51-flash (https://github.com/ap51-flash/ap51-flash) should be
used to transfer the image to the u-boot when the device boots up.

initramfs from TFTP
-------------------

The serial console must be used to access the u-boot shell during bootup.
It can then be used to first boot up the initramfs image from a TFTP server
(here with the IP 192.168.1.21):

   setenv serverip 192.168.1.21
   setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
   tftpboot 0c00000 <filename-of-initramfs-kernel>.bin && bootm $fileaddr

The actual sysupgrade image can then be transferred (on the LAN port) to the
device via

  scp <filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/

On the device, the sysupgrade must then be started using

  sysupgrade -n /tmp/<filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin

- Flash: 128 MB NAND
- Ethernet: 5x 1GiE MT7530
- WiFi: MT7603/MT7613
- USB: 1x USB 3.0

This is another MT7621 device, very similar to other Linksys EA7300
series devices.

Installation:

Upload the generated factory.bin image via the stock web firmware
updater.

Reverting to factory firmware:

Like other EA7300 devices, this device has an A/B router configuration
to prevent bricking.  Hard-resetting this device three (3) times will
put the device in failsafe (default) mode.  At this point, flash the
OEM image to itself and reboot.  This puts the router back into the 'B'
image and allows for a firmware upgrade.

Troubleshooting:

If the firmware will not boot, first restore the factory as described
above.  This will then allow the factory.bin update to be applied
properly.

3fda16078b qoriq: add support for WatchGuard Firebox M300
This device is based on NXP's QorIQ T2081QDS board, with a quad-core
dual-threaded 1.5 GHz ppc64 CPU and 4GB ECC RAM. The board has 5
ethernet interfaces, of which 3 are connected to the ethernet ports on
the front panel. The other 2 are internally connected to a Marvell
88E6171 switch; the other 5 ports of this switch are also connected to
the ethernet ports on the front panel.

Installation: write the sdcard image to an SD card. Stock U-Boot will
not boot, wait for it to fail then run these commands:

setenv OpenWrt_fdt image-watchguard-firebox-m300.dtb
setenv OpenWrt_kernel watchguard_firebox-m300-kernel.bin
setenv wgBootSysA 'setenv bootargs root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rw rootdelay=2 console=$consoledev,$baudrate fsl_dpaa_fman.fsl_fm_max_frm=1530; ext2load mmc 0:1 $fdtaddr $OpenWrt_fdt; ext2load mmc 0:1 $loadaddr $OpenWrt_kernel; bootm $loadaddr - $fdtaddr'
saveenv
reset

The default U-Boot boot entry will now boot OpenWrt from the SD card.

3c97fb4346 ramips: add support for Xiaomi MiWifi 3C
This commit adds support for Xiaomi MiWiFi 3C device.

Xiaomi MiWifi 3C has almost the same system architecture
as the Xiaomi Mi WiFi Nano, which is already officially
supported by OpenWrt.

The differences are:

 - Numbers of antennas (4 instead of 2). The antenna management
   is done via the µC. There is no configuration needed in the
   software code.
 - LAN port assignments are different. LAN1 and WAN are
   interchanged.

OpenWrt Wiki: https://openwrt.org/toh/xiaomi/mir3c

OpenWrt developers forum page:
https://forum.openwrt.org/t/support-for-xiaomi-mi-3c

Specifications:

 - CPU: MediaTek MT7628AN (575MHz)
 - Flash: 16MB
 - RAM: 64MB DDR2
 - 2.4 GHz: IEEE 802.11b/g/n with Integrated LNA and PA
 - Antennas: 4x external single band antennas
 - WAN: 1x 10/100M
 - LAN: 2x 10/100M
 - LED: 1x amber/blue/red. Programmable
 - Button: Reset

MAC addresses as verified by OEM firmware:

use address source
LAN *:92 factory 0x28
WAN *:92 factory 0x28
2g *:93 factory 0x4

OEM firmware uses VLAN's to create the network interface for WAN and LAN.

Bootloader info:
The stock bootloader uses a "Dual ROM Partition System".
OS1 is a deep copy of OS2.
The bootloader start OS2 by default.
To force start OS1 it is needed to set "flag_try_sys2_failed=1".

How to install:
1- Use OpenWRTInvasion to gain telnet, ssh and ftp access.
   https://github.com/acecilia/OpenWRTInvasion
   (IP: 192.168.31.1 - Username: root - Password: root)
2- Connect to router using telnet or ssh.
3- Backup all partitions. Use command  "dd if=/dev/mtd0 of=/tmp/mtd0".
   Copy /tmp/mtd0 to computer using ftp.
4- Copy openwrt-ramips-mt76x8-xiaomi_miwifi-3c-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
   to /tmp in router using ftp.
5- Enable UART access and change start image for OS1.
```
nvram set uart_en=1
nvram set flag_last_success=1
nvram set boot_wait=on
nvram set flag_try_sys2_failed=1
nvram commit
```
6- Installing Openwrt on OS1 and free OS2.
```
mtd erase OS1
mtd erase OS2
mtd -r write /tmp/openwrt-ramips-mt76x8-xiaomi_miwifi-3c-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin OS1
```

Limitations: For the first install the image size needs to be less
than 7733248 bits.

Note that 1G SFP and 1G WAN cannot be used at the same time as they are in
parallel connected to the same PHY.

Installation:

Copy dtb from build_dir to bin/ and run tftpserver there:
$ cp ./build_dir/target-aarch64_cortex-a72_musl/linux-mvebu_cortexa72/image-armada-7040-mochabin.dtb bin/targets/mvebu/cortexa72/
$ in.tftpd -L -s bin/targets/mvebu/cortexa72/

Connect to the device UART via microUSB port and power on the device.

Power on the device and hit any key to stop the autoboot.

Set serverip (host IP) and ipaddr (any free IP address on the same subnet), e.g:
$ setenv serverip 192.168.1.10 # Host
$ setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.15 # Device

Set the ethernet device (Example for the 1G WAN):
$ setenv ethact mvpp2-2

Ping server to confirm network is working:
$ ping $serverip
Using mvpp2-2 device
host 192.168.1.15 is alive

Tftpboot the firmware:
$ tftpboot $kernel_addr_r openwrt-mvebu-cortexa72-globalscale_mochabin-initramfs-kernel.bin
$ tftpboot $fdt_addr_r image-armada-7040-mochabin.dtb

Boot the image:
$ booti $kernel_addr_r - $fdt_addr_r

Once the initramfs is booted, transfer openwrt-mvebu-cortexa72-globalscale_mochabin-squashfs-sdcard.img.gz
to /tmp dir on the device.

Gunzip and dd the image:
$ gunzip /tmp/openwrt-mvebu-cortexa72-globalscale_mochabin-squashfs-sdcard.img.gz
$ dd if=/tmp/openwrt-mvebu-cortexa72-globalscale_mochabin-squashfs-sdcard.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 && sync

Reboot the device.

Hit any key to stop the autoboot.

Reset U-boot env and set the bootcmd:
$ env default -a
$ setenv bootcmd 'load mmc 0 ${loadaddr} boot.scr && source ${loadaddr}'

Optionally I would advise to edit the console env variable to remove earlycon as that
causes the kernel to never use the driver for the serial console.
Earlycon should be used only for debugging before the kernel can configure the console
and will otherwise cause various issues with the console.

$ setenv console 'console=ttyS0,115200'

Save and reset
$ saveenv
$ reset

OpenWrt should boot from eMMC now.

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

OEM upgrade method:

(Possible on master once https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/openwrt/patch/20210624210408.19248-1-bjorn@mork.no/ is merged)

* Log in to OEM management web interface
* Navigate to Maintenance > Firmware > Management
* If "Active Image" has the first option selected, OpenWrt will need to be
  flashed to the "Active" partition. If the second option is selected,
  OpenWrt will need to be flashed to the "Backup" partition.
* Navigate to Maintenance > Firmware > Upload
* Upload the openwrt-realtek-generic-zyxel_gs1900-24hp-v2-initramfs-kernel.bin
  file by your preferred method to the previously determined partition.
  When prompted, select to boot from the newly flashed image, and reboot the switch.
* Once OpenWrt has booted, scp the sysupgrade image to /tmp and flash it:
   > sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-realtek-generic-zyxel_gs1900-24hp-v2-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
   it may be necessary to restart the network (/etc/init.d/network restart) on
   the running initramfs image.

U-Boot TFTP method:

* Configure your client with a static 192.168.1.x IP (e.g. 192.168.1.10).
* Set up a TFTP server on your client and make it serve the initramfs image.
* Connect serial, power up the switch, interrupt U-boot by hitting the
  space bar, and enable the network:
   > rtk network on
* Since the GS1900-24HPv2 is a dual-partition device, you want to keep the OEM
  firmware on the backup partition for the time being. OpenWrt can only boot
  from the first partition anyway (hardcoded in the DTS). To make sure we are
  manipulating the first partition, issue the following commands:
  > setsys bootpartition 0
  > savesys
* Download the image onto the device and boot from it:
   > tftpboot 0x84f00000 192.168.1.10:openwrt-realtek-generic-zyxel_gs1900-24hp-v2-initramfs-kernel.bin
   > bootm
* Once OpenWrt has booted, scp the sysupgrade image to /tmp and flash it:
   > sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-realtek-generic-zyxel_gs1900-24hp-v2-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
   it may be necessary to restart the network (/etc/init.d/network restart) on
   the running initramfs image.

de0c380a5f ramips: add support for Sitecom WLR-4100 v1 002
Sitecom WLR-4100 v1 002 (marked as X4 N300) is a wireless router
Specification:
SoC: MT7620A
RAM: 64 MB DDR2
Flash: MX25L6405D SPI NOR 8 MB
WIFI: 2.4 GHz integrated
Ethernet: 5x 10/100/1000 Mbps QCA8337
USB: 1x 2.0
LEDS: 2x GPIO controlled, 5x switch
Buttons: 1x GPIO controlled
UART: row of 4 unpopulated holes near USB port, starting count from
      white triangle on PCB:

    VCC 3.3V
    GND
    TX
    RX

    baud: 115200, parity: none, flow control: none

Installation

    Connect to one of LAN (yellow) ethernet ports,
    Open router configuration interface,
    Go to Toolbox > Firmware,
    Browse for OpenWrt factory image with dlf extension and hit Apply,
    Wait few minutes, after the Power LED will stop blinking, the router is
    ready for configuration.

Known issues
Some USB 2.0 devices work at full speed mode 1.1 only

MAC addresses

factory partition only contains one (binary) MAC address in 0x4.
u-boot-env contains four (ascii) MAC addresses, of which two appear
to be valid.

  factory     0x4       **:**:**:**:b9:84  binary
  u-boot-env  ethaddr   **:**:**:**:b9:84  ascii
  u-boot-env  wanaddr   **:**:**:**:b9:85  ascii
  u-boot-env  wlanaddr  00:AA:BB:CC:DD:12  ascii
  u-boot-env  iNICaddr  00:AA:BB:CC:DD:22  ascii

The factory firmware only assigns ethaddr. Thus, we take the
binary value which we can use directly in DTS.

Additional information
OEM firmware shell password is: SitecomSenao
useful for creating backup of original firmware.
There is also another revision of this device (v1 001), based on RT3352 SoC

0c721434ea ramips: add support for Linksys EA8100 v2
Specifications:
- SoC: MT7621AT
- RAM: 256MB
- Flash: 128MB NAND
- Ethernet: 5 Gigabit ports
- WiFi: 2.4G/5G MT7615N
- USB: 1 USB 3.0, 1 USB 2.0

This device is very similar to the EA7300 v1/v2, EA7500 v2, and EA8100 v1.

Installation:

Upload the generated factory image through the factory web interface.

(following part taken from EA7300 v2 commit message:)

This might fail due to the A/B nature of this device. When flashing, OEM
firmware writes over the non-booted partition. If booted from 'A',
flashing over 'B' won't work. To get around this, you should flash the
OEM image over itself. This will then boot the router from 'B' and
allow you to flash OpenWRT without problems.

Reverting to factory firmware:

Hard-reset the router three times to force it to boot from 'B.' This is
where the stock firmware resides. To remove any traces of OpenWRT from
your router simply flash the OEM image at this point.

With thanks to Tom Wizetek (@wizetek) for testing.

da8428d277 ipq806x: add support for Askey RT4230W REV6
This adds support for the Askey RT4230W REV6
(Branded by Spectrum/Charter as RAC2V1K)

At this time, there's no way to reinstall the stock firmware so don't install
this on a router that's being rented.

Specifications:

    Qualcomm IPQ8065
    1 GB of RAM (DDR3)
    512 MB Flash (NAND)
    2x Wave 2 WiFi cards (QCA9984)
    5x 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet (Switch: QCA8337)
    1x LED (Controlled by a microcontroller that switches it between red and
        blue with different patterns)
    1x USB 3.0 Type-A
    12V DC Power Input
    UART header on PCB - pinout from top to bottom is RX, TX, GND, 5V
    Port settings are 115200n8

More information: https://forum.openwrt.org/t/askey-rac2v1k-support/15830
https://deviwiki.com/wiki/Askey_RAC2V1K

To check what revision your router is, restore one of these config backups
through the stock firmware to get ssh access then run
"cat /proc/device-tree/model".
https://forum.openwrt.org/t/askey-rac2v1k-support/15830/17
The revision number on the board doesn't seem to be very consistent so that's
why this is needed. You can also run printenv in the uboot console and if
machid is set to 177d, that means your router is rev6.

Note: Don't install this if the router is being rented from an ISP. The defined
partition layout is different from the OEM one and even if you changed the
layout to match, backing up and restoring the OEM firmware breaks /overlay so
nothing will save and the router will likely enter a bootloop.

How to install:

Method 1: Install without opening the case using SSH and tftp

    You'll need:
    RAC2V1K-SSH.zip:
https://github.com/lmore377/openwrt-rt4230w/blob/master/RAC2V1K-SSH.zip
    initramfs and sysupgrade images

    Connect to one of the router's LAN ports

    Download the RAC2V1K-SSH.zip file and restore the config file that
corresponds to your router's firmware (If you're firmware is newer than what's
in the zip file, just restore the 1.1.16 file)

    After a reboot, you should be able to ssh into the router with username:
"4230w" and password: "linuxbox" or "admin". Run the following commannds
     fw_setenv ipaddr 10.42.0.10 #IP of router, can be anything as long as
it's in the same subnet as the server
     fw_setenv serverip 10.42.0.1# #IP of tftp server that's set up in next
steps
     fw_setenv bootdelay 8
     fw_setenv bootcmd "tftpboot initramfs.bin; bootm; bootipq"

    Don't reboot the router yet.

    Install and set up a tftp server on your computer

    Set a static ip on the ethernet interface of your computer (use this for
serverip in the above commands)

    Rename the initramfs image to initramfs.bin, and host it with the tftp
server

    Reboot the router. If you set up everything right, the router led should
switch over to a slow blue glow which means openwrt is booted. If for some
reason the file doesn't get loaded into ram properly, it should still boot to
the OEM firmware.
    After openwrt boots, ssh into it and run these commands:
    fw_setenv bootcmd "setenv mtdids nand0=nand0 && setenv mtdparts
 mtdparts=nand0:0x1A000000@0x2400000(firmware) && ubi part firmware && ubi
read 0x44000000 kernel 0x6e0000 && bootm"
    fw_setenv bootdelay 2

    After openwrt boots up, figure out a way to get the sysupgrade file onto it
(scp, custom build with usb kernel module included, wget, etc.) then flash it
with sysupgrade. After it finishes flashing, it should reboot, the light should
start flashing blue, then when the light starts "breathing" blue that means
openwrt is booted.

Method 2: Install with serial access (Do this if something fails and you can't
boot after using method 1)

    You'll need:
    initramfs and sysupgrade images
    Serial access:
https://openwrt.org/inbox/toh/askey/askey_rt4230w_rev6#opening_the_case

    Install and set up a tftp server

    Set a static ip on the ethernet interface of your computer

    Download the initramfs image, rename it to initramfs.bin, and host it with
the tftp server

    Connect the wan port of the router to your computer

    Interrupt U-Boot and run these commands:
    setenv serverip 10.42.0.1 (You can use whatever ip you set for the computer)
    setenv ipaddr 10.42.0.10 (Can be any ip as long as it's in the same subnet)
    setenv bootcmd "setenv mtdids nand0=nand0 &&
set mtdparts mtdparts=nand0:0x1A000000@0x2400000(firmware) && ubi part firmware
&& ubi read 0x44000000 kernel 0x6e0000 && bootm"

    saveenv
    tftpboot initramfs.bin
    bootm

    After openwrt boots up, figure out a way to get the sysupgrade file onto it
(scp, custom build with usb kernel module included, wget, etc.) then flash it
with sysupgrade. After it finishes flashing, it should reboot, the light should
start flashing blue, then when the light starts "breathing" blue that means
openwrt is booted.

6d23e474ad ramips: add support for Amped Wireless ALLY router and extender
Amped Wireless ALLY is a whole-home WiFi kit, with a router (model
ALLY-R1900K) and an Extender (model ALLY-00X19K).  Both are devices are
11ac and based on MediaTek MT7621AT and MT7615N chips.  The units are
nearly identical, except the Extender lacks a USB port and has a single
Ethernet port.

Specification:
- SoC: MediaTek MT7621AT (2C/4T) @ 880MHz
- RAM: 128MB DDR3 (Nanya NT5CC64M16GP-DI)
- FLASH: 128MB NAND (Winbond W29N01GVSIAA)
- WiFi: 2.4/5 GHz 4T4R
  - 2.4GHz MediaTek MT7615N bgn
  - 5GHz MediaTek MT7615N nac
- Switch: SoC integrated Gigabit Switch
- USB: 1x USB3 (Router only)
- BTN: Reset, WPS
- LED: single RGB
- UART:  through-hole on PCB.
   J1: pin1 (square pad, towards rear)=3.3V, pin2=RX,
   pin3=GND, pin4=TX.  Settings: 57600/8N1.

Note regarding dual system partitions
-------------------------------------

The vendor firmware and boot loader use a dual partition scheme.  The boot
partition is decided by the bootImage U-boot environment variable: 0 for
the 1st partition, 1 for the 2nd.

OpenWrt does not support this scheme and will always use the first OS
partition.  It will set bootImage to 0 during installation, making sure
the first partition is selected by the boot loader.

Also, because we can't be sure which partition is active to begin with, a
2-step flash process is used.  We first flash an initramfs image, then
follow with a regular sysupgrade.

Installation:

Router (ALLY-R1900K)
1) Install the flashable initramfs image via the OEM web-interface.
  (Alternatively, you can use the TFTP recovery method below.)
  You can use WiFi or Ethernet.
  The direct URL is:  http://192.168.3.1/07_06_00_firmware.html
  a. No login is needed, and you'll be in their setup wizard.
  b. You might get a warning about not being connected to the Internet.
  c. Towards the bottom of the page will be a section entitled "Or
  Manually Upgrade Firmware from a File:" where you can manually choose
  and upload a firmware file.
  d: Click "Choose File", select the OpenWRT "initramfs" image and click
  "Upload."
2) The Router will flash the OpenWrt initramfs image and reboot.  After
  booting, LuCI will be available on 192.168.1.1.
3) Log into LuCI as root; there is no password.
4) Optional (but recommended) is to backup the OEM firmware before
  continuing; see process below.
5) Complete the Installation by flashing a full OpenWRT image.  Note:
  you may use the sysupgrade command line tool in lieu of the UI if
  you prefer.
  a.  Choose System -> Backup/Flash Firmware.
  b.  Click "Flash Image..." under "Flash new firmware image"
  c.  Click "Browse..." and then select the sysupgrade file.
  d.  Click Upload to upload the sysupgrade file.
  e.  Important:  uncheck "Keep settings and retain the current
      configuration" for this initial installation.
  f.  Click "Continue" to flash the firmware.
  g.  The device will reboot and OpenWRT is installed.

Extender (ALLY-00X19K)
1) This device requires a TFTP recovery procedure to do an initial load
  of OpenWRT.  Start by configuring a computer as a TFTP client:
  a. Install a TFTP client (server not necessary)
  b. Configure an Ethernet interface to 192.168.1.x/24; don't use .1 or .6
  c. Connect the Ethernet to the sole Ethernet port on the X19K.
2) Put the ALLY Extender in TFTP recovery mode.
  a. Do this by pressing and holding the reset button on the bottom while
  connecting the power.
  b. As soon as the LED lights up green (roughly 2-3 seconds), release
  the button.
3) Start the TFTP transfer of the Initramfs image from your setup machine.
For example, from Linux:
tftp -v -m binary 192.168.1.6 69 -c put initramfs.bin
4) The Extender will flash the OpenWrt initramfs image and reboot.  After
booting, LuCI will be available on 192.168.1.1.
5) Log into LuCI as root; there is no password.
6) Optional (but recommended) is to backup the OEM firmware before
  continuing; see process below.
7) Complete the Installation by flashing a full OpenWRT image.  Note: you
may use the sysupgrade command line tool in lieu of the UI if you prefer.
  a.  Choose System -> Backup/Flash Firmware.
  b.  Click "Flash Image..." under "Flash new firmware image"
  c.  Click "Browse..." and then select the sysupgrade file.
  d.  Click Upload to upload the sysupgrade file.
  e.  Important:  uncheck "Keep settings and retain the current
      configuration" for this initial installation.
  f.  Click "Continue" to flash the firmware.
  g.  The device will reboot and OpenWRT is installed.

Backup the OEM Firmware:
-----------------------

There isn't any downloadable firmware for the ALLY devices on the Amped
Wireless web site. Reverting back to the OEM firmware is not possible
unless we have a backup of the original OEM firmware.

The OEM firmware may be stored on either /dev/mtd3 ("firmware") or
/dev/mtd6 ("oem").  We can't be sure which was overwritten with the
initramfs image, so backup both partitions to be safe.

  1) Once logged into LuCI, navigate to System -> Backup/Flash Firmware.
  2) Under "Save mtdblock contents," first select "firmware" and click
  "Save mtdblock" to download the image.
  3) Repeat the process, but select "oem" from the pull-down menu.

Revert to the OEM Firmware:
--------------------------
* U-boot TFTP:
  Follow the TFTP recovery steps for the Extender, and use the
  backup image.

* OpenWrt "Flash Firmware" interface:
  Upload the backup image and select "Force update"
  before continuing.

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.

Flashing instructions:
======================

Various methods can be used to install the actual image on the flash.
Two easy ones are:

ap51-flash
----------

The tool ap51-flash (https://github.com/ap51-flash/ap51-flash) should be
used to transfer the image to the u-boot when the device boots up.

initramfs from TFTP
-------------------

The serial console must be used to access the u-boot shell during bootup.
It can then be used to first boot up the initramfs image from a TFTP server
(here with the IP 192.168.1.21):

   setenv serverip 192.168.1.21
   setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
   tftpboot 0c00000 <filename-of-initramfs-kernel>.bin && bootm $fileaddr

The actual sysupgrade image can then be transferred (on the LAN port) to the
device via

  scp <filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/

On the device, the sysupgrade must then be started using

  sysupgrade -n /tmp/<filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin

It can then be used to first boot up the initramfs image from a TFTP server
(here with the IP 192.168.1.21):

   setenv serverip 192.168.1.21
   setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
   tftpboot 0c00000 <filename-of-initramfs-kernel>.bin && bootm $fileaddr

The actual sysupgrade image can then be transferred (on the LAN port) to the
device via

  scp <filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/

On the device, the sysupgrade must then be started using

  sysupgrade -n /tmp/<filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin

The current version of 'uboot-envtools' package generates dedicated
uci-default file only per target. This change makes it possible to
use subtarget-specific files, with name pattern: 'target_subtarget'
(example: 'ath79_nand'). The subtarget-specific files will take

2449a63208 ramips: mt7621: Add support for ZyXEL NR7101
The ZyXEL NR7101 is an 802.3at PoE powered 5G outdoor (IP68) CPE
with integrated directional 5G/LTE antennas.

Specifications:

 - SoC: MediaTek MT7621AT
 - RAM: 256 MB
 - Flash: 128 MB MB NAND (MX30LF1G18AC)
 - WiFi: MediaTek MT7603E
 - Switch: 1 LAN port (Gigabiti)
 - 5G/LTE: Quectel RG502Q-EA connected by USB3 to SoC
 - SIM: 2 micro-SIM slots under transparent cover
 - Buttons: Reset, WLAN under same cover
 - LEDs: Multicolour green/red/yellow under same cover (visible)
 - Power: 802.3at PoE via LAN port

The device is built as an outdoor ethernet to 5G/LTE bridge or
router. The Wifi interface is intended for installation and/or
temporary management purposes only.

UART Serial:

57600N1
Located on populated 5 pin header J5:

 [o] GND
 [ ] key - no pin
 [o] RX
 [o] TX
 [o] 3.3V Vcc

Remove the SIM/button/LED cover, the WLAN button and 12 screws
holding the back plate and antenna cover together. The GPS antenna
is fixed to the cover, so be careful with the cable.  Remove 4
screws fixing the antenna board to the main board, again being
careful with the cables.

A bluetooth TTL adapter is recommended for permanent console
access, to keep the router water and dustproof. The 3.3V pin is
able to power such an adapter.

MAC addresses:

OpenWrt OEM   Address          Found as

wwan0   usb0  random

WARNING!!

ISP managed firmware might at any time update itself to a version
where all known workarounds have been disabled.  Never boot an ISP
managed firmware with a SIM in any of the slots if you intend to use
the router with OpenWrt. The bootloader lock can only be disabled with
root access to running firmware. The flash chip is physically
inaccessible without soldering.

Installation from OEM web GUI:

- Log in as "supervisor" on https://172.17.1.1/
- Upload OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.bin image on the
  Maintenance -> Firmware page
- Wait for OpenWrt to boot and ssh to root@192.168.1.1
- (optional) Copy OpenWrt to the recovery partition. See below
- Sysupgrade to the OpenWrt sysupgrade image and reboot

Installation from OEM ssh:

- Log in as "root" on 172.17.1.1 port 22022
- scp OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.bin image to 172.17.1.1:/tmp
- Prepare bootloader config by running:
    nvram setro uboot DebugFlag 0x1
    nvram setro uboot CheckBypass 0
    nvram commit
- Run "mtd_write -w write initramfs-recovery.bin Kernel" and reboot
- Wait for OpenWrt to boot and ssh to root@192.168.1.1
- (optional) Copy OpenWrt to the recovery partition. See below
- Sysupgrade to the OpenWrt sysupgrade image and reboot

Copying OpenWrt to the recovery partition:

- Verify that you are running a working OpenWrt recovery image
  from flash
- ssh to root@192.168.1.1 and run:
    fw_setenv CheckBypass 0
    mtd -r erase Kernel2
- Wait while the bootloader mirrors Image1 to Image2

NOTE: This should only be done after successfully booting the OpenWrt
  recovery image from the primary partition during installation.  Do
  not do this after having sysupgraded OpenWrt!  Reinstalling the
  recovery image on normal upgrades is not required or recommended.

Installation from Z-Loader:

- Halt boot by pressing Escape on console
- Set up a tftp server to serve the OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.bin
  image at 10.10.10.3
- Type "ATNR 1,initramfs-recovery.bin" at the "ZLB>" prompt
- Wait for OpenWrt to boot and ssh to root@192.168.1.1
- Sysupgrade to the OpenWrt sysupgrade image

NOTE: ATNR will write the recovery image to both primary and recovery
  partitions in one go.

Booting from RAM:

- Halt boot by pressing Escape on console
- Type "ATGU" at the "ZLB>" prompt to enter the U-Boot menu
- Press "4" to select "4: Entr boot command line interface."
- Set up a tftp server to serve the OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.bin
  image at 10.10.10.3
- Load it using "tftpboot 0x88000000 initramfs-recovery.bin"
- Boot with "bootm  0x8800017C" to skip the 380 (0x17C) bytes ZyXEL
  header

This method can also be used to RAM boot OEM firmware. The warning
regarding OEM applies!  Never boot an unknown OEM firmware, or any OEM
firmware with a SIM in any slot.

NOTE: U-Boot configuration is incomplete (on some devices?). You may
  have to configure a working mac address before running tftp using
   "setenv eth0addr <mac>"

Unlocking the bootloader:

If you are unebale to halt boot, then the bootloader is locked.

The OEM firmware locks the bootloader on every boot by setting
DebugFlag to 0.  Setting it to 1 is therefore only temporary
when OEM firmware is installed.

- Run "nvram setro uboot DebugFlag 0x1; nvram commit" in OEM firmware
- Run "fw_setenv DebugFlag 0x1" in OpenWrt

  NOTE:
    OpenWrt does this automatically on first boot if necessary

  NOTE2:
    Setting the flag to 0x1 avoids the reset to 0 in known OEM
    versions, but this might change.

  WARNING:
    Writing anything to flash while the bootloader is locked is
    considered extremely risky. Errors might cause a permanent
    brick!

Enabling management access from LAN:

Temporary workaround to allow installing OpenWrt if OEM firmware
has disabled LAN management:

- Connect to console
- Log in as "root"
- Run "iptables -I INPUT -i br0 -j ACCEPT"

Notes on the OEM/bootloader dual partition scheme

The dual partition scheme on this device uses Image2 as a recovery
image only. The device will always boot from Image1, but the
bootloader might copy Image2 to Image1 under specific conditions. This
scheme prevents repurposing of the space occupied by Image2 in any
useful way.

Validation of primary and recovery images is controlled by the
variables CheckBypass, Image1Stable, and Image1Try.

The bootloader sets CheckBypass to 0 and reboots if Image1 fails
validation.

If CheckBypass is 0 and Image1 is invalid then Image2 is copied to
Image1.

If CheckBypass is 0 and Image2 is invalid, then Image1 is copied to
Image2.

If CheckBypass is 1 then all tests are skipped and Image1 is booted
unconditionally.  CheckBypass is set to 1 after each successful
validation of Image1.

Image1Try is incremented if Image1Stable is 0, and Image2 is copied to
Image1 if Image1Try is 3 or larger.  But the bootloader only tests
Image1Try if CheckBypass is 0, which is impossible unless the booted
image sets it to 0 before failing.

The system is therefore not resilient against runtime errors like
failure to mount the rootfs, unless the kernel image sets CheckBypass
to 0 before failing. This is not yet implemented in OpenWrt.

Setting Image1Stable to 1 prevents the bootloader from updating
Image1Try on every boot, saving unnecessary writes to the environment
partition.

Keeping an OpenWrt initramfs recovery as Image2 is recommended
primarily to avoid unwanted OEM firmware boots on failure. Ref the
warning above. It enables console-less recovery in case of some
failures to boot from Image1.

Most (all?) of the realtek devices have two u-boot config partitions
with a different set of variables in each. The U-Boot shell provides
two sets of apps to manipulate these:

 printenv- print environment variables
 printsys- printsys - print system information variables
 saveenv - save environment variables to persistent storage
 savesys - savesys - save system information variables to persistent storage
 setenv  - set environment variables
 setsys  - setsys  - set system information variables

Add support for multiple ubootenv configuration types, allowing
more than one configuration file.

Section names are not suitable for naming the different
configurations since each file can be the result of multiple sections
in case of backup partitions.

Boot ramdisk from U-Boot
----------------------------
This will load the image and not write it into the flash.

1. Stop boot menu with "space" key
2. Select "System Load Linux to SDRAM via TFTP."
3. Load this image:
   openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-buffalo_wsr-2533dhp2-initramfs-kernel.bin
4. The system boots the image

Write to flash from U-Boot
-----------------------------
This will load the image over tftp and directly write it into the flash.

1. Stop boot menu with "space" key
2. Select "System Load Linux Kernel then write to Flash via TFTP."
3. Load this image:
   openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-buffalo_wsr-2533dhp2-squashfs-factory-uboot.bin
4. The system writes this image into the flash and boots into it.

Write to flash from Web UI
-----------------------------
This will load the image over over the Web UI and write it into the flash

1. Open the Web UI
2. Go to "管理" -> "ファームウェア更新"
3. Select "ローカルファイル指定" and click "更新実行"
4. Load this image:
   openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-buffalo_wsr-2533dhp2-squashfs-factory.bin
5. The system writes this image into the flash and boots into it.

e6ba970b6e realtek: Add ZyXEL GS1900-8
The ZyXEL GS1900-8 is a 8 port switch without any PoE functionality or
SFP ports, but otherwise similar to the other GS1900 switches.

Specifications
--------------
* Device:    ZyXEL GS1900-8 v1.2
* SoC:       Realtek RTL8380M 500 MHz MIPS 4KEc
* Flash:     Macronix MX25L12835F 16 MiB
* RAM:       Nanya NT5TU128M8GE-AC 128 MiB DDR2 SDRAM
* Ethernet:  8x 10/100/1000 Mbit
* LEDs:      1 PWR LED (green, not configurable)
             1 SYS LED (green, configurable)
             8 ethernet port status LEDs (green, SoC controlled)
* Buttons:   1 on-off glide switch at the back (not configurable)
             1 reset button at the right side, behind the air-vent
               (not configurable)
             1 reset button on front panel (configurable)
* Power      12V 1A barrel connector
* UART:      1 serial header (JP2) with populated standard pin connector on
             the left side of the PCB, towards the back. Pins are labelled:
             + VCC (3.3V)
             + TX (really RX)
             + RX (really TX)
             + GND
             the labelling is done from the usb2serial connector's point of
             view, so RX/ TX are mixed up.

Serial connection parameters for both devices: 115200 8N1.

Installation
------------
Instructions are identical to those for the GS1900-10HP and GS1900-8HP.

* Configure your client with a static 192.168.1.x IP (e.g. 192.168.1.10).
* Set up a TFTP server on your client and make it serve the initramfs
  image.
* Connect serial, power up the switch, interrupt U-boot by hitting the
  space bar, and enable the network:
  > rtk network on
* Since the GS1900-10HP is a dual-partition device, you want to keep the
  OEM firmware on the backup partition for the time being. OpenWrt can
  only boot off the first partition anyway (hardcoded in the DTS). To
  make sure we are manipulating the first partition, issue the following
  commands:
  > setsys bootpartition 0
  > savesys
* Download the image onto the device and boot from it:
  > tftpboot 0x84f00000 192.168.1.10:openwrt-realtek-generic-zyxel_gs1900-8-initramfs-kernel.bin
  > bootm
* Once OpenWrt has booted, scp the sysupgrade image to /tmp and flash it:
  > sysupgrade /tmp/openwrt-realtek-generic-zyxel_gs1900-8-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
