The GatoNetworks GDSP is a re-branded version of the R5000 5G Industrial
router from Yinghua Technologies.
Advantages over stock bootloader:
1. supports serving the external GPIO WDT, allowing for easier work in U-Boot
shell
2. supports cool features like netconsole, easy recovery, scripting and so on
3. allows using FIT image and image integrity validation
and ultimately gives you much more flexibility to implement your tweaks.
Known issues
------------
To make it easier to operate the device, console I/O multiplexing support has
been enabled in U-Boot configuration. Setting I/O related U-Boot environment
variables to something like "serial,nc" will have the desired effect. Still,
setting these variables to such a value in the persistent environment will
lead to a crash and make it impossible to boot the system or recover it. I
decided to leave it on anyway since I think it can be very practical in
development.

Using the arrow keys to navigate the U-Boot menu often leads to being
dropped into the U-Boot shell unexpectedly.
This can be prevented in most cases by improving the logic to detect the
arrow key ESC sequence and only reprinting the menu if actually needed.
Also enable CONFIG_SERIAL_RX_BUFFER for all boards as it helps preventing
the remaining cases.

Building uboot-mediatek fails with GCC-14, uboot v2024.10 and
CONFIG_SYS_NONCACHED_MEMORY defined with error:
cmd/cache.c: In function 'do_dcache':
cmd/cache.c:57:25: error: implicit declaration of function
'noncached_set_region' [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
This is caused by upstream commit 7d6cee2cd0e2e2507aca1e3a6fe0e2cb241a116e
("cmd: cache: Remove weak functions") as this removes weak functions in
favor of arch-specific definitions.
This patch adds the function prototype for `noncached_set_region` to
arch-specific header for ARM. It also adds an include in cmd/cache.c to
make the function available there.

Add u-boot support based on the kernel dts introduced in d1016446 and
the GL-MT6000 u-boot support in fe10f974.
The pcie-mediatek-gen3 kernel driver doesn't like hotplug, so to work in
PCIe mode, the 5G modem on this device needs to be switched on by u-boot
before starting the kernel. Include an init_modem step in the boot_system
action to set the relevant gpios. (The factory bootloader does the same,
using Mediatek SDK-specific gpio_power_clr and gpio_pull_up.)
Ideally the modem would be started using gpio-hog in the device tree, but
this will need to wait until mediatek gpio-hog support is fixed upstream:
https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/6ef2583e85eea60560d7776377d662779e7c44e5.1722419839.git.chris@arachsys.com/
The bootloader can be replaced using the built-in web interface of the
factory bootloader. Hold the reset button for five seconds while powering
on the device and it will boot into a recovery http server.
http://192.168.1.1/uboot.html and http://192.168.1.1/bl2.html can then
be used to upload openwrt-mediatek-filogic-glinet_gl-x3000-bl31-uboot.fip
and openwrt-mediatek-filogic-glinet_gl-x3000-preloader.bin respectively.
Alternatively, from a root shell on the running system, unlock the boot
partition with
echo 0 >/sys/block/mmcblk0boot0/force_ro
then write openwrt-mediatek-filogic-glinet_gl-x3000-bl31-uboot.fip to
/dev/mmcblk0p4 and openwrt-mediatek-filogic-glinet_gl-x3000-preloader.bin
to /dev/mmcblk0boot0.
