For all boards currently working with the mt7530 DSA driver we can
be sure that the address of the switch on the MDIO bus is 31 --
simply because that address is hard-coded in the driver and the
address from the Device Tree is being ignore.
An upcoming patch will add support for MT753x ICs which are programmed
to addresses different from 0x1f using bootstrap pins. As a result the
address from the Device Tree will then be taken into account, which
will break currently working boards which got the address set to
anything else than 31.
While at it also unify the syntax in Device Tree to always us a decimal
value for the 'reg' property.

MT7915 requires an additional antenna for background radar scanning.
Disable this feature in the following devices that do not have a
separate DFS antenna:
linksys,e8450
ruijie,rg-ew3200gx-pro

This patch implements the spi-nand controller driver as an ECC-capable
spi-mem controller to use the upstream SPI-NAND driver.

Turns out the MT7531 switch IRQ line is connected to GPIO#53 just like
on the BPi-R64, so this seems to be part of the reference design and
will probably apply to most MT7622+MT7531 boards.

There is an ASMedia ASM1480 PCIe switch found on mt7622-rfb1 and the
BPi-R64, allowing the user to switch between SATA and PCIe1 which share
the same pins on the SoC.
This chip is not present on the Linksys E8450, it doesn't have SATA.
Remove definitions for GPIO90 from DTSI to prevent it from being
copy&pasted or otherwise causing confusion.

The vendor flash layout of the Linksys E8450 is problematic as it uses
the SPI-NAND chip without any wear-leveling while at the same time
wasting a lot of space for padding.
Use an all-UBI layout instead, storing the kernel+dtb+squashfs in
uImage.FIT standard format in UBI volume 'fit', the read-write
overlay in UBI volume 'rootfs_data' as well as reduntant U-Boot
environments 'ubootenv' and 'ubootenv2', and a 'recovery'
kernel+dtb+initramfs uImage.FIT for dual-boot.
** WARNING **
THIS PROCEDURE CAN EASILY BRICK YOUR DEVICE PERMANENTLY IF NOT CARRIED
OUT VERY CAREFULLY AND EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED!
Step 0
* Configure your PC to have the static IPv4 address 192.168.1.254/24
* Provide bin/targets/mediatek/mt7622 via TFTP
Now continue EITHER with step 1A or 1B, depending on your preference
(and on having serial console wired up or not).
Step 1A (Using the vendor web interface (or non-UBI OpenWrt install))
In order to update to the new bootloader and UBI-based firmware,
use the web browser of your choice to open the routers web-interface
accessible on http://192.168.1.1
* Navigate to
'Configuration' -> 'Administration' -> 'Firmware Upgrade'
* Upload the file
openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-initramfs-recovery.itb
and proceed with the upgrade.
* Once OpenWrt comes up, use SCP to upload the new bootloader files to
/tmp on the router:
*-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-preloader.bin
*-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-bl31-uboot.fip
* Connect via SSH as you will now need to replace the bootloader in
the Flash.
ssh root@192.168.1.1
(the usual warnings)
* First of all, backup all the flash now:
for mtd in /dev/mtdblock*; do
dd if=$mtd of=/tmp/$(basename $mtd);
done
* Then use SCP to copy /tmp/mtdblock* from the router and keep them
safe. You will need them should you ever want to return to the
factory firmware!
* Now flow the uploaded files:
mtd -e /dev/mtd0 write /tmp/*linksys_e8450-ubi-preloader.bin /dev/mtd0
mtd -e /dev/mtd1 write /tmp/*linksys_e8450-ubi-bl31-uboot.fip /dev/mtd1
If and only if both writes look like the completed successfully
reboot the router. Now continue with step 2.
Step 1B (Using the vendor bootloader serial console)
* Use the serial to backup all /dev/mtd* devices before using the
stock firmware (you got root shell when connected to serial).
* Then reboot and select 'U-Boot Console' in the boot menu.
* Copy the following lines, one by one:
tftpboot 0x40080000 openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-preloader.bin
tftpboot 0x40100000 openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-bl31-uboot.fip
nand erase 0x0 0x180000
nand write 0x40080000 0x0 0x180000
reset
Now continue with step 2
Step 2
Once the new bootchain comes up, the loader will initialize UBI and the
ubootenv volumes. It will then of course fail to find any bootable
volume and hence resort to load kernel via TFTP from server
192.168.1.254 while giving itself the address 192.168.1.1
The requested file is called
openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-initramfs-recovery.itb
and your TFTP server should provide exactly that :)
It will be written to UBI as recovery image and booted.
You can then continue and flash the production OS image, either
by using sysupgrade in the booted initramfs recovery OS, or by using
the bootloader menu and TFTP.
That's it. Go ahead and mess around with a bootchain built almost
completely from source (only DRAM calibration blobs are fitted in bl2,
and the irreplacable on-chip ROM loader remains, of course).
And enjoy U-Boot built with many great features out-of-the-box.
You can access the bootloader environment from within OpenWrt using the
'fw_printenv' and 'fw_setenv' commands. Don't be afraid, once you got
the new bootchain installed the device should be fairly unbrickable
(holding reset button before and during power-on resets things and
allows reflashing recovery image via TFTP)
Special thanks to @dvn0 (Devan Carpenter) for providing amazingly fast
infra for test-builds, allowing for `make clean ; make -j$(nproc)` in
less than two minutes :)
