MikroTik RB951G-2HnD is a wireless SOHO router that was previously
supported by the ar71xx target, see commit 7a709573d7 ("ar71xx: add
kernel support for the Mikrotik RB951G board").
Specifications
--------------
- SoC: Atheros AR9344 (600 MHz)
- RAM: 128 MB (2x 64 MB)
- Storage: 128 MB NAND flash (various manufacturers)
- Ethernet: Atheros AR8327 switch, 5x 10/100/1000 Mbit/s
- 1x PoE in (port 1, 8-30 V input)
- Wireless: Atheros AR9340 (802.11b/g/n)
- USB: 2.0 (1A)
- 8x LED:
- 1x power (green, not configurable)
- 1x user (green, not configurable)
- 5x GE ports (green, not configurable)
- 1x wireless (green, not configurable)
- 1x button (restart)
Unlike on the RB951Ui-2HnD, none of the LEDs on this device seem to be
GPIO-controllable, which was also the case for older OpenWRT versions
that supported this board via a mach file. The Ethernet port LEDs are
controlled by the switch chip.
See https://mikrotik.com/product/RB951G-2HnD for more details.

The R3 (TX line) and R6 (RX line) are absent on the PCB. You should

Installation (UART)
-------------------
1. Place OpenWrt initramfs image on tftp server with IP 192.168.1.2
2. Attach UART, switch on the router and interrupt the boot process by
pressing 'Ctrl-C'
3. Load and run OpenWrt initramfs image:
tftpboot initramfs-kernel.bin
bootm
4. Once inside OpenWrt, set / update env variables:
fw_setenv baudrate 115200
fw_setenv bootargs "ubi.mtd=ubi0 console=ttyS0,115200n1 loglevel=8 earlycon=uart8250,mmio32,0x11002000 init=/etc/preinit"

fw_setenv mtdparts "spi-nand0:2M(boot),1M(u-boot-env),50M(ubi0),50M(ubi1),8M(userconfig),4M(tp_data)"
fw_setenv netmask 255.255.255.0

fw_setenv stderr serial@11002000
fw_setenv stdin serial@11002000
fw_setenv stdout serial@11002000
fw_setenv tp_boot_idx 0
5. Run 'sysupgrade -n' with the sysupgrade OpenWrt image
Installation (without UART)
---------------------------
1. Login as root via SSH (router IP, port 20001, password - your web
interface password)
2. Open for editing /etc/hotplug.d/iface/65-iptv (e.g., using WinSCP and
SSH settings from the p.1)
3. Add a newline after "#!/bin/sh":
telnetd -l /bin/login.sh
4. Save "65-iptv" file
5. Toggle "IPTV/VLAN Enable" checkbox in the router web interface and
save
6. Make sure that telnetd is running:
netstat -ltunp | grep 23
7. Login via telnet to router IP, port 23 (no username and password are
required)
8 Upload OpenWrt "initramfs-kernel.bin" to the "/tmp" folder of the
router (e.g., using WinSCP and SSH settings from the p.1)
9. Stock busybox doesn't contain ubiupdatevol command. Hence, we need to
download and upload the full version of busybox to the router. For
example, from here:
https://github.com/xerta555/Busybox-Binaries/raw/master/busybox-arm64
Upload busybox-arm64 to the /tmp dir of the router and run:
in the telnet shell:
cd /tmp
chmod a+x busybox-arm64
10. Check "initramfs-kernel.bin" size:
du -h initramfs-kernel.bin
11. Delete old and create new "kernel" volume with appropriate size
(greater than "initramfs-kernel.bin" size):
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -N kernel
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 1 -N kernel -s 9MiB
12. Write OpenWrt "initramfs-kernel.bin" to the flash:
./busybox-arm64 ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_1 /tmp/initramfs-kernel.bin
13. u-boot-env can be empty so lets create it (or overwrite it if it
already exists) with the necessary values:
fw_setenv baudrate 115200
fw_setenv bootargs "ubi.mtd=ubi0 console=ttyS0,115200n1 loglevel=8 earlycon=uart8250,mmio32,0x11002000 init=/etc/preinit"
fw_setenv fdtcontroladdr 5ffc0e70
fw_setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
fw_setenv loadaddr 0x46000000
fw_setenv mtdids "spi-nand0=spi-nand0"
fw_setenv mtdparts "spi-nand0:2M(boot),1M(u-boot-env),50M(ubi0),50M(ubi1),8M(userconfig),4M(tp_data)"
fw_setenv netmask 255.255.255.0
fw_setenv serverip 192.168.1.2
fw_setenv stderr serial@11002000
fw_setenv stdin serial@11002000
fw_setenv stdout serial@11002000
fw_setenv tp_boot_idx 0
14. Reboot to OpenWrt initramfs:
reboot
15. Login as root via SSH (IP 192.168.1.1, port 22)
16. Upload OpenWrt sysupgrade.bin image to the /tmp dir of the router
17. Run sysupgrade:
sysupgrade -n /tmp/sysupgrade.bin

--------
1. Press Reset button and power on the router
2. Navigate to U-Boot recovery web server (http://192.168.1.1/) and

After migrating to kernel 5.15, upgrading causes the units to become
soft-bricked, hanging forever at the kernel startup.
Kernel size limitation of 4000000 bytes is suspected here, but this is
not fully confirmed.
Disable the images to protect users from inadvertent bricking of units,
because recovery of those is painful with Cisco's U-boot, until the root
cause is found and fixed.

be directly used to install OpenWrt. Firmware must be upgraded using the
'force' and 'do not save configuration' command line options (or
correspondig web interface checkboxes) since the vendor firmware is from
the pre-DSA era.
Recovery Mode:

* Upload sysupgrade image through the firmware recovery mode web page at
192.168.1.1.

Aligned to size of mtd-concat partition (firmware)
- in this device we have mtd-concat driver that joins multiple flash partitions
- since sysupgrade works with mtd devices the rootfs partition is already joined
- we can use a bigger sysupgrade image than factory/TFTP install images
Checked on hardware, no issues seen.
No modifications to images other than sysupgrade (i.e. TFTP / recovery images not touched).

The data RAC is left disabled by the bootloader in some SoCs, at least in
the core it boots from. Enabling this feature increases the performance up
to +30% depending on the task.
The kernel enables the whole RAC unconditionally on BMIPS3300 CPUs. Enable
the data RAC in a similar way also for BMIPS4350.

increase is just 2°C and Watt usage the change is minimal in the order

some problem with cache scaling. To have better system stability, force
cpu freq and cache freq to the max value supported by the system. This

This is needed on devices like Sercomm AD1018 for booting recent kernels due
to bigger kernels.

Maintaining bcm63xx is a nightmare due to the amount of devices and patches
required, since every board requires an individual patch due to the lack of
full device tree compatibility.
Moreover, there are a lot of devices supported on this target which won't work
due to not having enough resources (16M-32M of RAM and/or 4M of flash).
Therefore, any development efforts should be focused on bmips and support for
those devices with enough resources should be added on bmips target.

The Actiontec R1000H is a gigabit wifi router, 2.4 GHz single band with
two external antennas. It comes with a coaxial HomePNA port.
Hardware:
- SoC: Broadcom BCM6368
- CPU: dual core BMIPS4350 V3.1 @400Mhz
- RAM: 64 MB DDR
- Flash: 32 MB parallel NOR
- LAN switch: Broadcom BCM53115, 5x 1Gbit
- LAN coaxial : 1x HPNA 3.1, CG3211 + CG3213
- Wifi 2.4 GHz: Broadcom BCM4322 802.11bgn
- USB: 1x 2.0
- Buttons: 2x, 1 reset
- LEDs: 7x
- UART: yes
The HPNA hardware probably needs a firmware to make the coaxial port work.
In the OEM firmware, it's apparently sent with an utility (inhpna) through
the ethernet port.
Installation via CFE web UI:
1. Connect the UART serial port.
2. Power on the router and press enter at the console prompt to stop the
bootloader.
4. Browse to http://192.168.1.1 and upload the OpenWrt CFE firmware
5. Wait a few minutes for it to finish

Now that JFFS2 cleanmarkers are supported on the standard nand_do_upgrade
function we can start using it on bcm63xx.

The DGND3700v2 renames the cferam bootloader from cferam to cfeXXX, where XXX
is the number of firmware upgrades performed by the bootloader. Other bcm63xx
devices rename cferam.000 to cferam.XXX, but this device is special because
the cferam name isn't changed on the first firmware flashing but it's changed
on the subsequent ones.
Therefore, we need to look for "cfe" instead of "cferam" to properly detect
the cferam partition and fix the bootlop.

Some devices rename cferam bootloader using specific patterns and don't follow
broadcom standards for renaming cferam files. This requires supporting
different cferam file names.
