Starting with v3 of the vendor firmware for the TP-Link EAP235-Wall v1,
downgrades to firmware versions below v3 as not allowed. Since OpenWrt
uses version 0.0.0 as a default, this causes the factory install to fail
on devices with a recent firmware. This failure is associated by the
following message on the device's serial console:
EAP235/230-Wall forbid fw reverted from 3.x.x to lower version!
Vendor firmware (v3) also uses build and release numbers to compare
images, so identical version numbers are very unlikely to cause issues.
Bump the firmware version to 3.0.0 to ensure users can install OpenWrt
on their devices.

Some devices using the safeloader firmware format require a minimum or
specific version to be set in the soft-version metadata partition.
Currently only custom text values can be provided, but not all device
firmware support this format.
Modify the device info struct to allow for more well-defined types of
soft-version overwrites, and provide a few macros for easy value
initialisation. Requires all existing values to be updated to match the
new structure.

The structured soft-version partition has a field which contains a
(source) revision number. Factory images used to include this, but
it was accidentaly removed during an earlier refactoring.
Include the source revision number again in the generated soft-version

This was missed because scancode license scanner was confused by a
slightly different than expected license text (96,75% license score).
License text included "file" instead of "library" in the main part of
the licensing info. It also used "The GNU C Library" instead of the
standard "This library" in 2nd and 3rd paragraphs.
The first paragraph clearly mentions LGPL-2.1-or-later and the use of

The mtdsplit parser for uImage now supports identifying images
with any magic number value
and at any offset from the eraseblock boundary
using DTS properties to define those values.

* Buttons: Reset, WPS.
* UART: Serial console (115200 8n1), J1(GND:3)
* USB: One USB2 port.
Installation:
------------
Install the OpenWrt factory image for C6U is from the
TP-Link web interface.
1) Go to "Advanced/System Tools/Firmware Update".
2) Click "Browse" and upload the OpenWrt factory image:
openwrt-ramips-mt7621-tplink_archer-c6u-v1-squashfs-factory.bin.
3) Click the "Upgrade" button, and select "Yes" when prompted.
Recovery to stock firmware:
--------------------------
The C6U bootloader has a failsafe mode that provides a web
interface (running at 192.168.0.1) for reverting back to the
stock TP-Link firmware. The failsafe interface is triggered
from the serial console or on failed kernel boot. Unfortunately,
there's no key combination that enables the failsafe mode. This
gives us two options for recovery:
1) Recover using the serial console (J1 header).
The recovery interface can be selected by hitting 'x' when
prompted on boot.
2) Trigger the bootloader failsafe mode.
A more dangerous option is force the bootloader into
recovery mode by erasing the OpenWrt partition from the
OpenWrt's shell - e.g "mtd erase firmware". Please be
careful, since erasing the wrong partition can brick
your device.

The ZyXEL NR7101 prepend an additional header to U-Boot images. This
header use the TRX magic 0x30524448 (HDR0), but is incompatible with
TRX images.
This code is reverse-engineered based on matching 32 bit numbers
found in the header with lengths and different checksum
calculations of the vendor images found on the device. The result
was matched against the validation output produced by the
bootloader to name the associated header fields.
Example bootloader validation output:
Zyxel TRX Image 1 --> Found! Header Checksum OK
============ZyXEL header information==================
chipId : MT7621A
boardId : NR7101
modelId : 07 01 00 01

kernelChksum : (0x8DD31F69)
swVersionInt : 1.00(ABUV.0)D1
swVersionExt : 1.00(ABUV.0)D1
Zyxel TRX Image 2 --> Found! Header Checksum OK
============ZyXEL header information==================
chipId : MT7621A
boardId : NR7101
modelId : 07 01 00 01
kernel_len : (14176660)
kernelChksum : (0x951A7637)
swVersionInt : 1.00(ABUV.0)D0
swVersionExt : 1.00(ABUV.0)D0
=================================================
Check image validation:
Image1 Header Magic Number --> OK
Image2 Header Magic Number --> OK
Image1 Header Checksum --> OK
Image2 Header Checksum --> OK
Image1 Data Checksum --> OK
Image2 Data Checksum --> OK
Image1 Stable Flag --> Stable
Image1 Try Counter --> 0
Image1: OK
Image2: OK
The coverage and algorithm for the kernelChksum field is unknown.
This field is not validated by the bootloader or the OEM firmware
upgrade tool. It is therefore set to a static value for now.
The swVersion fields contain free form string values. The OEM firmware
use ZyXEL structured version numbers as shown above. The strings are
not interpreted or validated on boot, so they can be repurposed for
anything we want the bootloader to display to the user. But the OEM
web GUI fails to flash images with freeform strings.
The purpose of the other strings in the header is not known. The
values appear to be static. We assume they are fixed for now, until
we have other examples. One of these strings is the platform name,
which is taken as an input parameter for support other members of
the device family.

This version check in vendor firmware is implemented in

...
if (((int)upd_fw_major < (int)cur_fw_major) ||

The TP-Link EAP235-Wall is a wall-mounted, PoE-powered AC1200 access
point with four gigabit ethernet ports.
When connecting to the device's serial port, it is strongly advised to
use an isolated UART adapter. This prevents linking different power
domains created by the PoE power supply, which may damage your devices.
The device's U-Boot supports saving modified environments with
`saveenv`. However, there is no u-boot-env partition, and saving
modifications will cause the partition table to be overwritten. This is
not an issue for running OpenWrt, but will prevent the vendor FW from
functioning properly.
Device specifications:
* SoC: MT7621DAT
* RAM: 128MiB
* Flash: 16MiB SPI-NOR
* Wireless 2.4GHz (MT7603EN): b/g/n, 2x2
* Wireless 5GHz (MT7613BEN): a/n/ac, 2x2
* Ethernet: 4× GbE
* Back side: ETH0, PoE PD port
* Bottom side: ETH1, ETH2, ETH3
* Single white device LED
* LED button, reset button (available for failsafe)
* PoE pass-through on port ETH3 (enabled with GPIO)
Datasheet of the flash chip specifies a maximum frequency of 33MHz, but
that didn't work. 20MHz gives no errors with reading (flash dump) or
writing (sysupgrade).
Device mac addresses:
Stock firmware uses the same MAC address for ethernet (on device label)
and 2.4GHz wireless. The 5GHz wireless address is incremented by one.
This address is stored in the 'info' ('default-mac') partition at an
offset of 8 bytes.
From OEM ifconfig:
eth a4:2b:b0:...:88
ra0 a4:2b:b0:...:88
rai0 a4:2b:b0:...:89
Flashing instructions:
* Enable SSH in the web interface, and SSH into the target device
* run `cliclientd stopcs`, this should return "success"
* upload the factory image via the web interface
Debricking:
U-boot can be interrupted during boot, serial console is 57600 baud, 8n1
This allows installing a sysupgrade image, or fixing the device in
another way.
* Access serial header from the side of the board, close to ETH3,
pin-out is (1:TX, 2:RX, 3:GND, 4:3.3V), with pin 1 closest to ETH3.
* Interrupt bootloader by holding '4' during boot, which drops the
bootloader into its shell
* Change default 'serverip' and 'ipaddr' variables (optional)
* Download initramfs with `tftpboot`, and boot image with `bootm`
# tftpboot 84000000 openwrt-initramfs.bin
# bootm
Revert to stock:
Using the tplink-safeloader utility from the firmware-utils package,
TP-Link's firmware image can be converted to an OpenWrt-compatible
sysupgrade image:
$ ./staging_dir/host/bin/tplink-safeloader -B EAP235-WALL-V1 \
-z EAP235-WALLv1_XXX_up_signed.bin -o eap235-sysupgrade.bin
This can then be flashed using the OpenWrt sysupgrade interface. The
image will appear to be incompatible and must be force flashed, without
keeping the current configuration.
Known issues:
- DFS support is incomplete (known issue with MT7613)
- MT7613 radio may stop responding when idling, reboot required.
This was an issue with the ddc75ff704 version of mt76, but appears to

cmake is a dependency of ccache, which means it is build before ccache
is available and hence must be build with non-ccache CC and CXX. It
currently works, because the cmake build system splits the compiler
variable and treats them as multiple compilers to check.
For "ccache gcc" it first tests for "ccache", which always fails,
because ccache is not a compiler by itself, even if it is available, and
then ends up calling "gcc" alone, effectively never using ccache.
Let's make this explicit by forcing the use of non-ccache CC and CXX.

Because some padding values in the TP-Link safeloader image generation
were hardcoded, different values were sometimes used throughout a
factory image. TP-Link's upgrade images use the same value everywhere,
so let's do the same here.
Although a lot of TP-Link's safeloader images have padded partition
payloads, images for the EAP-series of AC devices don't. This padding is
therefore also made optional.
By replacing the type of the padding value byte with a wider datatype,
new values outside of the previously valid range become available. Use
these new values to denote that padding should not be performed.
Because char might be signed, also replace the char literals by a
numeric literal. Otherwise '\xff' might be sign extended to 0xffff.
This results in factory images differing by 1 byte for:
* C2600
* ARCHER-C5-V2
* ARCHERC9
* TLWA850REV2
* TLWA855REV1
* TL-WPA8630P-V2-EU
* TL-WPA8630P-V2-INT
* TL-WPA8630P-V2.1-EU

* RE355
* RE450
* RE450-V2
* RE450-V3
* RE500-V1
* RE650-V1
The following factory images no longer have padding, shrinking the
factory images by a few bytes for:
* EAP225-OUTDOOR-V1
* EAP225-V3
* EAP225-WALL-V2
* EAP245-V1
* EAP245-V3

TP-Link safeloader firmware images contain a number of (small)
partitions with information about the device. These consist of:
* The data length as a 32-bit integer
* A 32-bit zero padding
* The partition data, with its length set in the first field
The OpenWrt factory image partitions that follow this structure are
soft-version, support-list, and extra-para. Refactor the code to put all
common logic into one allocation call, and let the rest of the data be
filled in by the original functions.
Due to the extra-para changes, this patch results in factory images that
change by 2 bytes (not counting the checksum) for three devices:
* ARCHER-A7-V5
* ARCHER-C7-V4
* ARCHER-C7-V5
These were the devices where the extra-para blob didn't match the common
format. The hardcoded data also didn't correspond to TP-Link's (recent)
upgrade images, which actually matches the meta-partition format.
A padding byte is also added to the extra-para partition for EAP245-V3.

The label MAC address matches the OpenWrt ethernet address.
Installation
------------
Web Interface
-------------
It is possible to upgrade to OpenWrt via the web interface. Simply flash
the -factory.bin from OEM. In contrast to a stock firmware, this will not
overwrite U-Boot.
Recovery
--------
Unfortunately, this devices does not offer a recovery mode or a tftp
installation method. If the web interface upgrade fails, you have to open
your device and attach serial console.
Instructions for serial console and recovery may be checked out in
commit 6d6f36ae78 ("ramips: add support for TP-Link RE200 v2") or on
the device's Wiki page.

Since we have a v2.1 (EU) with different partitioning now, rename
the v2.0 to make the difference visible to the user more directly.
Signed-off-by: Adrian Schmutzler <freifunk@adrianschmutzler.de>
This adds support for the TP-Link TL-WPA8630P (EU) in its v2.1
version. The only unique aspect for the firmware compared to v2
layout is the partition layout.
Note that while the EU version has different partitioning for
v2.0 and v2.1, the v2.1 (AU) is supported by the v2-int image.
If you plan to use this device, make sure you have a look at
the Wiki page to check whether the device is supported and
which image needs to be taken.
Specifications
--------------
- QCA9563 750MHz, 2.4GHz WiFi
- QCA9888 5GHz WiFi
- 8MiB SPI Flash
- 128MiB RAM
- 3 GBit Ports (QCA8337)
- PLC (QCA7550)
Installation
------------
Installation is possible from the OEM web interface. Make sure to
install the latest OEM firmware first, so that the PLC firmware is
at the latest version. However, please also check the Wiki page
for hints according to altered partitioning between OEM firmware
revisions.
Notes
-----
The OEM firmware has 0x620000 to 0x680000 unassigned, so we leave
this empty as well. It is complicated enough already ...

TP-Link EAP245 v3 is an AC1750 (802.11ac Wave-2) ceiling mount access
point. UART access (for debricking) requires non-trivial soldering.
Specifications:
* SoC: QCA9563 (CPU/DDR/AHB @ 775/650/258 MHz)
* RAM: 128MiB
* Flash: 16MiB SPI-NOR
* Wireless 2.4GHz (SoC): b/g/n 3x3

Flashing instructions:
All recent firmware versions (latest is 2.20.0), can disable firmware
signature verification and use a padded firmware file to flash OpenWrt:
* ssh into target device and run `cliclientd stopcs`
* upload factory image via web interface
The stopcs-method is supported from firmware version 2.3.0. Earlier
versions need to be upgraded to a newer stock version before flashing
OpenWrt.
Factory images for these devices are RSA signed by TP-Link. While the
signature verification can be disabled, the factory image still needs to
have a (fake) 1024 bit signature added to pass file checks.
Debricking instructions:
You can recover using u-boot via the serial port:
* Serial port is available from J3 (1:TX, 2:RX, 3:GND, 4:3.3V)
* Bridge R237 to connect RX, located next to J3
* Bridge R225 to connect TX, located inside can on back-side of board
* Serial port is 115200 baud, 8n1, interrupt u-boot by holding ctrl+B
* Upload initramfs with tftp and upgrade via OpenWrt
Device mac addresses:
Stock firmware has the same mac address for 2.4GHz wireless and
ethernet, 5GHz is incremented by one. The base mac address is stored in
the 'default-mac' partition (offset 0x90000) at an offset of 8 bytes.
ART blobs contain no mac addresses.

TP-Link has introduced a compatibility level to prevent certain
downgrades. This information is stored in the soft-version partition,
changing the data length from 0xc to 0x10.
The compatibility level doesn't change frequently. For example, it has
the following values for the EAP245v3 (released 2018-Q4):
* FW v2.2.0 (2019-05-30): compat_level=0
* FW v2.3.0 (2019-07-31): compat_level=0
* FW v2.3.1 (2019-10-29): compat_level=1
* FW v2.20.0 (2020-04-23): compat_level=1
Empty flash values (0xffffffff) are interpreted as compat_level=0.
If a firmware upgrade file has a soft-version block without
compatibility level (data length < 0x10), this is also interpreted as
compat_level=0.
By including a high enough compatibility level in factory images, stock
firmware can be convinced to accept the image. A compatibility level
aware firmware will keep the original value.
Example upgrade log of TP-Link EAP245v3 FWv2.3.0 to FWv2.20.0:

Other firmware upgrades have been observed to modify the compabitility
stored level (e.g. TP-Link EAP225-Outdoor FWv1.4.1 to FWv1.7.0).
Therefore, it seems to be the safest option to set the OpenWrt
compatibility level to the highest known value instead of the highest
possible value (0xfffffffe), to ensure users do not get unexpectedly
refused firmware upgrades when using a device reverted back to stock.
To remain compatible with existing devices and not produce different
images, the image builder doesn't store a compatibility level if it is
zero.

The soft-version partition actually contains a header and trailing data:
* header: {data length, [zero]}
* data: {version, bcd encoded date, revision}
The data length is currently treated as a magic number, but should
contain the length of the partition data.
This header is also present the following partitions (non-exhaustive):
* string-based soft-version
* support-list

Some environments, e.g. first gen WSL, do not support SysV IPC.
Enforce the use of TCP transport instead which should be universally
available.

This target is still on kernel 4.14, and recent attempts to move it to
kernel 5.4 have not led to success. The device tester reported that it
wouldn't boot with the following messages:
From sysupgrade:
Press any key within 4 seconds to enter setup....
loading kernel from nand... OK
setting up elf image... OK
jumping to kernel code
At this point the system hangs.
From CompactFlash:
Press any key within 4 seconds to enter setup....
Booting CF
Loading kernel... done
setting up elf image... kernel out of range kernel loading failed
The tester reported that the same was observed with current master
(kernel 4.14) as well. This looks like some kernel size restriction.
Since this target is quite old and only supports one device, and since
nobody else seemed interested in working on this for quite some time,
I decided to not put further work into analyzing the problem and drop
this together with the other 4.14-only targets.
