The MikroTik wAP ac (RBwAPG-5HacD2HnD) is a dual-band dual-radio
802.11ac wireless access point with integrated antenna and two Ethernet
ports in a weatherproof enclosure. See
https://mikrotik.com/product/wap_ac for more information.
Important: this is the new ipq40xx-based wAP ac, not the older
ath79-based wAP ac (RBwAPG-5HacT2HnD), already supported in OpenWrt.
Specifications:
- SoC: Qualcomm Atheros IPQ4018
- CPU: 4x ARM Cortex A7
- RAM: 128MB
- Storage: 16MB NOR flash
- Wireless
- 2.4GHz: Built-in IPQ4018 (SoC) 802.11b/g/n 2x2:2, 2.5 dBi antennae
- 5GHz: Built-in IPQ4018 (SoC) 802.11a/n/ac 2x2:2, 2.5 dBi antennae
- Ethernet: Built-in IPQ4018 (SoC, QCA8075), 2x 1000/100/10Mb/s ports,
one with 802.3af/at PoE in
Installation:
Boot the initramfs image via TFTP, then flash the sysupgrade image using
sysupgrade. Details at https://openwrt.org/toh/mikrotik/common.
Notes:
This preserves the MAC addresses of the physical Ethernet ports:
- eth0 corresponds to the physical port labeled ETH1 and has the base
MAC address. This port can be used to power the device.
- eth1 corresponds to the physical port labeled ETH2 and has a MAC
address one greater than the base.
MAC addresses are set from /lib/preinit/05_set_iface_mac_ipq40xx.sh
rather than /etc/board.d/02_network so that they are in effect for
preinit. This should likely be done for other MikroTik devices and
possibly other non-MikroTik devices as well.
As this device has 2 physical ports, they are each connected to their
respective PHYs, allowing the link status to be visible to software.
Since they are not marked on the case with any role (such as LAN or
WAN), both are bridged to the lan network by default, although this can
easily be changed if needed.

Notes
-----
There does not appear to be a way to trigger TFTP recovery without entering
U-Boot. The device must be opened to access the serial console in order to
first flash OpenWrt onto a device from factory.
The device has automatic recovery backed by a second set of partitions on
the larger of the two SPI flash ICs. Both the primary and secondary must
be flashed to prevent accidental rollback to "factory" after 3 failed boot
attempts.
Serial console
--------------
A serial console is available on the following pins of the populated J2
connector on the device mainboard (115200 8n1).
(<-- Top of PCB / Device)

Installation instructions
-------------------------
1. Setup TFTP server with server IP set to 192.168.1.236.
2. Copy compiled `...squashfs-factory.bin` to `nodes-jr.img` in tftp root.
3. Connect to console using pinout detailed in the serial console section.
4. Power on device and press enter when prompted to drop into U-Boot.
5. Flash first partition device via `run flashimg`.
6. Once complete, reset device and allow to power up completely.
7. Once comfortable with device upgrade reboot and drop back into U-Boot.
8. Flash the second partition (recovery) via `run flashimg2`.
Revert to "factory"

Avoid shipping ath10k board file in Mikrotik initram images
Most will only ever need to use these initram images once—to initially
load OpenWrt, but fix these images for more consistent Wi-Fi performance
between the initram and installed squashfs images.
OpenWrt BUILDBOT config ignores -cut packages in the initram images build.
This results in BUILDBOT initram images including the linux-firmware
qca4019 board-2.bin, and (initram image booted) Mikrotik devices loading
a generic BDF, rather than the intended BDF data loaded
from NOR as an api 1 board_file.

Google WiFi (codename: Gale) is an IPQ4019-based AP, with 2 Ethernet
ports, 2x2 2.4+5GHz WiFi, 512 MB RAM, 4 GB eMMC, and a USB type C port.
In its stock configuration, it runs a Chromium OS-based system, but you
wouldn't know it, since you can only manage it via a "cloud" +
mobile-app system.
The "v2" label is coded into the bootloader, which prefers the
"google,gale-v2" compatible string. I believe "v1" must have been
pre-release hardware.
Note: this is *not* the Google Nest WiFi, released in 2019.
I include "factory.bin" support, where we generate a GPT-based disk
image with 2 partitions -- a kernel partition (using the custom "Chrome
OS kernel" GUID type) and a root filesystem partition. See below for
flashing instructions.
Sysupgrade is supported via recent emmc_do_upgrade() helper.
This is a subtarget because it enables different features
(FEATURES=boot-part rootfs-part) whose configurations don't make sense
in the "generic" target, and because it builds in a few USB drivers,
which are necessary for installation (installation is performed by
booting from USB storage, and so these drivers cannot be built as
modules, since we need to load modules from USB storage).
Flashing instructions
=====================
Documented here:
https://openwrt.org/inbox/toh/google/google_wifi
Note this requires booting from USB storage.
Features
========
I've tested:
* Ethernet, both WAN and LAN ports
* eMMC
* USB-C (hub, power-delivery, peripherals)
* LED0 (R/G/B)
* WiFi (limited testing)
* SPI flash
* Serial console: once in developer mode, console can be accessed via
the USB-C port with SuzyQable, or other similar "Closed Case
Debugging" tools:
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/third_party/hdctools/+/master/docs/ccd.md#suzyq-suzyqable
* Sysupgrade
Not tested:
* TPM
Known not working:
* Reboot: this requires some additional TrustZone / SCM
configuration to disable Qualcomm's SDI. I have a proposal upstream,
and based on IRC chats, this might be acceptable with additional DT
logic:
[RFC PATCH] firmware: qcom_scm: disable SDI at boot
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-msm/20200721080054.2803881-1-computersforpeace@gmail.com/
* SMP: enabling secondary CPUs doesn't currently work using the stock
bootloader, as the qcom_scm driver assumes newer features than this
TrustZone firmware has. I posted notes here:
[RFC] qcom_scm: IPQ4019 firmware does not support atomic API?
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-msm/20200913201608.GA3162100@bDebian/
* There's a single external button, and a few useful internal GPIO
switches. I haven't hooked them up.
The first two are fixed with subsequent commits.
Additional notes
================
Much of the DTS is pulled from the Chrome OS kernel 3.18 branch, which
the manufacturer image uses.
Note: the manufacturer bootloader knows how to patch in calibration data
via the wifi{0,1} aliases in the DTB, so while these properties aren't
present in the DTS, they are available at runtime:
# ls -l
/sys/firmware/devicetree/base/soc/wifi@a*/qcom,ath10k-pre-calibration-data
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 12064 Jul 15 19:11 /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/soc/wifi@a000000/qcom,ath10k-pre-calibration-data
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 12064 Jul 15 19:11 /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/soc/wifi@a800000/qcom,ath10k-pre-calibration-data

See firmware-utils.git commits [1], which implemented the cros-vbutil
verified-boot payload-packing tool, and extended ptgen for the CrOS
kernel partition type. With these, it's now possible to package kernel +
rootfs to make disk images that can boot a Chrome OS-based system (e.g.,
Chromebooks, or even a few AP models).
Regarding PARTUUID= changes: Chromium bootloaders work well with a
partition number offset (i.e., relative to the kernel partition), so
we'll be using a slightly different root UUID line.
NB: I've made this support specific to ip40xx for now, because I only
plan to support an IPQ4019-based AP that uses a Chromium-based
bootloader, but this image format can be used for essentially any
Chromebook, as well as the Google OnHub, a prior Chromium-based AP using
an IPQ8064 chipset.
