Installation from Serial Console
------------
1. Connect to the serial console. Power up the device and interrupt
autoboot when prompted
2. Connect a TFTP server reachable at 192.168.1.0/24
(e.g. 192.168.1.66) to the ethernet port. Serve the OpenWrt
initramfs image as "openwrt.bin"
3. To test OpenWrt only, go to step 4 and never execute step 5;
To install, auto_recovery should be disabled first, and boot_part
should be set to 1 if its current value is not.
ath> setenv auto_recovery no
ath> setenv boot_part 1
ath> saveenv
4. Boot the initramfs image using U-Boot
ath> setenv serverip 192.168.1.66
ath> tftpboot 0x84000000 openwrt.bin
ath> bootm
5. Copy the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to the device using scp and
install it like a normal upgrade (with no need to keeping config
since no config from "previous OpenWRT installation" could be kept
at all)
# sysupgrade -n /path/to/openwrt/sysupgrade.bin
Note: Like many other routers produced by Linksys, it has a dual
firmware flash layout, but because I do not know how to handle
it, I decide to disable it for more usable space. (That is why
the "auto_recovery" above should be disabled before installing
OpenWRT.) If someone is interested in generating factory
firmware image capable to flash from stock firmware, as well as
restoring the dual firmware layout, commented-out layout for the
original secondary partitions left in the device tree may be a
useful hint.
Installation from Web Interface
------------
1. Login to the router via its web interface (default password: admin)
2. Find the firmware update interface under "Connectivity/Basic"
3. Choose the OpenWrt factory image and click "Start"
4. If the router still boots into the stock firmware, it means that
the OpenWrt factory image has been installed to the secondary
partitions and failed to boot (since OpenWrt on EA4500 v3 does not
support dual boot yet), and the router switched back to the stock
firmware on the primary partitions. You have to install a stock
firmware (e.g. 3.1.6.172023, downloadable from
https://www.linksys.com/support-article?articleNum=148385 ) first
(to the secondary partitions) , and after that, install OpenWrt
factory image (to the primary partitions). After successful
installation of OpenWrt, auto_recovery will be automatically
disabled and router will only boot from the primary partitions.

Flash instructions:
1. Gain ssh and serial port access, see the link below:

nvram set boot_wait=on
nvram set flag_boot_rootfs=0
nvram set flag_boot_success=1
nvram set flag_last_success=1
nvram set flag_try_sys1_failed=8

nvram commit
3. Set a static ip on the ethernet interface of your computer
(e.g. default: ip 192.168.31.100, gateway 192.168.31.1)
4. Download the initramfs image, rename it to initramfs.bin,
and host it with the tftp server.
5. Interrupt U-Boot and run these commands:
setenv mtdparts nmbm0:1024k(bl2),256k(Nvram),256k(Bdata),2048k(factory),2048k(fip),256k(crash),256k(crash_log),112640k(ubi)
saveenv
tftpboot initramfs.bin
bootm
6. After openwrt boots up, use scp or luci web
to upload sysupgrade.bin to upgrade.
Revert to stock firmware:
Restore mtdparts back to default, then use the
vendor's recovery tool (Windows only).

When firmware images only contained compressed kernels and squashfs roots,
uncompressed tar files were a good option. We are now using UBIFS images,
both raw and tarred, as well as ubinized (full UBI partition) images, all
of which benefit greatly from compression.
For example, a raw ubinized backup taken from a running Askey RT4230W REV6
(such full backups can be restored via the LUCI's sysupgrade UI) is over
400 MB, but compresses to less than 10 MB.
This commit adds support for gzipped versions of all file types already
accepted by the nand sysupgrade mechanism, be them raw or tarred.

It has been reported that ubinized nand sysupgrade fails under certain
circumstances, being unable to detach the existing ubi partition due to
volumes within the partition being mounted.
This is an attempt to solve such issues by unmounting and removing
ubiblock devices and unmounting ubi volumes within the target partition
prior to detaching and formatting it.

In rtl83xx_set_features we set bit 3 to enable, and bit 4 to disable
checksuming. Looking at rtl93xx_set_features we however see that for
both enable and disable the same bit is used (bit 4). This can't be
right, especially as bit 4 for rtl83xx seems to be Collision threshold
occupying 2 bits. Change this to make this more logical.

Linksys EA8500 is currently broken after the kernel 5.15 bump. Disable
compiling it by default from buildbot to prevent brick from the user.
Don't mark it as BROKEN to permit user to compile images and permit devs
to bisect the problem with the users.
The current problem with the device is that the switch is not detected
and we can't comunicate with it via MDIO.

L2 learning on the CPU port is currently not consistently configured and
relies on the default configuration of the device. On RTL83xx, it is
disabled for packets transmitted with a TX header, as hardware learning
corrupts the forwarding table otherwise. As a result, unneeded flooding
of traffic for the CPU port can already happen on some devices now. It
is also likely that similar issues exist on RTL93xx, which doesn't have
a field to disable learning in the TX header.
To address this, disable hardware learning for the CPU port globally on
all devices. Instead, enable assisted learning to let DSA write FDB
entries to the switch.
For now, this does not sync local/bridge entries to the switch. However,
support for that was added in Linux 5.14, so the next switch to a newer
kernel version is going to fix this.

Initialize the data structure using memset to avoid the possibility of
writing garbage values to the hardware.
Always set a valid entry type, which should fix writing unicast entries
on RTL930x.
For unicast entries, set the is_static flag to prevent the switch from
aging them out.
Also set the rvid field for unicast entries. This is not strictly
necessary, as the switch fills it in automatically from a non-zero vid.
However, this makes the code consistent with multicast entry setup.
While at it, reorder the statements and fix some style issues (double
space, comma instead of semicolon at end of statement). Also remove the
unneeded priv parameter and debug print for the multicast entry setup
function.

Zyxel NGB6817 is the only router that use mmc for rootfs. Upstream
kernel dtsi have mmc-ddr-1_8v enabled for sddc1. This is wrong as mmc on
ipq806x is supplied by a fixed 3.3v regulator and can't operate at 1.8v.
This cause the sddc1 to malfunction and cause kernel panic.
In old 5.15 version this was disabled but it was put in addition to many
other changes so it was dropped silently. Restore this patch to fix
working condition of such router.
