The dual-boot partition layout for the Zyxel GS1900 switches results in
6.9MB for both kernel and rootfs. Depending on the package selection,
this may already leave no space for the user overlay.
Merge the two firmware partitions, effectively dropping dual boot
support with OpenWrt. This results in a firmware partition of 13.9MB,
which should leave some room for the future.
To maintain install capabilites on new devices, an image is required
that still fits inside the original partition. The initramfs is used as
factory install image, so ensure this meets the old size constraints.
The factory image can be flashed via the same procedure as vendor images
when reverting to stock, can be installed from stock, or can be launched
via tftpboot.

General hardware info:
----------------------
D-Link DGS-1210-28P rev. F1 is a switch with 24 ethernet ports and 4
combo ports, all ports Gbit capable. It is based on a RTL8382 SoC
@500MHz, DRAM 128MB and 32MB flash. 24 ethernet ports are 802.3af/at PoE
capable with a total PoE power budget of 193W.
Power over Ethernet:
--------------------
The PSE hardware consists of three BCM59121 PSE chips, serving 8 ports
each. They are controlled by a Nuvoton MCU. In order to enable PoE, the
realtek-poe package is required. It is installed by default, but
currently it requires the manual editing of /etc/config/poe. Keep in
mind that the port number assignment does not match on this switch,
alway 8 ports are in reversed order: 8-1, 16-9 and 24-17.
LEDs and Buttons:
-----------------
On stock firmware, the mode button is supposed to switch the LED
indicators of all port LEDs between Link Activity and PoE status. The
currently selected mode is visualized using the respective LEDs. PoE Max
indicates that the maximum PoE budget has been reached. Since there is
currently no support for this behavior, these LEDs and the mode button
can be used independently.
Serial connection:
------------------
The UART for the SoC (115200 8N1) is available via unpopulated standard
0.1" pin header marked J6. Pin1 is marked with arrow and square.
Pin 1: Vcc 3.3V
Pin 2: Tx
Pin 3: Rx
Pin 4: Gnd
OEM installation from Web Interface:
------------------------------------
1. Make sure you are booting using OEM in image 2 slot. If not,
switch to
image2 using the menus
System > Firmware Information > Boot from image2
Tools > reboot
2. Upload image in vendor firmware via Tools > Backup / Upgrade
Firmware > image1
3. Toggle startup image via System > Firmware Information > Boot
from
image1
4. Tools > reboot
Other installation methods not tested, but since the device shares the
board with the DGS-1210-28, the following should work:
Boot initramfs image from U-Boot:
---------------------------------
1. Press Escape key during `Hit Esc key to stop autoboot` prompt
2. Press CTRL+C keys to get into real U-Boot prompt
3. Init network with `rtk network on` command
4. Load image with `tftpboot 0x8f000000
openwrt-rtl838x-generic-d-link_dgs-1210-28p-f-initramfs-kernel.bin`
command
5. Boot the image with `bootm` command

The DGS-1210-28MP has a LM63 fan controller connected via i2c of the
RTL8231. The clock line is always low if the property
i2c-gpio,scl-open-drain is not set; with this property, the GPIO pin is
force-drive and the clock works as expected.
The LM63 is not configured by U-Boot, thus only manual fan control is
possible by settings pwm1_enable to "1" and writing the desired values to
pwm1.
The OEM firmware drives the fan from user mode and sets it up like this:
// PWM LUT/value r/w, PWM Clock = 1.4kHz
0x4a 0x28
// Tachometer spinup disabled, spin-up cycles bypassed
0x4b 0x00
// PWM Frequency = default
0x4d 0x17
// PWM Value (28)
0x4c 0x1c
// If > 0 C, use
0x50 0x00
// PWM = 28
0x51 0x1c
// If > 51 C, use
0x52 0x33
// PWM = 44
0x53 0x2e
// Set hysteresis to 100 = default
0x4f 0x03
// Turn on automatic mode and w/p the LUT values
0x4a 0x08
A thread in the OEM firmware polls the ALERT status register for fan
failures.
Unfortunately, the lm63 kernel driver does not perform any initialization
of the chip and it does not support changing some config registers (like
PWM frequency or LUT). Hence, we are stuck with the defaults and need to do
fan control in software.

Recent OEM firmware versions test the version number embedded in the uimage
"name" header field. The exact restricton is unknown, but "7.0.8.4" seems
to be the lowest number accepted on a GS110TPPv1 which already has that
version or higher.
A "9.9.9.9" version is accepted as valid by the GS110TPPv1 OEM firmware,
and considered both unique enough to identify an OpenWrt image and
moderately future proof against OEM version bumps.
This change is also boot tested on a GS108Tv3 with
"BOOT Loader Version 1.0.0.2 (2018-08-31 17:05:26 UTC)"
to verify that it doesn't break boot on older hardware.

The GS110TUP v1 is a managed switch similar to the GS110TPP v1, but with
port 10 as SFP instead of RJ-45 and a total budget of 240 watts. Ports
1-4 support 60-watt 802.3bt PoE and ports 5-8 support 30-watt 802.3at.
The flash layout of the two switches are identical, and the U-Boot
configurations are the same except for having a different magic number,
so installation can be done via the same U-Boot method.
The following command will be needed to enable the port LEDs as per
https://forum.openwrt.org/t/72510/51 :
fw_setenv bootcmd "rtk network on; boota"
Additionally, port 9 (1000base-T from a separate QSGMII PHY) does not
function without this. Port 10 was not tested as no SFP module was

Not supported at this time.
Install via serial console/tftp:
--------------------------------
The U-Boot firmware drops to a TP-Link specific "BOOTUTIL" shell at
38400 baud. There is no known way to exit out of this shell, and no
way to do anything useful.
Ideally, one would trick the bootloader into flashing the sysupgrade
image first. However, if the image exceeds 6MiB in size, it will not
work. To install OpenWRT:
Prepare a tftp server with:
1. server address: 192.168.0.146
2. the image as: "uImage.img"
Power on device, and stop boot by pressing any key.
Once the shell is active:
1. Ground out the CLK (pin 16) of the ROM (U6)
2. Select option "3. Start"
3. Bootloader notes that "The kernel has been damaged!"
4. Release CLK as soon as bootloader thinks image is corrupted.
5. Bootloader enters automatic recovery -- details printed on console
6. Watch as the bootloader flashes and boots OpenWRT.
Blind install via tftp:
-----------------------
This method works when it's not feasible to install a serial header.
Prepare a tftp server with:
1. server address: 192.168.0.146
2. the image as: "uImage.img"
3. Watch network traffic (tcpdump or wireshark works)
4. Power on the device.
5. Wait 1-2 seconds then ground out the CLK (pin 16) of the ROM (U6)
6. When 192.168.0.30 makes tftp requests, release pin 16
7. Wait 2-3 minutes for device to auto-flash and boot OpenWRT

Booting initramfs image:
------------------------
- Prepare a FTP or TFTP server serving the OpenWrt initramfs image and
connect the server to a switch port.
- Connect to the console port of the device and enter the extended
boot menu by typing Ctrl+B when prompted.
- Choose the menu option "<3> Enter Ethernet SubMenu".
- Set network parameters via the option "<5> Modify Ethernet Parameter".
Enter the FTP/TFTP filename as "Load File Name" ("Target File Name"
can be left blank, it is not required for booting from RAM). Note that
the configuration is saved on flash, so it only needs to be done once.
- Select "<1> Download Application Program To SDRAM And Run".
Initial installation:
---------------------
- Boot an initramfs image as described above, then use sysupgrade to
install OpenWrt permanently. After initial installation, the
bootloader needs to be configured to load the correct image file
- Enter the extended boot menu again and choose "<4> File Control",
then select "<2> Set Application File type".
- Enter the number of the file "openwrt-kernel.bin" (should be 1), and
use the option "<1> +Main" to select it as boot image.
- Choose "<0> Exit To Main Menu" and then "<1> Boot System".
NOTE: The bootloader on these devices can only boot from the VFS
filesystem which normally spans most of the flash. With OpenWrt, only
the first part of the firmware partition contains a valid filesystem,
the rest is used for rootfs. As the bootloader does not know about this,
you must not do any file operations in the bootloader, as this may
corrupt the OpenWrt installation (selecting the boot image is an
exception, as it only stores a flag in the bootloader data, but doesn't
write to the filesystem).

Installation
------------
You can install Openwrt using one of the following methods.
Warning: flashing OpenWrt will delete your current configuration.
Warning 2: if the -factory.bix file is not available anymore, you must
follow Method 2.
Method 1:
Check the firmware version currently running on your switch. If you are
running FW V1.0.1.10 or greater, you have to download the firmware
V1.0.1.8 from Netgear website and then flash this version. When the
switch restarts, it should be on version V1.0.1.8. Now you can get the
OpenWrt -factory.bix file and then flash it using the OEM web interface.
Method 2 (requires the UART connection):
Boot the -initramfs-kernel.bin image from U-Boot with these commands:
rtk network on;
tftpboot 0x8f000000 openwrt-realtek-rtl839x-netgear_gs750e-initramfs-kernel.bin;
bootm;
And then flash the -sysupgrade.bin file from OpenWrt.
Revert to stock
---------------
Get the stock firmware from the Netgear website and flash it using the
OpenWrt web interface. Remember to not keep the current configuration
and check the "Force upgrade" checkbox
Once reverted to stock the firmware could complain in the UART console
about mtdblock3 and/or mtdblock4 not being mounted correctly but it
seems to work anyway without any problems. Sample error:
mount: Mounting /dev/mtdblock4 on /mntlog failed: Input/output error
If you want to get rid of these error messages you can boot the
-initramfs-kernel.bin image from U-Boot with these commands:
rtk network on;
tftpboot 0x8f000000 openwrt-realtek-rtl839x-netgear_gs750e-initramfs-kernel.bin;
bootm;
And then erase the corresponding partitions using the command:
For mtdblock3:
mtd erase jffs2_cfg
For mtdblock4:
mtd erase jffs2_log
Now you can reboot the switch and the errors should be gone

While cleaning up the makefiles for the realtek target, the order of the
default image generating commands was accidentally changed. This caused
the image signature to end up somewhere in the middle, misaligning the
rootfs. As a result, sysupgrade couldn't verify upgrade images anymore,
and devices end up in a boot loop due to the unaligned (and not found)
rootfs.

General hardware info:
----------------------
D-Link DGS-1210-28MP rev. F1 is a switch with 24 ethernet ports and 4
combo ports, all ports Gbit capable. It is based on a RTL8382 SoC @ 500MHz,
DRAM 128MB and 32MB flash. 24 ethernet ports are 802.3af/at PoE capable
with a total PoE power budget of 370W.
Power over Ethernet:
--------------------
The PSE hardware consists of three BCM59121 PSE chips, serving 8 ports
each. They are controlled by a Nuvoton MCU.
In order to enable PoE, the realtek-poe package is required. It is
installed by default, but currently it requires the manual editing of
/etc/config/poe. Keep in mind that the port number assignment does not
match on this switch, alway 8 ports are in reversed order: 8-1, 16-9 and
24-17.
LEDs and Buttons:
-----------------
On stock firmware, the mode button is supposed to switch the LED indicators
of all port LEDs between Link Activity and PoE status. The currently
selected mode is visualized using the respective LEDs. PoE Max indicates
that the maximum PoE budget has been reached.
Since there is currently no support for this behavior, these LEDs and
the mode button can be used independently.
Serial connection:
------------------
The UART for the SoC (115200 8N1) is available via unpopulated standard
0.1" pin header marked J6. Pin1 is marked with arrow and square.
Pin 1: Vcc 3.3V
Pin 2: Tx
Pin 3: Rx
Pin 4: Gnd
OEM installation from Web Interface:
------------------------------------
1. Make sure you are booting using OEM in image 2 slot. If not, switch to
image2 using the menus
System > Firmware Information > Boot from image2
Tools > reboot
2. Upload image in vendor firmware via Tools > Backup / Upgrade
Firmware > image1
3. Toogle startup image via System > Firmware Information > Boot from
image1
4. Tools > reboot
Other installation methods not tested, but since the device shares the
board with the DGS-1210-28, the following should work:
Boot initramfs image from U-Boot:
---------------------------------
1. Press Escape key during `Hit Esc key to stop autoboot` prompt
2. Press CTRL+C keys to get into real U-Boot prompt
3. Init network with `rtk network on` command
4. Load image with `tftpboot 0x8f000000
openwrt-rtl838x-generic-d-link_dgs-1210-28mp-f-initramfs-kernel.bin`

Hardware specification
----------------------
* RTL8393M SoC, 1 MIPS 34Kc core @ 700MHz
* 128MB DRAM
* 32MB NOR Flash
* 48 x 10/100/1000BASE-T ports
- 6 x External PHY with 8 ports (RTL8218D)
* 4 x Gigabit RJ45/SFP Combo ports
- External PHY with 4 SFP ports (RTL8214FC)
* Power LED
* Reset button on front panel
* UART (115200 8N1) via unpopulated standard 0.1" pin header marked J14
The gpio-restart node is not required but it does reset the switch.
TODO: The 4 combo ports attached to the RTL8214FC are not detect
properly. Linux kernel reports 49 and 50 as "External RTL8393 SERDES"
and 51 and 52 as "RTL8218B (external)". Those ports only work if
u-boot initialize it (for example, loading initramfs image using one
of those ports). A patch to PHY detection is needed for full support.
The firmware recovery using U-Boot is broken for all DGS-1210 tested
devices as pressing RESET does not trigger it (only if pressed from a
running stock image)

Add support for the TP-Link SG2210P switch. This is an RTL8380 based
switch with eight RJ-45 ports with 802.3af PoE, and two SFP ports.
This device shares the same board with the SG2008P and SG2008. To
model this, declare all the capabilities in the sg2xxx dtsi, and
disable unpopulated on the lower end models.
Specifications:
---------------
- SoC: Realtek RTL8380M
- Flash: 32 MiB SPI flash (Vendor varies)
- RAM: 256 MiB (Vendor varies)
- Ethernet: 8x 10/100/1000 Mbps with PoE (all ports)
2x SFP ports
- Buttons: 1x "Reset" button on front panel
- Power: 53.5V DC barrel jack
- UART: 1x serial header, unpopulated
- PoE: 2x TI TPS23861 I2C PoE controller
Works:
------
- (8) RJ-45 ethernet ports
- (2) SFP ports (with caveats)
- Switch functions
- System LED
Not yet enabled:
----------------
- Power-over-Ethernet (driver works, but doesn't enable "auto" mode)
- PoE LEDs
Enabling SFP ports:
-------------------
The SFP port control lines are hardwired, except for tx-disable. These
lines are controller by the RTL8231 in shift register mode. There is
no driver support for this yet.
However, to enable the lasers on SFP1 and SFP2 respectively:
echo 0x0510ff00 > /sys/kernel/debug/rtl838x/led/led_p_en_ctrl
echo 0x140 > /sys/kernel/debug/rtl838x/led/led_sw_p_ctrl.26
echo 0x140 > /sys/kernel/debug/rtl838x/led/led_sw_p_ctrl.24
Install via serial console/tftp:
--------------------------------
The footprints R27 (0201) and R28 (0402) are not populated. To enable
serial console, 50 ohm resistors should be soldered -- any value from
0 ohm to 50 ohm will work. R27 can be replaced by a solder bridge.
The u-boot firmware drops to a TP-Link specific "BOOTUTIL" shell at
38400 baud. There is no known way to exit out of this shell, and no
way to do anything useful.
Ideally, one would trick the bootloader into flashing the sysupgrade
image first. However, if the image exceeds 6MiB in size, it will not
work. The sysupgrade image can also be flashed. To install OpenWrt:
Prepare a tftp server with:
1. server address: 192.168.0.146
2. the image as: "uImage.img"
Power on device, and stop boot by pressing any key.
Once the shell is active:
1. Ground out the CLK (pin 16) of the ROM (U7)
2. Select option "3. Start"
3. Bootloader notes that "The kernel has been damaged!"
4. Release CLK as sson as bootloader thinks image is corrupted.
5. Bootloader enters automatic recovery -- details printed on console
6. Watch as the bootloader flashes and boots OpenWrt.

About the realtek-poe package
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The realtek-poe package is installed but there isn't any automatic PoE config
setting at this time so for now the PoE config must be edited manually.
Original OEM hardware/firmware data at first installation
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It has been installed, developed, and tested on a device with these OEM
hardware and firmware versions.
- U-boot: 2011.12.(2.1.5.67086)-Candidate1 (Jun 22 2020 - 15:03:58)
- Boot version: 1.01.001
- Firmware version: 6.20.007
- Hardware version: F1
Things to be done when support are developed
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- realtek-poe has been included in OpenWrt but the automatic config handling
has not been solved yet so in the future there will probably be some minor
updates for this device to handle the poe config.
- LED link_act and poe are per function supposed to be connected to the PoE
system.
But some software development is also needed to make this LED work and
shift the LED array between act and poe indication and to shift the mode
lights with mode key.
- LED poe_max should probably be used as straight forward error output from
the realtek-poe package error handling. But no code has been written for
this.
- SFP is currently not hot pluggable. Development is under progress to get
working I2C communication with SFP and have them hot pluggable.
When any device in the dgs-1210 family gets this working, I expect it
should be possible to implement the same solution in this device.

Flash instruction using initramfs image:
1. Prepare the TFTP server with the IP address 192.168.1.111
2. Rename the OpenWrt initramfs image to "0101A8C0.img" and place it to
the TFTP directory
3. Download the official upgrading firmware (ex: pn28480k_v30000.rom)
and place it to the TFTP directory
4. Boot M48eG and interrupt the U-Boot with Ctrl + C keys
5. Execute the following commands and boot with the OpenWrt initramfs
image
rtk network on
tftpboot 0x81000000
bootm
6. Backup mtdblock files to the computer by scp or anything and reboot
7. Interrupt the U-Boot and execute the following commands to re-create
filesystem in the flash
ffsmount c:/
ffsfmt c:/
this step takes a long time, about ~ 4 mins
8. Execute the following commands to put the official images to the
filesystem
updatert <official image>
example:
updatert pn28480k_v30000.rom
this step takes about ~ 40 secs
9. Set the environment variables of the U-Boot by the following commands
setenv loadaddr 0xb4e00000
setenv bootcmd 'sleep 10; bootm;'
saveenv
'sleep 10;' is required as dummy to execute 'bootm' command correctly
10: Download the OpenWrt initramfs image and boot with it
tftpboot 0x81000000 0101A8C0.img
bootm
11: On the initramfs image, download the sysupgrade image and perform
sysupgrade with it
sysupgrade <imagename>
12: Wait ~ 120 seconds to complete flashing
Known Issues:
- 4x SFP ports are provided as combo ports by the RTL8218FB chip, but the
phy driver has no support for it. Currently, only TP ports work by the

- "Switch-M48eG" is a model name, and "PN28480K" is a model number.
Switch-M48eG has an another (old) model number ("PN28480"), it's not a
Realtek based hardware.
- Switch-M48eG has a "POWER" LED (Green), but it's not connected to any
GPIO pin.
- U-Boot checks the runtime images in the flash when booting and fails
to execute "bootcmd" variable if the images are not existing.
- A filesystem is formed in the flash (0x100000-0x1DFFFFF) on the stock
firmware and it includes the stock images, configuration files and
checksum files. It's unknown format, can't be managed on the OpenWrt.
To get the enough space for OpenWrt, move the filesystem to the head
of "fs_reserved" partition by execution of "ffsfmt" and "updatert".
- A GPIO pin on PCA9539 is used for resetting external RTL8218B phys and
RTL8218FB phy.
This should be specified as "reset-gpios" property in MDIO node, but
the current configuration of RTL8218B phy in the driver seems to be
incomplete and RTL8218FB won't be configured on RTL8218D support.
So, ethernet ports on these phys will be broken after hard-resetting.
At the moment, configure this pin as gpio-hog to avoid breaking by
resetting.
- This model has 2x Microchip TCN75A thermal sensors. Linux Kernel
supports TCN75 chip on lm75 driver, but no support for TCN75'A'
variant.
At the moment, use TCN75 support for the chips instead.

Flash instruction using initramfs image:
1. Prepare the TFTP server with the IP address 192.168.1.111
2. Rename the OpenWrt initramfs image to "0101A8C0.img" and place it to
the TFTP directory
3. Download the official upgrading firmware (ex: pn28240k_v30000.rom)
and place it to the TFTP directory
4. Boot M24eG and interrupt the U-Boot with Ctrl + C keys
5. Execute the following commands and boot with the OpenWrt initramfs
image
rtk network on
tftpboot 0x81000000
bootm
6. Backup mtdblock files to the computer by scp or anything and reboot
7. Interrupt the U-Boot and execute the following commands to re-create
filesystem in the flash
ffsmount c:/
ffsfmt c:/
this step takes a long time, about ~ 4 mins
8. Execute the following commands to put the official images to the
filesystem
updatert <official image>
example:
updatert pn28240k_v30000.rom
this step takes about ~ 40 secs
9. Set the environment variables of the U-Boot by the following commands
setenv loadaddr 0xb4e00000
setenv bootcmd bootm
saveenv
10: Download the OpenWrt initramfs image and boot with it
tftpboot 0x81000000 0101A8C0.img
bootm
11: On the initramfs image, download the sysupgrade image and perform
sysupgrade with it
sysupgrade <imagename>
12: Wait ~ 120 seconds to complete flashing
Known Issues:
- 2x SFP ports are provided as combo ports by the RTL8218FB chip, but the
phy driver has no support for it. Currently, only TP ports work by the
RTL8218D support.

Support for HPE 1920 images depends on two non-existent tools (mkh3cimg
and mkh3cvfs) from the in the firmware-utils package. Revert commit
f2f09bc002 ("realtek: add support for HPE 1920 series") until support
for these tools is merged and made available in OpenWrt.
Signed-off-by: Sander Vanheule <sander@svanheule.net>
Hardware information:
---------------------
- HPE 1920-8G:
- RTL8380 SoC
- 8 Gigabit RJ45 ports (built-in RTL8218B)
- 2 SFP ports (built-in SerDes)
- HPE 1920-16G / HPE 1920-24G (same board):
- RTL8382 SoC
- 16/24 Gigabit RJ45 ports (built-in RTL8218B, 1/2 external RTL8218D)
- 4 SFP ports (external RTL8214FC)
- Common:
- RJ45 RS232 port on front panel
- 32 MiB NOR Flash
- 128 MiB DDR3 DRAM
- PT7A7514 watchdog
Booting initramfs image:
------------------------
- Prepare a FTP or TFTP server serving the OpenWrt initramfs image and
connect the server to a switch port.
- Connect to the console port of the device and enter the extended
boot menu by typing Ctrl+B when prompted.
- Choose the menu option "<3> Enter Ethernet SubMenu".
- Set network parameters via the option "<5> Modify Ethernet Parameter".
Enter the FTP/TFTP filename as "Load File Name" ("Target File Name"
can be left blank, it is not required for booting from RAM). Note that
the configuration is saved on flash, so it only needs to be done once.
- Select "<1> Download Application Program To SDRAM And Run".
Initial installation:
---------------------
- Boot an initramfs image as described above, then use sysupgrade to
install OpenWrt permanently. After initial installation, the
bootloader needs to be configured to load the correct image file
- Enter the extended boot menu again and choose "<4> File Control",
then select "<2> Set Application File type".
- Enter the number of the file "openwrt-kernel.bin" (should be 1), and
use the option "<1> +Main" to select it as boot image.
- Choose "<0> Exit To Main Menu" and then "<1> Boot System".
NOTE: The bootloader on these devices can only boot from the VFS
filesystem which normally spans most of the flash. With OpenWrt, only
the first part of the firmware partition contains a valid filesystem,
the rest is used for rootfs. As the bootloader does not know about this,
you must not do any file operations in the bootloader, as this may
corrupt the OpenWrt installation (selecting the boot image is an
exception, as it only stores a flag in the bootloader data, but doesn't
write to the filesystem).

During upload of firmware images the WebUI and CLI patch process
extracts a version information from the uploaded file and stores it
onto the jffs2 partition. To be precise it is written into the
flash.txt or flash2.txt files depending on the selected target image.
This data is not used anywhere else. The current OpenWrt factory
image misses this label. Therefore version information shows only
garbage. Fix this.

Currently we build factory images only for DGS-1210-28 model. Relax
that constraint and take care about all models. Tested on DGS-1210-20
and should work on other models too because of common flash layout.
