Hardware
--------
SoC: Qualcomm IPQ8065
RAM: 512 MB DDR3
Flash: 256 MB NAND (Macronix MX30UF2G18AC) (split into 2x128MB)
4 MB SPI-NOR (Macronix MX25U3235F)
WLAN: Qualcomm Atheros QCA9984 - 2.4Ghz
Qualcomm Atheros QCA9984 - 5Ghz
ETH: eth0 - POE (100Mbps in U-Boot, 1000Mbps in OpenWrt)
eth1 - (1000Mbps in both)
Auto-negotiation broken on both.
USB: USB 2.0
LED: 5G, 2.4G, ETH1, ETH2, CTRL, PWR (All support green and red)
BTN: Reset
Other: SD card slot (non-functional)
Serial: 115200bps, near the Ethernet transformers, labeled 9X.
Connections from the arrow to the 9X text:
[NC] - [TXD] - [GND] - [RXD] - [NC]
Installation
------------
0. Connect to the device
Plug your computer into LAN2 (1000Mbps connection required).
If you use the LAN1/POE port, set your computer to force a 100Mbps link.
Connect to the device via TTL (Serial) 115200n8.
Locate the header (or solder pads) labeled 9X,
near the Ethernet jacks/transformers.
There should be an arrow on the other side of the header marking.
The connections should go like this:
(from the arrow to the 9X text): NC - TXD - GND - RXD - NC
1. Prepare for installation
While the AP is powering up, interrupt the startup process.
MAKE SURE TO CHECK YOUR CURRENT PARTITION!
If you see: "Current Partition is : partB" or
"Need to switch partition from partA to partB",
you have to force the device into partA mode, before continuing.
This can be done by changing the PKRstCnt to 5 and resetting the device.
setenv PKRstCnt 5
saveenv
reset
After you interrupt the startup process again,
you should see: Need to switch partition from partB to partA
You can now continue to the next step.
If you see: "Current Partition is : partA",
you can continue to the next step.
2. Prevent partition switching.
To prevent the device from switching partitions,
we are going to modify the startup command.
set bootcmd "setenv PKRstCnt 0; saveenv; bootipq"
setenv
3. First boot
Now, we have to boot the OpenWrt intifs.
The easiest way to do this is by using Tiny PXE.
You can also use the normal U-Boot tftp method.
Run "bootp" this will get an IP from the DHCP server
and possibly the firmware image.
If it doesn't download the firmware image, run "tftpboot".
Now run "bootm" to run the image.
You might see:
"ERROR: new format image overwritten - must RESET the board to recover"
this means that the image you are trying to load is too big.
Use a smaller image for the initial boot.
4. Install OpenWrt from initfs
Once you are booted into OpenWrt,
transfer the OpenWrt upgrade image and
use sysupgrade to install OpenWrt to the device.

Don't mark it as BROKEN to permit user to compile images and permit devs

The current problem with the device is that the switch is not detected

IMPORTANT:
This port requires moving the 'fw_env' partition prior to first boot to
consolidate 70% of the usable space in flash into a contiguous partition.
'fw_env' contains factory-programmed MAC addresses, SSIDs, and passwords.
Its contents must be copied to 'rootfs_1' prior to booting via initramfs.
Note that the stock 'fw_env' partition will be wiped during sysupgrade.
A writable 'stock_fw_env' partition pointing to the old, stock location
is included in the port to help rolling back this change if desired.
Installation:
- Requires serial access and a TFTP server.
- Fully boot stock, press ENTER, type in:
mtd erase /dev/mtd21
dd if=/dev/mtd22 bs=128K count=1 | mtd write - /dev/mtd21
umount /config && ubidetach -m 23 && mtd erase /dev/mtd23
- Reboot and interrupt U-Boot by pressing a key, type in:
set mtdids 'nand0=nand0'
set mtdparts 'mtdparts=nand0:155M@0x6500000(mtd_ubi)'
set bootcmd 'ubi part mtd_ubi && ubi read 0x44000000 kernel && bootm'
env save
- Setup TFTP server serving initramfs image as 'recovery.bin', type in:
set ipaddr 192.168.1.1
set serverip 192.168.1.2
tftpboot recovery.bin && bootm
- Use sysupgrade to install squashfs image.

Increase the kernel size from 3 MB to 4 MB for EA8500 and EA7500v1.
* modify the common .dtsi
* modify the kernel size in the image recipes
Define compat-version 2.0 to force factory image usage for sysupgrade.
Add explanation message. Reenable both devices.
As for 4MiB (and not more): Hannu Nyman noted that:
"We have lots of ipq806x devices with 4 MB kernel, so will
need action at that point in future in any case.
(Assuming that the bootloader did not have a 4 MB limit that
has been tested...)"

Increase the available flash memory size in Netgear R7800
by repurposing the unused "netgear" partition that is
located after the firmware partition.
Available flash space for kernel+rootfs+overlay increases
by 68 MB from 32 MB to 100 MB.
In a typical build, overlay space increases from 15 to 85,
increasing the package installation possibilities greatly.
Reverting to the OEM firmware is still possible, as the OEM
firmware contains logic to initialise the "netgear" partition
if its contents do not match expectations. In OEM firmware,
"netgear" contains 6 UBI sub-partitions that are defined in
/etc/netgear.cfg and initialisation is done by /etc/preinit
This is based on fb8a578aa7

The recent device-tree modification that added pre-cal
nvmem-cells pushed the device's kernel+dtb over the
allotted 3072k KERNEL_SIZE.
> WARNING: Image file tplink_vr2600v-uImage is too big: 3147214 > 3145728
There was a previous kernel partition size upgrade:
commit 0c967d92b3 ("ipq806x: increase kernel partition size for the TP-Link Archer VR2600v")
It has been seemingly upgraded from a 2048k KERNEL_SIZE in the past.
The commit talks about using the MTD_SPLIT_TPLINK_FW. But looking at
the image make recipe, there is no code that adds a TPLINK header.
So instead the board will use "denx,umimage". This requires
MTD_SPLIT_UIMAGE_FW, but this is present thanks to some NEC devices.
(Maybe the MTD_CONFIG_ARGS can be removed as well? But it could be
there because of the padding at the beginning. This needs testing.)
