This patch adds support for the WNDR4300SW, marketed by California ISP
SureWest (hence the 'SW' suffix). Hardware wise, it's identical to the
WNDR4300 v1.
Specifications:
* SoC: Atheros AR9344
* RAM: 128 MB
* Flash: 128 MB NAND flash
* WiFi: Atheros AR9580 (5 GHz) and AR9344 (2,4 GHz)
* Ethernet: 5x 1000Base-T
* LED: Power, WAN, LAN, WiFi, USB, WPS
* UART: on board, to the right of the RF shield at the top of the board
Installation:
* Flashing through the OEM web interface:
+ Connect your computer to the router with an ethernet cable and browse
to http://192.168.1.1/
+ Log in with the default credentials are admin:password
+ Browse to Advanced > Administration > Firmware Upgrade in the Netgear
interface
+ Upload the Openwrt firmware: openwrt-ath79-nand-netgear_wndr4300sw-squashfs-factory.img
+ Proceed with the firmware installation and give the device a few
minutes to finish and reboot.
* Flashing through TFTP:
+ Configure your wired client with a static IP in the 192.168.1.x range,
e.g. 192.168.1.10 and netmask 255.255.255.0.
+ Power off the router.
+ Press and hold the RESET button (the factory reset button on the bottom
of the device, with the red circle around it) and turn the router on
while keeping the button pressed.
+ The power LED will start flashing orange. You can release the button
once it switches to flashing green.
+ Transfer the image over TFTP:
$ tftp 192.168.1.1 -m binary -c put openwrt-ath79-nand-netgear_wndr4300sw-squashfs-factory.img

Installation
------------
The U-Boot CLI is password protected (using the same credentials as the
OS). Default is admin/new2day.
1. Download the OpenWrt initramfs-image. Place it into a TFTP server
root directory and rename it to 1401A8C0.img. Configure the TFTP
server to listen at 192.168.1.66/24.
2. Connect the TFTP server to the access point.
3. Connect to the serial console of the access point. Attach power and
interrupt the boot procedure when prompted (bootdelay is 1 second).
4. Configure the U-Boot environment for booting OpenWrt from Ram and
flash:
$ setenv boot_openwrt 'setenv bootargs; bootm 0xbf230000'
$ setenv ramboot_openwrt 'setenv serverip 192.168.1.66;
tftpboot 0x85000000; bootm'
$ setenv bootcmd 'run boot_openwrt'
$ saveenv
5. Load OpenWrt into memory:
$ run ramboot_openwrt
Wait for the image to boot.
6. Transfer the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to the device. Write the image
to flash using sysupgrade:
$ sysupgrade -n /path/to/openwrt-sysuograde.bin

Flashing instructions:
Upload the factory image via the vendor firmware upgrade option.
Flash instruction (TFTP):
1. Set PC to fixed ip address 192.168.0.66
2. Download *-factory.bin image and rename it to * (see below)
3. Start a tftp server with the image file in its root directory
4. Turn off the router
5. Press and hold Reset button
6. Turn on router with the reset button pressed and wait ~15 seconds
7. Release the reset button and after a short time
the firmware should be transferred from the tftp server
8. Wait ~30 second to complete recovery.
* The image name for TFTP recovery is wa901ndv4_tp_recovery.bin for
both variants.
In ar71xx, a MAC address with offset 1 was used for ethernet port.
That's probably wrong, but this commit sticks to it until we know

This commit takes advantages of base-files 220 which introduces routines
to perform caldata loading directly via the kernel sysfs loader helper.
This has the benefits of not wasting flash space to store caldata.
Memory footprint is reduced to the bare minimum: for devices that don't
need MAC patching, the caldata is loaded directly, for devices that do
need MAC patching, the caldata is extracted to /tmp, patched and then
loaded.

As evidenced here[1] the device MAC address can be stored at a random
offset in the hard_config partition. Rely on sysfs to update the MAC
address correctly.
To match sticker and vendor OS behavior, WAN MAC is set to the device
base MAC and LAN MAC is incremented from that.
Note: this will trigger a harmless kernel message during boot:
ag71xx 19000000.eth: invalid MAC address, using random address
There is no clean workaround to prevent this message from being emitted.

This board was previously supported in ar71xx as 'RUT9XX'. The
difference between that and the other RUT955 board already supported in
ath79 is that instead of the SPI shift registers driving the LEDs and
digital outputs that model got an I2C GPIO expander instead.
To support LEDs during early boot and interrupt-driven digital inputs,
I2C support as well as support for PCA953x has to be built-in and
cannot be kernel modules, hence select those symbols for ath79/generic.
Specification:
- 550/400/200 MHz (CPU/DDR/AHB)
- 128 MB of RAM (DDR2)
- 16 MB of FLASH (SPI NOR)

- analog 0-24V input (MCP3221)
- various digital inputs and outputs incl. a relay

- 2x miniSIM slot (can be swapped via GPIO)
- 2x RP-SMA/F (Wi-Fi), 3x SMA/F (2x WWAN, GPS)

Between 4.19 and 5.4, mtd parsers have been moved to "parsers"
subdirectory. Based on this, the selection of myloader.o in OpenWrt
was also moved to that subdirectory, while the Kconfig and our local
myloader.c file remained in /drivers/mtd.
This resulted in linking errors like the following (on ath25@5.4):
make[8]: *** No rule to make target 'drivers/mtd/parsers/myloader.o', ...
needed by 'drivers/mtd/parsers/built-in.a'. Stop.
make[7]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:500: drivers/mtd/parsers] Error 2
make[6]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:500: drivers/mtd] Error 2
Since myloader.c is not too big, this patch moves it to the kernel patches,
allowing to adjust the path for kernel 5.4 and keeping Makefiles and
file paths better in sync.
Other patches have been refreshed accordingly.

Flashing instructions:
The U-boot bootloader contains a recovery HTTP server
to upload the firmware. Push the reset button while powering the
device on and keep it pressed for ~10 seconds. The device's LEDs will
blink several times and the recovery page will be at
http://192.168.1.1; use it to upload the sysupgrade image.
Alternatively, the original firmware is based on OpenWrt so a
sysupgrade image can be installed via the stock web GUI. Settings from
the original firmware will be saved and restored on the new one, so a
factory reset will be needed. To do so, once the new firmware is flashed,
enter into failsafe mode by pressing the reset button several times during
the boot process, until it starts flashing. Once in failsafe mode, perform
a factory reset as usual.
LED-Info:
The LEDs on the Comfast stock fw have a very proprietary behaviour,
corresponding to the user selected working mode (AP, ROUTER or REPEATER).
In the first two cases, only blue is used for status and LAN signaling. When
using the latter, blue is always off (except for sysupgrade), either red
signals bad rssi on master-link, or green good. Since the default working
mode of OpenWrt resembles that of a router/AP, the default behavior is
implemented accordingly.
MAC addresses (art partition):
location address (example) use in vendor firmware
0x0 xx:xx:xx:xx:xc:f8 -> eth0
0x6 xx:xx:xx:xx:xc:fa -> wlan5g (+2)
0x1002 xx:xx:xx:xx:xc:f9 -> not used

MAC addresses of the ethernet devices (eth0 & eth1) are randomly set at
boot time by the ag71xx driver, because it is currently not possible to
retrieve MAC addresses in ASCII format within the DTS file.
This commit works around this behaviour by setting the MAC addresses
during the preinit phase.
The same has been implemented recently for the Siemens WS-AP3610 in
d2b8ccb1c0 ("ath79: add support for Siemens WS-AP3610").
MAC assignment in vendor firmware is as follows:
use vendor address OpenWrt
2g wifi0 ethaddr -> wlan1
5g wifi1 ethaddr +1 -> wlan0
lan eth1 ethaddr +2 -> eth0
wan eth0 ethaddr +3 -> eth1
ethaddr is retrieved by $(mtd_get_mac_ascii u-boot-env ethaddr)
Note that both Wifi and ethernet indexing is swapped in OpenWrt
compared to vendor firmware.
