Currently, the MT7530 DSA subdriver configures the MT7530 switch to provide
direct access to switch PHYs, meaning, the switch PHYs listen on the MDIO
bus the switch listens on. The PHY muxing feature makes use of this.
This is problematic as the PHY may be attached before the switch is
initialised, in which case, the PHY will fail to be attached.
Since commit 91374ba537bd ("net: dsa: mt7530: support OF-based registration
of switch MDIO bus") on mainline Linux, we can describe the switch PHYs on
the MDIO bus of the switch on the device tree.
When the PHY is described this way, the switch will be initialised first,
then the switch MDIO bus will be registered. Only after these steps, the
PHY will be attached.
Describe the switch PHYs on mt7621.dtsi and remove defining the switch PHY
on the SoC's mdio bus node. When the PHY muxing is in use, the interrupts
for the muxed PHY won't work, therefore delete the "interrupts" property on
the devices where the PHY muxing feature is in use.

Stock flash layout:
```
GD25Q128C(c8 40180000) (16384 Kbytes)
mtd .name = raspi, .size = 0x01000000 (16M) .erasesize = 0x00010000 (64K)
.numeraseregions = 0
Creating 7 MTD partitions on "raspi":
0x000000000000-0x000001000000 : "ALL"
0x000000000000-0x000000030000 : "Bootloader"
0x000000030000-0x000000040000 : "Config"
0x000000040000-0x000000050000 : "Factory"
0x000000050000-0x000000060000 : "Config2"
0x000000060000-0x000000fb0000 : "Kernel"
0x000000fb0000-0x000001000000 : "Private"
```
The kernel partition will be replaced with the OpenWrt image, the other
partitions are left untouched.
"Config2" seems to be the config storage used by the stock firmware.
"Private" is a 320kB empty JFFS2 partition that comes with the stock
firmware. One can get a larger space for OpenWrt by merging it with
"Kernel".
OpenWrt flash layout:
```
0x000000000000-0x000000030000 : "u-boot"
0x000000030000-0x000000040000 : "u-boot-env"
0x000000040000-0x000000050000 : "factory"
0x000000050000-0x000000060000 : "config2_stock"
0x000000060000-0x000000fb0000 : "firmware"
0x000000fb0000-0x000001000000 : "private_stock"
```
The OpenWrt image must have 96 bytes of padding in the header.
MAC addresses on OEM firmware:
| | location on the flash | notes |
|------ |----------------------- |---------- |
| lan (eth2) | factory + 0xe000 | on label |
| wan (eth3) | factory + 0xe006 | |
| 2.4g (rax0) | not on flash | lan + 1 |
| 5g (ra0) | not on flash | lan + 2 |
Mac addresses of the 2.4g and 5g interface are stored as ASCII strings in
the u-boot-env partition, but they are not used. OpenWrt calculates
Wifi Mac addresses based on the LAN Mac.
Flash and test instructions:
Flash the encrypted image (available in the OpenWrt forum) through the
stock D-Dink web interface.
1. Open the case, and solder the 4-pin header near the WAN port.
2. Connect it to a USB-UART TTL (3.3V) adapter, no need to connect VCC.
3. Open a terminal emulator (e.g. `screen /dev/ttyUSB0` on linux) with
the settings mentioned above.
4. Setup a TFTP server on your PC that can serve
`xxx-ramips-mt7621-dlink_dir-853-a1-initramfs-kernel.bin`.
5. Connect any LAN port to your PC and set a static IPv4 address to
192.168.0.101 (netmask 255.255.255.0).
6. Power on the device and keeps pressing 1 until you see the prompt.
7. Use default IP addresses and enter the file name accordingly, then hit
enter.
8. Wait until it boots to OpenWrt, the default IP address is 192.168.1.1,
you need to change your PC network adapter to use DHCP in order to access
LUCI.
9. So far, the OpenWrt runs in RAM and the flash contents are not touched.
You can try OpenWrt without having to overwrite the stock firmware, a
reboot clears all changes.
10. Optionally, backup the stock firmware (the "firmware" partition) in
Luci.
11. To permantly install OpenWrt to the device , click
on "System -> Backup/Flash Firmware" in Luci and flash
`xxx-ramips-mt7621-dlink_dir-853-a1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin`
Known problems:
* WLAN0 defaults to 5G after a fresh installation, to enable 2.4G network,
you need to config it manually in LUCI.
* If you see jffs2 related warnings/errors after updating from the stock
web interface, you need to do a reset in LUCI. The error will be gone after
a cold reboot.
