ALFA Network AP120C-AC is a dual-band ceiling AP, based on Qualcomm
IPQ4018 + QCA8075 platform.
Specification:
- Qualcomm IPQ4018 (717 MHz)
- 256 MB of RAM (DDR3)
- 16 MB (SPI NOR) + 128 MB (SPI NAND) of flash
- 2x Gbps Ethernet, with 802.3af PoE support in one port
- 2T2R 2.4/5 GHz (IPQ4018), with ext. FEMs (QFE1952, QFE1922)
- 3x U.FL connectors
- 1x 1.8 dBi (Bluetooth) and 2x 3/5 dBi dual-band (Wi-Fi) antennas
- Atmel/Microchip AT97SC3205T TPM module (I2C bus)
- TI CC2540 Bluetooth LE module (USB 2.0 bus)
- 4x LED (all driven by GPIO)
- 1x button (reset)
- 1x USB 2.0 (optional, not installed in indoor version)
- DC jack for main power input (12 V)
- UART header available on PCB (2.0 mm pitch)
Flash instruction:
1. This board uses dual-image feature (128 MB NAND is divided into two
64 MB partitions: 'rootfs1' and 'rootfs2').
2. Before update, make sure your device is running firmware no older
than v1.1 (previous versions have incompatible U-Boot).
3. Use 'factory' image in vendor GUI or for sysupgrade tool, without
preserving settings.

SoC: Qualcomm IPQ4019 (Dakota) 717 MHz, 4 cores
RAM: 256 MiB (Nanya NT5CC128M16IP-DI)
FLASH: 128 MiB (Macronix NAND)
WiFi0: Qualcomm IPQ4019 b/g/n 2x2
WiFi1: Qualcomm IPQ4019 a/n/ac 2x2
WiFi2: Qualcomm Atheros QCA9886 a/n/ac
BT: Atheros AR3012
IN: WPS Button, Reset Button
OUT: RGB-LED via TI LP5523 9-channel Controller
UART: Front of Device - 115200 N-8
Pinout 3.3v - RX - TX - GND (Square is VCC)
Installation:
1. Transfer OpenWRT-initramfs image to the device via SSH to /tmp.
Login credentials are identical to the Web UI.
2. Login to the device via SSH.
3. Flash the initramfs image using
> mtd-write -d linux -i openwrt-image-file
4. Power-cycle the device and wait for OpenWRT to boot.
5. From there flash the OpenWRT-sysupgrade image.
Ethernet-Ports: Although labeled identically, the port next to
the power socket is the LAN port and the other one is WAN. This
is the same behavior as in the stock firmware.

Tested and working:
- USB (requires extra packages)
- LAN Ethernet (Correct MAC-address)
- WAN Ethernet (Correct MAC-address)
- 2.4 GHz WiFi (Correct MAC-address)
- 5 GHz WiFi (Correct MAC-address)
- Factory installation from Web UI
- OpenWRT sysupgrade
- LED
- Reset Button
Need Testing:
- WPS button
Install via Web UI:
- Attach to a LAN port on the router.
- Connect to the Linksys Smart WiFi Page (default 192.168.1.1) and login
- Select the connectivity tab on the left
- In the manual update box on the right
- Select browse, and browse to
openwrt-ipq40xx-linksys_ea6350v3-squashfs-factory.bin
- Click update.
- Read and accept the warning
- The router LED will start blinking. When the router LED goes solid, you
can now navigate to 192.168.1.1 to your new OpenWrt installation.
Sysupgrade:
- Flash the sysupgrade image as usual. Please: try to do a reset everytime
you can (doing it with LuCI is easy and can be done in the same step).
Recovery (Automatic):
- If the device fails to boot after install or upgrade, whilst the unit is
turned on:
1 - Wait 15 seconds
2 - Switch Off and Wait 10 seconds
3 - Switch on
4 - Repeat steps 1 to 3, 3 times then go to 5.
5 - U-boot will have now erased the failed update and switched back to the
last working firmware - you should be able to access your router on
LAN.
Recovery (Manual):
- The steps for manual recovery are the same as the generic u-boot tftp
client method.
Back To Stock:
- Use the generic recovery using the tftp client method to flash the
"civic.img". Also you can strip-and-pad the original image and use
the generic "mtd" method by flashing over the "kernel" partition.
* Just be careful to flash in the partition that the device is currently
booted.

This patch fixes a kernel warning that got triggered by 4.19
because of a bad/missing interrupt level definition in the DTS.

Upstream commit:

removed all the platform device compatibles stating that:
"This patch removes the unnecessary board file. The generic machine
definition is sufficient for the Qualcomm platforms."

This adds the necessary patches for 4.19 kernel.
Upstreamed patches were dropped, backported upstreamed patches
from 4.20.
Drop Winbond ID patch since that NAND IC was upstreamed to use
SPI-NAND framework and support for it was backported from 4.20.
Rework ESSEDMA patches to compile under 4.19 due to timer changes,
Clément Péron did the hard work and his changes were taken from the
initial 4.19 PR.
MR33 changes had to be manually refreshed to apply.
Refresh other patches to apply.
