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.

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.)

The purpose of this code seems to be to avoid issues caused
by partially overwriting an existing UBI partition, where some
of the erase counters would be reset but not the unmodified
ones. This problem has been solved in a more generic way by
the UBI EOF marker. This ensures that any old PEBs after the
marker are properly initialized. It is therefore unnecessary
to erase the whole partition before flashing a new OpenWrt
factory image.

The MR42 and MR52 are two similar IPQ806x based devices from the Cisco
Meraki "Cryptid" series.
MR42 main features:
- IPQ8068 1.4GHz
- 512MB RAM
- 128MB NAND
- 2x QCA9992 (2.4 & 5GHz)
- 1x QCA9889 (2.4 & 5GHz)
- 1x AR8033 PHY
- PoE/AC power
MR52 main features:
- IPQ8068 1.4GHz
- 512MB RAM
- 128MB NAND
- 2x QCA9994 (2.4 & 5GHz)
- 1x QCA9889 (2.4 & 5GHz)
- 2x AR8033 PHYs
- PoE/AC power
(MR42 Only) Installation via diagnostic mode:
If you can successfully complete step 1 then you can continue to install
via this method without having to open the device. Otherwise please use
the standard UART method. Please note that when booting via TFTP, some
Ethernet devices, in particular those on laptops, will not connect in
time, resulting in TFTP boot not succeeding. In this instance it is
advised to connect via a switch.
1. Hold down reset at power on and keep holding, after around 10 seconds
if the orange LED changes behaviour to begin flashing, proceed to
release reset, then press reset two times. Ensure that the LED has
turned blue. Note that flashing will occur on some devices, but it
will not be possible to change the LED colour using the reset button.
In this case it will still be possible to continue with this install
method.
2. Set your IP to 192.168.1.250. Set up a TFTP server serving
mr42_u-boot.mbn and
openwrt-ipq806x-generic-meraki_mr42-initramfs-fit-uImage.itb, obtained
from [1].
3. Use telnet and connect to 192.168.1.1. Run the following commands to
install u-boot. Note that all these commands are critical, an error
will likely render the device unusable.
Option 3.1:
If you are sure you have set up the TFTP server correctly you can
run this script on the device. This will download and flash the
u-boot image immediately:
`/etc/update_uboot.sh 192.168.1.250 mr42_u-boot.mbn`
Once completed successfully, power off the device.
Option 3.2:
If you are unsure the TFTP server is correctly set up you can
obtain the image and flash manually:
3.2.1. `cd /tmp`
3.2.2. `tftp-hpa 192.168.1.250 -m binary -c get mr42_u-boot.mbn`
3.2.3. Confirm file has downloaded correctly by comparing the
md5sum:
`md5sum mr42_u-boot.mbn`
3.2.4. The following are the required commands to write the image.
`echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/msm_nand/boot_layout
mtd erase /dev/mtd1
nandwrite -pam /dev/mtd1 mr42_u-boot.mbn
echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/msm_nand/boot_layout`
Important: You must observe the output of the `nandwrite`
command. Look for the following to verify writing is occurring:
`Writing data to block 0 at offset 0x0
Writing data to block 1 at offset 0x20000
Writing data to block 2 at offset 0x40000`
If you do not see this then do not power off the device. Check
your previous commands and that mr42_u-boot.mbn was downloaded
correctly. Once you are sure the image has been written you
can proceed to power off the device.
4. Hold the reset button and power on the device. This will immediately
begin downloading the appropriate initramfs image and boot into it.
Note: If the device does not download the initramfs, this is likely
due to the interface not being brought up in time. Changing Ethernet
source to a router or switch will likely resolve this. You can also
try manually setting the link speed to 10Mb/s Half-Duplex.
5. Once a solid white LED is displayed on the device, continue to the
UART installation method, step 6.
Standard installation via UART - MR42 & MR52
1. Disassemble the device and connect a UART header. The header pinout
is as follows:
1 - 3.3v
2 - TXD
3 - RXD
4 - GND
Important: You should only connect TXD, RXD and GND. Connecting
3.3v may damage the device.
2. Set your IP to 192.168.1.250. Set up a TFTP server serving
openwrt-ipq806x-generic-meraki_(mr42|mr52)-initramfs-fit-uImage.itb.
Separately obtain the respective sysupgrade image.
3. Run the following commands, preferably from a Linux host. The
mentioned files, including ubootwrite.py and u-boot images, can be
obtained from [1].
`python ubootwrite.py --write=(mr42|mr52)_u-boot.bin`
The default for "--serial" option is /dev/ttyUSB0.
4. Power on the device. The ubootwrite script will upload the image to
the device and launch it. The second stage u-boot will in turn load
the initramfs image by TFTP, provided the TFTP server is running
correctly. This process will take about 13 minutes. Once a solid
white LED is displayed, the image has successfully finished
loading. Note: If the image does not load via TFTP, try again with
the Ethernet link to 10Mb/s Half-Duplex.
5. (MR42 only) Do not connect over the network. Instead connect over
the UART using minicom or similar tool. To replace u-boot with
the network enabled version, please run the following commands.
Note that in the provided initramfs images, the u-boot.mbn file
is located in /root:
If you have not used the provided initramfs, you must ensure you
are using an image with "boot_layout" ECC configuration enabled in
the Kernel. This will be version 5.10 or higher. If you do not do
this correctly the device will be bricked.
`insmod mtd-rw i_want_a_brick=1
mtd erase /dev/mtd8
nandwrite -pam /dev/mtd8 /root/mr42_u-boot.mbn`
After running nandwrite, ensure you observe the following output:
`Writing data to block 0 at offset 0x0
Writing data to block 1 at offset 0x20000
Writing data to block 2 at offset 0x40000`
6. (Optional) If you have no further use for the Meraki OS, you can
remove all other UBI volumes on ubi0 (mtd11), including diagnostic1,
part.old, storage and part.safe. You must not remove the ubi1 ART
partition (mtd12).
`for i in diagnostic1 part.old storage part.safe ; do
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -N $i
done`
7. Proceed to flash the sysupgrade image via luci, or else download or
scp the image to /tmp and use the sysupgrade command.

The out-of-tree qcom-smem patches traditionally displayed mtd partition names
in upper case, starting with the new mainline qcom-smem support in kernel v5.10,
it switched to normalizing the partition names to lower case.
While both 5.4 and 5.10 were supported in the target, we carried a workaround
to support both of them. Since the target has dropped 5.4 recently, those
can be removed now.

This adds support for the Netgear Nighthawk Pro Gaming XR500.
It is the successor to the Netgear Nighthawk R7800 and shares almost
identical hardware to that device.
The stock firmware is a heavily modified version of OpenWRT.
Specifications:
SoC: Qualcomm Atheros IPQ8065
RAM: 512 MB
Storage: 256 MiB NAND Flash
Wireless: 2x Qualcomm Atheros QCA9984
Ethernet: 2x 1000/100/10 dedicated interfaces
Switch: 5x 1000/100/10 external ports
USB: 2x 3.0 ports
More information:
Manufacturer page: https://www.netgear.com/gaming/xr500/
Almost identical to Netgear R7800
Differences (r7800 > xr500):

MAC addresses:
On the OEM firmware, the mac addresses are:
WAN: *:50 art 0x6
LAN: *:4f art 0x0 (label)
2G: *:4f art 0x0
5G: *:51 art 0xc
Installation:
Install via Web Interface (preferred):
Utilize openwrt-ipq806x-netgear_xr500-squashfs-factory.img
Install via TFTP recovery:
1.Turn off the power, push and hold the reset button (in a hole on
backside) with a pin
2.Turn on the power and wait till power led starts flashing white
(after it first flashes orange for a while)
3.Release the reset button and tftp the factory img in binary mode.
The power led will stop flashing if you succeeded in transferring
the image, and the router reboots rather quickly with the new
firmware.
4.Try to ping the router (ping 192.168.1.1). If does not respond,
then tftp will not work either.
Uploading the firmware image with a TFTP client
$ tftp 192.168.1.1
bin
put openwrt-ipq806x-netgear_xr500-squashfs-factory.img
Note:
The end of the last partition is at 0xee00000. This was chosen
by the initial author, but nobody was able to tell why this
particular arbitrary size was chosen. Since it's not leaving
too much empty space and it's the only issue left, let's just
keep it for now.

To check what revision your router is, restore one of these config backups
through the stock firmware to get ssh access then run
"cat /proc/device-tree/model".
https://forum.openwrt.org/t/askey-rac2v1k-support/15830/17
The revision number on the board doesn't seem to be very consistent so that's
why this is needed. You can also run printenv in the uboot console and if
machid is set to 177d, that means your router is rev6.
Note: Don't install this if the router is being rented from an ISP. The defined
partition layout is different from the OEM one and even if you changed the
layout to match, backing up and restoring the OEM firmware breaks /overlay so
nothing will save and the router will likely enter a bootloop.
How to install:
Method 1: Install without opening the case using SSH and tftp
You'll need:
RAC2V1K-SSH.zip:
https://github.com/lmore377/openwrt-rt4230w/blob/master/RAC2V1K-SSH.zip
initramfs and sysupgrade images
Connect to one of the router's LAN ports
Download the RAC2V1K-SSH.zip file and restore the config file that
corresponds to your router's firmware (If you're firmware is newer than what's
in the zip file, just restore the 1.1.16 file)
After a reboot, you should be able to ssh into the router with username:
"4230w" and password: "linuxbox" or "admin". Run the following commannds
fw_setenv ipaddr 10.42.0.10 #IP of router, can be anything as long as
it's in the same subnet as the server
fw_setenv serverip 10.42.0.1# #IP of tftp server that's set up in next
steps
fw_setenv bootdelay 8
fw_setenv bootcmd "tftpboot initramfs.bin; bootm; bootipq"
Don't reboot the router yet.
Install and set up a tftp server on your computer
Set a static ip on the ethernet interface of your computer (use this for
serverip in the above commands)
Rename the initramfs image to initramfs.bin, and host it with the tftp
server
Reboot the router. If you set up everything right, the router led should
switch over to a slow blue glow which means openwrt is booted. If for some
reason the file doesn't get loaded into ram properly, it should still boot to
the OEM firmware.
After openwrt boots, ssh into it and run these commands:
fw_setenv bootcmd "setenv mtdids nand0=nand0 && setenv mtdparts
mtdparts=nand0:0x1A000000@0x2400000(firmware) && ubi part firmware && ubi
read 0x44000000 kernel 0x6e0000 && bootm"
fw_setenv bootdelay 2
After openwrt boots up, figure out a way to get the sysupgrade file onto it
(scp, custom build with usb kernel module included, wget, etc.) then flash it
with sysupgrade. After it finishes flashing, it should reboot, the light should
start flashing blue, then when the light starts "breathing" blue that means
openwrt is booted.
Method 2: Install with serial access (Do this if something fails and you can't
boot after using method 1)
You'll need:
initramfs and sysupgrade images
Serial access:
https://openwrt.org/inbox/toh/askey/askey_rt4230w_rev6#opening_the_case
Install and set up a tftp server
Set a static ip on the ethernet interface of your computer
Download the initramfs image, rename it to initramfs.bin, and host it with
the tftp server
Connect the wan port of the router to your computer
Interrupt U-Boot and run these commands:
setenv serverip 10.42.0.1 (You can use whatever ip you set for the computer)
setenv ipaddr 10.42.0.10 (Can be any ip as long as it's in the same subnet)
setenv bootcmd "setenv mtdids nand0=nand0 &&
set mtdparts mtdparts=nand0:0x1A000000@0x2400000(firmware) && ubi part firmware
&& ubi read 0x44000000 kernel 0x6e0000 && bootm"
saveenv
tftpboot initramfs.bin
bootm
After openwrt boots up, figure out a way to get the sysupgrade file onto it
(scp, custom build with usb kernel module included, wget, etc.) then flash it
with sysupgrade. After it finishes flashing, it should reboot, the light should
start flashing blue, then when the light starts "breathing" blue that means
openwrt is booted.

The Ubiquiti UniFi AC HD (UAP-AC-HD, UAP301) has two Ethernet ports,
labeled MAIN and SECONDARY, connected to gmac2 and gmac1, respectively.
The standard probe order results in gmac1/SECONDARY being eth0 and
gmac2/MAIN being eth1. This does not match the stock firmware, is
contrary to user expectation, causes the wrong (high) MAC address to be
used in a bridged configuration (the default for this device), and makes
the gmac2/MAIN port unusable in the preinit environment (such as for
failsafe). Until a recent patch, gmac1/SECONDARY (eth0) was not even
usable.
This reorders the ports so that gmac2/MAIN is eth0, and the now-working
gmac1/SECONDARY is eth1. eth0 has the low MAC address and eth1 has the
high; when bridged, the bridge takes on the correct low MAC address.
This matches the stock firmware. The MAIN port is usable for failsafe
during preinit.
This device does not have a switch on board, so there's no possibility
to remap ports via switch configuration. "ip link set $interface name"
is used instead, during preinit before networking is configured.

2. Login with root account, if password is unknown then interrupt the boot with f and reset it in failsafe.
3. Transfer factory image
4. Flash the image with ubiformat /dev/mtd1 -y -f <your factory image path>
This will replace the rootfs2 with OpenWrt, if you are currently running from rootfs2 then simply change /dev/mtd1 to /dev/mtd0
Note
Initramfs:
1. Connect to console
2. Transfer the image from TFTP server with tftpboot,
or by using DHCP advertised image with dhcp command.
3. bootm
4. Run ubiformat /dev/mtd1
You need to interrupt the bootloader after rebooting and run:
run altbootcmd
This will switch your active rootfs partition to one you wrote to and boot from it.
So if rootfs1 is active, then it will change it to rootfs2.
This will format the rootfs2 partition, if your active partition is 2 then simply change /dev/mtd1 with /dev/mtd0
If you dont format the partition you will be writing too, then sysupgrade will find existing UBI rootfs and kernel volumes and update those.
This will result in wrong ordering and OpenWrt will panic on boot.
5. Transfer sysupgrade image
6. Flash with sysupgrade -n.
Note that sysupgrade will write the image to rootfs partition that is not currently in use.

Consistently handle boot-count reset and upgrade across
ipq40xx, ipq806x, kirkwood, mvebu
Dual-firmware devices often utilize a specific MTD partition
to record the number of times the boot loader has initiated boot.
Most of these devices are NAND, typically with a 2k erase size.
When this code was ported to the ipq40xx platform, the device in hand
used NOR for this partition, with a 16-byte "record" size. As the
implementation of `mtd resetbc` is by-platform, the hard-coded nature
of this change prevented proper operation of a NAND-based device.
* Unified the "NOR" variant with the rest of the Linksys variants
* Added logging to indicate success and failure
* Provided a meaningful return value for scripting
* "Protected" the use of `mtd resetbc` in start-up scripts so that
failure does not end the boot sequence
* Moved Linksys-specific actions into common `/etc/init.d/bootcount`
For upgrade, these devices need to determine which partition to flash,
as well as set certain U-Boot envirnment variables to change the next
boot to the newly flashed version.
* Moved upgrade-related environment changes out of bootcount
* Combined multiple flashes of environment into single one
* Current-partition detection now handles absence of `boot_part`

- UART through-hole on PCB
- J3: Vcc, GND, TX, RX from USB port side
- 115200n8
Boot instructions for the initramfs image:
1. Prepare the TFTP server with the initramfs image renamed to
"wxr2300dhp-initramfs.uImage" and IP address "192.168.11.10".
2. Press the "AOSS" button while powering on the WXR-2533DHP.
3. Wait until the "Wireless" LED flashes before releasing the AOSS button.
The WXR-2533DHP will grab the image from TFTP server and will boot it.
Flashing instructions:
To persistently write the firmware, flash an openwrt sysupgrade image
from inside the initramfs, for example transfer
via `scp <sysupgrade> root@192.168.1.1:/tmp` and flash on the device
with `sysupgrade -n /tmp/<sysupgrade>`. Then wait ~120 seconds to
let it finish the flashing process.

Hardware highlights:
- SoC: Qualcomm Atheros IPQ8064/5 ARM Dual Core CPU
- RAM: (512MB or 1GB) DDR3 System Memory
- Storage: 32MB NOR (Cypress S25FL256S1)
256MB NAND (Micron MT29F2G08ABBEAH4)
- Ethernet: 5 x 1G via QCA8337N
- USB: 1 x USB 2.0/3.0 + 1 x USB 2.0 on mini PCIe3 socket
- PCIe: 3x mini PCIe (third mini PCIE3 is PCIe/USB shared)
- SIM Card Slot: 2 x Slot
- Buttons: Reset Button
- LEDs: 18x, 8x GPIO controllable
- Buzzer
The correct amount of RAM will be passed by the bootloader.
In contrast to the documentation provided by Compex, the third PCIe
doesn't use GPIO16 for PERST. Instead, GPIO3 is shared and used as PERST
for PCIe0 and PCIe2.
So far, no one was able to get USB 3.0 working with the 1GB RAM version,
while it works fine for my 512MB version. Since USB 3.0 doesn't work with
the Compex firmware for the 1G variant either, it could be a hardware
issue with these boards.
OpenWrt will be installed to the NAND flash. Make sure to have a full
working image on the NOR flash. It will be the backup in case anything
goes wrong.
It has been observed that an image loaded via tftpboot might have
bitflips. Hence the extra step to create a crc32 checksum to allow to
compare the checksum with the one from the source file prior to flashing.
In all cases it is necessary to set the following u-boot parameter to an
empty (whitespace) value, to ensure that the chosen bootargs of the dts
isn't overwritten or set to bogus - not working - values:
(IPQ) # set bootargs " "
(IPQ) # set fsbootargs " "
(IPQ) # saveenv
The sysupgrade image can be installed directly on flash using u-boot (put
jumper in JP13 (leave JP9 open) to boot from nand):
(IPQ) # set serverip 192.168.1.20
(IPQ) # set ipaddr 192.168.1.1
(IPQ) # tftpboot 0x42000000 openwrt-ipq806x-compex_wpq864-squashfs-nand-factory.bin
(IPQ) # crc32 0x42000000 $filesize
(IPQ) # nand erase 0x1340000 0x4000000
(IPQ) # nand write 0x42000000 0x1340000 $filesize
The initramfs image can be started using:
(IPQ) # set fdt_high 0x48000000
(IPQ) # tftpboot 0x44000000 openwrt-ipq806x-compex_wpq864-initramfs-fit-uImage.itb

Instead of writing to the currently booted partition set, this
implements full dual-boot support for sysupgrade by always writing to
the other, currently inactive, partition set and toggling the dualflag
after a successful flash.
The currently active/ booted partition set is determined by parsing
/proc/cmdline for its rootfs parameter (supplied by the DTS), instead
of reading from the 0:DUAL_FLAG mtd, in order to prevent (potentially)
bricking both partition sets.

Instead of hardcoding /dev/loop0, it's safer to query for the first

dual-boot support has been added for the nbg6817.
