Installation from Serial Console
------------

1. Connect to the serial console. Power up the device and interrupt
   autoboot when prompted

2. Connect a TFTP server reachable at 192.168.11.10/24
   to the ethernet port. Serve the OpenWrt initramfs image as
   "openwrt.bin"

3. Boot the initramfs image using U-Boot
   ath> tftpboot 0x84000000 openwrt.bin
   ath> bootm 0x84000000

4. Copy the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to the device using scp and
   install it like a normal upgrade (with no need to keeping config
   since no config from "previous OpenWRT installation" could be kept
   at all)

   # sysupgrade -n /path/to/openwrt/sysupgrade.bin

Installation from Web Interface
------------

To flash just do a firmware upgrade from the stock firmware (Buffalo
branded dd-wrt) with squashfs-factory.bin

dde510cf97 ath79: add support for KuWFi N650 CPE
The KuWFi N650 is a 5GHz outdoor wireless bridge based on QCA9563.

Specs
=====

CPU: QCA9563, 775MHz
RAM: 128MiB
Flash: 16MiB
Wireless: QCA9888 (5GHz only)
Ethernet: 2x GBit (via QCA8337), 48V passive PoE

Installation
============

From OEM firmware
-----------------

The OEM firmware has telnet enabled by default. If not, it can be enabled
from the firmware web interface. You need a TFTP server on your computer
and the OpenWrt factory image should be available as "n650factory.bin".
It is assumed that your computer has the IP 192.168.1.1 and the N650
192.168.1.20 (default IP address).

1. Connect via Telnet to the device and log in with the default credentials
   "admin:admin"
2. Exploit the limited interface by typing "ps & /bin/sh"
3. Press <ENTER> to start the shell
4. Enter the following commands:

$ cd /tmp
$ tftp -r n650factory.bin -g 192.168.1.1
$ cat << EOF > /tmp/openwrt.sh
#!/bin/sh

IMAGE_NAME="\$1"

if [ ! -e \${IMAGE_NAME} ]; then
  echo "Image file not found: \${IMAGE_NAME}"
  exit 1
fi

. /usr/sbin/common.sh

kill_remaining TERM
sleep 3
kill_remaining KILL

run_ramfs mtd write \${IMAGE_NAME} firmware
sleep 2
reboot -f
EOF

$ chmod +x /tmp/openwrt.sh
$ /tmp/openwrt.sh n650factory.bin

Once the device reboots, it should load OpenWrt.

From UART
---------

UART installation is possible since the serial header is already soldered
on. The pinout is GND - Tx - Rx - VCC from top to bottom (RJ45 ports are
at the bottom). Connect with 115200 8N1.

First, boot OpenWrt from TFTP. Enter the following commands in the U-Boot
shell, assuming your computer has the IP address 192.168.1.1 and a TFTP
server running where the initramfs image is provided as n650.bin:

  setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.20
  setenv serverip 192.168.1.1
  tftpboot 0x84000000 n650.bin
  bootm

Once booted, transfer -loader.bin and -sysupgrade.bin images to the device
at /tmp. Enter the following commands, replacing the filenames:

  mtd write /tmp/loader.bin loader
  sysupgrade /tmp/sysupgrade.bin

Reboot and OpenWrt should load from flash.

Back to Stock
-------------

Back to stock is only possible if you saved a partition backup before
installing OpenWrt. Assuming you have fullbackup.bin covering the whole
flash, you need to prepare the image as follows:

$ dd if=fullbackup.bin of=fwconcat0.bin bs=65536 skip=4 count=212
$ dd if=fullbackup.bin of=loader.bin bs=65536 skip=216 count=1
$ dd if=fullbackup.bin of=fwconcat1.bin bs=65536 skip=217 count=22
$ cat fwconcat0.bin fwconcat1.bin > firmware.bin

Transfer firmware.bin and loader.bin to the OpenWrt device. First, flash
loader.bin to mtd device loader, then force sysupgrade:

$ mtd write loader.bin loader
$ sysupgrade -F firmware.bin

The reason for the two-step process is the way the flash layout is designed
for OpenWrt in contrast to the OEM firmware partition.

a7abc7ec3b ath79: Add support for Sophos AP15C
The Sophos AP15C uses the same hardware as the AP15, but has a reset button.

Based on:
commit 6f1efb2898 ("ath79: add support for Sophos AP100/AP55 family")
author    Andrew Powers-Holmes <andrew@omnom.net>
          Fri, 3 Sep 2021 15:53:57 +0200 (23:53 +1000)

          Sat, 16 Apr 2022 16:59:29 +0200 (16:59 +0200)

Unique to AP15C:
 - Reset button
 - External RJ45 serial console port

Flashing instructions:

This firmware can be flashed either via a compatible Sophos SG or XG
firewall appliance, which does not require disassembling the device, or via
the U-Boot console available on the internal UART header.

To flash via XG appliance:
 - Register on Sophos' website for a no-cost Home Use XG firewall license
 - Download and install the XG software on a compatible PC or virtual
   machine, complete initial appliance setup, and enable SSH console access
 - Connect the target AP device to the XG appliance's LAN interface
 - Approve the AP from the XG Web UI and wait until it shows as Active
   (this can take 3-5 minutes)
 - Connect to the XG appliance over SSH and access the Advanced Console
   (Menu option 5, then menu option 3)
 - Run `sudo awetool` and select the menu option to connect to an AP via
   SSH. When prompted to enable SSH on the target AP, select Yes.
 - Wait 2-3 minutes, then select the AP from the awetool menu again. This
   will connect you to a root shell on the target AP.
 - Copy the firmware to /tmp/openwrt.bin on the target AP via SCP/TFTP/etc
 - Run `mtd -r write /tmp/openwrt.bin astaro_image`
 - When complete, the access point will reboot to OpenWRT.

To flash via U-Boot serial console:
 - Configure a TFTP server on your PC, and set IP address 192.168.99.8 with
   netmask 255.255.255.0
 - Copy the firmware .bin to the TFTP server and rename to 'uImage_AP15C'
 - Open the target AP's enclosure and locate the 4-pin 3.3V UART header [4]
 - Connect the AP ethernet to your PC's ethernet port
 - Connect a terminal to the UART at 115200 8/N/1 as usual
 - Power on the AP and press a key to cancel autoboot when prompted
 - Run the following commands at the U-Boot console:
    - `tftpboot`
    - `cp.b $fileaddr 0x9f070000 $filesize`
    - `boot`
 - The access point will boot to OpenWRT.

Initial flashing instructions:

Original firmware is based on OpenWrt.

a) Use sysupgrade image directly in vendor GUI.

b) Or via tftp:

  ipaddr=192.168.1.1
  serverip=192.168.1.10
  bootfile="firmware.bin"

c) Or possibly via u-boot's `httpd` command.

MAC-address mapping follows original firmware:

* eth1 (wan) is the lowest mac address (art @ 0x0)
* eth0 (lan) uses eth1 + 1 (art @ 0x1002)
* wlan2g (phy1) uses eth1 + 2 (art @ 0x06)
* wlan5g (phy0) uses eth1 + 10 (not present in art)
* unused MAC (eth1 + 3) (art @ 0x5006)

Art dump (`hexdump /dev/mtd1 |grep ZZZZ`):

  0000000 ZZZZ XXXX XXX0 ZZZZ XXXX XXX2 ffff ffff
  0001000 0202 ZZZZ XXXX XXX1 0000 0000 0000 0000
  0005000 202f bd21 0101 ZZZZ XXXX XXX3 0000 2000

Root access to original firmware (only via UART) can be achieved by
making a backup of configuration from web interface. Backup contains
whole `/etc` directory...

 9. Replace the bootloader with a uboot.bin image
10. Perform sysupgrade with a sysupgrade.bin image
11. Wait ~120 seconds to complete flashing

Notes:

- All LEDs are connected to the TI TCA6416A (marking: PH416A) I2C
  Expander chip.

- The stock bootloader requires an unknown filesystem on firmware area
  in the flash. Booting of OpenWrt from that filesystem cannot be
  handled, so the bootloader needs to be replaced to mainline U-Boot
  before OpenWrt installation.

fc31261c33 ath79: update Sophos AP15 to indicate that it uses an QCA9557 SoC
Device support for Sophos AP15 is based on Sophos AP55(C) and AP100(C).
Those other Sophos access points uss a QCA9558 SoC (some of them with
one of the three chains on the built-in SoC's wifi disabled) while the
AP15 uses a QCA9557 SoC (which only has two chains enabled in the
package or silicon).

This is mostly cosmetic since QCA9558 and QCA9557 are virtually
identical and all differences are automatically detected and/or managed
by the ART calibration.

f84a9f7dc0 ath79: add support for Huawei AP6010DN
Huawei AP6010DN is a dual-band, dual-radio 802.11a/b/g/n 2x2 MIMO
enterprise access point with one Gigabit Ethernet port and PoE
support.

Hardware highlights:
- CPU: AR9344 SoC at 480MHz
- RAM: 128MB DDR2
- Flash: 32MB SPI-NOR
- Wi-Fi 2.4GHz: AR9344-internal radio
- Wi-Fi 5GHz: AR9580 PCIe WLAN SoC
- Ethernet: 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet through Atheros AR8035 PHY
- PoE: yes
- Standalone 12V/2A power input
- Serial console externally available through RJ45 port
- External watchdog: CAT706SVI (1.6s timeout)

Serial console:
  9600n8 (9600 baud, no stop bits, no parity, 8 data bits)

MAC addresses:
  Each device has 32 consecutive MAC addresses allocated by
  the vendor, which don't overlap between devices.
  This was confirmed with multiple devices with consecutive
  serial numbers.
  The MAC address range starts with the address on the label.
  To be able to distinguish between the interfaces,
  the following MAC address scheme is used:
    - eth0 = label MAC
    - radio0 (Wi-Fi 2.4GHz) = label MAC + 1
    - radio1 (Wi-Fi 5GHz) = label MAC + 2

Installation:
0. Connect some sort of RJ45-to-USB adapter to "Console" port of the AP

1. Power up the AP

2. At prompt "Press f or F  to stop Auto-Boot in 3 seconds",
   do what they say.
   Log in with default admin password "admin@huawei.com".

3. Boot the OpenWrt initramfs from TFTP using the hidden script "run ramboot".
   Replace IP address as needed:

   > setenv serverip 192.168.1.10
   > setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
   > setenv rambootfile openwrt-ath79-generic-huawei_ap6010dn-initramfs-kernel.bin
   > saveenv
   > run ramboot

4. Optional but recommended as the factory firmware cannot be downloaded publicly:
   Back up contents of "firmware" partition using the web interface or ssh:

   $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd11 > huawei_ap6010dn_fw_backup.bin

5. Run sysupgrade using sysupgrade image. OpenWrt
   shall boot from flash afterwards.

Return to factory firmware (using firmware upgrade package downloaded from non-public Huawei website):
1. Start a TFTP server in the directory where
   the firmware upgrade package is located

2. Boot to u-boot as described above

3. Install firmware upgrade package and format the config partitions:

   > update system FatAP6X10XN_SOMEVERSION.bin
   > format_fs

Return to factory firmware (from previously created backup):
1. Copy over the firmware partition backup to /tmp,
   for example using scp

2. Use sysupgrade with force to restore the backup:
   sysupgrade -F huawei_ap6010dn_fw_backup.bin

3. Boot AP to U-Boot as described above

Quirks and known issues:
- The stock firmware has a semi dual boot concept where the primary
kernel uses a squashfs as root partition and the secondary kernel uses
an initramfs. This dual boot concept is circumvented on purpose to gain
more flash space and since the stock firmware's flash layout isn't
compatible with mtdsplit.
- The external watchdog's timeout of 1.6s is very hard to satisfy
during bootup. This is why the GPIO15 pin connected to the watchdog input
is configured directly in the LZMA loader to output the AHB_CLK/2 signal
which keeps the watchdog happy until the wdt-gpio kernel driver takes
over. Because it would also take too long to read the whole kernel image
from flash, the uImage header only includes the loader which then reads
the kernel image from flash after GPIO15 is configured.

wireless access point. End of life as of 2022-07-31.

Specification
SoC: QualcommAtheros QCA9550
RAM: 256 MB DDR2
Flash: 32 MB SPI NOR
WIFI: 2.4 GHz 3T3R integrated
      5 GHz 3T3R QCA9890 oversized Mini PCIe card
Ethernet: 2x 10/100/1000 Mbps QCA8334
          port labeled lan1 is PoE capable (802.3at)
USB: 1x 2.0
LEDs: LEDs: 6x which 5 are GPIO controlled and two of them are dual color
Buttons: 2x GPIO controlled
Serial: RJ-45 port, SonicWall pinout
        baud: 115200, parity: none, flow control: none

Before flashing, be sure to have a copy of factory firmware, in case You
wish to revert to original firmware.
All described procedures were done in following environment:
ROM Version: SonicROM (U-Boot) 8.0.0.0-11o
SafeMode Firmware Version: SonicOS 8.0.0.0-14o
Firmware Version: SonicOS 9.0.1.0
In case of other versions, following installation instructions might be
ineffective.

Installation
1. Prepare TFTP server with OpenWrt sysupgrade image and rename that
   image to "sp_fw.bin".
2. Connect to one of LAN ports.
3. Connect to serial port.
4. Hold the reset button (small through hole on side of the unit),
   power on the device and when prompted to stop autoboot, hit any key.
   The held button can now be released.
5. Alter U-Boot environment with following commands:
    setenv bootcmd bootm 0x9F110000
    saveenv
6. Adjust "ipaddr" (access point, default is 192.168.1.1) and "serverip"
   (TFTP server, default is 192.168.1.10) addresses in U-Boot
   environment, then run following commands:
    tftp 0x80060000 sp_fw.bin
    erase 0x9F110000 +0x1EF0000
    cp.b 0x80060000 0x9F110000 $filesize
7. After successful flashing, execute:
    boot
8. The access point will boot to OpenWrt. Wait few minutes, until the
    wrench LED will stop blinking, then it's ready for configuration.

Known issues
Initramfs image can't be bigger than specified kernel size, otherwise
bootloader will throw LZMA decompressing error. Switching to lzma-loader
should workaround that.
This device has Winbond 25Q256FVFG and doesn't have reliable reset, which
causes hang on reboot, thus broken-flash-reset needs to be added. This
property addition causes dispaly of "scary" warning on each boot, take
this warnig into consideration.

1dd036a659 ath79: add support for Senao Engenius ENS1750
FCC ID: A8J-EWS660AP

Engenius ENS1750 is an outdoor wireless access point with
2 gigabit ethernet ports, dual-band wireless,
internal antenna plates, and 802.3at PoE+

Engenius EWS660AP, ENS1750, and ENS1200 are "electrically identical,
different model names are for marketing purpose" according to docs
provided by Engenius to the FCC.

**Specification:**

  - QCA9558 SOC		2.4 GHz, 3x3
  - QCA9880 WLAN	mini PCIe card, 5 GHz, 3x3, 26dBm
  - AR8035-A PHY	RGMII GbE with PoE+ IN
  - AR8033 PHY		SGMII GbE with PoE+ OUT
  - 40 MHz clock
  - 16 MB FLASH		MX25L12845EMI-10G
  - 2x 64 MB RAM
  - UART at J1		populated, RX grounded
  - 6 internal antenna plates (5 dbi, omni-directional)
  - 5 LEDs, 1 button (power, eth0, eth1, 2G, 5G) (reset)

**MAC addresses:**

  Base MAC addressed labeled as "MAC"
  Only one Vendor MAC address in flash

  eth0 *:d4 MAC art 0x0
  eth1 *:d5 --- art 0x0 +1
  phy1 *:d6 --- art 0x0 +2
  phy0 *:d7 --- art 0x0 +3

**Serial Access:**

  the RX line on the board for UART is shorted to ground by resistor R176
  therefore it must be removed to use the console
  but it is not necessary to remove to view boot log

  optionally, R175 can be replaced with a solder bridge short

  the resistors R175 and R176 are next to the UART RX pin

**Installation:**

  2 ways to flash factory.bin from OEM:

  Method 1: Firmware upgrade page:

    OEM webpage at 192.168.1.1
    username and password "admin"
    Navigate to "Firmware Upgrade" page from left pane
    Click Browse and select the factory.bin image
    Upload and verify checksum
    Click Continue to confirm and wait 3 minutes

  Method 2: Serial to load Failsafe webpage:

    After connecting to serial console and rebooting...
    Interrupt uboot with any key pressed rapidly
    execute `run failsafe_boot` OR `bootm 0x9fd70000`
    wait a minute
    connect to ethernet and navigate to
    "192.168.1.1/index.htm"
    Select the factory.bin image and upload
    wait about 3 minutes

**Return to OEM:**

  If you have a serial cable, see Serial Failsafe instructions
  otherwise, uboot-env can be used to make uboot load the failsafe image

  ssh into openwrt and run
  `fw_setenv rootfs_checksum 0`
  reboot, wait 3 minutes
  connect to ethernet and navigate to 192.168.1.1/index.htm
  select OEM firmware image from Engenius and click upgrade

**TFTP recovery:**

  Requires serial console, reset button does nothing

  rename initramfs.bin to '0101A8C0.img'
  make available on TFTP server at 192.168.1.101
  power board, interrupt boot
  execute tftpboot and bootm 0x81000000

**Format of OEM firmware image:**

  The OEM software of ENS1750 is a heavily modified version
  of Openwrt Kamikaze. One of the many modifications
  is to the sysupgrade program. Image verification is performed
  simply by the successful ungzip and untar of the supplied file
  and name check and header verification of the resulting contents.
  To form a factory.bin that is accepted by OEM Openwrt build,
  the kernel and rootfs must have specific names...

    openwrt-ar71xx-generic-ens1750-uImage-lzma.bin
    openwrt-ar71xx-generic-ens1750-root.squashfs

  and begin with the respective headers (uImage, squashfs).
  Then the files must be tarballed and gzipped.
  The resulting binary is actually a tar.gz file in disguise.
  This can be verified by using binwalk on the OEM firmware images,
  ungzipping then untaring.

  Newer EnGenius software requires more checks but their script
  includes a way to skip them, otherwise the tar must include
  a text file with the version and md5sums in a deprecated format.

  The OEM upgrade script is at /etc/fwupgrade.sh.

  OKLI kernel loader is required because the OEM software
  expects the kernel to be no greater than 1536k
  and the factory.bin upgrade procedure would otherwise
  overwrite part of the kernel when writing rootfs.

Note on PLL-data cells:

  The default PLL register values will not work
  because of the external AR8035 switch between
  the SOC and the ethernet port.

  For QCA955x series, the PLL registers for eth0 and eth1
  can be see in the DTSI as 0x28 and 0x48 respectively.
  Therefore the PLL registers can be read from uboot
  for each link speed after attempting tftpboot
  or another network action using that link speed
  with `md 0x18050028 1` and `md 0x18050048 1`.

  The clock delay required for RGMII can be applied
  at the PHY side, using the at803x driver `phy-mode`.
  Therefore the PLL registers for GMAC0
  do not need the bits for delay on the MAC side.
  This is possible due to fixes in at803x driver
  since Linux 5.1 and 5.3

4x LED (Always On Power, LAN, WAN, WLAN)

Flashing instructions:
The original firmware is based on OpenWrt, so flashing the sysupgrade image over the factory firmware is sufficient.
The bootloader has a built-in recovery web-ui. This is the method I used to flash OpenWrt. You can get to the recovery web-ui by holding down the reset button for a few seconds (~5s) while pluggin in the router. The LEDs should start blinking fast and the router should be available on 192.168.1.1 for the recovery.

   for example using scp

2. Use sysupgrade with force to restore the backup:
   sysupgrade -F huawei_ap5030dn_fw_backup.bin

3. Boot AP to U-Boot as described above

Quirks and known issues
-----------------------

- On initial power-up, the Huawei-modified bootloader suspends both
ethernet PHYs (it sets the "Power Down" bit in the MII control
register). Unfortunately, at the time of the initial port, the kernel
driver for the B50612E/BCM54612E PHY behind eth0 doesn't have a resume
callback defined which would clear this bit. This makes the PHY unusable
since it remains suspended forever. This is why the backported kernel
patches in this commit are required which add this callback and for
completeness also a suspend callback.

- The stock firmware has a semi dual boot concept where the primary
kernel uses a squashfs as root partition and the secondary kernel uses
an initramfs. This dual boot concept is circumvented on purpose to gain
more flash space and since the stock firmware's flash layout isn't
compatible with mtdsplit.

- The external watchdog's timeout of 1.6s is very hard to satisfy
during bootup. This is why the GPIO15 pin connected to the watchdog input
is configured directly in the LZMA loader to output the CPU_CLK/4 signal
which keeps the watchdog happy until the wdt-gpio kernel driver takes
over. Because it would also take too long to read the whole kernel image
from flash, the uImage header only includes the loader which then reads
the kernel image from flash after GPIO15 is configured.

 * In factory reset state: OEM Web UI is at 192.168.0.50
   no DHCP, skip wizard by directly accessing:
     http://192.168.0.50/UpdateFirmware_Simple.html
 * After completing setup wizard: Web UI is at 192.168.0.1
     DHCP enabled, login with empty password
 * Flash factory.bin
 * Perform a factory reset to restore OpenWrt UCI defaults

Installation COVR Points B:
 * OEM Web UI is at 192.168.0.50, no DHCP, empty password
 * Flash factory.bin
 * Perform a factory reset to restore OpenWrt UCI defaults

Recovery:
 * Keep reset button pressed during power on
 * Recovery Web UI is at 192.168.0.50, no DHCP
 * Flash factory.bin
   used to work best with Chromium-based browsers or curl:
     curl -F firmware=@factory.bin \
       http://192.168.0.50/upgrade.cgi
   since this fails to work on modern Linux systems,
   there is also a script dlink_recovery_upload.py

Flash instruction using factory.bin image:

1. Boot WAB-I1750-PS without no upstream connection (or PoE connection
   without DHCP)
2. Access to the WebUI ("http://192.168.3.1") on the device and open
   firmware update page
   ("ツールボックス" -> "ファームウェア更新")
3. Select the OpenWrt factory.bin image and click update
   ("アップデート") button
4. Wait ~120 seconds to complete flashing

Revert to OEM firmware:

1. Download the latest OEM firmware
2. Remove 128 bytes(0x80) header from firmware image
3. Decode by xor with a pattern "8844a2d168b45a2d" (hex val)
4. Upload the decoded firmware to the device
5. Flash to "firmware" partition by mtd command
6. Reboot

Notes:

- To use the "SERVICE" port, the connection of 3.3V line is also
  required to enable console output.
  The uart line of "SERVICE" is branched out from the internal pin
  header with 74HC126D and 3.3V line is connected to OE pin on it.

- "SERIAL" port is provided by HS UART on QCA9558 SoC that has
  compatibility with qca,ar9330-uart, but QCA955x SoC's is not supported
  on Linux Kernel and OpenWrt.

- To supply 802.3af PoE on "PSE" port when powered by DC adapter, 12 VDC
  3.5 A adapter is recommended. (official: WAB-EX-ADP1)

Fortinet FAP-220-B is a dual-radio, dual-band 802.11n enterprise managed
access point with PoE input and single gigabit Ethernet interface.

Hardware highlights:
Power: 802.3af PoE input on Ethernet port, +12V input on 5.5/2.1mm DC jack.
SoC: Atheros AR7161 (MIPS 24kc at 680MHz)
RAM: 64MB DDR400
Flash: 16MB SPI-NOR
Wi-Fi 1: Atheros AR9220 2T2R 802.11abgn (dual-band)
Wi-Fi 2: Atheros AR9223 2T2R 802.11bgn (single-band)
Ethernet: Atheros AR8021 single gigabit Phy (RGMII)
Console: External RS232 port using Cisco 8P8C connector (9600-8-N-1)
USB: Single USB 2.0 host port
LEDs: Power (single colour, green), Wi-Fi 1, Wi-Fi 2, Ethernet, Mode, Status
(dual-colour, green and yellow)
Buttons: reset button hidden in bottom grill,
  in the top row, 2nd column from the right.
Label MAC address: eth0

FCC ID: TVE-220102

Serial port pinout:
3 - TxD
4 - GND
6 - RxD

Installation: The same methods apply as for already supported FAP-221-B.

For both methods, a backup of flash partitions is recommended, as stock firmware
is not freely available on the internet.

(a) Using factory image:

1. Connect console cable to the console port
2. Connect Ethernet interface to your PC
3. Start preferred terminal at 9600-8-N-1
4. Have a TFTP server running on the PC.
5. Put the "factory" image in TFTP root
6. Power on the device
7. Break boot sequence by pressing "Ctrl+C"
8. Press "G". The console will ask you for device IP, server IP, and filename.
   Enter them appropriately.
   The defaults are:
   Server IP: 192.168.1.1 # Update accordingly
   Device IP: 192.168.1.2 # Update accordingly
   Image file: image.out # Use for example: openwrt-ath79-generic-fortinet_fap-220-b-squashfs-factory.bin
9. The device will load the firmware over TFTP, and verify it. When
   verification passes, press "D" to continue installation. The device
   will reboot on completion.

(b) Using initramfs + sysupgrade
1. Connect console cable to the console port
2. Connect Ethernet interface to your PC
3. Start preferred terminal at 9600-8-N-1
4. Have a TFTP server running on the PC.
5. Put the "initramfs" image in TFTP root
6. Power on the device.
7. Break boot sequence by pressing "Ctrl+C"
8. Enter hidden U-boot shell by pressing "K". The password is literal "1".
9. Load the initramfs over TFTP:

   > setenv serverip 192.168.1.1 # Your PC IP
   > setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.22 # Device IP, both have to share a subnet.
   > tftpboot 81000000 openwrt-ath79-generic-fortinet_fap-220-b-initramfs-kernel.bin
   > bootm 81000000

10. (Optional) Copy over contents of at least "fwconcat0", "loader", and "fwconcat1"
    partitions, to allow restoring factory firmware in future:

    # cat /dev/mtd1 > /tmp/mtd1_fwconcat0.bin
    # cat /dev/mtd2 > /tmp/mtd2_loader.bin
    # cat /dev/mtd3 > /tmp/mtd3_fwconcat1.bin

    and then SCP them over to safety at your PC.

11. When the device boots, copy over the sysupgrade image, and execute
    normal upgrade:

    # sysupgrade openwrt-ath79-generic-fortinet_fap-220-b-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

Return to stock firmware:
1. Boot initramfs image as per initial installation up to point 9
2. Copy over the previously backed up contents over network
3. Write the backed up contents back:

   # mtd write /tmp/mtd1_fwconcat0.bin fwconcat0
   # mtd write /tmp/mtd2_loader.bin loader
   # mtd write /tmp/mtd3_fwconcat1.bin fwconcat1

4. Erase the reserved partition:

   # mtd erase reserved

5. Reboot the device

Quirks and known issues:
- The power LED blinking pattern is disrupted during boot, probably due
  to very slow serial console, which prints a lot during boot compared
  to stock FW.
- "mac-address-ascii" device tree binding cannot yet be used for address
  stored in U-boot partition, because it expects the colons as delimiters,
  which this address lacks. Addresses found in ART partition are used
  instead.
- Due to using kmod-owl-loader, the device will lack wireless interfaces
  while in initramfs, unless you compile it in.
- The device heats up A LOT on the bottom, even when idle. It even
  contains a warning sticker there.
- Stock firmware uses a fully read-write filesystem for its rootfs.
- Stock firmware loads a lot of USB-serial converter drivers for use
  with built-in host, probably meant for hosting modem devices.
- U-boot build of the device is stripped of all branding, despite that
  evidence of it (obviously) being U-boot can be found in the binary.
- The user can break into hidden U-boot shell using key "K" after
  breaking boot sequence. The password is "1" (without quotes).
- Telnet is available by default, with login "admin", without password.
  The same is true for serial console, both drop straight to the Busybox
  shell.
- The web interface drops to the login page again, after successfull
  login.
- Whole image authentication boils down to comparing a device ID against
  one stored in U-boot.
- And this device is apparently made by a security company.

Big thanks for Michael Pratt for providing support for FAP-221-B, which
shares the entirety of image configuration with this device, this saved
me a ton of work.

520c9917f8 ath79: add support for ASUS RT-AC59U / ZenWiFi CD6
ASUS RT-AC59U / RT-AC59U v2 are wi-fi routers with a large number of
alternate names, including RT-AC1200GE, RT-AC1300G PLUS, RT-AC1500UHP,
RT-AC57U v2/v3, RT-AC58U v2/v3, and RT-ACRH12.

ASUS ZenWiFi AC Mini(CD6) is a mesh wifi system. The unit labeled CD6R
is the router, and CD6N is the node.

Hardware:

- SoC: QCN5502
- RAM: 128 MiB
- UART: 115200 baud (labeled on boards)
- Wireless:
  - 2.4GHz: QCN5502 on-chip 4x4 802.11b/g/n
    currently unsupported due to missing support for QCN550x in ath9k
  - 5GHz: QCA9888 pcie 5GHz 2x2 802.11a/n/ac
- Flash: SPI NOR
  - RT-AC59U / CD6N: 16 MiB
  - RT-AC59U v2 / CD6R: 32 MiB
- Ethernet: gigabit
  - RT-AC59U / RT-AC59U v2: 4x LAN 1x WAN
  - CD6R: 3x LAN 1x WAN
  - CD6N: 2x LAN
- USB:
  - RT-AC59U / RT-AC59U v2: 1 port USB 2.0
  - CD6R / CD6N: none

WiFi calibration data contains valid MAC addresses.

The initramfs image is uncompressed because I was unable to boot a
compressed initramfs from memory (gzip or lzma). Booting a compressed
image from flash works fine.

Installation:

To install without opening the case:

- Set your computer IP address to 192.168.1.10/24
- Power up with the Reset button pressed
- Release the Reset button after about 5 seconds or until you see the
  power LED blinking slowly
- Upload OpenWRT factory image via TFTP client to 192.168.1.1

Revert to stock firmware using the same TFTP method.

935a63c59d ath79: add support for COMFAST CF-E380AC v2
COMFAST CF-E380AC v2 is a ceiling mount AP with PoE
support, based on Qualcomm/Atheros QCA9558+QCA9880+AR8035.

There are two versions of this model, with different RAM
and U-Boot mtd partition sizes:
- v1: 128 MB of RAM, 128 KB U-Boot image size
- v2: 256 MB of RAM, 256 KB U-Boot image size

Version number is available only inside vendor GUI,
hardware and markings are the same.

Short specification:

- 720/600/200 MHz (CPU/DDR/AHB)
- 1x 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet, with PoE support
- 128 or 256 MB of RAM (DDR2)
- 16 MB of FLASH
- 3T3R 2.4 GHz, with external PA (SE2576L), up to 28 dBm
- 3T3R 5 GHz, with external PA (SE5003L1), up to 30 dBm
- 6x internal antennas
- 1x RGB LED, 1x button
- UART (T11), LEDs/GPIO (J7) and USB (T12) headers on PCB
- external watchdog (Pericon Technology PT7A7514)

COMFAST MAC addresses :
Though the OEM firmware has four adresses in the usual locations,
it appears that the assigned addresses are just incremented in a different way:

Interface    address    location
Lan              *:00           0x0
2.4g             *:0A           n/a (0x0 + 10)
5g               *:02           0x6

Unused Addresses found in ART hexdump
address    location
*:01           0x1002
*:03           0x5006

To keep code consistency the MAC address assignments are made based on increments of the one found in 0x0;

90ad13c763 ath79: create APBoot-compatible image for Aruba AP-175
As was done in commit e11d00d44c ("ath79: create Aruba AP-105 APBoot
compatible image"), alter the Aruba AP-175 image generation process so
OpenWrt can be loaded with the vendor Aruba APBoot. Since the
remainder of the explanation and installation process is identical,
continuing the quote from that commit:

This works by prepending the OpenWrt LZMA loader to the uImage and
jumping directly to the loader. Aruba does not offer bootm on these
boards.

This approach keeps compatibility to devices which had their U-Boot
replaced. Both bootloaders can boot the same image.

With this patch, new installations do not require replacing the
bootloader and can be performed from the serial console without
opening the case.

Installation
------------

1. Attach to the serial console of the AP-175.
   Interrupt autoboot and change the U-Boot env.

   $ setenv apb_rb_openwrt "setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1;
     setenv serverip 192.168.1.66;
     netget 0x84000000 ap175.bin; go 0x84000040"
   $ setenv apb_fb_openwrt "cp.b 0xbf040000 0x84000000 0x10000;
     go 0x84000040"
   $ setenv bootcmd "run apb_fb_openwrt"
   $ saveenv

2. Load the OpenWrt initramfs image on the device using TFTP.
   Place the initramfs image as "ap175.bin" in the TFTP server
   root directory, connect it to the AP and make the server reachable
   at 192.168.1.66/24.

   $ run apb_rb_openwrt

3. Once OpenWrt booted, transfer the sysupgrade image to the device
   using scp and use sysupgrade to install the firmware.

RAM: 128MiB
Flash: 32MiB SPI NOR
LAN: 1x 10/100MBit
WAN: 1x 10/100MBit
LTE: MDM9607 USB 2.0 (rndis configuration)
WiFi: 802.11n (SoC integrated)

MAC address assignment
======================

There are three MAC addresses stored in the flash ROM, the assignment
follows stock. The MAC on the label is the WiFi MAC address.

Installation (TFTP)
===================

1. Connect serial console
2. Configure static IP to 192.168.1.112
3. Put OpenWrt factory.bin file as firmware-system.bin
4. Press Power + WPS and plug in power
5. Keep buttons pressed until TFTP requests are visible
6. Wait for the system to finish flashing and wait for reboot
7. Bootup will fail as the kernel offset is wrong
8. Run "setenv bootcmd bootm 0x9f150000"
9. Reset board and enjoy OpenWrt

Installation (without UART)
===========================

Installation without UART is a bit tricky and requires several steps too
long for the commit message. Basic steps:

1. Create configure backup
2. Patch backup file to enable SSH
3. Login via SSH and configure the new bootcmd
3. Flash OpenWrt factory.bin image manually (sysupgrade doesn't work)

More detailed instructions will be provided on the Wiki page.

12f52336d2 ath79: Add Aruba AP-175 support
This board is very similar to the Aruba AP-105, but is
outdoor-first. It is very similar to the MSR2000 (though certain
MSR2000 models have a different PHY[^1]).

A U-Boot replacement is required to install OpenWrt on these
devices[^2].

Specifications
--------------
* Device:	Aruba AP-175
* SoC:		Atheros AR7161 680 MHz MIPS
* RAM:		128MB - 2x Mira P3S12D40ETP
* Flash:	16MB MXIC MX25L12845EMI-10G (SPI-NOR)
* WiFi:		2 x DNMA-H92 Atheros AR9220-AC1A 802.11abgn
* ETH:		IC+ IP1001 Gigabit + PoE PHY
* LED:		2x int., plus 12 ext. on TCA6416 GPIO expander
* Console:	CP210X linking USB-A Port to CPU console @ 115200
* RTC:		DS1374C, with internal battery
* Temp:		LM75 temperature sensor

Factory installation:

- Needs a u-boot replacement. The process is almost identical to that
  of the AP105, except that the case is easier to open, and that you
  need to compile u-boot from a slightly different branch:
  https://github.com/Hurricos/u-boot-ap105/tree/ap175

  The instructions for performing an in-circuit reflash with an
  SPI-Flasher like a CH314A can be found on the OpenWrt Wiki
  (https://openwrt.org/toh/aruba/ap-105); in addition a detailed guide
  may be found on YouTube[^3].

- Once u-boot has been replaced, a USB-A-to-A cable may be used to
  connect your PC to the CP210X inside the AP at 115200 baud; at this
  point, the normal u-boot serial flashing procedure will work (set up
  networking; tftpboot and boot an OpenWrt initramfs; sysupgrade to
  OpenWrt proper.)

- There is no built-in functionality to revert back to stock firmware,
  because the AP-175 has been declared by the vendor[^4] end-of-life
  as of 31 Jul 2020. If for some reason you wish to return to stock
  firmware, take a backup of the 16MiB flash before flashing u-boot.

Ruckus ZoneFlex 7363 is a dual-band, dual-radio 802.11n 2x2 MIMO enterprise
access point. ZoneFlex 7343 is the single band variant of 7363
restricted to 2.4GHz, and ZoneFlex 7341 is 7343 minus two Fast Ethernet
ports.

Hardware highligts:
- CPU: Atheros AR7161 SoC at 680 MHz
- RAM: 64MB DDR
- Flash: 16MB SPI-NOR
- Wi-Fi 2.4GHz: AR9280 PCI 2x2 MIMO radio with external beamforming
- Wi-Fi 5GHz: AR9280 PCI 2x2 MIMO radio with external beamforming
- Ethernet 1: single Gigabit Ethernet port through Marvell 88E1116R gigabit PHY
- Ethernet 2: two Fast Ethernet ports through Realtek RTL8363S switch,
  connected with Fast Ethernet link to CPU.
- PoE: input through Gigabit port
- Standalone 12V/1A power input
- USB: optional single USB 2.0 host port on the -U variants.

Serial console: 115200-8-N-1 on internal H1 header.
Pinout:

H1 ----------
   |1|x3|4|5|
   ----------

Pin 1 is near the "H1" marking.
1 - RX
x - no pin
3 - VCC (3.3V)
4 - GND
5 - TX

Installation:
- Using serial console - requires some disassembly, 3.3V USB-Serial
  adapter, TFTP server, and removing a single PH1 screw.

0. Connect serial console to H1 header. Ensure the serial converter
   does not back-power the board, otherwise it will fail to boot.

1. Power-on the board. Then quickly connect serial converter to PC and
   hit Ctrl+C in the terminal to break boot sequence. If you're lucky,
   you'll enter U-boot shell. Then skip to point 3.
   Connection parameters are 115200-8-N-1.

2. Allow the board to boot.  Press the reset button, so the board
   reboots into U-boot again and go back to point 1.

3. Set the "bootcmd" variable to disable the dual-boot feature of the
   system and ensure that uImage is loaded. This is critical step, and
   needs to be done only on initial installation.

   > setenv bootcmd "bootm 0xbf040000"
   > saveenv

4. Boot the OpenWrt initramfs using TFTP. Replace IP addresses as needed.
   Use the Gigabit interface, Fast Ethernet ports are not supported
   under U-boot:

   > setenv serverip 192.168.1.2
   > setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
   > tftpboot 0x81000000 openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7363-initramfs-kernel.bin
   > bootm 0x81000000

5. Optional, but highly recommended: back up contents of "firmware" partition:

   $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd1 > ruckus_zf7363_fw_backup.bin

6. Copy over sysupgrade image, and perform actual installation. OpenWrt
   shall boot from flash afterwards:

   $ ssh root@192.168.1.1
   # sysupgrade -n openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7363-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

   After unit boots, it should be available at the usual 192.168.1.1/24.

Return to factory firmware:

1. Copy over the backup to /tmp, for example using scp
2. Unset the "bootcmd" variable:
   fw_setenv bootcmd ""
3. Use sysupgrade with force to restore the backup:
   sysupgrade -F ruckus_zf7363_backup.bin
4. System will reboot.

Quirks and known issues:
- Fast Ethernet ports on ZF7363 and ZF7343 are supported, but management
  features of the RTL8363S switch aren't implemented yet, though the
  switch is visible over MDIO0 bus. This is a gigabit-capable switch, so
  link establishment with a gigabit link partner may take a longer time
  because RTL8363S advertises gigabit, and the port magnetics don't
  support it, so a downshift needs to occur. Both ports are accessible
  at eth1 interface, which - strangely - runs only at 100Mbps itself.
- Flash layout is changed from the factory, to use both firmware image
  partitions for storage using mtd-concat, and uImage format is used to
  actually boot the system, which rules out the dual-boot capability.
- Both radio has its own EEPROM on board, not connected to CPU.
- The stock firmware has dual-boot capability, which is not supported in
  OpenWrt by choice.
  It is controlled by data in the top 64kB of RAM which is unmapped,
  to avoid the interference in the boot process and accidental
  switch to the inactive image, although boot script presence in
  form of "bootcmd" variable should prevent this entirely.
- On some versions of stock firmware, it is possible to obtain root shell,
  however not much is available in terms of debugging facitilies.
  1. Login to the rkscli
  2. Execute hidden command "Ruckus"
  3. Copy and paste ";/bin/sh;" including quotes. This is required only
     once, the payload will be stored in writable filesystem.
  4. Execute hidden command "!v54!". Press Enter leaving empty reply for
     "What's your chow?" prompt.
  5. Busybox shell shall open.
  Source: https://alephsecurity.com/vulns/aleph-2019014
- There is second method to achieve root shell, using command injection
  in the web interface:
  1. Login to web administration interface
  2. Go to Administration > Diagnostics
  3. Enter |telnetd${IFS}-p${IFS}204${IFS}-l${IFS}/bin/sh into "ping"
     field
  4. Press "Run test"
  5. Telnet to the device IP at port 204
  6. Busybox shell shall open.

Ruckus ZoneFlex 7351 is a dual-band, dual-radio 802.11n 2x2 MIMO enterprise
access point.

Hardware highligts:
- CPU: Atheros AR7161 SoC at 680 MHz
- RAM: 64MB DDR
- Flash: 16MB SPI-NOR
- Wi-Fi 2.4GHz: AR9280 PCI 2x2 MIMO radio with external beamforming
- Wi-Fi 5GHz: AR9280 PCI 2x2 MIMO radio with external beamforming
- Ethernet: single Gigabit Ethernet port through Marvell 88E1116R gigabit PHY
- Standalone 12V/1A power input
- USB: optional single USB 2.0 host port on the 7351-U variant.

Serial console: 115200-8-N-1 on internal H1 header.
Pinout:

H1 ----------
   |1|x3|4|5|
   ----------

Pin 1 is near the "H1" marking.
1 - RX
x - no pin
3 - VCC (3.3V)
4 - GND
5 - TX

Installation:
- Using serial console - requires some disassembly, 3.3V USB-Serial
  adapter, TFTP server, and removing a single T10 screw.

0. Connect serial console to H1 header. Ensure the serial converter
   does not back-power the board, otherwise it will fail to boot.

1. Power-on the board. Then quickly connect serial converter to PC and
   hit Ctrl+C in the terminal to break boot sequence. If you're lucky,
   you'll enter U-boot shell. Then skip to point 3.
   Connection parameters are 115200-8-N-1.

2. Allow the board to boot.  Press the reset button, so the board
   reboots into U-boot again and go back to point 1.

3. Set the "bootcmd" variable to disable the dual-boot feature of the
   system and ensure that uImage is loaded. This is critical step, and
   needs to be done only on initial installation.

   > setenv bootcmd "bootm 0xbf040000"
   > saveenv

4. Boot the OpenWrt initramfs using TFTP. Replace IP addresses as needed:

   > setenv serverip 192.168.1.2
   > setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
   > tftpboot 0x81000000 openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7351-initramfs-kernel.bin
   > bootm 0x81000000

5. Optional, but highly recommended: back up contents of "firmware" partition:

   $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd1 > ruckus_zf7351_fw_backup.bin

6. Copy over sysupgrade image, and perform actual installation. OpenWrt
   shall boot from flash afterwards:

   $ ssh root@192.168.1.1
   # sysupgrade -n openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7351-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

   After unit boots, it should be available at the usual 192.168.1.1/24.

Return to factory firmware:
1. Copy over the backup to /tmp, for example using scp
2. Unset the "bootcmd" variable:
   fw_setenv bootcmd ""
3. Use sysupgrade with force to restore the backup:
   sysupgrade -F ruckus_zf7351_backup.bin
4. System will reboot.

Quirks and known issues:
- Flash layout is changed from the factory, to use both firmware image
  partitions for storage using mtd-concat, and uImage format is used to
  actually boot the system, which rules out the dual-boot capability.
- Both radio has its own EEPROM on board, not connected to CPU.
- The stock firmware has dual-boot capability, which is not supported in
  OpenWrt by choice.
  It is controlled by data in the top 64kB of RAM which is unmapped,
  to avoid the interference in the boot process and accidental
  switch to the inactive image, although boot script presence in
  form of "bootcmd" variable should prevent this entirely.
- On some versions of stock firmware, it is possible to obtain root shell,
  however not much is available in terms of debugging facitilies.
  1. Login to the rkscli
  2. Execute hidden command "Ruckus"
  3. Copy and paste ";/bin/sh;" including quotes. This is required only
     once, the payload will be stored in writable filesystem.
  4. Execute hidden command "!v54!". Press Enter leaving empty reply for
     "What's your chow?" prompt.
  5. Busybox shell shall open.

- There is second method to achieve root shell, using command injection
  in the web interface:
  1. Login to web administration interface
  2. Go to Administration > Diagnostics
  3. Enter |telnetd${IFS}-p${IFS}204${IFS}-l${IFS}/bin/sh into "ping"
     field
  4. Press "Run test"
  5. Telnet to the device IP at port 204
  6. Busybox shell shall open.

f9c28222c8 ath79: add support for Senao Engenius ESR1200
FCC ID: A8J-ESR900

Engenius ESR1200 is an indoor wireless router with
a gigabit ethernet switch, dual-band wireless,
internal antenna plates, and a USB 2.0 port

**Specification:**

  - QCA9557 SOC		2.4 GHz, 2x2
  - QCA9882 WLAN	PCIe mini card, 5 GHz, 2x2
  - QCA8337N SW		4 ports LAN, 1 port WAN
  - 40 MHz clock
  - 16 MB FLASH		MX25L12845EMI-10G
  - 2x 64 MB RAM
  - UART at J1		populated, RX grounded
  - 6 internal antenna plates (omni-directional)
  - 5 LEDs, 1 button (power, 2G, 5G, WAN, WPS) (reset)

**MAC addresses:**

  Base MAC address labeled as "MAC ADDRESS"
  MAC "wanaddr" is not similar to "ethaddr"

  eth0 *:c8 MAC u-boot-env ethaddr
  phy0 *:c8 MAC u-boot-env ethaddr
  phy1 *:c9 --- u-boot-env ethaddr +1
  WAN  *:66:44  u-boot-env wanaddr

**Serial Access:**

  RX on the board for UART is shorted to ground by resistor R176
  therefore it must be removed to use the console
  but it is not necessary to remove to view boot log

  optionally, R175 can be replaced with a solder bridge short

  the resistors R175 and R176 are next to the UART RX pin

**Installation:**

  Method 1: Firmware upgrade page

    OEM webpage at 192.168.0.1
    username and password "admin"
    Navigate to Settings (gear icon) --> Tools --> Firmware
    select the factory.bin image
    confirm and wait 3 minutes

  Method 2: TFTP recovery

    Follow TFTP instructions using initramfs.bin
    use sysupgrade.bin to flash using openwrt web interface

**Return to OEM:**

  MTD partitions should be backed up before flashing
  using TFTP to boot openwrt without overwriting flash

  Alternatively, it is possible to edit OEM firmware images
  to flash MTD partitions in openwrt to restore OEM firmware
  by removing the OEM header and writing the rest to "firmware"

**TFTP recovery:**

  Requires serial console, reset button does nothing at boot

  rename initramfs.bin to 'uImageESR1200'
  make available on TFTP server at 192.168.99.8
  power board, interrupt boot by pressing '4' rapidly
  execute tftpboot and bootm

**Note on ETH switch registers**

  Registers must be written to the ethernet switch
  in order to set up the switch's MAC interface.
  U-boot can write the registers on it's own
  which is needed, for example, in a TFTP transfer.

  The register bits from OEM for the QCA8337 switch
  can be read from interrupted boot (tftpboot, bootm)
  by adding print lines in the switch driver ar8327.c
  before 'qca,ar8327-initvals' is parsed from DTS and written.
  for example:

    pr_info("0x04 %08x\n", ar8xxx_read(priv, AR8327_REG_PAD0_MODE));
