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;

db02cecd6a ath79: add support for MikroTik RB951G-2HnD
MikroTik RB951G-2HnD is a wireless SOHO router that was previously
supported by the ar71xx target, see commit 7a709573d7 ("ar71xx: add
kernel support for the Mikrotik RB951G board").

Specifications
--------------

  - SoC: Atheros AR9344 (600 MHz)
  - RAM: 128 MB (2x 64 MB)
  - Storage: 128 MB NAND flash (various manufacturers)
  - Ethernet: Atheros AR8327 switch, 5x 10/100/1000 Mbit/s
      - 1x PoE in (port 1, 8-30 V input)
  - Wireless: Atheros AR9340 (802.11b/g/n)
  - USB: 2.0 (1A)
  - 8x LED:
      - 1x power (green, not configurable)

      - 5x GE ports (green, not configurable)
      - 1x wireless (green, not configurable)
  - 1x button (restart)

Unlike on the RB951Ui-2HnD, none of the LEDs on this device seem to be
GPIO-controllable, which was also the case for older OpenWRT versions
that supported this board via a mach file.  The Ethernet port LEDs are
controlled by the switch chip.

See https://mikrotik.com/product/RB951G-2HnD for more details.

ec4d63ffb3 nu801: add kmod-leds-uleds to MR26 + MR18
support for MR18 and MR26 was developped before
the userspace nu801 was integrated with x86's
MX100 into OpenWrt. The initial nu801 + kmod-leds-uleds
caused build-bot errors.

The solution that worked for the MX100 was to include
the kmod-leds-uleds to the device platform module.
Thankfully, the MR26 and MR18 can just add the uleds
package to the DEVICE_PACKAGES variable.

d97143fadc ath79: mikrotik: bump compat version for yafut images
Following 5264296, Mirotik NAND devices now use yafut to flash the
kernel on devices. This method is incompatible with the old-style
"kernel2minor" flash mechanism.

Even though NAND images were disabled in default build since 21.02, a
user flashing a new-style image onto an old-style image would result in
in a soft-brick[1]. In order to prevent such accidental mishap,
especially as these device images will be reenabled in the upcoming
release, bump the compat version.

After the new image is flashed, the compat version can be updated:

Flashing instructions:

Depending on the installed firmware, there are vastly different
methods to flash a MR18. These have been documented on:
<https://openwrt.org/toh/meraki/mr18>

Tip:
Use an initramfs from a previous release and then use sysupgrade
to get to the later releases. This is because the initramfs can
no longer be built by the build-bots due to its size (>8 MiB).

Note on that:
Upgrades from AR71XX releases are possible, but they will
require the force sysupgrade option ( -F ).

Please backup your MR18's configuration before starting the
update. The reason here is that a lot of development happend
since AR71XX got removed, so I do advise to use the ( -n )
option for sysupgrade as well. This will cause the device
to drop the old AR71xx configuration and make a new
configurations from scratch.

Note on LEDs:
The LEDs has changed since AR71XX. The white LED is now used during
the boot and when upgrading instead of the green tricolor LED. The
technical reason is that currently the RGB-LED is brought up later
by a userspace daemon.

(added warning note about odm-caldata partition. remove initramfs -
it's too big to be built by the bots. MerakiNAND -> meraki-header.

590d1fd0e6 ath79: add support for ZTE MF282
The ZTE MF282 is a LTE router used (exclusively?) by the network operator
"3".

Specifications
==============

SoC: QCA9563 (775MHz)
RAM: 128MiB
Flash: 8MiB SPI-NOR + 128MiB SPI-NAND
LAN: 1x GBit LAN
LTE: ZTE MF270 (Cat4), detected as P685M
WiFi: QCA9880ac + QCA9560bgn

MAC addresses
=============

LAN: from config
WiFi 1: from config
WiFi 2: +1

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

TFTP installation using UART is preferred. Disassemble the device and
connect serial. Put the initramfs image as openwrt.bin to your TFTP server
and configure a static IP of 192.168.1.100. Load the initramfs image by
typing:

  setenv serverip 192.168.1.100
  setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
  tftpboot 0x82000000 openwrt.bin
  bootm 0x82000000

From this intiramfs boot you can take a backup of the currently installed
partitions as no vendor firmware is available for download.

Once booted, transfer the sysupgrade image and run sysupgrade.

LTE Modem
=========

The LTE modem is probably the same as in the MF283+, all instructions
apply.

Configuring the connection using modemmanager works properly, the modem
provides three serial ports and a QMI CDC ethernet interface.

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.

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.

ath79: mikrotik: update kernel on NAND using Yafut
Instead of erasing the entire NAND partition holding the kernel during
every system upgrade and then flashing a Yaffs file system image
prepared using kernel2minor (not accounting for bad blocks in the
process), use the Yafut utility to replace the kernel executable on
MikroTik NAND devices, preserving the existing Yaffs file system
(including bad block information) on the partition holding the kernel.

Add Yafut to DEFAULT_PACKAGES for the ath79/mikrotik target, so that the
tool is included in the initramfs images created when building for
multiple profiles.  However, exclude Yafut from the images built for
MikroTik devices with NOR flash as the tool is currently only meant to
be used on devices with NAND flash.

As this addresses the concerns for MikroTik NAND devices discussed in
commit 9d96b6fb72 ("ath79/mikrotik: disable building NAND images"),
re-enable building images for these devices.

e11d00d44c ath79: create Aruba AP-105 APBoot compatible image
Alter the Aruba AP-105 image generation process so OpenWrt can be loaded
with the vendor Aruba APBoot.

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.

The same modification is most likely also possible for the Aruba AP-175.

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-105.
   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 ap105.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 "ap105.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.

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.

0eebc6f0dd ath79: support Ruckus ZoneFlex 7341/7343/7363
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

Forward-port from ar71xx target the board introduced in commit
eb9e3651dd (" ar71xx: add support for the MikroTik RB911-2Hn/5Hn
boards"). Citing:

The patch adds support for the MikroTik RB911-2Hn (911 Lite2)
and the RB911-5Hn (911 Lite5) boards:

  https://mikrotik.com/product/RB911-2Hn
  https://mikrotik.com/product/RB911-5Hn

The two boards are using the same hardware design, the only difference
between the two is the supported wireless band.

Specifications:
  * SoC: Atheros AR9344 (600MHz)
  * RAM: 64MiB
  * Storage: 16 MiB SPI NOR flash
  * Ethernet: 1x100M (Passive PoE in)
  * Wireless: AR9344 built-in wireless MAC, single chain
              802.11b/g/n (911-2Hn) or 802.11a/g/n (911-5Hn)

Notes:
  * Older versions of these boards might be equipped with a NAND
    flash chip instead of the SPI NOR device. Those boards are not
    supported (yet).[1]
  * The MikroTik RB911-5HnD (911 Lite5 Dual) board also uses the
    same hardware. Support for that can be added later with little
    effort probably.[2]

Specification:
	- SOC: QCA9563 (775MHz)
	- Flash: 16 MiB
	- RAM: 128 MiB DDR2
	- Ethernet: 4x 1Gbps LAN + 1x 1Gbps WAN
	- Wireless: QCA9563(2.4GHz) and QCA9886(5GHz)
	- SIM: 2x SIM card slots
	- MicroSD: 1x microSD slot
	- Antenna: 2x external 5dBi antennas

	- LED: 16x LEDs (3x GPIO controllable)
	- UART: 1x UART on PCB (JP1: 3.3V, RX, TX, GND)
	- OEM U-Boot supplies HTTP/GUI access

Implementation Notes
====================

Both the NOR and NAND variants boot off a NOR-based kernel,
consistent with the OEM's firmware.

The mode LEDs are
    * Boot, Running   system
    * Failsafe        2G
    * Upgrade         5G

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

Using sysupgrade
----------------

sysupgrade may be used to install a NAND image on a device running
a NAND image or a NOR image on a device running a NOR image. It is
recommended to *not* preserve config when upgrading from OEM firmware
or previous versions of OpenWrt. No supported sysupgrade path should
require "force". Transitioning from NOR to NAND can be accomplished

Using U-Boot
------------

The OEM U-Boot can be put into a graphical, firmware-upload mode by
holding down the button on the side of the router while applying power
and for a bit more than five seconds following with the current OEM
U-Boot. The power LED will come on, then the 5G LED will flash five
times, about once a second.  When the 5G LED stops flashing and the
2G LED lights solid, the router's U-Boot will provide an upload page
at http://192.168.1.1/ Either a browser may be used to upload an image,
or a utility such as curl may be used:

curl -X POST -F gl_firmware=\@*-nand-squashfs-factory.img \
         http://192.168.1.1/index.html
or
    curl -X POST -F gl_firmware=\@*-nor-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin \
         http://192.168.1.1/index.html

Note that NOR vs. NAND is based on the file name extension.

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

  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));

2. Enable control green status LED and change default LED behaviors.
   The three LEDs of LBA-047-CH are in the same position, and the green
   LED will be completely covered by the other two LEDs. So don's use
   green LED as WAN indicator to ensure that only one LED is on at a time.

   green   internet okay    run
   red     boot             boot
3. Reduce the SPI clock to 30 MHz because the ath79 target does not
   support 50 MHz SPI operation well. Keep the fast-read support to
   ensure the spi-mem feature (b3f9842330) is enabled.
4. Remove unused package "uboot-envtools".
5. Split the factory image into two parts: rootfs and kernel.
   This change can reduce the factory image size and allow users to
   upgrade the OpenWrt kernel loader uImage (OKLI) independently.

   The new installation method: First, rename "squashfs-kernel.bin" to
   "openwrt-ar71xx-generic-ap147-16M-kernel.bin" and rename "rootfs.bin"
   to "openwrt-ar71xx-generic-ap147-16M-rootfs-squashfs.bin". Then we
   can press reset button for about 5 seconds to enter tftp download mode.
   Finally, set IP address to 192.168.67.100 and upload the above two
   parts via tftp server.

  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 EWS660AP 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-ews660ap-uImage-lzma.bin
    openwrt-ar71xx-generic-ews660ap-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

FCC ID: U2M-CAP4100AG

Fortinet FAP-221-B is an indoor access point with
1 Gb ethernet port, dual-band wireless,
internal antenna plates, and 802.3at PoE+

Hardware and board design from Senao

**Specification:**

 - AR9344 SOC		2G 2x2, 5G 2x2, 25 MHz CLK
 - AR9382 WLAN		2G 2x2 PCIe, 40 MHz CLK
 - AR8035-A PHY		RGMII, PoE+ IN, 25 MHz CLK
 - 16 MB FLASH		MX25L12845EMI-10G
 - 2x 32 MB RAM		W9725G6JB-25
 - UART at J11		populated, 9600 baud
 - 6 LEDs, 1 button	power, ethernet, wlan, reset

  Note:	ethernet LEDs are not enabled
	because a new netifd hotplug is required
	in order to operate like OEM.
	Board has 1 amber and 1 green
	for each of the 3 case viewports.

**MAC addresses:**

1 MAC Address in flash at end of uboot
ASCII encoded, no delimiters
Labeled as "MAC Address" on case
OEM firmware sets offsets 1 and 8 for wlan

  eth0 *:1e	uboot 0x3ff80
  phy0 *:1f	uboot 0x3ff80 +1
  phy1 *:26	uboot 0x3ff80 +8

**Serial Access:**

Pinout: (arrow) VCC GND RX TX

Pins are populated with a header and traces not blocked.
Bootloader is set to 9600 baud, 8 data, 1 stop.

**Console Access:**

Bootloader:

Interrupt boot with Ctrl+C
Press "k" and enter password "1"
OR
Hold reset button for 5 sec during power on
Interrupt the TFTP transfer with Ctrl+C

to print commands available, enter "help"

OEM:

default username is "admin", password blank
telnet is available at default address 192.168.1.2
serial is available with baud 9600

to print commands available, enter "help"
or tab-tab (busybox list of commands)

**Installation:**

Use factory.bin with OEM upgrade procedures
OR
Use initramfs.bin with uboot TFTP commands.
Then perform a sysupgrade with sysupgrade.bin

**TFTP Recovery:**

Using serial console, load initramfs.bin using TFTP
to boot openwrt without touching the flash.
TFTP is not reliable due to bugged bootloader,
set MTU to 600 and try many times.
If your TFTP server supports setting block size,
higher block size is better.
Splitting the file into 1 MB parts may be necessary

example:

$ tftpboot 0x80100000 image1.bin
$ tftpboot 0x80200000 image2.bin
$ tftpboot 0x80300000 image3.bin
$ tftpboot 0x80400000 image4.bin
$ tftpboot 0x80500000 image5.bin
$ tftpboot 0x80600000 image6.bin
$ bootm 0x80100000

**Return to OEM:**

The best way to return to OEM firmware
is to have a copy of the MTD partitions
before flashing Openwrt.

Backup copies should be made of partitions
"fwconcat0", "loader", and "fwconcat1"
which together is the same flash range
as OEM's "rootfs" and "uimage"
by loading an initramfs.bin
and using LuCI to download the mtdblocks.

It is also possible to extract from the
OEM firmware upgrade image by splitting it up
in parts of lengths that correspond
to the partitions in openwrt
and write them to flash,
after gzip decompression.

After writing to the firmware partitions,
erase the "reserved" partition and reboot.

**OEM firmware image format:**

Images from Fortinet for this device
ending with the suffix .out
are actually a .gz file

The gzip metadata stores the original filename
before compression, which is a special string
used to verify the image during OEM upgrade.

After gzip decompression, the resulting file
is an exact copy of the MTD partitions
"rootfs" and "uimage" combined in the same order and size
that they appear in /proc/mtd and as they are on flash.

OEM upgrade is performed by a customized busybox
with the command "upgrade".
Another binary, "restore"
is a wrapper for busybox's "tftp" and "upgrade".

d9566d059c ath79: add support for KuWFi C910
KuWFi C910 is an 802.11n (300N) indoor router with LTE support.

I can't find anywhere the OEM firmware. So if you want to restore the
original firmware you must do a dump before the OpenWrt flash.

According to the U-Boot, the board name is Iyunlink MINI_V2.

Hardware
--------
SoC:   Qualcomm QCA9533 650/400/200/25/25 MHz (CPU/RAM/AHB/SPI/REF)
RAM:   128 MB DDR2 16-bit CL3-4-4-10 (Nanya NT5TU64M16HG-AC)
FLASH: 16 MB Winbond W25Q128
ETH:
  - 2x 100M LAN (QCA9533 internal AR8229 switch, eth0)
  - 1x 100M WAN (QCA9533 internal PHY, eth1)
WIFI:
  - 2.4GHz: 1x QCA9533 2T2R (b/g/n)
  - 2 external non detachable antennas (near the power barrel side)
LTE:
  - Quectel EC200T-EU (or -CN or -AU depending on markets)
  - 2 external non detachable antennas (near the sim slot side)
BTN:
  - 1x Reset button
LEDS:
  - 5x White leds (Power, Wifi, Wan, Lan1, Lan2)
  - 1x RGB led (Internet)
UART: 115200-8-N-1 (Starting from lan ports in order: GND, RX, TX, VCC)

Everything works correctly.

MAC Addresses
-------------
LAN XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:48 (art@0x1002)
WAN XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:49 (art@0x1002 + 1)
WIFI XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:48

LABEL XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:48

Installation
------------
Turn the router on while pressing the reset button for 4 seconds.
You can simply count the flashes of the first lan led. (See notes)
If done correctly you should see the first lan led glowing slowly and
you should be able to enter the U-Boot web interface.

Click on the second tab ("固件") and select the -factory.bin firmware
then click "Update firmware".

A screen "Update in progress" should appear.

After few minutes the flash should be completed.

This procedure can be used also to recover the router in case of soft
brick.

Backup the original firmware
----------------------------
The following steps are intended for a linux pc. However using the
right software this guide should also work for Windows and MacOS.

1) Install a tftp server on your pc. For example tftpd-hpa.

2) Create two empty files in your tftp folder called:
	kuwfi_c910_all_nor.bin
	kuwfi_c910_firmware_only.bin

3) Give global write permissions to these files:
	chmod 666 kuwfi_c910_all_nor.bin
	chmod 666 kuwfi_c910_firmware_only.bin

4) Start a netcat session on your pc with this command:
	nc -u -p 6666 192.168.1.1 6666

5) Set the static address on your pc: 192.168.1.2. Connect the router
	to your pc.

6) Turn the router on while pressing the reset button for 8-9 seconds.
	You can simply count the flashes of the first lan led. If you
	press the reset button for too many seconds it will continue
	the normal boot, so you have to restart the router. (See notes)

7) If done correctly you should see the U-Boot network console and you
	should see the following lines on the netcat session:
Version and build date:
  U-Boot 1.1.4-55f1bca8-dirty, 2020-05-07

Modification by:
  Piotr Dymacz <piotr@dymacz.pl>
  https://github.com/pepe2k/u-boot_mod

u-boot>

8) Start the transfer of the whole NOR:
	tftpput 0x9f000000 0x1000000 kuwfi_c910_all_nor.bin

9) The router should start the transfer and it should end with a
	message like this (pay attention to the bytes transferred):
TFTP transfer complete!

Bytes transferred: 16777216 (0x1000000)

10) Repeat the same transfer for the firmware:
	tftpput 0x9f050000 0xfa0000 kuwfi_c910_firmware_only.bin

11) The router should start the transfer and it should end with a
	message like this (pay attention to the bytes transferred):
TFTP transfer complete!

Bytes transferred: 16384000 (0xfa0000)

12) Now you have the backup for the whole nor and for the firmware
	partition. If you want to restore the OEM firmware from OpenWrt
	you have to flash the kuwfi_c910_firmware_only.bin from the
	U-Boot web interface.

	WARNING: Don't use the kuwfi_c910_all_nor.bin file. This file
	is only useful if you manage to	hard brick the router or you
	damage the art partition (ask on the forum)

Notes
-----
This router (or at least my unit) has the pepe2k's U-Boot. It's a
modded U-Boot version with a lot of cool features. You can read more
here: https://github.com/pepe2k/u-boot_mod

With this version of U-Boot, pushing the reset button while turning on
the router starts different tools:
 - 3-5 seconds: U-Boot web interface that can be used to replace the
 	firmware, the art or the U-Boot itself
 - 5-7 seconds: U-Boot uart console
 - 7-10 seconds: U-Boot network console
 - 11+ seconds: Normal boot

The LTE modem can be used in cdc_ether (ECM) or RNDIS mode.
The default mode is ECM and in this commit only the ECM software is
included. In order to set RNDIS mode you must use this AT command:
	AT+QCFG="usbnet",3
In order to use again the ECM mode you must use this AT command:
	AT+QCFG="usbnet",1

Look for "Quectel_EC200T_Linux_USB_Driver_User_Guide_V1.0.pdf" for
other AT commands

3c1512a25d ath79: optimize the firmware recipe for Netgear NAND devices
1. Drop useless character '0xff' before fake filesystem header.
2. Reduce useless padding to shrink the size of the sysupgrade image.
3. Do not check the size of sysupgrade image. It does not make sense to
   check the size of a compressed package.
4. Do not take the size of netgear header into account because it will
   not be written to Flash.
5. Use the default lzma compression dictionary parameter '-d24' to get
   better performance.

Tested on Netgear R6100
