496280ef4e ath79: add missing symbols by refreshing kernel configs
Some symbols are outdated or missing due to daily kernel bumps. It's
better to re-add them. All configs are automatically refreshed by
'make kernel_oldconfig CONFIG_TARGET=taget' and
'make kernel_oldconfig CONFIG_TARGET=subtarget'

766de7013f ath79: allow skipping hash for Senao sysupgrade
Some vendors of Senao boards have a similar flash layout
situation that causes the need to split the firmware partition
and use the lzma-loader, but do not store
checksums of the partitions or otherwise
do not even have a uboot environment partition.

This adds simple shell logic to skip that part.

Also, simplify some lines and variable usage.

f54ac98f8c ath79: add low_mem to tiny image
Devices with SMALL_FLASH enabled have "SQUASHFS_BLOCK_SIZE=1024" in
their config. This significantly increases the cache memory required by
squashfs [0]. This commit enables low_mem leading to a much better
performance because the SQUASHFS_BLOCK_SIZE is reduced to 256.

The image size increases by 128 KiB. However, the memory statisitcs look
much better:

f4415f7635 ath79: move ubnt-xm to tiny
ath79 has was bumped to 5.10. With this, as with every kernel change,
the kernel has become larger. However, although the kernel gets bigger,
there are still enough flash resources. But the RAM reaches its capacity
limits. The tiny image comes with fewer kernel flags enabled and
fewer daemons.

44e1e5d153 ath79: Move TPLink WPA8630Pv2 to ath79-tiny target
These devices only have 6MiB available for firmware, which is not
enough for recent release images, so move these to the tiny target.

Note for users sysupgrading from the previous ath79-generic snapshot
images:

The tiny target kernel has a 4Kb flash erase block size instead
of the generic target's 64kb. This means the JFFS2 overlay partition
containing settings must be reformatted with the new block size or else
there will be data corruption.

To do this, backup your settings before upgrading, then during the
sysupgrade, de-select "Keep Settings". On the CLI, use "sysupgrade -n".

If you forget to do this and your system becomes unstable after
upgrading, you can do this to format the partition and recover:

* Reboot
* Press RESET when Power LED blinks during boot to enter Failsafe mode
* SSH to 192.168.1.1
* Run "firstboot" and reboot

d5035f0d26 ath79: add Senao 'failsafe' sysupgrade procedure
Use a similar upgrade method for sysupgrade.bin, like factory.bin,
for Senao boards with the tar.gz OEM upgrade platform,
and 'failsafe' image which is loaded on checksum failure.

This is inspired by the OEM upgrade script /etc/fwupgrade.sh
and the existing platforms for dual-boot Senao boards.

Previously, if the real kernel was damaged or missing
the only way to recover was with UART serial console,
because the OKLI lzma-loader is programmed to halt.

uboot did not detect cases where kernel or rootfs is damaged
and boots OKLI instead of the failsafe image,
because the checksums stored in uboot environment
did not include the real kernel and rootfs space.

Now, the stored checksums include the space for both
the lzma-loader, kernel, and rootfs.
Therefore, these boards are now practically unbrickable.

Also, the factory.bin and sysupgrade.bin are now the same,
except for image metadata.
This allows for flashing OEM image directly from openwrt
as well as flashing openwrt image directly from OEM.

Make 'loader' partition writable so that it can be updated
during a sysupgrade.

So far, board.d files were having execute bit set and contained a
shebang. However, they are just sourced in board_detect, with an
apparantly unnecessary check for execute permission beforehand.

Replace this check by one for existance and make the board.d files
"normal" files, as would be expected in /etc anyway.

This removes an apparantly unused '#!/bin/sh /etc/rc.common' in

2a26cb51fe ath79: enable Regulator support for target
Regulator support was enabled on all subtargets except for ath79-nand.
With Kernel 5.10, AT803x requires Regulator support, thus enabling on
the complete target, as ath79-nand requires AT803x.

While this is only required on Kernel 5.10, enable it also on 5.4. We
have no major size-constraint, so enabling it on 5.4 allows us to clean
up the occurences in the subtarget configuration.

0070650df4 ath79: move small-flash Engenius boards to tiny
This moves some of the Engenius boards from generic to tiny:

 - EAP350 v1
 - ECB350 v1
 - ENH202 v1

For these, factory.bin builds are already failing on master
branch because of the unique situation for these boards:

 - 8 MB flash
 - an extra "failsafe" image for recovery
 - TFTP does not work (barely possible with 600 MTU)
 - bootloader loads image from a longer flash offset
 - 1 eraseblock each needed for OKLI kernel loader and fake rootfs
 - using mtd-concat to make use of remaining space...

The manual alternative would be removing the failsafe partition.
However this comes with the risk of extremely difficult recovery
if a flash ever fails because TFTP on the bootloader is bugged.

6f96a4d043 ath79: remove model name from LED labels
Currently, we request LED labels in OpenWrt to follow the scheme

  modelname:color:function

However, specifying the modelname at the beginning is actually
entirely useless for the devices we support in OpenWrt. On the
contrary, having this part actually introduces inconvenience in
several aspects:

  - We need to ensure/check consistency with the DTS compatible
  - We have various exceptions where not the model name is used,
    but the vendor name (like tp-link), which is hard to track
    and justify even for core-developers
  - Having model-based components will not allow to share
    identical LED definitions in DTSI files
  - The inconsistency in what's used for the model part complicates
    several scripts, e.g. board.d/01_leds or LED migrations from
    ar71xx where this was even more messy

Apart from our needs, upstream has deprecated the label property
entirely and introduced new properties to specify color and
function properties separately. However, the implementation does
not appear to be ready and probably won't become ready and/or
match our requirements in the foreseeable future.

However, the limitation of generic LEDs to color and function
properties follows the same idea pointed out above. Generic LEDs
will get names like "green:status" or "red:indicator" then, and
if a "devicename" is prepended, it will be the one of an internal
device, like "phy1:amber:status".

With this patch, we move into the same direction, and just drop
the boardname from the LED labels. This allows to consolidate
a few definitions in DTSI files (will be much more on ramips),
and to drop a few migrations compared to ar71xx that just changed
the boardname. But mainly, it will liberate us from a completely
useless subject to take care of for device support review and
maintenance.
To also drop the boardname from existing configurations, a simple
migration routine is added unconditionally.

Although this seems unfamiliar at first look, a quick check in kernel
for the arm/arm64 dts files revealed that while 1033 lines have
labels with three parts *:*:*, still 284 actually use a two-part
labelling *:*, and thus is also acceptable and not even rare there.

- RAM: 32 MiB
- Ethernet: 1 port @ 100M
- Wireless: SoC-integrated: QCA9533 2.4GHz 802.11bgn

In contrast to the implementation in ar71xx (reset and WiFi button),
the device actually features reset and WPS buttons.

Flashing instructions:

Upload the ...-factory.bin file via OEM web interface.

TFTP Recovery:

1. Set PC to fixed IP address 192.168.0.66
2. Download *-factory.bin image and rename it to
   wa801ndv3_tp_recovery.bin
3. Start a tftp server with the image file in its root directory
4. Turn off the router
5. Press and hold Reset button
6. Turn on router with the reset button pressed and wait ~15 seconds
7. Release the reset button and after a short time
   the firmware should be transferred from the tftp server
8. Wait ~30 second to complete recovery.

TFTP recovery has only been tested with v3, and the Wiki states
that the procedure won't work for v4, which cannot be verified
or falsified at the moment.

7e513136c6 ath79: add support for TP-Link TL-WR802N V1 and V2
Specification:
- SoC: Qualcomm Atheros QCA9533 (560 MHz, MIPS 24Kc)
- RAM: 32 MiB
- Storage: 4 MiB of Flash on board
- Wireless: Built into QCA9533 (Honey Bee), PHY modes b/g/n
- Ethernet: 1x100M (port0)

Installation through OEM Web Interface:
- Connect to TL-WR802N by Ethernet or Wi-Fi
- Go to web interface:
  [V1] http://192.168.0.1
  [V2] http://192.168.0.254
  Default user is "admin" & password is "admin".
  On V2, there is no DHCP server running by default, so remember to set
  IP manually.
- Go to "System Tools -> Firmware Upgrade"
- Browse for firmware:
  [V1] "*.factory.bin"
  [V2] "*.factory-us.bin" or  "*.factory-eu.bin" for eu model
  Web interface may complain if filename is too long. In such case,
  rename .bin to something shorter.
- Click upgrade

Installation through tftp:
Note: T_OUT, T_IN and GND on the board must be connected to USB TTL
      Serial Configuration 115200 8n1

- Boot the TL-WR802N
- When "Autobooting in 1 seconds" appears type "tpl" followed by enter
- Connect to the board Ethernet port
    (IPADDR: 192.168.1.1, ServerIP: 192.168.1.10)
- tftpboot 0x80000000 <Firmware Image Name>
- Record the result of "printenv bootcmd"
- Enter "erase <Result of 'printenv bootcmd'> +0x3c0000"
    (e.g erase 0x9f020000 +0x3c0000)
- Enter "cp.b 0x80000000 <Result of 'printenv bootcmd'> 0x3c0000"
    (e.g cp.b 0x80000000 0x9f020000 0x3c0000)
- Enter "bootm <Result of 'printenv bootcmd'>"
    (e.g bootm 0x9f020000)

Notes:

When porting from ar71xx target to ath79, I found out that on V2,
reset button is on GPIO12 and active low, instead of GPIO11 and
active high. By cross-flashing V1 firmware to V2, I confirmed
the same is true for V1.
Also according to manual of V1, this one also has green
LED instead of blue - both of those issues were fixed accordingly.

The MAC address assignment has been checked with OEM firmware.

  1. Set PC to fixed ip address 192.168.0.66
  2. Download *-factory.bin image and rename it to * (see below)
  3. Start a tftp server with the image file in its root directory

  * The image name for TFTP recovery is wa901ndv4_tp_recovery.bin for

In ar71xx, a MAC address with offset 1 was used for ethernet port.
That's probably wrong, but this commit sticks to it until we know
the correct value.

supported in fb99ac6807 ("ath79: add support for TP-Link TL-WA830RE v1"):

- tplink,tl-wa701nd-v1
- tplink,tl-wa730re-v1
- tplink,tl-wa801nd-v1
- tplink,tl-wa830re-v1 (already supported)
- tplink,tl-wa901nd-v1

Since these devices are 100%-clones in ar71xx, this patch adds all
of them without run-testing (as this has been done for TL-WA830RE v1).

Specifications:
- SOC: Atheros AR7240
- CPU: 400MHz
- Flash: 4 MiB (Spansion S25FL032P)
- RAM: 32 MiB (Zentel A3S56D40FTP-G5)
- WLAN: Atheros AR9280 bgn 2x2
- Ethernet: 1 port (100M)

Flash instructions:
- install from u-boot with tftp (requires serial access)
  > setenv ipaddr a.b.c.d
  > setenv serverip e.f.g.h
  > tftpboot 0x80000000 \

fbd00bb8d4 ath79: add support for TP-Link TL-WR940N v6
The TL-WR940N v6 is similar to v3/v4, it just has different
LEDs and MAC address assignment.

Specification:
- 750 MHz CPU
- 32 MB of RAM
- 4 MB of FLASH
- 2.4 GHz WiFi
- 4x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet

The use of LEDs is based on ar71xx, so blue LED is used for WAN
and orange LED for diag (boot/failsafe/etc.).

Flash instruction (WebUI):
Download *-factory.bin image and upload it via the firmwary upgrade
function of the stock firmware WebUI.

Flash instruction (TFTP):
1. Set PC to fixed ip address 192.168.0.66
2. Download *-factory.bin image and rename it to
   wr940nv6_tp_recovery.bin
3. Start a tftp server with the image file in its root directory
4. Turn off the router
5. Press and hold Reset button
6. Turn on router with the reset button pressed and wait ~15 seconds
7. Release the reset button and after a short time
the firmware should be transferred from the tftp server
8. Wait ~30 second to complete recovery.

Thanks to Manuel Kock for reviewing and testing this patch.

a66a1eb9c5 ath79: add support for TP-Link TL-WA850RE v2
TP-Link TL-WA850RE v2 is a wall-plug N300 Wi-Fi range extender,
based on Qualcomm/Atheros QCA9533 v2.

Short specification:

- 550/391/195 MHz (CPU/DDR/AHB)
- 1x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
- 32 MB of RAM (DDR1)
- 4 MB of FLASH
- 2T2R 2.4 GHz
- 2x internal antennas (embedded on PCB)
- 9x LED (all can be turned off with GPIO15), 2x button
- UART (J3) header on PCB

Flash instruction: use "factory" image directly in vendor GUI.

Warning: this device does not include any kind of recovery mechanism
in the bootloader and disassembling process is not trivial.

You can access vendor firmware over serial line using:
- login: root
- password: sohoadmin

Stock firmware uses label MAC address for WiFi and same with local
bit set for ethernet. Since this is difficult to reproduce with
the toolset of OpenWrt, we just keep both ethernet and WiFi to
the same address here.

This is the first tiny device with tplink-safeloader in ath79.
Firmware partition is only 3648k and thus even smaller than for
the tplink-4m(lzma) devices.

This ports support for the TL-WA850RE v1 range extender from ar71xx
to ath79.

Specifications:
  Board: AP123 / AR9341 rev. 3
  Flash/RAM: 4/32 MiB
  CPU: 535 MHz
  WiFi: 2.4 GHz b/g/n
  Ethernet: 1 port (100M)

Flashing instructions:
Upload the factory image via the vendor firmware upgrade option.

Recovery:
Note that this device does not provide TFTP via ethernet like many
other TP-Link devices do. You will have to open the case if you
require recovery beyond failsafe.

05d35403b2 ath79-tiny: enable 4k sectors
This enables using 4kiB sectors as erase blocks for 4MiB NOR flash ICs
that support it.

Writeable jffs2 overlay used to store settings requires a partition with
at least 5 erase blocks, so using small sectors is essential for devices
with 4MiB flash.

Sysupgrading a device running firmware without this feature will likely
not allow to preserve configs automatically but since ath79 is
considered to be in a "technology preview" state it shouldn't be a
problem.

- Buttons: 2x tactile switches
- UART: 3.3 V, 115200 8n1
- USB: simple hardware modification required, 1x USB 1.1 Full Speed

Partitioning notes:

Vendor firmware (based on CameoAP99) defines two additional partitions:
"mac" @0x3b0000, size 0x10000 and "lp" @0x3c0000, size 0x30000.

The "mac" partition stores LAN MAC address and hardware board name.
However, the vendor firmware uses addresses from "nvram" partition, and
the board name is used only for informational purposes in the Web
interface (included in the pages' header), not affecting the firmware
image check.

The "lp" partition is supposed to contain a "language pack" (which can
be used to add an additional language support to the Web interface) and
is flashed separately, using the vendor firmware upgrade page.

Since these partitions are absolutely useless for OpenWrt and
overwriting them doesn't prevent downgrading to obsolete vendor
firmware, this patch appends the valueable space to "firmware".

Installation instructions:

- Upgrade from OpenWrt ar71xx with "sysupgrade -f -n"
or
- Upload as a firmware update via the vendor Web-interface
or
- Connect UART and use "loady" to upload and run OpenWrt initramfs
  image, then sysupgrade from it (TFTP client doesn't work)
or
- Before powering up hold "reset" button and keep it pressed for about
  15 seconds after, then access fail safe Web server on 192.168.0.1 (the
  old uIP TCP/IP protocol stack is not compatible with modern Linux, the
  kernel, so you'll need to use some other OS to do this). Can be
  performed without a Web-browser too:
    curl http://192.168.0.1/cgi/index \
      -F Send=@openwrt-ath79-tiny-dlink_dir-615-e4-squashfs-factory.bin

08a134820f ath79: enable PCI for whole target
This commit adds PCI support for the whole ath79 target. Previously,
this was only done in the generic and tiny subtargets.

With the introduction of the HiveAP-121, PCI will be a requirement for
all subtargets, thus moving PCI support to the target configuration.

0130022bae ath79: split base-files into subtargets
While most of the target's contents are split into subtargets, the
base-files are maintained for the target as a whole.

However, OpenWrt already implements a mechanism that will use (and
even prefer) files in the subtargets' directories. This can be
exploited to make several scripts subtarget-specific and thus save
some space (especially helpful for the tiny devices).

The only script remaining in parent base-files is
/etc/hotplug.d/ieee80211/00-wifi-migration, everything else is
moved/split.

Note that this will increase overall code lines, but reduce code
per subtarget.

base-files ipk size reduction:
master (generic)   49135 B
split (generic)    48533 B (- 0.6 kiB)
split (tiny)       43337 B (- 5.7 kiB)
split (nand)       44423 B (- 4.6 kiB)

Tested on TL-WR1043ND v4 (generic) and TL-WR841N v12 (tiny).

cf7154db07 kernel: only optimized for size if small_flash
Add a new config option to allow to select the default compile
optimization level for the kernel.

Select the optimization for size by default if the small_flash feature is
set. Otherwise "Optimize for performance" is set.

Add the small_flash feature flag to all (sub)targets which had the
optimization for size in their default kernel config.

Remove CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_* symbols from all kernel configs to apply the new
setting.

Exceptions to the above are:

  - lantiq, where the optimization for size is only required for the
    xway_legacy subtarget but was set for the whole target
  - mediatek, ramips/mt7620 & ramips/mt76x8 where boards should have
    plenty of space and an optimization for size doesn't make much sense
  - rb532, which has 128MByte flash
