1330816178 ramips: add support for H3C TX1800 Plus / TX1801 Plus / TX1806
H3C TX180x series WiFi6 routers are customized by different carrier.
While these three devices look different, they use the same motherboard
inside. Another minor difference comes from the model name definition
in the u-boot environment variable.

Specifications:

 RAM:      256 MiB
 LED:      status *2

 WiFi6_5G   8a:xx:xx:78:xx:14   8a:xx:xx:72:xx:a7

Compatibility mode is used to guarantee the connection of old devices
that only support WiFi4 or WiFi5.

TFTP + TTL Installation:
Although a TTL connection is required for installation, we do not need
to tear down it. We can find the TTL port from the cooling hole at the
bottom. It is located below LAN3 and the pins are defined as follows:
|LAN1|LAN2|LAN3|----|WAN|
--------------------
    |GND|TX|RX|VCC|

1. Set tftp server IP to 192.168.124.99 and put initramfs firmware in
   server's root directory, rename it to a simple name "initramfs.bin".
2. Plug in the power supply and wait for power on, connect the TTL cable
   and open a TTL session, enter "reboot", then enter "Y" to confirm.
   Finally push "0" to interruput boot while booting.
3. Execute command to install a initramfs system:
   # tftp 0x80010000 192.168.124.99:initramfs.bin
   # bootm 0x80010000
4. Backup nand flash by OpenWrt LuCI or dd instruction. We need those
   partitions if we want to back to stock firmwre due to official
   website does not provide download link.
   # dd if=/dev/mtd1 of=/tmp/u-boot-env.bin
   # dd if=/dev/mtd4 of=/tmp/firmware.bin
5. Edit u-boot env to ensure use default bootargs and first image slot:
   # fw_setenv bootargs
   # fw_setenv bootflag 0
6. Upgrade sysupgrade firmware.
7. About restore stock firmware: flash the "firmware" and "u-boot-env"
   partitions that we backed up in step 4.
   # mtd write /tmp/u-boot-env.bin u-boot-env
   # mtd write /tmp/firmware.bin firmware

Additional Info:
The H3C stock firmware has a 160-byte firmware header that appears to
use a non-standard CRC32 verification algorithm. For this part of the
data, the u-boot does not check it so we can just directly replace it
with a placeholder.

Installation
-----------------
1. Downgrade stock (Beeline) firmware to v.1.0.02;
2. Give factory OpenWrt image a shorter name, e.g. 1001.img;
3. Upload and update the firmware via the original web interface.

Remark: You might need make the 3rd step twice if your running firmware
is booted from the Slot 1 (Sercomm0 bootflag). The stock firmware
reverses the bootflag (Sercomm0 / Sercomm1) on each firmware update.

Revert to stock
---------------
1. Change the bootflag to Sercomm1 in OpenWrt CLI and then reboot:
      printf 1 | dd bs=1 seek=7 count=1 of=/dev/mtdblock3
2. Optional: Update with any stock (Beeline) firmware if you want to
   overwrite OpenWrt in Slot 0 completely.

      sercomm-payload.py - already exists in OpenWrt
      sercomm-pid.py - new, the part of this pull request
      sercomm-kernel-header.py - new, the part of this pull request
2. This device (same as other Sercomm S2,S3-based devices) requires
   special LZMA and LOADADDR settings for successful boot:
      LZMA_TEXT_START=0x82800000
      KERNEL_LOADADDR=0x81001000
      LOADADDR=0x80001000
3. This device (same as several other Sercomm-based devices - Beeline,
   Netgear, Etisalat, Rostelecom) has partition map (mtd1) containing
   real partition offsets, which may differ from device to device
   depending on the number and location of bad blocks on NAND.
   "fixed-partitions" is used if the partition map is not found or
   corrupted. This behavour (it's the same as on stock firmware) is
   provided by MTD_SERCOMM_PARTS module.

Power: 12 VDC, 1 A
Connector type: Barrel
Bootloader: U-Boot (Ralink UBoot Version: 5.0.0.2)
OEM: Arcadyan WG430223

Installation
------------
1. Login to the router web interface (superadmin:serial number)
2. Navigate to Administration -> Miscellaneous -> Access control lists &
   enable telnet & enable "Remote control from any IP address"
3. Connect to the router using telnet (default admin:admin)
4. Place *factory.trx on any web server (192.168.1.2 in this example)
5. Connect to the router using telnet shell (no password required)
6. Save MAC adresses to U-Boot environment:
   uboot_env --set --name eth2macaddr --value $(ifconfig | grep eth2 | \
    awk '{print $5}')
   uboot_env --set --name eth3macaddr --value $(ifconfig | grep eth3 | \
    awk '{print $5}')
   uboot_env --set --name ra0macaddr --value $(ifconfig | grep ra0 | \
    awk '{print $5}')
   uboot_env --set --name rax0macaddr --value $(ifconfig | grep rax0 | \
    awk '{print $5}')
7. Ensure that MACs were saved correctly:
   uboot_env --get --name eth2macaddr
   uboot_env --get --name eth3macaddr
   uboot_env --get --name ra0macaddr
   uboot_env --get --name rax0macaddr
8. Download and write the OpenWrt images:
   cd /tmp
   wget http://192.168.1.2/factory.trx
   mtd_write erase /dev/mtd4
   mtd_write write factory.trx /dev/mtd4
9. Set 1st boot partition and reboot:
   uboot_env --set --name bootpartition --value 0

Back to Stock
-------------
1. Run in the OpenWrt shell:
   fw_setenv bootpartition 1
   reboot
2. Optional step. Upgrade the stock firmware with any version to
   overwrite the OpenWrt in Slot 1.

+-----------+-------------------+----------------+
[1]:
a. Label wasb't found neither in factory nor in other places.
b. MAC addresses are stored in encrypted partition "glbcfg". Encryption
   key hasn't known yet. To ensure the correct MACs in OpenWrt, a hack
   with saving of the MACs to u-boot-env during the installation was
   applied.
c. Default Ralink ethernet MAC address (00:0C:43:28:80:A0) was found in
   "Factory" 0xfff0. It's the same for all MTS WG430223 devices. OEM
   firmware also uses this MAC when initialazes ethernet driver. In
   OpenWrt we use it only as internal GMAC (eth0), all other MACs are
   unique. Therefore, there is no any barriers to the operation of several
   MTS WG430223 devices even within the same broadcast domain.

The wan MAC can also be found in 0xe006 but is not used by OEM dtb.

Due to different MAC handling in mt76 the LAA derived from lan is used
for 2g to prevent duplicate MACs when creating multiple interfaces.

Connector type: Barrel
Bootloader: U-Boot (Ralink UBoot Version: 5.0.0.2)
OEM: Arcadyan WE42022

Installation
------------
1. Place *factory.trx on any web server (192.168.1.2 in this example)
2. Connect to the router using telnet shell (no password required)
3. Save MAC adresses to U-Boot environment:
   uboot_env --set --name eth2macaddr --value $(ifconfig | grep eth2 | \
    awk '{print $5}')
   uboot_env --set --name eth3macaddr --value $(ifconfig | grep eth3 | \
    awk '{print $5}')
   uboot_env --set --name ra0macaddr --value $(ifconfig | grep ra0 | \
    awk '{print $5}')
   uboot_env --set --name rax0macaddr --value $(ifconfig | grep rax0 | \
    awk '{print $5}')
4. Ensure that MACs were saved correctly:
   uboot_env --get --name eth2macaddr
   uboot_env --get --name eth3macaddr
   uboot_env --get --name ra0macaddr
   uboot_env --get --name rax0macaddr
5. Download and write the OpenWrt images:
   cd /tmp
   wget http://192.168.1.2/factory.trx
   mtd_write erase /dev/mtd4
   mtd_write write factory.trx /dev/mtd4
6. Set 1st boot partition and reboot:
   uboot_env --set --name bootpartition --value 0
   reboot

Back to Stock
-------------
1. Run in the OpenWrt shell:
   fw_setenv bootpartition 1
   reboot
2. Optional step. Upgrade the stock firmware with any version to
   overwrite the OpenWrt in Slot 1.

MAC addresses
-------------
+-----------+-------------------+----------------+
| Interface | MAC               | Source         |
+-----------+-------------------+----------------+
| label     | 30:xx:xx:51:xx:09 | No MACs was    |
| LAN       | 30:xx:xx:51:xx:09 | found on Flash |
| WAN       | 30:xx:xx:51:xx:06 | [1]            |
| WLAN_2g   | 30:xx:xx:51:xx:07 |                |
| WLAN_5g   | 32:xx:xx:41:xx:07 |                |
+-----------+-------------------+----------------+
[1]:
a. Label wasb't found neither in factory nor in other places.
b. MAC addresses are stored in encrypted partition "glbcfg". Encryption
   key hasn't known yet. To ensure the correct MACs in OpenWrt, a hack
   with saving of the MACs to u-boot-env during the installation was
   applied.
c. Default Ralink ethernet MAC address (00:0C:43:28:80:36) was found in
   "Factory" 0xfff0. It's the same for all Smartbox Flash devices. OEM
   firmware also uses this MAC when initialazes ethernet driver. In
   OpenWrt we use it only as internal GMAC (eth0), all other MACs are
   unique. Therefore, there is no any barriers to the operation of several
   Smartbox Flash devices even within the same broadcast domain.

3343ca7e68 ramips: add support for Xiaomi Mi Router CR660x series
Xiaomi Mi Router CR6606 is a Wi-Fi6 AX1800 Router with 4 GbE Ports.
Alongside the general model, it has three carrier customized models:
CR6606 (China Unicom), CR6608 (China Mobile), CR6609 (China Telecom)

Specifications:
- SoC: MediaTek MT7621AT
- RAM: 256MB DDR3 (ESMT M15T2G16128A)
- Flash: 128MB NAND (ESMT F59L1G81MB)
- Ethernet: 1000Base-T x4 (MT7530 SoC)

- LEDs: System (Blue, Yellow), Internet (Blue, Yellow)
- Buttons: Reset, WPS
- UART: through-hole on PCB ([VCC 3.3v](RX)(GND)(TX) 115200, 8n1)
- Power: 12VDC, 1A

Jailbreak Notes:
1. Get shell access.
   1.1. Get yourself a wireless router that runs OpenWrt already.
   1.2. On the OpenWrt router:
      1.2.1. Access its console.
      1.2.2. Create and edit
             /usr/lib/lua/luci/controller/admin/xqsystem.lua
             with the following code (exclude backquotes and line no.):
```
     1  module("luci.controller.admin.xqsystem", package.seeall)
     2
     3  function index()
     4      local page   = node("api")
     5      page.target  = firstchild()
     6      page.title   = ("")
     7      page.order   = 100
     8      page.index = true
     9      page   = node("api","xqsystem")
    10      page.target  = firstchild()
    11      page.title   = ("")
    12      page.order   = 100
    13      page.index = true
    14      entry({"api", "xqsystem", "token"}, call("getToken"), (""),
103, 0x08)
    15  end
    16
    17  local LuciHttp = require("luci.http")
    18
    19  function getToken()
    20      local result = {}
    21      result["code"] = 0
    22      result["token"] = "; nvram set ssh_en=1; nvram commit; sed -i
's/channel=.*/channel=\"debug\"/g' /etc/init.d/dropbear; /etc/init.d/drop
bear start;"
    23      LuciHttp.write_json(result)
    24  end
```
      1.2.3. Browse http://{OWRT_ADDR}/cgi-bin/luci/api/xqsystem/token
             It should give you a respond like this:
             {"code":0,"token":"; nvram set ssh_en=1; nvram commit; ..."}
             If so, continue; Otherwise, check the file, reboot the rout-
             er, try again.
      1.2.4. Set wireless network interface's IP to 169.254.31.1, turn
             off DHCP of wireless interface's zone.
      1.2.5. Connect to the router wirelessly, manually set your access
             device's IP to 169.254.31.3, make sure
             http://169.254.31.1/cgi-bin/luci/api/xqsystem/token
             still have a similar result as 1.2.3 shows.
   1.3. On the Xiaomi CR660x:
        1.3.1. Login to the web interface. Your would be directed to a
               page with URL like this:
               http://{ROUTER_ADDR}/cgi-bin/luci/;stok={STOK}/web/home#r-
               outer
        1.3.2. Browse this URL with {STOK} from 1.3.1, {WIFI_NAME}
               {PASSWORD} be your OpenWrt router's SSID and password:
               http://{MIROUTER_ADDR}/cgi-bin/luci/;stok={STOK}/api/misy-
               stem/extendwifi_connect?ssid={WIFI_NAME}&password={PASSWO-
               RD}
               It should return 0.
        1.3.3. Browse this URL with {STOK} from 1.3.1:
               http://{MIROUTER_ADDR}/cgi-bin/luci/;stok={STOK}/api/xqsy-
               stem/oneclick_get_remote_token?username=xxx&password=xxx&-
               nonce=xxx
   1.4. Before rebooting, you can now access your CR660x via SSH.
        For CR6606, you can calculate your root password by this project:
        https://github.com/wfjsw/xiaoqiang-root-password, or at
        https://www.oxygen7.cn/miwifi.
        The root password for carrier-specific models should be the admi-
        nistration password or the default login password on the label.
        It is also feasible to change the root password at the same time
        by modifying the script from step 1.2.2.
        You can treat OpenWrt Router however you like from this point as
        long as you don't mind go through this again if you have to expl-
        oit it again. If you do have to and left your OpenWrt router unt-
        ouched, start from 1.3.
2. There's no official binary firmware available, and if you lose the
   content of your flash, no one except Xiaomi can help you.
   Dump these partitions in case you need them:
   "Bootloader" "Nvram" "Bdata" "crash" "crash_log"
   "firmware" "firmware1" "overlay" "obr"
   Find the corespond block device from /proc/mtd
   Read from read-only block device to avoid misoperation.
   It's recommended to use /tmp/syslogbackup/ as destination, since files
   would be available at http://{ROUTER_ADDR}/backup/log/YOUR_DUMP
   Keep an eye on memory usage though.
3. Since UART access is locked ootb, you should get UART access by modify
   uboot env. Otherwise, your router may become bricked.
   Excute these in stock firmware shell:
    a. nvram set boot_wait=on
    b. nvram set bootdelay=3
    c. nvram commit
   Or in OpenWrt:
    a. opkg update && opkg install kmod-mtd-rw
    b. insmod mtd-rw i_want_a_brick=1
    c. fw_setenv boot_wait on
    d. fw_setenv bootdelay 3
    e. rmmod mtd-rw

Migrate to OpenWrt:
 1. Transfer squashfs-firmware.bin to the router.
 2. nvram set flag_try_sys1_failed=0
 3. nvram set flag_try_sys2_failed=1
 4. nvram commit
 5. mtd -r write /path/to/image/squashfs-firmware.bin firmware

Additional Info:
 1. CR660x series routers has a different nand layout compared to other
    Xiaomi nand devices.
 2. This router has a relatively fresh uboot (2018.09) compared to other
    Xiaomi devices, and it is capable of booting fit image firmware.
    Unfortunately, no successful attempt of booting OpenWrt fit image
    were made so far. The cause is still yet to be known. For now, we use
    legacy image instead.

e0a574d4b7 ramips: add support for Linksys EA6350 v4
Specifications:
- SoC: MT7621DAT (880MHz, 2 Cores)
- RAM: 128 MB
- Flash: 128 MB NAND
- Ethernet: 5x 1GiE MT7530
- WiFi: MT7603/MT7613
- USB: 1x USB 3.0

This is another MT7621 device, very similar to other Linksys EA7300
series devices.

Installation:

Upload the generated factory.bin image via the stock web firmware
updater.

Reverting to factory firmware:

Like other EA7300 devices, this device has an A/B router configuration
to prevent bricking.  Hard-resetting this device three (3) times will
put the device in failsafe (default) mode.  At this point, flash the
OEM image to itself and reboot.  This puts the router back into the 'B'
image and allows for a firmware upgrade.

Troubleshooting:

If the firmware will not boot, first restore the factory as described
above.  This will then allow the factory.bin update to be applied
properly.

3c97fb4346 ramips: add support for Xiaomi MiWifi 3C
This commit adds support for Xiaomi MiWiFi 3C device.

Xiaomi MiWifi 3C has almost the same system architecture
as the Xiaomi Mi WiFi Nano, which is already officially
supported by OpenWrt.

The differences are:

 - Numbers of antennas (4 instead of 2). The antenna management
   is done via the µC. There is no configuration needed in the
   software code.
 - LAN port assignments are different. LAN1 and WAN are
   interchanged.

OpenWrt Wiki: https://openwrt.org/toh/xiaomi/mir3c

OpenWrt developers forum page:
https://forum.openwrt.org/t/support-for-xiaomi-mi-3c

Specifications:

 - CPU: MediaTek MT7628AN (575MHz)
 - Flash: 16MB
 - RAM: 64MB DDR2
 - 2.4 GHz: IEEE 802.11b/g/n with Integrated LNA and PA
 - Antennas: 4x external single band antennas
 - WAN: 1x 10/100M
 - LAN: 2x 10/100M
 - LED: 1x amber/blue/red. Programmable
 - Button: Reset

MAC addresses as verified by OEM firmware:

use address source
LAN *:92 factory 0x28
WAN *:92 factory 0x28
2g *:93 factory 0x4

OEM firmware uses VLAN's to create the network interface for WAN and LAN.

Bootloader info:
The stock bootloader uses a "Dual ROM Partition System".
OS1 is a deep copy of OS2.
The bootloader start OS2 by default.
To force start OS1 it is needed to set "flag_try_sys2_failed=1".

How to install:
1- Use OpenWRTInvasion to gain telnet, ssh and ftp access.
   https://github.com/acecilia/OpenWRTInvasion
   (IP: 192.168.31.1 - Username: root - Password: root)
2- Connect to router using telnet or ssh.
3- Backup all partitions. Use command  "dd if=/dev/mtd0 of=/tmp/mtd0".
   Copy /tmp/mtd0 to computer using ftp.
4- Copy openwrt-ramips-mt76x8-xiaomi_miwifi-3c-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
   to /tmp in router using ftp.
5- Enable UART access and change start image for OS1.
```
nvram set uart_en=1
nvram set flag_last_success=1
nvram set boot_wait=on
nvram set flag_try_sys2_failed=1
nvram commit
```
6- Installing Openwrt on OS1 and free OS2.
```
mtd erase OS1
mtd erase OS2
mtd -r write /tmp/openwrt-ramips-mt76x8-xiaomi_miwifi-3c-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin OS1
```

Limitations: For the first install the image size needs to be less
than 7733248 bits.

Specification:
SoC: MT7620A
RAM: 64 MB DDR2
Flash: MX25L6405D SPI NOR 8 MB
WIFI: 2.4 GHz integrated
Ethernet: 5x 10/100/1000 Mbps QCA8337
USB: 1x 2.0
LEDS: 2x GPIO controlled, 5x switch
Buttons: 1x GPIO controlled
UART: row of 4 unpopulated holes near USB port, starting count from

    VCC 3.3V
    GND
    TX
    RX

    baud: 115200, parity: none, flow control: none

Installation

    Connect to one of LAN (yellow) ethernet ports,
    Open router configuration interface,
    Go to Toolbox > Firmware,
    Browse for OpenWrt factory image with dlf extension and hit Apply,
    Wait few minutes, after the Power LED will stop blinking, the router is
    ready for configuration.

Known issues
Some USB 2.0 devices work at full speed mode 1.1 only

MAC addresses

factory partition only contains one (binary) MAC address in 0x4.
u-boot-env contains four (ascii) MAC addresses, of which two appear
to be valid.

  factory     0x4       **:**:**:**:b9:84  binary
  u-boot-env  ethaddr   **:**:**:**:b9:84  ascii
  u-boot-env  wanaddr   **:**:**:**:b9:85  ascii
  u-boot-env  wlanaddr  00:AA:BB:CC:DD:12  ascii
  u-boot-env  iNICaddr  00:AA:BB:CC:DD:22  ascii

The factory firmware only assigns ethaddr. Thus, we take the
binary value which we can use directly in DTS.

Additional information
OEM firmware shell password is: SitecomSenao
useful for creating backup of original firmware.

0c721434ea ramips: add support for Linksys EA8100 v2
Specifications:
- SoC: MT7621AT
- RAM: 256MB
- Flash: 128MB NAND
- Ethernet: 5 Gigabit ports
- WiFi: 2.4G/5G MT7615N
- USB: 1 USB 3.0, 1 USB 2.0

This device is very similar to the EA7300 v1/v2, EA7500 v2, and EA8100 v1.

Installation:

Upload the generated factory image through the factory web interface.

(following part taken from EA7300 v2 commit message:)

This might fail due to the A/B nature of this device. When flashing, OEM
firmware writes over the non-booted partition. If booted from 'A',
flashing over 'B' won't work. To get around this, you should flash the
OEM image over itself. This will then boot the router from 'B' and
allow you to flash OpenWRT without problems.

Reverting to factory firmware:

Hard-reset the router three times to force it to boot from 'B.' This is
where the stock firmware resides. To remove any traces of OpenWRT from
your router simply flash the OEM image at this point.

With thanks to Tom Wizetek (@wizetek) for testing.

nearly identical, except the Extender lacks a USB port and has a single
Ethernet port.

Specification:
- SoC: MediaTek MT7621AT (2C/4T) @ 880MHz
- RAM: 128MB DDR3 (Nanya NT5CC64M16GP-DI)
- FLASH: 128MB NAND (Winbond W29N01GVSIAA)

- BTN: Reset, WPS
- LED: single RGB
- UART:  through-hole on PCB.
   J1: pin1 (square pad, towards rear)=3.3V, pin2=RX,
   pin3=GND, pin4=TX.  Settings: 57600/8N1.

Note regarding dual system partitions
-------------------------------------

The vendor firmware and boot loader use a dual partition scheme.  The boot
partition is decided by the bootImage U-boot environment variable: 0 for
the 1st partition, 1 for the 2nd.

OpenWrt does not support this scheme and will always use the first OS
partition.  It will set bootImage to 0 during installation, making sure
the first partition is selected by the boot loader.

Also, because we can't be sure which partition is active to begin with, a
2-step flash process is used.  We first flash an initramfs image, then
follow with a regular sysupgrade.

Installation:

Router (ALLY-R1900K)
1) Install the flashable initramfs image via the OEM web-interface.
  (Alternatively, you can use the TFTP recovery method below.)
  You can use WiFi or Ethernet.
  The direct URL is:  http://192.168.3.1/07_06_00_firmware.html
  a. No login is needed, and you'll be in their setup wizard.
  b. You might get a warning about not being connected to the Internet.
  c. Towards the bottom of the page will be a section entitled "Or
  Manually Upgrade Firmware from a File:" where you can manually choose
  and upload a firmware file.
  d: Click "Choose File", select the OpenWRT "initramfs" image and click
  "Upload."
2) The Router will flash the OpenWrt initramfs image and reboot.  After
  booting, LuCI will be available on 192.168.1.1.
3) Log into LuCI as root; there is no password.
4) Optional (but recommended) is to backup the OEM firmware before
  continuing; see process below.
5) Complete the Installation by flashing a full OpenWRT image.  Note:
  you may use the sysupgrade command line tool in lieu of the UI if
  you prefer.
  a.  Choose System -> Backup/Flash Firmware.
  b.  Click "Flash Image..." under "Flash new firmware image"
  c.  Click "Browse..." and then select the sysupgrade file.
  d.  Click Upload to upload the sysupgrade file.
  e.  Important:  uncheck "Keep settings and retain the current
      configuration" for this initial installation.
  f.  Click "Continue" to flash the firmware.
  g.  The device will reboot and OpenWRT is installed.

Extender (ALLY-00X19K)
1) This device requires a TFTP recovery procedure to do an initial load
  of OpenWRT.  Start by configuring a computer as a TFTP client:
  a. Install a TFTP client (server not necessary)
  b. Configure an Ethernet interface to 192.168.1.x/24; don't use .1 or .6
  c. Connect the Ethernet to the sole Ethernet port on the X19K.
2) Put the ALLY Extender in TFTP recovery mode.
  a. Do this by pressing and holding the reset button on the bottom while
  connecting the power.
  b. As soon as the LED lights up green (roughly 2-3 seconds), release
  the button.
3) Start the TFTP transfer of the Initramfs image from your setup machine.
For example, from Linux:
tftp -v -m binary 192.168.1.6 69 -c put initramfs.bin
4) The Extender will flash the OpenWrt initramfs image and reboot.  After
booting, LuCI will be available on 192.168.1.1.
5) Log into LuCI as root; there is no password.
6) Optional (but recommended) is to backup the OEM firmware before
  continuing; see process below.
7) Complete the Installation by flashing a full OpenWRT image.  Note: you
may use the sysupgrade command line tool in lieu of the UI if you prefer.
  a.  Choose System -> Backup/Flash Firmware.
  b.  Click "Flash Image..." under "Flash new firmware image"
  c.  Click "Browse..." and then select the sysupgrade file.
  d.  Click Upload to upload the sysupgrade file.
  e.  Important:  uncheck "Keep settings and retain the current
      configuration" for this initial installation.
  f.  Click "Continue" to flash the firmware.
  g.  The device will reboot and OpenWRT is installed.

Backup the OEM Firmware:
-----------------------

There isn't any downloadable firmware for the ALLY devices on the Amped
Wireless web site. Reverting back to the OEM firmware is not possible
unless we have a backup of the original OEM firmware.

The OEM firmware may be stored on either /dev/mtd3 ("firmware") or
/dev/mtd6 ("oem").  We can't be sure which was overwritten with the
initramfs image, so backup both partitions to be safe.

  1) Once logged into LuCI, navigate to System -> Backup/Flash Firmware.
  2) Under "Save mtdblock contents," first select "firmware" and click
  "Save mtdblock" to download the image.
  3) Repeat the process, but select "oem" from the pull-down menu.

Revert to the OEM Firmware:
--------------------------
* U-boot TFTP:
  Follow the TFTP recovery steps for the Extender, and use the
  backup image.

* OpenWrt "Flash Firmware" interface:
  Upload the backup image and select "Force update"
  before continuing.

2449a63208 ramips: mt7621: Add support for ZyXEL NR7101
The ZyXEL NR7101 is an 802.3at PoE powered 5G outdoor (IP68) CPE
with integrated directional 5G/LTE antennas.

Specifications:

 - SoC: MediaTek MT7621AT
 - RAM: 256 MB
 - Flash: 128 MB MB NAND (MX30LF1G18AC)
 - WiFi: MediaTek MT7603E
 - Switch: 1 LAN port (Gigabiti)

 - SIM: 2 micro-SIM slots under transparent cover
 - Buttons: Reset, WLAN under same cover
 - LEDs: Multicolour green/red/yellow under same cover (visible)
 - Power: 802.3at PoE via LAN port

The device is built as an outdoor ethernet to 5G/LTE bridge or
router. The Wifi interface is intended for installation and/or
temporary management purposes only.

UART Serial:

57600N1
Located on populated 5 pin header J5:

 [o] GND
 [ ] key - no pin
 [o] RX
 [o] TX
 [o] 3.3V Vcc

Remove the SIM/button/LED cover, the WLAN button and 12 screws
holding the back plate and antenna cover together. The GPS antenna
is fixed to the cover, so be careful with the cable.  Remove 4
screws fixing the antenna board to the main board, again being
careful with the cables.

A bluetooth TTL adapter is recommended for permanent console
access, to keep the router water and dustproof. The 3.3V pin is
able to power such an adapter.

MAC addresses:

OpenWrt OEM   Address          Found as

wwan0   usb0  random

WARNING!!

ISP managed firmware might at any time update itself to a version
where all known workarounds have been disabled.  Never boot an ISP
managed firmware with a SIM in any of the slots if you intend to use
the router with OpenWrt. The bootloader lock can only be disabled with
root access to running firmware. The flash chip is physically
inaccessible without soldering.

Installation from OEM web GUI:

- Log in as "supervisor" on https://172.17.1.1/
- Upload OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.bin image on the
  Maintenance -> Firmware page
- Wait for OpenWrt to boot and ssh to root@192.168.1.1
- (optional) Copy OpenWrt to the recovery partition. See below
- Sysupgrade to the OpenWrt sysupgrade image and reboot

Installation from OEM ssh:

- Log in as "root" on 172.17.1.1 port 22022
- scp OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.bin image to 172.17.1.1:/tmp
- Prepare bootloader config by running:
    nvram setro uboot DebugFlag 0x1
    nvram setro uboot CheckBypass 0
    nvram commit
- Run "mtd_write -w write initramfs-recovery.bin Kernel" and reboot
- Wait for OpenWrt to boot and ssh to root@192.168.1.1
- (optional) Copy OpenWrt to the recovery partition. See below
- Sysupgrade to the OpenWrt sysupgrade image and reboot

Copying OpenWrt to the recovery partition:

- Verify that you are running a working OpenWrt recovery image
  from flash
- ssh to root@192.168.1.1 and run:
    fw_setenv CheckBypass 0
    mtd -r erase Kernel2
- Wait while the bootloader mirrors Image1 to Image2

NOTE: This should only be done after successfully booting the OpenWrt
  recovery image from the primary partition during installation.  Do
  not do this after having sysupgraded OpenWrt!  Reinstalling the
  recovery image on normal upgrades is not required or recommended.

Installation from Z-Loader:

- Halt boot by pressing Escape on console
- Set up a tftp server to serve the OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.bin
  image at 10.10.10.3
- Type "ATNR 1,initramfs-recovery.bin" at the "ZLB>" prompt
- Wait for OpenWrt to boot and ssh to root@192.168.1.1
- Sysupgrade to the OpenWrt sysupgrade image

NOTE: ATNR will write the recovery image to both primary and recovery
  partitions in one go.

Booting from RAM:

- Halt boot by pressing Escape on console
- Type "ATGU" at the "ZLB>" prompt to enter the U-Boot menu
- Press "4" to select "4: Entr boot command line interface."
- Set up a tftp server to serve the OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.bin
  image at 10.10.10.3
- Load it using "tftpboot 0x88000000 initramfs-recovery.bin"
- Boot with "bootm  0x8800017C" to skip the 380 (0x17C) bytes ZyXEL
  header

This method can also be used to RAM boot OEM firmware. The warning
regarding OEM applies!  Never boot an unknown OEM firmware, or any OEM
firmware with a SIM in any slot.

NOTE: U-Boot configuration is incomplete (on some devices?). You may
  have to configure a working mac address before running tftp using
   "setenv eth0addr <mac>"

Unlocking the bootloader:

If you are unebale to halt boot, then the bootloader is locked.

The OEM firmware locks the bootloader on every boot by setting
DebugFlag to 0.  Setting it to 1 is therefore only temporary
when OEM firmware is installed.

- Run "nvram setro uboot DebugFlag 0x1; nvram commit" in OEM firmware
- Run "fw_setenv DebugFlag 0x1" in OpenWrt

  NOTE:
    OpenWrt does this automatically on first boot if necessary

  NOTE2:
    Setting the flag to 0x1 avoids the reset to 0 in known OEM
    versions, but this might change.

  WARNING:
    Writing anything to flash while the bootloader is locked is
    considered extremely risky. Errors might cause a permanent
    brick!

Enabling management access from LAN:

Temporary workaround to allow installing OpenWrt if OEM firmware
has disabled LAN management:

- Connect to console
- Log in as "root"
- Run "iptables -I INPUT -i br0 -j ACCEPT"

Notes on the OEM/bootloader dual partition scheme

The dual partition scheme on this device uses Image2 as a recovery
image only. The device will always boot from Image1, but the
bootloader might copy Image2 to Image1 under specific conditions. This
scheme prevents repurposing of the space occupied by Image2 in any
useful way.

Validation of primary and recovery images is controlled by the
variables CheckBypass, Image1Stable, and Image1Try.

The bootloader sets CheckBypass to 0 and reboots if Image1 fails
validation.

If CheckBypass is 0 and Image1 is invalid then Image2 is copied to
Image1.

If CheckBypass is 0 and Image2 is invalid, then Image1 is copied to
Image2.

If CheckBypass is 1 then all tests are skipped and Image1 is booted
unconditionally.  CheckBypass is set to 1 after each successful
validation of Image1.

Image1Try is incremented if Image1Stable is 0, and Image2 is copied to
Image1 if Image1Try is 3 or larger.  But the bootloader only tests
Image1Try if CheckBypass is 0, which is impossible unless the booted
image sets it to 0 before failing.

The system is therefore not resilient against runtime errors like
failure to mount the rootfs, unless the kernel image sets CheckBypass
to 0 before failing. This is not yet implemented in OpenWrt.

Setting Image1Stable to 1 prevents the bootloader from updating
Image1Try on every boot, saving unnecessary writes to the environment
partition.

Keeping an OpenWrt initramfs recovery as Image2 is recommended
primarily to avoid unwanted OEM firmware boots on failure. Ref the
warning above. It enables console-less recovery in case of some
failures to boot from Image1.

59d065c9f8 ramips: add support for ZTE MF283+
ZTE MF283+ is a dual-antenna LTE category 4 router, based on Ralink
RT3352 SoC, and built-in ZTE P685M PCIe MiniCard LTE modem.

Hardware highlighs:
- CPU: MIPS24KEc at 400MHz,
- RAM: 64MB DDR2,
- Flash: 16MB SPI,
- Ethernet: 4 10/100M port switch with VLAN support,
- Wireless: Dual-stream 802.11n (RT2860), with two internal antennas,
- WWAN: Built-in ZTE P685M modem, with two internal antennas and two
  switching SMA connectors for external antennas,
- FXS: Single ATA, with two connectors marked PHONE1 and PHONE2,
  internally wired in parallel by 0-Ohm resistors, handled entirely by
  internal WWAN modem.
- USB: internal miniPCIe slot for modem,
  unpopulated USB A connector on PCB.
- SIM slot for the WWAN modem.
- UART connector for the console (unpopulated) at 3.3V,
  pinout: 1: VCC, 2: TXD, 3: RXD, 4: GND,
  settings: 57600-8-N-1.
- LEDs: Power (fixed), WLAN, WWAN (RGB),
  phone (bicolor, controlled by modem), Signal,
  4 link/act LEDs for LAN1-4.
- Buttons: WPS, reset.

Installation:
As the modem is, for most of the time, provided by carriers, there is no
possibility to flash through web interface, only built-in FOTA update
and TFTP recovery are supported.

There are two installation methods:
(1) Using serial console and initramfs-kernel - recommended, as it
allows you to back up original firmware, or
(2) Using TFTP recovery - does not require disassembly.

(1) Using serial console:
To install OpenWrt, one needs to disassemble the
router and flash it via TFTP by using serial console:
- Locate unpopulated 4-pin header on the top of the board, near buttons.
- Connect UART adapter to the connector. Use 3.3V voltage level only,
  omit VCC connection. Pin 1 (VCC) is marked by square pad.
- Put your initramfs-kernel image in TFTP server directory.
- Power-up the device.
- Press "1" to load initramfs image to RAM.
- Enter IP address chosen for the device (defaults to 192.168.0.1).
- Enter TFTP server IP address (defaults to 192.168.0.22).
- Enter image filename as put inside TFTP server - something short,
  like firmware.bin is recommended.
- Hit enter to load the image. U-boot will store above values in
  persistent environment for next installation.
- If you ever might want to return to vendor firmware,
  BACK UP CONTENTS OF YOUR FLASH NOW.
  For this router, commonly used by mobile networks,
  plain vendor images are not officially available.
  To do so, copy contents of each /dev/mtd[0-3], "firmware" - mtd3 being the
  most important, and copy them over network to your PC. But in case
  anything goes wrong, PLEASE do back up ALL OF THEM.
- From under OpenWrt just booted, load the sysupgrade image to tmpfs,
  and execute sysupgrade.

(2) Using TFTP recovery
- Set your host IP to 192.168.0.22 - for example using:
sudo ip addr add 192.168.0.22/24 dev <interface>
- Set up a TFTP server on your machine
- Put the sysupgrade image in TFTP server root named as 'root_uImage'
  (no quotes), for example using tftpd:
  cp openwrt-ramips-rt305x-zte_mf283plus-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin /srv/tftp/root_uImage
- Power on the router holding BOTH Reset and WPS buttons held for around
  5 seconds, until after WWAN and Signal LEDs blink.
- Wait for OpenWrt to start booting up, this should take around a
  minute.

Return to original firmware:
Here, again there are two possibilities are possible, just like for
installation:
(1) Using initramfs-kernel image and serial console
(2) Using TFTP recovery

(1) Using initramfs-kernel image and serial console
- Boot OpenWrt initramfs-kernel image via TFTP the same as for
  installation.
- Copy over the backed up "firmware.bin" image of "mtd3" to /tmp/
- Use "mtd write /tmp/firmware.bin /dev/mtd3", where firmware.bin is
  your backup taken before OpenWrt installation, and /dev/mtd3 is the
  "firmware" partition.

(2) Using TFTP recovery
- Follow the same steps as for installation, but replacing 'root_uImage'
  with firmware backup you took during installation, or by vendor
  firmware obtained elsewhere.

A few quirks of the device, noted from my instance:
- Wired and wireless MAC addresses written in flash are the same,
  despite being in separate locations.
- Power LED is hardwired to 3.3V, so there is no status LED per se, and
  WLAN LED is controlled by WLAN driver, so I had to hijack 3G/4G LED
  for status - original firmware also does this in bootup.
- FXS subsystem and its LED is controlled by the
  modem, so it work independently of OpenWrt.
  Tested to work even before OpenWrt booted.
  I managed to open up modem's shell via ADB,
  and found from its kernel logs, that FXS and its LED is indeed controlled
  by modem.
- While finding LEDs, I had no GPL source drop from ZTE, so I had to probe for
  each and every one of them manually, so this might not be complete -
  it looks like bicolor LED is used for FXS, possibly to support
  dual-ported variant in other device sharing the PCB.
- Flash performance is very low, despite enabling 50MHz clock and fast
  read command, due to using 4k sectors throughout the target. I decided
  to keep it at the moment, to avoid breaking existing devices - I
  identified one potentially affected, should this be limited to under
  4MB of Flash. The difference between sysupgrade durations is whopping
  3min vs 8min, so this is worth pursuing.

In vendor firmware, WWAN LED behaviour is as follows, citing the manual:
- red - no registration,
- green - 3G,
- blue - 4G.
Blinking indicates activity, so netdev trigger mapped from wwan0 to blue:wwan
looks reasonable at the moment, for full replacement, a script similar to
"rssileds" would need to be developed.

Behaviour of "Signal LED" in vendor firmware is as follows:
- Off - no signal,
- Blinking - poor coverage
- Solid - good coverage.

A few more details on the built-in LTE modem:
Modem is not fully supported upstream in Linux - only two CDC ports
(DIAG and one for QMI) probe. I sent patches upstream to add required device
IDs for full support.
The mapping of USB functions is as follows:
- CDC (QCDM) - dedicated to comunicating with proprietary Qualcomm tools.
- CDC (PCUI) - not supported by upstream 'option' driver yet. Patch
  submitted upstream.
- CDC (Modem) - Exactly the same as above
- QMI - A patch is sent upstream to add device ID, with that in place,
  uqmi did connect successfully, once I selected correct PDP context
  type for my SIM (IPv4-only, not default IPv4v6).
- ADB - self-explanatory, one can access the ADB shell with a device ID
  added to 51-android.rules like so:

SUBSYSTEM!="usb", GOTO="android_usb_rules_end"
LABEL="android_usb_rules_begin"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="19d2", ATTR{idProduct}=="1275", ENV{adb_user}="yes"
ENV{adb_user}=="yes", MODE="0660", GROUP="plugdev", TAG+="uaccess"
LABEL="android_usb_rules_end"

While not really needed in OpenWrt, it might come useful if one decides to
move the modem to their PC to hack it further, insides seem to be pretty
interesting. ADB also works well from within OpenWrt without that. O
course it isn't needed for normal operation, so I left it out of
DEVICE_PACKAGES.

a459696eb1 ramips: add support for Senao Engenius ESR600H
FCC ID: A8J-ESR750H

Engenius ESR600H is an indoor wireless router with a gigabit switch,
2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless, internal and external antennas, and a USB port.

**Specification:**

  - RT3662F			MIPS SOC, 5 GHz WMAC (2x2)
  - RT5392L			PCI on-board, 2.4 GHz (2x2)
  - AR8327			RGMII, 7-port GbE, 25 MHz clock
  - 40 MHz reference clock
  - 8 MB FLASH			25L6406EM2I-12G
  - 64 MB RAM
  - UART at J12			(unpopulated)
  - 2 internal antennas		(5 GHz)
  - 2 external antennas		(2.4 GHz)
  - 9 LEDs, 1 button		(power, wps, wifi2g, wifi5g, 5 LAN/WAN)
  - USB 2 port			(GPIO controlled power)

**MAC addresses:**

  MAC Addresses are labeled as WAN and WLAN
  U-boot environment has the the vendor MAC address for ethernet
  MAC addresses in "factory" are part of wifi calibration data

  eth0.2	WAN	*:13:e7		u-boot-env wanaddr
  eth0.1	----	*:13:e8		u-boot-env wanaddr + 1
  phy0		WLAN	*:14:b8		factory 0x8004
  phy1		----	*:14:bc		factory 0x4

**Installation:**

  Method 1: Firmware upgrade page

  OEM webpage at 192.168.0.1
  username and password "admin"
  Navigate to Network Setting --> Tools --> Firmware
  Click Browse and select the factory.dlf image
  Click Continue to confirm and wait 6 minutes or more...

  Method 2: Serial console to load TFTP image:

  (see TFTP recovery)

**Return to OEM:**

  Unlike most Engenius boards, this does not have a 'failsafe' image
  the only way to return to OEM is serial access to uboot

  Unlike most Engenius boards, public images are not available...
  so the only way to return to OEM is to have a copy
  of the MTD partition "firmware" BEFORE flashing openwrt.

**TFTP recovery:**

  Unlike most Engenius boards, TFTP is reliable here
  however it requires serial console access
  (soldering pins to the UART pinouts)

  build your own image...
  with 'ramdisk' selected under 'Target Images'

  rename initramfs-kernel.bin to 'uImageESR-600H'
  make the file available on a TFTP server at 192.168.99.8
  interrupt boot by holding or pressing '4' in serial console
  as soon as board is powered on

  `tftpboot 0x81000000`
  `bootm 0x81000000`
  perform a sysupgrade

**Format of OEM firmware image:**

  This Engenius board uses the Senao proprietary header
  with a unique Product ID. The header for factory.bin is
  generated by the mksenaofw program included in openwrt.

  .dlf file extension is also required for OEM software to accept it

**Note on using OKLI:**

  the kernel is now too large for the bootloader to handle
  so OKLI is used via the `kernel-loader` image command
  recently in master several other ramips boards have the same problem

  'Kernel panic - not syncing: Failed to find ralink,rt3883-sysc node'

Installation:

Flash factory image through GUI.

This might fail due to the A/B nature of this device. When flashing, OEM
firmware writes over the non-booted partition. If booted from 'A',
flashing over 'B' won't work. To get around this, you should flash the
OEM image over itself. This will then boot the router from 'B' and
allow you to flash OpenWRT without problems.

Reverting to factory firmware:

Hard-reset the router three times to force it to boot from 'B.' This is
where the stock firmware resides. To remove any traces of OpenWRT from
your router simply flash the OEM image at this point.

07aa858a73 ramips: fix partitions and boot for RAVPower RP-WD03
The RAVPower RP-WD03 is a battery powered router, with an Ethernet and
USB port. Due due a limitation in the vendor supplied U-Boot bootloader,
we cannot exceed a 1.5 MB kernel size, as is the case with recent builds
(i.e. post v19.07). This breaks both factory and sysupgrade images.

To address this, use the lzma loader (loader-okli) to work around this
limitation.

The improvements here also address the "misplaced" U-Boot environment
partition, which is located between the kernel and rootfs in the stock
image / implementation. This is addressed by making use of mtd-concat,
maximizing space available in the booted image.
This will make sysupgrade from earlier versions impossible.

Changes are based on the recently supported HooToo HT-TM05, as the
hardware is almost identical (except for RAM size) and is from the same
vendor (SunValley). While at it, also change the SPI frequency
accordingly.

Installation:

 - Download the needed OpenWrt install files, place them in the root
   of a clean TFTP server running on your computer. Rename the files as,
   - openwrt-ramips-mt7620-ravpower_rp-wd03-squashfs-kernel.bin => kernel
   - openwrt-ramips-mt7620-ravpower_rp-wd03-squashfs-rootfs.bin => rootfs
 - Plug the router into your computer via Ethernet
 - Set your computer to use 10.10.10.254 as its IP address
 - With your router shut down, hold down the power button until the first
   white LED lights up.
 - Push and hold the reset button and release the power button. Continue
   holding the reset button for 30 seconds or until it begins searching
   for files on your TFTP server, whichever comes first.
 - The router (10.10.10.128) will look for your computer at 10.10.10.254
   and install the two files. Once it has finished installation, it will
   automatically reboot and start up OpenWrt.
 - Set your computer to use DHCP for its IP address

Notes:

 - U-Boot environment can be modified, u-boot-env is preserved on initial
   install or sysupgrade
 - mtd-concat functionality is included, to leave a "hole" for u-boot-env,
   combining the OEM kernel and rootfs partitions

Most of the changes in this commit are the work of Russell Morris (as
credited below), I only wrapped them up and added compat-version.
Thanks to @mpratt14 and @xabolcs for their help getting the lzma loader
to work!

Exploit and detailed instructions:

https://openwrt.org/toh/xiaomi/xiaomi_redmi_router_ac2100

An implementation of CVE-2020-8597 against stock firmware version 1.0.14

This requires a computer with ethernet plugged into the wan port and an active
PPPoE session, and if successful will open a reverse shell to 192.168.31.177
on port 31337.

As this shell is somewhat unreliable and likely to be killed in a random amount
of time, it is recommended to wget a static compiled busybox binary onto the
device and start telnetd with it.

The stock telnetd and dropbear unfortunately appear inoperable.
(Disabled on release versions of stock firmware likely)
Ie. wget https://yourip/busybox-mipsel -O /tmp/busybox

31b49f02ca ramips: add support for Linksys EA7500 v2
The Linksys EA7500 v2 is advertised as AC1900, but its internal
hardware is AC2600 capable.

Hardware
--------
SoC:   Mediatek MT7621AT (880 MHz, 2 cores 4 threads)
RAM:   256M (Nanya NT5CC128M16IP-DI)
FLASH: 128MB NAND (Macronix MX30LF1G18AC-TI)
ETH:   5x 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet (MT7530)
WIFI:
  - 2.4GHz: 1x MT7615N (4x4:4)
  - 5GHz:   1x MT7615N (4x4:4)
  - 4 antennas: 3 external detachable antennas and 1 internal
USB:
  - 1x USB 3.0
  - 1x USB 2.0
BTN:
  - 1x Reset button
  - 1x WPS button
LEDS:
  - 1x White led (Power)
  - 6x Green leds (link lan1-lan4, link wan, wps)
  - 5x Orange leds (act lan1-lan4, act wan) (working but unmodifiable)

Everything works correctly.

Installation
------------
The “factory” openwrt image can be flashed directly from OEM stock
firmware. After the flash the router will reboot automatically.

However, due to the dual boot system, the first installation could fail
(if you want to know why, read the footnotes).
If the flash succeed and you can reach OpenWrt through the web
interface or ssh, you are done.
Otherwise the router will try to boot 3 times and then will
automatically boot the OEM firmware (don’t turn off the router.
Simply wait and try to reach the router through the web interface
every now and then, it will take few minutes).

After this, you should be back in the OEM firmware.

Now you have to flash the OEM Firmware over itself using the OEM web
interface (I tested it using the FW_EA7500v2_2.0.8.194281_prod.img
downloaded from the Linksys website).

When the router reboots flash the “factory” OpenWrt image and this
time it should work.

After the OpenWrt installation you have to use the sysupgrade image
for future updates.

Restore OEM Firmware
--------------------
After the OpenWrt flash, the OEM firmware is still stored in the
second partition thanks to the dual boot system.
You can switch from OpenWrt to OEM firmware and vice-versa failing
the boot 3 times in a row:
 1) power on the router
 2) wait 15 seconds
 3) power off the router
 4) repeat steps 1-2-3 twice more.
 5) power on the router and you should be in the “other” firmware

If you want to completely remove OpenWrt from your router, switch to
the OEM firmware and then flash OEM firmware from the web interface
as a normal update.
This procedure will overwrite the OpenWrt partition.

Footnotes
---------
The Linksys EA7500-v2 has a dual boot system to avoid bricks.
This system works using 2 pair of partitions:
 1) "kernel" and "rootfs"
 2) "alt_kernel" and "alt_rootfs".
After 3 failed boot attempts, the bootloader tries to boot the other
pair of partitions and so on.

This system is managed by the bootloader, which writes a bootcount in
the s_env partition, and if successfully booted, the system add a
"zero-bootcount" after the previous value.

A system update performed from OEM firmware, writes the firmware on the
other pair of partitions and sets the bootloader to boot the new pair
of partitions editing the “boot_part” variable in the bootloader vars.
Effectively it's a quick and safe system to switch the selected boot
partition.

Another way to switch the boot partition is:
 1) power on the router
 2) wait 15 seconds
 3) power off the router
 4) repeat steps 1-2-3 twice more.
 5) power on the router and you should be in the “other” firmware

In this OpenWrt port, this dual boot system is partially working
because the bootloader sets the right rootfs partition in the cmdline
but unfortunately OpenWrt for ramips platform overwrites the cmdline
so is not possible to detect the right rootfs partition.

Because all of this, I preferred to simply use the first pair of
partitions and set read-only the other pair.

However this solution is not optimal because is not possible to know
without opening the case which is the current booted partition.
Let’s take for example a router booting the OEM firmware from the first
pair of partitions. If we flash the OpenWrt image, it will be written
on the second pair. In this situation the router will bootloop 3 times
and then will automatically come back to the first pair of partitions
containg the OEM firmware.
In this situation, to flash OpenWrt correctly is necessary to switch
the booting partition, flashing again the OEM firmware over itself.
At this point the OEM firmware is on both pair of partitions but the
current booted pair is the second one.
Now, flashing the OpenWrt factory image will write the firmware on
the first pair and then will boot correctly.

If this limitation in the ramips platform about the cmdline will be
fixed, the dual boot system can also be implemented in OpenWrt with
almost no effort.

d009033911 ramips: add support for Xiaomi Mi Router 3 Pro
Hardware:

CPU:   MediaTek MT7621AT (2x880MHz)
RAM:   512MB DDR3
FLASH: 256MB NAND
WiFi:  2.4GHz 4x4 MT7615 b/g/n (Needs driver, See Issues!)
WiFI:  5GHz 4x4 MT7615 a/n/ac  (Needs driver, See Issues!)
USB:   1x 3.0
ETH:   1x WAN 10/100/1000 3x LAN 10/100/1000
LED:   Power/Status
BTN:   RESET
UART:  115200 8n1

Partition layout and boot:

Stock Xiaomi firmware has the MTD split into (among others)

- kernel0 (@0x200000)
- kernel1 (@0x600000)
- rootfs0
- rootfs1
- overlay (ubi)

Xiaomi uboot expects to find kernels at 0x200000 & 0x600000
referred to as system 1 & system 2 respectively.
a kernel is considered suitable for handing control over
if its linux magic number exists & uImage CRC are correct.
If either of those conditions fail, a matching sys'n'_fail flag
is set in uboot env & a restart performed in the hope that the
alternate kernel is okay.
If neither kernel checksums ok and both are marked failed, system 2
is booted anyway.

Note uboot's tftp flash install writes the transferred
image to both kernel partitions.

Installation:

Similar to the Xiaomi MIR3G, we keep stock Xiaomi firmware in
kernel0 for ease of recovery, and install OpenWRT into kernel1 and
after.

The installation file for OpenWRT is a *squashfs-factory.bin file that
contains the kernel and a ubi partition. This is flashed as follows:

nvram set flag_try_sys1_failed=1
nvram set flag_try_sys2_failed=0
nvram commit
dd if=factory.bin bs=1M count=4 | mtd write - kernel1
dd if=factory.bin bs=1M skip=4 | mtd write - rootfs0
reboot

Reverting to stock:

The part of stock firmware we've kept in kernel0 allows us to run stock
recovery, which will re-flash stock firmware from a *.bin file on a USB.

For this we do the following:

fw_setenv flag_try_sys1_failed 0
fw_setenv flag_try_sys2_failed 1
reboot

After reboot the LED status light will blink red, at which point pressing
the 'reset' button will cause stock firmware to be installed from USB.

Issues:

OpenWRT currently does not have support for the MT7615 wifi chips. There is
ongoing work to add mt7615 support to the open source mt76 driver. Until that
support is in place, there are closed-source kernel modules that can be used.

8e40fbff0b ramips: drop support for ALLNET ALL0239-3G and Sitecom WL-341 v3
Beside one exception, no one took care of these two remaining boards
still using the legacy image build code during the last two years.

Since OpenWrt 14.07 the ALLNET ALL0239-3G image building is broken.

The Sitecom WL-341 v3 image build code looks pretty hackish and broken.
It's questionable if the legacy image works as all.

f2107fc328 ramips: improve Xiaomi Mi Router 3G support
This commit improves support for the Xiaomi Mi Router 3G originally
added in commit 6e283cdc0d

Improvements:

- Remove software watchdog as hardware watchdog now working as per
  commit 3fbf3ab44f for all mt7621
  devices.

- Reset button polarity corrected - length of press determines reboot
  (short press) vs. reset to defaults (long press) behaviour.

- Enable GPIO amber switch port LEDs on board rear - lit indicates 1Gbit
  link and blink on activity.  Green LEDs driven directly by switch
  indicating any link speed and tx activity.

- USB port power on/off GPIO exposed as 'usbpower'

- Add access to uboot environment settings for checking/setting uboot
  boot order preference from user space.

Changes:

- Front LED indicator is physically made of independent Yellow/Amber,
  Red & Blue LEDs combined via a plastic 'lightpipe' to a front panel
  indicator, hence the colour behaviour is similar to an RGB LED. RGB
  LEDs are not supported at this time because they produce colour results
  that do not then match colour labels, e.g. enabling 'mir3g:red' and
  'mir3g:blue' would result in a purple indicator and we have no such
  label for purple.
  The yellow, red & blue LEDs have been split out as individual yellow,
  red & blue status LEDs, with yellow being the default status LED as
  before and with red's WAN and blue's USB default associations removed.

- Swapped order of vlan interfaces (eth0.1 & eth0.2) to match stock vlan
  layout. eth0.1 is LAN, eth0.2 is WAN

- Add 'lwlll' vlan layout to mt7530 switch driver to prevent packet
  leakage between kernel switch init and uci swconfig

uboot behaviour & system 'recovery'

uboot expects to find bootable kernels at nand addresses 0x200000 &
0x600000 known by uboot as "system 1" and "system 2" respectively.
uboot chooses which system to hand control to based on 3 environment
variables: flag_last_success, flag_try_sys1_failed & flag_try_sys2_failed

last_success represents a preference for a particular system and is set
to 0 for system 1, set to 1 for system 2.  last_success is considered *if*
and only if both try_sys'n'_failed flags are 0 (ie. unset) If *either*
failed flags are set then uboot will attempt to hand control to the
non failed system. If both failed flags are set then uboot will check
the uImage CRC of system 1 and hand control to it if ok.  If the uImage
CRC of system is not ok, uboot will hand control to system 2
irrespective of system 2's uImage CRC.

NOTE: uboot only ever sets failed flags, it *never* clears them. uboot
sets a system's failed flag if that system's was selected for boot but
the uImage CRC is incorrect.

Fortunately with serial console access, uboot provides the ability to
boot an initramfs image transferred via tftp, similarly an image may
be flashed to nand however it will flash to *both* kernels so a backup
of stock kernel image is suggested. Note that the suggested install
procedure below set's system 1's failed flag (stock) thus uboot ignores
the last_success preference and boots LEDE located in system 2.

Considerable thought has gone into whether LEDE should replace both
kernels, only one (and which one) etc. LEDE kernels do not include a
minimal rootfs and thus unlike the stock kernel cannot include a
method of controlling uboot environment variables in the event of
rootfs mount failure. Similarly uboot fails to provide an external
mechanism for indicating boot system failure.

Installation - from stock.

Installation through telnet/ssh:
- copy lede-ramips-mt7621-mir3g-squashfs-kernel1.bin and
  lede-ramips-mt7621-mir3g-squashfs-rootfs0.bin to usb disk or wget it
  from LEDE download site to /tmp
- switch to /extdisks/sda1/ (if copied to USB drive) or to /tmp if
  wgetted from LEDE download site
- run: mtd write lede-ramips-mt7621-mir3g-squashfs-kernel1.bin kernel1
- run: mtd write lede-ramips-mt7621-mir3g-squashfs-rootfs0.bin rootfs0
- run: nvram set flag_try_sys1_failed=1
- run: nvram commit
- run: reboot

Recovery - to stock.

Assuming you used the above installation instructions you will have a
stock kernel image in system 1. If it can be booted then it may be used
to perform a stock firmware recovery, thus erasing LEDE completely. From
a 'working' LEDE state (even failsafe)

Failsafe only:
- run: mount_root
- run: sh /etc/uci-defaults/30_uboot-envtools
Then do the steps for 'All'

All:
- run: fw_setenv flag_try_sys2_failed 1
- run: reboot

The board will reboot into system 1 (stock basic kernel) and wait with
system red light slowly blinking for a FAT formatted usb stick with a
recovery image to be inserted.  Press and hold the reset button for
around 1 second. Status LED will turn yellow during recovery and blue
when recovery complete.
