Installation from Serial Console
------------
1. Connect to the serial console. Power up the device and interrupt
autoboot when prompted
2. Connect a TFTP server reachable at 192.168.1.0/24
(e.g. 192.168.1.66) to the ethernet port. Serve the OpenWrt
initramfs image as "openwrt.bin"
3. To test OpenWrt only, go to step 4 and never execute step 5;
To install, auto_recovery should be disabled first, and boot_part
should be set to 1 if its current value is not.
ath> setenv auto_recovery no
ath> setenv boot_part 1
ath> saveenv
4. Boot the initramfs image using U-Boot
ath> setenv serverip 192.168.1.66
ath> tftpboot 0x84000000 openwrt.bin
ath> bootm
5. Copy the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to the device using scp and
install it like a normal upgrade (with no need to keeping config
since no config from "previous OpenWRT installation" could be kept
at all)
# sysupgrade -n /path/to/openwrt/sysupgrade.bin
Note: Like many other routers produced by Linksys, it has a dual
firmware flash layout, but because I do not know how to handle
it, I decide to disable it for more usable space. (That is why
the "auto_recovery" above should be disabled before installing
OpenWRT.) If someone is interested in generating factory
firmware image capable to flash from stock firmware, as well as
restoring the dual firmware layout, commented-out layout for the
original secondary partitions left in the device tree may be a
useful hint.
Installation from Web Interface
------------
1. Login to the router via its web interface (default password: admin)
2. Find the firmware update interface under "Connectivity/Basic"
3. Choose the OpenWrt factory image and click "Start"
4. If the router still boots into the stock firmware, it means that
the OpenWrt factory image has been installed to the secondary
partitions and failed to boot (since OpenWrt on EA4500 v3 does not
support dual boot yet), and the router switched back to the stock
firmware on the primary partitions. You have to install a stock
firmware (e.g. 3.1.6.172023, downloadable from
https://www.linksys.com/support-article?articleNum=148385 ) first
(to the secondary partitions) , and after that, install OpenWrt
factory image (to the primary partitions). After successful
installation of OpenWrt, auto_recovery will be automatically
disabled and router will only boot from the primary partitions.

Several Broadcom targets were using the nand_do_upgrade_success
shell function which has been removed by commit e25e6d8e54
("base-files: fix and clean up nand sysupgrade code"). Refactor the
new nand_do_upgrade to bring back nand_do_upgrade_success with the
behavior expected by those users.

Hardware specification:
SoC: MediaTek MT7986A 4x A53
Flash: ESMT F50L1G41LB 128 MB
RAM: K4A4G165WF-BCWE 512 MB
Ethernet: 4x 10/100/1000 Mbps
WiFi1: MT7976GN 2.4GHz ax 4x4
WiFi2: MT7976AN 5GHz ax 4x4
Button: Mesh, Reset
Flash instructions:
1. Gain ssh and serial port access, see the link below:
https://openwrt.org/toh/xiaomi/redmi_ax6000#installation
2. Use ssh or serial port to log in to the router, and
execute the following command:
nvram set boot_wait=on
nvram set flag_boot_rootfs=0
nvram set flag_boot_success=1
nvram set flag_last_success=1
nvram set flag_try_sys1_failed=8
nvram set flag_try_sys2_failed=8
nvram commit
3. Set a static ip on the ethernet interface of your computer
(e.g. default: ip 192.168.31.100, gateway 192.168.31.1)
4. Download the initramfs image, rename it to initramfs.bin,
and host it with the tftp server.
5. Interrupt U-Boot and run these commands:
setenv mtdparts nmbm0:1024k(bl2),256k(Nvram),256k(Bdata),2048k(factory),2048k(fip),256k(crash),256k(crash_log),112640k(ubi)
saveenv
tftpboot initramfs.bin
bootm
6. After openwrt boots up, use scp or luci web
to upload sysupgrade.bin to upgrade.
Revert to stock firmware:
Restore mtdparts back to default, then use the
vendor's recovery tool (Windows only).

When firmware images only contained compressed kernels and squashfs roots,
uncompressed tar files were a good option. We are now using UBIFS images,
both raw and tarred, as well as ubinized (full UBI partition) images, all
of which benefit greatly from compression.
For example, a raw ubinized backup taken from a running Askey RT4230W REV6
(such full backups can be restored via the LUCI's sysupgrade UI) is over
400 MB, but compresses to less than 10 MB.
This commit adds support for gzipped versions of all file types already
accepted by the nand sysupgrade mechanism, be them raw or tarred.
Signed-off-by: Rodrigo Balerdi <lanchon@gmail.com>
It has been reported that ubinized nand sysupgrade fails under certain
circumstances, being unable to detach the existing ubi partition due to
volumes within the partition being mounted.
This is an attempt to solve such issues by unmounting and removing
ubiblock devices and unmounting ubi volumes within the target partition
prior to detaching and formatting it.

- Never return from 'nand_do_upgrade', not even in case of errors, as that
would cause execution of sysupgrade code not intended for NAND devices.
