Kernel 5.15 introduced a significant change to spi-nor subsystem [1],
which would the SPI-NOR core to no longer unprotect the Flash chips if
their protection bits are non-volatile, which is the case for MX25L6405D
and MX25L12805D, used in Ubiquiti XW and WA lines of devices [2].
However, their bootloader forcibly enables this protection before
continuing to boot, making the kernel not unprotect the flash upon boot,
causing JFFS2 to be unable write to the filesystem. Because sysupgrade
seems to unlock the flash explicitly, the upgrade will work, but the
system will be unable to save configrationm showing the following symptom
in the kernel log:
[ 86.168016] jffs2_scan_eraseblock(): End of filesystem marker found at 0x0
[ 86.192344] jffs2_build_filesystem(): unlocking the mtd device...
[ 86.192443] done.

[ 86.402855] jffs2: Newly-erased block contained word 0x19852003 at offset 0x001a0000
Disable the write protection unconditionally for ath79/generic subtarget,
so the XW and WA devices can function again. However, this is only a
stopgap solution - it probably should be investigated if there is a way
to selectively unlock the area used by rootfs_data - but given the lock
granularity, this seems unlikely.
With this patch in place, rootfs_data partition on my Nanostation Loco
M5 XW is writable again.

Now that MAC address parser supports the hex format (without
delimiters), use the canonical MAC address stored in U-boot partition.
Get rid of the userspace adjustments which are no longer necessary.
While at that, move the mac-base to the common part, as it is again
exactly the same in both models.
And convert ART partition too - keep that one separate, as calibration
data length differs between the models.

Installation: The same methods apply as for already supported FAP-221-B.
For both methods, a backup of flash partitions is recommended, as stock firmware
is not freely available on the internet.
(a) Using factory image:
1. Connect console cable to the console port
2. Connect Ethernet interface to your PC
3. Start preferred terminal at 9600-8-N-1
4. Have a TFTP server running on the PC.
5. Put the "factory" image in TFTP root
6. Power on the device
7. Break boot sequence by pressing "Ctrl+C"
8. Press "G". The console will ask you for device IP, server IP, and filename.
Enter them appropriately.
The defaults are:
Server IP: 192.168.1.1 # Update accordingly
Device IP: 192.168.1.2 # Update accordingly
Image file: image.out # Use for example: openwrt-ath79-generic-fortinet_fap-220-b-squashfs-factory.bin
9. The device will load the firmware over TFTP, and verify it. When
verification passes, press "D" to continue installation. The device
will reboot on completion.
(b) Using initramfs + sysupgrade
1. Connect console cable to the console port
2. Connect Ethernet interface to your PC
3. Start preferred terminal at 9600-8-N-1
4. Have a TFTP server running on the PC.
5. Put the "initramfs" image in TFTP root
6. Power on the device.
7. Break boot sequence by pressing "Ctrl+C"
8. Enter hidden U-boot shell by pressing "K". The password is literal "1".
9. Load the initramfs over TFTP:

10. (Optional) Copy over contents of at least "fwconcat0", "loader", and "fwconcat1"
partitions, to allow restoring factory firmware in future:
# cat /dev/mtd1 > /tmp/mtd1_fwconcat0.bin
# cat /dev/mtd2 > /tmp/mtd2_loader.bin
# cat /dev/mtd3 > /tmp/mtd3_fwconcat1.bin
and then SCP them over to safety at your PC.
11. When the device boots, copy over the sysupgrade image, and execute
normal upgrade:
# sysupgrade openwrt-ath79-generic-fortinet_fap-220-b-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
Return to stock firmware:
1. Boot initramfs image as per initial installation up to point 9
2. Copy over the previously backed up contents over network
3. Write the backed up contents back:
# mtd write /tmp/mtd1_fwconcat0.bin fwconcat0
# mtd write /tmp/mtd2_loader.bin loader
# mtd write /tmp/mtd3_fwconcat1.bin fwconcat1
4. Erase the reserved partition:
# mtd erase reserved
5. Reboot the device
Quirks and known issues:
- The power LED blinking pattern is disrupted during boot, probably due
to very slow serial console, which prints a lot during boot compared
to stock FW.
- "mac-address-ascii" device tree binding cannot yet be used for address
stored in U-boot partition, because it expects the colons as delimiters,
which this address lacks. Addresses found in ART partition are used
instead.
- Due to using kmod-owl-loader, the device will lack wireless interfaces
while in initramfs, unless you compile it in.
- The device heats up A LOT on the bottom, even when idle. It even
contains a warning sticker there.
- Stock firmware uses a fully read-write filesystem for its rootfs.
- Stock firmware loads a lot of USB-serial converter drivers for use
with built-in host, probably meant for hosting modem devices.
- U-boot build of the device is stripped of all branding, despite that
evidence of it (obviously) being U-boot can be found in the binary.
- The user can break into hidden U-boot shell using key "K" after
breaking boot sequence. The password is "1" (without quotes).
- Telnet is available by default, with login "admin", without password.
The same is true for serial console, both drop straight to the Busybox
shell.
- The web interface drops to the login page again, after successfull
login.
- Whole image authentication boils down to comparing a device ID against
one stored in U-boot.
- And this device is apparently made by a security company.
Big thanks for Michael Pratt for providing support for FAP-221-B, which
shares the entirety of image configuration with this device, this saved
me a ton of work.

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.

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:

- 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:

----------
Pin 1 is near the "H1" marking.
1 - RX
x - no pin
3 - VCC (3.3V)
4 - GND
5 - TX
Installation:
- Using serial console - requires some disassembly, 3.3V USB-Serial
adapter, TFTP server, and removing a single PH1 screw.
0. Connect serial console to H1 header. Ensure the serial converter
does not back-power the board, otherwise it will fail to boot.
1. Power-on the board. Then quickly connect serial converter to PC and
hit Ctrl+C in the terminal to break boot sequence. If you're lucky,
you'll enter U-boot shell. Then skip to point 3.
Connection parameters are 115200-8-N-1.
2. Allow the board to boot. Press the reset button, so the board
reboots into U-boot again and go back to point 1.
3. Set the "bootcmd" variable to disable the dual-boot feature of the
system and ensure that uImage is loaded. This is critical step, and
needs to be done only on initial installation.
> setenv bootcmd "bootm 0xbf040000"
> saveenv
4. Boot the OpenWrt initramfs using TFTP. Replace IP addresses as needed.
Use the Gigabit interface, Fast Ethernet ports are not supported
under U-boot:
> setenv serverip 192.168.1.2
> setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
> tftpboot 0x81000000 openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7363-initramfs-kernel.bin
> bootm 0x81000000
5. Optional, but highly recommended: back up contents of "firmware" partition:
$ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd1 > ruckus_zf7363_fw_backup.bin
6. Copy over sysupgrade image, and perform actual installation. OpenWrt
shall boot from flash afterwards:
$ ssh root@192.168.1.1
# sysupgrade -n openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7363-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
After unit boots, it should be available at the usual 192.168.1.1/24.
Return to factory firmware:
1. Copy over the backup to /tmp, for example using scp
2. Unset the "bootcmd" variable:
fw_setenv bootcmd ""
3. Use sysupgrade with force to restore the backup:
sysupgrade -F ruckus_zf7363_backup.bin
4. System will reboot.
Quirks and known issues:
- Fast Ethernet ports on ZF7363 and ZF7343 are supported, but management
features of the RTL8363S switch aren't implemented yet, though the
switch is visible over MDIO0 bus. This is a gigabit-capable switch, so
link establishment with a gigabit link partner may take a longer time
because RTL8363S advertises gigabit, and the port magnetics don't
support it, so a downshift needs to occur. Both ports are accessible
at eth1 interface, which - strangely - runs only at 100Mbps itself.
- Flash layout is changed from the factory, to use both firmware image
partitions for storage using mtd-concat, and uImage format is used to
actually boot the system, which rules out the dual-boot capability.
- Both radio has its own EEPROM on board, not connected to CPU.
- The stock firmware has dual-boot capability, which is not supported in
OpenWrt by choice.
It is controlled by data in the top 64kB of RAM which is unmapped,
to avoid the interference in the boot process and accidental
switch to the inactive image, although boot script presence in
form of "bootcmd" variable should prevent this entirely.
- On some versions of stock firmware, it is possible to obtain root shell,
however not much is available in terms of debugging facitilies.
1. Login to the rkscli
2. Execute hidden command "Ruckus"
3. Copy and paste ";/bin/sh;" including quotes. This is required only
once, the payload will be stored in writable filesystem.
4. Execute hidden command "!v54!". Press Enter leaving empty reply for
"What's your chow?" prompt.
5. Busybox shell shall open.
Source: https://alephsecurity.com/vulns/aleph-2019014
- There is second method to achieve root shell, using command injection
in the web interface:
1. Login to web administration interface
2. Go to Administration > Diagnostics
3. Enter |telnetd${IFS}-p${IFS}204${IFS}-l${IFS}/bin/sh into "ping"
field
4. Press "Run test"
5. Telnet to the device IP at port 204

After unit boots, it should be available at the usual 192.168.1.1/24.
Return to factory firmware:
1. Copy over the backup to /tmp, for example using scp
2. Unset the "bootcmd" variable:
fw_setenv bootcmd ""
3. Use sysupgrade with force to restore the backup:
sysupgrade -F ruckus_zf7351_backup.bin
4. System will reboot.
Quirks and known issues:
- Flash layout is changed from the factory, to use both firmware image
partitions for storage using mtd-concat, and uImage format is used to
actually boot the system, which rules out the dual-boot capability.
- Both radio has its own EEPROM on board, not connected to CPU.
- The stock firmware has dual-boot capability, which is not supported in
OpenWrt by choice.
It is controlled by data in the top 64kB of RAM which is unmapped,
to avoid the interference in the boot process and accidental
switch to the inactive image, although boot script presence in
form of "bootcmd" variable should prevent this entirely.
- On some versions of stock firmware, it is possible to obtain root shell,
however not much is available in terms of debugging facitilies.
1. Login to the rkscli
2. Execute hidden command "Ruckus"
3. Copy and paste ";/bin/sh;" including quotes. This is required only
once, the payload will be stored in writable filesystem.
4. Execute hidden command "!v54!". Press Enter leaving empty reply for
"What's your chow?" prompt.
5. Busybox shell shall open.

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

Although VLANs are used, the "eth0" device by itself
does not have a valid MAC, so fix that with preinit script.
More initvals added by editing the driver to print switch registers,
after the bootloader sets them but before openwrt changes them.
The register bits needed 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));

This allows us to move the userspace caldata extraction for the pci-e ath9k

Currently, "mac-address-ascii" cells only works for ethernet and wmac devices,

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
