The Linksys EA8300 is based on QCA4019 and QCA9888 and provides three,
independent radios. NAND provides two, alternate kernel/firmware
images with fail-over provided by the OEM U-Boot.
Installation:
"Factory" images may be installed directly through the OEM GUI.
Hardware Highlights:
* IPQ4019 at 717 MHz (4 CPUs)
* 256 MB NAND (Winbond W29N02GV, 8-bit parallel)
* 256 MB RAM
* Three, fully-functional radios; `iw phy` reports (FCC/US, -CT):
* 2.4 GHz radio at 30 dBm
* 5 GHz radio on ch. 36-64 at 23 dBm
* 5 GHz radio on ch. 100-144 at 23 dBm (DFS), 149-165 at 30 dBm
#{ managed } <= 16, #{ AP, mesh point } <= 16, #{ IBSS } <= 1
* All two-stream, MCS 0-9
* 4x GigE LAN, 1x GigE Internet Ethernet jacks with port lights
* USB3, single port on rear with LED
* WPS and reset buttons
* Four status lights on top
* Serial pads internal (unpopulated)
"Linksys Dallas WiFi AP router based on Qualcomm AP DK07.1-c1"
Implementation Notes:
The OEM flash layout is preserved at this time with 3 MB kernel and
~69 MB UBIFS for each firmware version. The sysdiag (1 MB) and
syscfg (56 MB) partitions are untouched, available as read-only.
Serial Connectivity:
Serial connectivity is *not* required to flash.
Serial may be accessed by opening the device and connecting
a 3.3-V adapter using 115200, 8n1. U-Boot access is good,
including the ability to load images over TFTP and
either run or flash them.
Looking at the top of the board, from the front of the unit,
J3 can be found on the right edge of the board, near the rear

Other Notes:
https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Linksys_EA8300 states
FCC docs also cover the Linksys EA8250. According to the
RF Test Report BT BR+EDR, "All models are identical except
for the EA8300 supports 256QAM and the EA8250 disable 256QAM."

This package provides board-specific reference ("cal") data
on an interim basis until included in the upstream distros
While originally conceived for IPQ4019-based boards, similar needs
are appearing with three-radio devices. For some of these devices,
both a board-2.bin file needs to be supplied both for the IPQ4019
as well as for the other radio on the board.
This patch allows new or multiple overrides to be specified by:
* Adding board name to ALLWIFIBOARDS
* Placing file(s) in this directory named as
board-<devicename>.<qca4019|qca9888|qca9984>
* Adding
$(eval $(call generate-ipq-wifi-package,<device>,<display name>))
(along with suitable package selection for the board)
At this time, QCA4019, QCA9888, and QCA9984 are supported.
Extension to other chips should be straightforward.
The existing files, board-*.bin, are "grandfathered" as QCA4019.
The package name has been retained for compatability reasons.
At this time it DEPENDS:=@TARGET_ipq40xx, limiting its visibility.

Release notes since last time:
Release notes for wave-1:
2019-04-02: Support some get/set API for eeprom rate power tables.
Mostly backported from 10.2
2019-04-02: Support adaptive-CCA, backported from 10.2
2019-04-02: Support adding eeprom configAddr pairs via the
set-special API. These configAddrs can be used to change
the default register settings for up to 12 registers.
2019-05-03: Fix tx-power settings for 2x2, 3x3 rates.
Original logic I put in back in 2016 set 2x2 and 3x3 lower
than the needed to be when using most NICs (very high
powered NICs would not have been affected I think, not sure
any of those exist though.)
This improves throughput for 2x2 and 3x3 devices,
especially when the signal is weaker.
Release notes for wave-2:
2019-04-08: When setting keys, if high bit of high value of
key_rsc_counter is set to 0x1, then the lower 48 bits will
be used as the PN value. By default, PN is set to 1 each
time the key is set.
2019-04-08: Pack PN into un-used 'excretries' aka
'num_pkt_loss_excess_retry' high 16 bits.
This lets us report peer PN, but *only* if driver has
previously set a PN when setting key (or set-special cmd is
used to enable PN reporting).
This is done so that we know the driver is recent
enough to deal with the PN stat reporting.
2019-04-16: Support specifying tx rate on a per-beacon packet.
See ath10k_wmi_op_gen_beacon_dma and
ath10k_convert_hw_rate_to_rate_info for API details.
Driver needs additional work to actually enable this
feature currently.
2019-04-30: Compile out tx-prefetch caching logic.
It is full of tricky bugs that cause tx hangs.
I fixed at least one, but more remain and I have wasted too
much time on this already.
2019-05-08: Start rate-ctrl at mcs-3 instead of mcs-5.
This significantly helps DHCP happen quickly, probably
because the initial rate being too high would take a while
to ramp down, especially since there are few packets sent
by the time DHCP needs to start.
This bug was triggered by me decreasing retries of 0x1e
(upstream default) to 0x4. But, I think it is better to
start with lower initial MCS instead of always having a
very high retry count.

Added basic support to get the device up and running for a sysupgrade
image only.
There is currently no way back to factory firmware, so this is a one-way
street to OpenWRT.
Install from factory condition is convoluted, and may brick your device:
1) Enable SSH and disable the CLI on the factory device from the web user
interface (Management->Advanced)
2) Reboot the device
3) Override the default, limited SSH shell:
a) Get into the ssh shell:
ssh admin@192.168.1.1 /bin/sh --login
b) Change the dropbear script to disable the limited shell. At the
empty command prompt type:
sed -i '/login_ssh/s/^/#/g’ dropbear
/etc/init.d/dropbear restart
exit
4) ssh in to a (now-) normal OpenWRT SSH session
5) Flash your built image
a) scp openwrt-ipq40xx-engenius_ens620ext-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
admin@192.168.1.1:/tmp/
b) ssh admin@192.168.1.1
c) sysupgrade -n
/tmp/openwrt-ipq40xx-engenius_ens620ext-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
6) After flash completes (it may say "Upgrade failed" followed by
"Upgrade completed") and device reboots, log in to newly flashed
system. Note you will now need to ssh as root rather than admin.

wave-2 firmware:
* Feb 27. 2019: Support up to 32 AP vdevs. Previous to this, stack would
be corrupted if you went past 16 AP vdevs.
* Feb 28, 2019: Support beacon-tx-wmi callback message. This lets driver
properly clean up beacon buffers. In wave-1, this could
crash the entire OS, but I didn't see the same crashes
in wave-2, so maybe it is fixed in some other way. Add

* Jan 24, 2019
The rcSibUpdate method can be called concurrently with IRQ tx-completion callback,
and that could potentially allow the tx-completion callback to see invalid state
and assert or otherwise mess up the rate-ctrl logic. So, disable IRQs in
rcSibUpdate to prevent this. Related to bug 58.

Better use of temporary rate-ctrl object. Make sure it is initialized, simplify
code path. This finishes up porting forward similar changes I made for wave-1
firmware long ago, and fixes another potential way to hit bug-58 issues.
* Jan 30, 2019
Cachemgr did not have a callback for when memory was logically freed. This means
that peers could keep stale references to rate-ctrl objects that were in process
of being DMA'd into to load a different peer's rate-ctrl state. This was causing
the bugcheck logic to fail early and often, and I suspect it might be a root cause
of bug 58 as well. The fix is to add a callback and set any 'deleted' memory references
to NULL so that we cannot access it accidentally. Thanks to excellent logs and patience
from the bug-58 reporter!

1. Load Ramdisk via U-Boot
To set up the flash memory environment, do the following:
a. As a preliminary step, ensure that the board console port is connected to the PC using these RS232 parameters:
* 115200bps
* 8N1
b. Confirm that the PC is connected to the board using one of the Ethernet ports. Set a static ip 192.168.99.8 for Ethernet that connects to board. The PC must have a TFTP server launched and listening on the interface to which the board is connected. At this stage power up the board and, after a few seconds, press 4 and then any key during the countdown.
U-BOOT> set serverip 192.168.99.8 && set ipaddr 192.168.99.9 && tftpboot 0x84000000 openwrt.itb && bootm
2. Load image via GUI
a. Upgrade EAP1300 to FW v3.5.3.2
In the GUI, System Manager > Firmware > Firmware Upgrade, to do upgrade.
b. Transfer to OpenWrt from EnGenius.
In Firmware Upgrade page, to upgrade yours openwrt-ipq40xx-engenius_eap1300-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin.
3. Revert to EnGenius EAP1300
To flash openwrt-ipq40xx-engenius_eap1300-squashfs-factory.bin by using sysupgrade command and "DO NOT" keep configuration.
$ sysupgrade –n openwrt-ipq40xx-engenius_eap1300-squashfs-factory.bin

It is not necessary to have iucode-tool present on target system to have
functional intel-microcode package. The build time dependency is kept.

The BDFs for all boards were upstreamed to the ath10k-firmware
repository and linux-firmware.git.
We switched to the upstream board-2.bin, hence the files can be removed
here.
Keep the ipq-wifi package in case new boards are added. It might take
some time till board-2.bins send upstream are merged.

Kalles ath10k PR was finally merged so update linux-firmware to
include those changes.
This is needed since disabling ath10k-firmware a lot of custom BDF-s
in board-2.bin-s are not available in previously outdated linux-firmware
board-2.bin-s.
This also includes support for boards currently using ipq-wifi and other
WIP ones.
Runtime tested on 8devices Jalapeno.

Building ls-dpl package requires the dtc tool. This patch
is to support using linux dtc tool for ls-dpl package.
This avoids compile issue when host system doesn't have
the dtc tool.

ls1012afrdm was no longer supported in NXP Layerscape SDK.
Instead a new board ls1012afrwy was introduced in LSDK.
This patch is to drop ls1012afrdm and add ls1012afrwy support.
Since only 2MB NOR flash could be used, we just put u-boot
and firmware on NOR flash, and put kernel/dtb/rootfs on SD
card.
The Layerscape FRWY-LS1012A board is an ultra-low-cost
development platform for LS1012A Series Communication
Processors built on Arm Cortex-A53. This tool refines the
FRDM-LS1012A with more features for a better hands-on experience
for IoT, edge computing, and various advanced embedded
applications. Features include easy access to processor I/O,
low-power operation, micro SD card storage, an M2 connector, a
small form factor, and expansion board options via mikroBUS Click
Module. The MicroBUS Module provides easy expansion via hundreds
of powerful modules supporting sensors, actuators, memories,
and displays.

NOR/QSPI Flash on Layerscape board only has limited 64MB memory size.
Since some boards (ls1043ardb/ls1046ardb/ls1088ardb/ls1021atwr)
could support SD card boot, we added SD boot support for them to put
all things on SD card to meet large memory requirement.

This patch is to update ls-ppa to LSDK-18.06 release
and to rework ls-ppa makefile to make it more readable.

The rcw source code had been migrated to codeaurora
for LSDK-18.06 release and the future release. The
source code had also involved ls1012ardb/ls1012afrdm/
ls1088ardb/ls2088ardb rcw, so we updated ls-rcw to
LSDK-18.06, reworked the makefile and dropped ls-rcw-bin
package in this patch. Also reworked ls-rcw patch to
adapt to the latest source code.
