The Netgear GS308T v1 is an 8 port gigabit switch. The GS310TP v1 is an 8
port POE+ gigabit switch with 2 SFP Ports (currently untested).
The GS308T v1 and GS310TP v1 are quite similar to the Netgear GS1xx
devices already supported. Theses two devices use the same Netgear
firmware and are very similar to there corresponding GS1xx devices. For
this reason they share a large portion of the device tree with the GS108T
and GS110TP with exception of the uimage magic and model and compatible
values.
All of the above feature a dual firmware layout, referred to as Image0
and Image1 in the Netgear firmware.
In order to manipulate the PoE+ on the GS310TP v1 , one needs the
rtl83xx-poe package

Installation
------------
Instructions are identical to those for the similar Negear devices
and apply both to the GS308T v1 and GS310TP v1 as well.

Boot initramfs image from U-Boot
--------------------------------
1. Press the Escape key at the `Hit Esc key to stop autoboot` prompt
2. Init network with `rtk network on` command
3. Load image with `tftpboot 0x8f000000
openwrt-realtek-generic-netgear_gs308t-v1-initramfs-kernel.bin` command
4. Boot the image with `bootm` command
The switch defaults to IP 192.168.1.1 and tries to fetch the image via
TFTP from 192.168.1.111.
Updating the installed firmware
-------------------------------
The OpenWRT ramdisk image can be flashed directly from the Netgear UI.
The Image0 slot should be used in order to enable sysupgrade.
As with similar switches, changing the active boot partition can be
accomplished in U-Boot as follows:
1. Press the Escape key at the `Hit Esc key to stop autoboot` prompt
2. Run `setsys bootpartition {0|1}` to select the boot partition
3. Run `savesys` followed by `boota` to proceed with the boot process

* Buttons: 1 on-off glide switch at the back (not configurable)
1 reset button at the right side, behind the air-vent
(not configurable)
1 reset button on front panel (configurable)
* Power 12V 1A barrel connector
* UART: 1 serial header (JP2) with populated standard pin connector on
the left side of the PCB, towards the back. Pins are labelled:
+ VCC (3.3V)
+ TX (really RX)
+ RX (really TX)
+ GND
the labelling is done from the usb2serial connector's point of
view, so RX/ TX are mixed up.
Serial connection parameters for both devices: 115200 8N1.
Installation
------------
Instructions are identical to those for the GS1900-10HP and GS1900-8HP.
* Configure your client with a static 192.168.1.x IP (e.g. 192.168.1.10).
* Set up a TFTP server on your client and make it serve the initramfs
image.
* Connect serial, power up the switch, interrupt U-boot by hitting the
space bar, and enable the network:
> rtk network on
* Since the GS1900-10HP is a dual-partition device, you want to keep the
OEM firmware on the backup partition for the time being. OpenWrt can
only boot off the first partition anyway (hardcoded in the DTS). To
make sure we are manipulating the first partition, issue the following
commands:
> setsys bootpartition 0
> savesys
* Download the image onto the device and boot from it:
> tftpboot 0x84f00000 192.168.1.10:openwrt-realtek-generic-zyxel_gs1900-8-initramfs-kernel.bin
> bootm
* Once OpenWrt has booted, scp the sysupgrade image to /tmp and flash it:
> sysupgrade /tmp/openwrt-realtek-generic-zyxel_gs1900-8-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

The Netgear GS108T v3 is an 8 port gigabit switch with PoE-PD support
on port 1. The two prior versions were built using eCos and are not
currently compatible with OpenWRT.
The GS108T v3 is quite similar to both the GS110TPP v1 and GS110TP v3,
all of which use the same firmware image from Netgear. For this reason,
the device tree is identical aside from the model and compatible values.

Append a device specific version trailer used by the stock
firmware upgrade application to validate firmwares.
The trailer contains a list of ZyXEL firmware version
numbers, which includes a four letter hardware identifier.
The stock web UI requires that the current hardware matches
one of the listed versions, and that the version number is
larger than a model specific minimum value. The minimum
version varies between V1.00 and V2.60 for the currently
known GS1900 models. The number is not used anywhere else
to our knowlege, and has no direct relation to the version
info in the u-image header. We can therefore use an
arbitrary value larger than V2.60.
The stock firmware upgrade application will only load and
flash the part of the file specified in the u-image header,
regardless of file size. It can therefore not be used to
flash images with an appended rootfs. There is therefore no
need to include the trailer in other images than the
initramfs. This prevents accidentally bricking by attempts
to flash other images from the stock web UI.
Stock images support all models in the series, listing
all of them in the version trailer. OpenWrt provide model
specific images. We therefore only list the single supported
hardware identifier for each image. This eliminates the risk
of flashing the wrong OpenWrt image from stock web UI.
OpenWrt can be installed from stock firmware in two steps:
1) flash OpenWrt initramfs image from stock web gui
2) boot OpenWrt and sysupgrade to a squasfs image
The OpenWrt squashfs image depends on a static partition
map in the DTS. It can only be installed to the "firmware"
partition. This partition is labeled "RUNTIME1" in u-boot
and in stock firmware, and is referred to as "image 0" in
the stock flash management tool. The OpenWrt initramfs
can be installed and run from either partitions. But if
you want to keep stock irmware in the spare system partition,
then you must make sure stock firmware is installed to the
"RUNTIME2" partition referred to as "image 1" in the stock
web UI. And the initial OpenWrt initramfs must be flashed
to "RUNTIME1"/"image 0".
The stock flash management application supports direct
selection of both which partition to flash and which
partition to boot next. This allows software controlled
"dual-boot" between OpenWrt and stock firmware, without
using console access to u-boot. u-boot use the "bootpartition"
variable stored in the second u-boot environment to select
which of the two system partitions to boot. This variable
is set by the stock flash management application, by direct
user input. It can also be set in OpenWrt using e.g
fw_setsys bootpartition 1
to select "RUNTIME2"/"image 1" as default, assuming a
stock firmware version is installed in that partition.

The stock firmware of the ZyXEL GS1900 series use a non-standard
u-image magic. This is not enforced by the stock u-boot, which is
why we could boot images with the default magic. The flash
management application of the stock firmware will however verify
the magic, and refuse any image with another value.
Convert to vendor-specific value to get flash management support
in stock firmware, including the ability to upgrade to OpenWrt
directly from stock web UI.

The majority of our targets provide a default value for the variable
SUPPORTED_DEVICES, which is used in images to check against the
compatible on a running device:
SUPPORTED_DEVICES := $(subst _,$(comma),$(1))
At the moment, this is implemented in the Device/Default block of
the individual targets or even subtargets. However, since we
standardized device names and compatible in the recent past, almost
all targets are following the same scheme now:
device/image name: vendor_model
compatible: vendor,model
The equal redundant definitions are a symptom of this process.
Consequently, this patch moves the definition to image.mk making it
a global default. For the few targets not using the scheme above,
SUPPORTED_DEVICES will be defined to a different value in
Device/Default anyway, overwriting the default. In other words:
This change is supposed to be cosmetic.
This can be used as a global measure to get the current compatible
with: $(firstword $(SUPPORTED_DEVICES))
(Though this is not precisely an achievement of this commit.)

The ZyXEL GS1900-8HP is an 8 port gigabit switch with PoE+ support.
There are two versions on the market (v1 & v2) which share similar
specs (same flash size and flash layout, same RAM size, same PoE+ power
envelope) but have a different case and board layout that they each
share with other GS1900 siblings.
The v1 seems to share its PCB and case with non-PoE GS1900-8; as such,
adding support for the GS1900-8 would probably be trivial. The v2 seems
to share its casing and platform with its already supported bigger
brother, the GS1900-10HP - its board looks the same, except for two
holes where the GS1900-10 has its SFP ports.
Like their 10 port sibling, both devices have a dual firmware layout.
Both GS1900-8HP boards have the same 70W PoE+ power budget. In order to
manipulate the PoE+, one needs the rtl83xx-poe package [1].
After careful consideration it was decided to go with separate images
for each version.
