Similar to mt7623, also no longer use 'blockdev' and stop relying on
in-kernel partition parsers. Instead, strip off all metadata using
'fwtool' while writing the firmware image and scrape the number of
blocks written from 'dd', then use that block offset to stash the
configuration backup.
Signed-off-by: Daniel Golle <daniel@makrotopia.org>
Re-reading the partition table doesn't work reliably, it fails if
anything on the device is still in use and it's not trivial to prevent
every possible case of a block device still being in use somehow.
Therefore, instead of relying on the in-kernel partition parser to know
where to write the configuration backup, use OpenWrt's format-agnostic
fwtool to strip off all metadata from the image and count its blocks
while writing. In that way we can know where to write the config backup
without needing the kernel to parse the MBR and FIT structures.

This will load the image and not write it into the flash.
1. Stop boot menu with "space" key
2. Select "System Load Linux to SDRAM via TFTP."
3. Load this image:
openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-buffalo_wsr-2533dhp2-initramfs-kernel.bin
4. The system boots the image
Write to flash from U-Boot
-----------------------------
This will load the image over tftp and directly write it into the flash.
1. Stop boot menu with "space" key
2. Select "System Load Linux Kernel then write to Flash via TFTP."
3. Load this image:
openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-buffalo_wsr-2533dhp2-squashfs-factory-uboot.bin
4. The system writes this image into the flash and boots into it.
Write to flash from Web UI
-----------------------------
This will load the image over over the Web UI and write it into the flash
1. Open the Web UI
2. Go to "管理" -> "ファームウェア更新"
3. Select "ローカルファイル指定" and click "更新実行"
4. Load this image:
openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-buffalo_wsr-2533dhp2-squashfs-factory.bin

**What's new**
* Bring support for the Bananapi BPi-R64 to the level desirable for
a nice hackable routerboard.
* Use ARM Trusted Firmware A from source. (goodbye binary preloader)
* Use Das U-Boot from source. (see previous commit)
* Assemble SD-card image using OpenWrt image-commands.
(no gen_sd_cruz_foo.sh added, this is not Raspbian)
* Updated kernel options to support root filesystem.
* Updated DTS to match OpenWrt LAN ports, known LEDs, buttons, ...
* Detect root device, handle sysupgrade, config restore, ...
* Wire up (known) LEDs and buttons in OpenWrt-fashion.
* Build one set of images from SD-card and eMMC.
* Hopefully provide a good example of how things can be done right
from scratch.
**Installation and images**
* Have an empty SD-card at hand
* Write stuff to the card, as root (card device is /dev/mmcblkX)
- write header, gpt, bl2, atf, u-boot and recovery kernel:
`cat *bpi-r64-boot-sdcard.img *bpi-r64-initramfs-recovery.fit > /dev/mmcblkX`
- rescan partitions:
`blockdev --rereadpt /dev/mmcblkX`
- write main system to production partition:
`cat *bpi-r64-squashfs-sysupgrade.fit > /dev/mmcblkXp5`
* Installation to eMMC works using SD-card bootloader via TFTP
When running OpenWrt of SD-card, issue this to trigger installation
to eMMC:
`fw_setenv bootcmd run emmc_init`
Be prepared to serve the content of bin/targets/mediatek/mt7622 on
TFTP server address 192.168.1.254.
**What's missing**
* The red LED is always on, probably a hardware bug.
* AHCI (probably needs DTS changes)
* Ship SD-card image ready with every needed for eMMC install.
* The eMMC has a second, currently unused boot partition. This would
be ideal to store the WiFi EEPROM and Ethernet MAC address(es).
@sinovoip ideas?

The vendor flash layout of the Linksys E8450 is problematic as it uses
the SPI-NAND chip without any wear-leveling while at the same time
wasting a lot of space for padding.
Use an all-UBI layout instead, storing the kernel+dtb+squashfs in
uImage.FIT standard format in UBI volume 'fit', the read-write
overlay in UBI volume 'rootfs_data' as well as reduntant U-Boot
environments 'ubootenv' and 'ubootenv2', and a 'recovery'
kernel+dtb+initramfs uImage.FIT for dual-boot.
** WARNING **
THIS PROCEDURE CAN EASILY BRICK YOUR DEVICE PERMANENTLY IF NOT CARRIED
OUT VERY CAREFULLY AND EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED!
Step 0
* Configure your PC to have the static IPv4 address 192.168.1.254/24
* Provide bin/targets/mediatek/mt7622 via TFTP
Now continue EITHER with step 1A or 1B, depending on your preference
(and on having serial console wired up or not).
Step 1A (Using the vendor web interface (or non-UBI OpenWrt install))
In order to update to the new bootloader and UBI-based firmware,
use the web browser of your choice to open the routers web-interface
accessible on http://192.168.1.1
* Navigate to
'Configuration' -> 'Administration' -> 'Firmware Upgrade'
* Upload the file
openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-initramfs-recovery.itb
and proceed with the upgrade.
* Once OpenWrt comes up, use SCP to upload the new bootloader files to
/tmp on the router:
*-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-preloader.bin
*-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-bl31-uboot.fip
* Connect via SSH as you will now need to replace the bootloader in
the Flash.
ssh root@192.168.1.1
(the usual warnings)
* First of all, backup all the flash now:
for mtd in /dev/mtdblock*; do
dd if=$mtd of=/tmp/$(basename $mtd);
done
* Then use SCP to copy /tmp/mtdblock* from the router and keep them
safe. You will need them should you ever want to return to the
factory firmware!
* Now flow the uploaded files:
mtd -e /dev/mtd0 write /tmp/*linksys_e8450-ubi-preloader.bin /dev/mtd0
mtd -e /dev/mtd1 write /tmp/*linksys_e8450-ubi-bl31-uboot.fip /dev/mtd1
If and only if both writes look like the completed successfully
reboot the router. Now continue with step 2.
Step 1B (Using the vendor bootloader serial console)
* Use the serial to backup all /dev/mtd* devices before using the
stock firmware (you got root shell when connected to serial).
* Then reboot and select 'U-Boot Console' in the boot menu.
* Copy the following lines, one by one:
tftpboot 0x40080000 openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-preloader.bin
tftpboot 0x40100000 openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-bl31-uboot.fip
nand erase 0x0 0x180000
nand write 0x40080000 0x0 0x180000
reset
Now continue with step 2
Step 2
Once the new bootchain comes up, the loader will initialize UBI and the
ubootenv volumes. It will then of course fail to find any bootable
volume and hence resort to load kernel via TFTP from server
192.168.1.254 while giving itself the address 192.168.1.1
The requested file is called
openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-initramfs-recovery.itb
and your TFTP server should provide exactly that :)
It will be written to UBI as recovery image and booted.
You can then continue and flash the production OS image, either
by using sysupgrade in the booted initramfs recovery OS, or by using
the bootloader menu and TFTP.
That's it. Go ahead and mess around with a bootchain built almost
completely from source (only DRAM calibration blobs are fitted in bl2,
and the irreplacable on-chip ROM loader remains, of course).
And enjoy U-Boot built with many great features out-of-the-box.
You can access the bootloader environment from within OpenWrt using the
'fw_printenv' and 'fw_setenv' commands. Don't be afraid, once you got
the new bootchain installed the device should be fairly unbrickable
(holding reset button before and during power-on resets things and
allows reflashing recovery image via TFTP)
Special thanks to @dvn0 (Devan Carpenter) for providing amazingly fast
infra for test-builds, allowing for `make clean ; make -j$(nproc)` in
less than two minutes :)

MediaTek targets always use U-Boot's modern uImage.FIT format which
allows bundling several blobs into a single file including hashes,
descriptions and more. In fact, we are already using that to bundle
the Flattened Device Tree blob with the kernel on this and many
other targets.
In the same fashion, we can now make use of the newly introduced
support for building seperate ramdisk to uImage.FIT with a dedicated
initrd blob checked and loaded by U-Boot instead of embedding the
cpio archive into the kernel itself.
This allows for having larger ramdisks, choosing ramdisk compression
independently of kernel compression (while only kernel is decompressed
by the bootloader) and for more easily replacing or modifying the
filesystem contained in an initramfs image.

Use dedicated dts folder like on ramips to store device tree source
files for boards not already supported in vanilla Linux.
Doing so instead of having them in files-* has several advantages:
* we don't need to duplicate them for several kernel versions
* changes to a device tree don't trigger a complete kernel rebuild
* the files are more obvious to find

Opening the case
----------------
Opening the case is not a nice task, as itis glued together. Insert a
flat knife between the front and back casing below the ethernet port.
Open up a gap this way and insert a flat scredriver, remove the knife.
Work your way around the casing by applying force to seperate the front
and back casing. This losens the glue and opens the plastic clips. Be
gentle, as these clips are very cheap and break quickly.
Installation
------------
1. Connect to the booted device at 192.168.1.20 using username/password
"ubnt".
2. Transfer the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to the device using SCP.
3. Check the mtd partition number for bs / kernel0 / kernel1
$ cat /proc/mtd
4. Set the bootselect flag to boot from kernel0
$ dd if=/dev/zero bs=1 count=1 of=/dev/mtdblock6
5. Write the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to both kernel0 as well as kernel1
$ dd if=openwrt.bin of=/dev/mtdblock8
$ dd if=openwrt.bin of=/dev/mtdblock9
6. Reboot the device. It should boot into OpenWrt.

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.)
