OpenWRT Installation
1. Simplest way is just do upgrade from webpage with *factory.img
2. You can also do it with standard tool for Netgear's debricking - NMPRFlash
3. Most advanced way is to open device , connect to UART console and :
- Prepare OpenWrt initramfs image in TFTP server root (server IP 192.168.1.10)
- Connect serial console (115200,8n1) to UART connector
- Connect TFTP server to RJ-45 port
- Stop in u-Boot and run u-Boot command:
> setenv serverip 192.168.1.10
> set fdt_high 0x85000000
> tftpboot 0x83000000 openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-netgear_lbr20-initramfs-zImage.itb
> bootm 0x83000000
- Login via ssh
- upload or download *sysupgrade.bin ( like wget ... or scp transfer)
- Install image via "sysupgrade -n" (like “sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-netgear_lbr20-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin”)
Back to Stock
- Download firmware from official Netgear's webpage , it will be *.img file after decompressing.
- Use NMRPFlash tool ( detailed insructions on project page https://github.com/jclehner/nmrpflash )
Open the case
- Unscrew nuts and remove washers from antenna's conectors.
- There are two Torx T10 screws under the label next to antenna conectors. You have to unglue this label from left and right corner to get it
- Two parts of shell covers will slide out from eachother , you have to unglue two small rubber pads and namplate sticker on bottom to do that.
- PCB is screwed with 4Pcs of Torx T10 screws
- Before lifting up PCB remove pigtiles for LTE antennas and release them from PCB and radiator (black and white wires)
- On other side of PCB ,in left bottom corner there is already soldered with 4 pins UART connector for console. Counting from left it is +3,3V , TX , RX ,GND (reffer to this picture: https://i.ibb.co/Pmrf9KB/20240116-103524.jpg )

When both variants of ath10k drivers are selected, any driver that is
selected along is being built twice, one for each ath10k variant.
Avoid these redundant builds by introducing an optional second parameter
to config_package that lists the variants for which the package is to be
built.
If the symbol is to be set for all of the variants, $(ALL_VARIANTS) can
be used. This is the case for the mac80211 and cfg80211 modules. If
the parameter is empty, then the module will be selected and thus built
when the first variant is compiled.
Signed-off-by: Eneas U de Queiroz <cotequeiroz@gmail.com>
Having different build directories is the default when the package
Makefile defines more than one variant.
Mac80211 overrides PKG_BUILD_DIR, not taking different variants in
consideration, which causes clobbering the directories when both
variants are built.
When compiled with AUTOREMOVE=y, the effect is that the package is
unnecessarily rebuilt when the package is compiled again.
Wihout AUTOREMOVE, the problem is worse: the second variant will not be
rebuilt, and you end up with the smallbuffers variant being a copy of
the regular one.

Usage of word "add" was somehow misleading in those functions:
1. They don't really add (as in: append) anything. Result files are
created from scratch.
2. It wasn't clear what adding files means. It could be understood as
adding actual files somewhere (to existing archive?).
Also the word "add" was also a bit ambiguous.

This reverts commit 4fa9aaf0be.
That seemed like a good idea allowing us to include any runtime
generated file in archive. Unfortuantely it broke backups with files
from mounted directories.
When mounting overlay with / as lowerdir its mounts don't propagete in
the mountpoint. That resulted in empty directories:
/tmp/overlay.XXXXXX/backup/tmp/
/tmp/overlay.XXXXXX/backup/var/
/tmp/overlay.XXXXXX/backup/dev/
/tmp/overlay.XXXXXX/backup/proc/
etc.
As some platforms / users try to backup files like /var/dhcp.leases or
/boot/cmdline.txt it means we can't use that solution.

When QCA8072 is used in PSGMII mode with IPQ6018, PCS used for second
PHY port would overlap with one used by SGMII+ port. SoC has register
to select different PCS in such case.
Original code used PHY_ID for this decision, which also had other
issues, but is no longer viable since we moved to upstream QCA807x
driver.

Setting overlay while creating backup allows including extra files in
archive without actually writing them to flash. Right now this feature
is limited to /etc/backup/ directory and is used only for including
installed_packages.txt.
Extend this solution to make it more generic:
1. Always mount overlay while creating backup
2. Overlay whole / to don't limit it to /etc/backup/
This allows including any additional files in backups and adding more
sysupgrade features.

tar stderr was probably discarded only to remove this message:
tar: removing leading '/' from member names
However, together with that, any other error would also be discarded.
It is easier to fix that allowing the error message to be printed.
In sysupgrade, the backup file list only uses absolute paths. That way,
the solution is to remove the leading '/' from all files (sed) and chdir
to / (option -C /)

Hardware specification
----------------------
SoC: MediaTek MT7986A 4x A53
Flash: 128MB SPI-NAND, 8GB eMMC
RAM: 2GB DDR4
Ethernet: 2x 2.5GbE (Airoha EN8811H)
WiFi: MediaTek MT7976C 2x2 2.4G + 3x3 5G
Interfaces:
* M.2 Key-M: PCIe 2.0 x2 for NVMe SSD
* M.2 Key-B: USB 3.0 with SIM slot
* front USB 2.0 port
LED: Power, Status, WLAN2G, WLAN5G, LTE, SSD
Button: Reset, internal boot switch
Fan: PWM-controlled 5V fan
Power: 12V Type-C PD
Installation instructions for eMMC
----------------------------------
0. Set boot switch to boot from SPI-NAND (assuming stock rom or immortalwrt
running there).
1. Write GPT partition table to eMMC
Move openwrt-mediatek-filogic-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-emmc-gpt.bin to
the device /tmp using scp and write it to /dev/mmcblk0:
dd if=/tmp/openwrt-*-r3-mini-emmc-gpt.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0
2. Reboot (to reload partition table)
3. Write bootloader and OpenWrt images
Move files to the device /tmp using scp:
- openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-emmc-preloader.bin
- openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-emmc-bl31-uboot.fip
- openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-initramfs-recovery.itb
- openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-squashfs-sysupgrade.itb
Write them to the appropriate partitions:
echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0boot0/force_ro
dd if=/tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-emmc-preloader.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0boot0
dd if=/tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-emmc-bl31-uboot.fip of=/dev/mmcblk0p3
dd if=/tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-initramfs-recovery.itb of=/dev/mmcblk0p4
dd if=/tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-squashfs-sysupgrade.itb of=/dev/mmcblk0p5
sync
4. Remove the device from power, set boot switch to eMMC and boot into
OpenWrt. The device will come up with IP 192.168.1.1 and assume the
Ethernet port closer to the USB-C power connector as LAN port.
5. If you like to have Ethernet support inside U-Boot (eg. to boot via
TFTP) you also need to write the PHY firmware to /dev/mmcblk0boot1:
echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0boot1/force_ro
dd if=/lib/firmware/airoha/EthMD32.dm.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0boot1
dd if=/lib/firmware/airoha/EthMD32.DSP.bin bs=16384 seek=1 of=/dev/mmcblk0boot1
Installation instructions for NAND
----------------------------------
0. Set boot switch to boot from eMMC (assuming OpenWrt is installed there
by instructions above. Using stock rom or immortalwrt does NOT work!)
1. Write things to NAND
Move files to the device /tmp using scp:
- openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-snand-preloader.bin
- openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-snand-bl31-uboot.fip
- openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-initramfs-recovery.itb
- openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-squashfs-sysupgrade.itb
Write them to the appropriate locations:
mtd write /tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-snand-preloader.bin /dev/mtd0
ubidetach -m 1
ubiformat /dev/mtd1
ubiattach -m 1
volsize=$(wc -c < /tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-snand-bl31-uboot.fip)
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N fip -n 0 -s $volsize -t static
ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_0 /tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-snand-bl31-uboot.fip
cd /lib/firmware/airoha
cat EthMD32.dm.bin EthMD32.DSP.bin > /tmp/en8811h-fw.bin
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N en8811h-firmware -n 1 -s 147456 -t static
ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_1 /tmp/en8811h-fw.bin
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 2 -N ubootenv -s 126976
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 3 -N ubootenv2 -s 126976
volsize=$(wc -c < /tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-initramfs-recovery.itb)
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 4 -N recovery -s $volsize
ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_4 /tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-initramfs-recovery.itb
volsize=$(wc -c < /tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-squashfs-sysupgrade.itb)
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 4 -N recovery -s $volsize
ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_4 /tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-squashfs-sysupgrade.itb
3. Remove the device from power, set boot switch to NAND, power up and
boot into OpenWrt.
