Those converted factory images can be used to regain the original
tp-link firmware.
Be aware of firmware upgrade which additional require changes of
other partition than os-image (kernel) & file-system (rootfs).
OEM factory images from tplink can change nearly all partitions.
However using those images, OpenWrt's sysupgrade will only
modify the partitions os-image and file-system.

For some boards u-boot binary environment file is required,
which is generated by mkenvimage utility. But in OpenWrt there
is no separate support for mkenvimage, which is a part of u-boot tools.
mkenvimage gets built in u-boot/tools as well as mkimage anyways.
So lets just copy mkenvimage to the $(STAGING_DIR_HOST)/bin/ directory.

According to console log during TP-Link TL-WR840N v5 OEM firmware update
procedure 0x3e0000-0x3f0000 64kB "config" partition, which is used to store
router's configuration settings, is erased and recreated again during every
OEM firmware update procedure, thus does not contain any valuable factory data.
So it is conviniant to use this extra 64kB erase block for jffs overlay due
limited flash size on this device like it used on TP-Link's ar71xx boards.

mktplinkfw/mktplinkfw2 utilities put JFFS2 EOF market only at 64KB
boundary, this could lead to current device configuration lost during
the sysupgrade on a device, which is equpped with flash with the 4KB
erase block size (e.g. TP-Link Archer C20).
This happens when 64KB and 4KB alignments do not match, so the JFFS2
data is written not exactly at the partition beginnig and startup
scripts can not find the JFFS2 during the first boot just after the
sysupgrade.
Fix this by placing additional JFFS2 EOF marker at a 4KB boundary. Also
keep the marker at 64KB intact, so the utilities will produce images
suitable for devices with both 4KB and 64KB erase blocks.
Fixes: 29a2c2ea80 (add ability to put
jffs2 eof marker into the image)

TP-Link TL-WR1043N v5 appears to be identical to the TL-WR1043ND v4,
except that the USB port has been removed and there is no longer a
removable antenna option.
The software is more in line with the Archer series in that it uses a
nested bootloader scheme.
Specifications:
- QCA9563 at 775 MHz
- 64 MB RAM
- 16 MB flash
- 3 (non-detachable) Antennas / 450 Mbit
- 1x/4x WAN/LAN Gbps Ethernet (QCA8337)
- reset and Wi-Fi buttons

TP-Link TL-WR840N v5 is simple N300 router with 5-port FE switch and
non-detachable antennas, based on MediaTek MT7628NN (aka MT7628N) WiSoC.
Specification:
- MT7628N/N (580 MHz)
- 64 MB of RAM (DDR2)
- 4 MB of FLASH
- 2T2R 2.4 GHz
- 5x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
- 2x external, non-detachable antennas
- UART (J1) header on PCB (115200 8n1)
- 1x LED (GPIO-controlled), 1x button
* LED in TL-WR840N v5 is a dual-color, dual-leads type which isn't
(fully) supported by gpio-leds driver. This type of LED requires both
GPIOs state change at the same time to select color or turn it off.
For now, we support/use only the green part of the LED.
Orange LED is registered so you can later use it for your own purposes.
Flash instruction:
Unlike TL-WR840N v4 flashing through WEB UI works in v5.
1. Download lede-ramips-mt76x8-tl-wr840n-v5-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin image.
2. Go to 192.168.0.1
3. Flash the sysupgrade image through Firmware upgrade section of WEB UI.
4. Wait until green LED stops flashing and use the router.
Notes:
TFTP recovery is broken since TP-Link reused bootloader code for v4 and
that does not take into account only 4 MB of flash and bricks the device.
So do not use TFTP Recovery or you will have to rewrite SPI flash.
They fixed it in later GPL code,but it is unknown which version of
bootloader you have.
After manually compiling and flashing bootloader from GPL sources TFTP
recovery works properly.

With '-a' specified on the command line, the current code:
- computes an aligned _kernel length_ instead of an aligned _rootfs
offset_.
- does not update the rootfs offset after computing the new kernel
length, and instead retains the layout default.
When the kernel length exceeds the available space left with this
fixed offset, the resulting image header contains invalid data, with
the recorded rootfs offset overlapping the kernel area.
This patch ensures that rootfs offset is correctly computed and
reflected in the final image.
Furthermore, the build_fw() function special cases the rootfs_align
option because of the above invalid logic. This is also fixed and
the computed (or command-line provided, or layout-provided) rootfs_ofs
value is used in all cases.
There seems to be no valid reason to extend the kernel length beyond
the actual length of the kernel itself (OFW images don't do it) so this
part of the existing behavior is dropped.
Example image before the patch:
Kernel data offset : 0x00000200 / 512 bytes
Kernel data length : 0x00158438 / 1410104 bytes
Kernel load address : 0x00000080
Kernel entry point : 0x00000080
Rootfs data offset : 0x00140000 / 1310720 bytes
Rootfs data length : 0x001e4f7e / 1986430 bytes
Example image after the patch:
Kernel data offset : 0x00000200 / 512 bytes
Kernel data length : 0x001583fe / 1410046 bytes
Kernel load address : 0x00000080
Kernel entry point : 0x00000080
Rootfs data offset : 0x00158600 / 1410560 bytes
Rootfs data length : 0x001e4e22 / 1986082 bytes

This patch moves build_fw() to mktplinkfw-lib.c
The versions of mktplinkfw.c and mktplinkfw2.c had slight
differences in code flow, the version from mktplinkfw.c has been
preferred.
While it's expected that this change will not affect mktplinkfw2,
all use cases could not be tested and so this particular change
is committed separately.

This patch removes all the hardcoded board-specific values from
mktplinkfw2.c, and as well as the corresponding support code.
By design, this change also deletes all of the broken matching logic
that was embedded in mktplinkfw2 and aligns the "inspect" behavior
with that of mktplinkfw (i.e. print the parsed header content as
they are without further processing).
