This commit adds support for the MikroTik RouterBOARD RBM11g.
=Hardware=
The RBM11g is a mt7621 based device featuring one GbE port and one
miniPCIe slot with a sim card socket and USB 2.0.
==Switch==
The single onboard Ethernet port is connected the CPU directly.
The internal switch of the mt7621 SoC is disabled.
==Flash==
The device has one spi nor flash chip. It is a 128 Mbit winbond 25Q128FVS
connected to CS0.
==PCIe==
The board features a single miniPCIe slot. It has a dedicated mini SIM
socket and a USB 2.0 port. Power to the miniPCIe slot is controlled via
GPIO9.
==USB==
There are no external USB ports.
==Power==
The board can accept both, passive PoE and external power via a 2.1 mm
barrel jack (center-positive). The input voltage range is 11-32 V.
==Serial port==
The device does have an onboard UART on an unpopulated header next to the
flash chip:
GND: pin 2
TX: pin 7
RX: pin 6
Settings: 115200, 8N1
See below illustration for positioning of the header.
0 = screw hole
* = some pin
T = TX pin
R = RX pin
G = GND pin

=Installation=
To install an OpenWRT image to the device two components must be built:
1. A openwrt initramfs image
2. A openwrt sysupgrade image
===initramfs & sysupgrade image===
Select target devices "Mikrotik RBM11G" in
openwrt menuconfig and build the images. This will create the images
"openwrt-ramips-mt7621-mikrotik_rbm11g-initramfs-kernel.bin" and
"openwrt-ramips-mt7621-mikrotik_rbm11g-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin" in the
output directory.
==Installing==
**Make sure to back up your RouterOS license in case you do ever want to
go back to RouterOS using "/system license output" and back up the
created license file.**
When rebooted the board will try booting via ethernet first. If your
board does not boot via ethernet automatically you will have to attach
to the serial port and set ethernet as boot device within RouterBOOT.
1. Set up a dhcp server that points the bootfile to tftp server serving
the "openwrt-ramips-mt7621-mikrotik_rbm11g-initramfs-kernel.bin"
initramfs image
2. Connect to ethernet port on board
3. Power on the board
4. Wait for OpenWrt to boot
Right now OpenWrt will be running with a SSH server listening. Now
OpenWrt must be flashed to the devices flash:
1. Copy "openwrt-ramips-mt7621-mikrotik_rbm11g-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin"
to the device using scp.
2. Write openwrt to flash using "sysupgrade
openwrt-ramips-mt7621-mikrotik_rbm11g-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin"
Once the flashing completes the board will reboot. Disconnect from the
devices ethernet port or stop the DHCP/TFTP server to prevent the device
from booting via ethernet again.
The device should now boot straight to OpenWrt.

- System-On-Chip: MT7620A
- CPU/Speed: 580 MHz
- Flash-Chip: Winbond 25Q64BVSIG
- Flash size: 8192 KiB
- RAM: 64 MiB
- Wireless No1: SoC-integrated: MT7620A 2.4GHz 802.11bgn

Preparing a TFTP recovery image for initial flashing:
Currently the only method to install openwrt for the first time is via
TFTP download in u-boot. After first install you can use regular updates.
WARNING: This method also overwrites the bootloader partition!
Create a TFTP recovery image:
1) Download a stock TP-Link Firmware file here:
https://www.tp-link.com/en/download/Archer-C2_V1.html#Firmware
2) Extract u-boot from the binary file:
#> dd if=c2v1_stock_firmware.bin of=c2v1_uboot.bin bs=1 skip=512 count=131072
3) Now merge the sysupgrade image and the u-boot into one binary:
#> cat c2v1_uboot.bin openwrt-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin > ArcherC2V1_tp_recovery.bin
The resulting image can be flashed via TFTP recovery mode.
Flash instructions:
1) To flash the recovery image, start a TFTP server from IP address
192.168.0.66 and serve the recovery image named
ArcherC2V1_tp_recovery.bin.
2) Connect your device to the LAN port, then press the WPS/Reset button
and power it up. Keep pressing the WPS/Reset button for 10 seconds.
It will try to download the recovery image and flash it.
It can take up to 20-25 minutes to finish. When it reaches 100%, the
router will reboot itself.

With this change, the LED trigger is independent from the (wireless)
netdev name. The (wireless) netdev name can be easiliy changed in
OpenWrt and would require an update of the netdev trigger settings each
time it is done.
This change is (for now) applied only to MT7628 devices from TP-Link, as
we only had the possibility to test this change against two of those
devices, namely a TL-WR841 v13 and a Archer C50 v3.

The ramdisk image (not the squashfs sysupgrade image) can be flashed
through the web interface (named "GoAhead") of the factory firmware.
However, as the factory firmware does not cleanly unmount the rootfs
before flashing, the device may hang instead of rebooting after
successful write. Power cycling the device gets you in OpenWrt where
the squashfs image may be flashed through normal sysupgrade procedure.

Errata:
- While there are three ethernet ports, the third requires support for
the second GMAC. This will come in kernel 4.14.
- The first hard drive slot has a clearance issue with the two fan
headers. Workaround is to pull the headers out and connect the pins to
jumper wires.
- Using this device as a NAS is problematic with the 4.9 kernel as many
/dev/sdX reads throw silent errors. The current theory behind this is
some kind of unhandled DMA mapping error in the kernel. This is not an

Previously Newifi D2 could only use PandoraBox M1's firmware.
It works fine, but LED GPIO is different.
As a result, a separated DTS file for this device should be implemented.
Hardware spec:
* CPU: MTK MT7621A
* RAM: 512MB
* ROM: 32MB SPI Flash
* WiFi: MTK MT7603+MT7612
* Button: 2 buttons (reset, wps)
* LED: 3 single-color LEDs (USB, WiFi 2.4GHz, WiFi 5GHz) &
2 dual-color LEDs (Power, Internet)
* Ethernet: 5 ports, 4 LAN + 1 WAN
Installation method:
Same as Newifi D1, users may need to request unlock code from the device
manufacturer. Otherwise, a SPI flash programmer may be necessary to get
the firmware flashed. After the device is unlocked, press and hold reset
button before power cable plugs in. Then go to http://192.168.1.1 to
upload and flash the firmware package.

Add a helper variable which contains the boardname separated from the
vendor name. It allows to switch to a device tree compatible string
based boardname, by keeping the $board:colour:function syntax in
scripts handling/adding config for LEDs.
Boards not using the device tree compatible string as based boardname
are unaffected by the change, since none of them uses a comma in the
boardname.

UniElec U7628-01 is a router platform board based on MediaTek MT7628AN.
The device has the following specifications:
- MT7628AN (580MHz)
- 64/128/256 MB of RAM (DDR2)
- 8/16 MB of flash (SPI NOR)
- 5x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet (MT7628 built-in switch)
- 1x 2T2R 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi (MT7628)
- 1x miniPCIe slot (with PCIe and USB 2.0 buses)
- 1x miniSIM slot
- 1x microSD slot
- 1x USB 2.0 port
- 7x single-color LEDs (GPIO-controlled)
- 1x bi-color LED (green GPIO-controlled, red -> LED_WLAN# in miniPCIe)
- 1x reset button
- 1x UART header (4-pins)
- 1x SDXC/GPIO header (10-pins, connected with microSD slot)
- 1x DC jack for main power (12 V)
The following has been tested and is working:
- Ethernet switch
- miniPCIe slot (tested with modem and Wi-Fi card)
- miniSIM slot
- sysupgrade
- reset button
- USB 2.0 port*
Due to a missing driver (MMC over GPIO) this is not supported:
- microSD card reader
* Warning:
USB buses in miniPCIe and regular A-type socket are connected together,
without any proper analog switch or USB HUB.
Installation:
This board might come with a different firmware versions (MediaTek SDK,
PandoraBox, Padavan, etc.). If your board comes with PandoraBox, you can
install LEDE using sysupgrade. Just SSH to the router and perform forced
sysupgrade (due to a board name mismatch). The default IP of this board
should be: 192.168.1.1 and username/password: root/admin. In case of a
different firmware, you can use web based recovery described below.
Use the following command to perform the sysupgrade (for the 128MB
RAM/16MB flash version):
sysupgrade -n -F lede-ramips-mt76x8-u7628-01-128M-16M-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
Recovery:
This board contains a Chinese, closed-source bootloader called Breed
(Boot and Recovery Environment for Embedded Devices). Breed supports web
recovery and to enter it, you keep the reset button pressed for around
5 seconds during boot. Your machine will be assigned an IP through DHCP
and the router will use IP address 192.168.1.1. The recovery website is
in Chinese, but is easy to use. Click on the second item in the list to
access the recovery page, then the second item on the next page is where
you select the firmware. In order to start the recovery, you click the
button at the bottom.
SDXC/GPIO header (J3):
1. SDXC_D3 / I2C_SCLK
2. SDXC_D2 / I2C_SD
3. SDXC_D1 / I2S_DI
4. SDXC_D0 / I2S_WS
5. SDXC_CMD / I2S_CLK
6. SDXC_CLK / GPIO0
7. SDXC_CD / UART_RXD1
8. UART_TXD1
9. 3V3
10. GND
Other notes:
1. The board is available with different amounts of RAM and flash. We
have only added support for the 128/16 MB configuration, as that seems
to be the default. However, all the required infrastructure is in place
for making support for the other configurations easy.

Remove the ephy-pins from the ethernet device tree node. The ephy-pins
are useed to controll the ePHY LEDs and this board doesn't have these.
Instead one of the ePHY pins is used in GPIO mode to control the WAN
LED.
Use the switch LED trigger to control the WAN LED. Move the power LED
handling to diag.sh to show the boot status via this LED.
Add the missing kernel packages for USB and microSD card reader to the
default package selection.
Fix the maximum image size value. The board has a 32MByte flash chip.

This commit improves support for the Xiaomi Mi Router 3G originally
added in commit 6e283cdc0d
Improvements:
- Remove software watchdog as hardware watchdog now working as per
commit 3fbf3ab44f for all mt7621
devices.
- Reset button polarity corrected - length of press determines reboot
(short press) vs. reset to defaults (long press) behaviour.
- Enable GPIO amber switch port LEDs on board rear - lit indicates 1Gbit
link and blink on activity. Green LEDs driven directly by switch
indicating any link speed and tx activity.
- USB port power on/off GPIO exposed as 'usbpower'
- Add access to uboot environment settings for checking/setting uboot
boot order preference from user space.
Changes:
- Front LED indicator is physically made of independent Yellow/Amber,
Red & Blue LEDs combined via a plastic 'lightpipe' to a front panel
indicator, hence the colour behaviour is similar to an RGB LED. RGB
LEDs are not supported at this time because they produce colour results
that do not then match colour labels, e.g. enabling 'mir3g:red' and
'mir3g:blue' would result in a purple indicator and we have no such
label for purple.
The yellow, red & blue LEDs have been split out as individual yellow,
red & blue status LEDs, with yellow being the default status LED as
before and with red's WAN and blue's USB default associations removed.
- Swapped order of vlan interfaces (eth0.1 & eth0.2) to match stock vlan
layout. eth0.1 is LAN, eth0.2 is WAN
- Add 'lwlll' vlan layout to mt7530 switch driver to prevent packet
leakage between kernel switch init and uci swconfig
uboot behaviour & system 'recovery'
uboot expects to find bootable kernels at nand addresses 0x200000 &
0x600000 known by uboot as "system 1" and "system 2" respectively.
uboot chooses which system to hand control to based on 3 environment
variables: flag_last_success, flag_try_sys1_failed & flag_try_sys2_failed
last_success represents a preference for a particular system and is set
to 0 for system 1, set to 1 for system 2. last_success is considered *if*
and only if both try_sys'n'_failed flags are 0 (ie. unset) If *either*
failed flags are set then uboot will attempt to hand control to the
non failed system. If both failed flags are set then uboot will check
the uImage CRC of system 1 and hand control to it if ok. If the uImage
CRC of system is not ok, uboot will hand control to system 2
irrespective of system 2's uImage CRC.
NOTE: uboot only ever sets failed flags, it *never* clears them. uboot
sets a system's failed flag if that system's was selected for boot but
the uImage CRC is incorrect.
Fortunately with serial console access, uboot provides the ability to
boot an initramfs image transferred via tftp, similarly an image may
be flashed to nand however it will flash to *both* kernels so a backup
of stock kernel image is suggested. Note that the suggested install
procedure below set's system 1's failed flag (stock) thus uboot ignores
the last_success preference and boots LEDE located in system 2.
Considerable thought has gone into whether LEDE should replace both
kernels, only one (and which one) etc. LEDE kernels do not include a
minimal rootfs and thus unlike the stock kernel cannot include a
method of controlling uboot environment variables in the event of
rootfs mount failure. Similarly uboot fails to provide an external
mechanism for indicating boot system failure.
Installation - from stock.
Installation through telnet/ssh:
- copy lede-ramips-mt7621-mir3g-squashfs-kernel1.bin and
lede-ramips-mt7621-mir3g-squashfs-rootfs0.bin to usb disk or wget it
from LEDE download site to /tmp
- switch to /extdisks/sda1/ (if copied to USB drive) or to /tmp if
wgetted from LEDE download site
- run: mtd write lede-ramips-mt7621-mir3g-squashfs-kernel1.bin kernel1
- run: mtd write lede-ramips-mt7621-mir3g-squashfs-rootfs0.bin rootfs0
- run: nvram set flag_try_sys1_failed=1
- run: nvram commit
- run: reboot
Recovery - to stock.
Assuming you used the above installation instructions you will have a
stock kernel image in system 1. If it can be booted then it may be used
to perform a stock firmware recovery, thus erasing LEDE completely. From
a 'working' LEDE state (even failsafe)
Failsafe only:
- run: mount_root
- run: sh /etc/uci-defaults/30_uboot-envtools
Then do the steps for 'All'
All:
- run: fw_setenv flag_try_sys2_failed 1
- run: reboot
The board will reboot into system 1 (stock basic kernel) and wait with
system red light slowly blinking for a FAT formatted usb stick with a
recovery image to be inserted. Press and hold the reset button for
around 1 second. Status LED will turn yellow during recovery and blue
when recovery complete.

TP-Link Archer C20 v1 is a router with 5-port FE switch and
non-detachable antennas. It's very similiar to TP-Link Archer C50.
Also it's based on MediaTek MT7620A+MT7610EN.
Specification:
- MediaTek MT7620A (580 Mhz)
- 64 MB of RAM
- 8 MB of FLASH
- 2T2R 2.4 GHz and 1T1R 5 GHz
- 5x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
- 2x external, non-detachable antennas
- UART (J1) header on PCB (115200 8n1)
- 8x LED (GPIO-controlled*), 2x button, power input switch
- 1 x USB 2.0 port
* WAN LED in this devices 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 blue part of the LED.
* MT7610EN ac chip isn't not supported by LEDE. Therefore 5Ghz won't
work.
Factory image notes:
These devices use version 3 of TP-Link header, fortunately without RSA
signature (at least in case of devices sold in Europe). The difference
lays in the requirement for a non-zero value in "Additional Hardware
Version" field. Ideally, it should match the value stored in vendor
firmware header on device.
We are able to prepare factory firwmare file which is accepted and
(almost) correctly flashed from the vendor GUI. As it turned out, it
accepts files without U-Boot image with second header at the beginning
but due to some kind of bug in upgrade routine, flashed image gets
corrupted before it's written to flash. So, to flash this device we must
to prepare image using original firmware from tp-link site with uboot.
Flash instruction:
Until (if at all) TP-Link fixes described problem, the only way to flash
LEDE image in these devices is to use tftp recovery mode in U-Boot.
There are two ways to flash the device to LEDE:
1) Using tftp mode with UART connection and original LEDE image
- Place lede-ramips-mt7620-ArcherC20-squashfs-factory.bin in tftp
server directory
- Configure PC with static IP 192.168.0.66/24 and tftp server.
- Connect PC with one of LAN ports, power up the router and press
key "4" to access U-Boot CLI.
- Use the following commands to update the device to LEDE:
setenv serverip 192.168.0.66
tftp 0x80060000 lede-ramips-mt7620-ArcherC20-squashfs-factory.bin
erase tplink 0x20000 0x7a0000
cp.b 0x80060000 0x20000 0x7a0000
reset
- After that the device will reboot and boot to LEDE
2) Using tftp mode without UART connection but require some
manipulations with target image
- Download and unpack TP-Link Archer C20 v1 firmware from original web
site
- Split uboot.bin from original firmware by this command (example):
dd if=Archer_C20v1_0.9.1_4.0_up_boot(160427)_2016-04-27_13.53.59.bin of=uboot.bin bs=512 count=256 skip=1
- Create ArcherC20V1_tp_recovery.bin using this command:
cat uboot.bin lede-ramips-mt7620-ArcherC20-squashfs-factory.bin > ArcherC20V1_tp_recovery.bin
- Place ArcherC20V1_tp_recovery.bin in tftp server directory.
- Configure PC with static IP 192.168.0.66/24 and tftp server.
- Connect PC with one of LAN ports, press the reset button, power up
the router and keep button pressed for around 6-7 seconds, until
device starts downloading the file.
- Router will download file from server, write it to flash and reboot.

The ZBT WE1026-5G
(http://www.zbtlink.com/products/router/WE1026-5G.html) is the follow-up
to the ZBT WE1026 and is based on MT7620. For the previous WE1026, the
ZBT WE826 image could be used. However, as the name implies, the -5G
comes equipped with a 5GHz wifi radio. As the WE826 only has a 2.4GHz
radio, the addition of 5GHz means that a separate image is needed for
the WE1026-5G. I suspect that this image will also work on the previous
WE1026, but I don't have a device to test with.
The WE1026-5G has following specifications:
* CPU: MT7620A
* 1x 10/100Mbps Ethernet.
* 16 MB Flash.
* 64 MB RAM.
* 1x USB 2.0 port.
* 1x mini-PCIe slots.
* 1x SIM slots.
* 1x 2.4Ghz WIFI.
* 1x 5GHz wifi (MT7612)
* 1x button.
* 3x controllable LEDs.
Works:
* Wifi.
* Switch.
* mini-PCIe slot. Only tested with a USB device (a modem).
* SIM slot.
* Sysupgrade.
* Button (reset).
Not working:
* The 5GHz WIFI LED is completely dead. I suspect the issue is the same
as on other devices with Mediatek 5Ghz wifi-cards/chips. The LED is
controlled by the driver, and mt76 (currently) does not support this.
Not tested:
* SD card reader.
Notes:
* The modem (labeled 3G/4G) and power LEDs are controlled by the
hardware.
* There is a 32MB version of this device available, but I do not have
access to it. I have therefor only added support for the 16MB version,
but added all the required infrastructure to make adding support for the
32MB version easy.
Installation:
The router comes pre-installed with OpenWRT, including a variant of
Luci. The initial firmware install can be done through this UI,
following normal procedure. I.e., access the UI and update the firmware
using the sysupgrade-image. Remember to select that you do not want to
keep existing settings.
Recovery:
If you brick the device, the WE1026-5G supports recovery using HTTP. Keep the
reset button pressed for ~5sec when booting to start the web server. Set the
address of the network interface on your machine to 192.168.1.2/24, and
point your browser to 192.168.1.1 to access the recovery UI. From the
recovery UI you can upload a firmware image.

- run: mtd write lede-ramips-mt7621-mir3g-squashfs-rootfs0.bin rootfs0
- run: mtd erase kernel0
- run: reboot
Originally stock firmware has following partitions:
- ...
- kernel0 (primary kernel image)
- kernel1 (secondary kernel image, used by u-boot in failsafe routine)
- rootfs0 (primary rootfs)
- rootfs1 (secondary rootfs in case primary fails)
- overlay (used as ubi overlay)
This commit squashes rootfs0, rootfs1 and overlay partitions into 1, so
it can be used by LEDE fully for package installation, resulting in 117,5MiB.
This device lacks hw watchdog, so adding softdog instead (stock does the same).

This patch cleans up the WN3000RPv3 and EX2700 setup, bringing it in line
with other similar devices:
The power led is a bicolor one. The bootloader brings the red side on at
powerup.
Instead of blinking the red side in diag.sh and need to forcefully turn it off
in 01_leds, this patch simplifies the setup by relying on the default off state
of the gpio-led driver for the red side and blinking the green side as with

Specification:
- MT7628N/N (580 MHz)
- 64 MB of RAM (DDR2)
- 8 MB of FLASH
- 2T2R 2.4 GHz
- 5x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
- 2x external, non-detachable antennas
- UART (J1) header on PCB (115200 8n1)
- TL-WR840N v4: 5x LED (GPIO-controlled), 1x button
- TL-WR841N v13: 8x LED (GPIO-controlled*), 2x button, power input
switch
* WAN LED in TL-WR841N v13 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.
Factory image notes:
These devices use version 3 of TP-Link header, fortunately without RSA
signature (at least in case of devices sold in Europe). The difference
lays in the requirement for a non-zero value in "Additional Hardware
Version" field. Ideally, it should match the value stored in vendor
firmware header on device ("0x4"/"0x13" for these devices) but it seems
that anything other than "0" is correct.
We are able to prepare factory firwmare file which is accepted and
(almost) correctly flashed from the vendor GUI. As it turned out, it
accepts files without U-Boot image with second header at the beginning
but due to some kind of bug in upgrade routine, flashed image gets
corrupted before it's written to flash.
Tests showed that the GUI upgrade routine copies value of "Additional
Hardware Version" from existing firmware into offset "0x2023c" in
provided file, _before_ storing it in flash. In case of vendor firmware
upgrade files (which all include U-Boot image and two headers), this
offset points to the matching field in kernel+rootfs firmware part
header. Unfortunately, in case of LEDE factory image file which contains
only one header, it points to the offset "0x2023c" in kernel image. This
leads to a corrupted kernel and ends up with a "soft-bricked" device.
The good news is that U-Boot in these devices contains well known tftp
recovery mode, which can be triggered with "reset" button. What's more,
in comparison to some of older MediaTek based TP-Link devices, this
recovery mode doesn't write whole file at offset "0x0" in flash, without
verifying provided file in advance. In case of recovery mode in these
devices, first "0x20000" bytes are always skipped and "0x7a0000" bytes
from rest of the file are stored in flash at offset "0x20000".
Flash instruction:
Until (if at all) TP-Link fixes described problem, the only way to flash
LEDE image in these devices is to use tftp recovery mode in U-Boot:
1. Configure PC with static IP 192.168.0.66/24 and tftp server.
2. Rename "lede-ramips-mt7628-tl-wr84...-squashfs-tftp-recovery.bin"
to "tp_recovery.bin" and place it in tftp server directory.
3. Connect PC with one of LAN ports, press the reset button, power up
the router and keep button pressed for around 6-7 seconds, until
device starts downloading the file.
4. Router will download file from server, write it to flash and reboot.
To access U-Boot CLI, keep pressed "4" key during boot.
