Commit 21f460a5db ("ath25: fix duplicate LZMA compression") changed
the way kernel images are generated, affecting initramfs images instead.
Initramfs images were previously ELF images, and by mistake this change
caused the raw kernel image to be used as a source. This caused them to
be non-loadable by bootloaders.
Restore the previous KERNEL_INITRAMFS recipe and adjust
KERNEL_INITRAMFS_NAME to point at the correct source artifact.
While at that, adjust KERNEL_INITRAMFS_SUFFIX to -kernel.elf,
so it matches the suffix of non-initramfs kernel artifact.

Commit 21f460a5db ("ath25: fix duplicate LZMA compression"), when
attempting to restore ELF artifact generation, copiedover the raw
kernel image twice. Because of that, the .elf artifact was actually a
duplicate of raw image.
Fix that by copying over .elf suffixed kernel image instead.

Add support for the TP-Link SG2008P switch. This is an RTL8380 based
switch with 802.3af one the first four ports.
Specifications:
---------------
* SoC: Realtek RTL8380M
* Flash: 32 MiB SPI flash (Vendor varies)
* RAM: 256 MiB (Vendor varies)
* Ethernet: 8x 10/100/1000 Mbps with PoE on 4 ports
* Buttons: 1x "Reset" button on front panel
* Power: 53.5V DC barrel jack
* UART: 1x serial header, unpopulated
* PoE: 1x TI TPS23861 I2C PoE controller
Works:
------
- (8) RJ-45 ethernet ports
- Switch functions
- System LED
Not yet enabled:
----------------
- Power-over-Ethernet (driver works, but doesn't enable "auto" mode)
- PoE, Link/Act, PoE max and System LEDs
Install via web interface:
-------------------------
Not supported at this time.
Install via serial console/tftp:
--------------------------------
The footprints R27 (0201) and R28 (0402) are not populated. To enable
serial console, 50 ohm resistors should be soldered -- any value from
0 ohm to 50 ohm will work. R27 can be replaced by a solder bridge.
The u-boot firmware drops to a TP-Link specific "BOOTUTIL" shell at
38400 baud. There is no known way to exit out of this shell, and no
way to do anything useful.
Ideally, one would trick the bootloader into flashing the sysupgrade
image first. However, if the image exceeds 6MiB in size, it will not
work. The sysupgrade image can also be flashed. To install OpenWRT:
Prepare a tftp server with:
1. server address: 192.168.0.146
2. the image as: "uImage.img"
Power on device, and stop boot by pressing any key.
Once the shell is active:
1. Ground out the CLK (pin 16) of the ROM (U7)
2. Select option "3. Start"
3. Bootloader notes that "The kernel has been damaged!"
4. Release CLK as sson as bootloader thinks image is corrupted.
5. Bootloader enters automatic recovery -- details printed on console
6. Watch as the bootloader flashes and boots OpenWRT.
Blind install via tftp:
-----------------------
This method works when it's not feasible to install a serial header.
Prepare a tftp server with:
1. server address: 192.168.0.146
2. the image as: "uImage.img"
3. Watch network traffic (tcpdump or wireshark works)
4. Power on the device.
5. Wait 1-2 seconds then ground out the CLK (pin 16) of the ROM (U7)
6. When 192.168.0.30 makes tftp requests, release pin 16
7. Wait 2-3 minutes for device to auto-flash and boot OpenWRT

The root overlay is mounted on the "rootfs_data" partition. This comes
at the end of the firmware image, courtesy of mtdsplit. There is very
little space left (About 1MB), which can fill up rapidly.
The "firmware" and "firmware2" partitions are part of the bootloader
dual firmware logic. They should contain independent, valid uImages.
This leaves "jffs2-cfg" (mtd3) and "jffs2-log" (mtd4) as candidates.
mtd3 is about 13.7 MB and is used by the vendor firmware to store
configuration settings. It is only erased by vendor firmware during a
factory reset. By naming this partition "rootfs_data", it becomes the
root overlay, providing significantly more room. Even with mtdsplit
wanting to create a "rootfs_data" on the firmware partition, mtd3 is
used as the overlay.
Rename "jffs2-cfg" to "rootfs_data", and profit from the extra space.

The function `ucidef_set_poe` receives a list of ports to add to the PoE array.
Since switches have many ports the varibale `lan_list` is passed instead of

This patch adds support for Netcore NW5212, provided by some carrier in
China.
Specifications:
--------------
* SoC: Mediatek MT7620A
* RAM: 128MB DDR2
* Flash: 16MB SPI NOR flash (Winbond W25Q128BV)
* WiFi 2.4GHz: builtin
* Ethernet: builtin
* LED: Power, WAN, LAN 1-4, WiFi
* Buttons: Reset (GPIO 13)
* UART: Serial console (57600 8n1)
* USB: 1 x USB2
Installation:
------------
The router comes with OpenWrt 14.07 built with MTK SDK. However, as the
modem is provided by carriers, so the web interface is highly minimized and
only contains a static page with no interaction options.
There are two possible ways to gain the access.
1) Open the shell and use a UART2USB convert to gain TTY access. Please
notice you have to remove resistance R54 at the back of the board
otherwise you won't be able to input anything.
2) Use built-in backdoor. Access http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/_/testxst to
start dropbear service at port 9122. Be warned the software is super
old and only diffie-hellman-group1-sha1, diffie-hellman-group14-sha1,
kexguess2@matt.ucc.asn.au is support, you may not be able to connect it
with an up-to-date ssh client.
After you can control the device, flash the firmware as usual. Here are
some hints for that.
Option 1 (via original firmware):
1) Setup HTTP server on your computer, for example:
python3 -m http.server
2) Connect to the route and flash:
cd /tmp
wget http://<your-computer-host>/<your-firmware-name>
mtd -r write <your-firmware-name> firmware
Option 2 (replacing u-boot via breed):
1) Download breed-mt7620-reset13.bin from https://breed.hackpascal.net/
2) Setup HTTP server on your computer, for example:
python3 -m http.server
You can skip this step if your breed is already accessible from HTTP,
since the original wget does not support HTTPS.
3) Connect to the route and flash breed:
cd /tmp
wget http://<your-computer-host>/breed-mt7620-reset13.bin
mtd write breed-mt7620-reset13.bin Bootloader
4) Reboot. Hold reset key or press any key in TTY to enter breed.
5) Access breed web interface (http://192.168.1.1/). Choose the flash
layout to be 0x50000 and flash new firmware.
MAC addresses:
-------------
There are three MACs stored in factory, as in MT7620A reference design:
source address usage
0x4 label WLAN
0x28 label MAC 1
0x2e label + 1 MAC 2
However, the OEM firmware only uses one single MAC (label) for all
interfaces, probably a misconfiguration.

This patch adds support for Netgear PR2000, sold as "Travel Router and
Range Extender".
Specifications:
--------------
* SoC: Mediatek MT7620N
* RAM: 64MB DDR2
* Flash: 16MB SPI NOR flash (Macronix MX25L12805D)
* WiFi 2.4GHz: builtin
* Ethernet: builtin
* LED: Power, Internet, WiFi, USB
* Buttons: Reset (GPIO 1/2)
* UART: Serial console (57600 8n1)
* USB: 1 x USB2
SPECIAL NOTES:
-------------
Problem: WiFi is super weak, but SSID beacons seems to be right.
Solve: Change 36h in factory partition (namely 0xf60036) to be 0x0.
Explain: Clearly Netgear have different ideas on how EEPROM is used. Bit 2
of 36h indicates the presence of External LNA for 11g (2.4 GHz) band,
which seems to be incorrectly set by Netgear (originally 0x04). Lifting it
solves the problem of weak RX signal.
Installation:
------------
There are two possible ways to install the firmware. Flashing via web
interface of original firmware is not tested due to a broken firmware.
1) Open the shell and use a UART2USB convert to gain TTY access (TP7: RXD,
TP9: TXD, TP10: GND). Please notice you have to remove resistance R54
next to TP7 otherwise you won't be able to input anything.
2) Use well-known Netgear debug switch. Access
http://192.168.168.1/setup.cgi?todo=debug to start telnet service
(username: root, password: <none>).
Please back up firmware if you want to go back to the original.
After you can control the device, flash the firmware as usual. Here are
some hints for that.
Option 1 (via nmrpflash):
1) Download nmrpflash from https://github.com/jclehner/nmrpflash
2) Use *-factory.img and flash:
nmrpflash -L
nmrpflash -i net* -f <your-firmware-name>
3) Turn off then turn on the device, wait it finishing flash.
Option 2 (replacing u-boot via breed):
1) Download breed-mt7620-reset1.bin from https://breed.hackpascal.net/
2) Setup HTTP server on your computer, for example:
python3 -m http.server
You can skip this step if your breed is already accessible from HTTP,
since the original wget does not support HTTPS.
3) Connect to the route and flash breed:
cd /tmp
wget http://<your-computer-host>/breed-mt7620-reset1.bin
dd if=breed-mt7620-reset1.bin of=/dev/mtdblock0 bs=64k
4) Reboot. Hold reset key or press any key in TTY to enter breed.
5) Access breed web interface (http://192.168.1.1/). Choose memory layout
to be 0x40000 and flash new firmware.
Remark:
------
As a "Range Extender", it has a switch to switch between Wired mode (GPIO
21 low) and Wireless mode (GPIO 20 low), which is not implemented in this
patch. However, the router will be turned off when it switches to the
middle, which makes this switch much less useful.

setenv bootcmd 'sleep 10; bootm;'
saveenv
'sleep 10;' is required as dummy to execute 'bootm' command correctly
10: Download the OpenWrt initramfs image and boot with it
tftpboot 0x81000000 0101A8C0.img
bootm
11: On the initramfs image, download the sysupgrade image and perform
sysupgrade with it
sysupgrade <imagename>
12: Wait ~ 120 seconds to complete flashing
Known Issues:
- 4x SFP ports are provided as combo ports by the RTL8218FB chip, but the
phy driver has no support for it. Currently, only TP ports work by the
RTL8218B support.
Note:
- "Switch-M48eG" is a model name, and "PN28480K" is a model number.
Switch-M48eG has an another (old) model number ("PN28480"), it's not a
Realtek based hardware.
- Switch-M48eG has a "POWER" LED (Green), but it's not connected to any
GPIO pin.
- U-Boot checks the runtime images in the flash when booting and fails
to execute "bootcmd" variable if the images are not existing.
- A filesystem is formed in the flash (0x100000-0x1DFFFFF) on the stock
firmware and it includes the stock images, configuration files and
checksum files. It's unknown format, can't be managed on the OpenWrt.
To get the enough space for OpenWrt, move the filesystem to the head
of "fs_reserved" partition by execution of "ffsfmt" and "updatert".
- A GPIO pin on PCA9539 is used for resetting external RTL8218B phys and
RTL8218FB phy.
This should be specified as "reset-gpios" property in MDIO node, but
the current configuration of RTL8218B phy in the driver seems to be
incomplete and RTL8218FB won't be configured on RTL8218D support.
So, ethernet ports on these phys will be broken after hard-resetting.
At the moment, configure this pin as gpio-hog to avoid breaking by
resetting.
- This model has 2x Microchip TCN75A thermal sensors. Linux Kernel
supports TCN75 chip on lm75 driver, but no support for TCN75'A'
variant.
At the moment, use TCN75 support for the chips instead.
Back to the stock firmware:
1. Delete "loadaddr" variable and set "bootcmd" to the original value
on U-Boot:
setenv loadaddr
setenv bootcmd 'ffsrdm c:/runtime.had 0x81000000;alphadec c:/runtime.had 0x81000240 0x80010000;'
on OpenWrt:
fw_setenv loadaddr
fw_setenv bootcmd 'ffsrdm c:/runtime.had 0x81000000;alphadec c:/runtime.had 0x81000240 0x80010000;'
2. Perform reset or reboot
on U-Boot:
reset
on OpenWrt:
reboot

The system status LED on Panasonic Switch-M48eG PN28480K is connected to
a PCA9539PW. To use the LED as a status LED of OpenWrt while booting,
enable the pca953x driver and built-in to the kernel.
Also enable CONFIG_GPIO_PCA953X_IRQ to use interrupt via RTL83xx GPIO.

Flash instruction using initramfs image:
1. Prepare the TFTP server with the IP address 192.168.1.111
2. Rename the OpenWrt initramfs image to "0101A8C0.img" and place it to
the TFTP directory
3. Download the official upgrading firmware (ex: pn28240k_v30000.rom)
and place it to the TFTP directory
4. Boot M24eG and interrupt the U-Boot with Ctrl + C keys
5. Execute the following commands and boot with the OpenWrt initramfs
image
rtk network on
tftpboot 0x81000000
bootm
6. Backup mtdblock files to the computer by scp or anything and reboot
7. Interrupt the U-Boot and execute the following commands to re-create
filesystem in the flash
ffsmount c:/
ffsfmt c:/
this step takes a long time, about ~ 4 mins
8. Execute the following commands to put the official images to the
filesystem
updatert <official image>
example:
updatert pn28240k_v30000.rom
this step takes about ~ 40 secs
