Xinfa Deng dd8a4a8c34 ath79: add support for GL.iNet GL-X1200
This patch adds supports for GL-X1200.

Specification:
	- SOC: QCA9563 (775MHz)
	- Flash: 16 MiB
	- RAM: 128 MiB DDR2
	- Ethernet: 4x 1Gbps LAN + 1x 1Gbps WAN
	- Wireless: QCA9563(2.4GHz) and QCA9886(5GHz)
	- SIM: 2x SIM card slots
	- MicroSD: 1x microSD slot
	- Antenna: 2x external 5dBi antennas
	- USB: 1x USB 2.0 port
	- Button: 1x reset button
	- LED: 16x LEDs (3x GPIO controllable)
	- UART: 1x UART on PCB (JP1: 3.3V, RX, TX, GND)
	- OEM U-Boot supplies HTTP/GUI access

Implementation Notes
====================

Both the NOR and NAND variants boot off a NOR-based kernel,
consistent with the OEM's firmware.

The mode LEDs are
    * Boot, Running   system
    * Failsafe        2G
    * Upgrade         5G

Installation
============

Using sysupgrade
----------------

sysupgrade may be used to install a NAND image on a device running
a NAND image or a NOR image on a device running a NOR image. It is
recommended to *not* preserve config when upgrading from OEM firmware
or previous versions of OpenWrt. No supported sysupgrade path should
require "force". Transitioning from NOR to NAND can be accomplished

Using U-Boot
------------

The OEM U-Boot can be put into a graphical, firmware-upload mode by
holding down the button on the side of the router while applying power
and for a bit more than five seconds following with the current OEM
U-Boot. The power LED will come on, then the 5G LED will flash five
times, about once a second.  When the 5G LED stops flashing and the
2G LED lights solid, the router's U-Boot will provide an upload page
at http://192.168.1.1/ Either a browser may be used to upload an image,
or a utility such as curl may be used:

curl -X POST -F gl_firmware=\@*-nand-squashfs-factory.img \
         http://192.168.1.1/index.html
or
    curl -X POST -F gl_firmware=\@*-nor-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin \
         http://192.168.1.1/index.html

Note that NOR vs. NAND is based on the file name extension.

OpenWrt logo

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.

Sunshine!

Download

Built firmware images are available for many architectures and come with a package selection to be used as WiFi home router. To quickly find a factory image usable to migrate from a vendor stock firmware to OpenWrt, try the Firmware Selector.

If your device is supported, please follow the Info link to see install instructions or consult the support resources listed below.

An advanced user may require additional or specific package. (Toolchain, SDK, ...) For everything else than simple firmware download, try the wiki download page:

Development

To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.

Requirements

You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.

binutils bzip2 diff find flex gawk gcc-6+ getopt grep install libc-dev libz-dev
make4.1+ perl python3.6+ rsync subversion unzip which

Quickstart

  1. Run ./scripts/feeds update -a to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default

  2. Run ./scripts/feeds install -a to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/

  3. Run make menuconfig to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages.

  4. Run make to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.

The main repository uses multiple sub-repositories to manage packages of different categories. All packages are installed via the OpenWrt package manager called opkg. If you're looking to develop the web interface or port packages to OpenWrt, please find the fitting repository below.

  • LuCI Web Interface: Modern and modular interface to control the device via a web browser.

  • OpenWrt Packages: Community repository of ported packages.

  • OpenWrt Routing: Packages specifically focused on (mesh) routing.

  • OpenWrt Video: Packages specifically focused on display servers and clients (Xorg and Wayland).
