apk: host: make the help available
Currently, the apk utility lacks accessible help documentation, making
it cumbersome for human users:
apk-tools 3.0.0_pre20240519, compiled for x86_64.
ERROR: This apk-tools has been built without help
This absence of help forces users to delve into the apk's build
directory to understand its functionality. To enhance usability, we will
enable the help feature for the host build. The host environment can
accommodate the 3% increase in binary size for the added convenience.
On Ubuntu 22.04, x86_64 platform, the apk size increases by 17,816 bytes
(from 594,144 to 611,960 bytes), a 2.99% increase. This is a reasonable
trade-off for improved ergonomics.
Additionally fix the Lua host build dependency as apk-tools uses during
the build Lua to convert SCDOC manpages to apk-tools help messages.
On top of the fixup to select apk-mbedtls when USE_APK is enabled from a
new config, also imply the package when enabling the config to catch
.config that are already init.
(Having both opkg and apk installed in a system is not a problem but if
USE_APK is used, APK presence in the system is mandatory)
dropbear: don't install /usr/lib/opkg/info in package install
Don't install /usr/lib/opkg/info in package install as it doesn't make

For non-overlay configuration we need checksum for config file that
weren't modified by the user. For OPKG in sysupgrade we check the status
file for the Conffiles: entry of every package. this entry contains
checksum for every static file that the package contains.
Provide the same info for APK by creating a conffiles_static file and
parse this file on sysupgrade for non-overlay configurations.
This is also used by the sysupgrade -u option to exclude non-changed
files from the final backup.
toplevel.mk: implement logic to invalidate targetinfo with some config
Implement some logic to invalidate targetinfo files in tmp with the
changing of some config.
Some config might affect DEFAULT_PACKAGES list but DEFAULT_PACKAGES is
only evaluated once. This cause the interesting scenario where someone
install feeds packages, targetinfo is evaluated in tmp and then add some
config like CONFIG_USE_APK. Using make defconfig will still select OPKG
as default package as DEFAULT_PACKAGES in targetinfo has been already
evaluated in the feeds install and is never updated.
To handle this add some logic in toplevel.mk to cache the current state
of these special config and wipe targetinfo when these change.
This cause the targetinfo to be reevaluated and handle this REALLY
corner case.
target.mk: add support to early scan of default package configuration
There is currently a problem with how some option that modify default
package configuration are parsed.
When the DEFAULT_PACKAGES list is composed, DUMP is used. Using DUMP
disable the loading of .config to remove and modification done by the
user to prevent any kind of conflict or strange thing one creating all
the info for each target. Because of this, .config is never parsed and
any check to CONFIG doesn't work (for the first creation of .config).
Later image build will check what is set in .config and the default
package list won't be parsed anymore.
This is problematic for some config that are OK to parse, for example
SELINUX or USE_APK.
To better handle them add some logic when DUMP is used to selectively
parse these option if present in a to-be-init .config so that option are
correctly parsed and DEFAULT_PACKAGES is correctly set.

ipq40xx: fix broken image generation for EX6150v2
All NETGEAR EX6150v2 validate the rootfs for which OpenWrt places a
fakeheader at the position, where the bootloader expects it.
Some EX6150v2 bootloaders do however make a broken assumption about
where the rootfs starts. This is due to them calculating the rootfs
start not based upon the kernel-length but the string-offset of the
FIT-image.
We have to be compatible with both this broken as well as the valid
calculation. So we do relocate the FDT string section to a
block-boundary and enlarge the FIT image to end at this boundary +
BLOCKSIZE / 2. This way, both the broken as well as correct calculations
do expect the rootfs-header at the same position.
It is worth noting, that this is a rare edge-case in which only happens
if the image-length as well as the start of the string-section are not
placed in the same erase-block. This is an edge-case which happens very
rarely (thus it was not spotted prior).

build: add explicit timezone in CycloneDX SBOM
The sender domain has a DMARC Reject/Quarantine policy which disallows
sending mailing list messages using the original "From" header.
To mitigate this problem, the original message has been wrapped
automatically by the mailing list software.
Per the CycloneDX 1.4 spec, the `metadata.timestamp` field contains
the date/time when the BOM was created [1].
Before the change, the value generated by the package-metadata.pl
script would look like this:
2024-06-03T15:51:10
CycloneDX 1.4 relies on the JSON Schema specification version draft-07,
which defines the `date-time` format [2] as derived from RFC 3339,
section 5.6 [3]. In this format, the `time-offset` component is required,
however in the original version of package-metadata.pl it is omitted.
This is causing problems with OWASP Dependency-Track version 4.11.0 or
newer, where it now validates submitted SBOMs against the JSON schema
by default [4]. SBOMs with incorrect timestamp values are rejected with
the following error:
{

Flash instruction using initramfs image:
1. prepare the TFTP server with the initramfs image renamed to
"linux.trx-recovery" and IP address "192.168.11.2"
2. press the "AOSS" button while powering on the WSR-2533DHPLS
3. after 10 seconds, release the "AOSS" button, WSR-2533DHPLS downloads
the initramfs image and boot with it automatically
4. on the initramfs image, download the factory-uboot.bin image to the
device and perform sysupgrade with it and "-F" option
5. wait ~120 seconds to complete flashing
Notes:
- The embedded addresses in eeprom data in Factory partition have
Buffalo's OUI, but they don't match with the actual addresses
assigned to wlan devices. So fixup addresses by the user-space
script.
- There are 2x factory*.bin images for different purposes.
- factory.bin : for flashing on OEM WebUI
- factory-uboot.bin: for flashing on OEM bootloader or initramfs image
factory-uboot.bin is useful for recoverying the device, or refreshing
when the kernel partition is expanded in the future. sysupgrade on
this device accepts factory-uboot.bin with option "-F", but on that
situation, user configurations won't be kept, so it's not for normal

tools: remove kernel2minor
Since the Yafut tool is now used for both updating the kernel on
MikroTik devices with NAND flash and preparing firmware images for
MikroTik devices with NOR flash, remove the kernel2minor utility from
the tree as it is no longer used for anything.

mikrotik: switch to Yafut for building MikroTik NOR images
The Yafut tool now has limited capabilities for working on filesystem
images stored in regular files. This enables preparing Yaffs2 images
for devices with NOR flash using upstream Yaffs2 filesystem code instead
of the custom kernel2minor tool.
Since minimizing the size of the resulting filesystem image size is
important and upstream Yaffs2 code requires two allocator reserve blocks
to be available when writing a file to the filesystem, a trick is
employed while preparing an OpenWRT image: the blank filesystem image
that Yafut operates on initially contains two extra erase blocks that
are chopped off after the kernel file is written. This is safe to do
because Yaffs2 has a true log structure and therefore only ever writes
sequentially (and the size of the kernel file is known beforehand).
While the two extra erase blocks are necessary for writes, Yaffs2 code
seems to be perfectly capable of reading back files from a "truncated"
filesystem that does not contain these extra erase blocks.
In terms of image size, this new approach is only marginally worse than
the current kernel2minor-based one: specifically, upstream Yaffs2 code
needs to write three object headers (each of which takes up an entire
data chunk) when the kernel file is written to the filesystem:
- an object header for the kernel file when it is created,
- an object header for the root directory when the kernel file is
created,
- an updated object header for the kernel file when the latter is
fully written (so that its new size can be recorded).
kernel2minor only writes two of these headers, which is the absolute
minimum required for reading the file back. This means that the
Yafut-based approach causes firmware images to be at most one erase
block (64 kB) larger than those created using kernel2minor, but only in
the very unfortunate scenario where the size of the kernel file is
really close to a multiple of the erase block size.
The rest of the calculations performed when the empty filesystem image
is first prepared stems from the Yaffs2 layout used by MikroTik NOR
devices: each 65,536-byte erase block contains 63 chunks, each of which
consists of 1024 bytes of data followed by 16-byte Yaffs tags without
ECC data; each such group of 63 chunks is then followed by 16 bytes of
padding, which translates to "-C 1040 -B 64k -E" in the Yafut
invocation. Yaffs2 checkpoints and summaries are disabled (using
Yafut's -P and -S switches, respectively) as they are merely performance
optimizations that require extra storage space. The -L and -M switches
are used to force little-endian or big-endian byte order (respectively)
in the resulting filesystem image, no matter what byte order the build
host uses. The tr invocation is used to ensure that the filesystem
image is initialized with 0xFF bytes (which are an indicator of unused
space for Yaffs2 code).

tools: add Yafut to enable creating Yaffs filesystem images
The Yafut tool has so far been used to update the kernel on devices with
NAND flash via MTD character devices. Recent upstream updates extended
the tool with limited support for working with filesystem images stored
in regular files. This enables Yafut to be used for preparing a Yaffs
filesystem image for a device with NOR flash on a build host and
subsequently flashing it to the target device without using Yafut
itself.
Add Yafut to tools/ so that it can be compiled and run on the host
building OpenWRT.
Installation:
The installation must be done via TFTP by disassembling the router.
On other occasions Cudy has distributed intermediate firmware to make
installation easier, and so I recommend checking the Wiki for this
device if there is a more convenient solution than the one below.
To install using TFTP:
1. Upgrade to a beta firmware (signed by Cudy) that can be downloaded
from the wiki. This is required in order to use an unlocked u-boot.
2. Connect to UART.
3. While the router is turning on, press 1.
4. Connect to LAN and set your IP to 192.168.1.88/24. Configure a TFTP
server and an OpenWrt initramfs-kernel.bin firmware file as recovery.bin.
5. Press Enter three times. Verify the filename.
6. If you can reach LuCI or SSH now, just use the sysupgrade image with
the 'Keep settings' option turned off.
If you don't want to use the beta firmware nor the unlocked u-boot, you
can install the firmware writing the sysupgrade image on the firmware
partition of the SPI flash.
