mediatek: filogic: Add support for D-Link AQUILA PRO AI M60
Specification:
- MT7986 CPU using 2.4GHz and 5GHz WiFi (both AX)
- MT7531 switch
- 512MB RAM
- 128MB NAND flash (MX35LF1GE4AB-Z4I) with two UBI partitions with identical size
- 1 multi color LED (red, green, blue, white) connected via GCA230718 (Same as D-Link M30 A1)
- 3 buttons (WPS, reset, LED on/off)
- 1x 2.5 Gbit WAN port with Maxlinear GPY211C
- 4x 1 Gbit LAN ports
Disassembly:
- There are five screws at the bottom: 2 under the rubber feet, 3 under the label.
- After removing the screws, the white plastic part can be shifted out of the blue part.
- Be careful because the antennas are mounted on the side and the top of the white part.
Serial Interface
- The serial interface can be connected to the 4 pin holes next to/under the antenna cables.
- Note that there is another set of 4 pin holes on the side of the board, it's not used.
- Pins (from front to rear):
- 3.3V (do not connect)
- TX
- RX
- GND
- Settings: 115200, 8N1
MAC addresses:
- MAC address is stored in partition "Odm" at offset 0x81 (for example XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:52)
- MAC address on the device label is ODM + 1 (for example XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:53)
- WAN MAC is the one from the ODM partition (for example XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:52)
- LAN MAC is the one from the ODM partition + 1 (for example XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:53)
- WLAN MAC (2.4 GHz) is the one from the ODM partition + 2 (for example (XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:54)
- WLAN MAC (5 GHz) is the one from the ODM partition + 5 (for example (XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:57)
Flashing via OEM web interface:
- Currently not supported because image crypto is not known
Flashing via recovery web interface:
- This is only working if the first partition is active because recovery images are always flashed to the active partition and OpenWrt can only be executed from the first partition
- Use a Chromium based browser, otherwise firmware upgrade might not work
- Recovery web interface is accessible via 192.168.200.1 after keeping the reset button pressed during start of the device until the LED blinks red
- Upload the recovery image, this will take some time. LED will continue flashing red during the update process
- The after flashing, the recovery web interface redirects to http://192.168.0.1. This can be ignored. OpenWrt is accessible via 192.168.1.1 after flashing
- If the first partition isn't the active partition, OpenWrt will hang during the boot process. In this case:
- Download the recovery image from https://github.com/RolandoMagico/openwrt/releases/tag/M60-Recovery-UBI-Switch (UBI switch image)
- Enable recovery web interface again and load the UBI switch image. This image works on the second partition of the M60
- OpenWrt should boot now as expected. After booting, flash the normal OpenWrt sysupgrade image (for example in the OpenWrt web interface)
- Flashing a sysupgrade image from the UBI switch image will make the first partition the active partition and from now on, default OpenWrt images can be used
Flashing via Initramfs:
- Before switching to OpenWrt, ensure that both partitions contain OEM firmware.
- This can be achieved by re-flashing the same OEM firmware version again via the OEM web interface.
- Flashing via OEM web interface will automatically flash the currently not active partition.
- Open router, connect serial interface
- Start a TFTP server at 192.168.200.2 and provide the initramfs image there
- When starting the router, select "7. Load Image" in U-Boot
- Settings for load address, load method can be kept as they are
- Specify host and router IP address if you use different ones than the default (Router 192.168.200.1, TFTP server 192.168.200.2)
- Enter the file name of the initramfs image
- Confirm "Run loaded data now?" question after loading the image with "Y"
- OpenWrt initramfs will start now
- Before flashing OpenWrt, create a backup of the "ubi" partition. It is required when reverting back to OEM
- Flash sysupgrade image to flash, during flashing the U-Boot variable sw_tryactive will be set to 0
- During next boot, U-Boot tries to boot from the ubi partition. If it fails, it will switch to the ubi1 partition
Reverting back to OEM:
- Boot the initramfs image as described in "Flashing via Initramfs" above
- Copy the backed up ubi partition to /tmp (e.g. by using SCP)
- Write the backup to the UBI partition: mtd write /tmp/OpenWrt.mtd4.ubi.bin /dev/mtd4
- Reboot the device, OEM firmware will start now

this may already leave no space for the user overlay.

The factory image can be flashed via the same procedure as vendor images
when reverting to stock, can be installed from stock, or can be launched

This is also beneficial when intending to configure a PPSK network. It
allows to create a network where no PPSK is yet set.

the uboot environment has to be changed:

lantiq/xrx200: move 8M flash devices to a small flash subtarget
Images for xrx200 8M flash are either not building due to image
size (TD-W8970, TD-W8980) or building such that the available
free space in the overlayfs is too little to be useful.
To keep images for these devices buildable, move them into a
small flash variant of the xrx200 subtarget. As these devices
are NOR flash only, remove NAND and UBI references from the
kernel config to gain some additional image size reduction.
The apparent 8M flash devices Arcadyan VGV7510KW22-brn,
Arcadyan VGV7519-brn and Lantiq Easy80920-nor seem to exist in
order to create special "factory" installation images for these
devices (which actually have larger flash: 16MB for the
Arcardyan devices; 64MB for the Lantiq device). As a
considerable amount of surgery would appear to be required to
the uboot-lantiq package structure to separate the "factory"
from the "sysupgrade" device recipes for these devices they
remain in the xrx200 target - if factory images aren't now
created, 23.05.x factory images should suffice for initial
installation.

2. Press "reset" button and power on the router. After ~10 sec release the
button.
3. Use OpenWrt initramfs system for recovery.
BL2 and FIP recovery
--------------------
Use mtk_uartboot and UART connection if BL2 or FIP in UBI is destroyed: Link: https://github.com/981213/mtk_uartboot
Return to stock:
----------------
1. Copy partition backups (BL2.bin and FIP.bin) to the /tmp dir of the
router using scp.
The mt76x8 series SoCs use the MIPS generic systick timer. Sync the
upstream Ralink systick driver changes and disable it for mt76x8
target to reduce the kernel size.

x86: Deactivate kernel options with extra overhead
Deactivate CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACKING_USER_FORCE: Force user context
tracking: This is a testing feature which should not be activate in
production environments according to the Kconfig help. It adds an extra
overhead.
Deactivate CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_DEFAULT_ALL: Offload RCU callback
processing from all CPUs by default: This option should only be used in
aggressive HPC or real-time workloads which we do not have in OpenWrt.
For normal workloads it increases the number of context switches.
In the default Arch Linux kernel both options are not activated.

------------
1. Connect to the serial port as described in the "Hardware" section.
2. Power on the device + press reset pin. Keep pressing reset pin to enter the U-Boot shell.
3. Download the OpenWrt initramfs image. Place it on an TFTP server
connected to the Cudy LAN ports. Make sure the server is reachable at
192.168.1.88. Rename the image to "cudy3000s.bin"

mediatek: add support for Acer Predator W6d and Acer Vero W6m
This commit adds support for two variants of the already supported router
Acer Predator Connect W6: The Acer Predator Connect W6d (W6 without 6 GHz
wifi) and the Acer Connect Vero W6m (W6 without 2.5G eth1 port, usb3 port,
and the 6 on-board gpio RGB LEDs, and with a KTD2026 RGB LED controller
instead of the KTD2061 LED controller of the W6/W6d).
The device tree for the W6m refers to the KTD202x driver suggested in
PR #16860.
Patching target/linux/mediatek/filogic/base-files/lib/upgrade/platform.sh

mediatek: improve device tree for Acer Predator Connect W6
In order to prepare for OpenWrt support other Acer W6 devices and to get
a step further to full hardware support for Acer Predator Connect W6, this
commit
- adjusts the product name ("Acer Predator Connect W6")
- updates gpio LED labels to function/color scheme
- show router status by using first rgb led instead of it's red color only
(blue: booting/failsafe mode; red: sysupgrade; green: running – was: red)
- changes switch/eth1 led configuration to reflect RX/TX activity and speed
(green: full 1Gbps/2.5Gbps speed; amber: lower speed; blink: RX/TX)
- shortens dummy dm-mod.create string in bootargs
- enables W6's i2c interface

mediatek: make use of Acer Predator Connect W6's u-boot environment
In order to prepare OpenWrt support for other Acer W6 devices and to adapt
the procedure to read and set mac addresses which other devices of the same
target are using (instead of needing an additional script and creating an
additional structure in the file system), this commit
- reads device mac addresses from u-boot environment
- avoids the detour via the file system to set the mac addresses
- drops redundant file /lib/preinit/05_extract_factory_data.sh

mediatek: split Acer/W6 dts into W6 common dtsi and device specific dts
In order to prepare OpenWrt support for other Acer W6 devices, this commit
moves all device tree components that are used by all Acer W6/W6e/W6d/W6m
routers from mt7986a-acer-predator-w6.dts to mt7986a-acer-w6-common.dtsi
(new file) and includes this dtsi file in mt7986a-acer-predator-w6.dts.
Minor changes had to be made to the device tree in order to improve clarity
and – notably – to reduce the number of dtc warnings:
- replace (obviously wrong) led@<N> gpio led entities by led-<N>
- remove unnecessary (default-state = "off") gpio led statements
- rename entity “memory” to “memory@0”
- add missing #address-cells and #address-size in /soc/mmc@11230000
- add missing #address-cells and #address-size in /soc/pcie@11280000
- introduce symbols “nvmem” and “swport0” in dtsi (referenced in dts)
The changes were checked with `diff -BEZbdtwy --suppress-common-lines ...`
