build: call ipkg-remove using xargs if #args>=512
The wildcard call to clean up luci package (luci*) can pick up over
2,300 files when the full tree is built. Running make package/luci/clean
or a second run of make package/luci/compile would fail with an
'Argument list too long' error.
To avoid that, a maybe_use_xargs function was created that runs the
command straight as usual if the number of arguments is < 512, or saves
the list in a temporary file and feeds it to xargs otherwise.

realtek: dsa: relax capability checks for 2.5G modes
The driver currently uses two checks to verify the capabilities. These
are ..._phylink_get_caps() and ..._pcs_validate(). For RTL930x these
must allow 2.5G modes. Enhance that as follows:
Add 2500BASEX to phylink_get_caps(). Sort the interfaces alphabetically
and rename the function to the new prefix. IMPORTANT REMARK! Until now
this function allowed the XGMII mode (10G only parallel interface) that
was somehow mixed with the Realtek proprietary mode XSGMII (10G SGMII).
Remove it to avoid further confusion.
Looking upstream pcs_validate() is used less and less. There are only
2 consumers left in 6.16 and the calling location reads:
/* Validate the link parameters with the PCS */
if (pcs->ops->pcs_validate) {
ret = pcs->ops->pcs_validate(pcs, supported, state);
if (ret < 0 || phylink_is_empty_linkmode(supported))
return -EINVAL;
/* Ensure the advertising mask is a subset of the
* supported mask.
*/
linkmode_and(state->advertising, state->advertising,
supported);
}
There is no need for this additional check. Drop the functions.

toolchain/gcc: prevent the use of LDRD/STRD on ARMv5TE
These instructions are for 64-bit load/store. On ARMv5TE, the CPU
requires addresses to be aligned to 64-bit. When misaligned, behavior is
undefined (effectively either loads the same word twice on LDRD, or
corrupts surrounding memory on STRD).
On ARMv6 and newer, unaligned access is safe.
Removing these instructions for ARMv5TE is necessary, because GCC
ignores alignment information in pointers and does unsafe optimizations
that have shown up as bugs in various places.
This patch was originally added more than 11 years ago in commit b050f87d13b5,
but got lost 6 years ago, when gcc 9.1 was added in 88c07c655262.

device couldn't boot a kernel because of an error: "lzma compressed:

I have chosen -d22 as dictionary size as suggested by @namiltd.
The usual sizes for problematic devices are -d16, -d20, -d22. I
have confirmed with my tests that this device can boot with a value
up to -d27, but there is no size benefit from values above -d21,
therefore -d22 is good enough.

This parser splits kernel+rootfs or only rootfs(or UBI) based on the
image in the firmware partition or pre-defined partitions in dts, and
"bootnum" value in the "persist" (or "working") partition.
Note: "bootnum" is used for switching active firmware partitions on the
devices manufactured by MSTC and '1' or '2' are used on most
devices. But some devices use '0' or '1'. (example: I-O DATA

Sequence:
1. obtain "bootnum" value
2. child nodes exsist (regardless of bootnum)

inactive parts: with bootnum (ex.: "kernel2", "rootfs2"))
3. current partition is active (dt bootnum == mtd bootnum)

- common
- mstc,bootnum : "bootnum" value for the mtd partition (0/1/2)
- mstc,persist : phandle of "persist" partition containing "bootnum"

Add an OpenWrt-based U-Boot build for this device, allowing for more
flexibility and customization.
Expected behaviour
------------------
When plugging the device, keeping the reset button pressed will enter
TFTP recovery mode: the board will send requests for the initramfs file
(openwrt-mediatek-filogic-glinet_gl-mt2500-initramfs-kernel.bin) from
IP 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.10 TFTP server.
The bootloader will populate the environment with the unit serial number
as reported by the "sn" value in eMMC, the "sn_bak" value, the country
code and ddns. WAN and LAN MAC addresses are reported in the environment
as well.
Limitations
-----------
No web interface is available, and only the LAN port can be used for
system recovery.
Notes
-----
This port has been tested with the Maxlinear version only, and with a
board that does not exhibit eMMC communication problems. Even though eMMC
frequency has been lowered, some testing is probably needed and always
very welcome.
A -factory image has been introduced, and is only needed when using the
"Load Firmware via TFTP then write to eMMC." boot menu function.
The device has not been converted to use uImage.FIT including the rootfs
to keep compatibility with stock bootloader and firmware.
Installation
------------
From a Linux root shell:
0. Transfer the needed files to the board, placing them in /tmp.
1. Make sure your U-Boot environment is erased: all of my units came with
unpopulated environment, but I am not sure this is always the case.
Issue the command
cat /dev/zero >/dev/mmcblk0p2
(you will get a "no space left" error, which is reasonable and expected).
2. Unlock the eMMC boot area where BL2 is located:
echo 0 >/sys/block/mmcblk0boot0/force_ro
3. Write the new BL2 code:
cat openwrt-mediatek-filogic-glinet_gl-mt2500-emmc-preloader.bin >/dev/mmcblk0boot0
4. Write new BL31+U-Boot image:
cat openwrt-mediatek-filogic-glinet_gl-mt2500-emmc-bl31-uboot.fip >/dev/mmcblk0p4
5. Reboot.
uboot-mediatek: GatoNetworks GDSP support fixes and updates
This commit updates the OpenWrt-based U-Boot for this device, allowing
to boot a FIT firmware image stored in an SD card.
The environment has been updated accordingly to allow for managing images
on the two different supported firmware boot media configurations
(NOR or SDMMC).
Erasing the U-Boot environment when upgrading is recommended, so that
the correct DTS overlay is applied.
New behaviour
-------------
The default environment "bootconf" variable is set to
config-1#mt7981b-gatonetworks-gdsp-gps
rendering the GPS module accessible.
You may set it to something like
config-1#mt7981b-gatonetworks-gdsp-sd
to be able to use the MMC controller.
To boot from a firmware image stored in an SD card, you may set the
bootmedia environment variable:
# fw_setenv bootmedia sd
and reboot.
Should the bootmedia variable be absent or it's content not recognized
as valid (e.g., does not contain "nor" or "sd"), NOR boot will be
attempted.
mediatek: filogic: add SD card support to GatoNetworks GDSP
The device is equipped with a GPS module, reporting data via /dev/ttyS1.
A TF card reader is also present. Only one of those components can be
used at once, since they share some PINs.
This commit adds two devicetree overlays to allow for the user to select
the desired configuration. Another overlay configuration to allow booting
from SD card is provided.

The .remove has been converted to .remove_new in the 6.12 kernel.
We have to change remove function return type from int to void
to match the upstream changes.
