Installation:
-------------
> When connected to CloudTrax, the local management login will be disabled to prevent settings conflicts.
Ensure the switch does not have a working internet connection or the local
web management interface is disabled.
Go to the web management page of the switch (may require factory reset).
By default the switch will use DHCP to obtain an IP address.
The default login user is `admin` with password `0p3nm3$h!`
On the left menu, click "Management" and then "Dual Image" and ensure that
"Partition 0" is selected as the active partition. If it is not, select
"Partition 0" and click "Apply" to save changes.
Click on "Upgrade" in the top right of the web interface. Select the
Active boot partition to update. Select the OpenWrt file ending
in `-initramfs-kernel.bin` as the update file to upload.
Upload the file and follow the prompts to upgrade the firmware.
Reboot the switch from the web UI after the firmware update is completed.
Wait for OpenWrt to finish booting (~2 minutes)
Use SSH or the Luci UI (if available) to perform the sysupgrade.
Copy the sysupgrade file ending in `-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin` to the switch:
```
scp -O openwrt-realtek-rtl838x-datto_l8-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/
```
SSH to the switch and run `sysupgrade`:
```
ssh root@192.168.1.1
$ sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-realtek-rtl838x-datto_l8-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
```
OpenWrt will be installed. Note that first boot after installing requires ~3
minutes for the JFFS2 overlay to be formatted. When the Power LED stops blinking
in the first boot after `sysupgrade`, JFFS2 formatting is completed.

Connect a serial console to the UART header and power on the switch.
Interrupt U-Boot by typing `pac` when you see

wireguard-tools: use kconfig dependency for ip instead of runtime
The conditional runtime dependency on the ip package was originally
intended to only pull in the ip package when busybox ip is not
configured. However, in APK-based builds the BUSYBOX_CONFIG_*
variables may not be resolvable at package metadata generation
time, causing the ip dependency to be unconditionally baked into
the .apk package. This forces users to install ip-tiny or ip-full
even though busybox already provides the ip command.
Revert to the previous +@BUSYBOX_CONFIG_IP / +@BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_IP_LINK
kconfig-level dependencies. These ensure busybox ip support is
enabled at config time without creating a runtime package dependency.
Both options default to y, and wireguard.uc only uses basic
ip link commands that busybox fully supports.

a C45 based phy. It works basically the same with two parameters

The Realtek target currently uses two phy macros to simplify the
device dts.
- EXTERNAL_PHY() to denote a phy attached to the SoC
- INTERNAL_PHY() to denote an internal PHY (inside the SoC)
There is no benefit doing this. The topology around a port/phy is
well defined by the port macros. They link port, phy, pcs and even
leds. The only consumer of the attribute "phy-is-integrated" is
inside the dsa driver and that is being refactored.
As a first step define a new more meaningful PHY_C22() macro that
describes a c22 capable phy. This does not need to care about the
external/internal relation. To make it even more useful for the
RTL93xx targets with multiple mdio busses give it two parameters
PHY_C22(port_number, bus_address) where
- port_number is the absolute overall unique phy number
- bus_address is the location of the phy on the bus
For RTL83xx these two parameters will usually be the same. Instead
of three steps (inventing the macro, converting the consumers and
removeing the old macor) do a one-step conversion for the existing
EXTERNAL_PHY() macro.
The dsa driver currently has different attributes to denote what
hardware is around a port:
- phy_is_integrated: true if phy is not driven by a serdes
- phy: the type of the attached phy (e.g. 0=NONE, 2=RTL8218B, ....)
- pcs: link to a serdes pcs instance
This is somehow redundant and especially the phy type should be only
part of the phy driver and is not needed by the dsa driver at all.
Remove the redundancy by simply keeping a boolean attribute "phy" that
flags a phy driven port and can be used similar to the pcs (pointer)
attribute. With that the driver can check phy/pcs as follows:
- if (ports[i].pcs) -> port has a dedicated serdes
- if (ports[i].phy) -> port has a dedicated phy
That implemented, the "phy-is-integrated" attribute of a phy can be
removed from the dts. This will be a separate commit. As a side effect
the following (annoying) boot message for kernel 6.18 gets fixed.

The four TGRX pages are currently mapped into the page range 4-7 for even
10G serdes. This is only partly right. TGRX0/1 better aligns with RTL93xx
pages TGX_STD_0/TGX_STD_1. Change the mapping. No code update needed as
the pages are not yet used anywhere.
The ANA_RG pages of the RTL839x SerDes are a wild mix of WDIG, ANA_MISC
and ANA_1G2 data. Its current mapping to the TGX_STD_0 register does
not match at all. From the coding it makes most sense to remap it to the
ANA_1G2/ANA_1G2_EXT range. Adapt all consumers in the pcs driver
accordingly.
With all the recent development about RTL93xx serdes it has become
clear that the RTL839x ANA_TG page mapping is not perfect. Until
know it is mapped to pages 10/11. As its naming suggests these are
serdes analogous register settings for 10G. Map it to the appropriate
ANA_10G pages to align better with RTL93xx. Adapt all consumers
in the pcs driver accordingly.
The initial page naming of the debugfs page registers in the mdio
serdes driver was a mix of RTL839x and RTL93xx. Developing the
Realtek pcs driver, it was discovered that the RTL93xx IP block
shares a lot of the registers with the RTL8295 PHY.
The RTL839x serdes development is quite okay and currently on hold.
Thus drop the RTL839x derived page names and substitute them for
their RTL93xx counterpart.
This is only a cosmetic change for better readability.
Realtek switches have a very simple network adapter for the SOC.
They can ship packets via DMA without further offloading features.
Even on the RTL931x devices they can barely reach 50MB/s. In the
dts there is a mix of 1G/10G definitions. To be consistent and
better reflect the performance set the link speed to 1000.
This is only cosmetic.

realtek: 6.18: adapt SFP SMBus patches
Adapt our downstream patches for SMBus SFP functionality to kernel 6.18.
Upstream gained support for SMBus byte access on SFP and a patch to
extend that to word and block access is pending.
These downstream patches aren't acceptable for upstream and will need to
be adapted. However, keep them for now to maintain functionality.

kernel/realtek: restore files for v6.12
This is an automatically generated commit which aids following Kernel patch
history, as git will see the move and copy as a rename thus defeating the
purpose.
