The fan/thermal control is still somewhat unknown at this stage, but the

Rather than having this expose the LED functionality / thermal control

missing this reference (which fails build to prompt for N/y/m).
Make use of the new fast_age() helpers for the RTL83xx targets.

- split the existing rtldsa_83xx_fast_age() into two device
specific functions. This removes a family_id check.
- change the callbacks in the config structures
realtek: dsa: provide generic fast_age for RTL93xx
Fast ageing of L2 entries is supported by DSA with two callbacks.
- port_fast_age(): age out for one port
- port_vlan_fast_age(): age out for one vlan on one port
Independent from the SoC it always boils down to issue a command
to the L2_TBL_FLUSH_CTRL register. Nevertheless the current
implemententation is repeated multiple times and makes use of
the family_id.
As a first refactoring step provide generic fast_age() functions
for RTL930x and RTL931x by rearranging the existing definitions
of vlan_port_fast_age().
The logic is as follows:
- provide a SoC dependent function that works with or without VLAN.
When VLAN/VID = -1 only flush the specific port otherwise only
flush given VLAN on port.
- provide a port_fast_age() helper that calls the SoC specific
functions with VLAN = -1.
- provide a port_vlan_fast_age() helper that calls the SOC specific
functions and handing over the given VLAN.
rteth_hw_receive() already has a loop that checks how much work
may be done. No need to repeat that in the caller too. While we
are here adapt the function prefix.
realtek: eth: be defensive in rteth_confirm_and_disable_irqs()
With latest refactoring irq activation and deactivation is side-by-side
in the code. This makes it easier to align these functions. Current
assumption is, that the ethernet irq is only called on one cpu and
napi handling does not interfere. So it should be totally fine to
run irq disabling (called from interrupt handler) without locks.
Nevertheless be defensive and add a lock(). So in the case the ethernet
irq is fired twice on two cpus (e.g. RTL931x) the code is on the
safe side.
Once again there is a family_id check. This time around the irq
reactivation in the receive path. For cleanup and better readability
add a helper directly besides its already existing counterpart
rteth_confirm_and_disable_irqs(). With that drop unneeded defines.

mt7620: workaround jal imm26 and redundant PAGE_ALIGN
On MT7620-class platforms (CONFIG_NET_RALINK_MT7620) we observe sporadic
wrong-jump-targets, kernel oopses, hanging, corrupted backtraces or even
"half-written" instructions when the compiler emits a direct 'jal imm26'
call.
This is triggered in:
- the small random helpers inside get_random_u32_below(), and
- the blkcg_maybe_throttle_current() call in resume_user_mode_work().
This patch forces those two call sites to use an indirect call via
a volatile function pointer (load into register + jalr) when building
for MT7620, avoiding embedding a 26-bit immediate jump target.
Additionally, on MT7620 builds the exec path in fs/exec.c is modified:
- skip arch_align_stack() + PAGE_ALIGN() in setup_arg_pages()
because the micro-randomization (< PAGE_SIZE) implemented by many
ports (including MT7620) is negated immediately by PAGE_ALIGN().
Skipping the redundant PAGE_ALIGN() reduces exposure to the
problematic code pattern.
These changes are targeted workarounds for MT7620; behavioral logic is unchanged.

ath79: remove kmod-ath9k and wpad from Mikrotik RB750r2
The RB750r2 (HEXLite) does not have wifi and those packages bloat the image
by a significant amount. When building a custom image with WireGuard and
booting that from initramfs, there wasn't enough space left in tmpfs to
upload and flash the squashfs image. Investigating what packages I could
remove, I discovered these unneeded ones.

kernel: net: fix deadlock caused by phy led trigger

Two different irq handlers exist for RTL83xx and RTL93xx. Basically
they do always the same.
- Check transmit interrupts (not needed anymore)
- Check rx overflow interrupts (not needed anymore)
- Determine rx interrupts and queues that must be processed.
- In case of RTL839x check for L2 interrupts
With all the recent refactoring their logic is more or less the
same. Merge them into one handler. For better readability add a
helper that determines the work (aka rings) that needs to be
processed.
There is a wrong port assignment for the 4 SFP+ ports
on that device. Additionally the transmit polarity
change option was missed. Fix that.

realtek: pcs: rtl931x: configure SerDes-backing MAC groups
RTL931x organizes MACs into 12 groups (one per SerDes) that must be
explicitly enabled before link establishment. Without initialization,
link may fail or packets may be corrupted, especially in USXGMII/XSGMII
modes. This is the case for devices which lack initialization by the
bootloader.
Simply enable all MACs in all groups by writing 0xffffffff to the
registers. Unused MACs and reserved bits are harmless, avoiding complex
logic to always set only needed MACs.
This is placed in the PCS driver since the MAC groups are assigned per
SerDes and the DSA driver lacks SerDes awareness (on purpose)
* the device uses 9600 Baud by default but this extremely slows down the
device when using the serial console. OpenWrt is configured to use
115200 Baud. If you need to enter the bootloader, you need to use 9600
Baud.
* PT7A7514WE watchdog is fed through hardware-assisted SYS_LED. However,
the bootloader seems to deactivate that again during autoboot. There's
a quirk in early arch setup for this.
* a kernel binary "nos.img" needs to be stored into JFFS2 filesystem
using 4KiB erase block instead of 64KiB.
* V1 is the version with the 19"-sized case. As of 2026, there's a newer
version with a narrow case.
Flash instructions using initramfs image:
-----------------------------------------
1. Prepare TFTP server with an IP address in 192.168.2.0/24.
2. Connect your PC to Port 1 on SKS8300-12X.
3. Power on SKS8300-12X and interrupt autoboot by Ctrl + B.
4. Login to the vendor CLI by Ctrl + F and "diagshell_unipoe_env" as password.
5. Switch baudrate to 115200 by running a command and then reconnect
with different settings:
baudrate 115200
6. Switch to U-Boot CLI by "debug_unish_env".
7. Enable Port 1 with the following commands:
rtk 10g 0 fiber1g # (or fiber10g if 10GBase-*R)
rtk ext-devInit 0 # init RTL8231 that holds SFP GPIOs
rtk ext-pinSet 2 0 # set tx-disable of port 1 to LOW
9. On the initramfs image, backup the stock firmware if needed.
10. Upload (or download) sysupgrade image to the device.
11. Erase "firmware" partition to cleanup JFFS2 of stock FW:
mtd erase firmware
12. Perform sysupgrade with the sysupgrade image.
13. Wait until the flash completes and the system reboots into OpenWrt.
Reverting to stock firmware:
----------------------------
1. Prepare OpenWrt SDK to use the mkfs.jffs2 tool contained in it
Note: the official mkfs.jffs2 tool in mtd-utils doesn't support 4KiB
erase size and not usable for SKS8300-8X
2. Create a directory for working
3. Download official firmware for SKS8300-8X from XikeStor's official
website
4. Rename the downloaded firmware to "nos.img" and place it to the
working directory
5. Create a JFFS2 filesystem binary with the working directory
