Installation (UART)
-------------------
1. Place OpenWrt initramfs image on tftp server with IP 192.168.1.2
2. Attach UART, switch on the router and interrupt the boot process by
pressing 'Ctrl-C'
3. Load and run OpenWrt initramfs image:
tftpboot initramfs-kernel.bin
bootm
4. Once inside OpenWrt, set / update env variables:
fw_setenv baudrate 115200
fw_setenv bootargs "ubi.mtd=ubi0 console=ttyS0,115200n1 loglevel=8 earlycon=uart8250,mmio32,0x11002000 init=/etc/preinit"

fw_setenv stdout serial@11002000
fw_setenv tp_boot_idx 0
5. Run 'sysupgrade -n' with the sysupgrade OpenWrt image
Installation (without UART)
---------------------------
1. Login as root via SSH (router IP, port 20001, password - your web
interface password)
2. Open for editing /etc/hotplug.d/iface/65-iptv (e.g., using WinSCP and
SSH settings from the p.1)
3. Add a newline after "#!/bin/sh":
telnetd -l /bin/login.sh
4. Save "65-iptv" file
5. Toggle "IPTV/VLAN Enable" checkbox in the router web interface and
save
6. Make sure that telnetd is running:
netstat -ltunp | grep 23
7. Login via telnet to router IP, port 23 (no username and password are
required)
8 Upload OpenWrt "initramfs-kernel.bin" to the "/tmp" folder of the
router (e.g., using WinSCP and SSH settings from the p.1)
9. Stock busybox doesn't contain ubiupdatevol command. Hence, we need to
download and upload the full version of busybox to the router. For
example, from here:
https://github.com/xerta555/Busybox-Binaries/raw/master/busybox-arm64
Upload busybox-arm64 to the /tmp dir of the router and run:
in the telnet shell:
cd /tmp
chmod a+x busybox-arm64
10. Check "initramfs-kernel.bin" size:
du -h initramfs-kernel.bin
11. Delete old and create new "kernel" volume with appropriate size
(greater than "initramfs-kernel.bin" size):
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -N kernel
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 1 -N kernel -s 9MiB
12. Write OpenWrt "initramfs-kernel.bin" to the flash:
./busybox-arm64 ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_1 /tmp/initramfs-kernel.bin
13. u-boot-env can be empty so lets create it (or overwrite it if it
already exists) with the necessary values:
fw_setenv baudrate 115200
fw_setenv bootargs "ubi.mtd=ubi0 console=ttyS0,115200n1 loglevel=8 earlycon=uart8250,mmio32,0x11002000 init=/etc/preinit"
fw_setenv fdtcontroladdr 5ffc0e70
fw_setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
fw_setenv loadaddr 0x46000000
fw_setenv mtdids "spi-nand0=spi-nand0"
fw_setenv mtdparts "spi-nand0:2M(boot),1M(u-boot-env),50M(ubi0),50M(ubi1),8M(userconfig),4M(tp_data)"
fw_setenv netmask 255.255.255.0
fw_setenv serverip 192.168.1.2
fw_setenv stderr serial@11002000
fw_setenv stdin serial@11002000
fw_setenv stdout serial@11002000
fw_setenv tp_boot_idx 0
14. Reboot to OpenWrt initramfs:
reboot
15. Login as root via SSH (IP 192.168.1.1, port 22)
16. Upload OpenWrt sysupgrade.bin image to the /tmp dir of the router
17. Run sysupgrade:
sysupgrade -n /tmp/sysupgrade.bin

ipq4019: add support for ZTE MF287+ aka DreiNeo
The ZTE MF287+ is a LTE router used (exclusively?) by the network operator
"3". The MF287 (i.e. non-plus aka 3Neo) is also supported (the only
difference is the LTE modem)
LAN: from config + 2
WiFi 1: from config
WiFi 2: from config + 1
Installation
============
Option 1 - TFTP
---------------
TFTP installation using UART is preferred. Disassemble the device and
connect serial. Put the initramfs image as openwrt.bin to your TFTP server
and configure a static IP of 192.168.1.100. Load the initramfs image by
typing:
Option 2 - From stock firmware
------------------------------
The installation from stock requires an exploit first. The exploit consists
of a backup file that forces the firmware to download telnetd via TFTP from
192.168.0.22 and run it. Once exploited, you can connect via telnet and
login as admin:admin.
The exploit will be available at the device wiki page.
Once inside the stock firmware, you can transfer the -factory.bin file to
/tmp by using "scp" from the stock frmware or "tftp".
ZTE has blocked writing to the NAND. Fortunately, it's easy to allow write
access - you need to read from one file in /proc. Once done, you need to
erase the UBI partition and flash OpenWrt. Before performing the operation,
make sure that mtd13 is the partition labelled "rootfs" by calling
"cat /proc/mtd".
Option 2 - from within OpenWrt
------------------------------
This option requires to flash an initramfs version first so that access
to the flash is possible. This can be achieved by sysupgrading to the
recovery.bin version and rebooting. Once rebooted, you are again in a
default OpenWrt installation, but no partition is mounted.
Follow the commands from Option 1 to flash back to stock.
LTE Modem
=========
The LTE modem is similar to other ZTE devices and controls some more LEDs
and battery management.
Configuring the connection using uqmi works properly, the modem
provides three serial ports and a QMI CDC ethernet interface.
1. Download the OpenWrt initramfs image. Copy the image to a TFTP server
2. Connect the TFTP server to the WAX220. Conect to the serial console,
interrupt the autoboot process by pressing '0' when prompted.
3. Download & Boot the OpenWrt initramfs image.
4. Wait for OpenWrt to boot. Transfer the sysupgrade image to the device
using scp and install using sysupgrade.

After migrating to kernel 5.15, upgrading causes the units to become
soft-bricked, hanging forever at the kernel startup.
Kernel size limitation of 4000000 bytes is suspected here, but this is
not fully confirmed.
Disable the images to protect users from inadvertent bricking of units,
because recovery of those is painful with Cisco's U-boot, until the root
cause is found and fixed.
Previously both lan1 and lan2 leds were wrongly labelled as lan2.

Installation:
* Vendor's firmware is OpenWrt (LEDE) based, so the sysupgrade image can
be directly used to install OpenWrt. Firmware must be upgraded using the
'force' and 'do not save configuration' command line options (or
correspondig web interface checkboxes) since the vendor firmware is from
the pre-DSA era.
Recovery Mode:
* Press reset button, power up the device, wait for about 10sec.
* Upload sysupgrade image through the firmware recovery mode web page at
192.168.1.1.

mac80211: always use mac80211 loss detection
ath10k does not report excessive loss in case of broken block-ack
sessions. The loss is communicated to the host-os, but ath10k does not
trigger a low-ack events by itself.
The mac80211 framework for loss detection however detects this
circumstance well in case of ath10k. So use it regardless of ath10k's
own loss detection mechanism.
2. Load the OpenWrt initramfs image on the device using TFTP.
Place the initramfs image as "ap105.bin" in the TFTP server
root directory, connect it to the AP and make the server reachable
at 192.168.1.66/24.

This patch initially introduced in 94b4da9b4aaded6ed8a5bd93bf38a7c92753fe68
breaks mvebu devices when using vlan filtering with kernel 5.15 or 6.1,
it was working ok in 5.10.
With this patch, frame that should exit untagged from the switch exit tagged.
Running 'tcpdump -Q out -evnnli eth1' (eth1 being the dsa interface)
- with the hack, frame is sent directly to the
destination port 4 with VID 2, so the switch leave the tag as instructed:
11:22:33:44:55:66 > 77:88:99:aa:bb:cc, Marvell EDSA ethertype 0xdada (Unknown), rsvd 0 0, mode From CPU, target dev 0, port 4, tagged, VID 2, FPri 0, ethertype ARP (0x0806), length 50: Ethernet (len 6), IPv4 (len 4), Request who-has 5.6.7.8 tell 1.2.3.4, length 28
- without the hack, frame is sent to the switch that
performs the forwarding decision and untagging:
11:22:33:44:55:66 > 77:88:99:aa:bb:cc, Marvell EDSA ethertype 0xdada (Unknown), rsvd 0 0, mode Forward, dev 1, port 0, tagged, VID 2, FPri 0, ethertype ARP (0x0806), length 50: Ethernet (len 6), IPv4 (len 4), Request who-has 5.6.7.8 tell 1.2.3.4, length 28
Removing this patch makes my Turris Omnia usable with vlan filtering,
ie wifi device can talk to wired device again.
Using kernel 5.15 some broadcast/multicast traffic is still leaked
(on a VLAN 2 access port I see tagged VLAN 3 frame),
using kernel 6.1 fixes that.
People needing the extra performance should try the bridger package.

sifiveu: add new target for SiFive U-based boards
RISC-V is a new CPU architecture aimed to be fully free and open. This

Supports running on:

- HiFive Unmatched - FU740, current latest generation, PCIe
SD-card images are generated, where the partitions are required to have
specific type codes. As it is commonplace nowadays, OpenSBI is used as the
first stage, with U-boot following as the proper bootloader.
Add patch until it gets accepted in firmware-utils upstream.
The SiFive RISC-V SoCs use two special partition types in the boot process.
As a first step, the ZSBL (zero-stage bootloader) in the CPU looks for a
partition with a GUID of 5B193300-FC78-40CD-8002-E86C45580B47 to load the
first-stage bootloader - which in OpenWrt's case is an SPL image. The FSBL
(SPL) then looks for a partition with a GUID of 2E54B353-1271-4842-806F-E436D6AF6985 to load the SSBL which is usually an
u-boot.
With ptgen already supporting GPT partition creation, add the required GUID
types and name them accordingly to be invoked with the '-T <GPT partition
type>' parameter.

armvirt: 64: add support for other SystemReady-compatible vendors
These changes are to support other vendors that have SystemReady/EFI
support, including:
* Marvell Armada
** (This is speculative as I don't have a machine of my own to test)
* Amazon Graviton (tested bare-metal and virtualized instances)
* VMware (Fusion for ARM Mac preview)
* NXP/Freescale (Layerscape series not already selected)
* HiSilicon
* Allwinner/sunxi
* Rockchip (untested, options taken from arm64 defconfig)
To give an idea of the hardware certified for SystemReady,
see
https://www.arm.com/architecture/system-architectures/systemready-certification-program/ir
and
https://www.arm.com/architecture/system-architectures/systemready-certification-program/es
Other vendors that _should_ work include Marvell Octeon 10
and Ampere. I understand these systems should work
"out of the box" in ACPI mode but may require other drivers
(e.g PCIe NICs and storage controllers).
This fixes an issue with NXP's DPAA2 platforms (LS1088/2088/LX2160)
* A deadlock issue when attempting to detach the SFP management from
a PHY interface (e.g when trying to reboot). These issues were fixed
in kernel 6.2[1], but it's version does not cleanly apply onto 5.15.

build: use 128MiB as the boot/kernel partition size on armvirt target
The nominal partition type for EFI boot partitions is FAT32,
which has a minimum size of 32MiB on a 512-byte-sector block device.
To ensure that the boot partition is created as FAT32 set a size
well above this minimum.
A useful discussion about EFI partition sizes can be found here:
https://superuser.com/questions/1310927/what-is-the-absolute-minimum-size-a-uefi-system-partition-can-be
I have found 128MiB works pretty consistently across both
tools (mkfs.fat) and firmwares (EDKII)
scripts: gen_image_generic: allow the partition types to be set
The use case for this is to set the kernel partition as the
EFI system partition. Versions of U-Boot with the
EFI boot manager (eficonfig and efidebug commands) will
store their boot order data on the ESP.

armvirt: update README with new image names
The introduction of EFI support has changed how armvirt
images are generated. The kernel and filesystem binaries
can still be used as before with QEMU directly.
armvirt: disable LD dead code elimination on ARM32
This interferes with the generation of the EFI stub section for
ARM32. As this target is not size constrained, disable the dead code
data elimination hack.
Its currently impossible to flash/recover the device using that image as
losetup is missing:

Failed to detach all loop devices. Skip this try.
So lets fix it by including the needed utils for sysupgrade in

Some individual build items install a group of programs

Add support for installing stampfiles for each of the

of what is installed by the rest of the build system,

prereq-build: replace relative symlinks only if broken
Some programs installed to staging_dir/host/bin
also install some symlinks to itself
for an alternative name.
Some of those new symlinks are overwriting
symlinks that were installed by prereq stage.
If prereq stage were to somehow be run again,
it should not be overwriting symlinks
that point to programs that are already built.
To filter that out, catch all symlinks
after first catching all symlinks
that have an absolute target
after all other cases in the case statement,
make sure it is not broken, and if so exit successfully.

prereq-build: do not replace binaries with symlinks
Some programs, like bash and patch, are checked by prereq stage
and have a symlink installed, but then is later built from source.
Now that the prereq-build checks are not successful
just by finding the file alone, it is possible for
a new symlink to overwrite the installed binary.
If a normal file is found in staging_dir/host/bin,
let the check look for the associated stampfile, and if found,
skip creation of a symlink and exit successfully.

prereq-build: fix inconsistent value of $PATH
In the recipe SetupHostCommand for checking
and creating symlinks, $PATH was only overridden
for one of several commands.
This causes the symlinks to be included
in the paths to pick a program from
when the check was repeated, because
staging_dir/host/bin was included in $PATH,
but only *sometimes*.
When the check ran again, the command succeded
with a $PATH including the symlink,
(eval "$$$$$$$$cmd")
while the path to the program was evaluated
with a $PATH NOT including the symlink,
(bin=...)
causing the symlink to be relinked incorrectly,
instead of passing as exactly the same.
Coincidentally, this was only a problem
if the symlink targeted the alternative
program with a different name.
By overriding the value of $PATH at the invocation of Make,
it will apply to the entire environment of the checks.
