mediatek: filogic: add support for AlwayLink M01K43
Add support for the AlwayLink M01K43 5G CPE router. Hardware specifications: - SoC: MediaTek MT7981B (Filogic 820), dual-core Cortex-A53 - RAM: 256 MiB DDR3 (0x40000000, size 0x10000000) - Flash: 128 MiB SPI-NAND (UBI, root) + 4 MiB SPI-NOR (bootloader) - Ethernet: 4x 1 GbE LAN + 1x 2.5 GbE WAN (MT7531 DSA switch; WAN via RTL8221B 2.5GbE PHY on MAC1) - WiFi: MT7981 built-in 2x2 802.11ax (2.4 GHz + 5 GHz) - USB: 1x xHCI (USB 2.0 only; USB 3.0 PHY pins not routed) - Modem: M.2 B-Key slot wired for USB (tested: Quectel RM551E-GL, Quectel RM520N-GL via QMI) - LEDs: 10x GPIO LEDs (status, WAN, LAN, WiFi 2.4/5, signal bars) - Buttons: WPS, Reset, RFKill - Power: 12 V DC barrel jack - UART: 3.3 V TTL header on PCB, 115200 8N1, no flow control PCB silkscreen: M01K43 v5.0 Manufacturer: Shenzhen AlwayLink Wireless Technology Co., Ltd. MAC addresses come from the 'ledeinfo' partition (mtd6) at offset 0x18 (label macaddr_ledeinfo_18); the stored value is the LAN MAC. interface this port vendor firmware ------------------- ----------- -------------------------- eth0 / LAN bridge base + 0 base + 0 eth1 / WAN base + 1 base + 1 wifi 2.4 GHz band@0 base + 2 base (driver-derived) wifi 5 GHz band@1 base + 3 base + LAA bit (driver) The vendor's ethernet scheme (LAN = base, WAN = base + 1) is reproduced exactly. For WiFi the vendor's proprietary mt_wifi driver ignores the stored per-radio MAC and derives each BSSID from the base by setting the locally-administered bit, so the radios are not given clean unicast offsets. Under mainline mt76 + DSA, reusing the base (LAN) MAC on a radio collides at L2 with the gmac0 conduit, so this port assigns the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios base + 2 and base + 3 — unique unicast addresses in the same OUI block. Installation ------------ Stock firmware defaults (verified on shipping units): LAN IP: 192.168.100.1 SSH/web: user 'root', password 'admin' Serial: 3.3 V TTL UART header on PCB, 115200 8N1, no flow control Image artifacts produced by this device definition: openwrt-mediatek-filogic-alwaylink_m01k43-squashfs-factory.bin openwrt-mediatek-filogic-alwaylink_m01k43-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin Before flashing, back up the per-unit partitions (cannot be regenerated): ssh root@192.168.100.1 dd if=/dev/mtd3 of=/tmp/factory.bin bs=1 count=655360 dd if=/dev/mtd6 of=/tmp/ledeinfo.bin bs=1 count=65536 exit scp root@192.168.100.1:/tmp/factory.bin . scp root@192.168.100.1:/tmp/ledeinfo.bin . Method 1 - From an existing OpenWrt install (sysupgrade): IMG=openwrt-mediatek-filogic-alwaylink_m01k43-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin scp "$IMG" root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/sysupgrade.bin ssh root@192.168.1.1 sysupgrade -n /tmp/sysupgrade.bin Method 2 - U-Boot serial recovery via TFTP (requires 3.3 V USB-UART adapter): 1. Attach 3.3 V USB-UART (TX, RX, GND) to the PCB header. Open a terminal at 115200 8N1, no flow control. 2. Configure a TFTP server on the host PC at IP 192.168.2.88. Place the factory image in the TFTP root, renamed if desired. 3. Power on the router. The BL2/U-Boot banner prints within ~1 second; press any key during the autoboot countdown to enter the U-Boot menu. 4. From the menu, select 'Upgrade ubi'. U-Boot's default IP is 192.168.2.1 and it expects the TFTP server at 192.168.2.88. Provide the factory image filename when prompted. 5. Wait for the write to complete; U-Boot reboots into OpenWrt. Method 3 - From a NAND programmer (brick-recovery path): 1. Clip onto or desolder the SPI-NAND chip and dump the full 128 MiB with a programmer (e.g. RT809H, CH341A with NAND adapter). Keep the dump as a recovery image. 2. Using the same programmer, write the factory.bin image to the UBI region of the NAND. The SPI-NOR (BL2/u-boot-env/ Factory/FIP/woem/ledeinfo/nvram) must NOT be erased - those partitions are per-unit and live on the separate 4 MiB NOR. 3. Reseat the chip and power on. The bootloader on NOR will load the new kernel and rootfs from UBI.
