ar71xx: drop target This target has been mostly replaced by ath79 and won't be included in the upcoming release anymore. Finally put it to rest. This also removes all references in packages, tools, etc. as well as the uboot-ar71xx and vsc73x5-ucode packages. Signed-off-by: Adrian Schmutzler <freifunk@adrianschmutzler.de>
ar71xx/mikrotik: enable mikrotik platform driver Signed-off-by: Thibaut VARÈNE <hacks@slashdirt.org>
ar71xx: reorganize kernel configuration Rather than including all machines for the generic subtarget in the base configuration, leave the base configuration without specific machines and create a proper subtarget config for ar71xx/generic. The configuration diffs of the mikrotik and nand subtargets get significantly shorter, as will the configurations of future subtargets.

ar71xx: disable devicetree support While we'd like to convert ar71xx to DT-based configuration eventually, we aren't quite there yet, and shipping half-baked DT support that is not used at all wastes precious space. Saves ~120KB before LZMA, ~33KB after LZMA. Run-tested on TP-Link CPE510 and TL-WR841 v7. Signed-off-by: Matthias Schiffer <mschiffer@universe-factory.net>
ar71xx/mikrotik: disable TP-Link TL-WR810N v2 board support It does not belongs to the MikroTik boards. Signed-off-by: Gabor Juhos <juhosg@freemail.hu>
ar71xx/mikrotik: disable unused MTD partitioning and split drivers Reduces the compressed kernel size by ~2.5KB. Signed-off-by: Gabor Juhos <juhosg@freemail.hu>
ar71xx/mikrotik: disable unused ethernet switch and phy drivers Disable the drivers for the following ethernet switches: Realtek RTL8306 Realtek RTL8366/8367 Marvell 88E6060 (DSA) Marvell 88E6063 (DSA) Also disable the phy driver for Marvell PHYs. None of the supported RouterBOARDs are using any device which needs these drivers. Disable the DSA framework too, because it is not required by the remaining switch drivers. This reduces the compressed kernel size by ~20KB. Signed-off-by: Gabor Juhos <juhosg@freemail.hu>
ar71xx: sort kernel configurations The symbols in some kernel configurations of the target are in wrong order. Sort them with kconfig.pl. Signed-off-by: Gabor Juhos <juhosg@freemail.hu>
ar71xx: add support for TP-Link TL-WR1043N v5 TP-Link TL-WR1043N v5 appears to be identical to the TL-WR1043ND v4, except that the USB port has been removed and there is no longer a removable antenna option. The software is more in line with the Archer series in that it uses a nested bootloader scheme. Specifications: - QCA9563 at 775 MHz - 64 MB RAM - 16 MB flash - 3 (non-detachable) Antennas / 450 Mbit - 1x/4x WAN/LAN Gbps Ethernet (QCA8337) - reset and Wi-Fi buttons Signed-off-by: Tim Thorpe <tim@tfthorpe.net> Signed-off-by: Ludwig Thomeczek <ledesrc@wxorx.net>

ar71xx: only use SPI NOR 4K sectors on smaller flash chips for mikrotik devices On NOR based Mikrotik devices, 4K sectors significantly slow down firmware flashing and jffs2 usage. On NAND based devices they may be necessary to run rbcfg (the boot loader config is often on SPI NOR). Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@nbd.name>
kernel: add support for limiting 4K erase sector support based on flash chip size Some targets need 4K sectors for small flash chips (e.g. some routerboards, where the entire chip is just one "erase block"), whereas on other devices 4K sectors lead to horrible flash erase/write performance. Set the default limit in the generic kernel configuration to 4 MiB to ensure that all new platforms don't use 4K sectors for bigger flash chips. On all existing targets use 16 MiB for now to avoid regressions. They will be changed individually in follow-up commits. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@nbd.name>
ar71xx: re-enable 4k sectors for the mikrotik subtargets On RB91x (and possibly others), there is a small SPI flash to store boot loader and configuration. It needs 4K sectors to be able to write the configuration using rbcfg Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@nbd.name>
ar71xx: Add kernel 4.9 support This add support for kernel 4.9 to the ar71xx target. It was compile tested with the generic, NAND and mikrotik subtarget. Multiple members of the community tested it on their boards and did not report any major problem so far. Especially the NAND part received some changes to adapt to the new kernel APIs. The serial driver hack used for the Arduino Yun was not ported because the kernel changed there a lot. Signed-off-by: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@hauke-m.de>
ar71xx: unify CONFIG_CMDLINE Booting from jffs2 directly is no longer supported, use rootfstype=squashfs consistently for all subtargets Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@nbd.name>

ar71xx: generic: enable CONFIG_MTD_SPLIT_TPLINK_FW We can use "tplink-fw" mtd splitter for TP-Link devices which use kernel with TP-Link header embedded inside "safeloader" image type and thus get rid of statically defined "kernel" and "rootfs" partitions in cmdline.
