uboot-lantiq: danube: fix hanging lzma kernel uncompression

2021-11-14T19:24:45Z

At least since gcc 7.3.0 (OpenWrt 18.06) lwr/lwl are used in the assembly of LzmaProps_Decode. While the decission made by the compiler looks perfect fine, it triggers some obscure hang on lantiq danube-s v1.5 with MX29LV640EB NOR flash chips. Only if the offset 1 is used, the hang can be observed. Using any other offset works fine: lwl s0,0(a1) - s0 == 0x6d000080 lwl s0,1(a1) - hangs lwl s0,2(a1) - s0 == 0x0080xxxx lwl s0,3(a1) - s0 == 0x80xxxxxx It isn't clear whether it is a limitation of the flash chip, the EBU or something else. Force 8bit reads to prevent gcc optimizing the read with lwr/lwl instructions. Signed-off-by: Mathias Kresin

ramips: add support for Linksys EA8100 v1

2021-06-10T15:09:35Z

Specifications: - SoC: MT7621AT - RAM: 256MB - Flash: 128MB NAND - Ethernet: 5 Gigabit ports - WiFi: 2.4G/5G MT7615N - USB: 1 USB 3.0, 1 USB 2.0 This device is very similar to the EA7300 v1/v2 and EA7500 v2. Installation: Upload the generated factory image through the factory web interface. (following part taken from EA7300 v2 commit message:) This might fail due to the A/B nature of this device. When flashing, OEM firmware writes over the non-booted partition. If booted from 'A', flashing over 'B' won't work. To get around this, you should flash the OEM image over itself. This will then boot the router from 'B' and allow you to flash OpenWRT without problems. Reverting to factory firmware: Hard-reset the router three times to force it to boot from 'B.' This is where the stock firmware resides. To remove any traces of OpenWRT from your router simply flash the OEM image at this point. With thanks to Leon Poon (@LeonPoon) for the initial bringup.

ramips: add support for Amped Wireless ALLY router and extender

2021-06-10T15:09:35Z

Amped Wireless ALLY is a whole-home WiFi kit, with a router (model ALLY-R1900K) and an Extender (model ALLY-00X19K). Both are devices are 11ac and based on MediaTek MT7621AT and MT7615N chips. The units are nearly identical, except the Extender lacks a USB port and has a single Ethernet port. Specification: - SoC: MediaTek MT7621AT (2C/4T) @ 880MHz - RAM: 128MB DDR3 (Nanya NT5CC64M16GP-DI) - FLASH: 128MB NAND (Winbond W29N01GVSIAA) - WiFi: 2.4/5 GHz 4T4R - 2.4GHz MediaTek MT7615N bgn - 5GHz MediaTek MT7615N nac - Switch: SoC integrated Gigabit Switch - USB: 1x USB3 (Router only) - BTN: Reset, WPS - LED: single RGB - UART: through-hole on PCB. J1: pin1 (square pad, towards rear)=3.3V, pin2=RX, pin3=GND, pin4=TX. Settings: 57600/8N1. Note regarding dual system partitions ------------------------------------- The vendor firmware and boot loader use a dual partition scheme. The boot partition is decided by the bootImage U-boot environment variable: 0 for the 1st partition, 1 for the 2nd. OpenWrt does not support this scheme and will always use the first OS partition. It will set bootImage to 0 during installation, making sure the first partition is selected by the boot loader. Also, because we can't be sure which partition is active to begin with, a 2-step flash process is used. We first flash an initramfs image, then follow with a regular sysupgrade. Installation: Router (ALLY-R1900K) 1) Install the flashable initramfs image via the OEM web-interface. (Alternatively, you can use the TFTP recovery method below.) You can use WiFi or Ethernet. The direct URL is: http://192.168.3.1/07_06_00_firmware.html a. No login is needed, and you'll be in their setup wizard. b. You might get a warning about not being connected to the Internet. c. Towards the bottom of the page will be a section entitled "Or Manually Upgrade Firmware from a File:" where you can manually choose and upload a firmware file. d: Click "Choose File", select the OpenWRT "initramfs" image and click "Upload." 2) The Router will flash the OpenWrt initramfs image and reboot. After booting, LuCI will be available on 192.168.1.1. 3) Log into LuCI as root; there is no password. 4) Optional (but recommended) is to backup the OEM firmware before continuing; see process below. 5) Complete the Installation by flashing a full OpenWRT image. Note: you may use the sysupgrade command line tool in lieu of the UI if you prefer. a. Choose System -> Backup/Flash Firmware. b. Click "Flash Image..." under "Flash new firmware image" c. Click "Browse..." and then select the sysupgrade file. d. Click Upload to upload the sysupgrade file. e. Important: uncheck "Keep settings and retain the current configuration" for this initial installation. f. Click "Continue" to flash the firmware. g. The device will reboot and OpenWRT is installed. Extender (ALLY-00X19K) 1) This device requires a TFTP recovery procedure to do an initial load of OpenWRT. Start by configuring a computer as a TFTP client: a. Install a TFTP client (server not necessary) b. Configure an Ethernet interface to 192.168.1.x/24; don't use .1 or .6 c. Connect the Ethernet to the sole Ethernet port on the X19K. 2) Put the ALLY Extender in TFTP recovery mode. a. Do this by pressing and holding the reset button on the bottom while connecting the power. b. As soon as the LED lights up green (roughly 2-3 seconds), release the button. 3) Start the TFTP transfer of the Initramfs image from your setup machine. For example, from Linux: tftp -v -m binary 192.168.1.6 69 -c put initramfs.bin 4) The Extender will flash the OpenWrt initramfs image and reboot. After booting, LuCI will be available on 192.168.1.1. 5) Log into LuCI as root; there is no password. 6) Optional (but recommended) is to backup the OEM firmware before continuing; see process below. 7) Complete the Installation by flashing a full OpenWRT image. Note: you may use the sysupgrade command line tool in lieu of the UI if you prefer. a. Choose System -> Backup/Flash Firmware. b. Click "Flash Image..." under "Flash new firmware image" c. Click "Browse..." and then select the sysupgrade file. d. Click Upload to upload the sysupgrade file. e. Important: uncheck "Keep settings and retain the current configuration" for this initial installation. f. Click "Continue" to flash the firmware. g. The device will reboot and OpenWRT is installed. Backup the OEM Firmware: ----------------------- There isn't any downloadable firmware for the ALLY devices on the Amped Wireless web site. Reverting back to the OEM firmware is not possible unless we have a backup of the original OEM firmware. The OEM firmware may be stored on either /dev/mtd3 ("firmware") or /dev/mtd6 ("oem"). We can't be sure which was overwritten with the initramfs image, so backup both partitions to be safe. 1) Once logged into LuCI, navigate to System -> Backup/Flash Firmware. 2) Under "Save mtdblock contents," first select "firmware" and click "Save mtdblock" to download the image. 3) Repeat the process, but select "oem" from the pull-down menu. Revert to the OEM Firmware: -------------------------- * U-boot TFTP: Follow the TFTP recovery steps for the Extender, and use the backup image. * OpenWrt "Flash Firmware" interface: Upload the backup image and select "Force update" before continuing.

ramips: mt7621: Add support for ZyXEL NR7101

2021-06-10T15:09:35Z

The ZyXEL NR7101 is an 802.3at PoE powered 5G outdoor (IP68) CPE with integrated directional 5G/LTE antennas. Specifications: - SoC: MediaTek MT7621AT - RAM: 256 MB - Flash: 128 MB MB NAND (MX30LF1G18AC) - WiFi: MediaTek MT7603E - Switch: 1 LAN port (Gigabiti) - 5G/LTE: Quectel RG502Q-EA connected by USB3 to SoC - SIM: 2 micro-SIM slots under transparent cover - Buttons: Reset, WLAN under same cover - LEDs: Multicolour green/red/yellow under same cover (visible) - Power: 802.3at PoE via LAN port The device is built as an outdoor ethernet to 5G/LTE bridge or router. The Wifi interface is intended for installation and/or temporary management purposes only. UART Serial: 57600N1 Located on populated 5 pin header J5: [o] GND [ ] key - no pin [o] RX [o] TX [o] 3.3V Vcc Remove the SIM/button/LED cover, the WLAN button and 12 screws holding the back plate and antenna cover together. The GPS antenna is fixed to the cover, so be careful with the cable. Remove 4 screws fixing the antenna board to the main board, again being careful with the cables. A bluetooth TTL adapter is recommended for permanent console access, to keep the router water and dustproof. The 3.3V pin is able to power such an adapter. MAC addresses: OpenWrt OEM Address Found as lan eth2 08:26:97:*:*:BC Factory 0xe000 (hex), label wlan0 ra0 08:26:97:*:*:BD Factory 0x4 (hex) wwan0 usb0 random WARNING!! ISP managed firmware might at any time update itself to a version where all known workarounds have been disabled. Never boot an ISP managed firmware with a SIM in any of the slots if you intend to use the router with OpenWrt. The bootloader lock can only be disabled with root access to running firmware. The flash chip is physically inaccessible without soldering. Installation from OEM web GUI: - Log in as "supervisor" on https://172.17.1.1/ - Upload OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.bin image on the Maintenance -> Firmware page - Wait for OpenWrt to boot and ssh to root@192.168.1.1 - (optional) Copy OpenWrt to the recovery partition. See below - Sysupgrade to the OpenWrt sysupgrade image and reboot Installation from OEM ssh: - Log in as "root" on 172.17.1.1 port 22022 - scp OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.bin image to 172.17.1.1:/tmp - Prepare bootloader config by running: nvram setro uboot DebugFlag 0x1 nvram setro uboot CheckBypass 0 nvram commit - Run "mtd_write -w write initramfs-recovery.bin Kernel" and reboot - Wait for OpenWrt to boot and ssh to root@192.168.1.1 - (optional) Copy OpenWrt to the recovery partition. See below - Sysupgrade to the OpenWrt sysupgrade image and reboot Copying OpenWrt to the recovery partition: - Verify that you are running a working OpenWrt recovery image from flash - ssh to root@192.168.1.1 and run: fw_setenv CheckBypass 0 mtd -r erase Kernel2 - Wait while the bootloader mirrors Image1 to Image2 NOTE: This should only be done after successfully booting the OpenWrt recovery image from the primary partition during installation. Do not do this after having sysupgraded OpenWrt! Reinstalling the recovery image on normal upgrades is not required or recommended. Installation from Z-Loader: - Halt boot by pressing Escape on console - Set up a tftp server to serve the OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.bin image at 10.10.10.3 - Type "ATNR 1,initramfs-recovery.bin" at the "ZLB>" prompt - Wait for OpenWrt to boot and ssh to root@192.168.1.1 - Sysupgrade to the OpenWrt sysupgrade image NOTE: ATNR will write the recovery image to both primary and recovery partitions in one go. Booting from RAM: - Halt boot by pressing Escape on console - Type "ATGU" at the "ZLB>" prompt to enter the U-Boot menu - Press "4" to select "4: Entr boot command line interface." - Set up a tftp server to serve the OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.bin image at 10.10.10.3 - Load it using "tftpboot 0x88000000 initramfs-recovery.bin" - Boot with "bootm 0x8800017C" to skip the 380 (0x17C) bytes ZyXEL header This method can also be used to RAM boot OEM firmware. The warning regarding OEM applies! Never boot an unknown OEM firmware, or any OEM firmware with a SIM in any slot. NOTE: U-Boot configuration is incomplete (on some devices?). You may have to configure a working mac address before running tftp using "setenv eth0addr " Unlocking the bootloader: If you are unebale to halt boot, then the bootloader is locked. The OEM firmware locks the bootloader on every boot by setting DebugFlag to 0. Setting it to 1 is therefore only temporary when OEM firmware is installed. - Run "nvram setro uboot DebugFlag 0x1; nvram commit" in OEM firmware - Run "fw_setenv DebugFlag 0x1" in OpenWrt NOTE: OpenWrt does this automatically on first boot if necessary NOTE2: Setting the flag to 0x1 avoids the reset to 0 in known OEM versions, but this might change. WARNING: Writing anything to flash while the bootloader is locked is considered extremely risky. Errors might cause a permanent brick! Enabling management access from LAN: Temporary workaround to allow installing OpenWrt if OEM firmware has disabled LAN management: - Connect to console - Log in as "root" - Run "iptables -I INPUT -i br0 -j ACCEPT" Notes on the OEM/bootloader dual partition scheme The dual partition scheme on this device uses Image2 as a recovery image only. The device will always boot from Image1, but the bootloader might copy Image2 to Image1 under specific conditions. This scheme prevents repurposing of the space occupied by Image2 in any useful way. Validation of primary and recovery images is controlled by the variables CheckBypass, Image1Stable, and Image1Try. The bootloader sets CheckBypass to 0 and reboots if Image1 fails validation. If CheckBypass is 0 and Image1 is invalid then Image2 is copied to Image1. If CheckBypass is 0 and Image2 is invalid, then Image1 is copied to Image2. If CheckBypass is 1 then all tests are skipped and Image1 is booted unconditionally. CheckBypass is set to 1 after each successful validation of Image1. Image1Try is incremented if Image1Stable is 0, and Image2 is copied to Image1 if Image1Try is 3 or larger. But the bootloader only tests Image1Try if CheckBypass is 0, which is impossible unless the booted image sets it to 0 before failing. The system is therefore not resilient against runtime errors like failure to mount the rootfs, unless the kernel image sets CheckBypass to 0 before failing. This is not yet implemented in OpenWrt. Setting Image1Stable to 1 prevents the bootloader from updating Image1Try on every boot, saving unnecessary writes to the environment partition. Keeping an OpenWrt initramfs recovery as Image2 is recommended primarily to avoid unwanted OEM firmware boots on failure. Ref the warning above. It enables console-less recovery in case of some failures to boot from Image1. Signed-off-by: Bjørn Mork Tested-by: Bjørn Mork (cherry picked from commit 2449a632084b29632605e5a79ce5d73028eb15dd)
