firmware: add custom IPQ wifi board definitions On the ath10k-devel ML Michael Kazior stated: "board-2 is a key-value store of actual board files. Some devices, notably qca61x4 hw3+ and qca4019 need distinct board files to be uploaded. Otherwise they fail in various ways." [0]. Later on Rajkumar Manoharan explained: "In QCA4019 platform, only radio specific calibration (pre-cal-data) is stored in flash. Board specific contents are read from board-2.bin. For each radio appropriate board data should be loaded. To fetch correct board data from board-2.bin bundle, pre-cal/radio specific caldata should be loaded first to get proper board id. |My understanding until now was that: | | * pre-cal data + board-2.bin info == actual calibration data Correct." [1]. The standard board-2.bin from the ath10k-firmware-qca4019 barely works on the RT-AC58U. Especially 5GHz clients fail to connect at all and if they do, they have very low throughput even right next to the router. Currently, the solution for this problem is to supply a custom board-2.bin for every device. To implement this feature, this method makes use of: Rafał Miłecki's "base-files: add support for overlaying rootfs content". This comes with a few limitations: 1. Since there can only be one board-2.bin at the right location, there can only one board overwrite installed at any time. (All packages CONFLICT with each other. It's also not possible to "builtin" multiple package.) 2. updating ath10k-firmware-qca4019 will also replace the board-2.bin. For this cases the user needs to manually reinstall the wifi-board package once the ath10k-firmware-qca4019 is updated. To create the individual board-2.bin: Use the ath10k-bdencoder utility from the qca-swiss-army-knife repository: <https://github.com/qca/qca-swiss-army-knife> The raw board.bin files have to be extracted from the vendor's source GPL.tar archieves.

ipq40xx: add support for Netgear EX6100v2/EX6150v2 Specifications: SOC: Qualcomm IPQ4018 (DAKOTA) ARM Quad-Core RAM: 256 MB Winbond W632GU6KB12J FLASH: 16 MiB Macronix MX25L12805D ETH: Qualcomm QCA8072 WLAN1: Qualcomm Atheros QCA4018 2.4GHz 802.11b/g/n/ac 2x2 WLAN2: Qualcomm Atheros QCA4018 5GHz 802.11n/ac 1x1 (EX6100) 2x2 (EX6150) INPUT: Power, WPS, reset button AP / Range-extender toggle LED: Power, Router, Extender (dual), WPS, Left-/Right-arrow SERIAL: Header next to QCA8072 chip. VCC, TX, RX, GND (Square hole is VCC) WARNING: The serial port needs a TTL/RS-232 v3.3 level converter! The Serial setting is 115200-8-N-1. Tested and working: - Ethernet - 2.4 GHz WiFi (Correct MAC-address) - 5 GHz WiFi (Correct MAC-address) - Factory installation from WebIF - Factory installation from tftp - OpenWRT sysupgrade (Preserving and non-preserving) - LEDs - Buttons Not Working: - AP/Extender toggle-switch Untested: - Support on EX6100v2. They share the same GPL-Code and vendor-images. The 6100v2 seems to lack one 5GHz stream and differs in the 5GHz board-blob. I only own a EX6150v2, therefore i am only able to verify functionality on this device. Install via Web-Interface: Upload the factory image to the device to the Netgear Web-Interface. The device might asks you to confirm the update a second time due to detecting the OpenWRT firmware as older. The device will automatically reboot after the image is written to flash. Install via TFTP: Connect to the devices serial. Hit Enter-Key in bootloader to stop autobooting. Command "fw_recovery" will start a tftp server, waiting for a DNI image to be pushed. Assign your computer the IP-address 192.168.1.10/24. Push image with tftp -4 -v -m binary 192.168.1.1 -c put <OPENWRT_FACTORY> Device will erase factory-partition first, then writes the pushed image to flash and reboots.

The Serial setting is 115200-8-N-1. The board has an unpopulated 1x4 0.1" header. The pinout (VDD, RX, GND, TX) is printed on the PCB right next to the connector. U-Boot Note: The ethernet driver isn't always reliable and can sometime time out... Don't worry, just retry. Access via the serial console is required. As well as a working TFTP-server setup and the initramfs image. (If not provided, it has to be built from the OpenWrt source. Make sure to enable LZMA as the compression for the INITRAMFS!) To install the image permanently, you have to do the following steps in the listed order. 1. Open up the router. There are four phillips screws hiding behind the four plastic feets on the underside. 2. Connect the serial cable (See notes above) 3. Connect your router via one of the four LAN-ports (yellow) to a PC which can set the IP-Address and ssh and scp from. If possible set your PC's IPv4 Address to 192.168.1.70 (As this is the IP-Address the Router's bootloader expects for the tftp server) 4. power up the router and enter the u-boot choose option 1 to upload the initramfs image. And follow through the ipv4 setup. Wait for your router's status LED to stop blinking rapidly and glow just blue. (The LAN LED should also be glowing blue). 3. Connect to the OpenWrt running in RAM The default IPv4-Address of your router will be 192.168.1.1. 1. Copy over the openwrt-sysupgrade.bin image to your router's temporary directory # scp openwrt-sysupgrade.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp 2. ssh from your PC into your router as root. # ssh root@192.168.1.1 The default OpenWrt-Image won't ask for a password. Simply hit the Enter-Key. Once connected...: run the following commands on your temporary installation 3. delete the "jffs2" ubi partition to make room for your new root partition # ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 --name=jffs2 4. install OpenWrt on the NAND Flash. # sysupgrade -v /tmp/openwrt-sysupgrade.bin - This will will automatically reboot the router - Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@gmail.com>

Flashing needs a serial adaptor, as well as patched ubootwrite utility (needs Little-Endian support). And a modified u-boot (enabled Ethernet). Meraki's original u-boot source can be found in: <https://github.com/riptidewave93/meraki-uboot/tree/mr33-20170427> Add images to do an installation via bootloader: 0. open up the MR33 and connect the serial console. 1. start the 2nd stage bootloader transfer from client pc: # ubootwrite.py --write=mr33-uboot.bin (The ubootwrite tool will interrupt the boot-process and hence it needs to listen for cues. If the connection is bad (due to the low-profile pins), the tool can fail multiple times and in weird ways. If you are not sure, just use a terminal program and see what the device is doing there. 2. power on the MR33 (with ethernet + serial cables attached) Warning: Make sure you do this in a private LAN that has no connection to the internet. - let it upload the u-boot this can take 250-300 seconds - 3. use a tftp client (in binary mode!) on your PC to upload the sysupgrade.bin (the u-boot is listening on 192.168.1.1) # tftp 192.168.1.1 binary put openwrt-ipq40xx-meraki_mr33-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin 4. wait for it to reboot 5. connect to your MR33 via ssh on 192.168.1.1 For more detailed instructions, please take a look at the: "Flashing Instructions for the MR33" PDF. This can be found on the wiki: <https://openwrt.org/toh/meraki/mr33> (A link to the mr33-uboot.bin + the modified ubootwrite is also there) Thanks to Jerome C. for sending an MR33 to Chris.
