The firmware image that is used in TP-Link RE450 (and some more devices from
the RE series) is tplink-safeloader.
In the kernel partition, the kernel is compressed in a regular tp-link
firmware that is just used for booting. Since it is only used for compressing
and booting, only four fields are filled in the header:
Vendor, version, kernel load address and kernel entry point.
mktplinkfw-kernel is a simpler version of mktpolinkfw that generate such
images. It also specifies the hardware id (as it is in the product info
section), so when doing a sysupgrade - the existing code will check for
hardware compatibility.

This patch adds supports for the WNR2000v1 board with 4MB flash, and
produces device-specific factory, rootfs, and sysupgrade files for the
WNR2000v1. This board is errorneously claimed as supported on the OpenWRT
wiki as AP81, but AP81 image would not work because of APT81 image
requiring having 8MB of flash, while WNR2000v1 has only 4MB.
The image requires the u-boot bootloader to be modified to fuhry's
bootloader first.
Short specification:
- CPU: Atheros AR9132
- 4x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet, 1x WAN 10/100 Mbps
- 4 MB of Flash
- 32 MB of RAM
- UART header (J1) on board
- 1x button
Factory/Initial flash instructions:
- Set up a TFTP server on your local machine.
- Download the uImage for ar71xx-generic and the rootfs image for
ar71xx-generic-wnr2000 and save in the tftp server root.
- Gain serial access to the router via the UART port (telnetenable over
the network only won't work!).
- Upgrade the u-boot bootloader to fuhry's version by running the
script: http://fuhry.com/b/wnr2000/install-repart.sh
- When the router restarts, interrupt u-boot and gain access to u-boot command line.
- Repartititon the board and flash initial uImage and rootfs as follow.
Commands to type in u-boot:
# tells u-boot that we have a tftp server on 192.168.1.10
setenv serverip 192.168.1.10
# tells u-boot that the router should take the address 192.168.1.1
setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
# erase the region from 0x050000-0x3f0000
erase 0xbf050000 +0x3A0000
# loads sqfs.bin on TFTP server, and put it to memory address 0x81000000
tftpboot 0x81000000 sqfs.bin
# it will tell you the length of sqfs.bin in hex, let's say ZZZZZZ
# copy bit by bit 0xZZZZZZ bytes from offset 0x050000
cp.b 0x81000000 0xbf050000 0xZZZZZZ
# same to the uImage.bin, write it right next to sqfs.bin
# again, 0xYYYYYY is the length that tftpboot reports
tftpboot 0x81000000 uImage.bin
cp.b 0x81000000 0xbf2a0000 0xYYYYYY
# We need to tell the kernel what board it is booting into, and where to find the partitions
setenv bootargs "board=WNR2000 console=ttyS0,115200 mtdparts=spi0.0:256k(u-boot)ro,64k(u-boot-env)ro,3712k(firmware),64k(art)ro rootfstype=squashfs,jffs2 noinitrd"
# Tell u-boot where to find the uImage
setenv bootcmd "bootm 0xbf2a0000"
# Tell u-boot to save parameters to the u-boot-env partitions
saveenv
# Reset the board
reset
Tested on:
- WNR2000v1 board.
- Initial flash works.
Known bugs:
- I don't know why factory image doesn't work on initial flash on stock
firmware in u-boot recovery mode while it should.
- Sysupgrade does not yet work, if you do -f it will mess up your
installation (requiring a reinstall of sqfs and uImage).

On the stock Meraki Firmare for the MR12/MR16, a chunk of SPI space
after u-boot-env is used to store the boards Mac address. Sadly as this
was removed on any device already on OpenWRT/LEDE, moving forward a new,
64k partition named "mac" will be used to store the mac address for the
device (which is the minimum size). This allows users to properly set
the correct MAC, without editing the ART partition (which holds the same
MAC for all devices).
The reason the space is taken from kernel instead of rootfs is currently
kernels are only 1.3MB, so that way we can leave the current rootfs
space alone for users who fully utilize the available storage space.
Once this partition is added to a device, you can set your MAC doing the
following:
mtd erase mac
echo -n -e '\x00\x18\x0a\x33\x44\x55' > /dev/mtd5
sync && reboot
Where 00:18:0a:33:44:55 is your MAC address.
This was tested, and confirmed working on both the MR12 and MR16.

This moves the Meraki MR12 and Meraki MR16 to the new generic target.
Tested and verified working on both devices.
Note that kernel/rootfs images are still generated. This is because they
are used for the inital flashing process due to the fun pace at which
UBoot erases/writes to SPI.

There is no US firmware for the TL-WA901ND v4 yet, so we'll just
unconditionally set the EU region for now.
This makes LEDE flashable on these devices again. The format of the region
string is slightly different from the one used on the Archer C7 that is
generated by mktplinkfw (the second half of the region string is missing),
but it's similar enough to make it work.

This patch adds support for the Airtight C-60.
SOC: Atheros AR9344 rev 2 (CPU:560.000MHz)
RAM: 128 MiB
NOR: MX25L3205D 4MiB
NAND: ST Micro NAND 32MiB 3,3V 8-bit
SW-NET: AR8327N (2 Ports)
WLAN1: Dual-Band AR9340 Rev:2 (built-in SoC)
WLAN2: Dual-Band AR9300 Rev:4 PCIe Chip
The switch is setup for an accesspoint:
LAN1: (gigabit) is the wan-port.
LAN2: (fast ethernet) is bridged with the br-lan.
Flashing Guide (via initramfs):
1. Connect a PC to the serial port of the C-60.
power up the C-60.
Enter u-boot command prompt:
#> nand erase
#> setenv bootcmd "bootm 0x9f060000"
#> saveenv
#> setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
#> setenv netmask 255.255.255.0
#> setenv serverip 192.168.1.100
#> setenv bootfile lede-ar71xx-nand-c-60-initramfs-kernel.bin
#> tftpboot
#> bootm
2. Wait for the C-60 to boot LEDE.
On the root prompt. Enter:
# ubiformat /dev/mtd4
# ubiattach -p /dev/mtd4
3. After that copy the sysupgrade.tar onto the router and run:
# sysupgrade sysupgrade.tar
to flash the image.
