The MBL's rootfs.img.gz image is generated in much the same way.
Hence this patch preemptively splits the rootfs.img.gz image into
a sysupgrade and a factory image.

This patch adds support for squashfs as the root filesystem.
advantages:
- migrate from a existing -ext4 installation and back
with the sysupgrade utility
- existing partition layout will not be lost during switch
- slightly smaller image size as compared to the -ext4 image.
disadvantages:
- needs f2fs + tools. This is because fstools rootdisk.c decides based
on the partition size (currently root partitions > 100 MiB) f2fs is
used as the rootfs_data filesystem.
- rootfs_data is placed into the rootfs partition after the squashfs.
This makes it difficult for tools that expect a /dev/sda${X} device.
It also makes it difficult for data recovery tools as they might not
expect to find a embedded partition or will be slightly confused.
... or will not support f2fs.
For people with existing build configurations: make sure to include mkf2fs
and f2fsck packages into the image. Otherwise the new -squashfs image will
only boot from the ram-overlay.
Note:
All overlay data (configurations/all installed packages/...) will be
placed in inside the rootfs partition (i.e. /dev/sda2) just after the
squashfs image.

@blogic told me to split the single sdcard.img.gz for the RPi
into a sysupgrade and a factory image for all brcm2708 targets.
The factory images will have no metadata attached, this way
these utilities that can't deal with the attached metadata will
not fail for no reason.

USB 3.0 PHY is attached to the MDIO bus and should be supported
(accessed) as a MDIO device. This wasn't known initially which resulted
in writing driver that was working with MDIO bus (using some magic

This is a new & warm feature that allows nesting partiitons in DT and
mixing their types (e.g. static vs. dynamic). It's very useful for
boards that have most partitions static but some of them require extra
parsing (e.g. a "firmware" partition).
It's required to successfully backport support for new devices using
that new syntax in their DT files.
Since brcm63xx has a custom alternative patch the upstream one is being
reverted for it. The plan is to make brcm63xx use the upstream
implementation.

The OCEDO Raccoon only has one ethernet port, but currently uci sections
for WAN and LAN are created.
Additionally, newer versions of the devices U-Boot (units with SteelWRT)
set the kernel-cmdline and therefore overwrite the partition-layout.

With a10a204aab ("kernel: make ubi auto-attach check for a tar file

mtd_read(). If the read fails, no check is done and the mount code is
called straight away.
Failing with an error message for such cases seems to me the cleaner way,
as it would allow to spot hidden/workaround issues.

The first block(s) of the ubi mtd device might be bad. We need to take
care on our own to skip the bad block(s) and read the next one(s).
Don't treat recoverable read errors as fatal and check for the UBI magic
if the data of a block could be recovered using ECC or similar.

Move the put_mtd_device() called on multiple error conditions to a goto
label to use it later for more error conditions.
The early return on failed open of the mtd device and mismatching mtd
type allows to get rid of one level of indentation. By jumping to the
cleanup code, a refcount bug is fixed for the wrong flash type condition.
While at it, make clear that we only check for the UBI magic if the read
from flash was successful.

Use of_mdiobus_register() to pass the ethernet phy node to the phy
drivers. This is needed for the at8030 phy driver which needs to know
the GPIO which is connected to the ar8030 reset pin.
This driver expects a child in gsw/etop node named "mdio-bus", which has
the ethernet phys defined:
&gsw {
phy-mode = "rmii";
phy-handle = <&phy0>;
mtd-mac-address = <&ath9k_cal 0xa91>;
mtd-mac-address-increment = <(-2)>;
mdio-bus {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
reg = <0>;
phy0: ethernet-phy@0 {
reg = <0>;
reset-gpios = <&gpio 34 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
};
};
};
Fallback to mdiobus_register() if no mdio-bus child node exists. This
way we don't need to touch all xway dts files, for which we don't know
the actual address on the mdio bus.

This patch adds support for the MikroTik RB931-2nD (hAP mini):
https://mikrotik.com/product/RB931-2nD
Specifications:
* SoC: Qualcomm QCA9533 (650MHz)
* RAM: 32MiB
* Storage: 16MiB SPI NOR flash
* Ethernet: 3x100M
* Wireless: QCA9533 built-in, dual-chain 802.11b/g/n
Installation:
1. Setup a DHCP/BOOTP Server with the following parameters:
* DHCP-Option 66 (TFTP server name): pointing to a local TFTP
server within the same subnet of the DHCP range
* DHCP-Option 67 (Bootfile-Name): matching the initramfs filename
of the to be booted image. The usable intramfs files are:
- openwrt-ar71xx-mikrotik-vmlinux-initramfs.elf
- openwrt-ar71xx-mikrotik-vmlinux-initramfs-lzma.elf
- openwrt-ar71xx-mikrotik-rb-nor-flash-16M-initramfs-kernel.bin
2. Press the reset button on the board and keep that pressed.
3. Connect the board to your local network via its Internet port.
4. Release the button after the LEDs on the board are turned off.
Now the board should load and start the initramfs image from
the TFTP server.
5. Now connect the board via either of its LAN ports (2 or 3).
6. Upload the sysupgrade image to the board with scp:
$ scp openwrt-ar71xx-mikrotik-rb-nor-flash-16M-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/fw.bin
7. Log in to the running system listening on 192.168.1.1 via ssh
as root (without password):
$ ssh root@192.168.1.1
8. Flash the uploaded firmware file from the ssh session via the
sysupgrade command:
root@OpenWrt:~# sysupgrade /tmp/fw.bin

Using the NAPI or netdev frag cache along with other drivers can lead to
32 KiB pages being held for a long time, despite only being used for
very few page fragment.
This can happen if the ethernet driver grabs one or two fragments for rx
ring refill, while other drivers use (and free up) the remaining
fragments. The 32 KiB higher-order page can only be freed once all users
have freed their fragments, which only happens after the rings of all
drivers holding the fragments have wrapped around.
Depending on the traffic patterns, this can waste a lot of memory and
look a lot like a memory leak

The line that produces factory image was accidentally left by me while
testing before inital commit.
I came to the conclusion that flashing from OEM firmware does not work
(seems to share this behavior with other tplinks based on mt7628).
I have not done any further analysis, as I was unable to open the
case and attach a serial port (too much glue). Maybe i will try once
more.
So the way to do initial flashing (or un-bricking) is to use the
tftp-recover image. It is possible to revert to OEM firmware with tftp
recovery; in this case the first 512 bytes the image file need to be
cut off.

Add a new config option to allow to select the default compile

optimization for size in their default kernel config.
Remove CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_* symbols from all kernel configs to apply the new
setting.
Exceptions to the above are:
- lantiq, where the optimization for size is only required for the
xway_legacy subtarget but was set for the whole target
- mediatek, ramips/mt7620 & ramips/mt76x8 where boards should have
