base-files: set FAILSAFE in /etc/profile when /tmp/.failsafe exists
Since dropbear clears the environment, FAILSAFE was not set as intended in
failsafe mode. This also broke sysupgrade from failsafe mode over SSH.

busybox: add missing TARGET_CPPFLAGS and TARGET_LDFLAGS
Unconditionally pass TARGET_CPPFLAGS (not passed at all before) and
TARGET_LDFLAGS (passed only in certain non-default configuration before the
Makefile streamlining). Without these flags, hardening options
(PKG_FORTIFY_SOURCE and PKG_RELRO) were not actually applied to busybox.

The addition of these flags increases the size of the stripped busybox
binary by about 6KB (~4KB with fortify headers, ~2KB with "-znow -zrelro")
with the default hardening options PKG_FORTIFY_SOURCE_1 and PKG_RELRO_FULL.

include/package.mk: remove old configured stamps before attempting configuration
Some packages, e.g. busybox, explicitly remove old .configured stamps
before attempting configuration, rather than after the actual configuration
step. This seems like a good idea, as there will be no stamp left if
configuration fails. Change generic rules to work like this, so package-
specific rules can be dropped.

246916ddf4 brcm2708: use x86's upgrade scripts for all rpi targets
Advantages:
 - preserves existing partition layout on the sd-card.
   Only the boot and rootfs partition will be overwritten.

Please note that sysupgrade will refuse to upgrade, if the existing
installation  has an incompatible partition layout. Future changes
to the bootfs and/or rootfs partition size will likely cause breakage
to the sysupgrade procedure. In these cases, the ext4-sdcard.img.gz
will have to be written to the sdcard manually.
Please don't forget to backup your configuration in this case.

778543dab4 brcm2708: add compatible strings
This patch adds the compatible string for the various RPIs from
4.14 upstream.

Note: The 4.14 upstream does not include the compute modules.
If the CM* would just house the SoC, it could in theory use the
"raw" chip compatible string. However, these CM boards also come
with RAM and eMMC. So they have to have a proper comaptible.

For now, "raspberrypi,compute-module-{1|3}" will be good enough.

Note2: The original CM was renamed to CM1 when CM3 was released.

TP-Link TL-MR3420 v5 are simple N300 router with
5-port FE switch and non-detachable antennas.
Its very similar to TP-Link TL-WR841N V13.

Specification:

- MT7628N/N (580 MHz)
- 64 MB of RAM (DDR2)
- 8 MB of FLASH
- 2T2R 2.4 GHz
- 5x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
- 2x external, non-detachable antennas
- USB 2.0 Port
- UART (J1) header on PCB (115200 8n1)
- 8x LED, 2x button, power input switch

Flash instruction:

The only way to flash LEDE image in mr3420v5 is to use
tftp recovery mode in U-Boot:

1. Configure PC with static IP 192.168.0.225/24 and tftp server.
2. Rename "lede-ramips-mt7628-tplink_tl-mr3420-v5-squashfs-tftp-recovery.bin"
   to "tp_recovery.bin" and place it in tftp server directory.
3. Connect PC with one of LAN ports, press the reset button, power up
   the router and keep button pressed for around 6-7 seconds, until
   device starts downloading the file.
4. Router will download file from server, write it to flash and reboot.

dda2229c52 layerscape: fix package download
The git hash was changed for multiple layerscape packages without
changing the version number. The LEDE build system will not download the
packages again if the old version is already there and so some people
and the build bots are using wrong version of some packages. Use
PKG_SOURCE_DATE instead of PKG_VERSION to generate packages with the
date and the first charterers of the git hash. This will change the file
name and make the build system download them again, also if in future
the git hash is changed the file name will change and trigger a new
download.

64b36fee8e apm821xx: dts: append SoC compatible to DTS
This patch appends the "apm,bluestone" or "amcc,apollo3g"
machine compatible string to the current device tree source.

Please note that unlike other archs the PPC DT code does
not regard the machine's compatible string as a priority
list. This is explained in the kernel's usage-model.txt as follows:
"PowerPC uses a slightly different scheme where it calls the .probe()
hook from each machine_desc, and the first one returning TRUE is used.
However, this approach does not take into account the priority of the
compatible list, and probably should be avoided for new architecture
support."

For this reason, the "apm,bluestone" compatible string can't be
added to the WNDR4700. As otherwise the target specific pci
fix-up code will get ignored and this causes the ath9k WIFI
to not get initialized.

e4a50d115f apm821xx: replace DEVICE_{PROFILE|NAME} with BOARD_NAME
This patch sets the BOARD_NAME variable on each affected
apm821xx device. The existing DEVICE_PROFILE and
DEVICE_NAME assignments are deprecated as they no longer
serve any purpose.

The BOARD_NAME variable is used by the sysupgrade-tar
method to specifiy a directory overwrite for the
sysupgrade-$dir directory in the generated tar file.
Keeping the original boardname in this context will be
necessary for targets that utilize the sysupgrade-tar
method. Otherwise, sysupgrade on an previous installation
will not recognize the newly generated images.

This step is necessary since an upcoming patch realigns
the existing shortname for a device with a proper
"manufacturer_device" identifier.

c0e131b436 ramips: add support for newifi d2
Previously Newifi D2 could only use PandoraBox M1's firmware.
It works fine, but LED GPIO is different.
As a result, a separated DTS file for this device should be implemented.

Hardware spec:

* CPU: MTK MT7621A
* RAM: 512MB
* ROM: 32MB SPI Flash
* WiFi: MTK MT7603+MT7612
* Button: 2 buttons (reset, wps)
* LED: 3 single-color LEDs (USB, WiFi 2.4GHz, WiFi 5GHz) &
       2 dual-color LEDs (Power, Internet)
* Ethernet: 5 ports, 4 LAN + 1 WAN

Installation method:

Same as Newifi D1, users may need to request unlock code from the device
manufacturer. Otherwise, a SPI flash programmer may be necessary to get
the firmware flashed. After the device is unlocked, press and hold reset
button before power cable plugs in. Then go to http://192.168.1.1 to
upload and flash the firmware package.

fe6f298b07 ramips: add support for Vonets VAR11N-300
The VAR11N-300 is a tiny wireless-N device with a hardwired Ethernet
cable, one extra Ethernet port, and an internal antenna, based on the
MediaTek MT7620n chipset.

Specs:
- MT7620n WiSoC @ 600MHz
- 32 MB SDRAM
- 4 MB SPI flash
- 2T2R 2.4GHz WiFi-N
- 1 attached 10/100 Ethernet cable (LAN)
- 1 10/100 Ethernet port (WAN)
- 1 attached USB / barrel 5vdc power cable
- 5 LEDs (see notes below)
- 1 reset button
- 1 UART (3 pads on board)

Installation:

The stock firmware does not support uploading new firmware directly,
only checking the manufacturer's site for updates.  This process may be
possible to spoof, but the update check uses some kind of homebrew
encryption that I didn't investigate.  Instead, you can install via a
backdoor:

1. Set up a TFTP server to serve the firmware binary
(lede-ramips-mt7620-var11n-300-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin)
2. Factory reset the device by holding the reset button for a few
seconds.
3. Open the web interface (default IP: 192.168.253.254)
4. Log in with the "super admin" credentials: username `vonets`,
password `vonets26642519`.
5. On the "Operative Status" page, click the text "System Uptime", then
quickly click the uptime value.
6. If successful, an alert dialog will appear reading "Ated start", and
the device will now accept telnet connections.  If the alert does not
appear, repeat step 5 until it works (the timing is a bit tricky).
7. Telnet to the device using credentials "admin / admin"
8. Retrieve the firmware binary from the tftp server: `tftp -l lede.bin
-r lede-ramips-mt7620-var11n-300-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin -g
<tftp-server-ip>`
9. Write the firmware to flash: `mtd_write write lede.bin /dev/mtd4`
10. Reboot

Tested:
- LAN / WAN ethernet
- WiFi
- LAN / WAN / status LED GPIOs (see notes below)
- Reset button
- Sysupgrade

Notes:

LEDs:

The board has 5 LEDs - two green LEDs for LAN / WAN activity, one blue
LED for WiFi, and a pair of "status" LEDs connected to the same GPIO
(the blue LED lights when the GPIO is low, and the green when it's
high).  I was unable to determine how to operate the WiFi LED, as it
does not appear to be controlled by a GPIO directly.

Recovery:

The default U-boot installation will only boot from flash due to a
missing environment block.  I generated a valid 4KB env block using
U-boot's `fw_setenv` tool and wrote it to flash at 0x30000 using an
external programmer.  After this, it was possible to enter the U-boot
commandline interface and download a new image via TFTP (`tftpboot
81b00000 <image-filename>`), but while I could boot this image
sucessfully (`bootm`), writing it to flash (`cp.linux`) just corrupted
the flash chip.  The sysupgrade file can be written to flash at 0x50000
using an external programmer.

ad002c397a ramips: add helper variable for boardname
Add a helper variable which contains the boardname separated from the
vendor name. It allows to switch to a device tree compatible string
based boardname, by keeping the $board:colour:function syntax in
scripts handling/adding config for LEDs.

Boards not using the device tree compatible string as based boardname
are unaffected by the change, since none of them uses a comma in the
boardname.
