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.
