octeon: add new target and support for Ubiquiti EdgeRouter 6P
Ubiquiti EdgeRouter 6P is 6 port router with similar specifications as the EdgeRouter 4, support for which was added in commit dd651e54cc5eadba480a56a7d2c18471e560f491 There are five 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ/Copper ports and one 1000 Mbps SFP port. SoC: Octeon Cavium 7130 (Cavium 3) at 1000MHz Memory: 1GiB DDR3 Flash: 2x2M chips with uboots (chainloaded) + 512K eeprom LEDs: 1x for power status (white/blue, controllable) and 6x for ethernet and SFP ports (no control over them) Buttons: 1x Reset Serial: 1x RJ45 port on front panel. 115200 baud, 8N1 USB: 1x USB3.0 on front panel MII: 1x QSGMII from SoC PHY: 1x Vitesse VSC8504 of which 4 ports are used (phys 4-7) 1x Vitesse VSC8514 of which 2 ports are used (phys 8-9) Network port mapping - eth0 on device maps to lan0 and phy5 - eth1 on device maps to lan1 and phy6 - eth2 on device maps to lan2 and phy7 - eth3 on device maps to lan3 and phy8 - eth4 on device maps to lan4 and phy9 - eth5 (SFP) on device maps to lan5 and phy4 What is not working: - There is no port status available before it goes up - SFP have no additional status and presented as no different from eth - Power-over-ethernet (passive) support has not been tested How to flash the firmware: - copy openwrt-octeon-ubnt_edgerouter-6p-initramfs-kernel.bin and openwrt-octeon-ubnt_edgerouter-6p-squashfs-sysupgrade.tar to USB flash drive that is formatted to vfat/fat32 - connect USB flash drive to EdgeRouter 6P front USB port - connect serial cable using front RJ45 port (115200 baud, 8N1) - connect power to cable to EdgeRouter 6P - connect terminal to the console to see uboot boot process - interrupt boot by pressing button(s) on your keyboard to log in to the uboot - detect usb connected flash drives by typing to the console: usb start - after drive is detected load initramfs+kernel to the memory by typing: fatload usb 0:1 0x20000000 openwrt-octeon-ubnt_edgerouter-6p-initramfs-kernel.bin - after initramfs+kernel is loaded to the memory load it by typing: bootoctlinux 0 numcores=4 endbootargs mem=0 - boot process should finish and you will be greeted with console after pressing enter - create directory to mount usb flash drive to by typing: mkdir /tmp/sda - mount flash drive to that directory by typing: mount /dev/sda1 /tmp/sda - flash firmware to router internal storage by typing: sysupgrade /tmp/sda/openwrt-octeon-ubnt_edgerouter-6p-squashfs-sysupgrade.tar - device will reboot and after it gets up you will have edgerouter 6p running openwrt Signed-off-by: Dan Brown <danbrown@gmail.com> [reorder/squash patches, move ethernet@0 to DTS, share image setup] Signed-off-by: Adrian Schmutzler <freifunk@adrianschmutzler.de>
