ath79: add support for TP-Link Deco S4
Add support for TP-Link Deco S4 wifi router The label refers to the device as S4R and the TP-Link firmware site calls it the Deco S4 v2. (There does not appear to be a v1) Hardware (and FCC id) are identical to the Deco M4R v2 but the flash layout is ordered differently and the OEM firmware encrypts some config parameters (including the label mac address) in flash In order to set the encrypted mac address, the wlan's caldata node is removed from the DTS so the mac can be decrypted with the help of the uencrypt tool and patched into the wlan fw via hotplug Specifications: SoC: QCA9563-AL3A RAM: Zentel A3R1GE40JBF Wireless 2.4GHz: QCA9563-AL3A (main SoC) Wireless 5GHz: QCA9886 Ethernet Switch: QCA8337N-AL3C Flash: 16 MB SPI NOR UART serial access (115200N1) on board via solder pads: RX = TP1 pad TX = TP2 pad GND = C201 (pad nearest board edge) The device's bootloader and web gui will only accept images that were signed using TP-Link's RSA key, however a memory safety bug in the bootloader can be leveraged to install openwrt without accessing the serial console. See developer forum S4 support page for link to a "firmware" file that starts a tftp client, or you may generate one on your own like this: ``` python - > deco_s4_faux_fw_tftp.bin <<EOF import sys from struct import pack b = pack('>I', 0x00008000) + b'X'*16 + b"fw-type:" \ + b'x'*256 + b"S000S001S002" + pack('>I', 0x80060200) \ b += b"\x00"*(0x200-len(b)) \ + pack(">33I", *[0x3c0887fc, 0x35083ddc, 0xad000000, 0x24050000, 0x3c048006, 0x348402a0, 0x3c1987f9, 0x373947f4, 0x0320f809, 0x00000000, 0x24050000, 0x3c048006, 0x348402d0, 0x3c1987f9, 0x373947f4, 0x0320f809, 0x00000000, 0x24050000, 0x3c048006, 0x34840300, 0x3c1987f9, 0x373947f4, 0x0320f809, 0x00000000, 0x24050000, 0x3c048006, 0x34840400, 0x3c1987f9, 0x373947f4, 0x0320f809, 0x00000000, 0x1000fff1, 0x00000000]) b += b"\xff"*(0x2A0-len(b)) + b"setenv serverip 192.168.0.2\x00" b += b"\xff"*(0x2D0-len(b)) + b"setenv ipaddr 192.168.0.1\x00" b += b"\xff"*(0x300-len(b)) + b"tftpboot 0x81000000 initramfs-kernel.bin\x00" b += b"\xff"*(0x400-len(b)) + b"bootm 0x81000000\x00" b += b"\xff"*(0x8000-len(b)) sys.stdout.buffer.write(b) EOF ``` Installation: 1. Run tftp server on pc with static ip 192.168.0.2 2. Place openwrt "initramfs-kernel.bin" image in tftp root dir 3. Connect pc to router ethernet port1 4. While holding in reset button on bottom of router, power on router 5. From pc access router webgui at http://192.168.0.1 6. Upload deco_s4_faux_fw_tftp.bin 7. Router will load and execture in-memory openwrt 8. Switch pc back to dhcp or static 192.168.1.x 9. Flash openwrt sysupgrade image via luci/ssh at 192.168.1.1 Revert to stock: Press and hold reset button while powering device to start the bootloader's recovery mode, where stock firmware can be uploaded via web gui at 192.168.0.1 Please note that one additional non-github commits is also needed: firmware-utils: add tplink-safeloader support for Deco S4 Signed-off-by: Nick French <nickfrench@gmail.com>
