* ath79: calibrate nand netgear wndrxxxx with nvmemEdward Chow2022-11-203-35/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Driver for both soc (2.4GHz Wifi) and pci (5 GHz) now pull the calibration data from the nvmem subsystem. This allows us to move the userspace caldata extraction for the pci-e ath9k supported wifi into the device-tree definition of the device. wmac's nodes are also changed over to use nvmem-cells over OpenWrt's custom mtd-cal-data property. The wifi mac address remains correct after these changes, because When both "mac-address" and "calibration" are defined, the effective mac address comes from the cell corresponding to "mac-address" and mac-address-increment. Test passed on my wndr3700v4 and wndr4500v3. Signed-off-by: Edward Chow <equu@openmail.cc>

Hardware highligts: - CPU: Atheros AR7240 SoC at 400 MHz - RAM: 64MB DDR2 - Flash: 16MB SPI-NOR - Wi-Fi: AR9285 built-in 2.4GHz 1x1 radio - Ethernet: single Fast Ethernet port inside the electrical enclosure, coupled with internal LSA connector for direct wiring, four external Fast Ethernet ports on the lower side of the device. - PoE: 802.3af PD input inside the electrical box. 802.3af PSE output on the LAN4 port, capable of sourcing class 0 or class 2 devices, depending on power supply capacity. - External 8P8C pass-through connectors on the back and right side of the device - Standalone 48V power input on the side, through 2/1mm micro DC barrel jack Serial console: 115200-8-N-1 on internal JP1 header. Pinout: ---------- JP1 |5|4|3|2|1| ---------- Pin 1 is near the "H1" marking. 1 - RX 2 - n/c 3 - VCC (3.3V) 4 - GND 5 - TX Installation: There are two methods of installation: - Using serial console [1] - requires some disassembly, 3.3V USB-Serial adapter, TFTP server, and removing a single T10 screw, but with much less manual steps, and is generally recommended, being safer. - Using stock firmware root shell exploit, SSH and TFTP [2]. Does not work on some rare versions of stock firmware. A more involved, and requires installing `mkenvimage` from u-boot-tools package if you choose to rebuild your own environment, but can be used without disassembly or removal from installation point, if you have the credentials. If for some reason, size of your sysupgrade image exceeds 13312kB, proceed with method [1]. For official images this is not likely to happen ever. [1] Using serial console: 0. Connect serial console to H1 header. Ensure the serial converter does not back-power the board, otherwise it will fail to boot. 1. Power-on the board. Then quickly connect serial converter to PC and hit Ctrl+C in the terminal to break boot sequence. If you're lucky, you'll enter U-boot shell. Then skip to point 3. Connection parameters are 115200-8-N-1. 2. Allow the board to boot. Press the reset button, so the board reboots into U-boot again and go back to point 1. 3. Set the "bootcmd" variable to disable the dual-boot feature of the system and ensure that uImage is loaded. This is critical step, and needs to be done only on initial installation. > setenv bootcmd "bootm 0x9f040000" > saveenv 4. Boot the OpenWrt initramfs using TFTP. Replace IP addresses as needed: > setenv serverip 192.168.1.2 > setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1 > tftpboot 0x81000000 openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7025-initramfs-kernel.bin > bootm 0x81000000 5. Optional, but highly recommended: back up contents of "firmware" partition: $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd1 > ruckus_zf7025_fw1_backup.bin 6. Copy over sysupgrade image, and perform actual installation. OpenWrt shall boot from flash afterwards: $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 # sysupgrade -n openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7025-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin [2] Using stock root shell: 0. Reset the device to factory defaullts. Power-on the device and after it boots, hold the reset button near Ethernet connectors for 5 seconds. 1. Connect the device to the network. It will acquire address over DHCP, so either find its address using list of DHCP leases by looking for label MAC address, or try finding it by scanning for SSH port: $ nmap 10.42.0.0/24 -p22 From now on, we assume your computer has address 10.42.0.1 and the device has address 10.42.0.254. 2. Set up a TFTP server on your computer. We assume that TFTP server root is at /srv/tftp. 3. Obtain root shell. Connect to the device over SSH. The SSHD ond the frmware is pretty ancient and requires enabling HMAC-MD5. $ ssh 10.42.0.254 \ -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null \ -o StrictHostKeyCheking=no \ -o MACs=hmac-md5 Login. User is "super", password is "sp-admin". Now execute a hidden command: Ruckus It is case-sensitive. Copy and paste the following string, including quotes. There will be no output on the console for that. ";/bin/sh;" Hit "enter". The AP will respond with: grrrr OK Now execute another hidden command: !v54! At "What's your chow?" prompt just hit "enter". Congratulations, you should now be dropped to Busybox shell with root permissions. 4. Optional, but highly recommended: backup the flash contents before installation. At your PC ensure the device can write the firmware over TFTP: $ sudo touch /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7025_firmware{1,2}.bin $ sudo chmod 666 /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7025_firmware{1,2}.bin Locate partitions for primary and secondary firmware image. NEVER blindly copy over MTD nodes, because MTD indices change depending on the currently active firmware, and all partitions are writable! # grep rcks_wlan /proc/mtd Copy over both images using TFTP, this will be useful in case you'd like to return to stock FW in future. Make sure to backup both, as OpenWrt uses bot firmwre partitions for storage! # tftp -l /dev/<rcks_wlan.main_mtd> -r ruckus_zf7025_firmware1.bin -p 10.42.0.1 # tftp -l /dev/<rcks_wlan.bkup_mtd> -r ruckus_zf7025_firmware2.bin -p 10.42.0.1 When the command finishes, copy over the dump to a safe place for storage. $ cp /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7025_firmware{1,2}.bin ~/ 5. Ensure the system is running from the BACKUP image, i.e. from rcks_wlan.bkup partition or "image 2". Otherwise the installation WILL fail, and you will need to access mtd0 device to write image which risks overwriting the bootloader, and so is not covered here and not supported. Switching to backup firmware can be achieved by executing a few consecutive reboots of the device, or by updating the stock firmware. The system will boot from the image it was not running from previously. Stock firmware available to update was conveniently dumped in point 4 :-) 6. Prepare U-boot environment image. Install u-boot-tools package. Alternatively, if you build your own images, OpenWrt provides mkenvimage in host staging directory as well. It is recommended to extract environment from the device, and modify it, rather then relying on defaults: $ sudo touch /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin $ sudo chmod 666 /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin On the device, find the MTD partition on which environment resides. Beware, it may change depending on currently active firmware image! # grep u-boot-env /proc/mtd Now, copy over the partition # tftp -l /dev/mtd<N> -r u-boot-env.bin -p 10.42.0.1 Store the stock environment in a safe place: $ cp /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin ~/ Extract the values from the dump: $ strings u-boot-env.bin | tee u-boot-env.txt Now clean up the debris at the end of output, you should end up with each variable defined once. After that, set the bootcmd variable like this: bootcmd=bootm 0x9f040000 You should end up with something like this: bootcmd=bootm 0x9f040000 bootargs=console=ttyS0,115200 rootfstype=squashfs init=/sbin/init baudrate=115200 ethaddr=0x00:0xaa:0xbb:0xcc:0xdd:0xee mtdparts=mtdparts=ar7100-nor0:256k(u-boot),7168k(rcks_wlan.main),7168k(rcks_wlan.bkup),1280k(datafs),256k(u-boot-env) mtdids=nor0=ar7100-nor0 bootdelay=2 filesize=52e000 fileaddr=81000000 ethact=eth0 stdin=serial stdout=serial stderr=serial partition=nor0,0 mtddevnum=0 mtddevname=u-boot ipaddr=192.168.0.1 serverip=192.168.0.2 stderr=serial ethact=eth0 These are the defaults, you can use most likely just this as input to mkenvimage. Now, create environment image and copy it over to TFTP root: $ mkenvimage -s 0x40000 -b -o u-boot-env.bin u-boot-env.txt $ sudo cp u-boot-env.bin /srv/tftp This is the same image, gzipped and base64-encoded: H4sICOLMEGMAA3UtYm9vdC1lbnYtbmV3LmJpbgDt0E1u00AUAGDfgm2XDUrTsUV/pTkFSxZoEk+o lcQJtlNaLsURwU4FikDiBN+3eDNvLL/3Zt5/+vFuud8Pq10dp3V3EV4e1uFDGBXTQeq+9HG1b/v9 NsdheP0Y5mV5U4Vw0Y1f1/3wesix/3pM/dO6v2jaZojX/bJpr6dtsUzHuktDjm//FHl4SnXdxfAS wmN4SWkMy+UYVqsx1PUYci52Q31I3dDHP5vU3ZUhXLX7LjxWN7eby+PVNNxsflfe3m8uu9Wm//xt m9rFLjXtv6fLzfEwm5fVfdhc1mlI6342Pytzldvn2dS1qfs49Tjvd3qFOm/Ta6yKdbPNffM9x5sq Ty805acL3Zfh5HTD1RDHJRT9WLGNfe6atJ2S/XE4y3LX/c6mSzZDs29P3edhmqXOz+1xF//s0y7H t3GL5nDqWT5Ui/Gii7Aoi7HQ81jrcHZY/dXkfLLiJwAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD8 xy8jb4zOAAAEAA== 7. Perform actual installation. Copy over OpenWrt sysupgrade image to TFTP root: $ sudo cp openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7025-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin /srv/tftp Now load both to the device over TFTP: # tftp -l /tmp/u-boot-env.bin -r u-boot-env.bin -g 10.42.0.1 # tftp -l /tmp/openwrt.bin -r openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7025-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin -g 10.42.0.1 Verify checksums of both images to ensure the transfer over TFTP was completed: # sha256sum /tmp/u-boot-env.bin /tmp/openwrt.bin And compare it against source images: $ sha256sum /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin /srv/tftp/openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7025-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin Locate MTD partition of the primary image: # grep rcks_wlan.main /proc/mtd Now, write the images in place. Write U-boot environment last, so unit still can boot from backup image, should power failure occur during this. Replace MTD placeholders with real MTD nodes: # flashcp /tmp/openwrt.bin /dev/<rcks_wlan.main_mtd> # flashcp /tmp/u-boot-env.bin /dev/<u-boot-env_mtd> Finally, reboot the device. The device should directly boot into OpenWrt. Look for the characteristic power LED blinking pattern. # reboot -f After unit boots, it should be available at the usual 192.168.1.1/24. Return to factory firmware: 1. Boot into OpenWrt initramfs as for initial installation. To do that without disassembly, you can write an initramfs image to the device using 'sysupgrade -F' first. 2. Unset the "bootcmd" variable: fw_setenv bootcmd "" 3. Concatenate the firmware backups, if you took them during installation using method 2: $ cat ruckus_zf7025_fw1_backup.bin ruckus_zf7025_fw2_backup.bin > ruckus_zf7025_backup.bin 3. Write factory images downloaded from manufacturer website into fwconcat0 and fwconcat1 MTD partitions, or restore backup you took before installation: # mtd write ruckus_zf7025_backup.bin /dev/mtd1 4. Reboot the system, it should load into factory firmware again. Quirks and known issues: - Flash layout is changed from the factory, to use both firmware image partitions for storage using mtd-concat, and uImage format is used to actually boot the system, which rules out the dual-boot capability. - The 2.4 GHz radio has its own EEPROM on board, not connected to CPU. - The stock firmware has dual-boot capability, which is not supported in OpenWrt by choice. It is controlled by data in the top 64kB of RAM which is unmapped, to avoid the interference in the boot process and accidental switch to the inactive image, although boot script presence in form of "bootcmd" variable should prevent this entirely. - On some versions of stock firmware, it is possible to obtain root shell, however not much is available in terms of debugging facitilies. 1. Login to the rkscli 2. Execute hidden command "Ruckus" 3. Copy and paste ";/bin/sh;" including quotes. This is required only once, the payload will be stored in writable filesystem. 4. Execute hidden command "!v54!". Press Enter leaving empty reply for "What's your chow?" prompt. 5. Busybox shell shall open.

(That is why the "auto_recovery" above should be disabled before installing OpenWRT.) If someone is interested in generating factory firmware image capable to flash from stock firmware, as well as restoring the dual firmware layout, commented-out layout for the original secondary partitions left in the device tree may be a useful hint. Installation from Web Interface ------------ 1. Login to the router via its web interface (default password: admin) 2. Find the firmware update interface under "Connectivity/Basic" 3. Choose the OpenWrt factory image and click "Start" 4. If the router still boots into the stock firmware, it means that the OpenWrt factory image has been installed to the secondary partitions and failed to boot (since OpenWrt on EA4500 v3 does not support dual boot yet), and the router switched back to the stock firmware on the primary partitions. You have to install a stock firmware (e.g. 3.1.6.172023, downloadable from https://www.linksys.com/support-article?articleNum=148385 ) first (to the secondary partitions) , and after that, install OpenWrt factory image (to the primary partitions).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | OpenWRT's developer guide prefers having actual patches so they an be sent upstream more easily. However, in this case, Adding proper fields also allows for `git am` to properly function. Some of these patches are quite old, and lack much traceable history. This commit tries to rectify that, by digging in the history to find where and how it was first added. It is by no means perfect and also shows some patches that should have been long gone.

(not tested) **OEM upgrade info:** The OEM upgrade script is at /etc/fwupgrade.sh OKLI kernel loader is required because the OEM software expects the kernel to be no greater than 1536k and the factory.bin upgrade procedure would otherwise overwrite part of the kernel when writing rootfs. **Note on eth0 PLL-data:** The default Ethernet Configuration register values will not work because of the external AR8035 switch between the SOC and the ethernet port. For QCA955x series, the PLL registers for eth0 and eth1 can be see in the DTSI as 0x28 and 0x48 respectively. Therefore the PLL registers can be read from uboot for each link speed after attempting tftpboot or another network action using that link speed with `md 0x18050028 1` and `md 0x18050048 1`. The clock delay required for RGMII can be applied at the PHY side, using the at803x driver `phy-mode`. Therefore the PLL registers for GMAC0 do not need the bits for delay on the MAC side. This is possible due to fixes in at803x driver since Linux 5.1 and 5.3 **Note on WatchGuard Magic string:** The OEM upgrade script is a modified version of the generic Senao sysupgrade script which is used on EnGenius devices. On WatchGuard boards produced by Senao, images are verified using a md5sum checksum of the upgrade image concatenated with a magic string. this checksum is then appended to the end of the final image. This variable does not apply to all the senao devices so set to null string as default Tested-by: Alessandro Kornowski <ak@wski.org> Tested-by: John Wagner <john@wagner.us.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Pratt <mcpratt@pm.me>

| | | | | | | | | | | | Other vendors can use this DTSI, for example, WatchGuard there are likely several brands that use the same board design because of outsourcing hardware from Senao. For example, Watchguard AP300 has the same hardware as Engenius EAP600 so we use ar9344_engenius_exx600.dtsi for that Signed-off-by: Michael Pratt <mcpratt@pm.me>

It is very similar to its bigger brother, ZoneFlex 7372. Hardware highligts: - CPU: Atheros AR9342 SoC at 533 MHz - RAM: 64MB DDR2 - Flash: 32MB SPI-NOR - Wi-Fi: AR9342 built-in dual-band 2x2 MIMO radio - Ethernet: single Gigabit Ethernet port through AR8035 gigabit PHY - PoE: input through Gigabit port - Standalone 12V/1A power input - USB: optional single USB 2.0 host port on the 7321-U variant. Serial console: 115200-8-N-1 on internal H1 header. Pinout: H1 ---------- |1|x3|4|5| ---------- Pin 1 is near the "H1" marking. 1 - RX x - no pin 3 - VCC (3.3V) 4 - GND 5 - TX JTAG: Connector H5, unpopulated, similar to MIPS eJTAG, standard, but without the key in pin 12 and not every pin routed: ------- H5 |1 |2 | ------- |3 |4 | ------- |5 |6 | ------- |7 |8 | ------- |9 |10| ------- |11|12| ------- |13|14| ------- 3 - TDI 5 - TDO 7 - TMS 9 - TCK 2,4,6,8,10 - GND 14 - Vref 1,11,12,13 - Not connected Installation: There are two methods of installation: - Using serial console [1] - requires some disassembly, 3.3V USB-Serial adapter, TFTP server, and removing a single T10 screw, but with much less manual steps, and is generally recommended, being safer. - Using stock firmware root shell exploit, SSH and TFTP [2]. Does not work on some rare versions of stock firmware. A more involved, and requires installing `mkenvimage` from u-boot-tools package if you choose to rebuild your own environment, but can be used without disassembly or removal from installation point, if you have the credentials. If for some reason, size of your sysupgrade image exceeds 13312kB, proceed with method [1]. For official images this is not likely to happen ever. [1] Using serial console: 0. Connect serial console to H1 header. Ensure the serial converter does not back-power the board, otherwise it will fail to boot. 1. Power-on the board. Then quickly connect serial converter to PC and hit Ctrl+C in the terminal to break boot sequence. If you're lucky, you'll enter U-boot shell. Then skip to point 3. Connection parameters are 115200-8-N-1. 2. Allow the board to boot. Press the reset button, so the board reboots into U-boot again and go back to point 1. 3. Set the "bootcmd" variable to disable the dual-boot feature of the system and ensure that uImage is loaded. This is critical step, and needs to be done only on initial installation. > setenv bootcmd "bootm 0x9f040000" > saveenv 4. Boot the OpenWrt initramfs using TFTP. Replace IP addresses as needed: > setenv serverip 192.168.1.2 > setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1 > tftpboot 0x81000000 openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7321-initramfs-kernel.bin > bootm 0x81000000 5. Optional, but highly recommended: back up contents of "firmware" partition: $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd1 > ruckus_zf7321_fw1_backup.bin $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd5 > ruckus_zf7321_fw2_backup.bin 6. Copy over sysupgrade image, and perform actual installation. OpenWrt shall boot from flash afterwards: $ ssh root@192.168.1.1 # sysupgrade -n openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7321-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin [2] Using stock root shell: 0. Reset the device to factory defaullts. Power-on the device and after it boots, hold the reset button near Ethernet connectors for 5 seconds. 1. Connect the device to the network. It will acquire address over DHCP, so either find its address using list of DHCP leases by looking for label MAC address, or try finding it by scanning for SSH port: $ nmap 10.42.0.0/24 -p22 From now on, we assume your computer has address 10.42.0.1 and the device has address 10.42.0.254. 2. Set up a TFTP server on your computer. We assume that TFTP server root is at /srv/tftp. 3. Obtain root shell. Connect to the device over SSH. The SSHD ond the frmware is pretty ancient and requires enabling HMAC-MD5. $ ssh 10.42.0.254 \ -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null \ -o StrictHostKeyCheking=no \ -o MACs=hmac-md5 Login. User is "super", password is "sp-admin". Now execute a hidden command: Ruckus It is case-sensitive. Copy and paste the following string, including quotes. There will be no output on the console for that. ";/bin/sh;" Hit "enter". The AP will respond with: grrrr OK Now execute another hidden command: !v54! At "What's your chow?" prompt just hit "enter". Congratulations, you should now be dropped to Busybox shell with root permissions. 4. Optional, but highly recommended: backup the flash contents before installation. At your PC ensure the device can write the firmware over TFTP: $ sudo touch /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7321_firmware{1,2}.bin $ sudo chmod 666 /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7321_firmware{1,2}.bin Locate partitions for primary and secondary firmware image. NEVER blindly copy over MTD nodes, because MTD indices change depending on the currently active firmware, and all partitions are writable! # grep rcks_wlan /proc/mtd Copy over both images using TFTP, this will be useful in case you'd like to return to stock FW in future. Make sure to backup both, as OpenWrt uses bot firmwre partitions for storage! # tftp -l /dev/<rcks_wlan.main_mtd> -r ruckus_zf7321_firmware1.bin -p 10.42.0.1 # tftp -l /dev/<rcks_wlan.bkup_mtd> -r ruckus_zf7321_firmware2.bin -p 10.42.0.1 When the command finishes, copy over the dump to a safe place for storage. $ cp /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7321_firmware{1,2}.bin ~/ 5. Ensure the system is running from the BACKUP image, i.e. from rcks_wlan.bkup partition or "image 2". Otherwise the installation WILL fail, and you will need to access mtd0 device to write image which risks overwriting the bootloader, and so is not covered here and not supported. Switching to backup firmware can be achieved by executing a few consecutive reboots of the device, or by updating the stock firmware. The system will boot from the image it was not running from previously. Stock firmware available to update was conveniently dumped in point 4 :-) 6. Prepare U-boot environment image. Install u-boot-tools package. Alternatively, if you build your own images, OpenWrt provides mkenvimage in host staging directory as well. It is recommended to extract environment from the device, and modify it, rather then relying on defaults: $ sudo touch /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin $ sudo chmod 666 /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin On the device, find the MTD partition on which environment resides. Beware, it may change depending on currently active firmware image! # grep u-boot-env /proc/mtd Now, copy over the partition # tftp -l /dev/mtd<N> -r u-boot-env.bin -p 10.42.0.1 Store the stock environment in a safe place: $ cp /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin ~/ Extract the values from the dump: $ strings u-boot-env.bin | tee u-boot-env.txt Now clean up the debris at the end of output, you should end up with each variable defined once. After that, set the bootcmd variable like this: bootcmd=bootm 0x9f040000 You should end up with something like this: bootcmd=bootm 0x9f040000 bootargs=console=ttyS0,115200 rootfstype=squashfs init=/sbin/init baudrate=115200 ethaddr=0x00:0xaa:0xbb:0xcc:0xdd:0xee mtdparts=mtdparts=ar7100-nor0:256k(u-boot),13312k(rcks_wlan.main),2048k(datafs),256k(u-boot-env),512k(Board Data),13312k(rcks_wlan.bkup) mtdids=nor0=ar7100-nor0 bootdelay=2 ethact=eth0 filesize=78a000 fileaddr=81000000 partition=nor0,0 mtddevnum=0 mtddevname=u-boot ipaddr=10.0.0.1 serverip=10.0.0.5 stdin=serial stdout=serial stderr=serial These are the defaults, you can use most likely just this as input to mkenvimage. Now, create environment image and copy it over to TFTP root: $ mkenvimage -s 0x40000 -b -o u-boot-env.bin u-boot-env.txt $ sudo cp u-boot-env.bin /srv/tftp This is the same image, gzipped and base64-encoded: H4sIAAAAAAAAA+3QQW7TQBQAUF8EKRtQI6XtJDS0VJoN4gYcAE3iCbWS2MF2Sss1ORDYqVq6YMEB3rP0 Z/7Yf+aP3/56827VNP16X8Zx3E/Cw8dNuAqDYlxI7bcurpu6a3Y59v3jlzCbz5eLECbt8HbT9Y+HHLvv x9TdbbpJVVd9vOxWVX05TotVOpZt6nN8qilyf5fKso3hIYTb8JDSEFarIazXQyjLIeRc7PvykNq+iy+T 1F7PQzivmzbcLpYftmfH87G56Wz+/v18sT1r19vu649dqi/2qaqns0W4utmelalPm27I/lac5/p+OluO NZ+a1JaTz8M3/9hmtT0epmMjVdnF8djXLZx+TJl36TEuTlda93EYQrGpdrmrfuZ4fZPGHzjmp/vezMNJ MV6n6qumPm06C+MRZb6vj/v4Mk/7HJ+6LarDqXweLsZnXnS5vc9tdXheWRbd0GIdh/Uq7cakOfavsty2 z1nxGwAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD+1x9eTkHLAAAEAA== 7. Perform actual installation. Copy over OpenWrt sysupgrade image to TFTP root: $ sudo cp openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7321-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin /srv/tftp Now load both to the device over TFTP: # tftp -l /tmp/u-boot-env.bin -r u-boot-env.bin -g 10.42.0.1 # tftp -l /tmp/openwrt.bin -r openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7321-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin -g 10.42.0.1 Vverify checksums of both images to ensure the transfer over TFTP was completed: # sha256sum /tmp/u-boot-env.bin /tmp/openwrt.bin And compare it against source images: $ sha256sum /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin /srv/tftp/openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7321-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin Locate MTD partition of the primary image: # grep rcks_wlan.main /proc/mtd Now, write the images in place. Write U-boot environment last, so unit still can boot from backup image, should power failure occur during this. Replace MTD placeholders with real MTD nodes: # flashcp /tmp/openwrt.bin /dev/<rcks_wlan.main_mtd> # flashcp /tmp/u-boot-env.bin /dev/<u-boot-env_mtd> Finally, reboot the device. The device should directly boot into OpenWrt. Look for the characteristic power LED blinking pattern. # reboot -f After unit boots, it should be available at the usual 192.168.1.1/24. Return to factory firmware: 1. Boot into OpenWrt initramfs as for initial installation. To do that without disassembly, you can write an initramfs image to the device using 'sysupgrade -F' first. 2. Unset the "bootcmd" variable: fw_setenv bootcmd "" 3. Write factory images downloaded from manufacturer website into fwconcat0 and fwconcat1 MTD partitions, or restore backup you took before installation: mtd write ruckus_zf7321_fw1_backup.bin /dev/mtd1 mtd write ruckus_zf7321_fw2_backup.bin /dev/mtd5 4. Reboot the system, it should load into factory firmware again. Quirks and known issues: - Flash layout is changed from the factory, to use both firmware image partitions for storage using mtd-concat, and uImage format is used to actually boot the system, which rules out the dual-boot capability. - The 5GHz radio has its own EEPROM on board, not connected to CPU. - The stock firmware has dual-boot capability, which is not supported in OpenWrt by choice. It is controlled by data in the top 64kB of RAM which is unmapped, to avoid the interference in the boot process and accidental switch to the inactive image, although boot script presence in form of "bootcmd" variable should prevent this entirely. - U-boot disables JTAG when starting. To re-enable it, you need to execute the following command before booting: mw.l 1804006c 40 And also you need to disable the reset button in device tree if you intend to debug Linux, because reset button on GPIO0 shares the TCK pin. - On some versions of stock firmware, it is possible to obtain root shell, however not much is available in terms of debugging facitilies. 1. Login to the rkscli 2. Execute hidden command "Ruckus" 3. Copy and paste ";/bin/sh;" including quotes. This is required only once, the payload will be stored in writable filesystem. 4. Execute hidden command "!v54!". Press Enter leaving empty reply for "What's your chow?" prompt. 5. Busybox shell shall open.

Make sure to backup both, as OpenWrt uses bot firmwre partitions for storage! # tftp -l /dev/<rcks_wlan.main_mtd> -r ruckus_zf7372_firmware1.bin -p 10.42.0.1 # tftp -l /dev/<rcks_wlan.bkup_mtd> -r ruckus_zf7372_firmware2.bin -p 10.42.0.1 When the command finishes, copy over the dump to a safe place for storage. $ cp /srv/tftp/ruckus_zf7372_firmware{1,2}.bin ~/ 5. Ensure the system is running from the BACKUP image, i.e. from rcks_wlan.bkup partition or "image 2". Otherwise the installation WILL fail, and you will need to access mtd0 device to write image which risks overwriting the bootloader, and so is not covered here and not supported. Switching to backup firmware can be achieved by executing a few consecutive reboots of the device, or by updating the stock firmware. The system will boot from the image it was not running from previously. Stock firmware available to update was conveniently dumped in point 4 :-) 6. Prepare U-boot environment image. Install u-boot-tools package. Alternatively, if you build your own images, OpenWrt provides mkenvimage in host staging directory as well. It is recommended to extract environment from the device, and modify it, rather then relying on defaults: $ sudo touch /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin $ sudo chmod 666 /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin On the device, find the MTD partition on which environment resides. Beware, it may change depending on currently active firmware image! # grep u-boot-env /proc/mtd Now, copy over the partition # tftp -l /dev/mtd<N> -r u-boot-env.bin -p 10.42.0.1 Store the stock environment in a safe place: $ cp /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin ~/ Extract the values from the dump: $ strings u-boot-env.bin | tee u-boot-env.txt Now clean up the debris at the end of output, you should end up with each variable defined once. After that, set the bootcmd variable like this: bootcmd=bootm 0x9f040000 You should end up with something like this: bootcmd=bootm 0x9f040000 bootargs=console=ttyS0,115200 rootfstype=squashfs init=/sbin/init baudrate=115200 ethaddr=0x00:0xaa:0xbb:0xcc:0xdd:0xee bootdelay=2 mtdids=nor0=ar7100-nor0 mtdparts=mtdparts=ar7100-nor0:256k(u-boot),13312k(rcks_wlan.main),2048k(datafs),256k(u-boot-env),512k(Board Data),13312k(rcks_wlan.bkup) ethact=eth0 filesize=1000000 fileaddr=81000000 ipaddr=192.168.0.7 serverip=192.168.0.51 partition=nor0,0 mtddevnum=0 mtddevname=u-boot stdin=serial stdout=serial stderr=serial These are the defaults, you can use most likely just this as input to mkenvimage. Now, create environment image and copy it over to TFTP root: $ mkenvimage -s 0x40000 -b -o u-boot-env.bin u-boot-env.txt $ sudo cp u-boot-env.bin /srv/tftp This is the same image, gzipped and base64-encoded: H4sIAAAAAAAAA+3QTW7TQBQAYB+AQ2TZSGk6Tpv+SbNBrNhyADSJHWolsYPtlJaDcAWOCXaqQhdIXOD7 Fm/ee+MZ+/nHu58fV03Tr/dFHNf9JDzdbcJVGGRjI7Vfurhu6q7ZlbHvnz+FWZ4vFyFM2mF30/XPhzJ2 X4+pe9h0k6qu+njRrar6YkyzVToWberL+HImK/uHVBRtDE8h3IenlIawWg1hvR5CUQyhLE/vLcpdeo6L bN8XVdHFumlDTO1NHsL5mI/9Q2r7Lv5J3uzeL5bX27Pj+XjRdJZfXuaL7Vm73nafv+1SPd+nqp7OFuHq dntWpD5tuqH6e+K8rB+ns+V45n2T2mLyYXjmH9estsfD9DTSuo/DErJNtSu76vswbjg5NU4D3752qsOp zu8W8/z6dh7mN1lXto9lWx3eNJd5Ng5V9VVTn2afnSYuysf6uI9/8rQv48s3Z93wn+o4XFWl3Vg0x/5N Vbbta5X9AgAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAID/+Q2Z/B7cAAAEAA== 7. Perform actual installation. Copy over OpenWrt sysupgrade image to TFTP root: $ sudo cp openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7372-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin /srv/tftp Now load both to the device over TFTP: # tftp -l /tmp/u-boot-env.bin -r u-boot-env.bin -g 10.42.0.1 # tftp -l /tmp/openwrt.bin -r openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7372-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin -g 10.42.0.1 Verify checksums of both images to ensure the transfer over TFTP was completed: # sha256sum /tmp/u-boot-env.bin /tmp/openwrt.bin And compare it against source images: $ sha256sum /srv/tftp/u-boot-env.bin /srv/tftp/openwrt-ath79-generic-ruckus_zf7372-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin Locate MTD partition of the primary image: # grep rcks_wlan.main /proc/mtd Now, write the images in place. Write U-boot environment last, so unit still can boot from backup image, should power failure occur during this. Replace MTD placeholders with real MTD nodes: # flashcp /tmp/openwrt.bin /dev/<rcks_wlan.main_mtd> # flashcp /tmp/u-boot-env.bin /dev/<u-boot-env_mtd> Finally, reboot the device. The device should directly boot into OpenWrt. Look for the characteristic power LED blinking pattern. # reboot -f After unit boots, it should be available at the usual 192.168.1.1/24. Return to factory firmware: 1. Boot into OpenWrt initramfs as for initial installation. To do that without disassembly, you can write an initramfs image to the device using 'sysupgrade -F' first. 2. Unset the "bootcmd" variable: fw_setenv bootcmd "" 3. Write factory images downloaded from manufacturer website into fwconcat0 and fwconcat1 MTD partitions, or restore backup you took before installation: mtd write ruckus_zf7372_fw1_backup.bin /dev/mtd1 mtd write ruckus_zf7372_fw2_backup.bin /dev/mtd5 4. Reboot the system, it should load into factory firmware again. Quirks and known issues: - This is first device in ath79 target to support link state reporting on FE port attached trough the built-in switch. - Flash layout is changed from the factory, to use both firmware image partitions for storage using mtd-concat, and uImage format is used to actually boot the system, which rules out the dual-boot capability. The 5GHz radio has its own EEPROM on board, not connected to CPU. - The stock firmware has dual-boot capability, which is not supported in OpenWrt by choice. It is controlled by data in the top 64kB of RAM which is unmapped, to avoid the interference in the boot process and accidental switch to the inactive image, although boot script presence in form of "bootcmd" variable should prevent this entirely. - U-boot disables JTAG when starting. To re-enable it, you need to execute the following command before booting: mw.l 1804006c 40 And also you need to disable the reset button in device tree if you intend to debug Linux, because reset button on GPIO0 shares the TCK pin. - On some versions of stock firmware, it is possible to obtain root shell, however not much is available in terms of debugging facitilies. 1. Login to the rkscli 2. Execute hidden command "Ruckus" 3. Copy and paste ";/bin/sh;" including quotes. This is required only once, the payload will be stored in writable filesystem. 4. Execute hidden command "!v54!". Press Enter leaving empty reply for "What's your chow?" prompt. 5. Busybox shell shall open. Source: https://alephsecurity.com/vulns/aleph-2019014 - Stock firmware has beamforming functionality, known as BeamFlex, using active multi-segment antennas on both bands - controlled by RF analog switches, driven by a pair of 74LV164 shift registers. Shift registers used for each radio are connected to GPIO14 (clock) and GPIO15 of the respective chip. They are mapped as generic GPIOs in OpenWrt - in stock firmware, they were most likely handled directly by radio firmware, given the real-time nature of their control. Lack of this support in OpenWrt causes the antennas to behave as ordinary omnidirectional antennas, and does not affect throughput in normal conditions, but GPIOs are available to tinker with nonetheless.

* ath79: mikrotik: use OpenWrt loader for initram imageJohn Thomson2022-09-111-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Return to using the OpenWrt kernel loader to decompress and load kernel initram image. Continue to use the vmlinuz kernel for squashfs. Mikrotik's bootloader RouterBOOT on some ath79 devices is failing to boot the current initram, due to the size of the initram image. On the ath79 wAP-ac: a 5.7MiB initram image would fail to boot After this change: a 6.6MiB initram image successfully loads This partially reverts commit e91344776b9ba7c864be88d915c9c0df0eb790dd. An alternative of using RouterBOOT's capability of loading an initrd ELF section was investigated, but the OpenWrt kernel loader allows larger image.
