* firmware-utils: tplink-safeloader: add dynamic partitionsAlex Maclean2018-06-261-13/+58
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support to dynamically split the firmware partition into os-image and file-system partitions. This is done by replacing those entries in the partition table with a single unified firmware partition, which is then split according to actual kernel image size. The factory image will have the file-system partition aligned to a 64K erase block, but the sysupgrade image skips this and aligns only the JFFS2 EOF marker to squeeze out more space. This should prevent further creeping updates to the kernel partition size while maximizing space for the overlay filesystem on smaller devices. Signed-off-by: Alex Maclean <monkeh@monkeh.net>

This is due to messed up bootstrap resistor configuration on the PCB. Provided GPL code just forces 25MHz reference clock. That causes booting with completely wrong clocks, for example, CPU tries to boot at 1040MHz while the stock is 650MHz. So this PR depends on PR #672 to remove 40MHz reference clock.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The default image does not fit 2 MB anymore, expand os-image partition to 4 MB. Upgrading works transparently via sysupgrade in both directions. Another option would have been to merge "os-image" and "rootfs" into a single "firmware" partition using MTD_SPLIT_TPLINK_FW, but just changing the sizes of the existing partitioning has been deemed safer and actually tested on an affected device; the maximum for rootfs changes from 27 MB to 25 MB.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mktplinkfw/mktplinkfw2 utilities put JFFS2 EOF market only at 64KB boundary, this could lead to current device configuration lost during the sysupgrade on a device, which is equpped with flash with the 4KB erase block size (e.g. TP-Link Archer C20). This happens when 64KB and 4KB alignments do not match, so the JFFS2 data is written not exactly at the partition beginnig and startup scripts can not find the JFFS2 during the first boot just after the sysupgrade. Fix this by placing additional JFFS2 EOF marker at a 4KB boundary. Also keep the marker at 64KB intact, so the utilities will produce images suitable for devices with both 4KB and 64KB erase blocks.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TP-Link TL-WR840N v5 is simple N300 router with 5-port FE switch and non-detachable antennas, based on MediaTek MT7628NN (aka MT7628N) WiSoC. Specification: - MT7628N/N (580 MHz) - 64 MB of RAM (DDR2) - 4 MB of FLASH - 2T2R 2.4 GHz - 5x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet - 2x external, non-detachable antennas - UART (J1) header on PCB (115200 8n1) - 1x LED (GPIO-controlled), 1x button * LED in TL-WR840N v5 is a dual-color, dual-leads type which isn't (fully) supported by gpio-leds driver. This type of LED requires both GPIOs state change at the same time to select color or turn it off. For now, we support/use only the green part of the LED. Orange LED is registered so you can later use it for your own purposes. Flash instruction: Unlike TL-WR840N v4 flashing through WEB UI works in v5. 1. Download lede-ramips-mt76x8-tl-wr840n-v5-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin image. 2. Go to 192.168.0.1 3. Flash the sysupgrade image through Firmware upgrade section of WEB UI. 4. Wait until green LED stops flashing and use the router. Notes: TFTP recovery is broken since TP-Link reused bootloader code for v4 and that does not take into account only 4 MB of flash and bricks the device. So do not use TFTP Recovery or you will have to rewrite SPI flash. They fixed it in later GPL code,but it is unknown which version of bootloader you have. After manually compiling and flashing bootloader from GPL sources TFTP recovery works properly. Signed-off-by: Robert Marko <robimarko@gmail.com>
* tools/firmware-utils: mktplinkfw* fix rootfs offsetThibaut VARÈNE2017-11-083-12/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With '-a' specified on the command line, the current code: - computes an aligned _kernel length_ instead of an aligned _rootfs offset_. - does not update the rootfs offset after computing the new kernel length, and instead retains the layout default. When the kernel length exceeds the available space left with this fixed offset, the resulting image header contains invalid data, with the recorded rootfs offset overlapping the kernel area. This patch ensures that rootfs offset is correctly computed and reflected in the final image. Furthermore, the build_fw() function special cases the rootfs_align option because of the above invalid logic. This is also fixed and the computed (or command-line provided, or layout-provided) rootfs_ofs value is used in all cases. There seems to be no valid reason to extend the kernel length beyond the actual length of the kernel itself (OFW images don't do it) so this part of the existing behavior is dropped. Example image before the patch: Kernel data offset : 0x00000200 / 512 bytes Kernel data length : 0x00158438 / 1410104 bytes Kernel load address : 0x00000080 Kernel entry point : 0x00000080 Rootfs data offset : 0x00140000 / 1310720 bytes Rootfs data length : 0x001e4f7e / 1986430 bytes Example image after the patch: Kernel data offset : 0x00000200 / 512 bytes Kernel data length : 0x001583fe / 1410046 bytes Kernel load address : 0x00000080 Kernel entry point : 0x00000080 Rootfs data offset : 0x00158600 / 1410560 bytes Rootfs data length : 0x001e4e22 / 1986082 bytes Tested-by: Mathias Kresin <dev@kresin.me> Tested-by: Stefan Lippers-Hollmann <s.l-h@gmx.de> Tested-by: Daniel Engberg <daniel.engberg.lists@pyret.net> Tested-by: Henryk Heisig <hyniu@o2.pl> Signed-off-by: Thibaut VARÈNE <hacks@slashdirt.org>

* ramips: add support for TP-Link Archer C20 v1Maxim Anisimov2017-09-131-0/+8

It's very similiar to TP-Link Archer C50. Also it's based on MediaTek MT7620A+MT7610EN. Specification: - MediaTek MT7620A (580 Mhz) - 64 MB of RAM - 8 MB of FLASH - 2T2R 2.4 GHz and 1T1R 5 GHz - 5x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet - 2x external, non-detachable antennas - UART (J1) header on PCB (115200 8n1) - 8x LED (GPIO-controlled*), 2x button, power input switch - 1 x USB 2.0 port * WAN LED in this devices is a dual-color, dual-leads type which isn't (fully) supported by gpio-leds driver. This type of LED requires both GPIOs state change at the same time to select color or turn it off. For now, we support/use only the blue part of the LED. * MT7610EN ac chip isn't not supported by LEDE. Therefore 5Ghz won't work. Factory image notes: These devices use version 3 of TP-Link header, fortunately without RSA signature (at least in case of devices sold in Europe). The difference lays in the requirement for a non-zero value in "Additional Hardware Version" field. Ideally, it should match the value stored in vendor firmware header on device. We are able to prepare factory firwmare file which is accepted and (almost) correctly flashed from the vendor GUI. As it turned out, it accepts files without U-Boot image with second header at the beginning but due to some kind of bug in upgrade routine, flashed image gets corrupted before it's written to flash. So, to flash this device we must to prepare image using original firmware from tp-link site with uboot. Flash instruction: Until (if at all) TP-Link fixes described problem, the only way to flash LEDE image in these devices is to use tftp recovery mode in U-Boot. There are two ways to flash the device to LEDE: 1) Using tftp mode with UART connection and original LEDE image - Place lede-ramips-mt7620-ArcherC20-squashfs-factory.bin in tftp server directory - Configure PC with static IP 192.168.0.66/24 and tftp server. - Connect PC with one of LAN ports, power up the router and press key "4" to access U-Boot CLI. - Use the following commands to update the device to LEDE: setenv serverip 192.168.0.66 tftp 0x80060000 lede-ramips-mt7620-ArcherC20-squashfs-factory.bin erase tplink 0x20000 0x7a0000 cp.b 0x80060000 0x20000 0x7a0000 reset - After that the device will reboot and boot to LEDE 2) Using tftp mode without UART connection but require some manipulations with target image - Download and unpack TP-Link Archer C20 v1 firmware from original web site - Split uboot.bin from original firmware by this command (example): dd if=Archer_C20v1_0.9.1_4.0_up_boot(160427)_2016-04-27_13.53.59.bin of=uboot.bin bs=512 count=256 skip=1 - Create ArcherC20V1_tp_recovery.bin using this command: cat uboot.bin lede-ramips-mt7620-ArcherC20-squashfs-factory.bin > ArcherC20V1_tp_recovery.bin - Place ArcherC20V1_tp_recovery.bin in tftp server directory. - Configure PC with static IP 192.168.0.66/24 and tftp server. - 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. - Router will download file from server, write it to flash and reboot.

* firmware-utils: mktplinkfw: rework combined image optionPiotr Dymacz2017-07-221-58/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We use combined option in "mktplinkfw" tool for generating initramfs kernel images and header for kernel inside "safeloader" image type (in fact, only for TL-WR1043ND v4 at this moment). There is also "mktplinkfw-kernel" tool, a stripped-down version, used only for generating "simple" header, for safeloader image types. This changes how "mktplinkfw" handles combined images (which then will allow us to drop the stripped-down version of the tool): - drop "ignore size" command line option (it was used only for combined images anyway) - don't require "flash layout id" for combined images (we don't need and shouldn't limit size of the initramfs kernel and for kernels inside safeloader images, the "tplink-safeloader" tool does the size check) - require kernel address and entry point in command line parameters for combined images (consequence of previous point) - don't include md5 sum and firmware length values in header (they are needed only for update from vendor GUI and are ingored in case of initramfs and "tplink-safeloader" images) - drop "fake" flash layout for TL-WR1043ND v4 as it's no longer needed Also, adjust "mktplinkfw-combined" command in ar71xx/image/tp-link.mk to match introduced changes in "mktplinkfw" tool.
