mediatek: add Linksys E8450 support The Linksys E8450, also known as Belkin RT3200, is a dual-band IEEE 802.11bgn/ac/ax router based on MediaTek MT7622BV and MediaTek MT7915AN chips. FCC: K7S-03571 and K7S-03572 Hardware highlights: - CPU: MediaTek MT7622BV (2x ARM Cortex-A53 @ 1350 MHz max.) - RAM: 512MB DDR3 - Flash: 128MB SPI-NAND (2k+64) - Ethernet: MT7531BE switch with 5 1000Base-T ports CPU port connected with 2500Base-X - WiFi 2.4 GHz: 802.11bgn 4T4R built-in antennas MT7622VB built-in - WiFi 5 GHz: 802.11ac/ax 4T4R built-in antennas MT7915AN chip on-board via PCIe MT7975AN front-end - Buttons: Reset and WPS - LEDS: 3 user controllable LEDs, 4 wired to switch - USB: USB2.0, single port - no Bluetooth (supported by SoC, not wired on board) - Serial: JST PH 2.0MM 6 Pin connector inside device ----_____________---- [ GND RX - TX - - ] --------------------- - JTAG: unpopulated ARM JTAG 20-pin connector (works) This commit adds support for the device in a way that is compatible with the vendor firmware's bootloader and dual-boot flash layout, the resulting image can directly be flashed using the vendor firmware.

mediatek: add alternative UBI NAND layout for Linksys E8450 The vendor flash layout of the Linksys E8450 is problematic as it uses the SPI-NAND chip without any wear-leveling while at the same time wasting a lot of space for padding. Use an all-UBI layout instead, storing the kernel+dtb+squashfs in uImage.FIT standard format in UBI volume 'fit', the read-write overlay in UBI volume 'rootfs_data' as well as reduntant U-Boot environments 'ubootenv' and 'ubootenv2', and a 'recovery' kernel+dtb+initramfs uImage.FIT for dual-boot. ** WARNING ** THIS PROCEDURE CAN EASILY BRICK YOUR DEVICE PERMANENTLY IF NOT CARRIED OUT VERY CAREFULLY AND EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED! Step 0 * Configure your PC to have the static IPv4 address 192.168.1.254/24 * Provide bin/targets/mediatek/mt7622 via TFTP Now continue EITHER with step 1A or 1B, depending on your preference (and on having serial console wired up or not). Step 1A (Using the vendor web interface (or non-UBI OpenWrt install)) In order to update to the new bootloader and UBI-based firmware, use the web browser of your choice to open the routers web-interface accessible on http://192.168.1.1 * Navigate to 'Configuration' -> 'Administration' -> 'Firmware Upgrade' * Upload the file openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-initramfs-recovery.itb and proceed with the upgrade. * Once OpenWrt comes up, use SCP to upload the new bootloader files to /tmp on the router: *-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-preloader.bin *-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-bl31-uboot.fip * Connect via SSH as you will now need to replace the bootloader in the Flash. ssh root@192.168.1.1 (the usual warnings) * First of all, backup all the flash now: for mtd in /dev/mtdblock*; do dd if=$mtd of=/tmp/$(basename $mtd); done * Then use SCP to copy /tmp/mtdblock* from the router and keep them safe. You will need them should you ever want to return to the factory firmware! * Now flow the uploaded files: mtd -e /dev/mtd0 write /tmp/*linksys_e8450-ubi-preloader.bin /dev/mtd0 mtd -e /dev/mtd1 write /tmp/*linksys_e8450-ubi-bl31-uboot.fip /dev/mtd1 If and only if both writes look like the completed successfully reboot the router. Now continue with step 2. Step 1B (Using the vendor bootloader serial console) * Use the serial to backup all /dev/mtd* devices before using the stock firmware (you got root shell when connected to serial). * Then reboot and select 'U-Boot Console' in the boot menu. * Copy the following lines, one by one: tftpboot 0x40080000 openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-preloader.bin tftpboot 0x40100000 openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-bl31-uboot.fip nand erase 0x0 0x180000 nand write 0x40080000 0x0 0x180000 reset Now continue with step 2 Step 2 Once the new bootchain comes up, the loader will initialize UBI and the ubootenv volumes. It will then of course fail to find any bootable volume and hence resort to load kernel via TFTP from server 192.168.1.254 while giving itself the address 192.168.1.1 The requested file is called openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-initramfs-recovery.itb and your TFTP server should provide exactly that :) It will be written to UBI as recovery image and booted. You can then continue and flash the production OS image, either by using sysupgrade in the booted initramfs recovery OS, or by using the bootloader menu and TFTP. That's it. Go ahead and mess around with a bootchain built almost completely from source (only DRAM calibration blobs are fitted in bl2, and the irreplacable on-chip ROM loader remains, of course). And enjoy U-Boot built with many great features out-of-the-box. You can access the bootloader environment from within OpenWrt using the 'fw_printenv' and 'fw_setenv' commands. Don't be afraid, once you got the new bootchain installed the device should be fairly unbrickable (holding reset button before and during power-on resets things and allows reflashing recovery image via TFTP) Special thanks to @dvn0 (Devan Carpenter) for providing amazingly fast infra for test-builds, allowing for `make clean ; make -j$(nproc)` in less than two minutes :) Signed-off-by: Daniel Golle <daniel@makrotopia.org>
