* the variant with 2.5G PHY instead of LAN SFP is called '2p5'
upstream and 'poe' in our downstream Linux 6.6 DT. Use the right
DTS depending on the kernel version and set an additional
compatible.
* drop additional DT overlay for WiFi.
The final version of the board uses a physical switch for the 12V
power of the WiFi module and the I2C EEPROM of the module always
comes empty (instead of with a MAC address).

In preparation of using the upstream mt7988a.dtsi when switching
to Linux 6.12 prepare by bringing our downstream version closer to
what went upstream.
* rename 'xphy' -> 'xsphy'
* rename 'uart[012]' -> 'serial[012]'
* only list pinctrl settings directly used in mt7988a.dtsi there,
leave it to boards to define all additional pinctrl settings
they need.
* move fan and thermal-zone to board level

**Huasifei WH3000 eMMC / Fudy MT3000**
Portable Wi-Fi 6 travel router based on MediaTek MT7981A SoC.
MT7981B+MT7976CN+RTL8221B Dual Core 1.3GHZ
**Specifications**
SoC: Filogic 820 MT7981A (1.3GHz)
RAM: DDR4 1GB
Flash: eMMC 8GB
WiFi: 2.4GHz and 5GHz with 3 antennas
Ethernet:
1x WAN (10/100/1000M)
1x LAN (10/100/1000/2500M)
USB: 1x USB 3.0 port
Two buttons: power/reset and mode (BTN_0)
LEDS: blue, red, blue+red=pink
UART: 3.3V, TX, RX, GND / 115200 8N1
**Installation via U-Boot rescue**
1. Set static IP 192.168.1.2 on your computer and default route as 192.168.1.1
2. Connect to the WAN port and hold the reset button while booting the device.
3. Wait for the LED to blink 5 times, and release the reset button.
4. Open U-boot web page on your browser at http://192.168.1.1
5. Select the OpenWRT sysupgrade image, upload it, and start the upgrade.
6. Wait for the router to flash the new firmware.
7. Wait for the router to reboot itself.
**Installation via sysupgrade**
Just flash sysupgrade file via [LuCI upgrade page](http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/luci/admin/system/flash) without saving the settings.
**Installation via SSH**
Upload the file to the router `/tmp` directory, `ssh root@192.168.1.1` and issue a command:
```
sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-mediatek-filogic-huasifei_wh3000-emmc-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
```
**Factory MAC**
You can find your Factory MAC which is mentioned on the box at `/dev/mmcblck0p2` partition `factory` starting from `0x4`
```
dd if=/dev/mmcblk0p2 bs=1 skip=4 count=6 | hexdump -C
```
**Enlarging a partition**
Though device has 8GB eMMC, it uses only 2GB `/dev/mmcblck0p6` as `rootfs` for `/rom` and `/overlay` leaving `/dev/mmcblck0p7` as empty unused space.
```
sgdisk -p /dev/mmcblk0
```
```
Disk /dev/mmcblk0: 15269888 sectors, 7.3 GiB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512/512 bytes
Disk identifier (GUID): 2BD17853-102B-4500-AA1A-8A21D4D7984D
Partition table holds up to 128 entries
Main partition table begins at sector 2 and ends at sector 33
First usable sector is 34, last usable sector is 14942174
Partitions will be aligned on 1024-sector boundaries
Total free space is 11197 sectors (5.5 MiB)
Number Start (sector) End (sector) Size Code Name
1 8192 9215 512.0 KiB 8300 u-boot-env
2 9216 13311 2.0 MiB 8300 factory
3 13312 21503 4.0 MiB 8300 fip
4 21504 29695 4.0 MiB 8300 config
5 29696 62463 16.0 MiB 8300 kernel
6 62464 4256767 2.0 GiB 8300 rootfs
7 4257792 14940159 5.1 GiB 8300
```
You can fix that by loading into `initramfs-kernel`, deleting empty `mmcblck0p7` partition and resizing `mmcblck0p6`
```
sysupgrade -F /tmp/openwrt-initramfs-kernel.bin
```
Install and run cfdisk
```
opkg update && opkg install cfdisk
cfdisk /dev/mmcblck0
```
- Select `mmcblck0p7` -> Delete
- Select `mmcblck0p6` -> Resize -> Write -> yes -> Quit
You will not see any difference in `cat /proc/partitions` after that but just flash a `sysupgrade` and you'll get the whole 7.3GB space for the `/overlay`.

With the current LED configuration using "mxl,led-config", the WAN LED
stops working after the interface is brought down and up again.
Since the driver also properly supports PHY LEDs now, switch to that
instead. This makes the LED work properly, but requires configuration
from userspace.

The manufacturer Cudy usually releases signed openwrt firmware, to
facilitate the migration from the proprietary version to the official
versions of openwrt. In contact with the manufacturer tells me that only
releases the firmware of the WR3000H if and only if
there is an official version. With this proposal I pretend to have an
initial operative version so that they do their part, and facilitate to
the users the possibility of using openwrt. In the present state, it is
only possible to use this firmware by uploading and installing it with
UART connection.
AX3000 2.5G Dual Band Wi-Fi 6 Mesh Router (WR3000H)

Installation
------------
1. Connect to the serial port as described in the "Hardware" section.
2. Power on the device + press reset pin. Keep pressing reset pin to
enter the U-Boot shell (The recovery.bin image load process must fail).
3. Download the OpenWrt initramfs image. Place it on an TFTP server
connected to the Cudy LAN ports. Make sure the server is reachable at
192.168.1.88. Rename the image to "cudy3000h.bin"
4. Download and boot the OpenWrt initramfs image.
$ tftpboot 0x46000000 cudy3000h.bin; bootm 0x46000000
5. IMPORTANT: Make backup from original firmware. System -> Backup
/Flash Firmware -> Save mtdblock contents. All mtdblock one by one,
keep unaltered (BL2, u-boot-env, Factory, bdinfo, FIP, and ubi).
6. Transfer the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to the device using scp.
Install with sysupgrade.
Warning for BL2 and U-BOOT developers
-------------------------------------
The nand partition layout from vendor is slightly diferent from "standard".
The FIP partition starts at 0x3c0000 be carefull with BL2 to BL31.
The UBI partition start at 0x5c0000 be carefull.
DO NOT OVERWRITE bdinfo partition it contains hardware MAC definition
Layout is start-end (not start size)
- 0x000000000000-0x000007800000 : "nmbm0"
- 0x000000000000-0x000000100000 : "bl2"
- 0x000000100000-0x000000180000 : "u-boot-env"
- 0x000000180000-0x000000380000 : "factory"

The board has been redesigned due to previous hardware bugs
(with other reasons maybe).
Changes in new board:
- Added a gpio beeper
- Added a Atmel i2c eeprom
- Added a Atmel i2c ECC accelerator
- Added a Philips RTC module
- Added two RS485
- Removed WPS button
- Replaced USB3 port with M.2 B-key for LTE modules
- Swapped GbE LEDs gpio
Also assigned wifi mac with nvmem binding, added iface setup for failsafe,
increased phy assert time for rtl8221b, and updated LED labels.
Keeping compatibility for old version is not necessary here as only
few samples were sent to those interested in it.

NRadio C8-668GL is a Wi-Fi 6 5G cellular router based on MediaTek MT7981B SoC.
- **SoC**: MediaTek MT7981B (2x Cortex-A53, 1.3GHz)
- **RAM**: Nanya NT5AD512M16C4-JR 1GB DDR4
- **Flash**: ESMT FC51L08SFY3A 8GB eMMC
- **Ethernet**:
- 1x 2.5GbE (via GMAC0 and GPY211 PHY, shared with MT7531AE)
- 3x 10/100/1000 Mbps (via MT7531AE, connected to GMAC0)
- 5G Modem: GMAC1 (via GPY211 PHY - RTL8125BG - RM520N-GL)
- **Wi-Fi**: MediaTek MT7976CN (2.4GHz/5GHz, 802.11ax, 2x2 MIMO, AX3000)
- **Buttons**: Reset, WPS
- **LEDs**: Power, 5G, 4G, WiFi
- **SIM Slot**: 1x Nano SIM
- **5G Modem**: Quectel RM520N-GL (Snapdragon™ X62)
- **Power**: 12V/2A DC, 5.5×2.1 connector
The MAC addresses are derived from the `fac_mac` field in the `bdinfo` partition, formatted as `fac_mac = HWMAC`. The allocation is as follows:
| Vendor | OpenWrt Interface | Address | Notes |
|---------|-------------------|---------------|------------------------------------------------|
| LAN | br-lan | Label MAC | Default |
| WAN | lan4 | Label MAC+1 | Only when lan4 is switched to WAN |
| 2.4GHz | phy0-ap0 | Label MAC | |
| 5GHz | phy1-ap0 | Label MAC | (Local Admin bit set) |
| Modem | eth1 | Label MAC+2 | |
1. Log in to the router via `http://192.168.66.1`/.
2. Upgrade the official firmware to dual-system mode.
3. Select **Burn second system** and upload the `sysupgrade.bin` image.
- Download the image from the OpenWrt build system or build it yourself using the OpenWrt buildroot.
4. Wait for 30 seconds and click **Switch system**.
5. The device will reboot and switch to OpenWrt.
Set the U-Boot environment variable `boot_system=0` and reboot:
```bash
fw_setenv boot_system 0
```
Power off the router, hold the **WPS button**, and power it back on.
1. Rename the stock firmware file to **`recovery.bin`**.
2. Set your PC's Ethernet IP to **192.168.1.88** and connect it to the lan1 port on the router.
3. Run a TFTP server and place the `recovery.bin` file in its root directory.
4. Power off the router, press and hold the **Reset button**, and power it back on.
5. Release the Reset button when the TFTP server shows activity.
6. Wait for the router to flash the firmware and reboot automatically.
- By default, `lan4` is part of `br-lan` and uses the label MAC address.
- To query the RM520N-GL module, use the following command:
```bash
cat /dev/ttyUSB2 & printf 'ATI\r\n' > /dev/ttyUSB2

Notice: while I was successfull at activating ssh (as described
here:
https://www.lisenet.com/2023/gaining-ssh-access-to-tp-link-re200-wi-fi-range-extender/)
Unfortunately I haven't found the correct root password.
Looks like they are using a static password
(md5crypt, salt + 21 characters) that is not the web
interface admin password.
The TP-LINK RE900XD looks like the very same device,
according to the pictures and the firmware.
But I haven't checked if the OpenWrt firmware works as well
on that device.
The second ubi partition (ubi1) is empty and there is no known
dual-partition mechanism, neither in u-boot nor in the stock firmware.

Installation instructions for eMMC
----------------------------------
0. Set boot switch to boot from SPI-NAND (assuming stock rom or immortalwrt
running there).
1. Write GPT partition table to eMMC
Move openwrt-mediatek-filogic-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-emmc-gpt.bin to
the device /tmp using scp and write it to /dev/mmcblk0:
dd if=/tmp/openwrt-*-r3-mini-emmc-gpt.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0
2. Reboot (to reload partition table)
3. Write bootloader and OpenWrt images
Move files to the device /tmp using scp:
- openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-emmc-preloader.bin
- openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-emmc-bl31-uboot.fip
- openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-initramfs-recovery.itb
- openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-squashfs-sysupgrade.itb
Write them to the appropriate partitions:
echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0boot0/force_ro
dd if=/tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-emmc-preloader.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0boot0
dd if=/tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-emmc-bl31-uboot.fip of=/dev/mmcblk0p3
dd if=/tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-initramfs-recovery.itb of=/dev/mmcblk0p4
dd if=/tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-squashfs-sysupgrade.itb of=/dev/mmcblk0p5
sync
4. Remove the device from power, set boot switch to eMMC and boot into
OpenWrt. The device will come up with IP 192.168.1.1 and assume the
Ethernet port closer to the USB-C power connector as LAN port.
5. If you like to have Ethernet support inside U-Boot (eg. to boot via
TFTP) you also need to write the PHY firmware to /dev/mmcblk0boot1:
echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0boot1/force_ro
dd if=/lib/firmware/airoha/EthMD32.dm.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0boot1
dd if=/lib/firmware/airoha/EthMD32.DSP.bin bs=16384 seek=1 of=/dev/mmcblk0boot1
Installation instructions for NAND
----------------------------------
0. Set boot switch to boot from eMMC (assuming OpenWrt is installed there
by instructions above. Using stock rom or immortalwrt does NOT work!)
1. Write things to NAND
Move files to the device /tmp using scp:
- openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-snand-preloader.bin
- openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-snand-bl31-uboot.fip
- openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-initramfs-recovery.itb
- openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-squashfs-sysupgrade.itb
Write them to the appropriate locations:
mtd write /tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-snand-preloader.bin /dev/mtd0
ubidetach -m 1
ubiformat /dev/mtd1
ubiattach -m 1
volsize=$(wc -c < /tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-snand-bl31-uboot.fip)
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N fip -n 0 -s $volsize -t static
ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_0 /tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-snand-bl31-uboot.fip
cd /lib/firmware/airoha
cat EthMD32.dm.bin EthMD32.DSP.bin > /tmp/en8811h-fw.bin
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N en8811h-firmware -n 1 -s 147456 -t static
ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_1 /tmp/en8811h-fw.bin
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 2 -N ubootenv -s 126976
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 3 -N ubootenv2 -s 126976
volsize=$(wc -c < /tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-initramfs-recovery.itb)
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 4 -N recovery -s $volsize
ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_4 /tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-initramfs-recovery.itb
volsize=$(wc -c < /tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-squashfs-sysupgrade.itb)
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 4 -N recovery -s $volsize
ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_4 /tmp/openwrt-*-bananapi_bpi-r3-mini-squashfs-sysupgrade.itb
3. Remove the device from power, set boot switch to NAND, power up and
boot into OpenWrt.
Partially based on immortalwrt support for the R3 mini, big thanks for
doing the ground work!

Hardware
--------
SOC: MediaTek MT7988A (4x Cortex-A73)
RAM: 4 GiB DDR4
Flash: 128 MiB Winbond SPI-NAND
MMC: 8 GiB eMMC *or* microSD (cannot be used both)
ETH: 4x 1GE (1x WAN, 3x LAN)
2x SFP+ (10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G)
USB: on-board USB 3.2 4-port hub
1x USB 3.2 port (type A connector)
1x M.2 for 4G/5G modem
2x mPCIe for additional modems
WiFi: optional MediaTek MT7996 Wi-Fi 7 module
(using 2x PCIe gen3 x2 on the mPCIe slots and 12V power)
Installation
------------
1. Decompress and write the sdcard image to a micro SD card and use that
to boot the R4 (both dip switches in upper position).
2. Use the bootloader menu accessible via the serial console to install
to SPI-NAND.
3. Switch to boot from SPI-NAND and install to eMMC.
Known issues
------------
- The RST button is hard-wired to the SoC reset and can't be read
from software. This can be changed by modifying the board (ie.
moving a 0-ohm resistor). However, in order to maintain compatibility
with the board as it comes from factory the button isn't used by
OpenWrt and the WPS button is used as factory/reset button instead.
- various small things still need to be fixed in DT
