Use the "1/1" as a iteration count of hexdump expression instead of the
broken "1", to fix the issue that the invalid bootnum will be obtained.
Currently, the hexdump command always outputs "0" when the decimal format
and the iteration count "1" are specified[0]. This is unexpected
behaviour, but the cause is unknown and use this fix as a workaround.

The code can be made more efficient by not extracting the sysupgrade.tar but
rather just querying for the filesize within the archive. Resorting to
manual update of UBI volume is extra work too, setting CI_KERNPART=rootfs_0
is enough.

Add support for Genexis Pulse EX400 / Inteno Pulse EX400. A branded
variant for the Finnish ISP DNA has already been added in fea2264d9f
(ramips: mt7621: Add DNA Valokuitu Plus EX400, 2023-07-31). This commit
adds support for the generic variants with Inteno and Genexis branding.
Inteno changed its name to Genexis and both brandings exist.
In terms of electronics, there is no difference between the DNA-branded
version and other brandings. LED markings on the case are different,
though. While the DNA-version has a "software-update" LED, the other
versions have a WPS LED. To reduce user confusion, create a separate
image.
Add the different device-tree with the different LED and rename things
to work the same way for both variants.
Specifications:
- Device: Genexis Pulse EX400 / Inteno Pulse EX400
- SoC: MT7621A
- Flash: 256 MB NAND
- RAM: 256 MB
- Ethernet: Built-in, 2 x 1 GbE
- Wifi: MT7603 2.4 GHz 2x2 MIMO, MT7615 5 GHz 4x4 MU-MIMO
- USB: 1x 2.0

Firmware:
The vendor firmware is a fork of OpenWrt (Reboot) with a kernel version
4.4.93. The flash is arranged as below and there is a dual boot
mechanism alternating between rootfs_0 and rootfs_1.
+-------+------+------+-----------+-----------+
| | env1 | env2 | rootfs_0 | rootfs_1 |
| +------+------+-----------+-----------+
| | UBI volumes |
+-------+-------------------------------------+
|U-Boot | UBI |
+-------+-------------------------------------+
|mtd0 | mtd1 |
+-------+-------------------------------------+
| NAND |
+---------------------------------------------+
In OpenWrt rootfs_0 will be used as a boot partition that will contain the
kernel and the dtb. The squashfs rootfs and overlay are standard OpenWrt
behaviour.
+-------+------+------+-----------+--------+------------+
| | env1 | env2 | rootfs_0 | rootfs | rootfs_data|
| +------+------+-----------+--------+------------+
| | UBI volumes |
+-------+-----------------------------------------------+
|U-Boot | UBI |
+-------+-----------------------------------------------+
|mtd0 | mtd1 |
+-------+-----------------------------------------------+
| NAND |
+-------------------------------------------------------+
U-boot:
With proper serial access, booting can be halted to U-boot by pressing
any key. TFTP and flash writes are available, but only the first one has
been tested.
NOTE: Recovery mode can be accessed by holding down the reset button while
powering on the device. The led 'Update' will show a solid green light
once ready. A web server will be running at 192.168.1.1:80 and it will
allow flashing a firmware package. You can cycle between rootfs_0 and
rootfs_1 by pressing the reset button once.
Root password:
With the vendor web UI create a backup of your settings and download the
archive to your computer. Within the archive in the file
/etc/shadow replace the password hash for root with that of a password you
know. Restore the configuration with the vendor web UI and you will have
changed the root password.
SSH access:
You might need to enable the SSH service for LAN interface as by default
it's enabled for WAN only.
Installing OpenWrt:
With the vendor web UI, or from the U-Boot recovery UI, install the
OpenWrt factory image. Alternatively, ssh to the device and use
sysupgrade -n from cli.
Finalize by installing the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to get a fully
functioning system.
Reverting to the vendor firmware:
Boot with OpenWrt initramfs image
- Remove volumes rootfs_0, rootfs and rootfs_data and create vendor
volumes.
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -n 2
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -n 3
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -n 4
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N rootfs_0 -S 990
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N rootfs_1 -S 990
Power off and enter to the U-boot recovery to install the vendor
firmware.

Edgerouter X currently has its eth1 port on the switch missing since there
is a naming conflict currently.
So, as the root cause is mixing kernel support for DSA interfaces having
predictable names set via "label" property vs others having it assigned
dynamically lets avoid the conflict by using our own custom property as
suggested upstream [1].
So, add support via "openwrt,netdev-name" property and use it on ERX.

Known issue
-----------
2.4 GHz WLAN doesn't start with mt76 driver.
Probable reason:
Original Netis N6 EEPROM contains wrong MT_EE_WIFI_CONF value (0xd2).
Other routers with the same WLAN hardware (e.g., Routerich AX1800)
have MT_EE_WIFI_CONF = 0x92.
Workaround (already included in this commit):
Extract EEPROM to a file at the first time boot and change
MT_EE_WIFI_CONF (offset 0x190) value from 0xd2 to 0x92. See
/etc/hotplug.d/firmware/11-mt76-caldata for details.

U-boot:
With proper serial access booting can be halted to U-boot by pressing any
key. TFTP and flash writes are available, but only the first one has been
tested.
NOTE: Recovery mode can be accessed by holding down the reset button while
powering on the device. The led 'Update' will show a solid green light
once ready. A web server will be running at 192.168.1.1:80 and it will
allow flashing a firmware package. You can cycle between rootfs_0 and
rootfs_1 by pressing the reset button once.
Root password:
With the vendor web UI create a backup of your settings and download the
archive to your computer. Within the archive in the file
/etc/shadow replace the password hash for root with that of a password you
know. Restore the configuration with the vendor web UI and you will have
changed the root password.
SSH access:
You might need to enable the SSH service for LAN interface as by default
it's enabled for WAN only.
Installing OpenWrt:
With the vendor web UI install the OpenWrt factory image. Alternatively,
ssh to the device and use sysupgrade -n from cli.
Finalize by installing the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to get a fully
functioning system.
Reverting to the vendor firmware:
Boot with OpenWrt initramfs image
- Remove volumes rootfs_0, rootfs and rootfs_data and create vendor
volumes.
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -n 2
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -n 3
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -n 4
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N rootfs_0 -S 990
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N rootfs_1 -S 990
Power off and enter to the U-boot recovery to install the vendor
firmware.
Known issues:
- MACs for wifi are stored in currently unknown place but it seems
to persist over power-off. They might be stored on the chip.

I-O DATA WN-DEAX1800GR is a 2.4/5 GHz band 11ax (Wi-Fi 6) router, based
on MT7621A.
Specification:
- SoC : MediaTek MT7621A
- RAM : DDR3 256 MiB (Nanya NT5CC128M16JR-EK)
- Flash : RAW NAND 128 MiB (Winbond W29N01HVSINF)
- WLAN : 2.4/5 GHz (MediaTek MT7915)
- Ethernet : 5x 10/100/1000 Mbps
- Switch : MT7530 (SoC)
- LEDs/Keys : 6x/3x
- UART : through-hole on PCB (J2)
- assignment: 3.3V, GND, TX, RX from "1" marking
- settings : 115200n8
- Power : 12 VDC, 1 A
Flash instruction using initramfs-factory image:
1. Boot WN-DEAX1800GR normally
2. Access to "http://192.168.0.1/" and open firmware update page
("ファームウェア")
3. Select the OpenWrt initramfs-factory.bin image and click update
("更新") button to perform firmware update
4. On the initramfs image, perform sysupgrade with the
squashfs-sysupgrade.bin image
5. Wait ~120 seconds to complete flashing
Note:
- This device has 2x OS images on the flash storage. In this support,
the first one will be used.
Warning:
- Do not use "saveenv" command on U-Boot CLI.
This device has wrong u-boot-env data. The actual length of individual
env data installed to the device is 0x1000 (4 KiB), but installed
U-Boot requires 0x20000 (128 KiB). So U-Boot determines the data is
invalid. Then, if you perform saving environment data with saveenv on
U-Boot CLI, installed env data will be overwritten with too few
default values without individual values (SSID, password, MAC
addresses, etc...).

The ZyXEL WSM20 aka Multy M1 is a cheap mesh router system by ZyXEL
based on the MT7621 CPU.
Specifications
==============
SoC: MediaTek MT7621AT (880MHz)
RAM: 256MiB
Flash: 128MiB NAND
Wireless: 802.11ax (2x2 MT7915E DBDC)
Ethernet: 4x 10/100/1000 (MT7530)
Button: 1x WPS, 1x Reset, 1x LED On/Off
LED: 7 LEDs (3x white, 2x red, 2x green)
MAC address assignment
======================
The MAC address assignment follows stock: The label MAC address is the LAN
MAC address, the WAN address is read from flash.
The WiFi MAC addresses are set in userspace to label MAC + 1 and label MAC
+ 2.
Installation (web interface)
============================
The device is cloud-managed, but there is a hidden local firmware upgrade
page in the OEM web interface. The device has to be registered in the
cloud in order to be able to access this page.
The system has a dual firmware design, there is no way to tell which
firmware is currently booted. Therefore, an -initramfs version is flashed
first.
1. Log into the OEM web GUI
2. Access the hidden upgrade page by navigating to
https://192.168.212.1/gui/#/main/debug/firmwareupgrade
3. Upload the -initramfs-kernel.bin file and flash it
4. Wait for OpenWrt to boot and log in via SSH
5. Transfer the sysupgrade file via SCP
6. Run sysupgrade to install the image
7. Reboot and enjoy
NB: If the initramfs version was installed in RAS2, the sysupgrade script
sets the boot number to the first partition. A backup has to be performed
manually in case the OEM firwmare should be kept.
Installation (UART method)
==========================
The UART method is more difficult, as the boot loader does not have a
timeout set. A semi-working stock firmware is required to configure it:
1. Attach UART
2. Boot the stock firmware until the message about failsafe mode appears
3. Enter failsafe mode by pressing "f" and "Enter"
4. Type "mount_root"
5. Run "fw_setenv bootmenu_delay 3"
6. Reboot, U-Boot now presents a menu
7. The -initramfs-kernel.bin image can be flashed using the menu
8. Run the regular sysupgrade for a permanent installation
Changing the partition to boot is a bit cumbersome in U-Boot, as there is
no menu to select it. It can only be checked using mstc_bootnum. To change
it, issue the following commands in U-Boot:
nand read 1800000 53c0000 800
mw.b 1800004 1 1
nand erase 53c0000 800
nand write 1800000 53c0000 800
This selects FW1. Replace "mw.b 1800004 1 1" by "mw.b 1800004 2 1" to
change to the second slot.
Back to stock
=============
It is possible to flash back to stock, but a OEM firmware upgrade is
required. ZyXEL does not provide the link on its website, but the link
can be acquired from the OEM web GUI by analyzing the transferred JSON
objects.
It is then a matter of writing the firmware to Kernel2 and setting the
boot partition to FW2:
mtd write zyxel.bin Kernel2
echo -ne "\x02" | dd of=/dev/mtdblock7 count=1 bs=1 seek=4 conv=notrunc

Notes
-----
[1] WAN MAC address:
a. First octet of WAN MAC is differ than others and OUI is not related
to TP-Link company. This probably should be fixed.
b. Flipping bits in first octet and hex delta are different for the
different MAC examples:
+-----------------+----------------+----------------+
| | Example 1 | Example 2 |
+-----------------+----------------+----------------+
| LAN | 68 = 0110 1000 | 50 = 0101 0000 |
| MAC (1st octet) | ^ ^ ^ | |
+-----------------+----------------+----------------+
| WAN | 72 = 0111 0010 | 54 = 0101 0100 |
| MAC (1st octet) | ^ ^ ^ | ^ |
+-----------------+----------------+----------------+
| HEX delta | 0xa | 0x4 |
+-----------------+----------------+----------------+
| DEC delta | 4 | 4 |
+-----------------+----------------+----------------+
c. DEC delta is a constant (4). This looks like a mistake in OEM
firmware and probably should be fixed.
Based on the above, I decided to keep correct OUI and make WAN MAC =
label + 1.
[2] Bootloaders
The device contains 3 bootloaders:
- First U-Boot: U-Boot 1.1.3 (Mar 18 2019 - 12:50:24). The First U-Boot
located on NAND Flash to load next full-feature Uboot.
- Main U-Boot + its backup: U-Boot 1.1.3 (Mar 18 2019 - 12:50:29). This
bootloader includes recovery webserver. Requires special uImages to
continue the boot process:
0x00 (os0, os1) - firmware uImage
0x40 (os0, os1) - standalone uImage (OpenWrt kernel is here)
- Additionally, both slots of the original TP-Link firmware contains
Image U-Boot: U-Boot 1.1.3 (Oct 16 2019 - 08:14:45). It checks image
magics and CRCs. We don't use this U-Boot with OpenWrt.

This is a MT7621-based device with 128MB NAND flash, 256MB RAM, and a USB port.
The board has headers to attach console. In order for them to work two solder
bridges near those pads need to be made.
The defice has the following partition table:
```
0x000000000000-0x000000080000 : "u-boot"
0x000000080000-0x000000100000 : "u-boot-env"
0x000000100000-0x000000140000 : "factory"
0x000000140000-0x000007e00000 : "firmware"
0x000007e00000-0x000008000000 : "panic-ops"
```
`firmware` partition contains UBI volumes. Unfortunately I accidentally wiped
partition and I no longer have access to it.
`firmware` partition contains 'secondary' U-Boot which is run by 'first' u-boot.
It also contains various configuration partitions that include device info and
MAC address. There also seems to be 'primary' and 'backup' set of 'main' volumes.
U-boot has `mtkupgrade` command that just overrides data on firmware partitions.
Firmware file provided by TP-Link cannot be used with that command.
U-boot also has 'recovery' http server. Unfortunately I was not able to make it
work with manufacturer's firmware.
Manufacturer's firmware essentially contains multiple UBI volumes along with
'partition table'. Unfortunately I no longer can properly run manufacturer's
firmware so I cannot at the moment try to a support for building 'factory' images.
This patch adds support for initramfs image as well as sysupgrade image.
This seems to be pretty standard MT7621 board otherwise.
Things that work:
* network
* leds
* usb
* factory MAC detection

TFTP Installation (initramfs image only & recommend):
1. Set local tftp server IP: 192.168.1.254 and NetMask: 255.255.255.0
2. Rename initramfs-kernel.bin to "factory.bin" and put it in the root
directory of the tftp server. (tftpd64 is a good choice for Windows)
3. Start the TFTP server, plug in the power supply, and wait for the
system to boot.
4. Backup "firmware" partition and rename it to "firmware.bin", we need
it to back to stock firmware.
5. Use "fw_printenv" command to list envs.
If "firmware_select=2" is observed then set u-boot enviroment:
/# fw_setenv firmware_select 1
6. Apply sysupgrade.bin in OpenWrt LuCI.
Web UI Installation:
1. Apply update by uploading initramfs-factory.bin to the web UI.
2. Use "fw_printenv" command to list envs.
If "firmware_select=2" is observed then set u-boot enviroment:
/# fw_setenv firmware_select 1
3. Apply squashfs-sysupgrade.bin in OpenWrt LuCI.
Recovery to stock firmware:
a. Upload "firmware.bin" to OpenWrt /tmp, then execute:
/# mtd -r write /tmp/firmware.bin firmware
b. We can also write factory image "UploadBrush-bin.img" to firmware
partition to recovery. Upload image file to /tmp, then execute:
/# mtd erase firmware
/# mtd -r write /tmp/UploadBrush-bin.img firmware
How to extract stock firmware image:
Download stock firmware, then use openssl:
openssl aes-256-cbc -d -salt -in [Downloaded_Firmware] \

Compatibility mode is used to guarantee the connection of old devices
that only support WiFi4 or WiFi5.
TFTP + TTL Installation:
Although a TTL connection is required for installation, we do not need
to tear down it. We can find the TTL port from the cooling hole at the
bottom. It is located below LAN3 and the pins are defined as follows:
|LAN1|LAN2|LAN3|----|WAN|
--------------------
|GND|TX|RX|VCC|
1. Set tftp server IP to 192.168.124.99 and put initramfs firmware in
server's root directory, rename it to a simple name "initramfs.bin".
2. Plug in the power supply and wait for power on, connect the TTL cable
and open a TTL session, enter "reboot", then enter "Y" to confirm.
Finally push "0" to interruput boot while booting.
3. Execute command to install a initramfs system:
# tftp 0x80010000 192.168.124.99:initramfs.bin
# bootm 0x80010000
4. Backup nand flash by OpenWrt LuCI or dd instruction. We need those
partitions if we want to back to stock firmwre due to official
website does not provide download link.
# dd if=/dev/mtd1 of=/tmp/u-boot-env.bin
# dd if=/dev/mtd4 of=/tmp/firmware.bin
5. Edit u-boot env to ensure use default bootargs and first image slot:
# fw_setenv bootargs
# fw_setenv bootflag 0
6. Upgrade sysupgrade firmware.
7. About restore stock firmware: flash the "firmware" and "u-boot-env"
partitions that we backed up in step 4.
# mtd write /tmp/u-boot-env.bin u-boot-env
# mtd write /tmp/firmware.bin firmware
Additional Info:
The H3C stock firmware has a 160-byte firmware header that appears to
use a non-standard CRC32 verification algorithm. For this part of the
data, the u-boot does not check it so we can just directly replace it
with a placeholder.

CPU: Mediatek MT7621
RAM: 256M DDR3
FLASH: 128M NAND
ETH: 1x Gigabit Ethernet
WiFi: Mediatek MT7915 (2.4/5GHz 802.11ax 2x2 DBDC)
BTN: 1x Reset (NWA50AX only)
LED: 1x Multi-Color (NWA50AX only)
UART Console
------------
NWA50AX:
Available below the rubber cover next to the ethernet port.
NWA55AXE:
Available on the board when disassembling the device.
Settings: 115200 8N1
Layout:
<12V> <LAN> GND-RX-TX-VCC
Logic-Level is 3V3. Don't connect VCC to your UART adapter!
Installation Web-UI
-------------------
Upload the Factory image using the devices Web-Interface.
As the device uses a dual-image partition layout, OpenWrt can only
installed on Slot A. This requires the current active image prior
flashing the device to be on Slot B.
If the currently installed image is started from Slot A, the device will
flash OpenWrt to Slot B. OpenWrt will panic upon first boot in this case
and the device will return to the ZyXEL firmware upon next boot.
If this happens, first install a ZyXEL firmware upgrade of any version
and install OpenWrt after that.
Installation TFTP
-----------------
This installation routine is especially useful in case
* unknown device password (NWA55AXE lacks reset button)
* bricked device
Attach to the UART console header of the device. Interrupt the boot
procedure by pressing Enter.
The bootloader has a reduced command-set available from CLI, but more
commands can be executed by abusing the atns command.
Boot a OpenWrt initramfs image available on a TFTP server at
192.168.1.66. Rename the image to owrt.bin
$ atnf owrt.bin
$ atna 192.168.1.88
$ atns "192.168.1.66; tftpboot; bootm"
Upon booting, set the booted image to the correct slot:
$ zyxel-bootconfig /dev/mtd10 get-status
$ zyxel-bootconfig /dev/mtd10 set-image-status 0 valid
$ zyxel-bootconfig /dev/mtd10 set-active-image 0
Copy the OpenWrt ramboot-factory image to the device using scp.
Write the factory image to NAND and reboot the device.
$ mtd write ramboot-factory.bin firmware
$ reboot
