Joao Henrique Albuquerque 4f07966696 ath79: add support for COMFAST CF-E375AC
COMFAST CF-E375AC is a ceiling mount AP with PoE support,
based on Qualcomm/Atheros QCA9563 + QCA9886 + QCA8337.

Short specification:

    2x 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet, with PoE support
    128MB of RAM (DDR2)
    16 MB of FLASH
    3T3R 2.4 GHz, 802.11b/g/n
    2T2R 5 GHz, 802.11ac/n/a, wave 2
    built-in 5x 3 dBi antennas
    output power (max): 500 mW (27 dBm)
    1x RGB LED, 1x button
    built-in watchdog chipset

Flash instruction:
1) Original firmware is based on OpenWrt.
Use sysupgrade image directly in vendor GUI.

2) TFTP
2.1) Set a tftp server on your machine with a fixed IP address of
     192.168.1.10. A place the sysupgrade as firmware_auto.bin.
2.2) boot the device with an ethernet connection on fixed ip route
2.3) wait a few seconds and try to login via ssh

3) TFTP trough Bootloader
3.1) open the device case and get a uart connection working
3.2) stop the autoboot process and test connection with serverip
3.3) name the sysupgrade image firmware.bin and run firmware_upg

MAC addresses:
Though the OEM firmware has four adresses in the usual locations,
it appears that the assigned addresses are just incremented in a
different way:

interface    address    location
LAN:          *:DC      0x0
WAN           *:DD      0x1002
WLAN 2.4g     *:E6      n/a (0x0 + 10)
WLAN 5g       *:DE      0x6
unused        *:DF      0x5006

The MAC address pointed at the label is the one assign to the LAN
interface.

OpenWrt logo

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.

Sunshine!

Development

To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.

Requirements

You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.

binutils bzip2 diff find flex gawk gcc-6+ getopt grep install libc-dev libz-dev
make4.1+ perl python3.6+ rsync subversion unzip which

Quickstart

  1. Run ./scripts/feeds update -a to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default

  2. Run ./scripts/feeds install -a to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/

  3. Run make menuconfig to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages.

  4. Run make to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.

The main repository uses multiple sub-repositories to manage packages of different categories. All packages are installed via the OpenWrt package manager called opkg. If you're looking to develop the web interface or port packages to OpenWrt, please find the fitting repository below.
