Andreas Böhler 5f8c86e654 realtek: add support for TP-Link SG2452P v4 aka T1600G-52PS v4 
This is an RTL8393-based switch with 802.3af on all 48 ports.

Specifications:
---------------
 * SoC:       Realtek RTL8393M
 * Flash:     32 MiB SPI flash
 * RAM:       256 MiB
 * Ethernet:  48x 10/100/1000 Mbps with PoE+
 * Buttons:   1x "Reset" button, 1x "Speed" button
 * UART:      1x serial header, unpopulated
 * PoE:       12x TI TPS23861 I2C PoE controller, 384W PoE budget
 * SFP:       4 SFP ports

Works:
------
  - (48) RJ-45 ethernet ports
  - Switch functions
  - Buttons
  - All LEDs on front panel except port LEDs
  - Fan monitoring and basic control

Not yet enabled:
----------------
  - PoE - ICs are not in AUTO mode, so the kernel driver is not usable
  - Port LEDs
  - SFP cages

Install via web interface:
-------------------------

Not supported at this time.

Install via serial console/tftp:
--------------------------------

The U-Boot firmware drops to a TP-Link specific "BOOTUTIL" shell at
38400 baud. There is no known way to exit out of this shell, and no
way to do anything useful.

Ideally, one would trick the bootloader into flashing the sysupgrade
image first. However, if the image exceeds 6MiB in size, it will not
work. To install OpenWRT:

Prepare a tftp server with:
 1. server address: 192.168.0.146
 2. the image as: "uImage.img"

Power on device, and stop boot by pressing any key.
Once the shell is active:
 1. Ground out the CLK (pin 16) of the ROM (U6)
 2. Select option "3. Start"
 3. Bootloader notes that "The kernel has been damaged!"
 4. Release CLK as soon as bootloader thinks image is corrupted.
 5. Bootloader enters automatic recovery -- details printed on console
 6. Watch as the bootloader flashes and boots OpenWRT.

Blind install via tftp:
-----------------------

This method works when it's not feasible to install a serial header.

Prepare a tftp server with:
 1. server address: 192.168.0.146
 2. the image as: "uImage.img"
 3. Watch network traffic (tcpdump or wireshark works)
 4. Power on the device.
 5. Wait 1-2 seconds then ground out the CLK (pin 16) of the ROM (U6)
 6. When 192.168.0.30 makes tftp requests, release pin 16
 7. Wait 2-3 minutes for device to auto-flash and boot OpenWRT

README.md

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.

Related Repositories

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.

  • LuCI Web Interface: Modern and modular interface to control the device via a web browser.

  • OpenWrt Packages: Community repository of ported packages.

  • OpenWrt Routing: Packages specifically focused on (mesh) routing.

  • OpenWrt Video: Packages specifically focused on display servers and clients (Xorg and Wayland).
