Wenli Looi 0a1ebccc87 image: add additional fields to Netgear encrypted image
These fields are used for EAX12 and EX6250v2 series, and perhaps other
devices. Compatibility is preserved with the WAX202 and WAX206.

In addition, adds the related vars to DEVICE_VARS so that the variables
work correctly with multiple devices.

scripts/download.pl: make the download tool configurable
Introduce a new option in the "Advanced configuration options" to
configure a custom download tool.

By declaring a string in "Use custom download tool" an user can force
what command to use to download package. With the string empty the
default tool used is curl, with wget as a fallback if not available.

download.pl supports 3 tools officially aria2c, curl and wget.
If one of the tool is used in this config, download.pl will use the
default args to make use of them.

If the provided string is different than aria2c, curl or wget, the command
is used as is and the download url will be appended at the end of such command.

While at it also tweak the tool selection logic and chose the tool only
once when the script is called and move aria2c specific variables in the
relevant section.

 http://: Invalid host name.

Thats all happening due to '' was passed as an argument, which got later
expanded to http://.

In the context of a list constructor '' is not nothing, it is an empty
string element.  So fix it by using () as it will yield "nothing" and
thus not introduce an empty string element.

scripts: ext-toolchain: fix wrong prefix in print_config generation
The parsed prefix in print_config is wrong and this produce broken
generated .config that won't work with any external toolchain.

Currently the prefix from a CC of

'arm-openwrt-linux-muslgnueabi-gcc-12.1.0'

produce a prefix

'arm-openwrt-linux-muslgnueabi-gcc-'

This is wrong as the real prefix should be

'arm-openwrt-linux-muslgnueabi-'

This is probably caused by a change in how the toolchain is now handled
that now append also the gcc version. Probably in ancient days the
version wasn't part of the name and the prefix generation stripped the
'-gcc' instead of the gcc version.

Fix this and correctly strip the gcc version and the gcc suffix to

David Bauer a0b7fef0ff ramips: add support for ZyXEL NWA50AX / NWA55AXE
Hardware
--------
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

image: add support for Netgear encrypted image
Netgear encrypted image is used in various devices including WAX202,
WAX206, and EX6400v3. This image format also requires a dummy squashfs4
image which is added here as well.

References in WAX202 GPL source:
https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GPL/WAX202_V1.0.5.1_Source.rar

* openwrt/bootloader/u-boot-mt7621-2018.09-gitb178829-20200526/board/ralink/common/dual_image.c
  Bootloader code that verifies the presence of a squashfs4 image, thus
  a dummy image is added here.

* openwrt/tools/imgencoder/src/gj_enc.c
  Contains code that generates the encrypted image. There is support for
  adding an RSA signature, but it does not look like the signature is
  verified by the stock firmware or bootloader.

* openwrt/tools/imgencoder/src/imagekey.h
  Contains the encryption key and IV. It appears the same key/IV is used
  for other Netgear devices including WAX206 and EX6400v3.

Paul Spooren 7a73221332 build: use numeric-owner in ipkg-build
To create packages the `ipkg-build` script is used which double packs
`control.tar.gz` and `data.tar.gz` to a single package. By default it's
using a verbose username instead of a numeric value for files.

Official OpenWrt images (artifacts) are created within docker containers
which do not seem to contain those verbose usernames and instead
defaults to numeric values.

This becomes a problem when rebuilding public artifacts because other
build environments may offer verbose usernames and there the created
packages is different from the official ones.

With this commit `ipkg-build` always uses numeric values for user/group
and thereby making it easier to reproduce official artifacts.

scripts/gen_image_generic.sh: fix order of files in EFI bootfs
mtools recursive copy (mcopy -s ...) is using READDIR(3) to iterate
over the directory entries, hence they end up in the FAT filesystem in
traversal order which breaks reproducibility (rather than being added
to the FAT filesystem in a reproducible order). Implement recursive
copy in gen_image_generic.sh in Shell code instead, as in that way we
can force files to be copied in reproducible order.

It seems, that there are currently some unhandled corner cases in which
`.toolchain_build_ver` results in empty file and thus forcing rebuilds,
even if the toolchain was build correctly just a few moments ago. Until
proper fix is found, workaround that by checking for this corner case
and simply populate `.toolchain_build_ver` file.

While at it, improve the UX and display version mismatch, so it's more
clear what has forced the rebuild:

 "Toolchain build version changed (11.2.0-1 != ), running make targetclean"

base-files: add eMMC sysupgrade support
Adds generic support for sysupgrading on eMMC-based devices.

Provide function emmc_do_upgrade and emmc_copy_config to be used in
/lib/upgrade/platform.sh instead of redundantly implementing the same
logic over and over again.
Similar to generic sysupgrade on NAND, use environment variables
CI_KERNPART, CI_ROOTPART and newly introduce CI_DATAPART to indicate
GPT partition names to be used. On devices with more than one MMC
block device, CI_ROOTDEV can be used to specify the MMC device for
partition name lookups.

Also allow to select block devices directly using EMMC_KERN_DEV,
EMMC_ROOT_DEV and EMMC_DATA_DEV, as using GPT partition names is not
always an option (e.g. when forced to use MBR).

To easily handle writing kernel and rootfs make use of sysupgrade.tar
format convention which is also already used for generic NAND support.

Damien Mascord fd67908647 scripts: mkits.sh: Allow legacy @ mode for dts creation
commit 5ec60cbe9d ("scripts: mkits.sh: replace @ with - in nodes")
broke support for Meraki MR32 and this patch makes the replacement
configurable allowing for specifying the @ or - or whatever character
that is desired to retain backwards compatibility with existing devices.

For example, this patch includes the fix for the Meraki MR32 in
target/linux/bcm53xx/image for meraki_mr32:

  DEVICE_DTS_DELIMITER := @
  DEVICE_DTS_CONFIG := config@1

Ansuel Smith 93f488fc37 scripts: handle gcc and linux in dl_cleanup script
Handle gcc and linux with a special regex that set their progname with
their major version. This way every minor version can be cleared. The
build cleanup logic can be tweaked later to clean the entire toolchain
and target dir with a different gcc version.

Ansuel Smith 4eb4c3c469 scripts: add missing regex for dl_cleanup script
Regex xxx-YYYY-MM-DD-GIT_SHASUM was missing. Add the new regex to improve
and better find outdated package. This also fix a bug where some bug were
incorrectly detected as packagename-yyyy-mm-dd instead of packagename due
to them be parsed by the wrong parser

Paul Spooren 5ef4608c02 build: store artifacts in JSON
Multiple profiles create artifacts, these should be stored in the JSON
file as well, allowing downstream tooling to show those files, too.

Artifacts don't have specific filesystems so only the fields `name`,
`type` and `sha256` are available.

Rename env variable names from IMAGE_ to FILE_ prefixes to reflect that
images, kernels and artifacts are added with the same command.

base-files: rename 'sdcard' to 'legacy-sdcard'
While an image layout based on MBR and 'bootfs' partition may be easy
to understand for users who are very used to the IBM PC and always have
the option to access the SD card outside of the device (and hence don't
really depend on other recovery methods or dual-boot), in my opinion
it's a dead end for many desirable features on embedded systems,
especially when managed remotely (and hence without an easy option to
access the SD card using another device in case things go wrong, for
example).

Let me explain:

* using a MSDOS/VFAT filesystem to store kernel(s) is problematic, as a
  single corruption of the bootfs can render the system into a state
  that it no longer boots at all. This makes dual-boot useless, or at
  least very tedious to setup with then 2 independent boot partitions
  to avoid the single point of failure on a "hot" block (the FAT index
  of the boot partition, written every time a file is changed in
  bootfs). And well: most targets even store the bootloader environment
  in a file in that very same FAT filesystem, hence it cannot be used
  to script a reliable dual-boot method (as loading the environment
  itself will already fail if the filesystem is corrupted).

* loading the kernel uImage from bootfs and using rootfs inside an
  additional partition means the bootloader can only validate the
  kernel -- if rootfs is broken or corrupted, this can lead to a reboot
  loop, which is often a quite costly thing to happen in terms of
  hardware lifetime.

* imitating MBR-boot behavior with a FAT-formatted bootfs partition
  (like IBM PC in the 80s and 90s) is just one of many choices on
  embedded targets. There are much better options with modern U-Boot
  (which is what we use and build from source for all targets booting
  off SD cards), see examples in mediatek/mt7622 and mediatek/mt7623.

Hence rename the 'sdcard' feature to 'legacy-sdcard', and prefix
functions with 'legacy_sdcard_' instead of 'sdcard_'.
