It was reported AR8033 did not work in fiber operation mode on the ER-X.
While the earlier attempt of fixing this mitigated the issue of 1000
Base-X link mode not being supported, it also switched to the copper
page, breaking fiber operation altogether.
Extend the hack adding fiber operation so it does not switch to the
copper page. Also remove the part where the supported link mode bit for
1000 Base-X is removed, as this is required for fiber operation.

These boards have AR8327 or QCA8337 external ethernet switch.
The SOC also has it's own internal switch
where VLAN is now enabled by default.
Changes to preinit caused all switches to have VLANs enabled by default
even if they are not configured with a topology in uci_defaults
(see commit f017f617ae)
When both internal and external switches have VLANs,
and the external switch has both LAN and WAN,
the TX traffic from the SOC cannot flow to the tagged port on the external switch
because the VLAN IDs are not matching.
So disable the internal switch VLANs by default on these boards.
Also, add a topology for the internal switch,
so that on LuCI there is not an "unknown topology" warning.
In theory, it may be possible to have LAN ports on both switches
through internal and external PHYs, but there are no known boards that have this.

The function mt7620_mdio_mode is only called once
and both the function and mdio_mode block have been named incorrectly,
leading to confusion and useless commits.
These lines in the mdio_mode block of mt7620_hw_init
are only intended for boards with an external mt7530 switch.
(see commit 194ca6127e)
Therefore, move lines from mdio_mode to the place in soc_mt7620.c
where the type of mt7530 switch is identified,
and move lines from mt7620_mdio_mode to a main function.
mt7620_mdio_mode was called from mt7620_gsw_init
where the priv struct is available,
so the lines must stay in mt7620_gsw_init function.
In order to keep things as simple as possible,
keep the DTS property related function calls together,
by moving them from mt7620_gsw_probe to init.
Remove the now useless DTS properties and extra phy nodes.

Set the PHY base address to 12 for mt7530 and 8 for others,
which is based on the default setting for some devices
from printing the register with the following command
after it is written to by uboot during the boot cycle.
`md 0x10117014 1`
PHY_BASE option only uses 5 bits of the register,
bits 16 to 20, so use 8-bit integer type.
Set the option using the DTS property mediatek,ephy-base
and create the gsw node if missing.
Also, added a kernel message to display the EPHY base address.
Note:
If anything is written to a PHY address that is greater than 1 hex char (greater than 0xf)
then there is adverse effects with Atheros switches.
Signed-off-by: Michael Pratt <mcpratt@pm.me>
When the new variable ephy_base was introduced,
it was not applied to the if block for mdio_mode.
The first line in the mdio_mode if block
sets the EPHY base address to 12 in the SOC by writing a register,
but the corresponding variable in the driver
was still set to the default of 0.
This causes subsequent lines that write registers with the function
_mt7620_mii_write
to write to PHY addresses 0 through 4
while internal PHYs have been moved to addresses 12 through 16.
All of these lines are intended only for PHYs on the SOC internal switch,
however, they are being written to external ethernet switches
if they exist at those PHY addresses 0 through 4.
This causes some ethernet ports to be broken on boards with AR8327 or QCA8337 switch.
Other suggested fixes move those lines to the else block of mdio_mode,
but removing the else block completely also fixes it.
Therefore, move the lines to the mt7620_hw_init function main block,
and have only one instance of the function mtk_switch_w32
for writing the register with the EPHY base address.
In theory, this also allows for boards that have both external switches
and internal PHYs that lead to ethernet ports to be supported.

A workaround was added to the switch driver

However, the ethernet driver already does this,
but is being blocked by a return statement
whenever the phy-handle and fixed-link properties
are both missing from nodes that define the port properties.
Revert the workaround, so that both the switch driver
and ethernet driver are not doing the same thing
and move the phy-handle related lines down
so nothing is ending the function prematurely.

These nodes are used for configuring a GMAC interface
and for defining external PHYs to be accessed with MDIO.
None of this is possible on MT7620N, only MT7620A,

When the mdio-bus node is missing, the driver returns -NODEV

Installation
------------
Using the webcmd interface
--------------------------
Warning: Do not update to the latest Wavlink firmware (version
20201201) as this removes the webcmd console and you will need to
use the serial port instead.
You will need to have built uboot/sqauashfs image for this device,
and you will need to provide an HTTP service where the image can
be downloaded from that is accessible by the device.
You cannot use the device manufacturers firmware upgrade interface
as it rejects the OpenWrt image.
1. Log into the device's admin portal. This is necessary to
authenticate you as a user in order to be able to access the
webcmd interface.
2. Navigate to http://<device-ip>/webcmd.shtml - you can access
the console directly through this page, or you may wish to
launch the installed `telnetd` and use telnet instead.
* Using telnet is recommended since it provides a more
convenient shell interface that the web form.
* Launch telnetd from the form with the command `telnetd`.
* Check the port that telnetd is running on using
`netstat -antp|grep telnetd`, it is likely to be 2323.
* Connect to the target using `telnet`. The username should
be `admin2860`, and the password is your admin password.
3. On the target use `curl` to download the image.
e.g. `curl -L -O http://<some-other-lan-ip>/openwrt-ramips-mt7620-\
wavlink_wl-wn579x3-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin`.
Check the hash using `md5sum`.
4. Use the mtd_write command to flash the image.
* The flash partition should be mtd4, but check
/sys/class/mtd/mtd4/name first. The partition should be
called 'Kernel'.
* To flash use the following command:
`mtd_write -r -e /dev/mtd<n> write <image-file> /dev/mtd<n>`
Where mtd<n> is the Kernel partition, and <image-file> is
the OpenWrt image previously downloaded.
* The command above will erase, flash and then reboot the
device. Once it reboots it will be running OpenWrt.
Connect via ssh to the device at 192.168.1.1 on the LAN port.
The WAN port will be configured via DHCP.
Using the serial port
---------------------
The device uses uboot like many other MT7260a based boards. To
use this interface, you will need to connect to the serial
interface, and provide a TFTP server. At boot follow the
bootloader menu and select option 2 to erase/flash the image.
Provide the address and filename details for the tftp server.
The bootloader will do the rest.
Once the image is flashed, the board will boot into OpenWrt. The
console is available over the serial port.

This might fail due to the A/B nature of this device. When flashing, OEM
firmware writes over the non-booted partition. If booted from 'A',
flashing over 'B' won't work. To get around this, you should flash the
OEM image over itself. This will then boot the router from 'B' and
allow you to flash OpenWRT without problems.
Reverting to factory firmware:
Hard-reset the router three times to force it to boot from 'B.' This is
where the stock firmware resides. To remove any traces of OpenWRT from
your router simply flash the OEM image at this point.

Note regarding dual system partitions
-------------------------------------
The vendor firmware and boot loader use a dual partition scheme. The boot
partition is decided by the bootImage U-boot environment variable: 0 for
the 1st partition, 1 for the 2nd.
OpenWrt does not support this scheme and will always use the first OS
partition. It will set bootImage to 0 during installation, making sure
the first partition is selected by the boot loader.
Also, because we can't be sure which partition is active to begin with, a
2-step flash process is used. We first flash an initramfs image, then
follow with a regular sysupgrade.
Installation:
Router (ALLY-R1900K)
1) Install the flashable initramfs image via the OEM web-interface.
(Alternatively, you can use the TFTP recovery method below.)
You can use WiFi or Ethernet.
The direct URL is: http://192.168.3.1/07_06_00_firmware.html
a. No login is needed, and you'll be in their setup wizard.
b. You might get a warning about not being connected to the Internet.
c. Towards the bottom of the page will be a section entitled "Or
Manually Upgrade Firmware from a File:" where you can manually choose
and upload a firmware file.
d: Click "Choose File", select the OpenWRT "initramfs" image and click
"Upload."
2) The Router will flash the OpenWrt initramfs image and reboot. After
booting, LuCI will be available on 192.168.1.1.
3) Log into LuCI as root; there is no password.
4) Optional (but recommended) is to backup the OEM firmware before
continuing; see process below.
5) Complete the Installation by flashing a full OpenWRT image. Note:
you may use the sysupgrade command line tool in lieu of the UI if
you prefer.
a. Choose System -> Backup/Flash Firmware.
b. Click "Flash Image..." under "Flash new firmware image"
c. Click "Browse..." and then select the sysupgrade file.
d. Click Upload to upload the sysupgrade file.
e. Important: uncheck "Keep settings and retain the current
configuration" for this initial installation.
f. Click "Continue" to flash the firmware.
g. The device will reboot and OpenWRT is installed.
Extender (ALLY-00X19K)
1) This device requires a TFTP recovery procedure to do an initial load
of OpenWRT. Start by configuring a computer as a TFTP client:
a. Install a TFTP client (server not necessary)
b. Configure an Ethernet interface to 192.168.1.x/24; don't use .1 or .6
c. Connect the Ethernet to the sole Ethernet port on the X19K.
2) Put the ALLY Extender in TFTP recovery mode.
a. Do this by pressing and holding the reset button on the bottom while
connecting the power.
b. As soon as the LED lights up green (roughly 2-3 seconds), release
the button.
3) Start the TFTP transfer of the Initramfs image from your setup machine.
For example, from Linux:
tftp -v -m binary 192.168.1.6 69 -c put initramfs.bin
4) The Extender will flash the OpenWrt initramfs image and reboot. After
booting, LuCI will be available on 192.168.1.1.
5) Log into LuCI as root; there is no password.
6) Optional (but recommended) is to backup the OEM firmware before
continuing; see process below.
7) Complete the Installation by flashing a full OpenWRT image. Note: you
may use the sysupgrade command line tool in lieu of the UI if you prefer.
a. Choose System -> Backup/Flash Firmware.
b. Click "Flash Image..." under "Flash new firmware image"
c. Click "Browse..." and then select the sysupgrade file.
d. Click Upload to upload the sysupgrade file.
e. Important: uncheck "Keep settings and retain the current
configuration" for this initial installation.
f. Click "Continue" to flash the firmware.
g. The device will reboot and OpenWRT is installed.
Backup the OEM Firmware:
-----------------------
There isn't any downloadable firmware for the ALLY devices on the Amped
Wireless web site. Reverting back to the OEM firmware is not possible
unless we have a backup of the original OEM firmware.
The OEM firmware may be stored on either /dev/mtd3 ("firmware") or
/dev/mtd6 ("oem"). We can't be sure which was overwritten with the
initramfs image, so backup both partitions to be safe.
1) Once logged into LuCI, navigate to System -> Backup/Flash Firmware.
2) Under "Save mtdblock contents," first select "firmware" and click
"Save mtdblock" to download the image.
3) Repeat the process, but select "oem" from the pull-down menu.
Revert to the OEM Firmware:
--------------------------
* U-boot TFTP:
Follow the TFTP recovery steps for the Extender, and use the
backup image.
* OpenWrt "Flash Firmware" interface:
Upload the backup image and select "Force update"
before continuing.

Installation:
Flash factory image through GUI.
This device has 2 partitions for the firmware called firmware and
alt_firmware. To successfully flash and boot the device, the device
should have been running from alt_firmware partition. To get the device
booted through alt_firmware partition, download the OEM firmware from
Linksys website and upgrade the firmware from web GUI. Once this is done,
flash the OpenWrt Factory firmware from web GUI.
Reverting to factory firmware:
1. Boot to 'alt_firmware'(where stock firmware resides) by doing one of
the following:
Press the "wps" button as soon as power LED turns on when booting.
(OR) Hard-reset the router consecutively three times to force it to
boot from 'alt_firmware'.
2. To remove any traces of OpenWRT from your router simply flash the OEM
image at this point.

Installation
There are two known options:
1) The Luci-based UI.
2) Press and hold the reset button during power up.
The router will request 'recovery.bin' from a TFTP server at
192.168.1.88.
Both options require a signed firmware binary.
The openwrt image supplied by cudy is signed and can be used to
install unsigned images.
R4 & R5 need to be shorted (0-100Ω) for the UART to work.

This patch adds support for TP-Link Archer C6U v1 (EU).
The device is also known in some market as Archer C6 v3.
This patch supports only Archer C6U v1 (EU).
Specifications:
--------------
* SoC: Mediatek MT7621AT 2C2T, 880MHz
* RAM: 128MB DDR3
* Flash: 16MB SPI NOR flash (Winbond 25Q128)
* WiFi 5GHz: Mediatek MT7613BEN (2x2:2)
* WiFi 2.4GHz: Mediatek MT7603EN (2x2:2)
* Ethernet: MT7630, 5x 1000Base-T.
* LED: Power, WAN, LAN, WiFi 2GHz and 5GHz, USB
* Buttons: Reset, WPS.
* UART: Serial console (115200 8n1), J1(GND:3)
* USB: One USB2 port.
Installation:
------------
Install the OpenWrt factory image for C6U is from the
TP-Link web interface.
1) Go to "Advanced/System Tools/Firmware Update".
2) Click "Browse" and upload the OpenWrt factory image:
openwrt-ramips-mt7621-tplink_archer-c6u-v1-squashfs-factory.bin.
3) Click the "Upgrade" button, and select "Yes" when prompted.
Recovery to stock firmware:
--------------------------
The C6U bootloader has a failsafe mode that provides a web
interface (running at 192.168.0.1) for reverting back to the
stock TP-Link firmware. The failsafe interface is triggered
from the serial console or on failed kernel boot. Unfortunately,
there's no key combination that enables the failsafe mode. This
gives us two options for recovery:
1) Recover using the serial console (J1 header).
The recovery interface can be selected by hitting 'x' when
prompted on boot.
2) Trigger the bootloader failsafe mode.
A more dangerous option is force the bootloader into
recovery mode by erasing the OpenWrt partition from the
OpenWrt's shell - e.g "mtd erase firmware". Please be
careful, since erasing the wrong partition can brick
your device.

Before this commit, it was assumed that mkhash is in the PATH. While
this was fine for the normal build workflow, this led to some issues if
make TOPDIR="$(pwd)" -C "$pkgdir" compile
was called manually. In most of the cases, I just saw warnings like this:
make: Entering directory '/home/.../package/gluon-status-page'
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
[...]
While these were only warnings and the package still compiled sucessfully,
I also observed that some package even fail to build because of this.
After applying this commit, the variable $(MKHASH) is introduced. This
variable points to $(STAGING_DIR_HOST)/bin/mkhash, which is always the
correct path.
