firmware-utils: mkfwimage: add support for Ubiquiti XC devices

2020-05-17T19:03:19Z

This commit adds support for Ubiquiti devices based on the XC board type, such as the PowerBeam 5AC 500. The factory binary structure is the same as the WA type. Signed-off-by: Roger Pueyo Centelles

firmware-utils: ptgen: add GPT support

2020-03-31T14:20:47Z

Add GPT support to ptgen, so we can generate EFI bootable images. Introduced two options: -g generate GPT partition table -G GUID use GUID for disk and increase last bit for all partitions We drop The alternate partition table to reduce size, This may cause problems when generate vmdk images or vdi images. We have to pad enough sectors when generate these images. Signed-off-by: 李国 [fixed compilation on macOS] Signed-off-by: Petr Štetiar

tplink-safeloader: update soft_ver for TP-Link Archer C6 v2 (EU)

2020-03-29T23:46:50Z

The last couple of TP-Link firmware releases for Archer C6 v2 (EU) have switched to version 1.2.x. Bump the soft_ver to "1.2.1" to allow firmware updates from the vendor web interface. TP-Link vendor firmware releases supported by this change: * Archer C6(EU)_V2_200110: soft_ver:1.2.1 Build 20200110 rel.60119 * Archer C6(EU)_V2_191014: soft_ver:1.2.0 Build 20191014 rel.33289 Signed-off-by: Georgi Vlaev

ath79: add support for TP-Link Archer C60 v3

2020-03-18T12:49:06Z

TP-Link Archer C60 v3 is a dual-band AC1350 router, based on Qualcomm/Atheros QCA9561 + QCA9886. It seems to be identical to the v2 revision, except that it lacks a WPS LED and has different GPIO for amber WAN LED. Specification: - 775/650/258 MHz (CPU/DDR/AHB) - 64 MB of RAM (DDR2) - 8 MB of FLASH (SPI NOR) - 3T3R 2.4 GHz - 2T2R 5 GHz - 5x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet - 6x LED, 2x button - UART header on PCB Flash instruction (WebUI): Download *-factory.bin image and upload it via the firmwary upgrade function of the stock firmware WebUI. Flash instruction (TFTP): 1. Set PC to fixed IP address 192.168.0.66 2. Download *-factory.bin image and rename it to tp_recovery.bin 3. Start a tftp server with the file tp_recovery.bin in its root directory 4. Turn off the router 5. Press and hold reset button 6. Turn on router with the reset button pressed and wait ~15 seconds 7. Release the reset button and after a short time the firmware should be transferred from the tftp server 8. Wait ~30 second to complete recovery While TFTP works for OpenWrt images, my device didn't accept the only available official firmware "Archer C60(EU)_V3.0_190115.bin". In contrast to earlier revisions (v2), the v3 contains the (same) MAC address twice, once in 0x1fa08 and again in 0x1fb08. While the partition-table on the device refers to the latter, the firmware image contains a different partition-table for that region: name device firmware factory-boot 0x00000-0x1fb00 0x00000-0x1fa00 default-mac 0x1fb00-0x1fd00 0x1fa00-0x1fc00 pin 0x1fd00-0x1fe00 0x1fc00-0x1fd00 product-info 0x1fe00-0x1ff00 0x1fd00-0x1ff00 device-id 0x1ff00-0x20000 0x1ff00-0x20000 While the MAC address is present twice, other data like the PIN isn't, so with the partitioning from the firmware image the PIN on the device would actually be outside of its partition. Consequently, the patch uses the MAC location from the device (which is the same as for the v2). Signed-off-by: Adrian Schmutzler

mkrasimage: fix segmentation fault

2020-03-01T20:36:00Z

Code was attempting to determine the size of the file before it was actually known and allocating insufficient memory space. Images above a certain size caused a segmentation fault. Moving the calloc() ensured ensured that large images didn't result in a buffer overflow on memcpy().

ramips: add support for TP-Link RE200 v2

2020-02-01T18:41:51Z

TP-Link RE200 v2 is a wireless range extender with Ethernet and 2.4G and 5G WiFi with internal antennas. It's based on MediaTek MT7628AN+MT7610EN. Specifications -------------- - MediaTek MT7628AN (580 Mhz) - 64 MB of RAM - 8 MB of FLASH - 2T2R 2.4 GHz and 1T1R 5 GHz - 1x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet - UART header on PCB (57600 8n1) - 8x LED (GPIO-controlled), 2x button There are 2.4G and 5G LEDs in red and green which are controlled separately. MAC addresses ------------- The MAC address assignment matches stock firmware, i.e.: LAN : *:0D 2.4G: *:0E 5G : *:0F Installation ------------ Web Interface ------------- It is possible to upgrade to OpenWrt via the web interface. Simply flash the -factory.bin from OEM. In contrast to a stock firmware, this will not overwrite U-Boot. Serial console -------------- Opening the case is quite hard, since it is welded together. Rename the OpenWrt factory image to "test.bin", then plug in the device and quickly press "2" to enter flash mode (no line feed). Follow the prompts until OpenWrt is installed. Unfortunately, this devices does not offer a recovery mode or a tftp installation method. If the web interface upgrade fails, you have to open your device and attach serial console. Additonal notes --------------- It is possible to flash back to stock by using tplink-safeloader to create a sysupgrade image based on a stock update. After the first boot, it is necessary upgrade to another stock image, otherwise subsequent boots fail with LZMA ERROR 1 and you have to attach serial to recover the device.

tools: tplink-safeloader: update soft_ver for TP-Link Archer C6 v2 (EU)

2020-01-18T23:19:39Z

This patch updates "soft_ver" for TP-Link Archer C6 v2 (EU). It makes possible to upload OpenWrt on lastest vendor's firmware as the web-based updater checks for major.minor version during upload. Due to that on next major/minor version update TP-Link will stop us from using the web-based firmware update tool, so it will require a new patch on soft_ver to match major and minor version. Up to today's latest stock firmware the patch (major.minor.patch) version does not matters, that allows downgrade from 1.1.4 to 1.1.1 but do not allow downgrade from 1.1.X to 1.0.X.

ramips: add support for TP-Link RE305 v1

2020-01-18T18:39:05Z

Specification: SoC: MediaTek MT7628AN RAM: 64MiB Flash: 8MiB Wifi: - 2.4GHz: MT7628AN - 5GHz: MT7612EN LAN: 1x 10/100 Mbps Flash instructions: Flash factory image through stock firmware WEB UI. Back to stock is possible by using TFTP and stripping down the Firmware provided by TP-Link to a initramfs. The flash space between 0x650000 and 0x7f0000 is blank in the stock firmware so I left it out as well. Signed-off-by: Steffen Förster
