[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH v3] ath79: add D-Link DIR-615 E4

Tue Dec 10 05:52:02 EST 2019


Specifications:

- FCC ID: KA2IR615E3
- SoC: MIPS32 24K 400 MHz Atheros AR7240
- RAM: 32 MiB DDR SDRAM ESMT M13S2561616A-5T
- Flash: 4 MiB NOR SPI Macronix MX25L3208E
- Wireless: AR9287 2.4 GHz 802.11n 2T2R, 2x RP-SMA connectors
- Ethernet: 5x 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet
- LEDs: 9x GPIO, 1x ath9k
- Buttons: 2x tactile switches
- UART: 3.3 V, 115200 8n1
- USB: simple hardware modification required, 1x USB 1.1 Full Speed


Partitioning notes:

Vendor firmware (based on CameoAP99) defines two additional partitions:
"mac" @0x3b0000, size 0x10000 and "lp" @0x3c0000, size 0x30000.

The "mac" partition stores LAN MAC address and hardware board name.
However, the vendor firmware uses addresses from "nvram" partition, and
the board name is used only for informational purposes in the Web
interface (included in the pages' header), not affecting the firmware
image check.

The "lp" partition is supposed to contain a "language pack" (which can
be used to add an additional language support to the Web interface) and
is flashed separately, using the vendor firmware upgrade page.

Since these partitions are absolutely useless for OpenWrt and
overwriting them doesn't prevent downgrading to obsolete vendor
firmware, this patch appends the valueable space to "firmware".


Installation instructions:

- Upgrade from OpenWrt ar71xx with "sysupgrade -f -n"
or
- Upload as a firmware update via the vendor Web-interface
or
- Connect UART and use "loady" to upload and run OpenWrt initramfs
  image, then sysupgrade from it (TFTP client doesn't work)
or
- Before powering up hold "reset" button and keep it pressed for about
  15 seconds after, then access fail safe Web server on 192.168.0.1 (the
  old uIP TCP/IP protocol stack is not compatible with modern Linux, the
  kernel, so you'll need to use some other OS to do this). Can be
  performed without a Web-browser too:
    curl http://192.168.0.1/cgi/index \
      -F Send=@openwrt-ath79-tiny-dlink_dir-615-e4-squashfs-factory.bin

Changes for v3:

    - Add specifications and installation instructions to commit message
    - Remove useless comments from DTS, other minor changes
    - Change LEDs back to using "d-link" name
    - Move ath9k LED to a dedicated section

Changes for v2:

    - Remove "rev." from board name
    - Use a single DTS file; whoever has hardware to port this to the other
      similar devices can easily unsplit it later
    - Fix label_mac handling (as it's not available in DT)
    - Rename gpio_leds to leds DTS section
    - Use boardname for LEDs and merge the setup code with buffalo,whr-g301n
    - Use 33 MHz for SPI clock (max frequency for READ command acconding to the
      chip datasheet)
    - Make "firmware" partition 0x3b0000 (3776 kiB) long, covering "mac" and "lp"
