Avoid shipping ath10k board file in Mikrotik initram images
Most will only ever need to use these initram images once—to initially
load OpenWrt, but fix these images for more consistent Wi-Fi performance
between the initram and installed squashfs images.
OpenWrt BUILDBOT config ignores -cut packages in the initram images build.
This results in BUILDBOT initram images including the linux-firmware
qca4019 board-2.bin, and (initram image booted) Mikrotik devices loading
a generic BDF, rather than the intended BDF data loaded
from NOR as an api 1 board_file.
buildbot snapshot booted as initram image:
cat /etc/openwrt_version

Google WiFi (codename: Gale) is an IPQ4019-based AP, with 2 Ethernet
ports, 2x2 2.4+5GHz WiFi, 512 MB RAM, 4 GB eMMC, and a USB type C port.
In its stock configuration, it runs a Chromium OS-based system, but you
wouldn't know it, since you can only manage it via a "cloud" +
mobile-app system.
The "v2" label is coded into the bootloader, which prefers the
"google,gale-v2" compatible string. I believe "v1" must have been
pre-release hardware.
Note: this is *not* the Google Nest WiFi, released in 2019.
I include "factory.bin" support, where we generate a GPT-based disk
image with 2 partitions -- a kernel partition (using the custom "Chrome
OS kernel" GUID type) and a root filesystem partition. See below for
flashing instructions.
Sysupgrade is supported via recent emmc_do_upgrade() helper.
This is a subtarget because it enables different features
(FEATURES=boot-part rootfs-part) whose configurations don't make sense
in the "generic" target, and because it builds in a few USB drivers,
which are necessary for installation (installation is performed by
booting from USB storage, and so these drivers cannot be built as
modules, since we need to load modules from USB storage).
Flashing instructions
=====================
Documented here:
https://openwrt.org/inbox/toh/google/google_wifi
Note this requires booting from USB storage.
Features
========
I've tested:
* Ethernet, both WAN and LAN ports
* eMMC
* USB-C (hub, power-delivery, peripherals)
* LED0 (R/G/B)
* WiFi (limited testing)
* SPI flash
* Serial console: once in developer mode, console can be accessed via
the USB-C port with SuzyQable, or other similar "Closed Case
Debugging" tools:
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/third_party/hdctools/+/master/docs/ccd.md#suzyq-suzyqable
* Sysupgrade
Not tested:
* TPM
Known not working:
* Reboot: this requires some additional TrustZone / SCM
configuration to disable Qualcomm's SDI. I have a proposal upstream,
and based on IRC chats, this might be acceptable with additional DT
logic:
[RFC PATCH] firmware: qcom_scm: disable SDI at boot
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-msm/20200721080054.2803881-1-computersforpeace@gmail.com/
* SMP: enabling secondary CPUs doesn't currently work using the stock
bootloader, as the qcom_scm driver assumes newer features than this
TrustZone firmware has. I posted notes here:
[RFC] qcom_scm: IPQ4019 firmware does not support atomic API?
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-msm/20200913201608.GA3162100@bDebian/
* There's a single external button, and a few useful internal GPIO
switches. I haven't hooked them up.
The first two are fixed with subsequent commits.
Additional notes
================
Much of the DTS is pulled from the Chrome OS kernel 3.18 branch, which
the manufacturer image uses.
Note: the manufacturer bootloader knows how to patch in calibration data
via the wifi{0,1} aliases in the DTB, so while these properties aren't
present in the DTS, they are available at runtime:
# ls -l
/sys/firmware/devicetree/base/soc/wifi@a*/qcom,ath10k-pre-calibration-data
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 12064 Jul 15 19:11 /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/soc/wifi@a000000/qcom,ath10k-pre-calibration-data
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 12064 Jul 15 19:11 /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/soc/wifi@a800000/qcom,ath10k-pre-calibration-data
Ethernet MAC addresses are similarly patched in via the ethernet{0,1} aliases.

Back in the day, the board-2.bin came with ath10k-firmware-qca4019.
This changed with
commit c3b2efaf24b5 ("linux-firmware: ath10k: add board firmware packages")
which placed the board-2.bin into a separate package: ath10k-board-qca4019.
This was great, because it addressed one of the caveat of the original
ipq-wifi package:
commit fa03d441e96e ("firmware: add custom IPQ wifi board definitions")
| 2. updating ath10k-firmware-qca4019 will also replace
| the board-2.bin. For this cases the user needs to
| manually reinstall the wifi-board package once the
| ath10k-firmware-qca4019 is updated.
This could be extended further so that ipq-wifi packages
no longer use "install-override" and the various QCA4019
variants list the ath10k-board-qca4019 as a CONFLICT
package.

When support for Luma WRTQ-329ACN was added, the instructions for
flashing this device include using tools from uboot-envtools package.
Unfortunately the OpenWrt buildroot system omits packages from
DEVICE_PACKAGES when CONFIG_TARGET_MULTI_PROFILE,
CONFIG_TARGET_PER_DEVICE_ROOTFS, CONFIG_TARGET_ALL_PROFILES are set. In
result the official images are without tools mentioned in the
instruction. The workoround for the fashing would be installing
uboot-envtools when booted with initramfs image, but not always the
access to internet is available. The other method would be to issue the
necesary command in U-Boot environment but some serial terminals default
configuration don't work well with pasting lines longer than 80 chars.
Therefore add uboot-envtools to default packages, which adds really
small flash footprint to rootfs, where increased size usually is not an
issue.

MikroTik devices require the use of raw vmlinux out of the self
extracting compressed kernels.
They also require 4K sectors, kernel2minor, partition parser as well as
RouterBoard platform drivers.
So in order to not add unnecessary code to the generic sub target lets
introduce a MikroTik sub target.

Robert Marko reported an issue with the current imagebuilder images:
"Imagebuilder includes the new kmod-usb-dwc3-qcom USB driver

Serial:
WARNING: The serial port needs a TTL/RS-232 3V3 level converter!
The Serial setting is 115200-8-N-1. The board has an unpopulated
1x4 0.1" header. The pinout (VDD, RX, GND, TX) is printed on the
PCB right next to the connector.
U-Boot Note: The ethernet driver isn't always reliable and can sometime
time out... Don't worry, just retry.
Access via the serial console is required. As well as a working
TFTP-server setup and the initramfs image. (If not provided, it
has to be built from the OpenWrt source. Make sure to enable
LZMA as the compression for the INITRAMFS!)
To install the image permanently, you have to do the following
steps in the listed order.
1. Open up the router.
There are four phillips screws hiding behind the four plastic
feets on the underside.
2. Connect the serial cable (See notes above)
3. Connect your router via one of the four LAN-ports (yellow)
to a PC which can set the IP-Address and ssh and scp from.
If possible set your PC's IPv4 Address to 192.168.1.70
(As this is the IP-Address the Router's bootloader expects
for the tftp server)
4. power up the router and enter the u-boot
choose option 1 to upload the initramfs image. And follow
through the ipv4 setup.
Wait for your router's status LED to stop blinking rapidly and
glow just blue. (The LAN LED should also be glowing blue).
3. Connect to the OpenWrt running in RAM
The default IPv4-Address of your router will be 192.168.1.1.
1. Copy over the openwrt-sysupgrade.bin image to your router's
temporary directory
# scp openwrt-sysupgrade.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp
2. ssh from your PC into your router as root.
# ssh root@192.168.1.1
The default OpenWrt-Image won't ask for a password. Simply hit the Enter-Key.
Once connected...: run the following commands on your temporary installation
3. delete the "jffs2" ubi partition to make room for your new root partition
# ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 --name=jffs2
4. install OpenWrt on the NAND Flash.
# sysupgrade -v /tmp/openwrt-sysupgrade.bin
- This will will automatically reboot the router -
