Root access over serial line in vendor firmware: root/sohoadmin.
Based on support in ar71xx target by: Piotr Dymacz <pepe2k@gmail.com>
Use the candelatech firmware for the QCA Wave-2 firmware.
The Qualcomm firmware used for the IPQ401x chip in OpenWrt in 22.03
is experiencing heavily degraded performance due to excessive
retransmits when using A-MSDU. Disabling VHT modes or switching to the
candelatech firmware circumvents this issue.
Apply the same to other Wave-2 platforms in order to keep consistency
with upstream.
Wave-1 chips do not support mesh modes with the -ct firmware, so keep
using the QCA firmware in their case.

Gone due to
commit 071cf7b20f ("Switch to Lua for target definitions")
Has prior been introduced as untested -> broken in
commit d586720c5c ("ar71xx-generic: add support for Ubiquiti NanoBeam M5")
Was commented out in the former commit.
Re-add mikrotik target
Note that previous images were generic ones and as such no migration
path is provided other than manually flashing the image via config-mode.
- [x] Must be flashable from vendor firmware
- [x] Web interface
- [ ] TFTP (untested, but possible according to OpenWrt wiki)
- [ ] Other: <specify>
- [x] Must support upgrade mechanism
- [x] Must have working sysupgrade
- [x] Must keep/forget configuration (`sysupgrade [-n]`, `firstboot`)
- [x] Gluon profile name matches autoupdater image name
(`lua -e 'print(require("platform_info").get_image_name())'`)
- [x] Reset/WPS/... button must return device into config mode
- [x] Primary MAC address should match address on device label (or packaging)
(https://gluon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/dev/hardware.html#notes)
- When re-adding a device that was supported by an earlier version of Gluon, a
factory reset must be performed before checking the primary MAC address, as
the setting from the old version is not reset otherwise.
- Wired network
- [x] should support all network ports on the device
- [x] must have correct port assignment (WAN/LAN)
- On devices supplied via PoE, there is usually no explicit WAN/LAN labeling on the hardware.
The PoE input should be the WAN port in this case.
- Wireless network (if applicable)
- [x] Association with AP must be possible on all radios
- [x] Association with 802.11s mesh must work on all radios
- [x] AP+mesh mode must work in parallel on all radios
- LED mapping
- Power/system LED
- [x] Lit while the device is on
- [x] Should display config mode blink sequence
(https://gluon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/features/configmode.html)
- Radio LEDs
- [x] Should map to their respective radio
- [x] Should show activity
- Switch port LEDs
- [x] Should map to their respective port (or switch, if only one led present)
- [x] Should show link state and activity
Remove support for the TP-Link WDR4900, as it us currently unable to
load its kernel sure to factory bootloader constraints.
Progress on this topic is tracked in #2491
Gone due to
commit 45c84a117b ("ar71xx: drop target")
Changed subtarget in between, similar change in
commit bed66fa248 ("ath79: move GL.iNet GL-AR750S to NAND subtarget")
This adds support for the Sophos RED 15w rev.1 gateway.
It is a branch-office SD-WAN device based on the P1014 networking SoC.

Flashing instructions:
======================
Various methods can be used to install the actual image on the flash.
Two easy ones are:
ap51-flash
----------
The tool ap51-flash (https://github.com/ap51-flash/ap51-flash) should be
used to transfer the image to the u-boot when the device boots up.
initramfs from TFTP
-------------------
The serial console must be used to access the u-boot shell during bootup.
It can then be used to first boot up the initramfs image from a TFTP server
(here with the IP 192.168.1.21):
setenv serverip 192.168.1.21
setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
tftpboot 0c00000 <filename-of-initramfs-kernel>.bin && bootm $fileaddr
The actual sysupgrade image can then be transferred (on the LAN port) to the
device via
scp <filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/
On the device, the sysupgrade must then be started using
sysupgrade -n /tmp/<filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin

Flashing instructions:
======================
Various methods can be used to install the actual image on the flash.
Two easy ones are:
ap51-flash
----------
The tool ap51-flash (https://github.com/ap51-flash/ap51-flash) should be
used to transfer the image to the u-boot when the device boots up.
initramfs from TFTP
-------------------
The serial console must be used to access the u-boot shell during bootup.
It can then be used to first boot up the initramfs image from a TFTP server
(here with the IP 192.168.1.21):
setenv serverip 192.168.1.21
setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
tftpboot 0c00000 <filename-of-initramfs-kernel>.bin && bootm $fileaddr
The actual sysupgrade image can then be transferred (on the LAN port) to
the device via
scp <filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/
On the device, the sysupgrade must then be started using
sysupgrade -n /tmp/<filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin
Gluon image name change
=======================
The device had the image name "openmesh-om2pv2" in older versions of Gluon.
This had to be changed with the new name in the device trees of the ath79
device tree.
Device specifications:
======================
* Qualcomm/Atheros AR7240 rev 2
* 350/350/175 MHz (CPU/DDR/AHB)
* 32 MB of RAM
* 16 MB of SPI NOR flash
- 2x 7 MB available; but one of the 7 MB regions is the recovery image
* 2x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
* 1T1R 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi
* 6x GPIO-LEDs (3x wifi, 2x ethernet, 1x power)
* 1x GPIO-button (reset)
* external h/w watchdog (enabled by default)
* TTL pins are on board (arrow points to VCC, then follows: GND, TX, RX)
* 2x fast ethernet
- eth0
+ 18-24V passive POE (mode B)
+ used as WAN interface
- eth1
+ builtin switch port 4
+ used as LAN interface
* 12-24V 1A DC
* external antenna
The device itself requires the mtdparts from the uboot arguments to
properly boot the flashed image and to support dual-boot (primary +
recovery image). Unfortunately, the name of the mtd device in mtdparts is
still using the legacy name "ar7240-nor0" which must be supplied using the
Linux-specfic DT parameter linux,mtd-name to overwrite the generic name
"spi0.0".

On the device, the sysupgrade must then be started using
sysupgrade -n /tmp/<filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin
For regular use, a full disk image is always recommended, as it is
required to support sysupgrades.
During development or for automated tests, separate images for the
kernel and rootfs may be useful to pass additional kernel cmdline or use
nfsroot/virtiofs. The rootfs is only available as a (squashfs)
filesystem image, not as a TAR archive (the TAR archive in OpenWrt's bin
directory does not contain DEVICE_PACKAGES, so it is missing most of
Gluon's packages).
