The Huasifei WH3000 eMMC model (aka Fudy MT3000) is a Wi-Fi 6 5G
cellular router based on MediaTek MT7981A SoC.
Specifications:
SoC: Filogic 820 MT7981A (1.3GHz)
RAM: DDR4 1GB
Flash: eMMC 8G
WiFi: 2.4GHz and 5GHz with 3 antennas
Ethernet:
1x WAN (10/100/1000M)
1x LAN (10/100/1000/2500M)
USB: 1x USB 3.0 port
UART: 3.3V, TX, RX, GND / 115200 8N1
Installation via U-Boot rescue:
Connect to the GbE eth port, then press and hold reset button while
booting the device. Wait for the Internet led to blink 5 times,
release reset button. The rescue page is accessible via http://192.168.1.1
Select the OpenWrt sysupgrade image and start upgrade.
Wait for the router to flash new firmware and reboot.
The manufacturer Cudy usually releases signed openwrt firmware, to
facilitate the migration from the proprietary version to the official
versions of openwrt. In contact with the manufacturer tells me that only
releases the firmware of the WR3000H if and only if
there is an official version. With this proposal I pretend to have an
initial operative version so that they do their part, and facilitate to
the users the possibility of using openwrt. In the present state, it is
only possible to use this firmware by uploading and installing it with
UART connection.

The nand partition layout from vendor is slightly diferent from "standard".
The FIP partition starts at 0x3c0000 be carefull with BL2 to BL31.
The UBI partition start at 0x5c0000 be carefull.
DO NOT OVERWRITE bdinfo partition it contains hardware MAC definition
Layout is start-end (not start size)
- 0x000000000000-0x000007800000 : "nmbm0"
- 0x000000000000-0x000000100000 : "bl2"

Specification:
- MT7986 CPU using 2.4GHz and 5GHz WiFi (both AX)
- MT7531 switch
- 512MB RAM
- 128MB NAND flash (MX35LF1GE4AB-Z4I) with two UBI partitions with identical size
- 1 multi color LED (red, green, blue, white) connected via GCA230718 (Same as D-Link M30 A1)
- 3 buttons (WPS, reset, LED on/off)
- 1x 2.5 Gbit WAN port with Maxlinear GPY211C
- 4x 1 Gbit LAN ports
Disassembly:
- There are five screws at the bottom: 2 under the rubber feet, 3 under the label.
- After removing the screws, the white plastic part can be shifted out of the blue part.
- Be careful because the antennas are mounted on the side and the top of the white part.
Serial Interface
- The serial interface can be connected to the 4 pin holes next to/under the antenna cables.
- Note that there is another set of 4 pin holes on the side of the board, it's not used.
- Pins (from front to rear):
- 3.3V (do not connect)
- TX
- RX
- GND
- Settings: 115200, 8N1
MAC addresses:
- MAC address is stored in partition "Odm" at offset 0x81 (for example XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:52)
- MAC address on the device label is ODM + 1 (for example XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:53)
- WAN MAC is the one from the ODM partition (for example XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:52)
- LAN MAC is the one from the ODM partition + 1 (for example XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:53)
- WLAN MAC (2.4 GHz) is the one from the ODM partition + 2 (for example (XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:54)
- WLAN MAC (5 GHz) is the one from the ODM partition + 5 (for example (XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:57)
Flashing via OEM web interface:
- Currently not supported because image crypto is not known
Flashing via recovery web interface:
- This is only working if the first partition is active because recovery images are always flashed to the active partition and OpenWrt can only be executed from the first partition
- Use a Chromium based browser, otherwise firmware upgrade might not work
- Recovery web interface is accessible via 192.168.200.1 after keeping the reset button pressed during start of the device until the LED blinks red
- Upload the recovery image, this will take some time. LED will continue flashing red during the update process
- The after flashing, the recovery web interface redirects to http://192.168.0.1. This can be ignored. OpenWrt is accessible via 192.168.1.1 after flashing
- If the first partition isn't the active partition, OpenWrt will hang during the boot process. In this case:
- Download the recovery image from https://github.com/RolandoMagico/openwrt/releases/tag/M60-Recovery-UBI-Switch (UBI switch image)
- Enable recovery web interface again and load the UBI switch image. This image works on the second partition of the M60
- OpenWrt should boot now as expected. After booting, flash the normal OpenWrt sysupgrade image (for example in the OpenWrt web interface)
- Flashing a sysupgrade image from the UBI switch image will make the first partition the active partition and from now on, default OpenWrt images can be used
Flashing via Initramfs:
- Before switching to OpenWrt, ensure that both partitions contain OEM firmware.
- This can be achieved by re-flashing the same OEM firmware version again via the OEM web interface.
- Flashing via OEM web interface will automatically flash the currently not active partition.
- Open router, connect serial interface
- Start a TFTP server at 192.168.200.2 and provide the initramfs image there
- When starting the router, select "7. Load Image" in U-Boot
- Settings for load address, load method can be kept as they are
- Specify host and router IP address if you use different ones than the default (Router 192.168.200.1, TFTP server 192.168.200.2)
- Enter the file name of the initramfs image
- Confirm "Run loaded data now?" question after loading the image with "Y"
- OpenWrt initramfs will start now
- Before flashing OpenWrt, create a backup of the "ubi" partition. It is required when reverting back to OEM
- Flash sysupgrade image to flash, during flashing the U-Boot variable sw_tryactive will be set to 0
- During next boot, U-Boot tries to boot from the ubi partition. If it fails, it will switch to the ubi1 partition
Reverting back to OEM:
- Boot the initramfs image as described in "Flashing via Initramfs" above
- Copy the backed up ubi partition to /tmp (e.g. by using SCP)
- Write the backup to the UBI partition: mtd write /tmp/OpenWrt.mtd4.ubi.bin /dev/mtd4
- Reboot the device, OEM firmware will start now

This commit adds OpenWrt U-Boot layout support for Routerich AX3000. The
aims:
1. Get open-source U-Boot;
2. Get maximum available free space in OpenWrt.
Install
-------
1. Copy OpenWrt ubootmod-bl31-uboot.fip, ubootmod-preloader.bin, to the
/tmp folder of the router using scp.
2. Make mtd partitions backups:
http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/luci/admin/system/flash -> Save mtdblock
contents
3. Install kmod-mtd-rw:
```
opkg update && opkg install kmod-mtd-rw
```
4. Write FIP and preloader:
```
insmod mtd-rw i_want_a_brick=1
mtd unlock BL2
mtd erase BL2
mtd write /tmp/ubootmod-preloader.bin BL2
mtd unlock FIP
mtd erase FIP
mtd write /tmp/ubootmod-bl31-uboot.fip FIP
```
5. Copy OpenWrt ubootmod-initramfs-recovery.itb to the tftp server root
with IP 192.168.1.254.
6. Reboot router:
```
reboot
```
U-Boot will automatically download from the tftp server and boot OpenWrt
initramfs system.
7. Copy OpenWrt ubootmod-squashfs-sysupgrade.itb to the /tmp dir of the
router using scp.
8. Run sysupgrade:
```
sysupgrade -n /tmp/squashfs-sysupgrade.itb
```
Recovery
--------
1. Place OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.itb image (with original name) on the
tftp server (IP: 192.168.1.254).
2. Press "reset" button and power on the router. After ~10 sec release the
button.
3. Use OpenWrt initramfs system for recovery.
BL2 and FIP recovery
--------------------
Use mtk_uartboot and UART connection if BL2 or FIP in UBI is destroyed:
Link: https://github.com/981213/mtk_uartboot
Return to stock:
----------------
1. Copy partition backups (BL2.bin and FIP.bin) to the /tmp dir of the
router using scp.
2. Install kmod-mtd-rw:
```
opkg update && opkg install kmod-mtd-rw
```
3. Restore stock U-Boot and reboot:
```
insmod mtd-rw i_want_a_brick=1
mtd unlock BL2
mtd erase BL2
mtd write /tmp/BL2.bin BL2
mtd unlock FIP
mtd erase FIP
mtd write /tmp/FIP.bin FIP
reboot
```
4. Open U-Boot web recovery, upload stock firmware image and start
upgrade.

This commit adds support for two variants of the already supported router
Acer Predator Connect W6: The Acer Predator Connect W6d (W6 without 6 GHz
wifi) and the Acer Connect Vero W6m (W6 without 2.5G eth1 port, usb3 port,
and the 6 on-board gpio RGB LEDs, and with a KTD2026 RGB LED controller
instead of the KTD2061 LED controller of the W6/W6d).
The device tree for the W6m refers to the KTD202x driver suggested in
PR #16860.
Patching target/linux/mediatek/filogic/base-files/lib/upgrade/platform.sh
removes the code repetition in (old) lines 121 to 124 on the occasion.
This is the last of four commits into which the original commit was split
to make reviews easier and more targeted.

In order to prepare for OpenWrt support other Acer W6 devices and to get
a step further to full hardware support for Acer Predator Connect W6, this
commit
- adjusts the product name ("Acer Predator Connect W6")
- updates gpio LED labels to function/color scheme
- show router status by using first rgb led instead of it's red color only
(blue: booting/failsafe mode; red: sysupgrade; green: running – was: red)
- changes switch/eth1 led configuration to reflect RX/TX activity and speed
(green: full 1Gbps/2.5Gbps speed; amber: lower speed; blink: RX/TX)
- shortens dummy dm-mod.create string in bootargs
- enables W6's i2c interface
This is the third of four commits into which the original commit was split
to make reviews easier and more targeted.

The GatoNetworks GDSP is a re-branded version of the R5000 5G Industrial
router from Yinghua Technologies.
The re-branded device comes with OpenWrt preinstalled, and an OpenWrt-based
U-Boot bootloader version. While the flash layout has been kept compatible
with the OpenWrt version found on the stock device (see [5]), the image format
changed, making a bootloader upgrade necessary.
Specifications:
SoC: Mediatek MT7981BA
RAM: 256MB
Flash: SPI-NOR 32 MiB (Winbond W25Q256)
WLAN: MT7976CN DBDC AX Wi-Fi
Switch: MT7531AE (4x LAN Gigabit ports, 1x WAN Gigabit port)
5G: Quectel RM520N modem
Watchdog: an external WDT connected to GPIO 6 is present and always running;
the built-in Mediatek watchdog is also present and effective, but
not used at the moment.
This porting has been tested only with 1x 5G modems installed (the device
supports up to two).
Installation:
Installation is possible via sysupgrade both in the stock device and
re-branded version. However, in the former case, updating the bootloader is
required.
OpenWrt-based U-Boot Bootloader installation
--------------------------------------------
The firmware flashed in the re-branded device at manifacturing time will
flash an OpenWrt-based U-Boot bootloader with some extra recovery features
(see [1]) at first boot.
To update the bootloader, you need to install the mtd-rw module and
insmod it:
insmod mtd-rw i_want_a_brick=1
Then update relevant flash partitions:
mtd erase u-boot-env
mtd erase BL2
mtd erase FIP
mtd write openwrt-mediatek-filogic-gatonetworks_gdsp-preloader.bin BL2
mtd write openwrt-mediatek-filogic-gatonetworks_gdsp-bl31-uboot.fip FIP
And reboot, making sure all previous commands ran succesfully.
If something goes wrong, you can recover your device via the mtk_uartboot
tool.
In my testing, it was possible to start the process even without (un)-plugging
the device, may be handy for remote recovery.
Installation from stock device and firmware
-------------------------------------------
To install vanilla OpenWrt in the stock device (R5000 5G Industrial router
from Yinghua Technologies) running the stock vendor firmware, you will need
to update your bootloader as described in previous section. Remember to use
-F (force upgrade) and -n (not keeping settings).
U-Boot Recovery
---------------
This procedure has been tested only with the OpenWrt-based U-boot bootloader.
Assign your system static IP address 192.168.1.1 and start a TFTP server. The
device will look for an initramfs image named
openwrt-mediatek-filogic-gatonetworks_gdsp-initramfs-kernel.bin
(so you may use openwrt/bin/targets/mediatek/filogic as root dir for your
TFTP server).
Power on the device while keeping the reset button pressed, until you see
a TFTP request from 192.168.1.10. Your environment will be restored to it's
default state.
MAC addresses assignment
------------------------
MAC addresses are assigned slightly differently than in stock firmware. In
particular, the 5 GHz Wi-Fi uses 2.4 GHZ MAC + 1, rather than reusing it with
LA bit set as done in stock firmware. This MAC address is allocated to the
device, so it can be used.
The 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi MAC address is the label MAC. LAN MAC is used to set the
special U-Boot environment ethaddr variable.
device MAC address U-Boot env variable factory partition offset
2.4 GHz Wi-Fi :84 wifi_mac 0x4
5.8 GHz Wi-Fi :85 not present not present
WAN :86 wan_mac 0x24
LAN :87 lan_mac 0x2A
Notes
-----
[1]: the OpenWrt-based U-Boot bootloader you will find installed in the
re-branded device is configured to request for the initramfs image via
TFTP for $gdsp_tftp_tries times before trying normal boot from NOR flash.
Setting this U-Boot environment variable to 0x0 will disable the feature,
which is not implemented in this patch.
[2]: the exposed UART port is connected to ttyS1; the ttyS0 console port is
not exposed.
[3]: the provided bootloader environment has no provision for operating on
BL2 and the FIP partitions. This is an intentional choice to make it
(slightly) more difficult to brick the device.
[4]: it seems GPIO 6 is used both for the "SYS" LED and external WDT.
[5] BL2 expects to find FIP payload at a fixed offset, so some constraints
apply.

The ImageBuilder when using the profile for the OpenWrt One has been
failing because the initramfs image included in the ubinized image could
not be found.
Fix that by using the staged initramfs instead when using the
ImageBuilder.
