Add u-boot support based on the kernel dts introduced in d1016446 and
the GL-MT6000 u-boot support in fe10f974.
The pcie-mediatek-gen3 kernel driver doesn't like hotplug, so to work in
PCIe mode, the 5G modem on this device needs to be switched on by u-boot
before starting the kernel. Include an init_modem step in the boot_system
action to set the relevant gpios. (The factory bootloader does the same,
using Mediatek SDK-specific gpio_power_clr and gpio_pull_up.)
Ideally the modem would be started using gpio-hog in the device tree, but
this will need to wait until mediatek gpio-hog support is fixed upstream:
https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/6ef2583e85eea60560d7776377d662779e7c44e5.1722419839.git.chris@arachsys.com/
The bootloader can be replaced using the built-in web interface of the
factory bootloader. Hold the reset button for five seconds while powering
on the device and it will boot into a recovery http server.
http://192.168.1.1/uboot.html and http://192.168.1.1/bl2.html can then
be used to upload openwrt-mediatek-filogic-glinet_gl-x3000-bl31-uboot.fip
and openwrt-mediatek-filogic-glinet_gl-x3000-preloader.bin respectively.
Alternatively, from a root shell on the running system, unlock the boot
partition with
echo 0 >/sys/block/mmcblk0boot0/force_ro
then write openwrt-mediatek-filogic-glinet_gl-x3000-bl31-uboot.fip to
/dev/mmcblk0p4 and openwrt-mediatek-filogic-glinet_gl-x3000-preloader.bin

Known issue
-----------
2.4 GHz WLAN doesn't start with mt76 driver.
Probable reason:
Original Netis N6 EEPROM contains wrong MT_EE_WIFI_CONF value (0xd2).
Other routers with the same WLAN hardware (e.g., Routerich AX1800)
have MT_EE_WIFI_CONF = 0x92.
Workaround (already included in this commit):
Extract EEPROM to a file at the first time boot and change
MT_EE_WIFI_CONF (offset 0x190) value from 0xd2 to 0x92. See
/etc/hotplug.d/firmware/11-mt76-caldata for details.

Firmware:
The vendor firmware is a fork of OpenWrt (Reboot) with a kernel version
4.4.93. The flash is arranged as below and there is a dual boot
mechanism alternating between rootfs_0 and rootfs_1.
+-------+------+------+-----------+-----------+
| | env1 | env2 | rootfs_0 | rootfs_1 |
| +------+------+-----------+-----------+
| | UBI volumes |
+-------+-------------------------------------+
|U-Boot | UBI |
+-------+-------------------------------------+
|mtd0 | mtd1 |
+-------+-------------------------------------+
| NAND |
+---------------------------------------------+
In OpenWrt rootfs_0 will be used as a boot partition that will contain the
kernel and the dtb. The squashfs rootfs and overlay are standard OpenWrt
behaviour.
+-------+------+------+-----------+--------+------------+
| | env1 | env2 | rootfs_0 | rootfs | rootfs_data|

|U-Boot | UBI |
+-------+-----------------------------------------------+
|mtd0 | mtd1 |
+-------+-----------------------------------------------+
| NAND |
+-------------------------------------------------------+
U-boot:
With proper serial access booting can be halted to U-boot by pressing any
key. TFTP and flash writes are available, but only the first one has been
tested.
NOTE: Recovery mode can be accessed by holding down the reset button while
powering on the device. The led 'Update' will show a solid green light
once ready. A web server will be running at 192.168.1.1:80 and it will
allow flashing a firmware package. You can cycle between rootfs_0 and
rootfs_1 by pressing the reset button once.
Root password:
With the vendor web UI create a backup of your settings and download the
archive to your computer. Within the archive in the file
/etc/shadow replace the password hash for root with that of a password you
know. Restore the configuration with the vendor web UI and you will have
changed the root password.
SSH access:
You might need to enable the SSH service for LAN interface as by default
it's enabled for WAN only.
Installing OpenWrt:
With the vendor web UI install the OpenWrt factory image. Alternatively,
ssh to the device and use sysupgrade -n from cli.
Finalize by installing the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to get a fully
functioning system.
Reverting to the vendor firmware:
Boot with OpenWrt initramfs image
- Remove volumes rootfs_0, rootfs and rootfs_data and create vendor
volumes.
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -n 2
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -n 3
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -n 4
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N rootfs_0 -S 990
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N rootfs_1 -S 990
Power off and enter to the U-boot recovery to install the vendor
firmware.
Known issues:
- MACs for wifi are stored in currently unknown place but it seems
to persist over power-off. They might be stored on the chip.

Huawei AP6010DN is a dual-band, dual-radio 802.11a/b/g/n 2x2 MIMO
enterprise access point with one Gigabit Ethernet port and PoE
support.
Hardware highlights:
- CPU: AR9344 SoC at 480MHz
- RAM: 128MB DDR2
- Flash: 32MB SPI-NOR
- Wi-Fi 2.4GHz: AR9344-internal radio
- Wi-Fi 5GHz: AR9580 PCIe WLAN SoC
- Ethernet: 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet through Atheros AR8035 PHY
- PoE: yes
- Standalone 12V/2A power input
- Serial console externally available through RJ45 port
- External watchdog: CAT706SVI (1.6s timeout)
Serial console:
9600n8 (9600 baud, no stop bits, no parity, 8 data bits)
MAC addresses:
Each device has 32 consecutive MAC addresses allocated by
the vendor, which don't overlap between devices.
This was confirmed with multiple devices with consecutive
serial numbers.
The MAC address range starts with the address on the label.
To be able to distinguish between the interfaces,
the following MAC address scheme is used:
- eth0 = label MAC
- radio0 (Wi-Fi 2.4GHz) = label MAC + 1
- radio1 (Wi-Fi 5GHz) = label MAC + 2
Installation:
0. Connect some sort of RJ45-to-USB adapter to "Console" port of the AP
1. Power up the AP
2. At prompt "Press f or F to stop Auto-Boot in 3 seconds",
do what they say.
Log in with default admin password "admin@huawei.com".
3. Boot the OpenWrt initramfs from TFTP using the hidden script "run ramboot".
Replace IP address as needed:
> setenv serverip 192.168.1.10
> setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
> setenv rambootfile openwrt-ath79-generic-huawei_ap6010dn-initramfs-kernel.bin
> saveenv
> run ramboot
4. Optional but recommended as the factory firmware cannot be downloaded publicly:
Back up contents of "firmware" partition using the web interface or ssh:
$ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd11 > huawei_ap6010dn_fw_backup.bin
5. Run sysupgrade using sysupgrade image. OpenWrt
shall boot from flash afterwards.
Return to factory firmware (using firmware upgrade package downloaded from non-public Huawei website):
1. Start a TFTP server in the directory where
the firmware upgrade package is located
2. Boot to u-boot as described above
3. Install firmware upgrade package and format the config partitions:
> update system FatAP6X10XN_SOMEVERSION.bin
> format_fs
Return to factory firmware (from previously created backup):
1. Copy over the firmware partition backup to /tmp,
for example using scp
2. Use sysupgrade with force to restore the backup:
sysupgrade -F huawei_ap6010dn_fw_backup.bin
3. Boot AP to U-Boot as described above
Quirks and known issues:
- The stock firmware has a semi dual boot concept where the primary
kernel uses a squashfs as root partition and the secondary kernel uses
an initramfs. This dual boot concept is circumvented on purpose to gain
more flash space and since the stock firmware's flash layout isn't
compatible with mtdsplit.
- The external watchdog's timeout of 1.6s is very hard to satisfy
during bootup. This is why the GPIO15 pin connected to the watchdog input
is configured directly in the LZMA loader to output the AHB_CLK/2 signal
which keeps the watchdog happy until the wdt-gpio kernel driver takes
over. Because it would also take too long to read the whole kernel image
from flash, the uImage header only includes the loader which then reads
the kernel image from flash after GPIO15 is configured.

So thanks to csharper2005 for doing all the groundwork.

Disassemble: rm the 2 screws at the bottom and the one at the backside.
un-clip the case starting at the edge above the LEDs.
Installation (UART)
-------------------
1. Place OpenWrt initramfs image on tftp server with IP 192.168.1.2
2. Attach UART, switch on the router and interrupt the boot process by
pressing 'Ctrl-C'
3. Load and run OpenWrt initramfs image:
tftpboot openwrt-mediatek-filogic-tplink_re6000xd-initramfs-kernel.bin bootm
4. Run 'sysupgrade -n' with the sysupgrade OpenWrt image
Notice: while I was successfull at activating ssh (as described
here:
https://www.lisenet.com/2023/gaining-ssh-access-to-tp-link-re200-wi-fi-range-extender/)
Unfortunately I haven't found the correct root password.
Looks like they are using a static password
(md5crypt, salt + 21 characters) that is not the web
interface admin password.
The TP-LINK RE900XD looks like the very same device,
according to the pictures and the firmware.
But I haven't checked if the OpenWrt firmware works as well
on that device.
The second ubi partition (ubi1) is empty and there is no known
dual-partition mechanism, neither in u-boot nor in the stock firmware.
