Zip always try to generate new encryption header depending on execution
time and process id, which is far from being reproducible. This commit
changes the zip srand() seed to a predictable value to generate
reproducible random bytes for the encryption header. This will compromise
the goal of secure archive encryption, but it would not be a big problem
for our purpose.

our "SHELL=/usr/bin/env bash" usage.

Starting with v3 of the vendor firmware for the TP-Link EAP235-Wall v1,
downgrades to firmware versions below v3 as not allowed. Since OpenWrt
uses version 0.0.0 as a default, this causes the factory install to fail
on devices with a recent firmware. This failure is associated by the
following message on the device's serial console:
EAP235/230-Wall forbid fw reverted from 3.x.x to lower version!
Vendor firmware (v3) also uses build and release numbers to compare
images, so identical version numbers are very unlikely to cause issues.
Bump the firmware version to 3.0.0 to ensure users can install OpenWrt
on their devices.

Before recent changes to the mtdsplit driver,
the uImage parser for OKLI only supported images
that started exactly on an eraseblock boundary.
The mtdsplit parser for uImage now supports identifying images
with any magic number value
and at any offset from the eraseblock boundary
using DTS properties to define those values.
So, it is no longer necessary to use fixed sizes

* USB: One USB2 port.
Installation:
------------
Install the OpenWrt factory image for C6U is from the
TP-Link web interface.
1) Go to "Advanced/System Tools/Firmware Update".
2) Click "Browse" and upload the OpenWrt factory image:
openwrt-ramips-mt7621-tplink_archer-c6u-v1-squashfs-factory.bin.
3) Click the "Upgrade" button, and select "Yes" when prompted.
Recovery to stock firmware:
--------------------------
The C6U bootloader has a failsafe mode that provides a web
interface (running at 192.168.0.1) for reverting back to the
stock TP-Link firmware. The failsafe interface is triggered
from the serial console or on failed kernel boot. Unfortunately,
there's no key combination that enables the failsafe mode. This
gives us two options for recovery:
1) Recover using the serial console (J1 header).
The recovery interface can be selected by hitting 'x' when
prompted on boot.
2) Trigger the bootloader failsafe mode.
A more dangerous option is force the bootloader into
recovery mode by erasing the OpenWrt partition from the
OpenWrt's shell - e.g "mtd erase firmware". Please be
careful, since erasing the wrong partition can brick
your device.

Recovery page can be activated from serial console only.
Press 'x' while u-boot is starting
Note: TFTP boot can be activated only from u-boot serial console.
Device recovery address: 192.168.0.1
Thanks to: Frankis for Randmon MAC address fix.

This adjusts the Makefile to use the new option to turn off the
doc builds. It will not cause any problems except a warning
about unused options if combined with a ccache source missing
the upstream patch.
Since a config setting is required to re-enable the doc build this
is equivalent to unconditionally disabling the docs if the config
setting is not created.

The ZyXEL NR7101 prepend an additional header to U-Boot images. This
header use the TRX magic 0x30524448 (HDR0), but is incompatible with
TRX images.
This code is reverse-engineered based on matching 32 bit numbers
found in the header with lengths and different checksum
calculations of the vendor images found on the device. The result
was matched against the validation output produced by the
bootloader to name the associated header fields.
Example bootloader validation output:
Zyxel TRX Image 1 --> Found! Header Checksum OK
============ZyXEL header information==================
chipId : MT7621A
boardId : NR7101
modelId : 07 01 00 01
kernel_len : (14177560)
kernelChksum : (0x8DD31F69)
swVersionInt : 1.00(ABUV.0)D1
swVersionExt : 1.00(ABUV.0)D1
Zyxel TRX Image 2 --> Found! Header Checksum OK
============ZyXEL header information==================
chipId : MT7621A
boardId : NR7101
modelId : 07 01 00 01
kernel_len : (14176660)
kernelChksum : (0x951A7637)
swVersionInt : 1.00(ABUV.0)D0
swVersionExt : 1.00(ABUV.0)D0
=================================================
Check image validation:
Image1 Header Magic Number --> OK
Image2 Header Magic Number --> OK
Image1 Header Checksum --> OK
Image2 Header Checksum --> OK
Image1 Data Checksum --> OK
Image2 Data Checksum --> OK
Image1 Stable Flag --> Stable
Image1 Try Counter --> 0
Image1: OK
Image2: OK
The coverage and algorithm for the kernelChksum field is unknown.
This field is not validated by the bootloader or the OEM firmware
upgrade tool. It is therefore set to a static value for now.
The swVersion fields contain free form string values. The OEM firmware
use ZyXEL structured version numbers as shown above. The strings are
not interpreted or validated on boot, so they can be repurposed for
anything we want the bootloader to display to the user. But the OEM
web GUI fails to flash images with freeform strings.
The purpose of the other strings in the header is not known. The
values appear to be static. We assume they are fixed for now, until
we have other examples. One of these strings is the platform name,
which is taken as an input parameter for support other members of
the device family.

Add "-i" option for reading & displaying firmware info. First it lists
in-firmware partitions ("fwup-ptn"). Then it checks for human
understandable partitions and prints data found in each of them.
This new feature is meant for development & debug purposes.

The old code didn't make sense as it was using "len" variable which was
guaranteed to be always 0. Loop right above broken code is:
while (len > 0) { }
With this recent ALIGN macro fix this resulted in subtracting block size
from 0 and calling write_out_padding() with a negative length.
To calculate amount of bytes needed for padding & alignment it should be
enough to use % 4.

Currently it's not possible to flash factory images on devices shipped
with vendor firmware versions 1.1.0 Build 20201120 rel. 50406 (published
2020-12-22):
(curFw_ver, newFw_ver) == (1.1, 1.0) [NM_Error](nm_checkSoftVer) 00848: Firmwave not supports, check failed.
[NM_Error](nm_checkUpdateContent) 01084: software version dismatched
[NM_Error](nm_buildUpgradeStruct) 01188: checkUpdateContent failed.
They've even following note in release notes:
Note: You will be unable to downgrade to the previous firmware version
after updating this firmware.
This version check in vendor firmware is implemented in
/usr/bin/nvrammanager binary likely as following C code[1]:
sscanf(buf, "%d.%d.%*s",&upd_fw_major, &upd_fw_minor);
...
if (((int)upd_fw_major < (int)cur_fw_major) ||
((ret = 1, cur_fw_major == upd_fw_major && (upd_fw_minor < (int)cur_fw_minor)))) {
ret = 0;
printf("[NM_Error](%s) %05d: Firmwave not supports, check failed.\r\n\r\n","nm_checkSoftVer" ,0x350);
}
...
return ret;
So in order to fix this and make it future proof it should be enough to
ship our factory firmware images with major version 7 (lucky number).
Tested on latest firmware version 1.1.2 Build 20210125 rel.37999:
Firmwave supports, check OK.
(curFw_ver, newFw_ver) == (1.1, 7.0) check firmware ok!

bcm4908img is a tool managing BCM4908 platform images. It's used for
creating them as well as checking, modifying and extracting data from.
It's required by both: host (for building firmware images) and target
(for sysupgrade purposes). Make it a host/target package.

For flashing it individually (writing to designed MTD partition) we want

It's much easier to operate on BCM4908 image data with absolute offset

This adds support for accessing bootfs JFFS2 partition in the BCM4908
image. Support includes:
1. Listing files
2. Renaming file (requires unchanged name length)
Above commands are useful for flashing BCM4908 images which by defualt
come with cferom.000 file and require renaming it.
