TP-Link TL-WR1043N v5 appears to be identical to the TL-WR1043ND v4,
except that the USB port has been removed and there is no longer a
removable antenna option. It also has different partitioning scheme.
The software is more in line with the Archer series in that it uses a
nested bootloader scheme.
(This has been adapted from the OpenWrt Wiki page)
<https://openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-wr1043nd>
Installation on HW rev.5:
Factory firmware can be installed via the WEB interface.
Alternatively, it is also possible to use a TFTP server
for recovery purposes:
- Rename OpenWRT or original firmware to WR1043v5_tp_recovery.bin
- Set static IP of your PC to *192.168.0.66*
- Router will obtain IP 192.168.0.86 for a few seconds while
loading, when reset button pressed at power On.
And finally, there's always u-boot access through the UART.

1. Ensure firmware version v8.5.0.36727 is installed. Up/downgrade to this exact version.
2. Patch fwupdate.real binary using `hexdump -Cv /bin/ubntbox | sed 's/14 40 fe fe/00 00 00 00/g' | hexdump -R > /tmp/fwupdate.real`
3. Make the patched fwupdate.real binary executable using `chmod +x /tmp/fwupdate.real`
4. Copy the squashfs factory image to /tmp on the device
5. Flash OpenWRT using `/tmp/fwupdate.real -m <squashfs-factory image>`
6. Wait for the device to reboot

Support for the Nanostation M (XW) was added in 40530c8eb with board
name "nanostation-m-xw". The current image for the "Nanostation M"
uses "nano-m" as the board name.
This commit renames it to the full product name as it's used by all
other boards. The legacy boardname of the ar71xx target is added

jjPlus JA76PF2 (marketed as IntellusPro2) is a network embedded board.
Specification
SoC: Atheros AR7161
RAM: 64 MB DDR
Flash: 16 MB SPI NOR
Ethernet: 2x 10/100/1000 Mbps AR8316
LAN (CN11), WAN/PoE (CN6 - close to power barrel
connector, 48 V)
MiniPCI: 2x
LEDS: 4x, which 3 are GPIO controlled
Buttons: 2x GPIO controlled
Reset (SW1, closer to ethernet ports), WPS (SW2)
Serial: 1x (only RX and TX are wired)
baud: 115200, parity: none, flow control: none
Currently there is one caveat compared to ar71xx target images as the
MAC addresses are random on every reboot. To remedy this one needs to
store the WAN MAC address in RedBoot configuration. OpenWrt on first
boot, after flashing, will read out the address and assign proper ones
to both WAN and LAN ports. It is iportant to NOT keep the old
configuration when doing sysupgrade from ar71xx.
Upgrading from OpenWrt ar71xx image
1. Connect to serial port,
2. Download OpenWrt sysupgrade image to /tmp directory and flash it
with:
sysupgrade -n <openwrt_sysupgrade_image_name>
3. After writing new image OpenWrt will reboot, now interrupt boot
process and enter RedBoot (bootloader) command line by pressing
Ctrl+C,
4. Enter following commands (replace variable accordingly),
set_mac (to view MAC addresses)
alias ethaddr <wan_port_mac_adress>
(confirm storing the value by inputting y and pressing Enter)
reset
5. Now board should restart and boot OpenWrt with proper MAC addresses.
Installation
1. Prepare TFTP server with OpenWrt initramfs image,
2. Connect to WAN ethernet port,
3. Connect to serial port,
4. Power on the board and enter RedBoot (bootloader) command line by
pressing Ctrl+C,
5. Enter following commands (replace variables accordingly):
set_mac (to view MAC addresses)
alias ethaddr <wan_port_mac_address>
(confirm storing the value by inputting y and pressing Enter)
ip_adress -l <board_ip_adress>/24 -h <tftp_server_ip_adress>
load -r -b 0x80060000 <openwrt_initramfs_image_name>
exec -c ""
6. Now board should boot OpenWrt initramfs image,
7. Download OpenWrt sysupgrade image to /tmp directory and flash it
with:
sysupgrade <openwrt_sysupgrade_image_name>
8. Wait few minutes, after the D2 LED will stop blinking, the board
is ready for configuration.

In PR [1] introducing initial support for Ubiquiti RouterStation boards,
Mathias Kresin suggested to replace the combined sysupgrade image with
tarball generated by sysupgrade-tar.sh. This would simplify deployment
of sysupgrade as the kernel size (needed to update FIS partition) could
be simply calculated on the fly instead of reading value from combined
image header. Unfortunately this would break sysupgrade compatibility
between ar71xx image and ath79 image. Therefore this commit creates
migration path to use new sysuprade image, it adds code to accept both
of them at this moment. The plan is to keep it until new stable version
is released. Then the image recipe should be changed to new format and
compatibility code for old image removed.

It is unused by default and upstream is trying to remove it as it has
negative effects when the driver is under load. Upstream explanation:
netpoll: avoid capture effects for NAPI drivers
As diagnosed by Song Liu, ndo_poll_controller() can
be very dangerous on loaded hosts, since the cpu
calling ndo_poll_controller() might steal all NAPI
contexts (for all RX/TX queues of the NIC).
This capture, showing one ksoftirqd eating all cycles
can last for unlimited amount of time, since one
cpu is generally not able to drain all the queues under load.
It seems that all networking drivers that do use NAPI
for their TX completions, should not provide a ndo_poll_controller() :
Most NAPI drivers have netpoll support already handled
in core networking stack, since netpoll_poll_dev(
uses poll_napi(dev) to iterate through registered
NAPI contexts for a device.

While converting Nanostation M XW from current ar71xx code to ath79 I've
hit one issue, where the ethernet networking wasn't working, so I was
checking every bit in the networking setup path between ar71xx and
ath79.
I've came to the following code in ar71xx/mach-ubnt-xm.c:
static void __init ubnt_xw_init(void) {
...
ath79_setup_ar934x_eth_cfg(AR934X_ETH_CFG_MII_GMAC0 |
AR934X_ETH_CFG_MII_GMAC0_SLAVE);
...
}
Where this code is setting AR934X_ETH_CFG_MII_GMAC0_SLAVE bit in
AR934X_GMAC_REG_ETH_CFG register, but I couldn't find a way of setting
this bit from DTS, so this patch adds `mii-gmac0-slave` DTS property
which allows setting of this bit in `gmac-config`, which is then used in
Nanostation M XW DTS.

Signed-off-by: Chuanhong Guo <gch981213@gmail.com>
On ar933x and later chips, there are separated mac/mdio resets, but
resetting the entire gmac block with register values requires both
mac_reset and mdio_reset to be asserted together.
Add support for optional mdio reset so that we can do a full reset
if needed.
This patch also replaced deprecated devm_reset_control_get for
mac reset.
To use this feature, the following is needed:
1. drop "simple-mfd" compatible to register mdio0 after gmac init
so that mdio registers aren't reset after initialization.
2. move mdio reset from mdio-bus to its parent eth node.
NOTE: This can't be applied on gmac1 with builtin switch since we
haven't add a feature to defer probe if phy connection failed.

Flashing instructions:
The original firmware is based on OpenWrt so a sysupgrade image can be
installed via the stock web GUI. Settings from the original firmware
will be saved and restored on the new one, so a factory reset will be
needed. To do so, once the new firmware is flashed, enter into failsafe
mode by pressing the reset button several times during the boot
process, while while the WAN LED flashes, until it starts flashing
faster. Once in failsafe mode, perform a factory reset as usual.
The U-boot bootloader contains a recovery HTTP server to upload the
firmware. Push the reset button while powering the device on and
keep it pressed for >10 seconds. The recovery page will be at

UART: TX - GND - RX - VCC (From ethernet port)
115200n8 - 3.3V
Installation
------------
1. Connect to the device via UART.
2. Interrupt the U-Boot on power-on by pressing enter when prompted.
3. Connect you computer to one of the routers LAN ports.
Assign yourself the IP 192.168.31.10/24.
Copy the OpenWRT initramfs image to a tftp server root directory.
Rename the image to 'x4q.bin'.
4. Load the initramfs image to the router by executing following command
in U-Boot. The image will boot afterwards.
> tftpboot 0x81000000 x4q.bin; bootm
5. SCP the sysupgrade-image into '/tmp'.
Remember to assign yourself an IP in 192.168.1.0/24 for this step!
6. Install OpenWRT permanently by executing
> sysupgrade -n /tmp/<OpenWRT-sysupgrade-image>

On ath79 and UBNT Bullet M XW (ar9342) I was experiencing weird issues during
network setup[1] which I was able to reproduce easily with following commands:
uci set network.lan.ipaddr='192.168.1.20'
uci commit network
ifup lan
Which resulted after some time in:
...
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at net/sched/sch_generic.c:461 dev_watchdog+0x16c/0x280
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0 (ag71xx): transmit queue 0 timed out
...
Sometimes I wasn't able to use networking anymore, sometimes it was enough to
just ifdown/ifup lan and network was backup. On ar71xx it was all working just
fine.
I've found out, that it was happening because ag71xx_poll() wasn't called, thus
the TX queue wasn't emptied. The ag71xx_poll() is being called from napi
hrtimer, which is enabled by napi_schedule() in ar71xx_interrupt(), but since
no interrupts were ever fired again after ag71xx_stop() was called, it was
always leading to tx queue timeouts:
*** ag71xx_hard_start_xmit()
eth0: packet injected into TX queue
eth0: raw intr=00000001 TXPS POLL
eth0: enable polling mode
eth0: processing TX ring, flush=no
eth0: disable polling mode, rx=1, tx=1,limit=32
( `ifup lan done here` )
*** ag71xx_stop()
*** ag71xx_open()
*** ag71xx_hw_enable()
IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready
IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth0: link becomes ready
*** ag71xx_hard_start_xmit()
eth0: packet injected into TX queue
*** ag71xx_hard_start_xmit()
eth0: packet injected into TX queue
...
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at net/sched/sch_generic.c:320 dev_watchdog+0x164/0x274
So I've looked at ag71xx_stop() in ar71xx, added the missing bits to ath79 and
fixed this issue.

Make sure you set a password for the root user as prompted on first
setup!
1. Upload OpenWRT sysupgrade image via SSH to the device.
Use /tmp as the destination folder on the device.
User is root, password previously set in the web interface.
2. Install OpenWRT with
> sysupgrade -n -F /tmp/<openwrt-image-name>

Change the "status" LED to proper GPIO 12 and "red" naming.
Remove GPIO 2 from definition as a USB LED.
GPIO 2 is used to control power to the USB socket, not an LED.
As such, PWM on the line or typical LED triggers are inappropriate.
Users who wish to control the USB power for custom applications
can manipulate the GPIO through code, or for example, export it
through /sys/class/gpio/export.
