This adds support for the various clones of the TL-WA830RE recently
supported in fb99ac6807 ("ath79: add support for TP-Link TL-WA830RE v1"):
- tplink,tl-wa701nd-v1
- tplink,tl-wa730re-v1
- tplink,tl-wa801nd-v1
- tplink,tl-wa830re-v1 (already supported)
- tplink,tl-wa901nd-v1
Since these devices are 100%-clones in ar71xx, this patch adds all
of them without run-testing (as this has been done for TL-WA830RE v1).
Specifications:
- SOC: Atheros AR7240
- CPU: 400MHz
- Flash: 4 MiB (Spansion S25FL032P)
- RAM: 32 MiB (Zentel A3S56D40FTP-G5)
- WLAN: Atheros AR9280 bgn 2x2
- Ethernet: 1 port (100M)

The TL-WR940N v6 is similar to v3/v4, it just has different
LEDs and MAC address assignment.
Specification:
- 750 MHz CPU
- 32 MB of RAM
- 4 MB of FLASH
- 2.4 GHz WiFi
- 4x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
The use of LEDs is based on ar71xx, so blue LED is used for WAN
and orange LED for diag (boot/failsafe/etc.).
Flash instruction (WebUI):
Download *-factory.bin image and upload it via the firmwary upgrade
function of the stock firmware WebUI.
Flash instruction (TFTP):
1. Set PC to fixed ip address 192.168.0.66
2. Download *-factory.bin image and rename it to
wr940nv6_tp_recovery.bin
3. Start a tftp server with the image file in its root directory
4. Turn off the router
5. Press and hold Reset button
6. Turn on router with the reset button pressed and wait ~15 seconds
7. Release the reset button and after a short time
the firmware should be transferred from the tftp server
8. Wait ~30 second to complete recovery.

TP-Link TL-WA850RE v2 is a wall-plug N300 Wi-Fi range extender,
based on Qualcomm/Atheros QCA9533 v2.
Short specification:
- 550/391/195 MHz (CPU/DDR/AHB)
- 1x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
- 32 MB of RAM (DDR1)
- 4 MB of FLASH
- 2T2R 2.4 GHz
- 2x internal antennas (embedded on PCB)
- 9x LED (all can be turned off with GPIO15), 2x button
- UART (J3) header on PCB
Flash instruction: use "factory" image directly in vendor GUI.
Warning: this device does not include any kind of recovery mechanism
in the bootloader and disassembling process is not trivial.
You can access vendor firmware over serial line using:
- login: root
- password: sohoadmin
Stock firmware uses label MAC address for WiFi and same with local
bit set for ethernet. Since this is difficult to reproduce with
the toolset of OpenWrt, we just keep both ethernet and WiFi to
the same address here.
This is the first tiny device with tplink-safeloader in ath79.
Firmware partition is only 3648k and thus even smaller than for
the tplink-4m(lzma) devices.

This ports support for the TL-WA850RE v1 range extender from ar71xx
to ath79.
Specifications:
Board: AP123 / AR9341 rev. 3
Flash/RAM: 4/32 MiB
CPU: 535 MHz
WiFi: 2.4 GHz b/g/n
Ethernet: 1 port (100M)
Flashing instructions:
Upload the factory image via the vendor firmware upgrade option.
Recovery:
Note that this device does not provide TFTP via ethernet like many
other TP-Link devices do. You will have to open the case if you
require recovery beyond failsafe.

This enables using 4kiB sectors as erase blocks for 4MiB NOR flash ICs
that support it.
Writeable jffs2 overlay used to store settings requires a partition with
at least 5 erase blocks, so using small sectors is essential for devices
with 4MiB flash.
Sysupgrading a device running firmware without this feature will likely
not allow to preserve configs automatically but since ath79 is
considered to be in a "technology preview" state it shouldn't be a
problem.

Partitioning notes:
Vendor firmware (based on CameoAP99) defines two additional partitions:
"mac" @0x3b0000, size 0x10000 and "lp" @0x3c0000, size 0x30000.
The "mac" partition stores LAN MAC address and hardware board name.
However, the vendor firmware uses addresses from "nvram" partition, and
the board name is used only for informational purposes in the Web
interface (included in the pages' header), not affecting the firmware
image check.
The "lp" partition is supposed to contain a "language pack" (which can
be used to add an additional language support to the Web interface) and
is flashed separately, using the vendor firmware upgrade page.
Since these partitions are absolutely useless for OpenWrt and
overwriting them doesn't prevent downgrading to obsolete vendor
firmware, this patch appends the valueable space to "firmware".
Installation instructions:
- Upgrade from OpenWrt ar71xx with "sysupgrade -f -n"
or
- Upload as a firmware update via the vendor Web-interface
or
- Connect UART and use "loady" to upload and run OpenWrt initramfs
image, then sysupgrade from it (TFTP client doesn't work)
or
- Before powering up hold "reset" button and keep it pressed for about
15 seconds after, then access fail safe Web server on 192.168.0.1 (the
old uIP TCP/IP protocol stack is not compatible with modern Linux, the
kernel, so you'll need to use some other OS to do this). Can be
performed without a Web-browser too:

This commit adds PCI support for the whole ath79 target. Previously,
this was only done in the generic and tiny subtargets.
With the introduction of the HiveAP-121, PCI will be a requirement for
all subtargets, thus moving PCI support to the target configuration.
Signed-off-by: David Bauer <mail@david-bauer.net>
While most of the target's contents are split into subtargets, the
base-files are maintained for the target as a whole.
However, OpenWrt already implements a mechanism that will use (and
even prefer) files in the subtargets' directories. This can be
exploited to make several scripts subtarget-specific and thus save
some space (especially helpful for the tiny devices).
The only script remaining in parent base-files is
/etc/hotplug.d/ieee80211/00-wifi-migration, everything else is
moved/split.
Note that this will increase overall code lines, but reduce code
per subtarget.
base-files ipk size reduction:
master (generic) 49135 B
split (generic) 48533 B (- 0.6 kiB)
split (tiny) 43337 B (- 5.7 kiB)
split (nand) 44423 B (- 4.6 kiB)
Tested on TL-WR1043ND v4 (generic) and TL-WR841N v12 (tiny).

Add a new config option to allow to select the default compile
optimization level for the kernel.
Select the optimization for size by default if the small_flash feature is
set. Otherwise "Optimize for performance" is set.
Add the small_flash feature flag to all (sub)targets which had the
optimization for size in their default kernel config.
Remove CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_* symbols from all kernel configs to apply the new
setting.
Exceptions to the above are:
- lantiq, where the optimization for size is only required for the
xway_legacy subtarget but was set for the whole target
- mediatek, ramips/mt7620 & ramips/mt76x8 where boards should have
plenty of space and an optimization for size doesn't make much sense
- rb532, which has 128MByte flash
