Sercomm H500-s is an xDSL dual band wireless router based on Broadcom
BCM63167 SoC.
Hardware:
SoC: Broadcom BCM63167
CPU: BMIPS4350 V8.0, 400 MHz, 2 cores
Flash: NAND 128 MiB
RAM: DDR3 128 MiB
Ethernet: 4x 10/100/1000 Mbps
Switch: BCM53134S
Wireless: 802.11b/g/n: BCM435f (integrated)
802.11ac: Quantenna QT3740BC (onboard SoC)
USB: 1x 2.0
LEDs/Buttons: 11x / 2x
Flash instruction, web UI:
1. Reset to defaults using the reset button if the admin password is
unknown
2. Login into the web UI as admin.
Address: http://192.168.0.1
User: admin
Password: VF-ESVodafone-H-500-s or l033i-h500s
3. Go to Settings -> Firmware Update, and select the Openwrt factory
firmware
4. Update the firmware.
5. Wait until it finish, the device will reboot with Openwrt installed
on the alternative image partitions keeping the stock firmware in
the former.
Notes:
- The patch also adds support for the lowi version. Only the factory
firmware is different.
- The integrated Wifi in the Broadcom Soc isn't still supported.
- The Quantenna 802.11ac wifi works ok, but needs to be configured with
the Quantenna client application. It can't be configured with Luci
nor any iw command since it's a separated subsystem linked via
ethernet.
- The BCM53134S external switch is managed via MDIO which isn't
supported in this target. Therefore it will behave as a dumb switch.

Some CFEs are located at the address currently used for relocation and lzma
loader load address, so we need to provide a way to override it.

There is no need to include the CFE bootloader in the Sercomm factory
images.
There might be a case when this could be useful:
- We are running the stock firmware on the first Sercomm image
- The second partition storing the botloader was erased (unlikely)
Even in this case flashing an image without a bootlader is harmless.
Don't include the bootloader in the factory image creation and rid of the
risk of flashing factory images with an untested bootloader partition.

Some (older) CFEs are loaded at 0x80401000 and ramdisks are loaded at
0x80010000, which means that ramdisk size limit is 0x3F1000 (almost 4M).
Therefore, current ramdisks (~4MB) are overwritting CFE in these devices,
which results in a crash.
This commit changes the address where ramdisks are loaded to 0x80a00000,
which is the same address where kernel is loaded when booting from the flash.
Therefore, lzma-loader will now be loaded at 0x80a00000, but it will still
decompress the kernel at 0x80010000.
Tested with huawei,hg556a-b, which has its CFE loaded at 0x80401000.

Apparently, Sercomm allows loading a BCM WFI image via CFE, but this image
destroys "serial" and "protect" nand partitions, which is wrong.
It will also set both bootflags to the same value, which causes booting
issues with cferam (cferom will alternatively boot from cferam1 or cferam2
each time the device is rebooted).
Now that OEM Sercomm images are supported it's time to remove this hacky
cfe.bin image support.

BCM6368 and newer devices are compatible with any lzma compression parameters.
Add a new legacy device definition and use it on BCM6358 and older devices.
Compressed kernel size is reduced by ~1.35%.

This images can be flashed from the official firmware, as opposed to CFE
images, which can only be flashed from CFE and require opening the case.

ADB P.DG A4001N A-000-1A1-AX a.k.a. Telecom Italia ADSL2+ Wi-Fi N (AGPWI)
has the same PCB as the OpenWrt's ADB P.DG A4001N1 with LEDs connected
to different GPIO PINs in active low configuration.
OpenWrt's ADB P.DG A4001N image is made for the ADB P.DG A4001N A-000-1A1-AE.
It has different LEDs configuration and flash size/layout
w.r.t the ADB P.DG A4001N A-000-1A1-AX.

Introduce support for generating JFFS2 CFE partition tags.
This is used in NAND devices in order to verify the integrity of the JFFS2
partition.

lzma-loader uart output wasn't working on BCM3380/BCM6362 because these
SoCs have the same processor ID.
Let's use CHIP_ID for establishing the UART base address.

Device with 4 MiB flash and 32 MiB RAM won't be able to run OpenWrt in
a sufficient manner without tweaks, so don't build images for them by
default.
This includes all BCM6338, BCM6345 and BCM6348 "generic" devices,
as there are no supported devices of these with more than that.

This change makes the names of Broadcom targets consistent by using
the common notation based on SoC/CPU ID (which is used internally
anyway), bcmXXXX instead of brcmXXXX.
This is even used for target TITLE in make menuconfig already,
only the short target name used brcm so far.
