Conceptually, the compat-version during sysupgrade is meant to
describe the config. Therefore, if somebody starts with a device on
19.07 and swconfig, and that person does a forceful upgrade into a
DSA-based firmware without wiping his/her config, then the local
compat-version should stay at 1.0 according to the config present
(and not get updated).
However, this poses a problem for those people that early-adopted
DSA in master, as they already have adjusted their config for DSA,
but it still is "1.0" as far as sysupgrade is concerned. This can
be healed by a simple
uci set system.@system[0].compat_version="1.1"
uci commit system
But this needs to be applied _after_ the upgrade (as the "old" fwtool
on the old installation does not know about compat_version) and it
requires access via SSH (i.e. no pure GUI solution is available for
this group of people, apart from wiping their config _again_ for
no technical reason). Despite, the situation will not become
obvious to those just upgrading via GUI, they will just have the
experience of a "broken upgrade".
This is a conflict which cannot be resolved by achieving both goals,
we have to decide to either keep the strict concept or improve the
situation for early adopters.
In this patch, we address the issue by providing a uci-defaults
script that will raise the compat_version for _all_ people upgrading
into a 1.1 image, no matter whether they have reset config or not.
The idea is to implement this as a _temporary_ solution, so early
adopters can upgrade into the new mechanism without issues, and
after a few weeks/months we could remove the uci-defaults script
again.
If we e.g. remove the script just before 20.xx.0-rc1, early adopters
should have moved on by then, and existing stable users would still
get the intended experience.

When changing the Pro variant to DSA, the ethernet interface rename
script was dropped by all devices to keep them in sync:
be309bfd74 ("mvebu: drop 06_set_iface_mac preinit script")
Therefore, network config will be broken after upgrade for the
Base variant as well. Increase the compat version and provide a
message to signal that to the users.

This implements the newly introduced compat-version to prevent
upgrade between swconfig and DSA for mvebu.
Just define a compat version with minor increment and an appropriate
message for both image (in Makefile) and device (in base-files).
Having taken care of sysupgrade, we can put back the SUPPORTED_DEVICES
that have been removed in previous patches to prevent broken config.
Attention:
All users that already updated to the DSA versions in master will
receive the same incompatibility warning since their devices are still
"1.0" as far as fwtool can tell.
Those, and only those, can bypass the upgrade check by using force (-F)
without having to reset config again. In addition, the new version
string needs to be put into uci config manually, so the new fwtool
knows that it actually deals with a "1.1":
uci set "system.@system[-1].compat_version=1.1"
uci commit system

The Helios 4 is a NAS from Kobol
that is powered by an Armada 38x
MicroSOM from Solidrun, similarly
to Clearfog.
This device has:
-Armada 38x CPU
(dual core ARMv7 1.6 Ghz)
-2 GB of ECC RAM
-Gigabit ethernet (Marvell)
-2x USB 3.0 ports
-4x Sata 3.0 ports
-i2c header (J9 |>GND|SDA|SCL|VCC)
-2x 3-pin fan headers with PWM
-micro-usb port is a TTL/UART to
USB converter connected to TTL
-MicroSD card slot
-System, 4xSata and 1xUSB LEDs
NOT WORKING: fan control
Fan Control requires a kernel patch
that is available in the Armbian
project (the "default firmware"
of this device) and named
mvebu-gpio-remove-hardcoded
-timer-assignment
This patch isn't acceptable
by OpenWrt, it should be upstreamed.
I also have that patch in my own
local OpenWrt builds,
in case you want a more
clean and less confusing patch
for upstreaming.
To install, write the disk image
on a micro SD card with dd or
win32 disk imager, insert the
card in the slot.
Check that the dip switch battery
for boot selection is as follows
Switch 1 and 2 down/off, switches
3, 4, 5 up/on.

The mwlwifi driver sets the default country code for EU (fi-
rmware region code 0x30) certified devices to FR (France),
not DE (Germany). Whilst this is a trivial fix, novice users
may not know how mwlwifi negatively reacts to a non-matching
country code and may leave the setting alone. Especially si-
nce it is under the advanced settings section in LuCI.
Relevant mwlwifi driver code:
0a550312dd
The mwlwifi driver readme states "Please don't change country
code and let mwlwifi set it for you." However, OpenWrt's current
behaviour does not adhere to this with its default, 'just flashed
from factory' setting for EU devices.

This drops the shebang from all target files for /lib and

is useless.

This does not touch ar71xx, as this target is just used for

The Linksys devices in mvebu target feature a mixed naming,
where parts are based on the official product name (device
node, image; e.g. WRT3200ACM) and parts are based on the
internal code name (DTS file name, compatible, LED labels;
e.g. rango). This inconsistent naming has been perceived
as quite confusing.
A recent attempt by Paul Spooren to harmonize this naming
in kernel has been declined there. However, for us it still
makes sense to apply at least a part of these changes
locally.
Primarily, this patch changes the compatible in DTS and thus
the board name used in various scripts to have them in line
with the device, model and image names. Due to the recent
switch from swconfig to DSA, this allows us to drop
SUPPORTED_DEVICES and thus prevent seamless upgrade between
these incompatible setups.
However, this does not include the LED label rename from
Paul's initial patch: I don't think it's worth keeping the
enormous diff locally for this case, as we can implement
this much easier in 01_leds if we have to live with the
inconsistency anyway.

Buffalo LinkStation LS421DE is a dual bay NAS, based on Marvell Armada 370
Hardware:
SoC: Marvell Armada 88F6707-A1
CPU: Cortex-A9 1200 MHz, 1 core
Flash: SPI-NOR 1 MiB, NAND 512 MiB
RAM: DDR3 512 MiB
Ethernet: 1x 10/100/1000 Mbps
USB: 1x 2.0, 1x 3.0
SATA: 2x 3.0 Gbps
LEDs/Input : 5x / 2x (1x button, 1x slide-switch)
RTC: Ricoh RS5C372A, I2C, no battery
Flash instruction (UART+TFTP):
1. Downgrade the OEM firmware to 1.34 version (BUFFALO_BOOTVER=0.13)
2. Remove any hard drive from inside the bays.
3. Boot the Openwrt initramfs image using the U-Boot serial console:
tftpboot 0x1200000 buffalo_ls421de-initramfs-kernel.bin
bootm 0x1200000
4. Flash the sysupgrade image using the Openwrt console:
sysupgrade -n buffalo_ls421de-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
5. Wait until it finish, the device will reboot with Openwrt installed
on the NAND flash.
Note:
- Device shuting down doesn't work, even if the power slide switch is
used. We must first, via MDIO, set the unused LED2 at the ethernet
phy0 to off state. Reboot works ok.

Armada 370 processors have only 16 double-precision registers. The
change introduced by 8dcc108760 ("toolchain: ARM: Fix toolchain
compilation for gcc 8.x") switched accidentally the toolchain for mvebu
cortexa9 subtarget to cpu type with 32 double-precision registers. This
stems from gcc defaults which assume "vfpv3-d32" if only "vfpv3" as mfpu
is specified. That change resulted in unusable image, in which kernel
will kill userspace as soon as it causing "Illegal instruction".

For the mvebu target in particular, there is a lot of files in
base-files that are only relevant for one subtarget. Improve
overview and reduce size per subtarget by moving/splitting
base-files depending on the subtarget they belong to.
