Sergio Paracuellos eb00fb8f71 ramips: add support for HiLink HLK-7621A evaluation board
Specifications:
- SoC: MediaTek MT7621AT
- RAM: 256 MB (DDR3)
- Flash: 32 MB SPI NOR 44MHz
- Switch: 1 WAN, 4 LAN (Gigabit)
- LEDs: 1 WAN, 4 LAN (controlled by PHY)
- USB Ports: 1 x USB2, 1 x USB3
- WLAN: 1 x 2.4, 5 GHz 866Mbps (MT7612E)
- Button: 1 button (reset)
- UART Serial: UART1 as console : 57600 baud
- Power: 12VDC, 1A

Installation:
Update openWRT firmware using internal GNUBEE uboot:
https://github.com/gnubee-git/GnuBee-MT7621-uboot

By HTTP: Initial uboot address is http://10.10.10.123, your address
needs to be 10.10.10.x, and mask 255.255.255.0.
By TFTP: Uboot is in client mode, the address of the firmware must
be tftp://10.10.10.3/uboot.bin

Recovery:
Manufacturer provides MTK OpenWrt 14.07 source code, compile then
flash it by uboot.
HLK-7621A is a stamp hole package module for embedded development,
users have to design IO boards to use it.

MAC addresses:
- u-boot-env contains a placeholder address:
  > mtd_get_mac_ascii u-boot-env ethaddr
  03:17:73🆎cd:ef
- phy0 gets a valid-looking address:
  > cat /sys/class/ieee80211/phy0/macaddress
  f8:62:aa:**:**:a8
- Calibration data for &pcie2 contains a valid address, however the
  zeros in the right half look like it's not real:
  8c:88:2b:00:00:1b
- Since it's an evaluation board and there is no solid information
  about the MAC address assignment, the ethernet MAC address is left random.

OpenWrt logo

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.

Sunshine!

Development

To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.

Requirements

You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.

binutils bzip2 diff find flex gawk gcc-6+ getopt grep install libc-dev libz-dev
make4.1+ perl python3.6+ rsync subversion unzip which

Quickstart

  1. Run ./scripts/feeds update -a to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default

  2. Run ./scripts/feeds install -a to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/

  3. Run make menuconfig to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages.

  4. Run make to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.

The main repository uses multiple sub-repositories to manage packages of different categories. All packages are installed via the OpenWrt package manager called opkg. If you're looking to develop the web interface or port packages to OpenWrt, please find the fitting repository below.

  • LuCI Web Interface: Modern and modular interface to control the device via a web browser.

  • OpenWrt Packages: Community repository of ported packages.

  • OpenWrt Routing: Packages specifically focused on (mesh) routing.

  • OpenWrt Video: Packages specifically focused on display servers and clients (Xorg and Wayland).
