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
Image was tested only in US version of the device, but should work
also with the same device version sold in other countries.
Available FLASH space, with LEDE trunk, is only 240 KB.

The firmware image that is used in TP-Link RE450 (and some more devices from
the RE series) is tplink-safeloader.
In the kernel partition, the kernel is compressed in a regular tp-link
firmware that is just used for booting. Since it is only used for compressing
and booting, only four fields are filled in the header:
Vendor, version, kernel load address and kernel entry point.
mktplinkfw-kernel is a simpler version of mktpolinkfw that generate such
images. It also specifies the hardware id (as it is in the product info
section), so when doing a sysupgrade - the existing code will check for
hardware compatibility.

Our current implementation is pretty old and uses some pre-standard/old
ANSI C style that triggers warnings like:
warning: call to function 'MD5_Init' without a real prototype [-Wunprototyped-calls]
This is caused by declarations specified in a following way:
src/md5.h:60:6: note: 'MD5_Init' was declared here
void MD5_Init ();
Having these warnings makes it harded to notice real problems. We could
try hiding them but it makes more sense to just use a cleaner code.
Another tiny gain from this switch is slightly reduced binary size, on
x86_64 tplink-safeloader's size 48104 became 48003.
The new code is public domain, uses "heavily cut-down BSD license".

This patch adds header support for the Cisco Meraki MX60/MX60W, which
are a part of the apm821xx target. Some structure changes were needed
due to the fact this device uses U-Boot (unlike other devices in
mkmerakifw.c) which uses a different header structure to define the load
offsets for the image.
A thanks to Christian for helping implement this properly.

Recent refactoring introduced a regression. It ignored second argument
of make_support_list function which was originally true for C2600. The
new generic build_image function always passes false.
This patch allows specifying trailing char in a device specific info. It
also switches Archer C9 to the \0 char to make it compliant with vendor
images.
I verified generated images to be binary identical to the ones that
were created before whole refactoring.

Looking into /usr/include/stdlib.h, there's a `devname()` function defined
under some #ifdef's which conflicts with the `static char *devname` definition
in `src/mkwrggimg.c`.
Defining `_ANSI_SOURCE` in the `src/mkwrggimg.c` file, omits that part of the
header.
Another more intrusive approach is to rename `devname` to something like
`g_devname` in `src/mkwrggimg.c`. But I think the `_ANSI_SOURCE` define should
be enough.
Compilation error is:

The new u-boot version bundled with the 5.6.x firmwares from Ubiquiti gets
confused by the smaller rootfs partition size; this can lead to various
issues:
1. We've gotten reports that flashing from the 5.6.x stock firmware to
OpenWrt will brick devices; I wasn't able to reproduce this myself
2. Flashing from 5.5.x stock firmware to OpenWrt and back to stock (via
TFTP recovery), following by an update to 5.6.x via web interface can
yield a bricked device with the following properties:
- It can't be booted without entering commands over a serial console, as
u-boot supplies the wrong MTD layout
- The web interface won't accept any image with the original flash
layout, so stock firmware upgrades are impossible
- As the TFTP recovery doesn't update u-boot, returning to the old
u-boot from firmware 5.5.x is impossible
To recover from 2., creating an OpenWrt image which doesn't set u-boot as
read-only and flashing a backup of the old u-boot from there is the only
way known to me. (Fixing the mtdparts variable in u-boot-env from OpenWrt
might also work; settings this from u-boot over serial didn't have
any permanent effect.)
Fix all of this by setting the correct flash layout also used by the stock
firmware. Flashing has been tested from both firmware 5.5.x and 5.6.x. The
fixed layout also matches the mtdparts defined by OpenWrt.

It has an important feature (compared to seama) of using multiple input
files, aligning them and padding zeroes until reaching a specified
absolute offset. This is needed for a proper flash layout on NAND. We
want kernel partition to be big enough to handle future updates without
a need to resize it and wipe whole "ubi" partition. It's important as
we don't want to lose block counters.
