ELECOM WRC-X3000GST2 is a 2.4/5 GHz band 11ax (Wi-Fi 6) router based on
IPQ5018. The only hardware difference from the WRC-X3000GS2 is the RAM
capacity; all other peripherals are identical. This port therefore
reuses the GS2 board-2.bin (ipq-wifi-elecom_wrc-x3000gs2) and ath11k
calibration variant.

Flash instruction using factory.bin image:
1. Boot WRC-X3000GST2 normally in router mode
2. Access the WebUI ("http://192.168.2.1/") and open the firmware
update page ("ファームウェア更新")
3. Select the OpenWrt factory.bin image and click apply ("適用")
4. After the device reboots automatically, wait until the green power LED
stops blinking and stays solid
5. When the green power LED is solid, hold the reset button until the red
LED starts blinking to clear remaining stock firmware settings
Switching to the stock firmware:
1. Load the elecom.sh script
. /lib/upgrade/elecom.sh
2. Check the current index of rootfs
bootconfig_rw_index 0:bootconfig rootfs
3. Set the index to inverted value
bootconfig_rw_index 0:bootconfig rootfs <value>
bootconfig_rw_index 0:bootconfig1 rootfs <value>
example:
- step2 returned "0":
bootconfig_rw_index 0:bootconfig rootfs 1
bootconfig_rw_index 0:bootconfig1 rootfs 1
- step2 returned "1":
bootconfig_rw_index 0:bootconfig rootfs 0
bootconfig_rw_index 0:bootconfig1 rootfs 0

Notes:
- This device has dual-boot feature and it's managed by the index in the
0:bootconfig and 0:bootconfig1 partitions.
- Wi-Fi BDF is shared with WRC-X3000GS2 (ipq-wifi-elecom_wrc-x3000gs2)
as the hardware (SoC, QCN6122, antennas) is identical between the two
models.
- GST2 stock firmware keeps its configuration even when sysupgrade is
called with -n. When installing from the OEM WebUI, those stock
settings can be restored into OpenWrt overlay, so settings must be
initialized after the first OpenWrt boot.

Flash instructions: (use redmi-ax5400 image for the Redmi AX5400)
Download XMIR Patcher: https://github.com/openwrt-xiaomi/xmir-patcher
First flash a ubinized OpenWrt initramfs that will serve as the intermediate step, since
OpenWrt uses unified rootfs in order to fully utilize NAND and provide enough space for
packages, through either of the below two methods:
Installation via XMIR Patcher:
1. Load the initramfs image: openwrt-qualcommax-ipq50xx-xiaomi_redmi-ax5400-initramfs-factory.ubi
Installation via ubiformat method, through SSH:
1. If needed, enable SSH using XMIR Patcher.
2. Copy the file openwrt-qualcommax-ipq50xx-xiaomi_redmi-ax5400-initramfs-factory.ubi to the /tmp directory
3. Open an SSH shell to the router
4. Check which rootfs partition is your router booted in (0 = rootfs | 1 = rootfs_1):
nvram get flag_boot_rootfs
5. Find the rootfs and rootfs_1 mtd indexes respectively:
cat /proc/mtd
Please confirm if mtd18 and mtd19 are the correct indexes from above!
6. Use the command ubiformat to flash the opposite mtd with UBI image:
If nvram get flag_boot_rootfs returned 0:
ubiformat /dev/mtd19 -y -f /tmp/openwrt-qualcommax-ipq50xx-xiaomi_redmi-ax5400-initramfs-factory.ubi && nvram set flag_boot_rootfs=1 && nvram set flag_last_success=1 && nvram commit
otherwise:
ubiformat /dev/mtd18 -y -f /tmp/openwrt-qualcommax-ipq50xx-xiaomi_redmi-ax5400-initramfs-factory.ubi && nvram set flag_boot_rootfs=0 && nvram set flag_last_success=0 && nvram commit
7. Reboot the device by:
reboot
Continue in order to pernamently flash OpenWrt:
1. Upload the sysupgrade image to /tmp/ using SCP:
scp -O <path to image> root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/
2. Open an SSH shell to 192.168.1.1 from a PC within the same subnet
3. Use sysupgrade to flash the sysupgrade image:
sysupgrade -n -v /tmp/openwrt-qualcommax-ipq50xx-xiaomi_redmi-ax5400-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
Device will reboot with OpenWrt, and then sysupgrade can be used to upgrade the device when desired.

The Xiaomi AX6000 has three radios:
- IPQ5018 integrated 2.4 GHz (ath11k AHB, wifi0)
- QCN9024 on PCIe0 (ath11k PCI, QCA8074-class 5 GHz)
- QCA9887 on PCIe1 (ath10k, 5 GHz)
The DTS previously kept pcie1 disabled because the controller
could not bring the link up. The real cause was the PERST GPIO
polarity: the stock device-tree uses GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH on GPIO18
for the QCA9887 card, while OpenWrt had GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW, leaving
the card held in reset.
With the correct polarity the PCIe1 link trains and the QCA9887
enumerates at 01:00.0. ath10k loads firmware-2.bin, registers
phy0 with mac80211, and provides a functional 5 GHz AP.
Tested on a reworked Xiaomi AX6000 with QCA9887 soldered in.
All three radios enumerate, load firmware and beacon
successfully; scan, association and data traffic confirmed on
each radio.

The XO clock source is always-on in hardware and cannot be gated.
Without CLK_IS_CRITICAL, the CMN PLL runtime PM suspend cascades a

The EAP625 and EAP623 are extremely similar. The only difference in
the vendor's device tree is that EAP625 also enables USB and UART2.
Use the eap6xx dtsi instead of writing out a full devicetree.
The EAP623 uses the same RTL8211F as the 625 and 610. Since this is
a gigabit PHY, it is okay to change the ess mac mode from SGMII_PLUS
to SGMII. This is now consistent across all three devices.
Move the 'realtek,clkout-disable' and 'realtek,aldps-enable' PHY
properties to the common dtsi, as they work well on all three devices.

Flashing Notes:
The device uses a dual-image setup and OpenWrt can only be installed as
image 0. When the currently running stock firmware is image 0, OpenWrt
will be installed as image 1, fail to boot and the device returns to stock
firmware. If this happens, install any version of stock firmware so that
it runs as image 1, before installing OpenWrt. Alternatively, if there
already is a valid stock firmware in image 1, the "debug dual-image show"
and "debug dual-image set boot-image image1" commands can be used in the
stock CLI via serial/SSH/telnet to switch to image 1.
Flashing with Stock Web Interface:
* Get the OpenWrt factory image and rename it to a shorter name, for
example "openwrt.bin" (the stock firmware has a character limit)
* In the web interface, go to "Maintenance" -> "File Manager" ->
"Firmware Package" (or click the link next to "Firmware Version" under
"Device Information" on the dashboard)
* Under "Upload File" browse to the renamed OpenWrt factory image and
click on "Upload"
Switch Boot Image:
* OpenWrt to stock: "zyxel-bootconfig-ipq807x set image1"
* Stock to OpenWrt: "debug dual-image set boot-image image0"
Unbrick / Revert to Stock with the Boot Module:
* Disconnect the device from power
* Configure your machine to 192.168.1.103/24 and start a TFTP server
* Put the stock firmware image into the TFTP server root and rename it to
"ZLD-current"
* Establish a serial connection to the device through the console port
* Connect the device to power
* When prompted, press a key to abort automatic boot and enter debug mode
* Use the "atnz" command to flash the firmware image
* Use the "atgo" command to boot from the newly flashed image

executed when flashing using NMRP. This is used to alter and persist the
U-Boot env with a boot command that works with unsigned firmware.
Install OpenWrt:
* Get the nmrpflash utility [0] and OpenWrt factory image
* Find network interface to use: nmrpflash -L
* Start nmrpflash: nmrpflash -i interface -f openwrt-...-factory.img
* Connect the device LAN port closest to the power jack to the same
network using gigabit
* Plug the device in and wait for the bootloader to flash
* Unplug and replug the device once the power LED blinks amber
Revert to Stock:
The boot command needs to be reverted before flashing the stock firmware,
otherwise it will fail to boot and get stuck in recovery mode (red power
LED flashing).
* Run: fw_setenv bootcmd bootipq
* Restart the device
* Flash the stock firmware RBx350-Va.b.c.d.img using nmrpflash

Flashing Notes:
The stock firmware images are signed. Both the bootloader and the stock
web interface check the signature and will fail to boot/flash.

Installation via OEM firmware:
* Use the following process to obtain root ssh access
https://forum.openwrt.org/t/150371/24
* Connect using root with no password on port 42000
* Optionally for serial bootloader access run :
fw_setenv bootdelay=3
* SCP factory.bin to /tmp
* Run:
sysupgrade -n /tmp/factory.bin
Installation via serial console and OEM firmware::
* Use console to access OEM firmware shell
* Proceed with SCP & sysupgrade as described above
Other notes:
* This device uses active partition rotation
* Some versions (TCL branded?) have a NOR chip in addition to NAND
* The above is supported by u-boot patching DT partitions
* DT patching does NOT occur on tftpboot/bootm
* Modem is detected as foxconn-sdx55 by kernel (same VID/PID)
* This works OK-ish and should be improved if we can get OEM modem details

The BOOTCONFIG partition is used by Qualcomm's boot chain to store
metadata about the device's startup configuration. It contains info such
as versioning, configuration flags, primary boot partition, and more.
Newer devices with dual boot partitions not only store the active boot
partition in a U-boot variable but also in partition info in the
BOOTCONFIG partition. As such, add library functions to set and toggle
the active boot partition.
