Konstantin Demin eac927fadf toolchain: binutils: simplify patch management
Take in account only first two version components to lookup patch directory.
Hovewer, computed "BASE_VERSION" may be overridden (if necessary).
This change should prevent further issues with binutils being unpatched, see commits adad973a9c and 525a1e94b3.

Also drop obsolete "BIN_VERSION" variable (not used anywhere).

Nick Hainke b6b09a2ad8 x86: add support for DFI ADN553
The DFI ADN553 is a 3.5" SBC based on Intel Atom Alder Lake-N
processors with three Intel I226V 2.5GbE ports.

Specs:
* CPU: Intel Atom x7425E (4C, 12W) / x7213E (2C, 10W) /
       x7211E (2C, 6W)
* RAM: 1x DDR5 SO-DIMM, up to 16GB
* Storage: 1x M.2 M key 2242/2280 (PCIe Gen3 x1/SATA3),
           1x SATA 3.0
* Ethernet: 3x 2.5GbE RJ-45 (Intel I226V)
* USB: 4x USB 3.2 (rear), 2x USB 2.0 (internal)
* Expansion: 1x M.2 B key 3052 (USB3/USB2, opt. PCIe x1, SIM),
             1x M.2 E key 2230 (USB/PCIe x1, CNVi)
* Display: 1x HDMI, 1x Type-C DP Alt. Mode, 1x LVDS/eDP
* Power: 9-36V DC wide range input
* TPM: dTPM 2.0 (NPCT750AADYX)
* Form factor: 3.5" SBC (146mm x 102mm)

Installation:
1. Write the combined-efi.img to a USB drive:
   dd if=combined-efi.img of=/dev/sdX conv=fdatasync
2. Boot the ADN553 from the USB drive via the UEFI boot menu.
3. For permanent installation, write the image to the M.2 or
   SATA storage device.

The board uses "Default string" as DMI sys_vendor and product_name
placeholders, so board detection is fixed by filtering these out and
falling through to board_vendor (DFI Inc.) and board_name (ADN553).

The three I226V NICs are pinned to their PCIe paths to ensure
consistent interface ordering matching the physical left-to-right
port layout. eth0 is assigned as WAN and eth1/eth2 as LAN.

Jonas Jelonek b7c21b4347 realtek: pcs: rtl93xx: extend USXGMII config
Our USXGMII config only covers one single register of which kind there
are actually more. We only set a value for 'CFG_QHSG_TXCFG_MAC_CH0' but
there are additional registers for CH1-CH3. Those refer to the 4
USXGMII 'channels'. While the RTL930x part of the SDK doesn't set them
explicitly, from RTK setup SerDes dumps we can see they are usually
similarly set.

The RTL931x part of the SDK actually writes those register explicitly
during USXGMII. We just haven't implemented that so far. Thus, add this
to the USXGMII config for both RTL93xx.

The USXGMII config setting specific options currently is only
implemented for RTL930x. Looking at the SDK one can see that RTL931x
shares a lot of these configuration options. Additionally, several dumps
from RTK setups have shown that values which aren't set yet by us for
RTL930x but for RTL931x, also apply for RTL930x. Thus, both can be
merged. Start this by making the current function generic for RTL93xx.

INAGAKI Hiroshi 986ca4c887 mediatek: add support for BUFFALO WSR-3000AX4P
BUFFALO WSR-3000AX4P is a 2.4/5 GHz band 11ax (Wi-Fi 6) router, based on
MT7981B.

Specification:

- SoC             : MediaTek MT7981B
- RAM             : DDR4 512 MiB (ESMT M16U4G16256A-KJBG)
- Flash           : SPI-NAND 128 MiB (Winbond W25N01GVZEIG)
- WLAN            : 2.4/5 GHz 2T2R (MediaTek MT7981B (SoC))
- Ethernet        : 4x 10/100/1000 Mbps
  - switch        : MediaTek MT7531A
- LEDs/Keys (GPIO): 6x/4x
- UART            : through-hole on PCB (J1)
  - assignment    : 3.3V, GND, TX, RX from tri-angle marking
  - settings      : 115200n8
- Power           : 12 VDC, 1.5 A (Max. 14.4 W)

Flash instruction using initramfs image:

1. Prepare a TFTP server with 192.168.11.2
2. Rename initramfs image to "linux.ubi-recovery" and put it to the TFTP
   directory
3. Hold the "AOSS" button and power on WSR-3000AX4P, release after 7~
   seconds
4. The bootloader automatically downloads the initramfs image and boots
   with it
5. After booting, upload a sysupgrade image to the device and perform
   sysupgrade with it
6. Wait ~100 seconds to complete flashing

Reverting to stock image:

1. Download a official firmware and decrypt it by buffalo-enc

   example:

     buffalo-enc -i <official .bin> -o fw.dec -d -O 0xC8 -l

2. Upload the decrypted image to the device
3. Flash the image to the UBI in "ubi_kernel" partition on the device

   example:

     . /lib/upgrade/common.sh
     . /lib/upgrade/nand.sh
     CI_UBIPART="ubi_kernel" nand_do_flash_file fw.dec

4. Reboot the device

   reboot

Notes:

- WSR-3000AX4P has 2x OS images ("ubi"/"Kernel2"), but the second one
  is only for backup and not used for booting.

  image handling on the bootloader:

  - "ubi" is broken     : "Kernel2" --(copy)--> "ubi"
  - "Kernel2" is broken : "ubi" --(copy)--> "Kernel2"
  - "ubi" != "Kernel2"  :
    - boot_select=0: "ubi" --(copy)--> "Kernel2"
    - boot_select=1: "Kernel2" --(copy)--> "ubi", set boot_select to '0'

MAC Addresses:

LAN   : EC:5A:31:xx:xx:50 (board_data, "mac" (text))
WAN   : EC:5A:31:xx:xx:50
2.4GHz: EC:5A:31:xx:xx:52
5GHz  : EC:5A:31:xx:xx:59

Zoltan HERPAI bcfe1855bd kernel/pistachio: restore files for v6.12
This is an automatically generated commit which aids following Kernel patch
history, as git will see the move and copy as a rename thus defeating the
purpose.

Jörg Seitz a2dcbd79a4 mediatek: filogic: Add new Router model ZBT-Z8106AX-T
Device support for zbt-z8106ax-t

Vendor Zbtlink advertizes this device as model Z8106AX-M2-T
on their website www.zbtlink.com. Device label sticked on
enclosure however states this is model Z8106AX version -T.
I made firmware selector to show this device as
- ZBT-Z8106AX-T to match information printed on the label and
- ZBT-Z8106AX-M2-T to match information found on vendors web pages.

Specifications:

SoC: MediaTek MT7981B
RAM: 256MiB
Flash: Winbond SPI-NAND 128 MiB
Switch: 1 WAN, 4 LAN (Gigabit) MediaTek MT7531
Buttons: Reset
Power: DC 12V-32V 1A
WiFi: MT7981B 2.4Ghz & 5Ghz
USB 3
M2 slot to hold LTE modem
2x nano SIM slots (user controllable)

Router comes in a flat metal box with all antennas detachable.
 - 4 antennas for LTE 4G/5G communication
 - 2 antennas for Wifi 2.4 GHz
 - 2 antennas for Wifi 5 GHz

Power supply could be between 12V and 32V.
This serves both cars equipped with 12V batteries
and trucks equipped with 24V batteries.

Led Layout:

Power (green, user controllable, default set to OpenWrt Status)
Mobile (green, user controllable)
WLAN 2.4G (green, user controllable)
WLAN 5G (green, user controllable)

WAN (amber, user controllable, set to show eth1)
LAN1 (amber, hardware controlled)
LAN2 (amber, hardware controlled)
LAN3 (amber, hardware controlled)
LAN4 (amber, hardware controlled)

SIM Slots:

Controlled via exported GPIO named SIM.

echo "0" > /sys/class/gpio/sim/value
 - selects upper sim slot labelled SIM1

echo "1" > /sys/class/gpio/sim/value
 - selects lower sim slot labelled SIM2

Slot SIM2 is set as default and matches label on Router enclosure

Installation:

A. Through U-Boot menu:

- Prepare your connecting computer to use a static IP in
  network 192.168.1.0/24 like
  a) 192.168.1.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 (legacy notation)
  b) 192.168.1.10/24 (CIDR notation)
- Power down the router and hold in the Reset button.
- While holding in the button power up the router again.
- Hold the button in for 10 seconds and then release.
- Use your browser to go to 192.168.1.1
- If you see a GUI allowing for flashing firmware then you got the right spot.
- Upload the **Factory** image file.

Note: U-Boot GUI it can be used to recover from an incorrect firmware flash.

B. Through OpenWrt Dashboard:

If your router comes with OpenWrt preinstalled (modified by vendor),
you can easily upgrade by going to the dashboard (192.168.1.1) and
then navigate to "System" -> "Backup/Flash firmware"
Flash OpenWRT firmware and take care to deselect (untick) option
"keep settings". Settings done by vendor are incompatible with
versions 24.10 or 25.12.

MAC Addresses:

MAC Addresses were found in Factory partition:

offset 0x4 F8:5E:3C:xx:xx:aa --> Router Label -2
offset 0xa F8:5E:3C:xx:xx:bb --> Router Label -1
offset 0x24 F8:5E:3C:xx:xx:cc --> Router Label +1
offset 0x2a F8:5E:3C:xx:xx:yy --> printed on Router Label

Hardware Watchdog:

Device features a GPIO controlled hardware watchdog.
Verfied by removing procd controlled watchdog and
seeing device rebooting.

Notes:
The zbt-z8106ax-t could be ordered from vendor with a variety of modems.
Mine came with a Quectel RM520N-GL. Quectel firmware was at RM520NGLAAR01A07M4G.
This level of firmware made some trouble connecting with some of my
SIM cardproviders.
Newer firmware level RM520NGLAAR01A08M4G_01.205.01.205 was available searching
github repositories. Upgrading my RM520-GL allowed to get successful connects
that did fail with older Quectel firmware.

Modem communication is set to ethernet control mode (ECM) by vendor.
Vendor takes advantage of ECM by wiring modem to internal switch port WWAN.
OpenWRT network configuration wants to define two network interfaces
 - Network interface covering USB0 set with high metric
 - Network interface covering WWAN set with low metric
Network interface covering WWAN would be preferred default route.

Please take note that internal switch port wired to LTE modem is named LAN5
in vendor provided firmwares. OpenWRT however names port as WWAN to better
describe purpose of port. WWAN is suggested to be assigned to firewall zone WAN.

Did use package qmodem from github repository FUjR/QModem to manage RM520N-GL LTE modem.

Eric Fahlgren 038bc85849 base-files: sysupgrade: exclude apk files from backup
Exclude more apk related files from the sysupgrade backup list when
using the various options that scan /etc for changes.

Ensure removal of the system generated distfeeds list, as that
contains kernel- and version-specific urls and should never be
retained.

Also exclude any '*.apk-new' files, equivalent to the old '*-opkg'
files, which may have been created during package installation.

Example before
  $ sysupgrade -l -c | grep apk
  /etc/apk/keys/buildroot.pem
  /etc/apk/repositories.d/customfeeds.list
  /etc/apk/repositories.d/distfeeds.list
  /etc/owut.d/pre-install.sh.apk-new
  /etc/config/adblock.apk-new

After
  $ sysupgrade -l -c | grep apk
  /etc/apk/keys/buildroot.pem
  /etc/apk/repositories.d/customfeeds.list
