This deactivates the kernel option CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT.
The old arm OABI is not needed any more, we compile all applications for
the new ARM EABI.
This reduces the attack surface of the kernel syscall interface.
On all other targets CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT is already deactivated.

This deactivates the CONFIG_COMPAT kernel option.
With CONFIG_COMPAT the kernel will provide syscall interfaces for arm32
binaries in addition to the interfaces needed for arm64 binaries.
In OpenWrt the complete userspace is compiled for this specific
architecture and support for 32 bit ARM applications is not needed.
This reduces the size and the attack surface for the systems.
On all other targets CONFIG_COMPAT is already deactivated.

This activates the CONFIG_ARM64_SW_TTBR0_PAN option for all arm64
kernels by default.
The CONFIG_ARM64_SW_TTBR0_PAN option prevents the kernel form accessing
user space memory directly. This makes it harder to exploit the kernel.
This is activated by default and was already activate on all other arm64
targets before.

The ZyXEL WSM20 aka Multy M1 is a cheap mesh router system by ZyXEL
based on the MT7621 CPU.
Specifications
==============
SoC: MediaTek MT7621AT (880MHz)
RAM: 256MiB
Flash: 128MiB NAND
Wireless: 802.11ax (2x2 MT7915E DBDC)
Ethernet: 4x 10/100/1000 (MT7530)
Button: 1x WPS, 1x Reset, 1x LED On/Off
LED: 7 LEDs (3x white, 2x red, 2x green)
MAC address assignment
======================
The MAC address assignment follows stock: The label MAC address is the LAN
MAC address, the WAN address is read from flash.
The WiFi MAC addresses are set in userspace to label MAC + 1 and label MAC
+ 2.
Installation (web interface)
============================
The device is cloud-managed, but there is a hidden local firmware upgrade
page in the OEM web interface. The device has to be registered in the
cloud in order to be able to access this page.
The system has a dual firmware design, there is no way to tell which
firmware is currently booted. Therefore, an -initramfs version is flashed
first.
1. Log into the OEM web GUI
2. Access the hidden upgrade page by navigating to
https://192.168.212.1/gui/#/main/debug/firmwareupgrade
3. Upload the -initramfs-kernel.bin file and flash it
4. Wait for OpenWrt to boot and log in via SSH
5. Transfer the sysupgrade file via SCP
6. Run sysupgrade to install the image
7. Reboot and enjoy
NB: If the initramfs version was installed in RAS2, the sysupgrade script
sets the boot number to the first partition. A backup has to be performed
manually in case the OEM firwmare should be kept.
Installation (UART method)
==========================
The UART method is more difficult, as the boot loader does not have a
timeout set. A semi-working stock firmware is required to configure it:
1. Attach UART
2. Boot the stock firmware until the message about failsafe mode appears
3. Enter failsafe mode by pressing "f" and "Enter"
4. Type "mount_root"
5. Run "fw_setenv bootmenu_delay 3"
6. Reboot, U-Boot now presents a menu
7. The -initramfs-kernel.bin image can be flashed using the menu
8. Run the regular sysupgrade for a permanent installation
Changing the partition to boot is a bit cumbersome in U-Boot, as there is
no menu to select it. It can only be checked using mstc_bootnum. To change
it, issue the following commands in U-Boot:
nand read 1800000 53c0000 800
mw.b 1800004 1 1
nand erase 53c0000 800
nand write 1800000 53c0000 800
This selects FW1. Replace "mw.b 1800004 1 1" by "mw.b 1800004 2 1" to
change to the second slot.
Back to stock
=============
It is possible to flash back to stock, but a OEM firmware upgrade is
required. ZyXEL does not provide the link on its website, but the link
can be acquired from the OEM web GUI by analyzing the transferred JSON
objects.
It is then a matter of writing the firmware to Kernel2 and setting the
boot partition to FW2:
mtd write zyxel.bin Kernel2
echo -ne "\x02" | dd of=/dev/mtdblock7 count=1 bs=1 seek=4 conv=notrunc

Current implementation needlessly creates both IPv4 and IPv6
sub-interfaces for single-stack IP types. Limit this only to selected IP
type. While at that, ensure that IP type is also passed to umbim during
"connect" phase. In addition, detect the actual established connection
type returned by umbim and set up subinterfaces according to that,
not to requested configuration. While at that, allow empty IP type explicitly,
interpreted as "any" according to MBIM specification.

Subsequent calls to 'umbim connect' do not have any effect if a failure
occured, and in such case an infinite loop without timeout is created,
leading to possibility of interface stuck at connecting forever.
Drop this loop, and issue MBIM disconnect properly, so netifd can
restart from scratch.
This issue can be observed with Sierra EM7455 at changing APN, which
causes network re-registration by default, and a MBIM transaction
timeout, which is resolved on next interface bringup by netifd.

This activates the following kernel options by default:
* CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_CPU
* CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_BOOTLOADER
With these option Linux will also use data from the CPU RNG e.g. RDRAND
and the bootloader to initialize the Linux RNG if such sources are
available.
These random bits are used in addition to the other sources, no other
sources are getting deactivated. I read that the Chacha mixer isn't
vulnerable to injected entropy, so this should not be a problem even if
these sources might inject bad random data.
The Linux kernel suggests to activate both options, Debian also
activates them. This does not increase kernel code size.

This applies commit 02ac9c94 to fix this OpenSSL Security Advisory
issued on 20th April 2023[1]:
Input buffer over-read in AES-XTS implementation on 64 bit ARM
(CVE-2023-1255)
==============================================================
Severity: Low
Issue summary: The AES-XTS cipher decryption implementation for 64 bit
ARM platform contains a bug that could cause it to read past the input
buffer, leading to a crash.
Impact summary: Applications that use the AES-XTS algorithm on the 64
bit ARM platform can crash in rare circumstances. The AES-XTS algorithm
is usually used for disk encryption.
The AES-XTS cipher decryption implementation for 64 bit ARM platform
will read past the end of the ciphertext buffer if the ciphertext size
is 4 mod 5 in 16 byte blocks, e.g. 144 bytes or 1024 bytes. If the
memory after the ciphertext buffer is unmapped, this will trigger a
crash which results in a denial of service.
If an attacker can control the size and location of the ciphertext
buffer being decrypted by an application using AES-XTS on 64 bit ARM,
the application is affected. This is fairly unlikely making this issue a
Low severity one.

It was brought to attention the Archer AX23 v1 fails to read jffs2 data
from time to time. While this is not reproducible on my unit, it is on

Reducing the SPI frequency does the trick. While it worked with at lest
40 MHz, opt for the cautious side and choose a save frequency of 25 MHz.
Apply the same treatment to the Mercusys MR70X which uses a similar
