Martin Kennedy 90ad13c763 ath79: create APBoot-compatible image for Aruba AP-175 
As was done in commit e11d00d44c ("ath79: create Aruba AP-105 APBoot
compatible image"), alter the Aruba AP-175 image generation process so
OpenWrt can be loaded with the vendor Aruba APBoot. Since the
remainder of the explanation and installation process is identical,
continuing the quote from that commit:

This works by prepending the OpenWrt LZMA loader to the uImage and
jumping directly to the loader. Aruba does not offer bootm on these
boards.

This approach keeps compatibility to devices which had their U-Boot
replaced. Both bootloaders can boot the same image.

With this patch, new installations do not require replacing the
bootloader and can be performed from the serial console without
opening the case.

Installation
------------

1. Attach to the serial console of the AP-175.
   Interrupt autoboot and change the U-Boot env.

   $ setenv apb_rb_openwrt "setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1;
     setenv serverip 192.168.1.66;
     netget 0x84000000 ap175.bin; go 0x84000040"
   $ setenv apb_fb_openwrt "cp.b 0xbf040000 0x84000000 0x10000;
     go 0x84000040"
   $ setenv bootcmd "run apb_fb_openwrt"
   $ saveenv

2. Load the OpenWrt initramfs image on the device using TFTP.
   Place the initramfs image as "ap175.bin" in the TFTP server
   root directory, connect it to the AP and make the server reachable
   at 192.168.1.66/24.

   $ run apb_rb_openwrt

3. Once OpenWrt booted, transfer the sysupgrade image to the device
   using scp and use sysupgrade to install the firmware.

README.md

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!

Download

Built firmware images are available for many architectures and come with a package selection to be used as WiFi home router. To quickly find a factory image usable to migrate from a vendor stock firmware to OpenWrt, try the Firmware Selector.

If your device is supported, please follow the Info link to see install instructions or consult the support resources listed below.

An advanced user may require additional or specific package. (Toolchain, SDK, ...) For everything else than simple firmware download, try the wiki download page:

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.

Related Repositories

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).
