- minimal built initramfs: 11MB vmlinux ELF -> 4.5MB vmlinuz
- ~5 seconds for kernel decompression, which was equivalent to the
additional time to load the uncompressed ELF from SPI NOR.
- Removes requirement for lzma-loader, which may have been causing some

TP-Link RE200 v4 is a wireless range extender with Ethernet and 2.4G and 5G
WiFi with internal antennas.
It's based on MediaTek MT7628AN+MT7610EN like the v2/v3.
Specifications
--------------
- MediaTek MT7628AN (580 Mhz)
- 64 MB of RAM
- 8 MB of FLASH
- 2T2R 2.4 GHz and 1T1R 5 GHz
- 1x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
- 8x LED (GPIO-controlled), 2x button
- UART connection holes on PCB (57600 8n1)
There are 2.4G and 5G LEDs in red and green which are controlled
separately.
MAC addresses
-------------
The MAC address assignment matches stock firmware, i.e.:
LAN : *:8E
2.4G: *:8D
5G : *:8C
MAC address assignment has been done according to the RE200 v2.
The label MAC address matches the OpenWrt ethernet address.
Installation
------------
Web Interface
-------------
It is possible to upgrade to OpenWrt via the web interface. Simply flash
the -factory.bin from OEM. In contrast to a stock firmware, this will not
overwrite U-Boot.
Recovery
--------
Unfortunately, this devices does not offer a recovery mode or a tftp
installation method. If the web interface upgrade fails, you have to open
your device and attach serial console.
Instructions for serial console and recovery may be checked out in
commit 6d6f36ae78 ("ramips: add support for TP-Link RE200 v2") or on
the device's Wiki page.

Currently the lzma-loader is placed in RAM at 32MB offset, which does not
make sense for devices with only 32MB RAM. If we adjust LZMA_TEXT_START to
24MB offset, then the lzma-loader can be used on those devices and still
about 24MB memory will be available for uncompressed image, which should be
enough for most use cases.

WIZnet WizFi630s board name is written slightly different it its OEM
OpenWrt firmware. This causes an incompatibility warning during flashing
with sysupgrade. This patch is adding the vendor board name to the

can use sysupgrade via command line or luci beside of TFTP.
Do not keep the OEM configuration during sysupgrade.

For the TP-Link 4M devices with tplink-v2-image recipe
(mktplinkfw2.c), there are two different flash layouts based
on the size of the (u)boot partition:
device uboot OEM firmware OpenWrt (incl. config)
tl-wr840n-v5 0x20000 0x3c0000 0x3d0000
tl-wr841n-v14 0x10000 0x3d0000 0x3e0000
In both cases, the 0x10000 config partition is used for the firmware
partition as well due to the limited space available and since it's
recreated by the OEM firmware anyway.
However, the TFTP flashing process will only copy data up to the
size of the initial (OEM) firmware size. Therefore, while we can
use the bigger partition to have additional erase blocks on the
device, we have to limit the image sizes to the TFTP limits.
So far, only one layout definition has been set up in mktplinkfw2.c
for 4M mediatek devices. This adds a second one and assigns them
to the devices so the image sizes are correctly restrained.

The version inside the compat file determines, if a firmware supports
a specific device. I have not yet fully understood, how this is checked,
but it only seems to indicate which devices are supported by a specific
version of the combined vendor firmware. Devices assume that subsequent
versions, starting with the version that initially added support for a
specific device, are always compatible.
The first compat version that added support for the EP-R6 was '21001:7',
but OpenWrt did use '21001:6' before. This is why the factory image could
not be flashed using the vendor software, but only using TFTP.
The compat version has been bumped by the vendor a few times, but more
devices have been added since (e.g. ER-10X). Because OpenWrt currently
only supports the ER-X, ER-X-SFP and EP-R6, the compat version is
incremented to the version that first supported the EP-R6, which is
'21001:7'.
This allows the factory image to be flashed on EP-R6 without TFTP.

This device has trouble extracting big kernel from flash,
and supports LZMA compressed kernels only.
Using OpenWrt kernel loader saves us 64 KB compared to the dictionary
size limiting workaround.
Factory image sizes (commit: 5f126c541a) with "CONFIG_ALL_KMODS=y":
- original ("-d23", default): 4784188 bytes, LZMA ERROR 1
- with "-d19": 4915260, LZMA ERROR 1
- with "-d18": 4915260, diff to original: +128 KB
- with "-d17": 4980796, diff to original: +192 KB
- with this patch: 4849724, diff to original: +64 KB
To save some CPU cycle, use minimal compression ("-a0") for the LZMA
compressed uImage.
The most robust solution would use a different loader,
which reads the compressed kernel directly from the flash.
