brcm47xx: image: build firmware for Asus WL-500g Deluxe

2017-12-29T22:18:19+00:00

It's a device based on BCM5365P (0x5365 package 0x00). This SoC has
USB 1.1 controller but device has two USB 2.0 parts. They are handled by
PCI-based controllers: 1106:3038 UHCI and 1106:3104 EHCI.

The target name does not need to included a revision
if all revisions are supported.
This target supports all revisions (v1, v2, v2.1).

brcm47xx: relocate the stack in loader

2017-10-11T19:36:24+00:00

By default we are reusing the stack provided by CFE, like it is intended
by CFE. On my WRT54GS it is located at 0x8043BF30, so a big kernel image
could overwrite it. Relocate it to a different memory region which is
still under the 8MB RAM, but in the higher area. We only need this
memory region for the stack of the loader, Linux will set up this
for its own.

brcm47xx: relocate loader to higher address

2017-10-11T19:36:24+00:00

The boot process on a WRT54GL works the following way:
1. CFE gets loaded by the boot rom from flash
2. CFE loads the loader from the flash and gzip uncompresses it
3. CFE starts the loader
4. The loader stores the FW arguments and relocates itself to
   BZ_TEXT_START (now 0x80600000)
5. The loader reads the Linux image from flash
6. The loader lzma decompresses the Linux image to LOADADDR (0x80001000)
7. The loader executes the uncompress Linux image at LOADADDR

The BZ_TEXT_START was set to 0x80400000 before. When the kernel gets
uncompressed and is bigger than BZ_TEXT_START - LOADADDR it overwrote
the loader which was currently uncompressing it and made the board
crash. Increase the BZ_TEXT_START my 2 MB to have more space for the
kernel. Even on 16MB RAM devices the memory goes till 0x80FFFFFF so this
should not be a problem.

brcm47xx: fix USB driver choice for Asus WL-500W

2017-02-15T22:43:19+00:00

BCM4704 SoC has only USB 1.1 core:
ssb: Core 3 found: USB 1.1 Hostdev (cc 0x808, rev 0x03, vendor 0x4243)
but this device actually comes with two USB 2.0 ports.

It appears embedded controller isn't used but instead there are two PCI
attached controllers (next to the BCM4321 wireless card):
1106:3038 VT82xx/62xx UHCI USB 1.1 Controller
1106:3104 USB 2.0

Choose a set of USB drivers which actually support this hardware.

This allows more feature complete images. Of course it affect the size,
e.g. enabling b43 bumped rootfs from 1569618 to 2029122 for me.
