The cameo based RTL83xx devices have a simple U-Boot that only
supports gzip compression. Actual models are mainly D-Link
DGS-1210 and the Apresia Light GS120GT-SS. Reduce the image
size by ~1MB by switching over to lzma compression and rt-loader.

There is currently a mismatch in the detection of the chip type.
rt-loader and the kernel give different revisions. E.g.
rt-loader: Running on RTL9313 (chip id 6567A) with 256MB
kernel: Realtek RTL9313 rev B (6567) SoC with 256 MB
Realtek internal version numbering is
- for RTL838x: 1=A, 2=B, ...
- for others: 0=A, 1=B, ...
rt-loader does not differentiate that. Adapt the calculation to
give a consistent picture.

The GS1920-24HPv1 is a switch with 24 copper ports and 4 combo SFP/copper
ports and PoE on the first 24 ports.
Specifications:
---------------
* SoC: Realtek RTL8292M
* Flash: 16 MiB SPI flash
* RAM: 128 MiB
* Ethernet: 24x 10/100/1000 Mbps
* Buttons: 1x "Reset" button
* UART: 1x serial header, standard DCE pinout (Tx = 2, Rx = 3, Gnd = 5);
9600 baud, 8n1, +- 5.6V logic levels
* SFP: 4 combo copper/SFP ports
* PoE: 24x
* Fans: ADT7468 fan controller
Works:
------
- (24) RJ-45 ethernet ports
- Switch functions
- Buttons
- LEDs (partial support, the wrong LEDs light up)
- Manual fan control
Not yet enabled:
----------------
- PoE (requires patches to realtek-poe to support i2c)
- Combo ports (link is up, but no data is transferred)
Fans:
-----
After boot, the fans are running in full speed mode. You can interact
with the fan controller at /sys/class/hwmon/
Installation:
-------------
This device uses ZyNOS instead of Linux, this makes installation a bit
more cumbersome. Serial console is required!
1. Set the switch to boot from the first image. This step is crucial,
it will fail to boot if this is not set properly.
2. Connect to the switch using serial and interrupt the boot process
to enter debug/recovery mode.
3. Load the OpenWrt initramfs image via XMODEM. You need to obtain an
unlock code, based on your MAC address, first. See the excellent write
up at https://www.ixo.de/info/zyxel_uclinux/ for details. Replace
unlock_code in the commands below by the code obtained.
After running ATBA5, the terminal needs to be closed and re-opened
with 115200 baud. This speeds up the file transfer significantly!
The file length in bytes need to be given instead of file_length below.
You also need an XMODEM upload utility like "lrzsz-sx -X" to transfer
the file. Start the XMODEM upload after running the ATUPxxxx command:
> ATEN1,unlock_code
> ATBA5
> ATUP80100000,file_length
> ATGO80100000
4. Wait for OpenWrt to boot. Once this is done, transfer the loader binary
and the sysupgrade image to "/tmp" using scp.
5. Install OpenWrt permanently by running the following two commands on
the switch (over SSH):
> mtd write /tmp/loader.bin loader
> mtd write /tmp/sysupgrade.bin firmware
6. Reboot the switch and enjoy OpenWrt.
NB: You do not need to touch the loader binary unless it's recommended.
The loader is not part of a regular sysupgrade file and will be left
untouched. The boot loader only checks if the loader is valid to be
able to boot.
Recovery/ Return to stock:
--------------------------
Just spam the "u" key during (or "z" for 9600 baud) during memory testing
to trigger a recovery XMODEM upload at 115200 baud. A standard OEM upgrade
image works properly.

Add support for the Edgecore ECS4100-12PH, an 8-port 802.3bt PoE Gigabit
Ethernet switch with 2 combo RJ45/SFP and 2 SFP ports.
Hardware:
* SoC: RTL8393M
* RAM: 256MiB
* Flash: 32MiB SPI-NOR
* Ethernet:
* 8x GbE RJ45 PoE (external RTL8218B)
* 2x GbE RJ45 / SFP combo (external RTL8214FC)
* 2x SFP (external RTL8214FC)
* Console: RJ45 RS232 port on front panel
* PoE: Nuvoton M0516 + 2x Broadcom BCM59121 PSE
Installation via bootloader:
* open serial console (baud rate 115200)
* interrupt boot process by pressing any key during boot
* boot the OpenWrt initramfs:
# rtk network on
# tftpboot 0x8f000000 /tftpboot/openwrt-realtek-rtl839x-edgecore_ecs4100-12ph-initramfs-kernel.bin
# bootm
* copy openwrt-realtek-rtl839x-edgecore_ecs4100-12ph-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
to /tmp and use sysupgrade to install it:
# sysupgrade /tmp/openwrt-realtek-rtl839x-edgecore_ecs4100-12ph-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
Even though U-Boot claims the switch is based on the RTL8392M SoC, my
device is based on the RTL8393M SoC. I have confirmed this by removing
the heatsink, and the Linux kernel agrees with this. Therefore the DTS
has the rtl8393_ prefix.

Add a new recipe 'rt-loader-no-uimage' that passes the kernel load
address to rt-loader, causing it to use that instead of it's initial run
address.
The usual behavior is fine for uImages where the load address is
predefined in the header, U-boot loads the image to that address and
then runs it, rt-loader just takes over that address. For non-uImage
instead, the address is tightly coupled to where the image has been
transferred during serial or TFTP upload. This may not be possible on
several devices. Passing a separate kernel load address to rt-loader
decouples that and avoids taking the pain to change the load address of
the kernel itself.

rt-loader currently has two operation modes, piggy-backed and
standalone. In standalone mode, the kernel load address is read from the
uImage in flash. In piggy-backed mode, rt-loader instead uses its
initial run address (aka run address during first run) as the kernel
load address. This is safe and works fine for all devices either using
U-boot or having no issue uploading an image to the default kernel load
address 0x80100000.
To extend usecases, allow to specify a kernel load address when
building rt-loader. In this case, rt-loader uses this address instead of
the address inferred at runtime.
On certain Zyxel devices, this allows to upload and boot an rt-loader
piggy-backed image to an alternate address but keep the default kernel
load address of 0x80100000. BootExt on these devices occupies memory
above and will crash during transfer when this address is used as upload
location. Using this extension, the image can be uploaded to e.g.
0x80300000 and rt-loader will use 0x80100000 as the final load address.
This avoid taking the pain the adjust the load address of the kernel
itself.

This device is very similar to the already supported XGS1210-12 A1. For
now, only revision A1 is supported (not marked on the label).
Hardware:
- RTL9302B SoC
- 16 MiB NOR flash
- 128 MiB DDR3 SDRAM
- 8x 1G RJ45 (RTL8218D)
- 2x 2.5G RJ45 (2x RTL8226)
- 2x SFP+ (supporting 1G/2.5G/10G)
- 3.3V UART serial (115200 baud 8N1) on the right side of the case
(from bottom to top: GND, RX, TX, VCC)
It is originally an unmanaged switch, so there are a few differences:
- No reset button
- Different partition layout: There is some reserved space in the middle
of the flash which might be used by the bootloader for flash testing.
The remaining space in between is used for OpenWrt using mtd-concat.
The largest contiguous area is at the beginning, allowing a maximum
kernel size of 7 MiB.
- No individual MAC address: This device ships with an empty U-Boot
environment. When an OpenWrt squashfs image is booted for the first
time, a random MAC address will be written to the environment (but
only if the environment has been initialized from the bootloader
before and contains the default MAC address).
Steps to boot initramfs image via network:
- Configure a TFTP server to provide the OpenWrt initramfs image
- Connect to device using serial (see hardware information above)
- Power on the device and enter U-Boot using Esc when prompted
- Run the following commands (adjust as necessary):
# rtk network on
# tftpboot 0x84f00000 192.168.1.100:openwrt-xgs1010-initramfs.bin
# bootm
Installation on flash:
- Boot initramfs image as described above
- Now is a good time to create a backup of all flash partitions! You'll
need this if you want to revert to the unmanaged factory firmware at
some point.
- Use sysupgrade to install OpenWrt
- After restart enter U-Boot again and set the boot command:
# setenv bootcmd 'rtk network on; bootm 0xb4900000'
# saveenv
# run bootcmd
Note: The command "rtk network on" is only needed because the drivers
currently rely on some setup by the bootloader (without this the RJ45
ports don't work). If the drivers improve in the future, it should be
removed (i.e. change the boot command to "bootm 0xb4900000").
Reverting to factory firmware:
- Write back your backup of the firmware partition (or write just the
fwconcat1 partition, and erase the other two fwconcat partitions)
- Change the boot command back to "boota" (or just erase the u-boot-env
partition so the default gets used)

The A1 and B1 devices are largely the same. The differences
seem to be:
- RTL8218D (A1) vs RTL8218E (B1) PHY for the eight 1 Gbps TP ports
- Aquantia (A1) vs RTL8261N (B1) PHY for the three 10 Gbps TP ports
RTL8218D/E share the same driver and support was added already by
commit c8c187f0f0 ("realtek: add support for RTL8218E").
The RTL8261N is also already supported but it's located at
different addresses compared to the A1 device. This requires
the device tree to be split. As a result, the devices are require
different images.
I found the smi addresses on the forum:
https://forum.openwrt.org/t/support-for-rtl838x-based-managed-switches/57875/3622
And I can conform on my B1 device that this is working.

Zyxel labels their switch revisions A1, B1, ... and not v1, v2, ...
Rename the devices as such in OpenWrt to match the labels. Of note:
the first (A1) revision is never labeled as such on the label, just
in the web UI. Provide compatibles for seamless sysupgrade.
For a recent overview of Zyxel GS1900 series revisions, see the

A new version of the ZyXEL XGS1210-12 has been discovered in
the wild. It includes at least two known hardware changes
- lan9/lan10 use RTL8221B instead of RTL8226
- lan9/lan10 use different SMI busses
Pave the new device the way by splitting the existing DTS.
According to the vendor website the models are named
- A1 (first version): not explicetly labeled
- B1 (second version): Label Rev. B1 on device
Rename the current OpenWrt device definition to A1 as it was
made for the first version. To stay compatible with older
installations, add the old device name to the list of
supported devices.

The rt-loader currently only supports booting piggy backed lzma
compressed kernels. This requires a data layout where the kernel
directly follows the loader. That might not be sufficient for
more complex flash layouts.
Especially bootbase devices (like ZyXEL GS1920) will need some
kind of chain loading that needs to be explored yet.
Enhance the rt-loader as follows:
- Allow to build as standalone version
- In this case a flash start address is given
- During boot loader will search the ROM starting from that address
- If it finds a uImage this will be loaded into RAM
- Afterwards it will be decompressed to its load address
- While we are here add uncompressed uImage support
As always the implementation tries to be as simple as possible.
- uImage detection works without magics
- uImage will be loaded to highest possible memory address
- Documentation in Makefile has been adapted accordingly
Funny side fact: A standalone rt-loader can chain load a piggy
backed rt-loader from flash.
During bootup loader will show

The bootloader on these devices uses 0x81000000 as load address for the
compressed image. Since the kernel uses a load address 0x80100000, this
only leaves a space of 15 MiB for the uncompressed image. For larger
images, the compressed data starts to get overwritten, and at some point
the boot will fail:
## Booting image from partition ... 0
## Booting kernel from Legacy Image at 81000000 ...
Version: 9.9.9.9
Created: 2025-08-07 14:56:09 UTC
Data Size: 6756645 Bytes = 6.4 MB
Checksum ... OK
Uncompressing ... LZMA: uncompress or overwrite error 1 - must RESET board to recover
Currently, initramfs images with default config are already over the
limit. And while they still happen to work regardless, adding additional
packages easily pushes the size so much that the boot fails.
Fix this by switching to rt-loader (which relocates the data to the
upper end of the RAM before decompression). The switch includes regular
kernel images to avoid this becoming an issue again in the future.

Some known RTL93xx devices like the Linksys LGS328C or LGS352C are
NAND based. These require additional drivers and packages (e.g. UBI).
The current subtargets are already taylored down for devices with
only 16MB flash. Adding features that are not used will only make
the storage situation more complicated.
Add two new subtargets for RTL93xx that include the basic NAND, UBI
and MTD features. To achieve this do the following:
- Create new subtarget folders
- Copy the existing config and makefiles over
- Add the basic additional features
- Mark them as SOURCE-ONLY
- Add empty image makefiles
- Remove unneded NAND/MTD features from existing configs

To explore the stock vendor firmware, there are 2 avenues to gain root
access. This is not necessary to install OpenWrt, but is here for
reference.
Root access via serial
----------------------
1. ctrl+t
2. password: switchrtk
3. press 's' for shell
Root access via SSH
-------------------
1. ctrl+t
2. password: switchrtk
3. sys command sh
4. log in with your username+password
5. ctrl+t
6. password: switchrtk
7. press 's' for shell
Credit to https://forum.openwrt.org/t/hasivo-switches/151758/174 for rooting instructions.
Installing OpenWrt
------------------
1. Connect to UART. UART requires soldering an RJ45 connector to the
console footprint on the board. The header is on the top right of
this image: 4d2ab97fad.jpeg
2. Set computer IP to 192.168.0.111.
3. Enter bootloader by pressing esc key during boot.
4. Enter password 'Hs2021cfgmg'.
5. Type 'XXXX'.
6. setenv bootcmd 'rtk network on; bootm 0xb4300000'

The bootloader of many Realtek switches only supports gzipped kernel images.
With limited flash space that might get critical in future versions. For better
compression allow support for compressed images. For this a new loader was
developed. Several ideas have been taken over from the existing lzma loader
but this has been enhanced to make integration simpler. What is new:
- Loader is position independent. No need to define load addresses
- Loader identifies device memory on its own
- Loader uses "official" upstream kernel lzma uncompress
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/lib/decompress_unlzma.c
- Loader uses "official" UNMODIFIED nanoprintg that is used by several
bare metal projects. https://github.com/charlesnicholson/nanoprintf
Compiled the loader ist just under 12KiB and during boot it will show:

At the time of this commit, all ethernet ports work under OpenWrt,
including the various NBaseT modes, SFP+ slots are supported with i2c bus.
Installation
--------------
* Connect serial as per the layout above. Connection parameters: 115200 8N1.
* Navigate to 'Management' in the OEM web interface and click on 'Firmware upgrade'
to the left.
* Upload the OpenWrt initramfs image, and wait till the switch reboots.
* Connect to the device through serial and change the U-boot boot command.
> fw_setenv bootcmd 'rtk network on; boota'
* Reboot, scp the sysupgrade image to /tmp, verify the checksum and flash it:
> sysupgrade openwrt-realtek-rtl930x-Zyxel_xgs1210-12-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
* Upon reboot, you have a functional OpenWrt installation. Leave the bootcmd
value as is - without 'rtk network on' the switch will fail to initialise
the network.
Debug
------------
* Connect serial as per the layout above. Connection parameters: 115200 8N1.
* A tftp server is requiered, tftpd-hpa works well.
* Power the device, at U-Boot start rapidly hit Esc key to stop autoboot
* Enable network:
> rtk network on
* Change ip address (default is 192.168.1.1):
> setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.6
* Download initramfs:
> tftpboot 0x84f00000 192.168.1.111:openwrt-realtek-rtl930x-Zyxel_xgs1210-12-initramfs-kernel.bin
* Boot loaded file:
> bootm 0x84f00000
This prodecudre also apply to the sock firmware with the file XGS1210-12_V2.00(ABTY.1)C0.bix.
More information can be found on the page of XGS1250-12 as they share the same base.

The TP-Link TL-ST1008F is an 8-port multi-gig switch with 8x SFP+ ports
which support 1G/2.5G/10G speeds. Out of the box it is an unmanaged
switch but with RTL9303 and sufficient RAM + Flash it easily can run as
a managed Linux switch.
Hardware:
- Realtek RTL9303 Switch SoC
- Winbond 25Q256JVFQ (32MB flash)
- Samsung K4B4G1646E-BYMA (512MB DDR3 SDRAM)
- TCA9534 GPIO extender to control the port LEDs
- 8x SFP+ 1/2.5/10G slot
- Serial: 3V3 logic, 115200 8N1
- 5-pin JTAG
- physical tri-state switch (used by stock firmware for port speed
config)
- 24-LED port speed matrix
- robust full-metal case
Power is supplied via a 12V 2A standard barrel connector.
There are THT holes on the PCB for serial console next to the flash chip
and JTAG pads. Serial uses 3V3 logic and standard 115200-8N1 config.
Pinout is labeled on the PCB.
All ports/connectors and LEDs are on the back, only Power LED is on the
front.
Hints before flashing
----------------------
* It is recommended to backup the stock flash contents before proceeding.
Backup can be done from U-Boot (with memory display), from OpenWrt
initramfs or probably with SPI flash programmer.
There is no stock recovery functionality.
* Use a small image for RAM boot or first flash. Since you need to use
ymodem, this is really slow and takes time.
* This does not keep the dual-partition layout for firmware to have more
space available for a single OpenWrt installation.
Initial flashing
----------------------
The stock U-boot has broken networking thus no TFTP available. Serial
transfer only.
1. Open device and connect serial as per layout and settings
(recommended to use picocom, ymodem not working with minicom)
2. Connect power to device and press Esc when prompted to enter
the U-Boot console.
3. Boot initramfs
* in the U-Boot console:
loady 0x82000000 (load OpenWrt image via ymodem)
CTRL-A CTRL-S <initramfs.bin> (specify initramfs image for
picocom to upload)
bootm 0x82000000 (boot initramfs from RAM)
(Just to be on the safe side, backup your flash now while RAM-booted)
4. Connect network to your device
5. Upload the sysupgrade image (e.g. with scp)
6. Do sysupgrade
There's no need to adjust the bootcmd in U-Boot. Networking is running
fine once the realtek driver initialized everything in OpenWrt. No
functional difference with running 'rtk network on' within U-Boot
before. Running this even fails and returns with an error.
Return to stock
------------------
This only works if you did a backup of the flash before flashing
OpenWrt. Stock dump then can be flashed from within U-Boot or OpenWrt.
There is no vendor firmware image because this is an unmanaged switch!
CAUTION: Make sure to not overwrite the U-Boot partition(s). If you do
not have a flash programmer, you may not be able to debrick
your device then.

Add support for V3 of the Engenius EWS2910P PoE switch. Like its v1
brother, This is an RTL8380 based switch with two SFP slots, and PoE
802.3af one every RJ-45 port.
Unlike its older brother, the max budget is 55W instead of 61.6 W.
Investigation into the communication protocol with the PoE controller
is ongoing, though it appears the vendor firmware configures the PSE
with a per-port budget of 30.0W.
Specifications:
---------------
* SoC: Realtek RTL8380M
* Flash: 32 MiB SPI flash Macronix MX25L25635E
* RAM: 256 MiB (As reported by bootloader)
* Ethernet: 8x 10/100/1000 Mbps with PoE
2x SFP slots
* Buttons: 1 "Reset" button on front panel
1 "LED mode: button on front panel
1 "On/Off" Toggle switch on the back
* Power: 48V-54V DC barrel jack
* UART: 1 serial header (JP1) with populated 2.54mm pitch header
Labeled GRTV for ground, rx, tx, and 3.3V respectively
* PoE: 1 STM ST32... microcontroller (U15)
1 RTL8238B PSE controller
Works:
------
- (8) RJ-45 ethernet ports
- Switch functions
- LEDs and buttons
Not yet enabled:
----------------
- Power-over-Ethernet (requires realtek-poe support for RTL8232B)
Install via web interface:
-------------------------
The factory firmware will accept and flash the initramfs image. It is
recommended to flash to "Partition 0". Flashing to "Partition 1" is
not supported at this point.
The factory web GUI will show the following warning:
" Warning: The firmware version is v0.00.00-c0.0.00
The firmware image you are uploading is older than the current
firmware of the switch. The device will reset back to default
settings. Are you sure you want to proceed?"
This is expected when flashing OpenWrt. After the initramfs image
boots, flash the -sysupgrade using either the commandline or LuCI.
Install via serial console/tftp:

When the Engenius EWS-2910P was added, only v1 was known. Move the
common parts to a dtsi, and split up the support to acccount for the
hardware version.
On v3, for example, the root partition uses a different uImage magic.
Add a "engenius,ews2910p-v1" compatible, while leaving the legacy
"engenius,ews2910p" to also mean v1.
