I did some work on en7512, it is far from complete:
https://bitbucket.org/vzdor/en7512/src/master/

With the patch, you can compile linux 5 for it, serial communication works, there is simple ethernet driver. But in the driver, I do not see which port the packet came from. The packet looks no different is it from WAN or LAN port. There is "port" field in the ring structure, but it was not useful for incoming packets. So since I could not find programmers manual for the SoC, I've stopped working.

31

This SoC is based on the TrendChip platform later acquired by Ralink, which was then acquired by Mediatek. There is a tool called tcrevenge to unpack firmware files, not sure if this is applicable for this device as well. But the tclinux toolchain is probably no longer maintained, and due to the lack of documentation there probably will never be official OpenWrt support, yet Mediatek/EcoNet still sell these chips for VDSL routers.

32

The WAN port is a vlan, i.e. there are two vlans sitting on its own 1Gb PHYSICAL network interface (eth2) (vlan2-eth2.2 WAN and vlan1-eth2.1 for LAN)
