Yeah, AQR is C45 only so they dont have a C22 ID.
You can confirm its ID with: mdio 9* mmd 0:1 3
IOCTL issue was fixed way back in March, I recently used tha AQR loader to test something so its still working.
mdio does seem to find it and the ID corresponds with AQR111B0:

Great, so if the IOCTL patch is there for NSS-DP and firmware blob then it should work
Mmmh, the nss-dp patch for the IOCTL is there (0007-NSS-DP-implement-ethernet-IOCTL-s.patch) in the source code but aq-fw-download won't work.
I assume there is then something wrong with the device tree for eth5, would that be a possibility?
Not really, as long as netdev exists and PHY is attached to it, it should work.
Sure but since ethtool is not working I can't be sure if linux really can see that eth5 is attached to the correct PHY.
Can you post your current DTS?
Sure, it's going to be a bit long:

Yeah, DP nodes are broken, you need to pass a phandle for PHY-s, the old crappy QCA way to manually do things has been removed
Like it's done (only) for dp6, phy-handle?
dp6: dp6 {
device_type = "network";
compatible = "qcom,nss-dp";
qcom,id = <6>;
reg = <0x3a007000 0x3fff>;
qcom,mactype = <1>;
local-mac-address = [000000000000];
qcom,link-poll = <1>;
qcom,phy-mdio-addr = <7>;
phy-mode = "sgmii";
phy-handle = <&aqr111_7>;
mdio-bus = <&mdio>;
};
If not, could you point me to a device that does it? (I used the QNAP 301w as a template for dp6)
Yes, you pass the phandle for PHY via phy-handle.
You can remove the link poll and mdio-addr as they are not used.
Thanks a million @robimarko, now it work! The 5Gbit port and ethtool for all the ports.

I clean it up and then try add the mbn header to the firmware and flash it to the ethphyfw partition.

The 5Gbit port is now mostly works thanks to @robimarko's help.
I pushed the branch with the changes to my github OpenWrt repo, branch rax120v2-5G-port. Maybe someone with the device could give it a go?
It's @jewest code adjusted to have eth5 mostly working and ethtool does now work for all the ports.
Limitation of the 5GbE port:
- If the other side is capable of 10GbE it will auto negotiate to 10G which will not work of course.
Tested with a QNAP QSW-M1204-4C switch. When using a QNAP QNA-UC5G1T USB adapter auto-neg works since this adapter can only handle up to 5GbE. - You can set the speed manually using
ethtoolbut only 5G and 2.5G work
E.g. set to 5Gbit:ethtool -s eth5 speed 5000 - When trying to set to 1G the following error occurs:
# ethtool -s eth5 speed 1000 duplex full [ 174.313489] nss-dp 3a007000.dp6 eth5: PHY Link is down [ 177.433632] nss-dp 3a007000.dp6 eth5: PHY Link up speed: -1
[Addition]: For the 5GbE port to work one has to upload the firmware for the AQR111B0. For it to work you have to include qca-ssdk-shell in your build:
- Boot stock firmware and locate the AQR firmware in
/lib/firmware/. The filename for me isAQR-G3_v4.3.C-AQR_DNI_DR-EQ35AX8-R-prov1_ID23888_VER1311.cld - Copy file to safety
- In OpenWrt copy it to
/lib/firmware, the filename seems not to matter (maybe shorten it
) - Still in OpenWrt upload the firmware:
aq-fw-download /lib/firmware/AQR-G3_v4.3.C-AQR_DNI_DR-EQ35AX8-R-prov1_ID23888_VER1311.cld eth5 7 - Reset autoneg via register:
ssdk_sh debug phy set 7 0x4004c441 0x8
@kirdes : I tried to follow your advise in how to flash the AQR firmware to the mtd but failed. What I tried:
python2 mkheader.py 0x7e00000 0x13 AQR-G3_v4.3.C-AQR_DNI_DR-EQ35AX8-R-prov1_ID23888_VER1311.cld aqr_5.5.6.mbn
and then flashed it:
nandwrite /dev/mtd27 --autoplace --pad /tmp/aqr_5.5.6.mbn
... but after reboot u-boot reports:
NAND read: device 0 offset 0x7e00000, size 0x80000
qpic_nand_read_oob: ecc failure while reading from 7e00000
NAND read from offset 7e00000 failed -74
Would you have any idea what the case could be?

Can you try to erase the partition first and use nandwrite without --autoplace and --pad option?
Without the --pad option it won't work:
nandwrite /dev/mtd27 /tmp/aqr_5.5.6.mbn
Input file is not page-aligned. Use the padding option.
nandwrite: error!: Data was only partially written due to error
error 0 (No error information)
Can you try using mtd write (I know bad idea on nand, but actually it's SPI-NOR)
This is what zyxel is doing during the fw_upgrade (/usr/bin/fw_upgrade)
mtd -e write ...
Hi all,
Sorry for the question but its kinda hard for me to get a view on what the state of the build is from this thread for this router.
Is it at a point where its stable enough and has support for all or most feature that its worth buying?
thanks
Following:
I have 2 RAX 120 but V1 
currently in use as as APs, facilitated by Netgear's "VLAN by tag group" and using the 5G port as trunk but there are lots of limitations in this work around.
They'll likely continue in service as APs but I'll like to have OpenWrt on them instead due to real VLAN support in OpenWrt and the horrible limitations in my "VLAN by tag group workaround.
When the state of the build becomes reasonably reliable, I'll be prepared to flash on my RAX 120 V1 at the risk of ending up with a brick
Do not even try, v1 SoC is completely unsupported upstream and ath11k will never support it
Thanks for the reply @robimarko, not sure what do with the units if OpenWrt won't be supported someday
