[ath79]: Support for D-Link DCH-G020 (Z-Wave Hub)

For Developers
#9

Hi,

thank you for reply. I already have access to the serial console, but nothing prints me when I try to upgrade firmware via WebUI. And I also try to load firmware via Recovery Web UI, but it's also fail without any messege in console. I think I must first correct size of firmware and then it's prints me correct crc. Bellow this post you can find my console log output when I also try to load the firmware. Thanks for help.

Okay this is weird, I just checked the OEM image from the dlink ftp, and it seems that 0x22E38A3F (5701695) is actually the file size - 9 bytes. I'm sorry for not better documenting the process of making the factory image, this is really embarrassing...

The machine I used to build the image is located in another apartment, which I will not be visiting within the next couple weeks during the pandemic.

Maybe you could also try uploading an initramfs-image via tftp from uboot.

Which part of the serial console log is when you tried to update? I think I did not actually login to the console when attempting the update, just watched the log, maybe there is some output then, but you have probably tried already.

Sorry I couldn't help :pensive:

Hello,

Finnaly I have successfully uploaded openwrt firmware yesterday. To get correct CRC and upload openwrt firmware you must all do it in recovery mode (via Recovery Web UI). In first time you try to upload an image, then expected crc will be printed in serial console, but it`s also continue printing some same errors, so you must stop it and read it from the first lines (in my case some error text with 1d7e42e7=0!). Then this CRC (1d7e42e7) you need to update values in hex editor in this firmware from address 0x00000004 to 0x00000007. Restart again to recovery and again upload the image via Web UI. After few second in console and in web UI it must show some uploading counter, if not, it's better to wait e.g. 10 minutes and then restart to recovery and try again (second time is my successfull). After successful update, it's auto loaded into openwrt. Upper connector is set as WAN and bottom is LAN, so if you connect cable to LAN, you can now disconnect serial and connect to router by ssh (ssh root@192.168.1.1). And now you can for example install Luci web UI:

  • set correct IP, gateway, dns to get internet and set WAN port to LAN in /etc/config/network. My file is:
config interface 'loopback'
        option ifname 'lo'
        option proto 'static'
        option ipaddr '127.0.0.1'
        option netmask '255.0.0.0'

config interface 'lan'        
        option type 'bridge'
        option proto 'static'             
        option ifname 'eth0 eth1'      
        option ipaddr '192.168.2.150'
        option netmask '255.255.255.0'  
        option gateway '192.168.2.250'
        list dns '8.8.8.8'
  • restart service by: service network reload
  • update opkg and install Luci: opkg update && opkg install luci
  • enter luci web UI at 192.168.2.150

Thanks for your work! :slight_smile: I will try to share my efforts on ath79 as soon as I'm back home (probably within the next couple weeks).
Aside from WMAC address, factory image generation would be the only thing that's not yet solved.

Have you tried to figure out which type of crc (or something else) is used, and would you mind sharing your factory image for the purpose of testing?

// Edit: I've checked out the GPL release by D-Link for this gateway, and it turns out the checksum is actually nothing but the sum over all bytes after the 72 bytes header :slight_smile:
i.e. python -c 'print(hex(sum(bytearray(open("sysupgrade.bin", "r").read()))))' should match the checksum at 0x0004 in the header, now I just wonder whether someone could turn this into bash / sed / awk / ... without having to call python :innocent:

Also the kernel image size should probably be corrected according to /tool/image_header/image_header.c, though it seemed to work without doing that!?

// we must make sure the size of struct image_hdr is as same as the struct image_hdr in public_util.h
#define MAX_HEADER_LEN        	31
#define MAX_FW_LEN		15
#define MAX_REG_LEN		7

typedef struct{		
	unsigned long hdr_len;
	unsigned long check_sum;
	unsigned long total_size;
	unsigned long kernel_size;
	unsigned char header[MAX_HEADER_LEN + 1];
	unsigned char fw_ver[MAX_FW_LEN + 1];
	unsigned char fw_reg[MAX_REG_LEN + 1];	
}image_hdr;
#13

Thank you too for the really great work on this and I am very happy about your progress. I would not mind sharing my image, here is it: download link on uloz.to. By your investigation on CRC generating, so the CRC can be generated only once by firmware image? Also I can try to find bash/sed/awk alternative, but right know, I don't have much time, because of my newbord boy, we will see :). So I wish you good luck and have fun to your efforts on this.

#14

Meanwhile, I have found that the factory image format is actually consistent with DAP-1330 from the ar71xx target, building the images works automatically now.

@Seirix Feel free to test this before I rebase to master and consider making a PR :grinning:

http://sebastianschaper.net/openwrt/openwrt-ath79-generic-dlink_dch-g020-a1-squashfs-factory.bin
http://sebastianschaper.net/openwrt/openwrt-ath79-generic-dlink_dch-g020-a1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

Known issues:

  • This is still based on 19.07.2, a few things might (hopefully?) become easier upon rebasing to master

  • MAC addresses are in 17 bytes ASCII format, there is currently no dts binding for this. The current workaround is to use ifconfig in /board.d/02_network (I thought the wifi stuff should belong in /hotplug.d/10-ath9k-eeprom, but that script is not even called)

  • real-time clock: currently no driver available
    can we just keep it in the dts anyways, e.g. compatible = "pericom,pt7c43390"; just in case a driver will someday be available?

  • z-wave is working (run MinOZW as proof-of-concept), though I haven't figured out how feasible it would be to use extroot for having enough free space to install domoticz

  • I wonder if we can safely overwrite mydlink and data partitions for a little more free space?
    Maybe we could check which OEM partitions the emergency bootloader actually overwrites

  • is there / will there be a dts binding for the switch ports?
    So we can leave that out of board.d/02_network

Awesome work! Would it be possible to install it on A2 version of this unit? I've tried the firmware provided and I get a "header" error.

#16

Hi, I just checked the file again, and indeed it seemed to be an old version that I uploaded long before opening the pull request... The header generation was not yet working correctly at that time, I just built new images based on current master and updated the download files. Sorry, should have checked that earlier, thanks for letting me know :slightly_smiling_face:

The image should work for all A revisions of the device now. LuCI is included.

For using Z-Wave you'd have to set up extroot with a USB drive, as the Domoticz and openzwave packages are too big for the 16M flash of this device.

#17

Are these the updates files? Tried to flash them now and no luck, still a header error.

#18

That is very interesting, I have just flashed the factory.img again to Rev. A1 from the stock firmware (after login in with the 6-digit Pin Code from the label) and it worked.
In case you flashed using the bootloader recovery, it does not work with modern browsers, only IE etc., but then it shouldn't give a header error.

I have only seen the A1 revision in germany, and on the German D-Link FTP there is only "reva" firmware, which should usually work for all A revisions. Do you have any link to an official D-Link Firmware for A2, that you could successfully flash to your device? So I might have a look at the image format, and see if they changed anything :slightly_smiling_face:

// Edit: Checked on the D-Link EU ftp, there are versions A and A2 available, but the file in the reva archive is actually the same as on the German ftp, which is named "DCHG020A2..." so they are only offering A2 for all A revisions.

Could you check again that the file you downloaded contains the string HONEYBEE-FIRMWARE at the very beginning of the file? (not WZR-HP-G450H), just to make sure the download was not cached etc.

// Edit2: just realized my device booted into recovery instead of OpenWRT after flashing, will check that again.

#19

Thanks for the swift reply! I've downloaded the file again and it looks like it's cached, this is what I see with my hex viewer:

image
image960×580 21.4 KB

Also I can't really set it in the recovery mode (hold RESET button while inserting the power jack). It seems it gets stuck with just the red led on, I can't ping it via the network cable. Any ideas? Also I've flashed this firmware
ftp://ftp.dlink.de/dch/dch-g020/driver_software/DCH-G020_fw_reva_125b10_ALL_en_20160805.zip
It seems to be working (I get a countdown page with a reboot of this unit)

#20

This is indeed the old version, I checked the file on the server again, it is definitely updated, please donwload again, maybe using a different browser etc.

However I just wondered why my first attempt of flashing through the regular Web UI resulted in the device booting to recovery, but flashing to OpenWRT from recovery the second time worked flawlessly (with IE11, since new browsers don't support the recovery file upload correctly anymore). I guess I'll also check with my device initially used for development again.

#21

Success! I'll try adding my door sensor and alarm and see if it works :slight_smile:

You probably can't even install the required packages for extroot, as the kernel modules are statically linked and will not match the exact kernel version. When using OpenWRT snapshots, you have to hurry to install any required modules on the same day, as they will be rebuilt for a different kernel on the next day.

But this device is not even in the snapshots yet, Pull Request #2998 is still pending.
So, you either have to build it yourself (including all the packages for extroot, Domoticz, openzwave) or wait for the pull request to be merged (so you could use the official snapshot builds).

This is actually really annoying, but that's just the way it is with OpenWRT and newly-added devices...

#23

I understand, I'm quite happy that I can actually run OpenWRT on it, was thinking to just get rid of it as the cloud service for it is long gone. I'll probably start tinkering and building it myself with the required packages, thanks for the insight!

#24

Is it actually? Amazing, I wouldn't have expected them to render those hubs useless this quick.

I've never even tried to sign up for the cloud service, but that explains why I found so many of these hubs on ebay quite cheap over the last years :slightly_smiling_face:

I stumbled on those devices when looking into Z-Wave (for the Danfoss heating thermostats, as the current eq-3 System I'm using is garbage, it often fails and would leave the heating on full power over the weekend etc.), but the Z-Wave UZB Dongle was (and is) quite expensive, not even speaking of the official Danfoss Control Hubs... So I found this device with the same hardware as the UZB dongle, but a lot cheaper, because people throw them out on ebay since they can not use it with the crappy D-Link cloud service (which imho only supports the 3 different Z-Wave devices offered by D-Link).

The first thought was, just cut the usb traces and solder a usb cable to use the Z-Wave Dongle with a Raspberry Pi :innocent: But it turned out OpenWRT runs well on this device, also it has a great wifi range (also thought about using it for gluon / Freifunk).

Regarding Z-wave, there's basically the option to use Domoticz with openzwave, but that needs extroot for storage, or use it as a simple forwarder (e.g. USB over TCP? but that would be not much different to "cutting the traces", except it would consume even more power :slightly_smiling_face: )

I'd be happy about any solution to actually use Z-Wave on this device, but for now even the openzwave package became too big (they included device pictures). Currently I'm hoping the pull request will make into v20, since it will be a lot easier to install extroot on an official release. Hope this still happens before the winter comes :sweat_smile:

Great hack idea right there! I couldn't make it work at all even while creating a new account, setting up their rubbish app and even contacting support and trying gazillion versions of the firmware.
Turns out they screwed the cloud service in some way and they won't even bother with it anymore as the unit is discontinued. So you can imagine having bought the entire package, door sensor, sound alarm and a security camera, but no functional cloud and app :nauseated_face:
I ended up buying a Z-Wave USB stick (ouch costly) that I was running with a Pi4 and Home Assistant. Worked quite OK, but I wanted to free the Pi and use it on other projects hence why I'm researching in adding a bit of life to this crappy hub.
So you can imagine my surprise and excitemend on it even running OpenWRT :slight_smile:
I will keep lurking here for any possible updates.

#26

Since this device is now officially supported (at least in snapshots), I've cleaned up the wiki to remove most of the experimental stuff about creating factory images etc. :slightly_smiling_face:

@vasquez I was also successful to connect my Z-Wave devices to the hub, and - finally - turn this thing back into what it was meant to be :sweat_smile:

Current progress of documentation:
https://openwrt.org/toh/d-link/d-link_dch-g020_a1#controlling_z-wave_devices_via_domoticz

Just need to figure out how to set device permissions for ttyACM0 on reboot... Since there is no udev in OpenWRT, this happens via hotplug.d, but it seems the scripts are called only after the domoticz daemon would start, so it cannot access the Z-Wave controller in the first attempt upon reboot :thinking:

Guys, I'm doing something wrong, please help me.
I'm uploading to the hub this image: openwrt-ath79-generic-dlink_dch-g020-a1-squashfs-factory.bin
The upload works fine (using normal procedure or the recovery, same behavior) but after reboot I cannot find the Hub using ping (I've made a DHCP reservation for Hub's MAC Address).
What I'm doing wrong? Thanks

#28

OpenWRT uses 192.168.1.1 as the default IP address after flashing, with DHCP enabled.

Both Ethernet ports are defined as LAN for this device, so it will not automatically connect to your network via WAN port either (besides this would only result in a NAT cascade for devices connected to the router).

So, before connecting it to your network, connect it directly to your computer and ssh into 192.168.1.1 to update network settings via uci (there is unfortunately no LuCI in snapshot images, so this needs to be done via ssh), I agree this can be quite annoying...

Should be something like

uci set network.lan.ipaddress='192.168.xx.yy'
uci set network.lan.dns='192.168.xx.zz'
uci set network.lan.gateway='192.168.xx.zz'
uci set dhcp.lan.ignore='1'
uci commit
/etc/init.d/network reload

xx.zz being your main router's ip, yy the DCH-G020 ip.

You should then be able to

opkg update
opkg install luci
