Banana Pi R1, unable to create a working Image

Ahoy ahoy.
I got a Banana Pi R1 and i'd like to try it out again.
I have used it in the past already, and always experienced the same issue.
When i create a image for the Lamobo R1, only selecting LuCi as an additional component, i am later on not able to access the device without heavily modifying and generating some kind of /etc/config/network config before.
Unfortunately, after the image is written, there is no /etc/config/network on the partition. Is that a bug? Because without a generic or default /etc/config/network there is no way to access the device, especially for people with less knowledge. For all other targets such a file is being created. Only for this target somehow it's not.

I have cloned from master branch.
When i use some of these pre-built 19.07 images for this device it works without issues.

Yes, this is a bug and not your fault.
It's been a long time someone had their hands on that board and as it comes with a b53 Broadcom switch we may have to re-write things so they work well with DSA (previously, due to lack of DSA in OpenWrt, we were using swconfig-based driver and userland to configure the switch chip despite there being upstream support for DSA with that chip).

Please share the output of the following commands:

dmesg
ip link show

I suspect we need to change the way the default configuration is generated now that we are using DSA:

Thanks :slight_smile: I have connected through UART using default settings, so i'll provide you dmesg and ip link show

Please apply the attached patch to your OpenWrt tree and build again. This should result in the Broadcom BCM53xxx switch being detected during boot and lan1...4 and wan network interfaces should appear.

https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/openwrt/patch/YTve5pCYUcn1vT7I@makrotopia.org/

Thanks a lot! If you don't mind, could you give me a brief instruction on how to apply the patch, after having cloned the master branch from git?

I've also pushed the change into my staging tree, so you can do this in you OpenWrt tree:

git fetch https://git.openwrt.org/openwrt/staging/dangole.git
git checkout FETCH_HEAD

Thanks a lot for your reply. I've tried that out, unfortunately still experiencing the same issue.

Please confirm the top commit on your tree is

commit 9ebd323d269bbbac0fb0e39eda60b40f5d9fe5e8 (HEAD -> master, staging/main)
Author: Daniel Golle <daniel@makrotopia.org>
Date:   Fri Sep 10 23:02:15 2021 +0100

    sunxi: bring up DSA b53 switch on Lamobo R1
    
    Build cortexa7 subtarget with DSA driver for MDIO-connected Broadcom
    BCM53xxx switches. This is needed for the Lamobo R1 aka. BananaPi
    BPi-R1 board which comes with such a switch IC.
    
    Remove old swconfig driver from target kernel config as the only board
    using it is now supported by the DSA driver.
    
    No changes to device tree are needed as upstream DTS already got a
    DSA switch definition and we are just using that upstream source.
    
    Update default network config of the Lamobo R1 to create lan bridge
    with all 4 lan ports.
    
    Introduce DEVICE_COMPAT_VERSION for the board to inform users about
    having the re-create their network configuration and add device alias
    as Bananapi BPi-R1 while at it.
    
    Signed-off-by: Daniel Golle <daniel@makrotopia.org>

And please also share dmesg and ifconfig output of the newly build firmware which includes the patch.

Thank you for helping to fix this!

Alright! Thanks a lot in advance.

HEAD is now at 9ebd323d26 sunxi: bring up DSA b53 switch on Lamobo R1

Even with static IP addressing nor reachability.

I hope this helps :slight_smile:

The logs already look pretty good, the bcm53xx switch is being detected and 4 lan ports and wan port is added and link state seems to work.
However, there are 0 RX packets total on all switch ports while eth0 got 139 packets, so something is still wrong with DSA.

Please tcpdump -vvv -i eth0 so first of all we will see what's going on there. Also would be interesting to know if TX sent out on any of the ports is actually sent or not (so we know if only RX is broken or both ways are).

I also wonder if you could try other OS with recent kernel on this board (e.g. armbian) and see how Ethernet ports are setup -- because the DSA switch description was added a long time ago in 2016 already:

Maybe @ffainelli can help us to understand why it doesn't work with OpenWrt now that we are using the driver from vanilla Linux (and have dropped swconfig)...

5.4 does not enable Broadcom tags that was done with commit 8fab459e69abfd04a66d76423d18ba853fced4ab upstream. This means that you should be configuring a a VLAN aware (vlan_filtering=1) br-lan bridge which has all of the LAN and WAN ports included in that bridge in order to push a VLAN configuration. Then you will need to create two (or more) separate VLANs to isolate the LAN and WAN traffic. There won't be any traffic coming and/out of the br-lan interface because of the lack of Broadcom tags, all of the traffic will be on eth0.1 and/or eth0.2 which are responsible for "terminating" VLAN traffic. This is highly undesirable and it was fixed later on.

If you can move to a later kernel like 5.10, then Broadcom tags are enabled by default and you should be able to use br-lan in a "normal" way, that is, assign it an IP address and be able to get traffic. In that scenario, you only need to add the LAN ports to the bridge and leave the WAN interface alone.

I will turn on my Lamobo R1 tonight to make sure nothing is badly broken with 5.4, 5.10 and current upstream.

As it sounded like moving to Linux 5.10 can just solve all our problems, I've updated my staging tree to build Linux 5.10 for the sunxi target and briefly run-tested on another Cortex-A7-based device. Looks like it works all fine.

Please re-fetch my staging tree:

git fetch https://git.openwrt.org/openwrt/staging/dangole.git
git checkout FETCH_HEAD

and also switch on experimental kernel in menuconfig:

Hey friends! Thanks for the advice. Using the 5.10 testing kernel and using the staging tree from @daniel it's working fine now!

Thank you for reporting back, I will push testing support for 5.10 to the main tree now.
@ffainelli Can you name the commits we need to backport for the switch to work with Linux 5.4 (because that should then go into the 21.02 branch as well)?

Great to see that 5.10 works! For 5.4 you would want to back port the following upstream commits:

d965a5432d4c net: dsa: b53: Ensure the default VID is untagged
df373702bc0f net: dsa: b53: Always use dev->vlan_enabled in b53_configure_vlan()
8fab459e69ab net: dsa: b53: Enable Broadcom tags for 531x5/539x families
4d776482ecc6 net: dsa: Get information about stacked DSA protocol
1c5ad5a94038 net: dsa: b53: Set untag_bridge_pvid
ed409f3bbaa5 net: dsa: b53: Configure VLANs while not filtering

There may be some additional DSA dependencies for the last two commits within the DSA framework.

Thanks a lot to all of you guys.
What do i have to consider in order to build OpenWrt for my Lamobo R1 in the future? Do i have to follow the same steps, or can i simply use the master branch?

Thank you very much!!
