Hm,there is gotta be a way to read the registers directly from the switch like I did.
Well,I am trying to think of a way to read them from OpenWrt since ar71xx already has them set.
The utility I used is some UBNT home cooked that was left in the firmware.
Ethtool offers to dump registers but I dont think it dumps them all
I remember that i requested GPL sources from UBNT and they never provided.
I just did it again and if they dont honor it i will forward that to linux / u-boot maybe they finally take action then.
If you provide me some instructions i can try anything you want tonight.
Having the same issue with the Toughswitch.
At first they were like we will get it ASAP and then simply stopped responding.
And they are just getting worse and worse
If i should include a build feel free to post in this thread.

They redirected me to their compliance team lets see maybe we get something out of it.
@lucize i will compile this and test asap.
Weird then that they are simply ignoring my request
@lucize and @MartB Are you try to get the right values for "qca,ar8327-initvals" for Ubiquiti UniFi-AC-PRO?
I think it the mdio0 node should be the following according to the mach file:
&mdio0 {
status = "okay";
phy-mask = <0>;
phy0: ethernet-phy@0 {
reg = <0>;
phy-mode = "sgmii";
qca,ar8327-initvals = <
0x04 0x00080080 /* PORT0 PAD MODE CTRL */
0x7c 0x0000007e /* PORT0_STATUS */
>;
};
};
You clould calculate the first value for PORT0_PAD from ar8327.c#L65
And the second value for PORT0_STATUS from ar8327.c#L154

once i figure out which of the unpopulated 4 pin thingies is u-boot i will give everything a try^^
for me it was the upper ones (J1), gnd in the right
i saw that it doesnt look the same on the pro, it is j1 though!
now i only need to setup tftp properly.
I never change the uboot setings, I just try without anything, and then rename the image and add ip address to tftp server
Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0

Boots fine, no network though!

Add the qca,ar8327-initvals that i posted before...
will do as i promised.

Ping is working and eth0 shows up as up.
Seems fine to me will flash to device and see if everything else runs fine.
Hello everyone. I'm not a developer, just a user. I would like to know that if you continue to make progress, will the new kernel be included for all ar71xx devices in the OpenWRT builds? Including WR740N (4/32)?
