Add the assembled top, front and bottom of the case next to the PCB photos, and
record what the nameplate says (manufacturer, the model description translated
from the Chinese label, 12 V DC 2 A and the serial number format) so a device
can be identified by its label. The top of the case carries no model name.
Also point out where the three console through-holes sit in the top side photo
and note the PWR and SFP1/SFP2 LEDs on the front panel; the case legend for the
copper LEDs reads 1000M/2500M.
The hongyavision HYWS-SGT0204S is sold as an unmanaged 4x2.5G + 2x10G SFP+
switch and carries the 2G5F4_10G2_V1.01 marking on the PCB. It is a sibling of
the KP-9000-6XH-X2 (2M-PCB43-V1.1), so machine/2G5F4_10G2_V1_01.c is that board
definition with these changes:
- The two SFP+ cages (physical ports 5 and 6) are wired the other way round:
physical 5 is on SDS1 with GPIO30/GPIO37, physical 6 on SDS0 with
GPIO50/GPIO10. Copper ports 1-4 match the KP-9000 layout.
- No reset button is fitted and the case has no opening for one, so reset_pin
is GPIO_NA. GPIO54, the reset pin on the KP-9000 layout, reads as permanently
pressed here.
- The board definition sets flash_sio, so the flash is read with single-IO: the
fitted 512 KB Bright Moon T25S40 cannot be read in DIO mode on this board, an
image that leaves DIO enabled does not come up at all, while the same image
with single-IO boots and runs normally (two units).
- The board is added to the machine_custom_init() group that sets
LED_GLB_IO_EN bit 6, otherwise the RTL837x "solid" conditions (LINK/speed)
never drive the LEDs and the 2.5G LED glows faintly at 100M/1000M.
flash_sio is a new field of struct machine that rtlplayground.c hands to
flash_init(); only this board sets it, every other machine keeps DIO. It costs
management-plane speed only, the ASIC keeps forwarding in hardware.
The stock firmware runs a factory test console on the serial header at 9600
baud, whose silkscreen labels are shifted by one pin.
Verified: warning-free build, `make machine_check` passes for every target, the
host tests pass, and a control build of this target without the LED hook differs
from the KP-9000-6XH_X2_V1_1 image in 44 bytes: all inside the machine
description (including flash_sio) and the image CRC16, nothing else in the
firmware moved. On the board the single-IO image boots and runs on two units;
port order, SFP cages and LED behaviour come from the machine definition
verified on this board earlier.
UART is broken out to the unpopulated switch header at the front of the
board.
This isn't quite the same as the V2.0 definition as the system led is
always on, not routed through the CPU.
Additionally, document that the newer revision of the same "YS25-0402"
is supported via the existing PCB-K0402WS-V3.0 target.
The trap is described with STP, so the LACP page only says that it is
used. The LACP sections leave link_aggregation.md, which now points to
lacp.md, and the timing section gives the values in seconds and the
802.3ad requirements without the test history.
The comments repeated the documentation, described tests or explained
the code to its author. What stays describes the LACPDU structures. The
timer constants are decimal, in units of the LACP timer.
lacp_in() always leaves uip_len at 0, so the tcpip_output() after it
never ran. The LAG page names the active members by front-panel port
instead of a logical mask. The partner key is not part of selection;
say so under Known limits.
Dynamic link aggregation on top of the static LAGG, for RTL8372/8373:
receive, selection and mux state machines (coupled mux, one aggregator
per group), with "lacp show" to look inside. Each of the four trunk
groups runs its own aggregator on the candidate ports assigned with
"lag <n> lacp <ports>"; the engine starts with the first such group and
stops with the last.
LACPDUs reach the CPU through the reserved-multicast trap, so delivery
needs no L2 entry and nothing written per VLAN or per PVID. The trap
acts on the address before the VLAN lookup and before the ingress
filters, so a LACPDU also arrives on a port that admits tagged frames
only and on a port STP holds in blocking, neither of which a forwarded
one reaches. A trapped frame carries no VLAN tag,
so lacp_in() takes the offset of the PDU body from TRAP_RX_BODY(). The
action is set with trap_rma_set(), which leaves the flags sharing that
register alone, and "lacp off" puts the slow-protocols drop default
back. doc/lacp.md and doc/link_aggregation.md record what was measured,
including why the trap looked like a dead end at first.
The web UI gets a Static/LACP mode per group on the LAG page with live
status, and the startup-config validator knows the per-group syntax. A
host-side sandbox for the state machines runs in the test harness
together with the LAG hash check. It drives both forms of an incoming
LACPDU, so the body offset of a trapped one is covered as well.
The L2 table page iterated with the "next unicast" read method, so
static multicast entries such as an IGMP group were invisible. It now
iterates with "next address", skips L3 entries (their layout carries IP
addresses where a MAC is expected), and reports the lowest member of a
multicast entry's port mask, so such an entry shows up as a static
entry on that port.
A port taken out of LACP forgets its partner, so "lacp show" after
"lacp off" no longer reports one. Applying the same candidate set to a
group again, as the LAG page does on every Apply, leaves the trunk
alone instead of tearing it down for a second or two. lacp_in() checks
the frame length and ethertype before reading a LACPDU, so a runt or a
foreign frame on the slow-protocols address cannot leave stale buffer
bytes as a partner. The sandbox covers these three in T20-T22. On the
LAG page, LACP mode with no ports checked sends "lag N lacp off", and
the startup-config validator wants at least one port after "lacp".
A reserved-multicast trap goes to the port named in EXT_CPU_CTRL, which
names no port out of reset, so trapped frames were dropped at ingress.
trap_init() points it at the CPU port once at startup, and
trap_rma_set() changes only the action field of an RMA register.
A trapped frame arrives without the VLAN tag a forwarded one gets, so
TRAP_RX_BODY() gives the offset of the payload for both forms.
STP now traps its address while it runs instead of steering it with a
static L2 entry per VLAN, so turning it on no longer walks the VLAN
table and a pvid change no longer needs stp off and on. With STP off
the flooding entries are restored as before.
A trapped BPDU passes the tagged-only ingress filter that drops a
forwarded one, so the stp_setup() warning about such ports goes.
The answer to a lookup arrives after the command has returned, so the
console of the web interface never shows it. Plain "dns" now prints the
name and the address, or whether it is still pending or failed.
igmp_setup(), which `igmp off` also calls, enabled the lookup of IPv4
multicast in the L2 table. Groups learned while IGMP was on therefore
kept going only to the ports that had reported them, and with reports
no longer trapped nothing updated those entries until a reboot.
The lookup is now enabled in igmp_enable() and disabled in igmp_setup(),
so with IGMP off all IP multicast is flooded again.
The switch keeps flooding 224.0.0.0/24 with IGMP on, but a report for a
group in that block still made an entry for it, and the entry limited
the group to the ports that reported it. A host announcing mDNS on
224.0.0.251 thereby cut mDNS off from every other port. Such reports
are now ignored, as RFC 4541 asks.
The V3.2 board has the same component placement as V3.1 and works with
its machine definition: RJ45 links at 2.5G, LEDs, SFP detection with DOM
readings at 10G, factory MAC at 0x1FC000 and the reset button. The new
target only reports "V3.2" as the machine name.
Installed from the original firmware V100.9.25 through its web
interface with the OEM installer image. Reading the flash in-circuit with
a SOIC-8 clip gave the chip ID EF FF FF, as on a V3.1 board.

Only frames to 01:00:5e:00:00:16 reached the IGMP handler, so v1/v2
reports, which go to the group address, were never seen. The handler
also took the group from the first v3 group record for every type.
Pass all IPv4 multicast to the handler, which takes the IGMP header
from the IP header length, the group from the IGMP header for v1/v2
reports and v2 leaves and from the first group record for v3, and
returns 0 for anything that is not IGMP so it goes on to the IP stack.
The message and record types have names now.
Storm control used meters 0 to 39, the same meters the ACL hands out,
so a storm limit and an acl meter could overwrite each other. It now
uses 24 + port * 4 + type, meters 24 to 63.
parse_storm() is no longer reentrant and uses plain locals, looks the
type up in a while loop and returns straight from the one-line cases.
storm_show() uses plain locals too.
The documentation says how IGMP decides between mcast and umcast, how
to get from a meter index to its limit, where the IFG bit of a meter
is, and what an ingress bandwidth limit on the same port does to the
storm limit.
The switch has no battery backed clock, only a seconds counter that starts
at zero on every boot. An SNTP client keeps UTC as the time of the last
answer plus the seconds counted since: "ntp server <name|ip>", "ntp interval
<minutes>", "ntp timezone <+hh:mm>", "ntp dst off|eu|us", "ntp on|off",
"ntp" and "time". A server given by name goes through the DNS resolver, an
answer from an unsynchronised server is ignored, and a failed attempt is
repeated after 30 seconds.
The local time adds the time zone offset and, while the European or United
States rule says so, one hour. The date is split with a shift and subtract
division and a walk over the years, so no 32-bit division from the library
ends up in the common area.
The System page gets the NTP settings and shows the local time.
