Add board support for the BananaPi BPI-R4 router board, based on the
MediaTek MT7988A (Filogic 880) SoC with quad-core Cortex-A73 CPU.
The BPI-R4 is the successor to the BPI-R3 but uses entirely different
silicon: the internal switch runs at 2.5 GbE per port, the two SFP+
uplinks use native USXGMII at up to 10 Gbps, and WiFi is provided by
a MediaTek MT7996E PCIe module supporting tri-band WiFi 7 (2.4/5/6 GHz).
Two board variants, BPI-R4-2g5 and BPI-R4P, replace one SFP+ cage with
a 2.5 GbE RJ45 port (using the MT7988A internal 2.5G PHY); the R4P adds
an optional PoE daughterboard on that port. Both use the upstream
mt7988a-bananapi-bpi-r4-2g5 device tree.
Interfaces:
- Standard R4: eth1 (gmac1/sfp2 LAN cage) → sfp2, eth2 (gmac2/sfp1 WAN cage) → sfp1
- R4-2g5/R4P: eth1 (2.5G PHY) → wan, eth2 (gmac2/sfp1 WAN cage) → sfp1
Factory reset / WPS button (GPIO14, active-low): detected by U-Boot at
boot for factory reset; reused by Linux as KEY_WPS_BUTTON at runtime.
eMMC install note: the MT7988A eMMC (pins 38-49) and SD card (pins 32-37)
use separate physical pads so there is no electrical bus sharing, unlike
some BPi-R3 configurations. However, a single MMC controller
(mmc@11230000) handles both, so only one is active per boot session.
The eMMC install procedure therefore still requires an intermediate SPI
NAND bootloader step until a Linux-side install path is tested.
SD card build (bpi_r4_sd_boot_defconfig) now uses the new
mt7988a_bpir4_sd U-Boot defconfig with cap-sd-highspeed enabled,
giving 50 MHz SD transfers instead of the previous 25 MHz legacy mode.
Also adds MT7988/MT7996 firmware support to the buildroot linux-firmware
package, for 2.5 GbE port PHY and WiFi7 extension board, and updates the
aarch64_defconfig, aarch64_minimal_defconfig, the arch README, CI
boot/image workflows, mkimage.sh, and the ChangeLog.

The awk insertion path used getline to peek at the line right after the
"### Changes", but only printed it when NF == 0 (blank line). If the
section already had a non-blank entry (e.g. a Buildroot upgrade line),
getline consumed it silently and the kernel line was written in its
place.
Fix by adding the missing else branch so the consumed line is always
re-emitted — blank lines before the new entry, non-blank lines after it.
Also demote the missing-UNRELEASED guard from exit 1 to a warning with
return 0, so the workflow doesn't abort when a new release cycle hasn't
had its ChangeLog section opened yet.

Apple devices (e.g. Apple TV) publish vv=1 in their AirPlay/RAOP TXT
records, causing a false positive with our Infix platform marker.
Tighten the filter to require vv=1 together with at least one management
service type (ssh, https, http, netconf, restconf), which Apple devices
never advertise. Keep on=Infix as a fallback for older firmware that
predates vv=1.

Introduce libfleet.sh and a new 'fleet' subcommand to ixll for managing
and operating enrolled Infix devices via RESTCONF.
Device configuration is stored in ~/.config/infix/config.json
(chmod 600): and organised by profile, allowing bulk operations across
groups of devices (e.g. all aarch64 targets).
New commands:
ixll fleet enroll [-d] [-p profile] [-u user] [-w password] <name> <address>
ixll fleet list
ixll fleet upgrade <name|profile> <url>
ixll fleet backup [-o dir] <name|profile>
ixll fleet reboot <name|profile>
Upgrade runs in parallel across a fleet and shows a live per-device
progress bar by polling the infix-system:install-bundle RPC and the
installer state from the YANG operational data store.
The global -A flag (admin/admin) is honoured as a credential fallback
for devices enrolled without an explicit password.
Also fix a pre-existing typo: ">2" → ">&2" in the error path.

This is a simple two port router board, with the same
WiFi chips as BPI-r3.
The bootloader shall be the same as the BPI-r3, the bootloader
now probes which of the two is booting by checking for the PHYS
that only exist on BPI-r3-mini.
All build scripts use $BR2_ARCH to determine location of critical board files
and configuration. As per previous decisions, the BR2_ARCH variable controls
all naming in Infix and for consistency the defconfig files are also renamed.
This fixes the issue with missing DTB file(s) for the Raspberry Pi 2B.

Release tarballs waste ~131MB per architecture by including both
rootfs.itb and rootfs.squashfs, even though rootfs.itb already
contains the squashfs (itb = 4096-byte header + squashfs).
This change removes rootfs.squashfs from releases and provides two
solutions for users who need it:
1. utils/extract-squashfs.sh - Full-featured utility for extracting
squashfs from release tarballs or .itb files. Includes validation
and helpful error messages.
2. board/common/qemu/qemu.sh - Auto-extraction support. When running
in initrd mode, automatically extracts rootfs.squashfs from
rootfs.itb if missing. Zero user impact - ./qemu.sh just works!
Space savings: ~262MB per release (2 architectures × 131MB)
Fixes#858

This commit adds support to simplify sdcard.img generation by downloading the
latest bootloader build for a board from the 'latest-boot' release tag. The
tarball is saved in dl/bootloader/ and is extracted to a temporary directory
in output/build/boot-$board-xxxx on every invocation of mkimage.sh. This is
used for invoking genimage and bmaptool before copying the resulting images
to output/images/. (If $O is set, it is used instead of output/, above).
New options:
-d Download latest bootloader build for the given board
-f Force re-download even if bootlaoder tarball existgs

This commit consolidates mkimage.sh scripts into a unified SD card image
creation tool that works for all boards. It needs a bootloader an $ARCH
rootfs.squashfs image and a genimage.cfg.in template.
- Detects build directories from `O=` environment variable or `output/`
- Sources `.config` to discover Buildroot paths
- Uses Buildroot's `support/scripts/genimage.sh` when available
- Automatically generates `.bmap` files if `bmaptool` is available
- Fallback to direct `genimage` invocation if wrapper not found
See the online instructions for usage.

This will fix#1106, in time, but only allows manual trigger for now,
needs more test and verification
utils/kernel-upgrade.sh at least automate all the manual manual processes
for upgrading the kernel.
The curl.sh wrapper script had several issues:
- Used 'shift 2' incorrectly without proper argument validation
- Required hostname as enviroment variable instead of option
- Lacked proper option parsing, should behave like a cross between
curl and sysrepocfg
All examples have been updated to match the refactored script, and
a local copy in utils/curl.sh has been added.

You need first to clone gns3-registry from https://github.com/GNS3/gns3-registry
Follow this steps:
1. ./utils/bump-gns3.py 25.08.0 ../../gns3/gns3-registry/appliances/infix.gns3a
2. TEST in gns3, just add the new version, start it.
3. run python3 check.py inside gns3-registry, verify infix is ok.
4. Create a pull request to gns3-registry
This fix#1107
If a extra infix feature require features to be added to an already
loaded module. Instead of have the exact module definition in multiple
places (with date), this will allow a much more flexible sytax:
MODULES=(
"infix-interfaces -e containers"
)
This require that the infix-interfaces is loaded *before* this file
is run.
- Update usage text for readability, add example
- Reindent getopts case and add -h
- Allow 'git rm -f' to remove already staged patches
