Add missing *.hash files for all board packages using the ix-board macro;
they declare LICENSE_FILES = LICENSE but had no hash file, producing a
warning during make legal-info.
Fix the date-cpp package where the hash file was named date.hash instead
of date-cpp.hash (package name is derived from the directory, not the mk
filename), causing Buildroot to skip the hash check entirely.
Add hash files for local-site packages confd-test-mode, netd, and
onieprom that declared LICENSE_FILES but provided no hash.
Also, rename package/date-cpp/date.mk to date-cpp.mk. Buildroot derives
the package name from the directory name, so the mk file must match. To
handle the archive name different we set DATE_CPP_SOURCE.

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.

Previously svc_enadis() would call 'initctl enable + touch' for every
config change event, even when the service's enabled state was unchanged.
This caused rousette to be unnecessarily restarted on every test_reset(),
racing with the active RESTCONF connection on slow hardware.
Replace svc_enadis() and svc_change() with svc_enable() which only
manages nginx symlinks and calls 'initctl enable/disable' -- never touch.
Each handler now checks the diff for the specific leaf that changed:
- If /enabled appears in diff: call svc_enable() to start or stop it
- If other config leaves changed with service already enabled: touch only
This ensures rousette, ttyd, netbrowse, avahi, sshd, and lldpd are only
restarted when their configuration actually requires it.

netopeer2 and rousette were starting as soon as confd had a PID, while
confd was still loading the startup config via sr_replace_config(). This
held a write lock on the running datastore. A test calling test/reset
shortly after the NETCONF port opened would have its own sr_replace_config()
block on that lock for up to 60 s, at which point sysrepo timed out the
whole RPC with "SHM event 'rpc' processing timed out".
Fix by adding the usr/bootstrap condition to both management servers so
they don't accept connections until confd signals that bootstrap is complete.

On single-core Cortex-A7, the YANG bootstrap and config loading is the
dominant boot bottleneck. The current sequence spawns three serial
phases (bootstrap, sysrepo-plugind, load), each performing independent
sr_connect()/sr_disconnect() cycles, and every sysrepoctl/sysrepocfg
invocation is a fork+exec that rebuilds SHM from scratch.
Replace all three with a single confd binary that does one sr_connect()
and performs all datastore operations in-process:
- Wipe stale /dev/shm/sr_* for a clean slate
- sr_install_factory_config() from the generated JSON
- Smart migration: compare config version via libjansson, only
fork+exec the migrate script when versions actually differ
- Load startup-config (or test-config) via lyd_parse_data() +
sr_replace_config(), mirroring what sysrepocfg -I does internally
- On failure: revert to factory-default, load failure-config, set
login banners (Fail Secure mode)
- On first boot: copy factory-default to running, export to file
- dlopen plugins and enter event loop
The bootstrap shell script is split: config generation (gen-hostname,
gen-interfaces, etc.) stays in the new gen-config script, while all
sysrepo operations move into the C daemon. The finit boot sequence
collapses from 5 stanzas to 2 (gen-config -> confd).

Set dhcp-authoritative so clients with unexpired leases are not NAKed
after a router crash or factory reset that clears the lease database.
Drop the untagged suppress directives for options 3 (router) and 6

Ensure we translate the hostname before we generate the udhcpc command
line options, otherwise we'll send '-x hostname:rpi-%m' to udhcpc.

Two races could prevent DHCP-learned default routes from being installed
at boot:
1. The signal from the DHCP client script could be lost leaving conf.d
updated but frr.conf stale.
2. Even when the signal was received, 'vtysh -b' could fail because the
FRR daemon chain (mgmtd→zebra→staticd) writes PID files before being
fully operational, causing netd to give up with no retry.
Fix both by refactoring netd to use libev:
- Use an inotify watch of CONF_DIR, so netd reacts directly to file
changes without depending on signal delivery.
- On backend_apply() failure, schedule a retry in 5s and call pidfile()
unconditionally so dependent services are not blocked waiting for the
Finit condition 'pid/netd' to be satisfied.
We also take this opportunity to rename /etc/netd/conf.d/ to /etc/net.d/
The extra /etc/netd/ directory level served no purpose — nothing else
lives there. Flatten to /etc/net.d/ which reads more naturally as the
drop-in directory for network configuration snippets.
Also, reduce logging a bit since each netd backend already logs success
or fail which is sufficient to know that a configuration change has been
applied or not.
Finally, with the new inotify processing in netd it's redundant to call
'initctl reload netd' from the udhcpc script, in fact it will only cause
unnecessary overhead, so we drop it.

The Raspberry Pi 400 shares hardware with the RPi 4B but differs in one
important way: it has an internal keyboard and mouse connected through a

raspberrypi,4-model-b and maintain a dedicated product directory.

and USB3 the superspeed companion; all are unlocked as this is a
desktop device
- DHCP vendor-class corrected to "Raspberry Pi 400"
Also add interface-quirks.json for the eth0 PHY detach behaviour and

Two related problems prevented devices behind an intermediate hub (e.g.
the VIA Labs hub on the RPi 400's VL805 xHCI) from being authorized
when confd unlocks a USB bus:
1. Cascade ordering: usb_authorize() ran nftw() with FTW_DEPTH, which
visits children before the root-hub entry. The hub was authorized
while authorized_default was still 2, so when the kernel probed the
hub's children it immediately denied them. Fix: write
authorized_default=1 on the bus before entering nftw.
2. Slow/async probe: hub port enumeration is asynchronous — devices
behind a hub may appear in sysfs after nftw has already finished.
Fix: add a udev rule that catches usb_device add events on buses
where authorized_default=1 is already set on any ancestor root hub
and authorizes them immediately.
The ATTRS{} matcher in udev walks the full sysfs parent chain, so
authorized_default=1 on the root hub is visible even for devices several
hubs deep. Buses still locked at authorized_default=0 are left alone.
Also expand the docstring in generic_usb_ports() to document the
design: each root hub gets its own uniquely-named entry (USB, or USB1/
USB2/... when multiple) so buses can be individually controlled, and
boards needing finer control should use DT usb-ports annotations.

The MVEBU SafeXcel Crypto Engine firmware (linux-firmware minifw) was
originally added in 70c12c3 to the generic aarch64 defconfigs to silence
kernel probe failures on Marvell Armada SoCs (37xx, 7k, 8k, CN913x):
crypto-safexcel f2800000.crypto: Firmware load failed.
crypto-safexcel f2800000.crypto: HW init failed (-2)
It was then accidentally dropped in 0e2d12e (kernel upgrade to 6.18),
which rebased on a tree that predated the firmware addition.
Rather than restoring it to the generic defconfigs, move it to the two
Marvell board Config.in files where it actually belongs — consistent
