This WiFi AP is based on a MT7621 SoC with 128MiB RAM, 128MiB NAND,
a MT7603 2.4GHz WiFi and a MT7663 5GHz WiFi chips integrated on the board,
connected to the main SoC over PCIe.

The GMAC1 on the SoC is connected to PHY0 on the GSW and can be used to
improve routing bandwidth.

The device uses NMBM over NAND, which is not currently supported in the
mainline, so NAND node is skipped in this revision.

This is great to see. I'm going to mainline all the MT7621 devicetrees on
OpenWrt at some point, this is a good step for this.

AFAIK this board is not supported by OpenWrt at all. So the flow will be
the other way this time :)

tplink,hc220-g5-v1 should fit better. Also please make another patch to add
the compatible string under Boards with Mediatek/Ralink MT7621 SoC on
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mips/ralink.yaml.

Will do another patch with the documentation update. I will also send a v2
incorporating all your review comments, thanks for taking the time!

Regarding the full name: I'm quite tempted to drop the v1(.0) entirely as I'm
not really sure that TP-Link will release another board. Doing a search now
I fail to find on any TP-Link results the mention of the version.

What I understand is TP-Link always call their first hardware release v1 as they are notorious for introducing new versions to cut costs as much as possible. On the downloads website for the product, "v1" is there on the product name.

These are partially wrong, check the mt7621.dtsi on mainline. Or better,
don't do it. I'm very close to adding support for changing the DSA conduit
for user ports. I suggest you just add port@0 to the DSA switch node below.


I don't claim to be an expert on DSA or how MT7530 connects to MT7621, however
I do remember trying various combinations and failing to make all the ports
work. I blame TP-Link on having a weird setup, but to be sure I will try your
suggestion if I manage to understand exactly where I'm "partially wrong" :)

You're not wrong, the bindings are. You must disable fixed-link. The properties status okay and phy-mode rgmii on ethphy0 is not necessary so these can be dropped. Take a look at the GB-PC2 bindings, rgmii-rxid is specific to GB-PC2 so no need to do that:

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/arch/mips/boot/dts/ralink/mt7621-gnubee-gb-pc2.dts#L114

If you define the port under the DSA switch node, it should just work.
