We chain up the Generic plugin created MMBroadbandModem objects within the
GDBusObjectManagerServer in MMManager, so that they get properly exported in
DBus.

Make port roles more flexible. We have modems that do PPP
on interfaces other than the primary interface, and that
wasn't possible with the old code. So clean up all that
logic and move the port organization code into the core
so we can reduce code in the plugins.
In the new world order, the plugins say whether the port
is a QCDM port, an AT port, or ignored. If it's an AT
port the plugins get to tag it as primary, secondary, or
PPP, or any combination of the 3. This allows for modems
where PPP should really be done on the secondary port
(Huawei E220, Sierra devices) so that the primary port
stays open for command and status.
Modem subclasses no longer get asked to handle port grabbing
themselves. Instead, that's now done by the generic classes
(MMGenericCdma and MMGenericGsm) and the plugins are notified
when a port is grabbed so they can add unsolicited response
handlers for it. After all ports are grabbed by the generic
classes, they get "organized", which assigns various ports
to the roles of PRIMARY, SECONDARY, DATA, and QCDM based
on specific rules and hints that the plugin provided (which
are expressed as MMAtPortFlags). The plugins then have
a chance to perform fixups on the primary port if they choose.
The plugin code is responsible for determining the port
hints (ie MMAtPortFlags) at probe time, instead of having
a combination of the plugin and the modem class do the
job. This simplifies things greatly for the plugins at
the expense of more complicated logic in the core.

We need to ensure that the supports task always has the results of the probing,
no matter if the probing was just launched by the plugin grabbing the port, or
by a previous plugin. We do this during supports_port(), by propagating to the
supports task any possible previously cached probing results.
|
|
Let modems we know don't suck use a zero send-delay at probe time,
which greatly reduces time required to probe AT-compatible ports.
|
|
Make it more flexible, add logging to a file, and absolute and
relative timestamps.

Pass the device's hardware IDs through modem creation and use them
when calculating the device's identifier. Add a bunch of testcases
for real hardware to ensure we don't break the device ID in the
future unless we really want to.

For devices like the UMW190 that appear to be dual-mode without needing a
firmware reload (unlike Gobis, which are dual-mode but require a reboot with
different firwmare) prefer CDMA capabilities since that's where these devices
will most likely be used more often. In the end we'll need to change MM to
advertise a "capabilities" attribute on the modem class and modify devices
such that they can implement both GSM and CDMA semantics at the same time.
|
|
It turns out that the manager needs to know about the physical
device so we can prevent multiple plugins from claiming ports on
the same modem.

Like UMTS vs. GSM, EVDO and 1x are separate networks and technologies
and have separate registration state. You can even be roaming on
EVDO while in your home 1x network. Handle that.

Two hacks here:
1) rfcomm ports don't have an easily accessible driver name, so we just
match the parent's subsystem to 'bluetooth' and use that
2) libgudev doesn't seem be be able to get the rfcomm device's device file,
which would normally be /dev/rfcommX. Oh well, we don't use the device file
yet anyway
|

ZTE modems need to use udev rules to assign port type hints,
so generalize that and port all the plugins over to suggested
port types in the MMModem interface's grab_port() function.

Allow plugins to perform asynchronous port detection, and to defer port detection
until later. This moves the prober bits into MMPluginBase so that all plugins
can take adavantage of it only when needed; the probing is not done at udev time.
Furthermore, plugins like Novatel can flip the secondary ports over the AT mode
through deferred detection, by deferring the secondary ports until the main port
has been detected and AT$NWDMAT has been sent.
This commit also finishes the port of the rest of the plugins (except mbm) over
to the new port detection methods and plugin API.

Get rid of dependency on HAL, using libgudev instead. Fix up the plugin API
to no longer use either HAL or udev defines, but let plugins use whatever
mechanism they want for getting more information out of the device given the
subsystem and device node name.
Modems are now defined as "master" devices which "own" a one or more ports.
A port could be a serial tty device or a network device or whatever. The
plugin figures out whether it supports a given port or not and then assigns
it to a new or existing modem. Modems now have a 'valid' property that
should be set to TRUE when the modem has enough ports to operate correctly.
For devices (ex. 'hso') that use a network device for data transfer, the
modem would need to grab at least one TTY and the network device associated
with that physical device to be 'valid'.
Also move the generic modem support code to a plugin like other modem plugins,
and change the I-support-this-device mechanism to return a number indicating
the level of support. For example, the generic plugin would return a quite
low number if the device indicates via probing that it can do GSM or CDMA, but
a more specific plugin can indicate better support for the device, and thus
the more specific plugin would win control.
