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.

On a ZTE MF626, sometimes the aux port will respond only with
"ERROR" to probing commands (while the SIM is starting up) and
previously we'd lose the port because we were only looking for
valid probe responses. But if the port returns ERROR or CME ERROR
etc we know it's an AT port and that we can use it once we've
gotten the type response (CDMA or GSM) from the main port.

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.
|
|
Previously plugins could only stop probing, *or* stop probing and
indicate support for a device. For the Alcatel X200/X060s debacle
we need to stop probing and indicate that the plugin does not
support the device at all.

Huawei will need this.

Instead of having two places that custom init stuff got processed
(a hook in the MMPluginBase class itself and a callback too) just
use a callback, and simplify it somewhat so that the plugin tracks
how many tries it cares about and what to do based on the response
or error.

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.

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.

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.

This implements the same fixes that NetworkManager's 0.7 branch
implemented in commits f38ad328acfdc6ce29dd1380602c546b064161ae and
1235f71b20c92cded4abd976ccc5010649aae1a0. Many ZTE devices will
spam the port with messages about waiting voicemail/SMS which buffer
up and cause the device to eventually crash if not suppressed.

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.

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.
