The driver vtables are read-only structures. This patch declares them as
'const' allowing the compiler to (optionally) put them in the RELRO
section. RELRO pages may be marked as read-only by the linker after
the relocations have been done ensuring that they aren't inadvertently
or maliciously altered at runtime.
When an LTE modem registers with the network, a default bearer is
automatically established. The APN used for this bearer is taken from
whatever default settings the modem has.
The LTE atom takes cares of setting up the default context/profile with
the APN to use. From there, a default bearer will be established when
the modem registers with the network. This results in a call to 'Get
LTE Attach Parameters' which tells us what APN the gateway negotiated
with us.
If we can't get the APN, we do what the AT driver does: pretend the
bearer wasn't established. This is a reasonable fallback, currently,
because connman can't handle zero-length APN's anyway; the previous
approach of setting the APN to 'automatic' breaks connman badly when it
needs to switch between LTE and non-LTE networks.
Apparently, an empty APN in an ofono context means that that the context
cannot be activated. connman definitely interprets it this way.
This patch sets a default name of "automatic" for the default bearer if
no other LTE APN is supplied (which is currently the case as the LTE
atom is not in place yet). Without this, connman happily ignores the
context, even though it has been activated by ofono.
When the modem attaches to an LTE network, a default bearer is
automatically negotiated using the "defalt profile" settings. The
QMI modem, however, does not given any explicit indication that
the bearer exists; instead, we must assume its existence based on
the network registration state.
This patch extends the GPRS atom to signal the presence of a
default bearer when it detects network connectivity on an LTE
network.
Apparently it's not legal to create a QMI service multiple times for
a device. I've been testing with a Quectel EC21 and here it works fine
to do so, but the general case would require "shared" services across
atoms.
This patch switches the users of the NAS and WDS services over to using
a "shared" service instead of each instatiating their own instance.
Calling the ps_state/cs_state alternatives *ATTACH_STATUS* was confusing
because there is also a status field in the *serving_system structure.
This patch does a minor rename and adds the appropriate definitions for
the status field.
LTE modems (observed with Telit LE910 V1) can power on
already registered to a network. In that case, the SS_INFO
change notification will never arrive, and the gprs driver
will never be marked as attached.
To avoid this situation, read SS_INFO at probe time, and if
registered, mark the gprs driver as attached.
