 Ok. If Sim not "ready" , sending a signal prematurely could stuck anyhow

 This is what i thought but I do not understand why I don't see the trace

I've managing vendor URC for sim detection right now but i have
problems.For instance if I remove it when ofonod is ready the Hilonc sends
an URC to notify sim status changed but after that it reboots itself(2 sec
later)... what i did is to notify the stack that the SIM has been removed
and modem is powered off . I thought that after calling set_powered fnc the
stack should have called my driver virtual disable function in order to
properly close the MUX .. but it's not..

right now i've been using custom URC in the first power up phase to
understand modem status. I manually set them but theoretically I should
check the values saved on the modem every power cycle. What I was thinking
was to test every time the values saved and enabling them if they were not
.After that I should call an AT+cfun=1,1 in order to reset the modem and
force it to send me again the needed URCs . What do u think ?

Thanks again

If you tell oFono core that the sim is inserted, the first thing it does 
is read some sim files that are always available.  e.g. ICCID, etc. 
Then it proceeds to check the PIN.  If the PIN query fails due to a sim 
busy condition, then yes the init process will stall.  This is 
considered a bug in the driver.

enable -> pre_sim, sim_inserted -> post_sim, set_online -> post_online. 
  Generally you do not call set_online before hitting the post_sim state.

No, if you call ofono_modem_set_powered(modem, FALSE) it assumes that 
the modem powered off due to an internally generated event (e.g. not 
oFono's doing).  The driver has to clean up properly in this case.  The 
driver disable() method is only called on oFono initiated power down 
requests.

I do not see anything wrong with that strategy.  Just keep in mind that 
querying things you will be resetting (potentially) anyway is likely a 
waste of time.  Only query things that are required for the 
initialization procedure.  For the rest, simply set the setting you want.

That would work, if the modem driver does not implement set_online, 
oFono core automatically transitions to Online after CPIN returns 'READY'.

If the modem resets, then yes you need to call ofono_modem_set_powered 
to FALSE.  Booting it back up should not be done in the driver, unless 
your modem supports so called silent resets.  This is where the modem 
stack crashes but silently resets itself back to the previous state. 
(e.g. no PIN entry is required, initialization is very fast). In that 
case use ofono_modem_reset.

Hi again Denis..
so , I have now something  that seems to work properly also when SIM is
removed/ inserted.

here a the code I've been using;

http://pastebin.com/8VgKrYur

Got as always some question :)

1) The "set_online" function I copied from other drivers but is not never
called anyway...i'll tell more..if I enable it the ofono core stucks
somewhere..:|
2) seems that if  I set the same virtual com for the service "dev_info"  &
"sim"  I got a  crash of the stack...so i put them in 2 different channel
of the Mux.
3) ppp works only if when I got DNS & ip
     ifconfig ppp0  <ip>  up
     route add -net 0.0.0.0 ppp0

about ppp , Is that normal that I have to config these parameters?

4) SMS seems to work properly.

Yes, this is normal.  oFono expects another daemon (e.g. ConnMan, 
NetworkManager) to configure the network interfaces.

Hi guys,

Sorry again! I'm a newbie in mailing list.
Thanks for ppp issue I understand. I tried my code (that worked on x86) on
the embedded ARM  board but we have problem , here the logs:

I suspect that should be a syncronization issue between the virtual

Can you compile oFono with debug information on (export CFLAGS=-O0, 
--enable-debug) and see whether you get a better backtrace.  This is 
pretty hard to debug with the information provided.

got new information. I start gdb and backtrace and i found where is the seg
fault. The function   "decode_at_error"  doesn't check if *error or *final
are NULL... and in my case they are.
if  I put a check in the function it remains stuck waiting AT cmd reply....

any help is appreciated.

The wakeup logic should only be used with the Freerunner.  Please 
disable it unless you know what you're doing.  Something else is wrong.

Denis u were right... removing wakeup cmd it seems it works again also on
the embedded board.Now i will work on ppp and connman integration.

I almost finished the driver..seems to work properly also on the embedded
device (just for SMS & PPP ). If I would like to share the code .. how
should I procede? would u like a patch posted here or a git  pull request ?
or what else ?

another issue  : anyone could explain what module should I see to properly
set the ppp0 interface once  got a valid IP from the PPP ?

Best regards.

Use git send-email and send the patches to the mailing list.  Please see 
'Submitting Patches' section in the HACKING document.

There is not, we do not want to encourage any sort of blocking behavior 
in the daemon.  Remember there are potentially multiple modems being 
operated on and we do not use threads.

oFono never polls for anything.  It is the driver's responsibility to do 
that in the best possible way for the hardware.  Also, powering on the 
modem is separate from the sim being ready.  The general flow is this:

-Enable modem
-Wait for the modem to power on and use ofono_modem_set_powered when 
that happens successfully / fails.
- Figure out if the SIM is inserted and signal using 
ofono_sim_inserted_notify.  Do this step only once the SIM is ready to 
be queried for its PIN status and perform any I/O on SIM files that are 
always accessible (e.g. ICCID)


> 3) could u explain me what should I really do in virtual fnc  set_online

oFono has 3 basic states:
- Off
- Radio Off, Sim On
- Radio On, Sim On

set_online turns radio on / off
post_online populates the atoms that are available in radio 'On' state.

I'm not following.  Care to elaborate?

That is what we do for most devices with a MUX, put it into MUX state 
right away after basic initialization.  The devices we have can be 
queried for their state in addition to URCs, so it works out very well.

SAGEM HiloNC v2 Driver

[Freedreamer]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1829 bytes --]

Hi Everybody,

I'm developing a driver for an embedded system which uses a sagem HiloNC v2
and I really should need your help. It's my will to commit everything when
shall be ready and working.
First of all I will tell you what i did..I created a plugin sagem.c ,added
a new Vendor ,  modified makefile & other stuff and seems to work properly.
I started from calypso driver 'cause the modem is based on a Uart and I
needed the MUX over that.
With a very raw/dirty code I was able to use PPP/SMS/net service over
virtual com.. Very good work dude! :)

Now I would like to clean up my code and get a better understanding of the
stack. Unfortunately I saw that functions/modules are not always commented
so I have to ask u a lot of questions (maybe also trivial):

1) AT cmds sent with "g_at_chat_send" are always async , is that right ? Is
there any chance to get them sync ?
2) in enable fnc the modem is powered but The sim is not ready so sometimes
It hangs up...Do I have to to poll the sim status until is ready  , or the
driver will do  that by itself ?
3) could u explain me what should I really do in virtual fnc  set_online /
post_online ? i tried to stub them but they have not never been called...
4) unfortunately this modem has a SIM detection URC but it reset itself
every time the status changes... so i should call the disable function and
the enable again in order to have the MUX working... how can i do that?
5) I created and started the MUX as the first thing in enable fnc but is
that right ? sometimes seems that the modem hangs up if just powered up.
Put a delay but don't like it very much as a solution...moreover when I
power up the modem all the URC have been lost 'cause the MUX has not been
created yet..

Any help will be appreciated :)

thanks in advance

Marco
