The u-blox plugin was originally written to support the TOBY-L4 only.
This caused issues with mmcli reporting the correct supported and
current bands because the logic was based only for the TOBY-L4 and
the AT commands used in the implementaion are only supported by
a couple of modems.
There is now a hard-coded modem list that contains the supported bands
and the supported modes. A hard-coded list was chosen over a logic
based list because ublox modems only report the frequency of the bands
they support in the current mode they are in. For further justification,
the reported frequency could relate to multiple bands that are not all
supported by the modem, and not all the supported bands are always caught
depending on the mode the modem is in (e.g. 2G, 3G, 4G). The only
realiable way to retrieve the correct supported bands is to have the list
hard-coded. Based off of the modem, the code chooses whether it is
appropriate to issue +UACT or +UBANDSEL to retrieve the current bands list.
Additionally, the appropriate AT command of +CFUN=4 or +COPS=2 is chosen
to detach from the network when the mmcli --set-current-bands command is
issued. The new setup also adds a header file that contains the modem list.
This should make adding support for future additional modems easier as long
as future modems stick to the same AT command interface that is currently
supported by the plugin.
g_type_init() has been deprecated (and also marked with the attribute
'deprecated') since glib 2.36 as the type system is automatically
initialized. Since the minimum version of glib required by ModemManager
is 2.36, calling g_type_init() isn't necessarily in the ModemManager
code.
The parser returns only the results for the CID being specified as input. This
is so that we can just query the statistics of the CID currently in use by the
bearer.
AT+URAT=? provides the format expected, but looks like it isn't implemented
differently for the different u-blox devices seen, so we need an additional
level of filtering which currently is applied per device model string.
