The 'allow-roaming' setting should be considered deprecated for 3GPP
devices that support the new 'roaming-allowance' setting, which is
much more detailed (as it allows to differentiate between partner and
non-partner networks) and may also be stored as part of a profile.
In 5G capable devices, which can support multiple types of access
types (either 3GPP or non-3GPP), the UE may request to use a 3GPP
access type exclusively, prefer a 3GPP access type, or just report no
preference.
When supported, this field may also be part of the settings that can
be stored as part of a profile.
A new set of property+method is added to be able to configure the 5G
specific registration settings, initially defining the support for the
MICO mode.
The property name starts with "Nr5g" instead of "5gNr" because of the
limitations imposed by the GObject type system on how properties with
numbers can be named.
These values show the rates that have been negotiated with the network
during the PS domain attach.
These are not the current ongoing data rates associated to the network
usage at some given moment.
Includes updates by Aleksander Morgado to fix coding style issues and
add missing documentation items.
We allow clients to receive asynchronous updates of location
information, e.g. if "location signaling" is explicitly enabled (with
the setup() method).
But if so, we should also allow clients to easily process those
asynchronous updates in the libmm-glib library, instead of requiring
them to run explicit DBus queries to refresh the location information.
These new signaled location APIs allow clients to do so; they can
enable location signaling, and then just wait for the updates to
arrive.
This new property will provide detailed information about the failed
connection attempt, or about the network initiated disconnection. The
property will be cleared only if a new connection attempt is
triggered, and so it can be used to investigate why a given attempt
failed without needing to be the one who triggered the attempt (e.g.
so that failures in NetworkManager-triggered connection attempts can
be investigated looking at the DBus API).
The property is built as a (ss) tuple, but the libmm-glib interface
provides methods to read this property as a GError.
MMLocation3gpp provides MCC/MNC information as integers, so it can not
make distinction between operator codes such as XXX01 and XXX001.
This commit deprecates mm_location_3gpp_get_mobile_network_code() and
implements a new function mm_location_3gpp_get_operator_code() which
provides the MCC+MNC in string format.
The mm_location_3gpp_get_mobile_country_code() is still available as
returning the MCC as an integer does not have ambiguity issues.
To report which is the currently active profile with this bearer, if
known. If the modem doesn't support profiles, or if the bearer is
disconnected, -1 (MM_3GPP_PROFILE_ID_UNKNOWN) will be reported.
It is guaranteed that no two connected bearers will have the same
ProfileId property value.
This new interface allows modems to expose the list of available
connection profiles stored in the device and edit or delete them; as
long as the underlying device/protocol allows it.
We define a new 'profile-id' setting in the bearer properties that
users will use to specify which connection profile of the ones
available in the device should be connected.
When the 'profile-id' is given, the associated bearer object will be
bound to the 'profile-id', and the user is able to provide additional
settings to apply on top (e.g. if the profile storage doesn't allow
some of the settings we support, like 'apn-type', or if the setting is
completely unrelated to profiles, like 'multiplex').
After introducing the 'profile-id' as a valid setting in the bearer
properties, we also reimplement the properties object internals to
make use a 3GPP profile for the subset of common settings between both
objects.
Define a new helper object which we're going to use to implement the
new profile management interface.
The 3GPP profile object provides the list of settings that modems may
be able to store in their profile list, e.g. "apn", "ip-type" and so
on. Not all modems will be able to support all the settings defined in
the profile object, and therefore, when looking for a specific 3GPP
profile object with a given set of settings, we must make sure we only
compare those settings that are supported by the modem.
The profile management implementation will be able to load during
runtime a set of "compare flags", specifying which settings should not
be checked during the comparison. E.g. a generic AT-based modem that
supports only "apn" and "ip-type" will be compared with the
NO_APN_TYPE and NO_AUTH flags; and an AT/Icera-based modem (which
supports auth settings) will use only NO_APN_TYPE.
The settings in the 3GPP profile should be considered a subset of the
bearer properties.
This new setting allows the user setting up the connection to specify
the purpose of the connection being brought up.
Until now, we would always assume that connections are exclusively
brought up for connecting to the Internet, also limited by the
inability to connect to multiple different APNs at the same time.
But that may really not be true as there may be additional services
that may be accessed through other APNs, like MMS services or even
private networks for companies that have their own APNs on a given
operator (e.g. not that uncommon with banks and connected cars).
The new APN type setting will not change the way the bearer is
connected, but will allow the connection manager to decide what kind
of networking setup the specific connection needs.
This new setting can be provided by the user itself, or implicitly
read from the device if the device stores this information.
This property will be TRUE if the bearer has the data session
connected through a multiplexed interface.
If the bearer is disconnected, or connected without multiplexing, the
property will report FALSE.
In addition to the amount of bearers a user may connect without
multiplexing enabled (the default until now), we now also expose the
maximum number of bearers a user may connect after enabling
multiplexing over one single network interface (if supported).
The method responsible for creating the MMBearerList is now also
subclassable, so that implementations supporting multiplexing can
provide their own version with their own thresholds.
Both the Simple.Connect() and Modem.CreateBearer() are updated to
allow a new 'multiplex' setting in the properties provided by the user
in both of these methods.
The new setting expects a MMBearerMultiplexSupport enum indicating
what kind of multiplex needs the user has:
* none: if multiplex must not be used.
* requested: if multiplex should be used if available.
* required: if multiplex must be used.
The underlying implementations will take care of accepting or
rejecting the setting depending on the system and modem capabilities.
The ModemManager1.Sim.PreferredNetworks property contains the preferred
networks (and access technologies, if available) configured to the
SIM card.
This commit implements preferred networks reading with AT+CPOL.
