Overview of changes in libqmi 1.30.8 ---------------------------------------- * New request/response/indications: ** dms: new 'Foxconn FCC authentication v2' request/response. Overview of changes in libqmi 1.30.6 ---------------------------------------- * build: ** meson: fix 'export_packages' in GIR setup. * libqmi-glib: ** net-port-manager: use unaligned netlink attribute length. Overview of changes in libqmi 1.30.4 ---------------------------------------- * Build: ** meson: switch to use the new python module in meson. ** meson: added a new boolean 'man' option in the meson setup to explicitly enable or disable building the man pages. ** meson: removed the option to detect if rmnet is supported. ** meson: multiple updates to use newer meson features like install_dir(), install_mode() or summary(). ** meson: options 'mbim_qmux' and 'qrtr' are enabled by default and must be explicitly disabled if they're not needed, there is no attempt to autodetect whether they can be enabled or not. * qmi-proxy: ** Remove assert when attempting to close ghost device. * qmi-firmware-update: ** Use defaults if FLASH variables not reported, enabling support to flash the new Sierra Wireless EM9190 and EM9191 modules. * Several other minor improvements and fixes. Overview of changes in libqmi 1.30.2 ---------------------------------------- * Build: ** meson: fix disabling introspection support. * New request/response/indications: ** voice: implement "Get All Call Status" request/response. Overview of changes in libqmi 1.30.0 ---------------------------------------- * Build now requires GLib/GObject/GIO 2.56 and libgudev 232. * Building from git no longer requires autoconf-archive, the needed AX_ macros are now shipped inside m4/. * In addition to building from a source release tarball, or building from git checkouts using the GNU autotools suite (autoconf/automake/libtool), this release includes the initial support for the meson build system. The meson port is not fully complete yet, as there are some missing things in the doc generation steps, but for system integration or development purposes, the port should be fully operational. This major release, including all its stable updates in the 1.30.x series, will be the last ones providing support for GNU autotools. The next major release will likely be a meson-only one, and will therefore not be based on a source release tarball any more, but on specific git tags instead. * Updated the build to allow better control of the built-in RMNET support: ** A new '--disable-rmnet' configure flag is available to request fully disabling the RMNET support. When RMNET support is disabled, the link management operations are done with the add_mux/del_mux qmi_wwan API exclusively. ** The library sources now ship the RMNET specific types from the kernel API in a custom internal header, so that we don't require the latest kernel headers during configure time and build time. ** A new 'QMI_RMNET_SUPPORTED' symbol is given to flag the existence of the RMNET support in the libqmi-glib headers. * New services: ** New 'DPM' (Data Port Mapper) service, which allows setting up the binding between TX/RX endpoint ids in the hardware and the control port interface, required for IPA based Qualcomm SoCs. * New request/response/indications: ** nas: implement "Get Preferred Networks" request/response. ** nas: implement "Set Preferred Networks" request/response. ** nas: implement "Network Reject" indications ** uim: implement "Get Configuration" request/response. ** uim: implement "Depersonalization" request/response. ** voice: implement "Manage Calls" request/response. ** voice: implement "Supplementary Service" indication. ** voice: implement "Set Supplementary Service" request/response. ** voice: implement "Get Call Waiting" request/response. * New TLVs supported in existing messages: ** nas: added the "Network Reject Information" TLV in "Register Indications". ** nas: renamed several TLVs in the "System Info" response and indication messages, in order to provide a QmiNasRejectCause value instead of a plain guint8. The old names were flagged as deprecated and added to the compat layer in order to avoid breaking API. *** Renamed the "GSM System Info" TLV to "GSM System Info v2". *** Renamed the "WCDMA System Info" TLV to "WCDMA System Info v2". *** Renamed the "LTE System Info" TLV to "LTE System Info v2". *** Renamed the "TD SCMA System Info" TLV to "TD SCMA System Info v2". ** nas: added the "NR5G ARFCN" and "NR5G Cell Information" TLVs in "Get Cell Location Info". ** wds: added the "APN Type" TLV in "Get Profile Settings". ** wds: added the "APN Type" TLV in "Create Profile". ** wds: added the "APN Type" TLV in "Modify Profile". ** nas: renamed the "Common Info" TLV in "Swi Get Status" to "Common Info v2" in order to read the temperature field as a signed integer. The old name was flagged as deprecated and added to the compat layer in order to avoid breaking API. ** nas: renamed the "MNC PDS Digit Include Status" TLV in "Get System Selection Preference" to "MNC PCS Digit Include Status". The old name was flagged as deprecated and added to the compat layer in order to avoid breaking API. ** wda: added the "Uplink Data Aggregation Max Datagrams", "Uplink Data Aggregation Max Size", "Download Minimum Padding" and "Flow Control" TLVs in "Get Data Format" and "Set Data Format" responses. ** nas: added the "NR5G Service Status Info", "NR5G System Info", "EUTRA with NR5G availability", DCNR restriction Info" and "NR5G Tracking Area Code" TLVs in "Get System Info". * libqmi-glib: ** Added support for 'hsic', 'bam-dmux' and 'unknown' endpoint types. ** Added support for QMAPv2, QMAPv3 and QMAPv4 data aggregation types. ** Added support for 'NGRAN' access technology identifier. ** New 'qmi_device_add_link_with_flags()' method, in order to give e.g. rmnet specific checksum offload related flags when creating a new link. * qmicli: ** New '--nas-get-preferred-networks' command. ** New '--nas-set-preferred-networks' command. ** New '--uim-get-configuration' command. ** New '--uim-depersonalization' command. ** New '--wms-get-routes' command. ** New '--dpm-open-port' command. ** New '--dpm-close-port' command. ** Updated '--wds-create-profile' with an additional 'apn-type-mask' setting. ** Updated '--wds-modify-profile' with an additional 'apn-type-mask' setting. ** Updated '--link-add' with an additional optional 'flags' setting. * qmi-network: ** New PROFILE configuration setting to allow specifying which WDS profile to use when connecting. ** New IP-TYPE configuration setting to allow selecting the IP type requested (e.g. IPv4 or IPv6). * collections: ** basic: added voice call management operations. ** basic: added voice supplementary service related operations. ** basic: added NAS preferred networks related operations. ** basic: added NAS network reject indications. ** basic: added UIM depersonalization related operations. * Several other minor improvements and fixes. The following features which were backported to 1.28.x releases are also present in libqmi 1.30.0: ** gir: bindings updated to make all output TLV fields optional. ** gir: bindings fixed with correct string/struct return annotations. ** build: updated to disable gtkdocize during autoreconf. ** build: updated to avoid gtkdoc-rebase on local install step. ** libqmi-glib: added initial "wwan" subsystem support. ** dms: implement "Foxconn Set FCC Authentication" command. Overview of changes in libqmi 1.28.0 ---------------------------------------- * Build now optionally depends on the libqrtr-glib v1.0.0 library, which is no longer maintained inside the libqmi sources. All the QRTR related methods implemented in the QmiDevice object in the libqmi-glib library are considered API/ABI stable. * The pkg-config file now exposes build features as variables, which allows other projects to detect them at configure time. E.g. to check whether the libqmi-glib library was built with QRTR support: qmi_qrtr_supported=$($PKG_CONFIG --variable=qmi_qrtr_supported qmi-glib) if test "x$qmi_qrtr_supported" = "x1"; then .... fi * The QmiDevice interfaces to work with the expected data format and the wwan interface name should now be considered to be specific to QMI devices exposed by the upstream 'qmi_wwan' kernel driver. If the device is exposed with a different driver (e.g. PCIe or QRTR) these methods will always fail. * The QmiDevice now supports configuring the 'pass_through' sysfs setting in the network interfaces exposed by the 'qmi_wwan' kernel driver, with a new 'qmap-pass-through' expected data format type. In this mode, the network device will be managed by the rmnet kernel driver. A new method is also provided to check in runtime whether a given expected data format value is supported by the kernel or not. * The QmiDevice now includes methods to list, create and delete links on the network interface, that can be used to setup QMAP based multiplexing of different data streams, e.g. connected to different APNs. When using the 'qmi_wwan' kernel driver, the link management logic depends on the configured expected data format: ** rmnet netlink operations will be used if 'qmap-pass-through' expected data format is configured. ** add_mux/del_mux operations will be used if 'raw-ip' expected data format is configured. When not using 'qmi_wwan', rmnet netlink operations are assumed. * New services: ** New 'SAR' (Specific Absorption Rate) service, with support for the "Set RF State" and "Get RF State" request/responses. * New request/response/indications: ** uim: implement "Refresh Register" request/response. ** uim: implement "Refresh Register All" request/response. ** uim: implement "Refresh Complete" request/response. ** uim: implement "Refresh" indication. ** loc: implement "Get Engine Lock" request/response. ** loc: implement "Set Engine Lock" request/response. ** nas: implement "Get DRX" request/response. ** nas: implement "Get PLMN Name" request/response. ** wms: implement "Send Ack" request/response. ** wds: implement "Bind Data Port" request/response. ** wds: implement "Get Max LTE Attach PDN Number" request/response. ** wds: implement "Get LTE Attach PDN List" request/response. ** wds: implement "Set LTE Attach PDN List" request/response. ** wds: implement "Set LTE Attach PDN List" indication. ** wds: implement "Get LTE Attach Parameters" request/response. ** wds: renamed "Get Default Profile Num" to "Get Default Profile Number", and provided compat symbols to avoid breaking API. ** wds: renamed "Set Default Profile Num" to "Set Default Profile Number", and provided compat symbols to avoid breaking API. * New TLVs supported in existing messages: ** nas: added the "Rx Chain 2/3 Info" TLVs in "Get Tx Rx Info". ** nas: added the "LTE Info Timing Advance" TLV in "Get Cell Location Info". ** nas: added the "LTE Voice Domain", "CDMA Registration Zone ID", "GSM Routing Area Code", "WCDMA Routing Area Code" and "CDMA Resolved MCC" TLVs in "Get System Info". * libqmi-glib: ** Added support for 'embedded' and 'pcie' endpoint types. ** Added support for QMAPv5 data aggregation type. * qmicli: ** When built with QRTR support, the '--device' option now allows QRTR URIs (e.g. 'qrtr://0'). ** New '--link-list', '--link-add', '--link-delete' and '--link-delete-all' commands. ** New '--uim-monitor-refresh-file' command. ** New '--uim-monitor-refresh-all' command. ** New '--wds-bind-data-port' command. ** New '-loc-get-operation-mode' and '--loc-set-operation-mode' commands. ** New '-loc-get-engine-lock' and '--loc-set-engine-lock' commands. ** New '--wds-get-lte-attach-parameters' command. ** New '--wds-get-max-lte-attach-pdn-num' command. ** New '--wds-get-lte-attach-pdn-list' and '--wds-set-lte-attach-pdn-list' commands. ** Updated the '--wds-start-network' command with a timeout of 180s. ** Updated the '--wds-stop-network' command with a timeout of 120s. ** Updated the '--dms-set-firmware-preference' command to use a key-value pair based input instead of predefined fields. * collections: ** basic: added UIM event registration commands. ** basic: added UIM slot management commands. ** basic: added UIM refresh related commands. ** basic: added WDS bind data port commands. ** basic: added WDS initial LTE bearer management commands. ** basic: added NAS PLMN name commands. The following features which were backported to 1.26.x releases are also present in libqmi 1.28.0: * build: ** Avoid including qmi-version.h in dist, as its contents depend on the given configure options. * libqmi-glib: ** 5G support in the NAS signal info operations. ** BCD encoded strings should be read as arrays instead of NUL-terminated strings. * qmicli: ** nas: report EcIo, RSRP and phase also in 5GNR. Overview of changes in libqmi 1.26.0 ---------------------------------------- * Build now requires GLib/GObject/GIO 2.48. * Build updated with several improvements: ** The build has been updated to use by default all warnings enabled by AX_COMPILER_FLAGS(), and therefore when building the release from a git checkout, autoconf-archive >= 2017.03.21 is now required. This new build dependency isn't required when building from the release tarball. ** Also when building from a git checkout, beware because by default --enable-compile-warnings=error is enabled, which implies -Werror. If you'd like to build from git and avoid -Werror, you should explicitly use --enable-compile-warnings=yes (to keep the warnings but without being errors), --enable-compile-warnings=no (to disable all the extra warnings enabled by default) or --disable-Werror (to unconditionally make all compiler warnings non-fatal). * Added new message collections support, so that users can select which messages to include in the built library during configure with the --enable-collection option. Three predefined sets are given: ** minimal: the bare minimum messages required to control connectivity. ** basic: all messages and indications that ModemManager requires. ** full: all supported messages and indications. Users can install custom collections under data/ and reference them in the same way as the predefined sets. E.g. installing a new data/qmi-collection-custom.json set can be enabled during configure with --enable-collection=custom. * Added new GObject Introspection support in the library, that can be explicitly requested during configure with --enable-introspection=yes. With the new introspection support, the libqmi-glib library can now be used directly from e.g. python programs, as in the example included with the release. * Implemented new QRTR backend support, disabled by default. This new backend allows to perform QMI operations on systems with the Qualcomm IPC router protocol available (since Linux 4.7). Users can build the QRTR backend support with --enable-qrtr, and will require the corresponding kernel headers. When this backend is enabled, a new libqrtr-glib library is built and installed along with libqmi-glib. The API of this libqrtr-glib library, and the QRTR-specific APIs in libqmi-glib (e.g. qmi_device_new_from_node()) must not be considered stable yet, they may change in future versions of the project, even in 1.26.x updates. The libqmi-glib headers include a new QMI_QRTR_SUPPORTED symbol that specifies whether the QRTR backed has been enabled (if set to 1) or not (if set to 0). * Added 5GNR radio access technology support, with new enum values in both the DMS and NAS services. * New services: ** New 'GMS' (Telit General Modem Service) service, for now just implementing basic test get/set value commands. ** New 'DSD' (Data System Determination) service, implementing methods to get and set default bearer APN settings. * New request/response/indications: ** dms: implement "Get MAC Address" request/response. ** dms: renamed "Dell Get Firmware Version" to "Foxconn Get Firmware Version" as the command applies not only to the Dell-branded variant, but also to the generic Foxconn-branded models. The old APIs are kept available but flagged as deprecated. ** loc: implement "Set NMEA Types" request/response. ** loc: implement "Get NMEA Types" request/response. ** uim: implement "Switch Slot" request/response. ** uim: implement "Get Slot Status" request/response. ** uim: implement "Slot Status" indication. ** voice: implement "Indication Register" request/response. ** voice: implement "Originate USSD" request/response. ** voice: implement "Answer USSD" request/response. ** voice: implement "Cancel USSD" request/response. ** voice: implement "Release USSD" request/response. ** voice: implement "USSD" indication. ** voice: implement "Originate USSD No Wait" request/response. ** voice: implement "Originate USSD No Wait" indication. * New TLVs supported in existing messages: ** nas: added 'Extended List' and 'Bandwidth List' in "Get RF Band Information". ** wda: added 'Endpoint Info' in "Get Data Format". * libqmi-glib: ** Added g_autoptr() support to all public types. ** The qmi_message_get_version_introduced_full() method is now deprecated and should no longer be used in newly written code. This method will always return FALSE as the details of which protocol version introduced the message are no longer available. * qmi-proxy: ** Updated to keep track of QMI clients that have not been explicitly released, so that qmicli --client-cid=[CID] and --client-no-release-cid operations can handle indications properly. The following features which were backported to 1.24.x releases are also present in libqmi 1.26.0: * libqmi-glib: ** The logic behind QMI_DEVICE_OPEN_FLAGS_VERSION_INFO has been updated, and from now on it will only make sure the version info of the device is loaded when it's opened. The library will no longer prevent a given message from being sent to the module based on the version information kept in the message database. ** Updated string reading logic to make sure that all strings are valid UTF-8, and also automatically attempt parsing as GSM7 or UCS2 if the initial UTF-8 validation fails. *+ Renamed TLV 0x15 in the "WDA Get Data Format" message, and added new compat methods for the old name. ** Fixed the format of the NITZ information TLV, and added new compat methods for the old name. ** Fixed the format of the Home Network 3GPP2 TLV, and added new compat methods for the old name. ** Added new WDS verbose call end reasons in the IPv6, PPP, 3GPP, CM and Internal groups. ** Updated to detect QMI control ports exposed as 'smdpkt' or 'rpmsg' virtual devices. Overview of changes in libqmi 1.24.0 ---------------------------------------- * New services: ** New 'GAS' (Telit General Application Service) service, which allows switching between stored firmware images in Telit devices. * New request/responses/indications: ** uim: implement 'Change Provisioning Session' request/response. ** nas: implement Sierra-specific 'Swi Get Status' request/response. * New TLVs supported in existing messages: * nas: added 'Usage Preference' in "Get/Set System Selection Preference". * nas: added 'Network Name Source' in "Get Serving System" and "Get Home Network". * nas: added 'LTE Cell Access Status' in "Get System Info". * nas: added 'IMS Voice Support' in "Get System Info". * nas: added 'LTE eMBMS Coverage Info Trace ID' in "Get System Info". * nas: added 'Network Selection Registration Restriction' in "Get System Info". * nas: added 'LTE Registration Domain' in "Get System Info". * nas: added 'Disabled Modes' in "Get System Selection Preference". * nas: added 'Network Selection Registration Restriction" in "Get/Set System Selection Preference". * nas: added 'Voice Domain Preference' in "Get/Set System Selection Preference". * nas: added 'Network Scan Result' in "Network Scan". * dms: added 'Imei Software Version" in "Get IDs". * libqmi: ** New qmi_device_command_abortable() async method is used with requests that are abortable (both "WDS Start Network" and "NAS Network Scan" so far), so that the method waits for either the request succeed or for the abort operation to finish. This new method solves races when a successful response to the message is received after the abort has been requested (e.g. if receiving a successful response to WDS Start Network after the abort request has been sent, the async operation succeeds and the abort will be ignored). The user must understand that aborting a command initiated with qmi_device_command_abortable() doesn't mean it will fail as aborted, the command may actually succeed. Although this is a new command in the interface, both qmi_client_wds_start_network() and qmi_client_nas_network_scan() will use it internally and transparently for the user. ** New qmi_message_new_from_data() and qmi_message_get_data() methods to work with QMI messages that don't have QMUX headers. ** New support for symlinks in /dev/cdc-wdm ports. ** QMI over MBIM transaction timeout logic was simplified in order to rely on the QMI transaction timeout instead of the MBIM one. ** Reworked internals to have different 'QMI endpoint' implementations, in order to easily integrate new transports like QRTR. ** Added definition of LTE bands 164 through 168 in NAS service. ** Added retry support when opening the QmiDevice with the SYNC flag only (without the VERSION_CHECK). * qmi-proxy: ** New '--empty-timeout=[SECS}' option. * qmicli: ** New '--uim-change-provisioning-session' command. ** New '--gas-dms-get-firmware-list' command. ** New '--gas-dms-get-active-firmware' command. ** New '--gas-dms-set-active-firmware' command. ** New '--gas-noop' command. ** New '--nas-swi-get-status' command. ** Added support to request auto/manual network attachment when using '--nas-set-system-selection-preference'. * qmi-firmware-update: ** Added support for upgrading the Sierra Wireless EM7565 module with the new Sahara/Firehose protocol. * Several other minor improvements and fixes. The following features which were backported to 1.22.x releases are also present in libqmi 1.24.0: * Build updated to explicitly define max allowed GLib version. * New request/responses/indications: ** uim: new "Register Events" request/response. ** dms: new "Dell Change Device Mode" request/response. ** dms: new "Dell Get Firmware Version" request/response. * qmicli: ** New '--dms-dell-change-device-mode' command. ** New '--dms-dell-get-firmware-version' command. Overview of changes in libqmi 1.22.0 ---------------------------------------- * Build now looks for the correct python provider in the system during configure. * New services: ** New 'QoS' (Quality of Service) service, with some minimal initial implementation to support flow/network status querying. Additionally, some Sierra-specific commands are also implemented that allow querying per-bearer statistics (e.g. if multiple dedicated and default LTE bearers are used). * New request/responses/indications: ** loc: new "Register Events" request/response. ** loc: new "NMEA" indication. ** loc: new "Engine State" indication. ** loc: new "Fix Recurrence Type" indication. ** loc: new "GNSS Sv Info" indication. ** loc: new "Inject Predicted Orbits Data" request/response/indication. ** loc: new "Get Predicted Orbits Data Source" request/response/indication. ** loc: new "Set Server" request/response/indication. ** loc: new "Get Server" request/response/indication. ** loc: new "Delete Assistance Data" request/response/indication. ** loc: new "Set Operation Mode" request/response/indication. ** loc: new "Get Operation Mode" request/response/indication. ** loc: new "Inject XTRA Data" request/response/indication. ** uim: new "Card Status" indication. ** wds: new "Get Default Profile Num" request/response. ** wds: new "Set Default Profile Num" request/response. ** wds: new Sierra-specific "Swi Create Profile Indexed" request/response. * New TLVs supported in existing messages: ** loc: added multiple new TLVs in the "Position Report" indication, which was a minimal skeleton in previous releases. ** loc: added 'Fix Recurrence Type' TLV in "Start". ** loc: added 'Minimum Interval between Position Reports' TLV in "Start". ** nas: added 'Acquisition Order Preference' TLV in "Set System Selection Preference" and "Get System Selection Preference". ** nas: added 'Phy CA Agg Secondary Cells' TLV in "Get LTE Cphy CA Info". ** wds: added 'WDS APN Disabled Flag' TLV in "Create Profile", "Modify Profile" and "Get Profile Settings". ** wds: added 'WDS Roaming Disallowed Flag' TLV in "Create Profile", "Modify Profile" and "Get Profile Settings". * libqmi: ** Assume TLVs < 0x10 are mandatory by default. ** Fixed some missing QmiProtocolErrors and updated some existing ones. ** Implemented support to allow enabling QMI indications when in MBIM mode. ** Addded missing QmiNasBandPreference and QmiDmsLteBandCapability flags. ** Deprecate QMI_CORE_ERROR_TLV_EMPTY, as empty TLVs are allowed by the protocol and totally valid e.g. in 0-sized string-type TLVs. ** Moved all deprecated APIs to 'qmi-compat.h' header. * qmicli: ** New '--loc-get-position-report' command. ** New '--loc-get-gnss-sv-info' command. ** New '--loc-follow-position-report' command. ** New '--loc-follow-gnss-sv-info' command. ** New '--loc-follow-nmea' command. ** New '--loc-delete-assistance-data' command. ** New '--qos-get-flow-status' command. ** New '--qos-get-network-status' command. ** New '--qos-swi-read-data-stats' command. ** New '--qos-reset' command. ** New '--wds-create-profile' command. ** New '--wds-modify-profile' command. ** New '--wds-delete-profile' command. ** New '--wds-get-default-profile-num' command. ** New '--wds-set-default-profile-num' command. ** New '--wds-swi-create-profile-indexed' command. ** Added support to request acquisition order preference updates when using '--nas-set-system-selection-preference'. ** Fixed slot indices in '--uim-get-card-status'. ** Fixed '--uim-set-pin-protection', '--uim-verify-pin", "--uim-unblock-pin", and '--uim-change-pin', so that a dummy application identifier is always used. ** Updated so that all commands work even through QMI over MBIM, even if indications are required to complete the command (e.g. most PDC and LOC commands). * qmi-network: ** Avoid creating invalid --wds-start-network when APN is not set. * Several other minor improvements and fixes. The following features which were backported to 1.20.x releases are also present in libqmi 1.22.0: * qmicli: ** Exit on --wds-start-network parse errors. ** Fix reading current technology in --wds-get-data-bearer-technology. * qmi-firmware-update: ** Fix --ignore-version-errors. ** Fix byte counts in error message. * libqmi-glib: ** dms: factory settings related operations since 1.0 ** Avoid closing same file descriptor twice. ** Don't leak the inner MbimDevice if MBIM_QMUX_ENABLED. Overview of changes in libqmi 1.20.0 ---------------------------------------- * New services: ** loc: new "LOC" (location) service, which e.g. allows controlling GPS devices in newer modules that don't implement the PDS service. Just some very basic implementation for now. * New request/responses: ** nas: new "Attach/Detach" request/response messages. ** wds: new "Get Channel Rates" request/response messages. ** dms: new 'Swi Get/Set USB Composition' request/response messages. * New TLVs supported in existing messages: ** nas: new 'Extended LTE Band Preference' TLV in "Set/Get SSP". ** dms: new 'Extended LTE Band Capability' TLV in "Get Band Capabilities". * libqmi: ** New 'QMI_DEVICE_SIGNAL_REMOVED' signal in the QmiDevice object, propagated through the qmi-proxy. ** New 'QMI_CLIENT_VALID' property in the QmiClient that allows detecting whether the underlying QmiDevice is usable or not. ** Defined additional LTE bands. * qmicli: ** New '--wds-set-ip-family' command. ** New '--wds-get-channel-rates' command. ** New '--uim-read-record' command. ** New '--dms-swi-get-usb-composition' and '--dms-swi-set-usb-composition' commands. * Several other minor improvements and fixes. The following features which were backported to 1.18.x releases are also present in libqmi 1.20.0: * libqmi-glib: ** Prefer realpath() to canonicalize_file_name(). ** Avoid signals sent to the qmi-proxy process. * qmi-firmware-update: ** Support USB3->USB2 mode changes during upgrade. Overview of changes in libqmi 1.18.0 ---------------------------------------- The full list of new features include: * libqmi: ** Implemented support for vendor-specific commands through a new qmi_device_command_full() operation and a new QmiMessageContext type. The original qmi_device_command() is flagged as deprecated. ** New 'QMI_DEVICE_OPEN_FLAGS_AUTO' flag in qmi_device_open() which allows automatic detection of the underlying protocol in a cdc-wdm device (either QMI or MBIM) and transparently uses it based on that. ** New qmi_device_close_async() operation, which allows closing a QmiDevice asynchronously (especially important when closing devices running QMI over MBIM, as this operation requires MBIM protocol cleanups). The original qmi_device_close() is flagged as deprecated. ** Fixed QmiWmsCdmaCauseCode enum names, and provided a compatibility layer keeping the old names (flagged as deprecated) to avoid breaking API. * New services: ** pdc: new "PDC" (persistent device configuration) service, which among other things, allows configuring the HP lt4120. * New request/responses: ** dms: new sierra-specific "SWI Get Current Firmware" request/response. ** dms: new hp-specific "HP Change Device Mode" request/response. ** dms: new "Set Firmware ID" request/response. ** dms: new "Get Boot Image Download Mode" request/response. ** dms: new "Set Boot Image Download Mode" request/response. ** wds: new "Create Profile" request/response. ** wds: new "Modify Profile" request/response. ** wds: new "Delete Profile" request/response. ** wds: new "Set Event Report" request/response. ** wds: new "Go Dormant" request/response. ** wds: new "Go Active" request/response. ** wds: new "Get Dormancy Status" request/response. ** pdc: new "Reset" request/response. ** pdc: new "Register" request/response. ** pdc: new "Config Change" request/response. ** pdc: new "Get Selected Config" request/response. ** pdc: new "Set Selected Config" request/response. ** pdc: new "List Configs" request/response. ** pdc: new "Delete Config" request/response. ** pdc: new "Load Config" request/response. ** pdc: new "Activate Config" request/response. ** pdc: new "Get Config Info" request/response. ** pdc: new "Get Config Limits" request/response. ** pdc: new "Get Default Config Info" request/response. ** pdc: new "Deactivate Config" request/response. ** uim: new "Power Off SIM" request/response. ** uim: new "Power On SIM" request/response. ** nas: new "Get Operator Name" request/response. ** wds: new "Bind Mux Data Port" request/response. * New indications: ** wds: new "Event report" indication. ** pdc: new "Get Selected Config" indication. ** pdc: new "Set Selected Config" indication. ** pdc: new "List Configs" indication. ** pdc: new "Load Config" indication. ** pdc: new "Activate Config" indication. ** pdc: new "Get Config Info" indication. ** pdc: new "Deactivate Config" indication. ** nas: new "Operator Name" indication. * New TLVs supported in existing messages: ** wda: updated "Set Data Format" request to allow specifying endpoint type and interface number. * qmi-firmware-update: ** This is a completely new tool that allows upgrading firmware in (at least) Sierra Wireless devices with MDM9200, MDM9x15 or MDM9x30 chipsets. Run the tool with --help and --help-examples to get more information on how to use it. * qmicli: ** The CLI no longer requires the '--device-open-mbim' explicit option when opening QMI capable MBIM devices, the automatic detection of QMI over MBIM is enabled by default. ** New '--device-open-qmi' option to disable the automatic detection of protocol and force using QMI. ** New '--dms-set-firmware-id' operation. ** New '--dms-get-software-version' operation. ** New '--dms-set-boot-image-download-mode' and '--dms-get-boot-image-download-mode' operations to configure the default download mode. ** New '--dms-set-firmware-preference' and '--dms-get-firmware-preference' operations to manage the current firmware preference. ** New '--wds-go-dormant', '--wds-go-active' and '--wds-get-dormancy-status' operations to manage dormancy related operations. ** New '--nas-get-rf-band-info' operation. ** New '--uim-sim-power-on' and '--uim-sim-power-off' operations. ** New '--nas-get-operator-name' operation. ** New '--wds-bind-mux-data-port' operation. ** Updated '--wda-set-data-format' to allow specifying endpoint type and interface number. ** If running in MBIM mode, enable MBIM logs and traces. ** By default the QmiDevice will be closed before exiting, e.g. so that the MBIM session is also closed. * docs: ** Updated the documentation so that each QMI message and each TLV specifies in which libqmi version it was introduced, using "since:" tags in the QMI message databases. ** Added indices for new symbols introduced in the major libqmi releases, as well as for symbols flagged as deprecated. * build: ** Bump GLib requirement to 2.36. ** Added GUdev requirement for qmi-firmware-update, that may be explicitly disabled using the new '--without-udev' configure switch. ** The new '--disable-firmware-update' configure switch allows completely disabling the qmi-firmware-update tool build. ** The new '--disable-mm-runtime-check' configure switch allows disabling the runtime check for ModemManager done by the qmi-firmware-update tool. The following features which were backported to 1.16.x releases are also present in libqmi 1.18.0: * dms: flagged several methods as available since DMS 1.1. * nas: Fix RX/TX mixup in 'Get LTE Cphy CA Info'. * libqmi-glib: ** Fix segfault in QmiDevice when cancellable already cancelled. ** Fix releasing transaction on MBIM error. * qmicli: ** Added support for IP type in --wds-start-network. ** Fix options receiving a list of flags. ** Fix second ctrl+c handling. ** Avoid converting to dB invalid SINR values. * qmi-proxy: ** Fix segfault when trying to use already disposed clients. ** Fix segfault when trying to use already disposed transactions. ** Plug several memleaks in error conditions. * build: ** Guard invocations of g_type_init(). ** Fix checking for libmbim. Overview of changes in libqmi 1.16.0 ---------------------------------------- * New `--enable-mbim-qmux' option during configure, which enables the support for using an MBIM control device as transport for the QMI messages, only if the MBIM device implements the "QMI service". This setting is automatically enabled if libmbim >= 1.14.0 is found in the system, and can be explicitly disabled with `--disable-mbim-qmux'. * New request/responses: ** nas: new "Get LTE Cphy CA Info" request/response. ** nas: new "Force Network Search" request/response. * qmi-network: ** Fixed several bashisms. The following features which were backported to 1.14.x releases are also present in libqmi 1.16.0: * Added compatibility symbols for some API breaks introduced in 1.14.0: ** qmi_message_dms_set_service_programming_code_input_get_current was renamed to qmi_message_dms_set_service_programming_code_input_get_current_code. ** qmi_message_dms_set_service_programming_code_input_get_new was renamed to qmi_message_dms_set_service_programming_code_input_get_new_code. ** qmi_message_dms_set_service_programming_code_input_set_current was renamed to qmi_message_dms_set_service_programming_code_input_set_current_code. ** qmi_message_dms_set_service_programming_code_input_set_new was renamed to qmi_message_dms_set_service_programming_code_input_set_new_code. ** QMI_NAS_SIM_REJECT_STATE_SIM_VAILABLE was renamed to QMI_NAS_SIM_REJECT_STATE_SIM_AVAILABLE. * libqmi-glib: ** Fixed QMI_DMS_BAND_CAPABILITY_BC_15 enum value so that it isn't treated as a negative value. * qmicli: ** Fixed --dms-get-band-capabilities output on 32-bit platforms. ** Fixed license text of the voice service implementation. Overview of changes in libqmi 1.14.0 ---------------------------------------- * This version comes with a couple of small API breaks: ** ECIO value type in "NAS Event Report Indication" is given as unsigned. ** ECIO value in ECIO List array type in "NAS Get Signal Strenght" is given as unsigned. ** QMI_NAS_SIM_REJECT_STATE_SIM_AVAILABLE enum name was fixed. * The library and tools now support working with modems which only implement raw IP (i.e. no ethernet headers) in the WWAN interface. This relies on the kernel to expose '/sys/class/net//qmi/raw_ip' sysfs files for each WWAN network interface (available since Linux 4.5-rc1). * New initial support for the 'Voice' service. * New request/responses: ** wms: new "Get Supported Messages" request/response. ** wds: new "Get Supported Messages" request/response. ** voice: new "Get Supported Messages" request/response. ** uim: new "Get Supported Messages" request/response. ** nas: new "Get Supported Messages" request/response. ** wda: new "Get Supported Messages" request/response. ** dms: new "Get Supported Messages" request/response. ** wds: new "Set Autoconnect Setting" request/response. ** wds: new "Get Autoconnect Setting" request/response. ** wds: new "Get PDN Throttle Info" request/response. ** uim: new "Change PIN" request/response. ** uim: new "Unblock PIN" request/response. ** uim: new "Verify PIN" request/response. ** uim: new "Set PIN protection" request/response. ** voice: new "Dial Call" request/response. ** voice: new "End Call" request/response. ** voice: new "Answer Call" request/response. ** voice: new "Get Config" request/response. ** voice: new "Get Supported Messages" request/response. * New indications: ** wms: new "SMSC Address" indication. ** pds: new "GPS Ready" indication. ** wds: new "Packet Service Status" indication. * New TLVs supported in existing messages: ** wds: support "UMTS Granted QoS" TLV in 'Get Current Settings'. ** nas: support "Home Network 3GPP MNC" in "Get Home Network" to know whether MNC is 2 or 3 digits. * The qmicli tool has been updated with several new functionalities: ** New '--get-wwan-iface' command line option to allow querying which is the WWAN interface associated with a given /dev/cdc-wdm device. ** New '--wds-get-current-settings' command line option to query the current settings in the WDS service. ** New '--get-expected-data-format' and '--set-expected-data-format' actions to get or set the data format expected by the kernel. ** LTE band descriptions are now printed along with the EARFCN. ** Updated '--wds-start-network' arguments to allow specifying "key=value" pairs. The old legacy "[(APN),(PAP|CHAP|BOTH),(Username),(Password)]" format is kept as valid for backwards compatibility, although it should be assumed deprecated. ** Updated '--wds-start/stop-network' to allow autoconnect settings, and 3GPP or 3GPP2 profile parameters. * The qmi-network helper script has been updated with several new features: ** Allow running with the qmi-proxy. ** Allow running qmi-network with multiple devices at the same time. ** Automatic link layer protocol update before connecting. ** Allow specifying APN user/password. * Added command completion support in qmicli. * Other bugfixes and minor improvements. The following features which were backported to 1.12.x releases are also present in libqmi 1.14.0: * New request/responses: ** dms: new "Set FCC Authentication" request/response. Overview of changes in libqmi 1.12.0 ---------------------------------------- * New `--enable-qmi-username' option during configure, which allows specifying which will be the user owning the /dev/cdc-wdm character devices of all QMI modems (udev rules are installed to change file ownership). If this option is used, the qmi-proxy will only allow connections from processes running by the specified user or by the root user. * New TLV builder and reader API, which is much more strict and secure. The autogenerated code will no longer first check if there is enough space available in the output message buffer and then write the parsed contents. Instead, the new reader API will be used, which is able to check for the expected size directly before writing in the buffer. * New unit tests to check messages built by the libqmi-glib library, using a fake proxy. In order to support these, the QmiDevice has two new properties: ** "device-no-file-check": instructs the QmiDevice to avoid checking if the specified file exists. ** "device-proxy-path": specifies a custom abstract socket path for the QmiProxy, to avoid using the default one. * New A-GPS support in the PDS service: ** pds: added "Get Default Tracking Session" request/response ** pds: added "Set Default Tracking Session" request/response ** pds: added "Get AGPS Config" request/response ** pds: added "Set AGPS Config" request/response * Updated minumum available version of several messages: ** dms: "UIM Get IMSI" seems to be available in DMS 1.1 already ** dms: "UIM Get ICCID" seems to be available in DMS 1.1 already * Other bugfixes and minor improvements: ** Attach timeout and idle events to the thread-default context. ** Fix bashisms in the qmi-network script. ** Fix qmi_message_set_transaction_id() in non-CTL messages. ** Fix segfault due to race condition in the QmiProxy. ** Fixed printing contents of structs with fixed sized strings in qmi-codegen. Overview of changes in libqmi 1.10.0 ---------------------------------------- * Fixed default internal proxy timeout for requests. * Added initial support for the WDA service. * Added support for cell location info retrieval. * Added support for UIM card status retrieval. * Added support to specify net open flags in the command line. Overview of changes in libqmi 1.8.0 ---------------------------------------- This version comes with one small API break: * Enum value QMI_SERVICE_RMTFS is not 0x14, but 14. I doubt anyone has been hit by this issue, anyway. Additional changes include: * Support for sharing the QMI port through multiple processes with the new 'qmi-proxy' infrastructure. * api: added new known service ID enumeration values * wds: added "Get Profile List" request/response * wds: added "Get Profile Settings" request/response * wds: added "Get Default Settings" request/response * cli: add --wds-get-profile-list * cli: add --wds-get-default-settings * man: added qmi-network manpage, autogenerated from --help-all Overview of changes in libqmi 1.6.0 ---------------------------------------- This version comes with one small API break: * dms: 'SID' TLV in "Activate Manual" is a guint8, not a string Additional changes include: * Extended API with macros to check for the libqmi-glib version in use * Setup libtool versioning in libqmi-glib * Added initial support for the PBM (phonebook) service * Added initial support for the UIM service * Added initial support for the OMA (Open Mobile Alliance) service * nas: added "Get Tx Rx Info" request/response * wds: added "Get Packet Statistics" request/response * dms: added support for the 'PRL' TLV in "Activate Manual" * cli: add --nas-get-tx-rx-info * cli: add --wds-get-packet-statistics * cli: add --get-service-version-info * cli: add --uim-read-transparent * cli: add --uim-get-file-attributes * cli: fix following network status until disconnected * tests: use gtester to run unit tests * man: added qmicli manpage, autogenerated from --help-all * Also fixed several minor bugs and memory leaks Overview of changes in libqmi 1.4.0 ---------------------------------------- * dms: fix minimum version requirement for DMS Get/Set Operating Mode * nas: added 'Network Time' indication * utils: fix reading sized uints in BE systems * cli: add --dms-activate-manual * cli: implemented setting System Selection Preference * cli: fix technology preference persistence reporting * cli: fix reading new PIN in '--dms-uim-change-pin' * docs: always generate documentation at dist time * tests: fixed BE/LE tests in BE systems Overview of changes in libqmi 1.2.0 ---------------------------------------- * Builds with Python3 * Fixed DMS activation code string handling * Enhanced "start network" functionality in qmicli Overview of changes in libqmi 1.0 ---------------------------------------- Initial release.
