- Changes from version 1.20.0:
+ API:
- New 'Modem.Sar' interface to allow the host to manage the SAR
power level.
- New 'Modem.GetCellInfo()' method, that allows querying
information about the current serving and neighboring cells.
Currently including 'cell-type' and 'serving' fields for all
cell types, plus additional type-specific fields:
. CDMA: 'nid', 'sid', 'base-station-id', 'ref-pn' and
'pilot-strength'.
. GSM: 'operator-id', 'lac', 'ci', 'timing-advance', 'arfcn',
'base-station-id' and 'rx-level'.
. UMTS: 'operator-id', 'lac', 'ci', 'frequency-fdd-ul',
'frequency-fdd-dl', 'frequency-tdd', 'uarfcn', 'psc',
'rscp', 'ecio' and 'path-loss'.
. TDSCDMA: 'operator-id', 'lac', 'ci', 'uarfcn',
'cell-parameter-id', 'timing-advance', 'rscp' and
'path-loss'.
. LTE: 'operator-id', 'tac', 'ci', 'physical-ci', 'earfcn',
'rsrp', 'rsrq' and 'timing-advance'.
. 5GNR: 'operator-id', 'tac', 'ci', 'physical-ci', 'nrarfcn',
'rsrp', 'rsrq', 'sinr' and 'timing-advance'.
- New 'access-type-preference', 'roaming-allowance',
'profile-name', 'profile-enabled' and 'profile-source'
fields in the 'Bearer.Properties' property, that can also be
used in both 'Modem.Simple.Connect()' and
'Modem.CreateBearer()'.
- New 'Modem.Modem3gpp.SetPacketServiceState()' method and
'Modem.Modem3gpp.PacketServiceState' property, which allow
management the explicit attach or detach to packet service on
the current registered network.
- New 'Modem.Modem3gpp.SetNr5gRegistrationSettings()' method
and 'Modem.Modem3gpp.Nr5gRegistrationSettings' property, to
allow management of 5G specific settings like 'mico-mode' or
'drx-cycle'.
- New 'start-date', 'uplink-speed' and 'downlnk-speed' fields
in the 'Bearer.Stats' property.
- New 'Bearer.ReloadStatsSupported' property to indicate
whether reloading ongoing stats is supported or not.
- New 'Modem.Modem3gppProfileManager.IndexField' property, to
indicate which field is to be used as unique index in the
profile management operations.
- New 'Sim.SimType', 'Sim.EsimStatus' and 'Sim.Removability'
properties to improve the management of eSIM related
operations.
- New 'Sim.Gid1' and 'Sim.Gid2' properties, which allow
identifying SIM cards that should have different settings
applied.
- New 'Modem.Signal.SetupThresholds() method,
'Modem.Signal.RssiThreshold' and
'Modem.Signal.ErrorRateThreshold' to allow configuring
thresholds so that the modem emits indications whenever the
signal quality values change based on those thresholds. For
RSSI a delta amount of dBm can be given, and for error rate
just a boolean to enable or disable the corresponding event.
- New 'error-rate' fields in the 'Modem.Signal.Cdma',
'Modem.Signal.Evdo', 'Modem.Signal.Gsm', 'Modem.Signal.Umts',
'Modem.Signal.Lte' and 'Modem.Signal.Nr5g' properties.
+ Core:
- Detecting an eSIM without an active profile in the current
SIM slot will lead to the modem being in Failed state, in the
same way as if the slot was for a physical SIM and no SIM was
inserted.
- Default amount of AT probing attempts is updated to 6, to
cope with modems that are slower to boot.
- New '--test-mbimex-profile-management' option in the daemon,
to enable support for profile management operations using the
Microsoft extensions. This is an optional feature because it
requires using the 'apn-type' field as unique index, which
not all users of the profile management API may expect.
- Implemented some initial support to automatically hide
personal details (e.g. phone numbers, SMS contents...) from
logs, right now only applicable to QMI and MBIM logs. Updated
support for this feature will keep on being integrated in
future 1.20.x updates. The new '--log-personal-info' option
in the daemon allows to disable this feature completely.
- Added new filter match option for subsystem vendor id,
required in several PCI based Qualcomm modules.
- QCDM port probing will no longer automatically run for all
plugins, only in those that explicitly require it.
- Implemented support for suspend/resume detection based on
ChromeOS' powerd daemon.
- Added Cat-M and NB-IoT LPWA access technologies.
+ Modem interface: On 3GPP+3GPP2 multimode devices, a missing SIM
card will now force the modem into Failed state, as if it was a
3GPP-only device.
+ Simple interface: Explicitly wait for PS domain to be attached
during a connection attempt.
+ 3GPP interface: Updated to report domain registration changes
altogether whenever possible (e.g. when using the QMI or MBIM
protocols).
+ MBIM:
- Implemented support to use the Microsoft-defined MBIM
extensions v2 and v3 whenever supported by the device. The
ModemManager daemon will negotiate which version to use with
the modem, so that the highest version supported is enabled.
This negotiation applies to the whole device, so any other
user of the MBIM device will automatically start using the
newly agreed version.
- Implemented current modes switching using MBIMEx v2.0
extensions.
- Trigger explicit disconnection if a connection attempt fails.
- Modem will be flagged as unusable if 10 consecutive MBIM
requests timeout.
- Enabled multiplex support for devices in the WWAN subsystem.
+ QMI:
- Updated logic to by default prefer 'Signal Info' over the
deprecated 'Signal Strength' operations.
- Updated logic to by default prefer 'System Info' over the
deprecated 'Serving System' operations.
- Updated power state transition logic to ensure the new state
is reached before returning success to the user.
- Implemented support for the 'Modem3gppProfileManager.Updated'
signal using PDC refresh notifications.
- Modem will be flagged as unusable if 10 consecutive QMI
requests timeout.
- Implemented DTMF support.
- Implemented support for automatic SIM IMSI switch detection
under certain roaming scenarios.
- Updated the logic to move the PS domain state to 'registered'
based on the DSD System Status indications.
- Updated endpoint type detection logic to be based on the net
driver.
- Updated endpoint number selection to be based on the data
port.
- Updated connection logic to allocate separate WDS clients per
endpoint.
- Added support for PCO reporting.
+ plugins:
- quectel: Added FCC unlock support for the EM05-G.
- telit:
. Band management updated to prefer using QMI whenever
available, as well as to detect the #BND command format
automatically.
. Added support for LPWA modems.
- fibocom:
. Implemented optional support to power down and up the modem
during the update of the initial EPS bearer settings.
. Implemented initial EPS bearer settings management in the
MA510.
- intel: New generic plugin for Intel PCI devices with vid
0x8086.
- xmm: Prefer GNSS control ports explicitly tagged via udev
tags.
- foxconn: Use the new FOX QMI service to load firmware
version.
- cinterion: Added support for PCIe based devices.
- Use ldconfig_scriptlets macro.
- Switch to meson buildsystem, add meson BuildRequires and macros.
- Add xsltproc and pkgconfig(bash-completion) BuildRequires: New
dependencies.
