The original sysinfoex_parse() in MMBroadbandModemHuawei does not handle
unquoted <sysmode_name> and <submode_name> fields in ^SYSINFOEX responses,
which are sen on some Huawei modems (e.g. E303). This patch moves the
^SYSINFOEX parsing code to mm-modem-helpers-huawei.c, fixes the regex for
handling unquoted strings in ^SYSINFOEX responses, and adds unit tests.
The original sysinfo_parse() in MMBroadbandModemHuawei incorrectly sets
'out_sys_submode_valid' to TRUE even when <sys_submode> is not present
in a ^SYSINFO response. This patch moves the code to
mm-modem-helpers-huawei.c, fixes the regex for parsing ^SYSINFO
responses, and adds unit tests.

Huawei MU736 prematurely fires a ^NDISSTAT unsolicited message upon a
network-initiated disconnection. The modem can go into a bad state if a
reconnect attempt happens before the disconnection completes. This patch works
around the issue by delaying the reporting of the disconnection.

This patch replaces mm_bearer_report_disconnection() with a more generic
mm_bearer_report_connection_status(), which allows reporting any
connection status of a bearer. This further allows getting rid of those
custom report_connection_status functions in plugic specific bearer
subclasses.
Note that while plugin-specific implementations can receive multiple
'MMBearerConnectionStatus' values, the generic implementation is only allowed
to receive DISCONNECTED. Plugins need to make sure that they process all the
other status values, and only report DISCONNECTED to the parent when required.
MBM:
The MBM bearer implementation of report_connection_status() expects either
CONNECTED or DISCONNECTED. If any of these is received and there is an ongoing
connection attempt, the corresponding operation will be completed. If there is
no connection attempt, we will just handle the DISCONNECTED state, calling the
parent method to notify that the modem got network-disconnected.
Icera:
The Icera bearer implementation of report_connection_status() expects either
CONNECTED, CONNECT FAILED or DISCONNECTED. If any of these is received and
there is an ongoing connection or disconnection attempt, the corresponding
operation will be completed. If there is no connection or disconnection
attempt, we will just handle the CONNECT FAILED and DISCONNECTED states,
calling the parent method (always with DISCONNECTED) to notify that the modem
got network-disconnected.
Option/HSO:
The Option/HSO bearer implementation of report_connection_status() expects
either CONNECTED, CONNECTION FAILED or DISCONNECTED. If any of these is
received and there is an ongoing connection or disconnection attempt, the
corresponding operation will be completed. If there is no connection or
disconnection attempt, we will just handle the CONNECTION FAILED and
DISCONNECTED states, calling the parent method (always with DISCONNECTED) to
notify that the modem got network-disconnected.
Huawei:
The Huawei bearer implementation of report_connection_status() expects either
CONNECTED or DISCONNECTED. These messages are not used to process pending
connection or disconnection attempts; so if they are received while one of
these is on-going, it will just be ignored. CONNECTED reports are also
ignored, so we will just handle the DISCONNECTED state, calling the parent
method to notify that the modem got network-disconnected.
Altair-LTE:
The Altair-LTE bearers will only report DISCONNECTED on network-disconnected
cases. There is no custom report_connection_status().
Novatel-LTE:
The Novatel-LTE bearers will only report DISCONNECTED on network-disconnected
cases. There is no custom report_connection_status().
This patch changes MMBroadbandModemHuawei to use ^NDISSTAT unsolicited
messages to handle network-initiated disconnection. As a ^NDISSTAT
unsolicited message is similar to a ^NDISSTATQRY response, the patch
extends the ^NDISSTATQRY parser code to handle both ^NDISSTAT and
^NDISSTATQRY responses.
Don't query udev for the tag every time we recreate a bearer, just do it once.
For some reason, re-querying the same tag after the first time doesn't always
return the proper result.
This patch ignores the ^RFSWITCH unsolicited messages in order to avoid
them being mixed with other unsolicited messages. The modem power state
is explicitly determined by the ^RFSWITCH? command, if supported, so we
don't need to depend on the ^RFSWITCH unsolicited messages.
Despite +CSCS? may claim supporting UCS2, Huawei modems always report
the oerator name in ASCII in a +COPS response. This patch addresses that
by always assuming the charset is IRA when parsing the operator name in a
+COPS response.
This patch modifies the regular expressions for parsing ^RSSI, ^RSSILVL,
and ^HRSSILVL responses to handle any whitespace that is inserted
between the colon and the RSSI value.

We now have a single 'CurrentModes' property which contains both values in a
tuple with signature "(uu)".
Also, rename 'SetAllowedModes()' to 'SetCurrentModes()', and update the list of
arguments expected to have a single "(uu)" tuple.
Newer Huawei modems, like the E3276 or the ME906 won't support ^SYSINFO, and we
should instead use the newer ^SYSINFOEX. By default, use ^SYSINFOEX when
available, as it provides more information than the plain ^SYSINFO.
E.g.:
^SYSINFOEX:2,3,0,1,,3,"WCDMA",41,"HSPA+"
^SYSINFOEX:2,3,1,1,1,3,”WCDMA”,46,”DC-HSPA+”
These messages give us information about the current connection status in the
NDIS interface. We already have other means to know this status, so we just
ignore the unsolicited message for now.
E.g.:
^NDISSTAT: 1,,,"IPV4"
Newer Huawei modems use ^HCSQ to report per-interface signal quality values,
but we don't know yet what each field means for each technology, so just ignore
them for now.
E.g.:
^HCSQ: "GSM", 53
^HCSQ: "WCDMA", 26, 24, 43
^HCSQ: "LTE", 40, 28, 216, 14
We also don't use this message to update current access technology information,
as it is not detailed enough (e.g. WCDMA doesn't specify whether it's plain UMTS
or HSDPA or HSPA+...)
Instead of deciding in advance which data port to use, we let the dialling
operation gather it. For the generic dialling logic, ATD-based, always an
'AT' port will be used as data port, even if we grabbed a 'net' port. Those
plugins that can work with 'net' ports will grab the specific 'net' port
themselves.
Modems with ECM (e.g. usb0) ports should use AT^NDISDUP in the control port to
request the connection and afterwards just fire up the DHCP client in the net
port.

Franko Fang <fangxiaozhi@huawei.com>
And afterwareds reviewed and updated by:
Aleksander Morgado <aleksander@gnu.org>
Many Huawei CDMA modems implement vendor commands for 1x and EVDO
signal quality, so use them since they are more accurate than the
generic signal checking.
(port of a similar patch for MM_06 by heiher <admin@heiher.info>)
We will not report 'CS' as a supported mode every time '2G' is supported. This
actually was forcing all plugins to handle a 'CS' fallback when they didn't have
CS-specific mode setup. So, to simplify things, we will only report 'CS' as
supported for those plugins which actually allow to select 'CS' mode (e.g. the
'wavecom' plugin).
Both the ModemManager daemon and the mmcli will now include `libmm-glib.h' only.
We also handle two new special `_LIBMM_INSIDE_MM' and `LIBMM_INSIDE_MMCLI'
symbols, which if included before the `libmm-glib.h' library allow us to:
* Don't include the libmm-glib high level API in the ModemManager daemon, as
the object names would clash with those in the core.
* Define some of the methods of helper objects to be included only if compiling
ModemManager daemon or the mmcli.
Different ports of the same modem may get handled by different drivers. We
therefore need to provide a list of drivers (new `Modem.Drivers' property with
signature 'as') instead of just one (removed `Modem.Driver' property with
signature 's').
$ sudo mmcli -m 0 | grep drivers
| drivers: 'qcserial, qmi_wwan'
