Hi,
going through the ACM specification I have come to the conclusion
that our in kernel model for modem support is wrong and stupid.
The problem is that we strictly speaking don't have modem support.
We have support for com ports, but not modems.
However a modern modem rarely really hangs on a com port.
In fact ACM would allow for control traffic to be handled out of band
doing away with a major ugliness of the AT command set. I see
no sane way to press that into a serial line emulation. And frankly
it makes no sense to do so. The kernel should face reality.
Is this an insane idea, or should I air it on linux-kernel?
Regards
Oliver
