Hey! > The following MR adds support for reporting the current carrier config > in use, and also implements automatic carrier config switching based > on QMI PDC, initially done for the DW5821e. > https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mobile-broadband/ModemManager/merge_requests/66 > > A single modem may have multiple per-carrier configurations stored, > and then we can select which one to use by default based on the > currently available SIM card. E.g. a modem running with a Verizon SIM > card will use the Verizon-specific configuration, and if the user > inserts an AT&T SIM card, ModemManager will detect it and > automatically switch to the AT&T-specific configuration. > > This new carrier config logic also allows us to integrate > "carrier-specific upgrade paths" in fwupd. E.g. vendors may push to > fwupd firrmware updates for a given module that may apply to specific > operators only. This is quite common because each operator ends up > with specific firmware versions and configs tested and approved, and > so we may want to limit upgrading firmware only to those versions > approved in each carrier by default. > > The integration of firmware update for ModemManager devices is > currently limited to those supporting fastboot and/or QMI PDC. E.g. > the DW5821e or some other Quectel devices. > https://github.com/hughsie/fwupd/pull/875 >
This is now merged in git master. Also, worth noting, fwupd 1.2.6 already supports the ModemManager integration. -- Aleksander https://aleksander.es _______________________________________________ ModemManager-devel mailing list ModemManager-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/modemmanager-devel
