Yes, unfortunately this is also the nastiest part of the GPRS atom logic. From past experience I can tell you that extending the logic will not be easy. > Most of this atom is context related which is common. > > Fast look gives me this division of gprs: > - gprs atom: suspend, attached, status handling > - lte atom: status handling > - context atom (common part for 3G and LTE): whole context handling, > cid map, ~80% of current src/gprs.c, + some IMS stuff > all would probably need to use netreg_watch > Most of the context management can be done on a separate atom / interface if needed. > In my opinion, combined gprs atom would be easier to do and probably enough, > separate atoms would be more "looking into the future" like but I am not > sure if this division is necessary. Looking at the current ConnectionManager API, none of the properties (Powered, Attached, Suspended, RoamingAllowed) are applicable to LTE. If we use a separate LTE atom then the Bearer property's 'lte' value is redundant as well. So why would you want to carry this baggage around for the user of LTE-only systems? Without those properties and the associated logic, the LTE-only atom becomes quite trivial, assuming the context management is factored out somewhere nicely. You might be right of course and this separation is not necessary. But we won't know until we try.
