[PATCH 1/2] n_gsm: improve behaviour with encoding 0

[PATCH 1/2] n_gsm: improve behaviour with encoding 0

[Eric Bénard]

* on Telit & Sim.com modems, using encoding 0, opening a new DLC
randomly fails. Not setting PF bit of the control byte gives a
reliable behaviour on these modems.

* note that the detailed documentation of CMUX for both these
modems doesn't set this bit when sending the UIH frame with the
MSC command :

+n_gsm.c GSM 0710 tty multiplexor HOWTO
+===================================================
+
+This line discipline implements the GSM 07.10 multiplexing protocol
+detailed in the following 3GPP document :
+http://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/07_series/07.10/0710-720.zip
+
+This document give some hints on how to use this driver with GPRS and 3G
+modems connected to a physical serial port.
+
+How to use it
+-------------
+1- initialize the modem in 0710 mux mode (usually AT+CMUX= command) through
+its serial port. Depending on the modem used, you can pass more or less
+parameters to this command,
+2- switch the serial line to using the n_gsm line discipline by using
+TIOCSETD ioctl,
+3- configure the mux using GSMIOC_GETCONF / GSMIOC_SETCONF ioctl,
+
+Major parts of the initialization program :
+#include <linux/gsmmux.h>
+#define N_GSM0710	21	/* GSM 0710 Mux */
+#define DEFAULT_SPEED	B115200
+#define SERIAL_PORT	/dev/ttyS0
+
+	int ldisc = N_GSM0710;
+	struct gsm_config c;
+	struct termios configuration;
+
+	/* open the serial port connected to the modem */
+	fd = open(SERIAL_PORT, O_RDWR | O_NOCTTY | O_NDELAY);
+
+	/* configure the serial port : speed, flow control ... */
+
+	/* send the AT commands to switch the modem to CMUX mode
+	   and check that it's succesful (should return OK) */
+	write(fd, "AT+CMUX=0\r", 10);
+
+	/* experience showed that some modems need some time before
+	   being able to answer to the first MUX packet so a delay
+	   may be needed here in some case */
+	sleep(3);
+
+	/* use n_gsm line discipline */
+	ioctl(fd, TIOCSETD, &ldisc);
+
+	/* get n_gsm configuration */
+	ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_GETCONF, &c);
+	/* we are initiator and need encoding 0 (basic) */
+	c.initiator = 1;
+	c.encapsulation = 0;
+	/* our modem defaults to a maximum size of 127 bytes */
+	c.mru = 127;
+	c.mtu = 127;
+	/* set the new configuration */
+	ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_SETCONF, &c);
+
+	/* and wait for ever to keep the line discipline enabled */
+	while(1) sleep(1);
+
+4- create the devices corresponding to the "virtual" serial ports (take care,
+each modem has its configuration and some DLC have dedicated functions,
+for example GPS), starting with minor 1 (DLC0 is reserved for the management
+of the mux)
+
+MAJOR=`cat /proc/devices |grep gsmtty | awk '{print $1}`
+for i in `seq 1 4`; do
+	mknod /dev/ttygsm$i c $MAJOR $i
+done
+
+5- use these devices as plain serial ports.
+for example, it's possible :
+- and to use gnokii to send / receive SMS on ttygsm1
+- to use ppp to establish a datalink on ttygsm2
+
+6- first close all virtual ports before closing the physical port.
+
+Additional Documentation
+------------------------
+More practical details on the protocol and how it's supported by industrial
+modems can be found in the following documents :
+http://www.telit.com/module/infopool/download.php?id=616

here is what I get when closing the physical serial port and when a virtual

That looks like it wants reporting to Arnd as it looks like fall out from
the tty_lock/unlock changes removing the big kernel lock.

People will probably copy this without much thinking. It's better to use
pause() in the loop to let the process sink to swap completely instead
of waking it every second to do nothing.

Any change needs doing with reference to the standard not modem specific
hacks. Chances are the modem is right about the PF bit and we perhaps are
not - but it's not an encoding dependant bit so the patch is certainly
wrong.

In this case:

5.4.3.1 says (of UI/UIH etc) 'both stations shall set the P bit to 0'

so the modem is right and we are wrong.

I think what is actually needed is to just remove the PF setting
completely for that function. Obviously the other modems don't care or
check the bit.

Thanks for the right analysis, I got lost in the specification and didn't 
found this. I'll update the patch as per your comments and resend a v2.

While testing this, I met several problems with Telit modems. I didn't found 
anything suspicious in the log.

I attach the log for the 2 following case :
- Simcom SIM300 : mux establish fine, pppd launch and the link establish (I 
interrupted the process), a serial terminal can talk to the modem and get answer,
- Telit UC864E : mux establish fine, pppd blocks after sending AT, a serial 
terminal can talk to the modem and get answer so I don't understand why chat 
fails,

In the 2 cases, I'm using the same kernel, on the same model of ARM9 System On 
Module, on the same UART (and I switched the SOM between Telit/Simcom boards 
to be sure the problem doesn't come from here).
And in the 2 cases, pppd works fine on the physical serial link.

If you have any idea of where to search for the problem I can do some tests.

Thanks,
Eric

First guess would be to try fiddling the flow control, could be the modem
for some reason thinks it is currently flow controlled ?

[PATCH v2 1/2] n_gsm: add a documentation

[Eric Bénard]

* this documentation gives some details on how to get the n_gsm
line discipline to work with modems supporting 07.10 basic option.

* it was tested on Telit and Simcom modems.

+n_gsm.c GSM 0710 tty multiplexor HOWTO
+===================================================
+
+This line discipline implements the GSM 07.10 multiplexing protocol
+detailed in the following 3GPP document :
+http://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/07_series/07.10/0710-720.zip
+
+This document give some hints on how to use this driver with GPRS and 3G
+modems connected to a physical serial port.
+
+How to use it
+-------------
+1- initialize the modem in 0710 mux mode (usually AT+CMUX= command) through
+its serial port. Depending on the modem used, you can pass more or less
+parameters to this command,
+2- switch the serial line to using the n_gsm line discipline by using
+TIOCSETD ioctl,
+3- configure the mux using GSMIOC_GETCONF / GSMIOC_SETCONF ioctl,
+
+Major parts of the initialization program :
+(a good starting point is util-linux-ng/sys-utils/ldattach.c)
+#include <linux/gsmmux.h>
+#define N_GSM0710	21	/* GSM 0710 Mux */
+#define DEFAULT_SPEED	B115200
+#define SERIAL_PORT	/dev/ttyS0
+
+	int ldisc = N_GSM0710;
+	struct gsm_config c;
+	struct termios configuration;
+
+	/* open the serial port connected to the modem */
+	fd = open(SERIAL_PORT, O_RDWR | O_NOCTTY | O_NDELAY);
+
+	/* configure the serial port : speed, flow control ... */
+
+	/* send the AT commands to switch the modem to CMUX mode
+	   and check that it's succesful (should return OK) */
+	write(fd, "AT+CMUX=0\r", 10);
+
+	/* experience showed that some modems need some time before
+	   being able to answer to the first MUX packet so a delay
+	   may be needed here in some case */
+	sleep(3);
+
+	/* use n_gsm line discipline */
+	ioctl(fd, TIOCSETD, &ldisc);
+
+	/* get n_gsm configuration */
+	ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_GETCONF, &c);
+	/* we are initiator and need encoding 0 (basic) */
+	c.initiator = 1;
+	c.encapsulation = 0;
+	/* our modem defaults to a maximum size of 127 bytes */
+	c.mru = 127;
+	c.mtu = 127;
+	/* set the new configuration */
+	ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_SETCONF, &c);
+
+	/* and wait for ever to keep the line discipline enabled */
+	daemon(0,0);
+	pause();
+
+4- create the devices corresponding to the "virtual" serial ports (take care,
+each modem has its configuration and some DLC have dedicated functions,
+for example GPS), starting with minor 1 (DLC0 is reserved for the management
+of the mux)
+
+MAJOR=`cat /proc/devices |grep gsmtty | awk '{print $1}`
+for i in `seq 1 4`; do
+	mknod /dev/ttygsm$i c $MAJOR $i
+done
+
+5- use these devices as plain serial ports.
+for example, it's possible :
+- and to use gnokii to send / receive SMS on ttygsm1
+- to use ppp to establish a datalink on ttygsm2
+
+6- first close all virtual ports before closing the physical port.
+
+Additional Documentation
+------------------------
+More practical details on the protocol and how it's supported by industrial
+modems can be found in the following documents :
+http://www.telit.com/module/infopool/download.php?id=616

[PATCH v2 2/2] n_gsm: fix UIH control byte : P bit should be 0

[Eric Bénard]

* the GSM 07.10 specification says in 5.4.3.1 that
'both stations shall set the P bit to 0'
  thanks to Alan Cox for finding this explanation in the spec

* without this fix, on Telit & Sim.com modems, opening a new DLC
randomly fails. Not setting PF bit of the control byte gives a
reliable behaviour on these modems.
