Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/3] net: wwan: core: propagate modem control signals to port drivers
Date: Tue,  4 Aug 2026 17:34:09 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260804233411.1953445-2-peter.hunt@opengear.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260804233411.1953445-1-peter.hunt@opengear.com>

The WWAN character device emulates the TTY modem-control ioctls
(TIOCMGET/TIOCMSET/TIOCMBIC/TIOCMBIS) for AT and QCDM ports, but the
result is only stored in port->at_data.mdmbits and never reaches the port
driver. A driver therefore cannot act on the host raising or dropping
DTR/RTS, even though some modems depend on it (e.g. they withhold
unsolicited AT result codes until the host asserts DTR).

Add optional ->tiocmget/->tiocmset operations to struct wwan_port_ops and
call them from the AT/QCDM ioctl path. ->tiocmset is passed the resolved
TIOCM_* bitmask after BIC/BIS/SET has been applied; ->tiocmget, when
provided, refreshes the cached bits from the device. Drivers that do not
implement them keep the previous store-only behaviour.
