ModemManager 1.24.0

This is a new stable release of ModemManager.

The following notes are directed to package maintainers:

This version now requires:

• libmbim >= 1.32.0 (for the optional MBIM support)
• libqmi >= 1.36.0 (for the optional QMI support)

The most important features and changes in this release are the following:

API:

• Add new TIMEOUT, PROTOCOL, and THROTTLED core errors
• Add new MMCarrierLockError errors
• Add new Messaging interface SetDefaultStorage method
• Fix MM_BEARER_IP_FAMILY_ANY ABI break introduced in 1.20
• Add new Cell Broadcast API
• Report sub-system vendor and product IDs in Firmware device IDs
• Add new ID_MM_TTY_AT_PROBE_TRIES udev tag to control number of AT probes on a per-port basis for plugins that do not override generic probing logic.
• Add new Cell Broadcast API

Core:

• Improved handling of odd +CGDCONT responses
• Add support for putting modems in low-power mode during suspend
• Retry AT+CNUM a couple times if the SIM is busy
• Fix probing of modems that only expect a single AT port
• Reprobe modems on late port additions; ensures modems use the optimal control channel regardless of kernel/udev timing
• Ignore FASTBOOT ports during probing
• Better logging of user requests
• Fix probing of single-port devices by starting support check on first port addition
• Don't crash as often due to assumption that a primary modem port always exists
• Add support for loading and setting initial EPS bearer settings
• Quite a few memory leak fixes
• Lay groundwork for Intel XMM7xxx RPC-based devices
• restart AT probing if a port is stuck in PPP mode when modem is detected
• Serialize core modem operations to prevent multiple D-Bus clients from interrupting each other's operations
• Work around elogind sometimes not sending the PrepareForSleep signal
• Add generic Qualcomm Firehose and Sahara firmware update support
• Fix SIM unlock behavior being treated at SIM hot-swaps
• Detect 4G & 5G modem capabilities with newer AT commands

Modem interface:

• Logic to detect SIM swaps has been improved
• Do not set up carrier configs if the eSIM has no profiles
• Add delay between consecutive power state transitions for reliability
• Allow low-power state change while modem is enabled

3GPP interface:

• Add 'NetworkRejection' property reporting errors during network registration

Location interface:

• Allow enabling the interface without a SIM

Profile Manager interface:

• Throttle updates from the modem to once every two seconds

Messaging interface:

• Validate supported storages
• Load default storage at initialization time

Bearer:

• Add new 'force' property to set EPS initial bearer settings

udev:

• Always ignore Qualcomm recovery layout devices (05c6:9008)
• Add ID_MM_QMI_PREALLOCATED_LINKS tag for NET ports
• Add ID_MM_QMI_PCO_DISABLED tag to disable PCO

mmcli:

• Higher long-running operation timeouts to avoid exiting before MM is done
• Print bearer D-Bus path after connection
• Add commands for getting/setting Cell Broadcast properties

libmm-glib:

• 3gpp-profile: fix loading roaming allowance and profile source

SMS:

• Ensure send/store always uses the same modem port
• Better re-assemble multi-part messages using both number and reference

Dispatcher:

• New 'setup' dispatcher runs after port probing but before ModemManager takes control

qrtr-bus-watcher:

• Increase wait time after probing to more reliably detect modems

MBIM:

• Improvements to SIM hot-swap detection and handling
• Fix re-opening MBIM ports if modem drops off the bus while being probed
• Don't die if ICCID is missing from the Subscriber Ready response
• Detect changes in carrier lock state
• Default to IPV4V6 dual-stack when IP type is unspecified
• Fix handling IP types from Provisioned Context Element V2 objects
• Don't ignore 'none' type profiles
• Use MBIMEx to list profiles if we can
• Detect SLAAC configuration updates to handle IPv6 connectivity on modems that take longer to run SLAAC themselves
• Add support for MS extensions device reset
• Update all attach settings (home/partner/non-partner) to the same values so that roaming attach uses same settings as home
• Read operator name from SIM EF files rather than from the network
• Correctly handle custom data classes, fixing registration with some 5G-capable modems that do not support later MS Basic Connect extensions

QMI:

• Report specific IP version disallowed rather than just "IP version mismatch" errors
• Fix re-opening QMI ports if modem drops off the bus while being probed
• Add support for preallocated multiplexed links
• Don't prematurely finish power operations until the modem is really done
• Change operator description priority to prefer long name, short name, then service name. This better matches expected IoT SIM behavior.
• Implement Cell Info for GSM
• Reload operator description on network changes
• Map DUN APN type to MM Tethering type
• Fix enabling Serving System indications if the modem doesn't support System Info
• Implement getting/setting UE mode
• Don't assert and die if modem reports no supported modes, like before FCC unlock occurs

Plugins:

• Allow plugins to match on PCI subsystem device ID property
• quectel: added support for RM520N; support AT-based location and SIM hot- swap for MBIM devices; support AT-over-MBIM; support DFOTA firmware update method; support power operations for AT-based devices; add FCC unlock for more devices; DTMF notification support;
• mtk-legacy: renamed from 'mtk'; add support for MT6229 (eg CAT B100)
• mtk: new plugin with MBIM support for t7xx devices (eg FM350, L850, etc)
• fibocom: add support for firmware update settings; add support for FM135 devices
• cinterion: switch primary and secondary port for PLS8; use PPP on secondary port; default to no authentication with no user/password; fix runtime PDP context reading; increase COPS timeout; implement FDL update method; implement loading current modes
• mbm: keep GPS interface running over reinitialization if needed
• huawei: support loading/setting of LTE bands; add support for IPv6
• simtech: add support for A760x devices; fix USB audio handling
• rolling: new plugin with support for Rolling Wireless (ex-Fibocom) devices
• netprisma: new plugin with support for Netprisma (ex-Quectel) devices
• cellient: new plugin for Cellient devices
• telit: fix loop enabling events on secondary ports
