These days more and more devices are showing up that support a number of different access technology families in the same hardware, like Qualcomm Gobi (CDMA and GSM), Pantech UM190 (CDMA and GSM), Pantech UML290 (CDMA and LTE), LG VL600 (CDMA and LTE), Sierra 320U (GSM and LTE), etc. The previous scheme of having device classes based on access technology family simply cannot handle this hardware and attempting to add LTE to both the CDMA and GSM device classes would result in a bunch of code duplication that we don't want. There's a better way... Instead, combine both CDMA and GSM device classes into a generic "Modem" device class that provides capabilities indicating what access technology families a modem supports, and what families it supports immediately without a firmware reload. (Gobi devices for example require a firmware reload before they can switch between GSM and CDMA). This provides the necessary flexibility to the client and allows us to keep the API stable when the same consolidation change is made in ModemManager. The current code doesn't yet allow multi-mode operation internally, but the API is now what we want it to be and won't need to be changed. |
