MBIM devices can support up to 256 generic streams called Device Service Streams (DSS). The MBIM spec says The format of the Device Service Stream payload depends on the device service (as identified by the corresponding UUID) that is used when opening the data stream. Example use cases are serial AT command interfaces and NMEA data streams. We cannot make any assumptions about these device services. Adding support for Device Service Stream by extending the MBIM session to VLAN mapping scheme, allocating VLAN IDs 256 to 511 for DSS, using the DSS SessionID as the lower 8bit of the VLAN ID. Using a netdev for DSS keeps the device framing intact and allows userspace to do whatever it want with the streams. For example, exporting an AT command interface using DSS session #0 to a PTY for use with a terminal application like minicom: vconfig add wwan0 256 ip link set dev wwan0 up ip link set dev wwan0.256 up socat INTERFACE:wwan0.256,type=2 PTY:,echo=0,link=/tmp/modem Device configuration must be done using MBIM control commands over the /dev/cdc-wdmx device. The userspace management application should coordinate host VLAN configuration and the device MBIM configuration using the device capabilities to find out if it needs to set up PTY mappings etc. Signed-off-by: NBjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.
