I don't think there is any SIM hotswap support for QMI modems yet, if I'm not mistaken. Is AT!UIMS=n a Sierra-specific command? What does "AT!UIMS=?" return? We do have some support for MBIM modems, though, and we can detect the SIM going away and a new SIM coming back, and in that case the effect will be: * The modem and sim objects go away. * A new modem with a new sim object appears. This is, for SIM hotswap events, not only the SIM object is re-created, the whole modem object is recreated (just the MM object, no modem reset involved!). While the SIM hotswap support we currently have for different modem types is defined to detect e.g. the user extracting the SIM and inserting it again, the same logic can be used to detect SIM slot selection changes like the one you're testing. But we don't have any API in MM to trigger the SIM slot selection right now (we could add new APIs) -- Aleksander https://aleksander.es _______________________________________________ ModemManager-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/modemmanager-devel
