[Touch-packages] [Bug 1965901] Re: SRU the new 1.18 serie to focal for hwe
It turns out that this actually regressed some qualcomm modems because modem-manager started to use some special netlink sockets that were not enabled in the 5.4 kernel. To have that we need (see LP: #1998194): CONFIG_QRTR=m CONFIG_QRTR_SMD=m CONFIG_QRTR_TUN=m CONFIG_QRTR_MHI=m in the 5.4 kernel. However, this might not be easy according to some discussion I had. Would it be possible to revisit this backport? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to modemmanager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1965901 Title: SRU the new 1.18 serie to focal for hwe Status in libmbim package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in libqmi package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in modemmanager package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in libmbim source package in Focal: Fix Released Status in libqmi source package in Focal: Fix Released Status in modemmanager source package in Focal: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] We want to update to the newer serie for better hardware support (support for Quectel EM120R-GL and EM160R-GL) [Test Plan] * install modemmanager, libmbim, and libqmi from -proposed * reboot and try WWAN function to see if any regression there. * perform general dogfooding of its reverse dependencies (network- manager, gnome-control-center etc.) [Where problems could occur] The new version no longer automatically performs the FCC unlock procedure by default, see details on https://modemmanager.org/docs/modemmanager/fcc-unlock/ It means some modem will stop working out of the box.

Hello Sebastien, or anyone else affected, Accepted libmbim into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libmbim/1.26.2-1~ubuntu20.04.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository. Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed- focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification- failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. ** Changed in: libmbim (Ubuntu Focal) Status: New => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-focal ** Changed in: libqmi (Ubuntu Focal) Status: New => Fix Committed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to modemmanager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1965901 Title: SRU the new 1.18 serie to focal for hwe Status in libmbim package in Ubuntu: New Status in libqmi package in Ubuntu: New Status in modemmanager package in Ubuntu: New Status in libmbim source package in Focal: Fix Committed Status in libqmi source package in Focal: Fix Committed Status in modemmanager source package in Focal: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] We want to update to the newer serie for better hardware support (support for Quectel EM120R-GL and EM160R-GL) [Test Plan] * install modemmanager, libmbim, and libqmi from -proposed * reboot and try WWAN function to see if any regression there. * perform general dogfooding of its reverse dependencies (network- manager, gnome-control-center etc.) [Where problems could occur] The new version no longer automatically performs the FCC unlock procedure by default, see details on https://modemmanager.org/docs/modemmanager/fcc-unlock/ It means some modem will stop working out of the box.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1965901] Re: SRU the new 1.18 serie to focal for hwe
So this is a bit of a pickle this SRU. Basically we need to decide on one of the two worlds: staying compliant with what the manufacturers demand (not performing the FCC unlock by default) and not breaking users (as previously modemmanager was automatically performing the unlock). We would probably need to consult someone regarding the legal aspect of automatically unlocking the devices - so it's something we really should do. Since by default we should really REALLY make sure that we're not breaking existing users, but then again - we shouldn't be doing things that are 'not okay' by our main packages as well. However, in the meantime, I'll review the SRU as-is, without the auto- unlocking, consider pulling it into focal-proposed and then set a block- proposed tag until we know for sure which way to go. We can always patch the package with the unlocks and re-upload, if needed. A bit of additional data regarding the regression potential of this change, maybe even some pros of just going with 1.118 as-is: * From what I know, some of the locked modems (the Lenovo-shipped ones I think?) are already broken by a firmware upgrade right now. * Users upgrading to the next LTS (22.04), once upgrades are enabled, will encounter this issue anyway, having to manually perform the unlock. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to modemmanager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1965901 Title: SRU the new 1.18 serie to focal for hwe Status in libmbim package in Ubuntu: New Status in libqmi package in Ubuntu: New Status in modemmanager package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: [Impact] We want to update to the newer serie for better hardware support (support for Quectel EM120R-GL and EM160R-GL) [Test Plan] * install modemmanager, libmbim, and libqmi from -proposed * reboot and try WWAN function to see if any regression there. * perform general dogfooding of its reverse dependencies (network- manager, gnome-control-center etc.) [Where problems could occur] The new version no longer automatically performs the FCC unlock procedure by default, see details on https://modemmanager.org/docs/modemmanager/fcc-unlock/ It means some modem will stop working out of the box.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1965901] Re: SRU the new 1.18 serie to focal for hwe
Putting a bit more thought into this, I'm a bit concerned by regressing user. The plus side, as per our face-to-face discussion, there are not many modem users, but still... maybe I'd like to investigate some possibilities. Reading up on the modemmanager page gave me some necessary context here. I agree with the upstream decision not to unlock modems automatically and their recommendation for distributions not doing it automatically as well. That being said, 20.04 has been released with auto-unlocking, so this feels like going against our stability principles in Ubuntu. Some question here regarding this: does the new modemmanager add some new FCC locked modems in 1.18 in comparison to 1.16? Since one fair way to go forward in my eyes (at least right now) would be to keep auto-unlocking the previously supported modems but require manual unlocks of the new ones. Are there any new ones? Or does this basically only relate and lock down those that were previously available? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to modemmanager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1965901 Title: SRU the new 1.18 serie to focal for hwe Status in libmbim package in Ubuntu: New Status in libqmi package in Ubuntu: New Status in modemmanager package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: [Impact] We want to update to the newer serie for better hardware support (support for Quectel EM120R-GL and EM160R-GL) [Test Plan] * install modemmanager, libmbim, and libqmi from -proposed * reboot and try WWAN function to see if any regression there. * perform general dogfooding of its reverse dependencies (network- manager, gnome-control-center etc.) [Where problems could occur] The new version no longer automatically performs the FCC unlock procedure by default, see details on https://modemmanager.org/docs/modemmanager/fcc-unlock/ It means some modem will stop working out of the box.
