* Phonet: kill the ST-Ericsson pipe controller KconfigRémi Denis-Courmont2011-03-091-13/+0
| | | | | | | | | | This is now a run-time choice so that a single kernel can support both old and new generation ISI modems. Support for manually enabling the pipe flow is removed as it did not work properly, does not fit well with the socket API, and I am not aware of any use at the moment.

* Phonet: support active connection without pipe controller on modemRémi Denis-Courmont2011-03-091-29/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This provides support for newer ISI modems with no need for the earlier experimental compile-time alternative choice. With this, we can now use the same kernel and userspace with both types of modems. This also avoids confusing two different and incompatible state machines, actively connected vs accepted sockets, and adds connection response error handling (processing "SYN/RST" of sorts).

* Phonet: provide pipe socket option to retrieve the pipe identifierRémi Denis-Courmont2011-03-091-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | User-space sometimes needs this information. In particular, the GPRS context or the AT commands pipe setups may use the pipe handle as a reference. This removes the settable pipe handle with CONFIG_PHONET_PIPECTRLR. It did not handle error cases correctly. Furthermore, the kernel *could* implement a smart scheme for allocating handles (if ever needed), but userspace really cannot.

* Phonet: cleanup pipe enable socket optionRémi Denis-Courmont2010-10-081-12/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current code works like this: int garbage, status; socklen_t len = sizeof(status); /* enable pipe */ setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &garbage, sizeof(garbage)); /* disable pipe */ setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_DISABLE, &garbage, sizeof(garbage)); /* get status */ getsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_INQ, &status, &len); ...which does not follow the usual socket option pattern. This patch merges all three "options" into a single gettable&settable option, before Linux 2.6.37 gets out: int status; socklen_t len = sizeof(status); /* enable pipe */ status = 1; setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, sizeof(status)); /* disable pipe */ status = 0; setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, sizeof(status)); /* get status */ getsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, &len); This also fixes the error code from EFAULT to ENOTCONN.
