h2. Analysis of Replicant 9 Linux 5.2 modem branch
These were cleaned up and ported from forkbomb's code:
<pre>
b4c2df98ed6f misc: xmm6262: Add Samsung IPC USB modem firmware download module
77b55273bd6e net: usb: add Samsung IPC-over-HSIC driver
f9ae2d1697fa net: add Samsung IPC interface driver
7806adad4507 HACK: usb: host: ehci-exynos: add ehci_power sysfs node
82c317b0da5e HACK: add modem power on/off driver
28e5b460f920 HACK: usb: ehci_exynos: enable OHCI_SUSP_LEGACY
e7c122b770c1 ARM: dts: EXYNOS: add 3G modem nodes to midas boards
c3201527f7ea ARM: dts: split Exynos 4412 N710x boards up
5b55f03cda8c ARM: dts: EXYNOS: add Samsung IPC modem support
eca381876d5e ARM: dts: EXYNOS: enable HSIC0 on midas boards
7ec9129e3221 replicant_*_defconfig: extend cmdline to get IMSI and other information
54c196380507 replicant_*_defconfig: Add modem support
[...]
0ecfebd2b524 Linux 5.2
</pre>
If we look at the drivers only (not the dts or config changes, or hacks in pre-existing code, we are left with):
<pre>
b4c2df98ed6f misc: xmm6262: Add Samsung IPC USB modem firmware download module
77b55273bd6e net: usb: add Samsung IPC-over-HSIC driver
f9ae2d1697fa net: add Samsung IPC interface driver
82c317b0da5e HACK: add modem power on/off driver
</pre>
We'd also need to find a way to fix these:
<pre>
7806adad4507 HACK: usb: host: ehci-exynos: add ehci_power sysfs node
28e5b460f920 HACK: usb: ehci_exynos: enable OHCI_SUSP_LEGACY
</pre>
So we'd probably need to have something like that instead:
1. A driver for the SIPC (Samsung IPC) SPIC protocol (f9ae2d1697fa net: add Samsung IPC interface driver)
2. A driver for the SIPC (Samsung IPC) SPIC transport on top of HSIC and the protocol (77b55273bd6e net: usb: add Samsung IPC-over-HSIC driver).
3. A modem driver with:
** The GPIO handling like drivers/hsi/clients/nokia-modem.c (some GPIOs probably cannot be handled in userspace like gpio_pda_active (see [[XMMBoot#GPIOs-usage]] for more details) (82c317b0da5e HACK: add modem power on/off driver)
** The firmware loading code (b4c2df98ed6f misc: xmm6262: Add Samsung IPC USB modem firmware download module)
