Fuchsia Telephony

The Fuchsia Telephony stack currently aims to provide a fast, robust, and reliable
data connection over modern cellular protocols.

Source code:

Supported Hardware:

  • Sierra Wireless EM7565

Acronyms:

  • FRIL - Fuchsia Radio Interface Layer
  • VFS - Virtual File System

Getting Started

Setup

Telephony is not included in the core fuchsia bringup currently. You can include the bundle like in the
example below:

$ fx set2 core.x64 --with //src/connectivity/telephony/

API Examples

TODO(bwb): write an example app

Tools

See the telephony/tools directory for the source code.

ril-ctl

The ril-ctl package is used for interacting with devices that expose the FRIL interface.
Interactive CLIs are currently incompatible with the standard run command, so these are launched
through /bin

connection owned by telephony service:

$ ril-ctl

exclusive connection to device:

$ ril-ctl -d /dev/class/qmi-transport/000

Running Tests

Host Side Tests

A large chunk of the logic of interacting with QMI based modems is generated at compile time.
Tests for this live in qmigen_unittests_lib_test. You can run them on your host system with:

$ fx run-host-tests qmigen_unittests_lib_test

Unit Tets

TODO(bwb): Add name of tests when they land

Architecture

QMI-based

Modem Manager watches the VFS for the qmi-usb-transport device to bind against any of the
usb devices it supports. Modem manager uses an IOCTL call (TODO: transition to FIDL) to acquire
a transport channel to the driver. It then starts a service that provides the FRIL, ril-qmi. ril-qmi
proxies/translates the FIDL messages spoken to the RadioInterfaceLayer interface to vendor specific calls.

ril-ctl tool is also able to initialize and connect ril-qmi to a specified device. It will also eventually
have the ability to interact with an existing ril-qmi through a management interface on the Modem Manager.
