Hi Suraj,


I would really appreciate if you can give me any idea about working
around the above mentioned issues.

if we talk about the SAP server role found in a mobile phone, then that
support clearly needs to interact with the telephony stack. Since when
SAP is active the telephony stack needs to be suspended and all SIM
transaction being forwarded.

Currently I would be thinking that the SAP implementation should be done
inside oFono actually. Since then you have direct access to the
hardware. The D-Bus approach just doesn't sound correct to me. I could
be of course wrong, but I can't wrap my mind around on how you can make
this work.

Even with file descriptor passing this doesn't look like the right
approach. If we need a hardware abstraction than we either use oFono or
we have to create some SAP hardware access abstraction.

The advantage I thought d-bus has would be the generic interface it could provide. But, if we have a system with direct access to the Sim access hardware, D-bus could possibly become a bottleneck.

I would really appreciate if others who have worked with Sim Access and OFono can give their comments.

Also, please share some information on regarding the SIM reader implementation in linux based systems.


The SAP client role found a carkit is obviously a different story.

Marcel
