isdn/gigaset: remove EXPERIMENTAL tag from GIGASET_CAPI
The CAPI variant of the Gigaset drivers can, in combination with capidrv, now fully replace the legacy ISDN4Linux variant. All reported problems have been fixed. So remove the EXPERIMENTAL tag from the Kconfig option selecting it, and adapt the documentation accordingly to encourage users to switch to it. Impact: documentation/status update, no functional change Signed-off-by: Tilman Schmidt <tilman@imap.cc> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

1.2. Software
|
||||
--------
|
||||
The driver works with ISDN4linux and so can be used with any software
|
||||
which is able to use ISDN4linux for ISDN connections (voice or data).
|
||||
Experimental Kernel CAPI support is available as a compilation option.
|
||||
The driver works with the Kernel CAPI subsystem as well as the old
|
||||
ISDN4Linux subsystem, so it can be used with any software which is able
|
||||
to use CAPI 2.0 or ISDN4Linux for ISDN connections (voice or data).

||||

2.3. ISDN4linux
|
||||
----------
|
||||
This is the "normal" mode of operation. After loading the module you can
|
||||
set up the ISDN system just as you'd do with any ISDN card supported by
|

the ISDN4Linux subsystem. Most distributions provide some configuration

utility. If not, you can use some HOWTOs like

|

2.4. CAPI
|
||||
2.3. CAPI
|
||||
----
|
||||
If the driver is compiled with CAPI support (kernel configuration option
|
||||
GIGASET_CAPI, experimental) it can also be used with CAPI 2.0 kernel and
|
||||
user space applications. For user space access, the module capi.ko must
|
||||
be loaded. The capiinit command (included in the capi4k-utils package)
|
||||
does this for you.
|
||||
GIGASET_CAPI) the devices will show up as CAPI controllers as soon as the
|
||||
corresponding driver module is loaded, and can then be used with CAPI 2.0
|
||||
kernel and user space applications. For user space access, the module
|
||||
capi.ko must be loaded.
|
||||
|
||||
The CAPI variant of the driver supports legacy ISDN4Linux applications
|
||||
via the capidrv compatibility driver. The kernel module capidrv.ko must
|
||||
be loaded explicitly with the command
|
||||
Legacy ISDN4Linux applications are supported via the capidrv
|
||||
compatibility driver. The kernel module capidrv.ko must be loaded
|
||||
explicitly with the command
|
||||
modprobe capidrv
|
||||
if needed, and cannot be unloaded again without unloading the driver
|
||||
first. (These are limitations of capidrv.)
|
||||
|
||||
The note about unimodem mode in the preceding section applies here, too.
|
||||
Most distributions handle loading and unloading of the various CAPI
|
||||
modules automatically via the command capiinit(1) from the capi4k-utils
|
||||
package or a similar mechanism. Note that capiinit(1) cannot unload the
|
||||
Gigaset drivers because it doesn't support more than one module per
|
||||
driver.
|
||||
|
||||
2.4. ISDN4Linux
|
||||
----------
|
||||
If the driver is compiled without CAPI support (native ISDN4Linux
|
||||
variant), it registers the device with the legacy ISDN4Linux subsystem
|
||||
after loading the module. It can then be used with ISDN4Linux
|
||||
applications only. Most distributions provide some configuration utility
|
||||
for setting up that subsystem. Otherwise you can use some HOWTOs like
|
||||
http://www.linuxhaven.de/dlhp/HOWTO/DE-ISDN-HOWTO-5.html
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2.5. Unimodem mode
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
This is needed for some devices [e.g. SX100] as they have problems with
|
||||
the "normal" commands.
|
||||
|
||||
If you have installed the command line tool gigacontr, you can enter
|
||||
unimodem mode using
|
||||
gigacontr --mode unimodem
|
||||
You can switch back using
|
||||
gigacontr --mode isdn
|
||||
|
||||
You can also put the driver directly into Unimodem mode when it's loaded,
|
||||
by passing the module parameter startmode=0 to the hardware specific
|
||||
module, e.g.
|
||||
modprobe usb_gigaset startmode=0
|
||||
or by adding a line like
|
||||
options usb_gigaset startmode=0
|
||||
to an appropriate module configuration file, like /etc/modprobe.d/gigaset
|
||||
or /etc/modprobe.conf.local.
|
||||
|
||||
In this mode the device works like a modem connected to a serial port
|
||||
(the /dev/ttyGU0, ... mentioned above) which understands the commands
|
||||
|
||||
ATZ init, reset
|

=> OK or ERROR
