UFOMA(4) FreeBSD Kernel Interfaces Manual UFOMA(4)
NAME
ufoma - USB mobile phone support
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your
kernel configuration file:
device usb
device ucom
device ufoma
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the
following line in loader.conf(5):
ufoma_load="YES"
DESCRIPTION
The ufoma driver provides support for USB mobile phone terminals in the
subset of the Mobile Computing Promotion Consortium USB Implementation
Guideline, which is adopted by FOMA, the NTT DoCoMo 3G system, terminal.
These are partly like CDC ACM model based modems, which are supported by
umodem(4), but the ufoma driver recognizes a specific USB descriptor that
describes its role and interface structure, and it will negotiate its
role when the device is open. They support a regular AT command set and
the commands can either be multiplexed with the data stream or handled
through separate pipes. In the latter case the AT commands have to be
given on a device separate from the data device.
The device is accessed through the ucom(4) driver which makes it behave
like a tty(4).
SYSCTLS
These devices often have a few interface sets and these interfaces have
their role, sometimes multiplexed. These roles are identified with the
following sysctl MIBs:
dev.ucom.%d.supportmode
The modes which are supported by the interface.
dev.ucom.%d.currentmode
Current mode of the interface.
dev.ucom.%d.openmode
Mode to transit when the device is open next.
The modes are as follows:
modem Accepts AT commands and go and pass packet communication data.
handsfree
Accepts AT commands but it does not pass data.
obex Accepts OBEX frame which is used to exchange telephone book, etc.
vendor1, vendor2
Vendor specific data may be passed.
deactivated
HARDWARE

HISTORY
The ufoma driver appeared in FreeBSD 7.0, partly derived from the
umodem(4) code.
BUGS
Interfaces with multiplexed commands and data and interfaces with
commands only are supported.
