Re: [MM] [PATCH] iface-modem-3gpp: handle non-deferrable registration state updates

[Ben Chan <benchan chromium org>]

Hi Aleksander / Dan,

Would a transition from 'registered' to 'idle'/'searching' considered a 'service' loss from the connection manager's perspective (e.g. the service disappears and then reappears in connection manager)?  In practice,  a +CEREG change may not necessarily mean that the service disappears. But I guess such a glitch can be smoothed out in the connection manager layer instead of the modem manager layer. I'm happy to update the logic as suggested if that's the expected behavior.

Thanks,

Ben

I think that we should *not* defer the registration state update unless
the modem was connected. This is, if the modem goes from registered to
idle or searching, that update must be published in the interface right
away. What do you think? Are you able to update the logic like that?
