在ARM-linux上实现4G模块PPP拨号上网

在ARM平台上实现4G模块的PPP拨号上网，参考网上的资料和自己的理解，从一无所知到开发完成花了一周多。最后看到ARM板ping通www.baidu.com时甚是高兴，现将此过程整理如下。当然，除此之外要做的工作还有很多。
4G模块使用的SIMTECH 的SIM7100C，SIM7100C带有UART和USB接口，在考虑速度上我们使用USB接口和ARM进行通信。所以向linux内核添加3G模块的驱动(USB转串口驱动)和PPP协议的支持，然后编译内核并下载到开发板。
1. 编译内核
◇ 大容量存储驱动
> Device Drivers > USB support
make ARCH=armmenuconfig配置USB驱动：
<*>USB Mass Storage support
[*]USB Mass Storage verbose debug
<*>Realtek Card Reader support
[*]Realtek Card Reader autosuspend support
<*>Datafab Compact Flash Reader support
◇ USB驱动
> Device Drivers > USB support
<*>Inventra Highspeed Dual Role Controller (TI, ADI, ...)
MUSB Mode Selection (Dual Role mode)--->
<*>Platform Glue Layer (TIDSPS platforms)--->
MUSB DMA mode (Disable DMA (always use PIO))--->
<*>USB Serial Converter support--->
[*]USBGeneric Serial Driver
<*>USBdriver for GSM and CDMA modems
◇ PPP驱动
> Device Drivers > Network device support
<*>PPP (point-to-point protocol) support
<*>PPP BSD-Compress compression
<*>PPP Deflate compression
[*]PPP filtering
<*>PPP MPPE compression (encryption)
[*]PPP multilink support
<*>PPP over Ethernet
<*>PPP support for async serial ports
<*>PPP support for sync tty ports
<*>SLIP (serial line) support
[*]CSLIP compressed headers

2. 交叉编译libusb
下载usblib库和libusb-compat
https://sourceforge.net/projects/libusb/files/
root@zhaoxc-VBox:/opt/usb-tools/libusb-1.0.20# mkdir install
configure: error: "udev support requested but libudev not installed"(解决：添加--disable-udev)
root@zhaoxc-VBox:/opt/usb-tools/libusb-1.0.20# ./configure --host=arm-none-linux-gnueabi --prefix=/opt/usb-tools/libusb-1.0.20/install --disable-udev
root@zhaoxc-VBox:/opt/usb-tools/libusb-1.0.20# make
root@zhaoxc-VBox:/opt/usb-tools/libusb-1.0.20# make install

添加环境变量 http://www.linuxidc.com/Linux/2011-03/33432.htm（PKG_CONFIG_PATH设置）
root@zhaoxc-VBox:/opt/usb-tools/libusb-1.0.20# export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/usb-tools/libusb-1.0.20/install/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
root@zhaoxc-VBox:/opt/usb-tools/libusb-1.0.20# echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH

编译libusb-compat：
root@zhaoxc-VBox:/opt/usb-tools/libusb-compat-0.1.5# ./configure --host=arm-none-linux-gnueabi --prefix=/opt/usb-tools/libusb-compat-0.1.5/install
root@zhaoxc-VBox:/opt/usb-tools/libusb-compat-0.1.5# make
root@zhaoxc-VBox:/opt/usb-tools/libusb-compat-0.1.5# make install

将生成的libusb-1.0.20和libusb-compat-0.1.5下的库文件复制到ARM板上的linux的/lib下面即可。

3. 交叉编译4G模块驱动
交叉编译GobiSerial.c(ARCH=arm CC=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc)，得到GobiSerial.ko。复制到ARM板安装驱动
#insmod GobiSerial.ko

4. 查看驱动运行状况
插上4G模块，虚拟出6个ttyUSB，它们分别是：
root@am335x-evm:/# ls /dev/ttyUSB*
/dev/ttyUSB0/dev/ttyUSB1/dev/ttyUSB2/dev/ttyUSB3/dev/ttyUSB4/dev/ttyUSB5
1) /dev/ttyUSB0-diag port for output developing messages
2) /dev/ttyUSB1- NMEA port for GPS NMEA data output
3) /dev/ttyUSB2-AT port for AT commands
4) /dev/ttyUSB3-Modem port for ppp-dial
5) /dev/ttyUSB4-audio port
6) /dev/ttyUSB5-Virtual Net card

插上U盘，提示设备运行：
[75097.986054] usb 2-1: New USB device found, idVendor=058f, idProduct=6387
[75097.993167] usb 2-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
[75098.000689] usb 2-1: Product: Mass Storage
[75098.004995] usb 2-1: Manufacturer: Generic
[75098.009342] usb 2-1: SerialNumber: AC3DF2EE
[75098.024341] usb-storage 2-1:1.0: USB Mass Storage device detected
[75098.049922] scsi0 : usb-storage 2-1:1.0
lsusb命令查看结果：
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 1e0e:9001
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 058f:6387
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002

5. 交叉编译PPP

6. 拨号脚本设置

ABORT "DELAYED"

#disconnect /bin/chat -v -f /etc/ppp/gprs-disconnect-chat

6. 拨号
root@am335x-evm: pppd call gprsdial

6. 测试
拨号之后进行测试，发现可以ping通ip但是无法ping通域名。这需要设置/etc/resolv.conf来添加DNS解析服务器的地址
文件/etc/resolv.conf配置DNS客户，它包含了主机的域名搜索顺序和DNS服务器的地址，每一行应包含一个关键字和一个或多个的由空格隔开的参数。下面是一个例子文件：
domain test.com
search www.test.com test.com
nameserver 202.96.128.86
nameserver 202.96.128.166
nameserver#定义DNS服务器的IP地址
domain#定义本地域名
search#定义域名的搜索列表
sortlist#对返回的域名进行排序
主要是nameserver关键字，如果没指定nameserver就找不到DNS服务器，其它关键字是可选的。
我这里只设置了两个DNS，如下：
ameserver 114.114.114.114
nameserver 8.8.8.8
