Hello Jerry,

this version looks a way better, still there is one minor thing to 
improve. See below.

Manivannan, Loic, could you advice is it Ok to export that SAHARA port 
as is?

I'm against this.

There is an in-kernel Sahara implementation, which is going to be used 
by QDU100.  If WWAN is going to own the "SAHARA" MHI channel name, then 
no one else can use it which will conflict with QDU100.

I expect the in-kernel implementation can be leveraged for this.

Process note: in the next submissions please include a short changelog
vs the previous revisions after the SoB tag and a '---' separator.

Additionally:

## Form letter - net-next-closed

The merge window for v6.13 has begun and net-next is closed for new
drivers, features, code refactoring and optimizations. We are currently
accepting bug fixes only.

Please repost when net-next reopens after Dec 2nd.

RFC patches sent for review only are welcome at any time.

Fair enough, actually the same change has already been discussed two
years ago, and we agreed that it should not be exposed as a WWAN
control port:

Thank you for reminding us about that conversation. There you have 
shared a good thought, that the WWAN framework suppose to export mostly 
management ports. And all other debug/dump/reflash features should be 
implemented using corresponding kernel APIs.

Last year, more port types were merged. As part of the T7xx driver 
development. Specifically it were Fastboot, ADB, and MIPC. See:
- 495e7c8e9601 wwan: core: Add WWAN ADB and MIPC port type
- e3caf184107a wwan: core: Add WWAN fastboot port type

If ADB somehow could be considered a management interface. MIPC and 
Fastboot are firmware management interfaces. And I recall a discussion 
regarding the Fastboot implementation and there was a NACK from someone 
from devlink subsystem.

Personally, I prefer the firmware management/debugging operations being 
implemented using a generic kernel API like it was done in IOSM. And we 
are suggesting contributors to use the existing kernel API instead of 
exposing RAW interfaces. On another hand, devlink developers are not 
happy to see this kind of devlink usage.

Loic, do you have any idea how to solve this puzzle? And how do you 
think, shall we do something regarding the already introduced 
Fastboot/ADB/MIPC port types?

Make sense. Can you share a link to this in-kernel implementation? I've 
searched through the code and found nothing similar. Is it merged or has 
it a different name?

I was searching for SAHARA and for sahara in the log, however it was 
introduced as Sahara. Next time will use case insensitive search :) 
Thank you for the clue.
