Dear Osmocom community, It's my pleasure to announce the next OsmoDevCall at April 23, 2021 at 20:00 CEST at https://meeting4.franken.de/b/har-xbc-bsx-wvs This meeting will have the following schedule: 20:00 meet + greet 20:15 presentation by horiz0n: "YIG & YANG (Yet ANother yiG driver)" 21:00 USSE: unstructured supplementary social event [*] 22:00 close of call Presentation Abstract: This talk will briefly introduce the working principles of YIG (Yttrium Iron Garnet) microwave circuits, their applications and finally conclude with a presentation of a recently developed driver circuit. Attendance is free of charge and open to anyone with an interest in Osmocom. More information about OsmoDevCall, including the schedule for further upcoming events can be found at https://osmocom.org/projects/osmo-dev-con/wiki/OsmoDevCall Looking forward to meeting you on Friday. Best regards, Harald [*] this is how we started to call the "unstructured" part of osmocom developer conferences in the past, basically where anyone can talk about anything, no formal schedule or structure. -- - Harald Welte <laforge(a)osmocom.org> http://laforge.gnumonks.org/ ============================================================================ "Privacy in residential applications is a desirable marketing option."

Dear Osmocom community, It's my pleasure to announce the next OsmoDevCall at April 9, 2021 at 20:00 CET at https://meeting4.franken.de/b/har-xbc-bsx-wvs This meeting will have the following schedule: 20:00 meet + greet 20:15 presentation: pySim-shell - the next generation of pySim 21:00 USSE: unstructured supplementary social event [*] 22:00 close of call Presentation Abstract: For more than a decade, pySim-prog has been the tool to configure/program SIM cards in research/lab/private cellular networks. Originally designed for very simplistic GSM-only SIM Cards, it was extended again and again to cover more use cases and parameters. There is a limit as to how far one can go with stuffing everything into command line arguments. In 2021, pySim-shell was created as the next generation tool. It features interactive navigation around the file system, editing capabilities, backup and restore of all [known] files, ...

WIP / RFC for pysim 'next generation;' aka pysim-shell
by Harald Welte 07 Apr '21

Dear Osmocom community, pySim-prog was nice when there were only 5 parameters on a SIM that we could program, and where the use case was pretty limited. Today, we have SIM/USIM/ISIM cards with hundreds of files and even more parameters to program. We cannot add a command line argument for each file to pySim-prog. Instead, this introduces an interactive command-line shell / REPL, in which one can navigate the file system of the card, read and update files both in raw format and in decoded/parsed format. The idea is primarily inspired by Henryk Ploetz' venerable cyberflex-shell, but implemented on a more modern basis using the cmd2 python module. You can see the very first prototype in the laforge/shell branch of pysim.git You can do things with it like this: ===> Start-up and authenticate with adm pin ---------------------------------------------------------------------- $ ./pysim-shell.py -p 0 Using PC/SC reader interface Autodetected card type: sysmoISIM-SJA2 AIDs on card: ['a0000000871002ffffffff8907090000', 'a0000000871004ffffffff8907090000'] Welcome to pySim-shell! pySIM-shell (3f00)> verify_adm 92990895 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ===> interactive help ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pySIM-shell (3f00)> help Documented commands (use 'help -v' for verbose/'help <topic>' for details): ISO7816 Commands ================ read_binary select_adf select_file update_binary update_record verify_chv pySim Commands ============== intro verify_adm USIM Commands ============= read_ehplmn ust_service_activate ust_service_deactivate pySim-shell built-in commands ============================= alias help macro quit run_script shell edit history py run_pyscript set shortcuts ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ===> more interactive help ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pySIM-shell (3f00)> help read_binary usage: read_binary [-h] [--file-id FILE_ID] [--offset OFFSET] [--length LENGTH] [--record-nr RECORD_NR] Read binary data from a transparent EF optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit --file-id FILE_ID File ID --offset OFFSET Byte offset for start of read --length LENGTH Number of bytes to read --record-nr RECORD_NR Number of record to read ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ===> navigating the FS and reading files ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pySIM-shell (3f00)> select_file 7f20 ['622c8202782183027f20a509800171830400018d088a01058b032f0601c60f90017083010183018183010a83010b'] pySIM-shell (3f00/7f20)> read_binary --file-id 6f07 089910070000400310 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ===> interaction with local filesystem, i.e. I/O redirect + shell commands ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pySIM-shell (3f00)> select_adf a0000000871002 pySIM-shell (a0000000871002)> select_file 5f3b pySIM-shell (a0000000871002/5f3b)> read_binary --file-id 4f20 > /tmp/f pySIM-shell (a0000000871002/5f3b)> !cat /tmp/f ffffffffffffffff07 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ===> piping output through shell tools like grep ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pySIM-shell (3f00)> read_ust | grep 86 Service 86 - Allowed CSG Lists and corresponding indications ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ===> enabling/disabling services ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pySIM-shell (3f00/7f20)> ust_service_activate 123 pySIM-shell (3f00/7f20)> ust_service_deactivate 123 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- It's a very first prototype, but it is really promising. The major tasks I see to make this go anywhere is: * have "File" class with encoder/decoder methods, which are registered automatically with a 'file system' layer that knows about the DF/ADF hierarchy ** this allows us to have a "read-decoded" command, which will call the decode method of the file, automatically resolved by the selected FID/path * automatic mapping of file-name -> FID and FID -> file name ** when printing (like in the path), use the human-readable names ** allow users to use human-readable names in SELECT * decode + display the TLVs / FCPs after a SELECT (like cyberflex-shell * ability to enable/disable APDU trace * dynamically register/deregster commands based on the path, i.e. offer USIM commands only when in ADF_USIM We have quite a bit of that infrastructure in the c-language libosmosim, (part of libosmocore.git), but unfortunately not in python :/ Let me know if anyone is interested in joining this effort.
