in kernel documentation I read that rmnet user space configuration is
done through librmnetctl available at

https://source.codeaurora.org/quic/la/platform/vendor/qcom-opensource
/dataservices/tree/rmnetctl

However it seems to me that this is a bit outdated (e.g. it does not
properly build since it is looking for kernel header
linux/rmnet_data.h that, as far as I understand, is no more present).

Is there available a more recent version of the tool?

Hi Daniele

The attached patch should have an updated version of the tool.
Usage -

rmnetcli -n newlink wwan0 rmnet0 1 1
where wwan0 is the physical device
rmnet0 is the virtual device to be created
1 is the mux id
the other 1 is the flag to configure DL de-aggregation by default

To delete a device -

ip link delete rmnet0


I'd expect that somebody (Subash?) would add support for the
rmnet/qmimux options to iproute2 via 'ip link' like exists for most
other device types.

Hi Dan

Yes, I can do that and update the documentation to point to using iproute2.
