Description Maciej 2020-11-26 10:00:32 UTC
1. Please describe the problem:

HP lt4132 (rebranded Huawei ME906s-158) doesn't work after update to 5.9 kernels. Observed on 5.9.8, 5.9.9, 5.9.10. Issue also exists on Fedora 32. Modem works on 5.8 kernels.

Similar issue was created for ModemManager: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1901630

2. What is the Version-Release number of the kernel:

5.9.10-200.fc33.x86_64

3. Did it work previously in Fedora? If so, what kernel version did the issue
   *first* appear?  Old kernels are available for download at
   https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=8 :

Yes, it worked with 5.8 series kernels. I've confirmed it by installing and booting 5.8.18-300.fc33 kernel.

4. Can you reproduce this issue? If so, please provide the steps to reproduce
   the issue below:

Use 5.9 series kernels.

5. Does this problem occur with the latest Rawhide kernel? To install the
   Rawhide kernel, run ``sudo dnf install fedora-repos-rawhide`` followed by
   ``sudo dnf update --enablerepo=rawhide kernel``:

Not tested.

6. Are you running any modules that not shipped with directly Fedora's kernel?:

Virtualbox modules.

7. Please attach the kernel logs. You can get the complete kernel log
   for a boot with ``journalctl --no-hostname -k > dmesg.txt``. If the
   issue occurred on a previous boot, use the journalctl ``-b`` flag.

I've added this 3 lines

ACTION=="add|change", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="03f0", ATTR{idProduct}=="a31d", ATTR{bConfigurationValue}!="3", ATTR{bConfigurationValue}:="0"
ACTION=="add|change", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="03f0", ATTR{idProduct}=="a31d", ATTR{bConfigurationValue}!="3", RUN+="/bin/sh -c 'sleep 1; echo 3 > %S%p/bConfigurationValue'"

This message is a reminder that Fedora 33 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 33 on 2021-11-30.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
Fedora 'version' of '33'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 33 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Fedora Linux 37 entered end-of-life (EOL) status on None.

Fedora Linux 37 is no longer maintained, which means that it
will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we
are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora Linux
please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Note that the version
field may be hidden. Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see
the version field.

If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against an
active release.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
