== osmo-remsim-client-st2
The client interfaces with GSM phones / modems via dedicated "Card
Emulation" devices such as the Osmocom SIMtrace2 or sysmocom sysmoQMOD
board + firmware. This hardware implements the ISO7816-3 electrical
interface and protocol handling and passes any TPDU headers received
from the phone/modem to `osmo-remsim-client` for further processing of
the TPDUs associated to the given APDU transfer.
`osmo-remsim-client` connects via a RSPRO control connection to
`osmo-remsim-server` at startup and registers itself. It will receive
configuration data such as the `osmo-remsim-bankd` IP+Port and the
ClientId from `osmo-remsim-server`.
After receiving the configuration, `osmo-remsim-client` will establish a
RSPRO data connection to the `osmo-remsim-bankd` IP:Port.
As the USB interface for remote SIM in simtrace2.git uses one interface
per slot, we can implement the client in blocking mode, i.e. use
blocking I/O on the TCP/RSPRO side. This simplifies the code compared
to a more complex async implementation.

=== Running
osmo-remsim-client-st2 currently has the following command-line options:
==== SYNOPSIS
*osmo-remsim-client-st2* [...]
==== OPTIONS
*-h, --help*::
Print a short help message about the supported options
*-s, --server-host A.B.C.D*::
Specify the remote IP address / hostname of the `osmo-remsim-server` to
which this client shall establish its RSPRO control connection
*-p, --server-port <1-65535>*::
Specify the remote TCP port number of the `osmo-remsim-server` to which
this client shall establish its RSPRO control connection
*-c, --client-id <1-65535>*::
Specify the numeric client identifier of the SIM bank this bankd
instance operates. The tuple of client-id and client-slot must be
unique among all clients connecting to the same `osmo-remsim-server`.
*-n, --client-slot <0-65535>*::
Specify the slot number served within this client. The tuple of
client-id and client-slot must be unique among all clients connecting
to the same `osmo-remsim-server`.
*-i, --gsmtap-ip A.B.C.D*::
Specify the IP address (if any) to which APDU traces are sent in
GSMTAP format (useful for debugging; supported by wireshark).
*-k, --keep-running*::
Specify if the `osmo-remsim-client` should terminate after handling one
session, or whether it should keep running. Fast respawn (i.e. no
--keep-running) is probably the more robust option at this point.
*-V, --usb-vendor*::
Specify the USB Vendor ID of the USB device served by this client,
use e.g. 0x1d50 for SIMtrace2, sysmoQMOD and OWHW.
*-P, --usb-product*::
Specify the USB Product ID of the USB device served by this client,
use e.g. 0x4004 for sysmoQMOD.
*-C, --usb-config*::
Specify the USB Cofiguration number of the USB device served by this
client. Default will use current configuration of the device.
*-I, --usb-interface*::
Specify the USB Interface number (within active configuration) of the
USB device served by this client. Default will use FIXME.
*-S, --usb-altsetting*::
Specify the USB Alternate Setting to be used within the USB Interface
of the USB device served by this client. Default will use FIXME.
*-A, --usb-address <0-255>*::
Specify the USB Address of the USB device served by this client. This
is useful in case multiple identical USB devices are attached to the
same host. However, the address changed at every re-enumeration and
it's therefor recommended to use the USB path (see below).
*-H, --usb-path*::
Specify the USB path of the USB device served by this client. This is
usefule to disambiguate between multiple identical USB devices
attached to the same host. You don't need this if you have only one
SIM emulation device attached to your system.
*-a, --atr HEXSTRING*::
Specify the initial ATR to be communicated to the modem/phone. Can
and will later be overridden by the ATR as specified by
`osmo-remsim-bankd` once a card has been mapped to this client.
*-e, --event-script COMMAND*::
Specify the shell command to be execute when the client wants to call its
helper script
==== Examples
.remsim-server is on 10.2.3.4, sysmoQMOD on usb bus, all 4 modems:
----
osmo-remsim-client-st2 -s 10.2.3.4 -V 1d50 -P 4004 -C 1 -I 0 -H 2-1.1 -c 0 -n 0
osmo-remsim-client-st2 -s 10.2.3.4 -V 1d50 -P 4004 -C 1 -I 1 -H 2-1.1 -c 0 -n 1
osmo-remsim-client-st2 -s 10.2.3.4 -V 1d50 -P 4004 -C 1 -I 0 -H 2-1.4 -c 0 -n 2
osmo-remsim-client-st2 -s 10.2.3.4 -V 1d50 -P 4004 -C 1 -I 1 -H 2-1.4 -c 0 -n 3

=== Logging
`osmo-remsim-client` currently logs to stdout only, and the logging
verbosity is not yet configurable. However, as the libosmocore logging
framework is used, extending this is an easy modification.
=== Helper Script
`osmo-remsim-client` can call an external shell command / script / program at specific
instances of time. This serves two purposes:
* To keep external system integration posted about the overall status of remsim-client,
such as whether or not it is connected to a server and/or bankd.
* To request the external system to perform specific actions, such as triggering the reset
of the modem - in case the hardware doesn't allow the simtrace2 firmware to do that itself.
==== Script Environment Variables
The environment passed to the helper script contains a number of variables to provide inormation
to the external script:
.Environment Variables

== osmo-remsim-client-shell
This is a remsim-client that's mostly useful for manual debugging/testing or automatic testing.
Instead of using hardware like the SIMtrace with cardem firmware to interface a virtual SIM card
to a real phone or modem, it simply offers and interactive way to exchange APDUs with a remote
SIM card via STDIO of the process.
This allows testing of large parts of the osmo-remsim-client code as well as the integration with
the overall osmo-remsim network including osmo-remsim-server, osmo-remsim-bankd and any external
backend application driving the REST interface.
=== Running
osmo-remsim-client-shell currently has the following command-line options:
==== SYNOPSIS
*osmo-remsim-client-shell* [...]
==== OPTIONS
*-h, --help*::
Print a short help message about the supported options
*-v, --version*::
Print the compile-time version information
*-i, --server-ip A.B.C.D*::
Specify the remote IP address / hostname of the `osmo-remsim-server` to
which this client shall establish its RSPRO control connection
*-p, --server-port <1-65535>*::
Specify the remote TCP port number of the `osmo-remsim-server` to which
this client shall establish its RSPRO control connection
*-c, --client-id <1-65535>*::
Specify the numeric client identifier of the SIM bank this bankd
instance operates. The tuple of client-id and client-slot must be
unique among all clients connecting to the same `osmo-remsim-server`.
*-n, --client-slot <0-65535>*::
Specify the slot number served within this client. The tuple of
client-id and client-slot must be unique among all clients connecting
to the same `osmo-remsim-server`.
`osmo-remsim-bankd` once a card has been mapped to this client.
*-e, --event-script COMMAND*::
Specify the shell command to be execute when the client wants to call its
helper script
==== Examples
The below example uses stderr-redirection to avoid the log output cluttering the console.
.remsim-server is at 192.168.11.10; we are client 23 slot 0
----
./osmo-remsim-client-shell -i 192.168.11.10 -c 23 2>/dev/null
SET_ATR: 3b 00
SET_ATR: 3b 7d 94 00 00 55 55 53 0a 74 86 93 0b 24 7c 4d 54 68
a0a40000023f00
R-APDU: 9f 17
----
* The first SET_ATR is performed by osmo-remsim-client locally using a default ATR
* The second SET_ATR is performed by osmo-remsim-bankd to inform us about the ATR of the real remote card
* The `a0a40000023f00` is a command TPDU entered on STDIN by the suer
* The `9f17` is a response TPDU provided by the remote card in response to the command
The program continues in this loop (read command APDU as hex-dump from stdin; provide response on stdout)
until it is terminated by Ctrl+C or by other means.
== libifd_remsim_client
This is a remsim-client implemented as so-called `ifd_handler`, i.e. a card reader driver
that plugs into the bottom side of the PC/SC daemon of pcsc-lite.
Using this library, you can use normal smart card application programs with remote smart
cards managed by osmo-remsim. The setup looks like this:

}
----
=== Configuration
Like all non-USB PC/SC reader drivers, this is happening in `/etc/reader.conf` or, at
least on Debian GNU/Linux based systems via files in `/etc/reader.conf.d`. The
osmo-remsim software includes an example configuration file and installs it as
`osmo-remsim-client-reader_conf` in that directory.
.contents of the configuration example provided by osmo-remsim-client
----
#FRIENDLYNAME "osmo-remsim-client"
#DEVICENAME 0:0:192.168.11.10:9998
#LIBPATH /usr/lib/pcsc/drivers/libifd-osmo-remsim-client.bundle/Contents/Linux/libifd_remsim_client.so
----
As you can see, all lines are commented out by default. In order to enable the
remsim-client virtual reader, you need to
* remove the `#` character on all three lines
* configure the DEVICNAME according to your local configuration. It is a string with
fields separated by colons, in the form of CLIENT_ID:CLIENT_SLOT:SERVER_IP:SERVER_PORRT
** First part is the Client ID (default: 0)
** Second part is the Client SlotNumbera (default: 0)
** Third part is the IP address of the `osmo-resim-server` (default: localhost)
** Last part is the RSPRO TCP port of the `osmo-remsim-server` (default: 9998)
Once the configuration file has been updated, you should re-start pcscd by issuing
`systemctl restart pcscd` or whatever command your Linux distribution uses for restarting
services.
You can check if the driver is loaded by using the `pcsc_scan` tool included with `pcscd`:

From now on, you can use any application using PC/SC, whether C, Python or Java with a
remote SIM card managed by osmo-remsim.
