Overview ¶

Lightweight Machine to Machine (LwM2M) is an application layer protocol designed with device management, data reporting and device actuation in mind. Based on CoAP/UDP, LwM2M is a standard defined by the Open Mobile Alliance and suitable for constrained devices by its use of CoAP packet-size optimization and a simple, stateless flow that supports a REST API.

One of the key differences between LwM2M and CoAP is that an LwM2M client initiates the connection to an LwM2M server. The server can then use the REST API to manage various interfaces with the client.

LwM2M uses a simple resource model with the core set of objects and resources defined in the specification.

Example LwM2M object and resources: Device ¶

The server could query the Manufacturer resource for Device object instance 0 (the default and only instance) by sending a READ 3/0/0 operation to the client.

The full list of registered objects and resource IDs can be found in the LwM2M registry.

Zephyr’s LwM2M library lives in the subsys/net/lib/lwm2m, with a client sample in samples/net/lwm2m_client. For more information about the provided sample see: LwM2M client The sample can be configured to use normal unsecure network sockets or sockets secured via DTLS.

The Zephyr LwM2M library implements the following items:

engine to process networking events and core functions
RD client which performs BOOTSTRAP and REGISTRATION functions
TLV, JSON, and plain text formatting functions
LwM2M Technical Specification Enabler objects such as Security, Server, Device, Firmware Update, etc.
Extended IPSO objects such as Light Control, Temperature Sensor, and Timer

The library currently implements up to LwM2M specification 1.0.2.

For more information about LwM2M visit OMA Specworks LwM2M.

Sample usage ¶

To use the LwM2M library, start by creating an LwM2M client context lwm2m_ctx structure:

/* LwM2M client context */
static struct lwm2m_ctx client;

Create callback functions for LwM2M resource exuctions:

static int device_reboot_cb(uint16_t obj_inst_id, uint8_t *args,
                            uint16_t args_len)
{
        LOG_INF("Device rebooting.");
        LOG_PANIC();
        sys_reboot(0);
        return 0; /* wont reach this */
}

The LwM2M RD client can send events back to the sample. To receive those events, setup a callback function:

static void rd_client_event(struct lwm2m_ctx *client,
                            enum lwm2m_rd_client_event client_event)
{
        switch (client_event) {

        case LWM2M_RD_CLIENT_EVENT_NONE:
                /* do nothing */
                break;

        case LWM2M_RD_CLIENT_EVENT_BOOTSTRAP_REG_FAILURE:
                LOG_DBG("Bootstrap registration failure!");
                break;

        case LWM2M_RD_CLIENT_EVENT_BOOTSTRAP_REG_COMPLETE:
                LOG_DBG("Bootstrap registration complete");
                break;

        case LWM2M_RD_CLIENT_EVENT_BOOTSTRAP_TRANSFER_COMPLETE:
                LOG_DBG("Bootstrap transfer complete");
                break;

        case LWM2M_RD_CLIENT_EVENT_REGISTRATION_FAILURE:
                LOG_DBG("Registration failure!");
                break;

        case LWM2M_RD_CLIENT_EVENT_REGISTRATION_COMPLETE:
                LOG_DBG("Registration complete");
                break;

        case LWM2M_RD_CLIENT_EVENT_REG_UPDATE_FAILURE:
                LOG_DBG("Registration update failure!");
                break;

        case LWM2M_RD_CLIENT_EVENT_REG_UPDATE_COMPLETE:
                LOG_DBG("Registration update complete");
                break;

        case LWM2M_RD_CLIENT_EVENT_DEREGISTER_FAILURE:
                LOG_DBG("Deregister failure!");
                break;

        case LWM2M_RD_CLIENT_EVENT_DISCONNECT:
                LOG_DBG("Disconnected");
                break;

        }
}

Next we assign Security resource values to let the client know where and how to connect as well as set the Manufacturer and Reboot resources in the Device object with some data and the callback we defined above:

/*
 * Server URL of default Security object = 0/0/0
 * Use leshan.eclipse.org server IP (5.39.83.206) for connection
 */
lwm2m_engine_set_string("0/0/0", "coap://5.39.83.206");

/*
 * Security Mode of default Security object = 0/0/2
 * 3 = NoSec mode (no security beware!)
 */
lwm2m_engine_set_u8("0/0/2", 3);

#define CLIENT_MANUFACTURER "Zephyr Manufacturer"

/*
 * Manufacturer resource of Device object = 3/0/0
 * We use lwm2m_engine_set_res_data() function to set a pointer to the
 * CLIENT_MANUFACTURER string.
 * Note the LWM2M_RES_DATA_FLAG_RO flag which stops the engine from
 * trying to assign a new value to the buffer.
 */
lwm2m_engine_set_res_data("3/0/0", CLIENT_MANUFACTURER,
                          sizeof(CLIENT_MANUFACTURER),
                          LWM2M_RES_DATA_FLAG_RO);

/* Reboot resource of Device object = 3/0/4 */
lwm2m_engine_register_exec_callback("3/0/4", device_reboot_cb);

Lastly, we start the LwM2M RD client (which in turn starts the LwM2M engine). The second parameter of lwm2m_rd_client_start() is the client endpoint name. This is important as it needs to be unique per LwM2M server:

(void)memset(&client, 0x0, sizeof(client));
lwm2m_rd_client_start(&client, "unique-endpoint-name", 0, rd_client_event);

Using LwM2M library with DTLS ¶

The Zephyr LwM2M library can be used with DTLS transport for secure communication by selecting :kconfig:`CONFIG_LWM2M_DTLS_SUPPORT`. In the client initialization we need to create a PSK and identity. These need to match the security information loaded onto the LwM2M server. Normally, the endpoint name is used to lookup the related security information:

/* "000102030405060708090a0b0c0d0e0f" */
static unsigned char client_psk[] = {
        0x00, 0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06, 0x07,
        0x08, 0x09, 0x0a, 0x0b, 0x0c, 0x0d, 0x0e, 0x0f
};

static const char client_identity[] = "Client_identity";

Next we alter the Security object resources to include DTLS security information. The server URL should begin with coaps:// to indicate security is required. Assign a 0 value (Pre-shared Key mode) to the Security Mode resource. Lastly, set the client identity and PSK resources.

/* Use coaps:// for server URL protocol */
lwm2m_engine_set_string("0/0/0", "coaps://5.39.83.206");
/* 0 = Pre-Shared Key mode */
lwm2m_engine_set_u8("0/0/2", 0);
/* Set the client identity */
lwm2m_engine_set_string("0/0/3", (char *)client_identity);
/* Set the client pre-shared key (PSK) */
lwm2m_engine_set_opaque("0/0/5", (void *)client_psk, sizeof(client_psk));

Before calling lwm2m_rd_client_start() assign the tls_tag # where the LwM2M library should store the DTLS information prior to connection (normally a value of 1 is ok here).

(void)memset(&client, 0x0, sizeof(client));
client.tls_tag = 1; /* <---- */
lwm2m_rd_client_start(&client, "endpoint-name", 0, rd_client_event);

For a more detailed LwM2M client sample see: LwM2M client.

int lwm2m_engine_start(struct lwm2m_ctx *client_ctx)¶

Start the LwM2M engine.

LwM2M clients normally do not need to call this function as it is called by lwm2m_rd_client_start(). However, if the client does not use the RD client implementation, it will need to be called manually.

Parameters

client_ctx – [in] LwM2M context

Returns

0 for success or negative in case of error.

void lwm2m_acknowledge(struct lwm2m_ctx *client_ctx)¶

Acknowledge the currently processed request with an empty ACK.

LwM2M engine by default sends piggybacked responses for requests. This function allows to send an empty ACK for a request earlier (from the application callback). The LwM2M engine will then send the actual response as a separate CON message after all callbacks are executed.

Parameters

client_ctx – [in] LwM2M context

The RD client sits just above the LwM2M engine and performs the necessary actions to implement the “Registration interface”. For more information see Section 5.3 “Client Registration Interface” of the LwM2M Technical Specification.

NOTE: lwm2m_engine_start() is called automatically by this function.

Parameters

client_ctx – [in] LwM2M context
ep_name – [in] Registered endpoint name
flags – [in] Flags used to configure current LwM2M session.
event_cb – [in] Client event callback function

void lwm2m_rd_client_stop(struct lwm2m_ctx *client_ctx, lwm2m_ctx_event_cb_t event_cb)¶

Stop the LwM2M RD (De-register) Client.

The RD client sits just above the LwM2M engine and performs the necessary actions to implement the “Registration interface”. For more information see Section 5.3 “Client Registration Interface” of the LwM2M Technical Specification.

Parameters

client_ctx – [in] LwM2M context
event_cb – [in] Client event callback function
