forbid Roaming

[A. Valentin]

Hi,

I just wrote a patch to forbid roaming, but it does not work as
expected. The patch is attached.
If I now set

# qmicli -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --nas-set-roaming=OFF

there's no error.
Now I try to get the status:

# qmicli -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --nas-get-system-selection-preference
[/dev/cdc-wdm0] Successfully got system selection preference
    Emergency mode: 'no'
    Mode preference: 'gsm, umts, lte'
    Band preference: 'gsm-dcs-1800, gsm-900-extended, gsm-900-primary,
gsm-850, gsm-pcs-1900, wcdma-2100'
    LTE band preference: '1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14,
17, 18, 19, 20, 21'
    Roaming preference: 'off'
    Network selection preference: 'automatic'

So setting seems to work fine. But the modem is still connected to the
network:

# qmicli -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --nas-get-serving-system
[/dev/cdc-wdm0] Successfully got serving system:
    Registration state: 'registered'

        HDR Status: 'none'
        HDR Hybrid: 'no'
        Forbidden: 'no'

Did I make something wrong or is this just a bug in the modem not
evaluating this?
The device is a branded Huawei E398
Kind regards,

André
