Hi,
I work for a company that develops telemetry boxes, and that uses a Poky/Yocto distribution running on the main board.
It is planned to integrate a cellular module connected via USB or serial link to the main board.
Using some Linux distribution, it exists drivers that help recognizing a cellular modem USB stick and to raise a corresponding network interface.
Would you know please if such a generic cellular modem driver exists in Poky/Yocto distribution please?
More further, It could be helpful to have some tutorial notes to integrate it please.
I would be also interested by information on various cellular modem support solutions, if already studied.
Thanks for your help.
Best Regards,
Simon Andrieu

Would connman + ofono be suitable?

Do you have any clue why it's a separate layer? The recipes mostly seem to
overlap with OE-core.

I'm working a similar applications. Most USB devices seem to implement CDC ACM
that works quite well with kernel drivers. Basically you end up with one of
/dev/ttyACM devices that pppd can talk to.
In past, due to image size constraints, we had custom code that looked at
these devices (used libudev to correlated /dev entries with usb devices) and
started pppd, thus skipping ofono/connman and their deps. The current setups
are mostly systemd/systemd-networkd + pppd glue. Without much trouble it's
possible to get ~20MB ext3 rootfs image with all the stuff you need.
There were also some dongles that came up as CDC Ether, but I've only seen
this for some WiMAX modules that I'm not sure are even available on the market
anymore.
For transport, you can find rabbitmq-c in meta-oe. I'll also be sending some
patches for Paho MQTT libraries and mosquitto next week or so.

There's what were at the time newer versions, or tweaks to existing
recipes. Hopefully the maintainers will refresh the layer when 1.7 is
released.
