Dylan Van Assche 9cfe782f74 gnss: add GNSS assistance support
Automatically fetch the GNSS assistance data from the Web
to heavily reduce the time to acquire a GNSS lock by uploading
the assistance data to the modem.
This feature is optional and can be disabled in the configuration
as people may prefer to not download the assistance data from
the Quectel/Qualcomm servers.
Also configure the GNSS engine to optimize the performance
and power consumption.

eg25-manager - Quectel EG25 management daemon

eg25-manager is a daemon for managing the Quectel EG25 modem found on the Pine64 PinePhone.

It implements the following features:

  • cleanly power on/off the modem
  • configure/check essential parameters (such as the audio format) on startup
  • monitor the modem state through ModemManager
  • put the modem in low-power mode when suspending the system, and restore it back to normal behavior when resuming
  • monitor the modem state on resume and recover it if needed

Dependencies

eg25-manager requires the following development libraries:

  • libglib2.0-dev
  • libgpiod-dev
  • libmm-glib-dev

Building

eg25-manager uses meson as its build system. Building and installing eg25-manager is as simple as running the following commands:

$ meson ../eg25-build
$ ninja -C ../eg25-build
# ninja -C ../eg25-build install

Configuration

eg25-manager uses device-specific configuration files, named after the device-tree compatible field. These files are installed to /usr/share/eg25-manager. They can be copied to /etc/eg25-manager then modified, that way they won't be overwritten during an upgrade.
