How to support/contribute? #1

Hello James, I really appreciate the efforts you put into getting the L850-GL modem to work under Linux. As I own a T495 which seems to not have the M.2 USB lanes routed, I think I depend on a working PCIe driver to get the modem working on my machine. I don't know if its possible to support you with your work considering my very limited to non-existant knowledge of driver internals and reverse engineering (though I'd be keen to learn). Thus I'd like to ask you if you could make use of any help regarding

I'm not sure what wants doing next, but here's a start:

https://github.com/xmm7360/xmm7360-pci

As the README says, raw IP support will follow very shortly, so in terms of raw functionality it's basically got everything I need.

But, there is a lot of honing to do. Power management is absent, there's no integration with ModemManager or anything, the RPC interface stuff is filthy and needs a lot of love.

Maybe the NetBSD driver will give us a hint? https://github.com/xmm7360/reversing/issues/2
