Hi Gary and Team,
Looks like the github send out email in different time ordering, so I copy and
answer Gary's question here:
What kind of Linux drivers use major device numbers 238 or 510?
Ans: I am not quit sure, maybe it is a proprietary number from Intel driver
develop team, if below information not able to tell I will add driver developer
into this discussion thread.
Do you know the driver name for those?
Ans: this is Intel E810 Ethernet chip which use "ice" driver, you can download
from link https://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000/files/ice%20stable/
The latest version is ice-1.11.14
Maybe the lshw I asked for will help explain that.
Ans: info from lshw you can keep as record, it is 4 port NIC
# lshw -C network -businfo | grep E810-C
pci@0000:86:00.0 ens4f0 network Ethernet Controller E810-C for
SFP
pci@0000:86:00.1 ens4f1 network Ethernet Controller E810-C for
SFP
pci@0000:86:00.2 ens4f2 network Ethernet Controller E810-C for
SFP
pci@0000:86:00.3 ens4f3 network Ethernet Controller E810-C for
SFP
Since we know the E810 is a network card, with no GNSS on it, what is the
device you are really working on?
Ans: E810 is controller name while there are lot of sku for different speed and
purpose(datacenter or edge), the one with GNSS is "E810-XXV-4T", the "T" means
time sync NIC. See below lspci output
And the product details you can download from
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/211608/intel-ethernet-network-adapter-e810xxvda4t/specifications.html
# lspci -vvs 0000:86:00.0 | head -2
86:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Ethernet Controller E810-C for
SFP (rev 02)
Subsystem: Intel Corporation Ethernet Network Adapter E810-XXV-4T

As Greg said, images are not helpful. Cut and paste please.

Do you know the driver name for those?
Maybe the lshw I asked for will help explain that.
If not, we'll have to di into the dmesg output.
Since we know the E810 is a network card, with no GNSS on it, what is the

They arrived. It was just that my MUA does not display them as I choose to
read messages in plain text. Thanks for accomodating how I do things, and also
any members of the list with visual impairments.

As Gary said, you need to find out what drivers do those, and to see if they
work, separately from gpsd. Perhaps kermit, or some other terminal program.
Or you can run gpsd with high debug levels, after getting used to it with a
normal USB-attached receiver.

Hi team,
Thanks for comments, Intel did few debug already, 1. with "-p" flag on gpsd cli
the gpsd can access to the device /dev/gnss*. But the "-p" flag is not
necessary to old driver on /dev/ttyGNSS* 2. with "-p" on gpsd, the ubxtool can
work 3. some APIs like stty, gpsctl, gpsmon shows ioctl error, this is not
happen on old driver /dev/ttyGNSS*
So, my quest is:
Is this relate to the serial name /dev/gnss* not in gpsd code or it is relate
to the write access to the device /dev/gnss*
Sorry that I am new to gpsd and appreciate your help.
Danny

That makes no sense. The device is opened before the gpsd -p opton has any
effect.
Last time I'm going to ask: what driver is makeing /dev/GNSS*

You can keep asking questiosns, but if I don't get any answers I'm just going
to ignore you.
