Sorry about the late reply on this. I've been meaning to look into adding USB support to the GNSS subsystem and using that instead of USB serial, but I've been really short on time lately. The GNSS subsystem provides a generic interface to user-space regardless of the type of interface used (e.g. serial, i2c, spi, USB) and can be extended with GNSS specific features (e.g. power control signals) as needed. I've written a small generic driver for GNSS receivers with a USB interface which I've verified using a u-blox receiver: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211220111901.23206-1-johan@kernel.org (local) Would you mind giving it a spin with the Sierra device as well?
