[PATCH] usb-serial: support NAL Research Corporation Iridium modems

From: Bertold Van den Bergh
Date: Tue Oct 20 2020 - 11:55:03 EST


This driver is for NAL Reserach Corporation Iridium modems with USB.
There are different variants of the bus protocol, but the driver should
detect this automatically.

+NAL Research Corporation driver
+-------------------------------
+
+ This driver is for NAL Reserach Corporation Iridium modems with USB.
+ There are different variants of the bus protocol, but the driver should
+ detect this automatically.
+
+ The manufacturer provided Windows driver attaches to all PIDs in the given
+ VID, so you may want to try this driver even if the PID doesn't match.
+
+ The manufacturer's website: https://www.nalresearch.com/

+ For any questions or problems with this driver, please contact:
