Hi Pavel, >> This series adds a new subsystem for GNSS receivers (e.g. GPS >> receivers). > > Actually... I'd just call it GPS subsystem. Yes, GPS is a bit > misleading, but so is GNSS.

We'd like to QZSS to use similar interface, too… GNSS is the term that is known and used by everybody in the industry to identify GPS, GLONASS, Galileo etc. > https://www.pcworld.com/article/205325/japan_launches_its_first_gps_satellite.html > . QZSS is not _global_ positioning system. Still they call it GPS. I'd > call it GPS too. > > (Alternatively, we could have drivers/position and /dev/pos0...) > > Looking closer...

Yes, there will be common code between > /dev/nmea0 and /dev/sirf0… Device node naming is pointless, use DEVTYPE uevent property for identifying the expected protocol.
