(No, I don't have that code > ... it went with the start-up. :-<) we have written PPP from scratch for the oFono project for exactly the same reason. We needed something in form of a library and not a daemon. http://git.kernel.org/?p=network/ofono/ofono.git Look under gatchat directory. Especially when it comes to intermixing of 3GPP 27.007 and 27.010 with PPP for online mode, the current pppd causes too much overhead. It is not only that you have to spawn the pppd process and its extra plugin for handling feedback. You also need to have a TTY or PTY to use it. And that was causing overhead that was not acceptable to us.
