This PR adds the following modem modules to the subsys/modem
folder:
- chat: Light implementation of the Linux chat program, used to
send and receive text based commands statically created
scripts.
- cmux: Implementation of the CMUX protocol
- pipe: Thread-safe async data-in/data-out binding layer between
modem modules.
- ppp: Implementation of the PPP protocol, binding the Zephyr PPP
L2 stack with the data-in/data-out pipe.
These modules use the abstract pipes to communicate between each
other. To bind them with the hardware, the following backends
are provided:
- TTY: modem pipe <-> POSIX TTY file
- UART: modem pipe <-> UART, async and ISR APIs supported
The backends are used to abstract away the physical layer, UART,
TTY, IPC, I2C, SPI etc, to a modem modules friendly pipe.
