+GSM 0710 tty multiplexor HOWTO
+==============================
+
+.. contents:: :local:
+
+This line discipline implements the GSM 07.10 multiplexing protocol
+detailed in the following 3GPP document:
+
+ https://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/07_series/07.10/0710-720.zip
+
+This document give some hints on how to use this driver with GPRS and 3G
+modems connected to a physical serial port.
+
+How to use it
+=============
+
+Config Initiator
+----------------
+
+#. Initialize the modem in 0710 mux mode (usually ``AT+CMUX=`` command) through
+ its serial port. Depending on the modem used, you can pass more or less
+ parameters to this command.
+
+#. Switch the serial line to using the n_gsm line discipline by using
+ ``TIOCSETD`` ioctl.
+
+#. Configure the mux using ``GSMIOC_GETCONF_EXT``/``GSMIOC_SETCONF_EXT`` ioctl if needed.
+
+#. Configure the mux using ``GSMIOC_GETCONF``/``GSMIOC_SETCONF`` ioctl.
+
+#. Configure DLCs using ``GSMIOC_GETCONF_DLCI``/``GSMIOC_SETCONF_DLCI`` ioctl for non-defaults.
+
+#. Obtain base gsmtty number for the used serial port.
+
+ Major parts of the initialization program
+ (a good starting point is util-linux-ng/sys-utils/ldattach.c)::
+
+ #include <stdio.h>
+ #include <stdint.h>
+ #include <linux/gsmmux.h>
+ #include <linux/tty.h>
+
+ #define DEFAULT_SPEED B115200
+ #define SERIAL_PORT /dev/ttyS0
+
+ int ldisc = N_GSM0710;
+ struct gsm_config c;
+ struct gsm_config_ext ce;
+ struct gsm_dlci_config dc;
+ struct termios configuration;
+ uint32_t first;
+
+ /* open the serial port connected to the modem */
+ fd = open(SERIAL_PORT, O_RDWR | O_NOCTTY | O_NDELAY);
+
+ /* configure the serial port : speed, flow control ... */
+
+ /* send the AT commands to switch the modem to CMUX mode
+ and check that it's successful (should return OK) */
+ write(fd, "AT+CMUX=0\r", 10);
+
+ /* experience showed that some modems need some time before
+ being able to answer to the first MUX packet so a delay
+ may be needed here in some case */
+ sleep(3);
+
+ /* use n_gsm line discipline */
+ ioctl(fd, TIOCSETD, &ldisc);
+
+ /* get n_gsm extended configuration */
+ ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_GETCONF_EXT, &ce);
+ /* use keep-alive once every 5s for modem connection supervision */
+ ce.keep_alive = 500;
+ /* set the new extended configuration */
+ ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_SETCONF_EXT, &ce);
+ /* get n_gsm configuration */
+ ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_GETCONF, &c);
+ /* we are initiator and need encoding 0 (basic) */
+ c.initiator = 1;
+ c.encapsulation = 0;
+ /* our modem defaults to a maximum size of 127 bytes */
+ c.mru = 127;
+ c.mtu = 127;
+ /* set the new configuration */
+ ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_SETCONF, &c);
+ /* get DLC 1 configuration */
+ dc.channel = 1;
+ ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_GETCONF_DLCI, &dc);
+ /* the first user channel gets a higher priority */
+ dc.priority = 1;
+ /* set the new DLC 1 specific configuration */
+ ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_SETCONF_DLCI, &dc);
+ /* get first gsmtty device node */
+ ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_GETFIRST, &first);
+ printf("first muxed line: /dev/gsmtty%i\n", first);
+
+ /* and wait for ever to keep the line discipline enabled */
+ daemon(0,0);
+ pause();
+
+#. Use these devices as plain serial ports.
+
+ For example, it's possible:
+
+ - to use *gnokii* to send / receive SMS on ``ttygsm1``
+ - to use *ppp* to establish a datalink on ``ttygsm2``
+
+#. First close all virtual ports before closing the physical port.
+
+ Note that after closing the physical port the modem is still in multiplexing
+ mode. This may prevent a successful re-opening of the port later. To avoid
+ this situation either reset the modem if your hardware allows that or send
+ a disconnect command frame manually before initializing the multiplexing mode
+ for the second time. The byte sequence for the disconnect command frame is::
+
+ 0xf9, 0x03, 0xef, 0x03, 0xc3, 0x16, 0xf9
+
+Config Requester
+----------------
+
+#. Receive ``AT+CMUX=`` command through its serial port, initialize mux mode
+ config.
+
+#. Switch the serial line to using the *n_gsm* line discipline by using
+ ``TIOCSETD`` ioctl.
+
+#. Configure the mux using ``GSMIOC_GETCONF_EXT``/``GSMIOC_SETCONF_EXT``
+ ioctl if needed.
+
+#. Configure the mux using ``GSMIOC_GETCONF``/``GSMIOC_SETCONF`` ioctl.
+
+#. Configure DLCs using ``GSMIOC_GETCONF_DLCI``/``GSMIOC_SETCONF_DLCI`` ioctl for non-defaults.
+
+#. Obtain base gsmtty number for the used serial port::
