🌸 NAME 🌸

gsm_activate_mux — generic GSM setup

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int gsm_activate_mux (struct gsm_mux *gsm );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• gsm — our mux. literally the mux we’re working with, bestie 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so this function sets up the bits of the mux that are the same for all framing protocols. No cap — that’s the shared mux setup part.

Then it adds the mux to the mux table so it can be opened, and finally it kicks off connecting to DLCI 0 on the modem. Slay. 💅
