From: Daniel Starke <daniel.starke@xxxxxxxxxxx> n_gsm is based on the 3GPP 07.010 and its newer version is the 3GPP 27.010. See https://portal.3gpp.org/desktopmodules/Specifications/SpecificationDetails.aspx?specificationId=1516 The changes from 07.010 to 27.010 are non-functional. Therefore, I refer to the newer 27.010 here. Chapter 5.5.2 describes that the signal octet in convergence layer type 2 can be either one or two bytes. The length is encoded in the EA bit. This is set 1 for the last byte in the sequence. gsmtty_modem_update() handles this correctly but gsm_dlci_data_output() fails to set EA to 1. There is no case in which we encode two signal octets as there is no case in which we send out a break signal. Therefore, always set the EA bit to 1 for the signal octet to fix this.
