According to TS 08.18, BVCI=0 is for the SIGNALLING entity,
and BVCI=1 is for the PTM entity. Both should not be used
by the PTP entity that we're configuring here.
Currently vty_interface.c is used for the BSC config, in case of
the MGCP Gateway or the BSC Nat process these logging commands are
not available. Move the commands to a new vty_interface_cmds.c file
to allow to share basic commands across different programs.
The logging/debugging code is generic enough to move it into libosmocore
while keeping OpenBSC specific definitions in openbsc itself.
This commit uses the logging support present in libosmocore-0.1.2,
you will have to update your library to this version.
This new gprs-conf branch is intended to contain everything needed
to configure GPRS in the nanoBTS, but without implementing the SGSN/GGSN
functionality.
The SGSN/GGSN development will happen in a branch based on this branch
called "gprs-sgsn"
This library is intended to collect all generic/common funcitionality
of all Osmocom.org projects, including OpenBSC but also OsmocomBB
The library currently includes the following modules:
bitvec, comp128, gsm_utils, msgb, select, signal, statistics, talloc, timer,
tlv_parse, linuxlist
msgb allocation error debugging had to be temporarily disabled as it depends on
'debug.c' functionality which at the moment remains in OpenBSC
Some NM attributes are defined differently depending on
the BTS type. Having one big nm_att_tlvdef[] table for
all BTS types is no longer sufficient. This patch
* introduces 'struct gsm_bts_model' to describe a BTS model
* adds definitions of gsm_bts_model for BS-11 and nanoBTS
* changes the abis_nm_tlv_parse() function: include a bts pointer
Follow up on 424c4f0e29. As pointed out
by Sylvain on the mailinglist I need to remove this here as well.
Do not call db.c code from code that is located in libbsc.a
vty_interface.c is part of libbsc.a but it started to use code
which is found in db.c recently. Fork the subscriber dumping and
provide more information on the layer3+ (MSC) commands. This
is restoring the separation again.
This is the new logging architecture, including
* support for multiuple logging targets like stderr and vty
* log levels in addition to categories/subsystems
* filtering based on imsi, i.e. only see events for one subscriber
* dynamically change log level for each category for each vty
This has the advantage that counters can be added all over the code
very easily, while having only one routine that stores all of the
current counter values to the database. The counters are synced
every 60 seconds, providing relatively fine grained statistics
about the network usage as time passes by.
Tweaking theses can be useful especially tx-integer that influence
both the spread of rach attemps and the delay between two attemps.
Looking up GSM 04.08 3.3.1.1.2 & 10.5.2.29 can help determine good
values. The default are choosed with a wide spacing between attemps
(tx integer = 9 -> T=12 & S=217 (non-combined CCCH/SDCCH) or 115 (for
combined CCCH/SDCCH)). This alleviates the problem of responding to
several RACH attempts by a same MS, allocating several RF channels when
only 1 is needed.

We cannot support in-call handover of calls without a RTP proxy,
since at the time of the handover the SSRC, sequence number and
timestamp of the RTP frames change.
With ip.access, in case of TCH/H, we have one RTP stream for each half-slot
(lchan), not just one per on-air timeslot. This is quite different from
a classic BTS where the TRAU frames of the two TCH/H channels would be
part of the same 16k sub-slot in a E1 timeslot.
Before this commit, OpenBSC used templates for the SYSTEM INFO
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 messages. Those templates were patched in
various places to reflect the network config like ARFCN.
Now, we actually generate those SI messages ourselves, using
values from the configuration file, and even calculating neighbor
cell lists.
All bts'es that you have configured in OpenBSC will end up in
the neighbor cell list - which should be more than sufficient for
the current small-single-site networks.
- Make sure that on runtime the Radio Carrier can be
locked and unlocked. The vty code calls into the
Abis NM to lock/unlock the channel and the state is
stored there.
- Make sure that on start the Radio Carries remains
offline and we are not starting it. On start the
radio carrier is either locked or unlocked. This means
the RSL will not connect until the RF is unlocked. It
will connect then. To see RSL bringup failures one
needs to parse the RSL nack message.
- When the TRX is locked on startup the RSL link will
only be established after it will be unlocked.
