Struct osmo_msc_data contains int core_ncc, which is actually the
MNC part of the PLMN, not to be confused with the Network Colour
Code.
The following patch renames this field for clarity and consistency
with the standards.
Check if the NAT has sent 16 bytes of RAND and if a key
has been configured in the system and then generate a
result using milenage. The milenage res will be sent and
noth the four byte GSM SRES derivation.
It is a bit arbitary to decide which one is the global
and which one is the local one. We might change it around.
I don't think we want to introduce it based on BTS.
We need to use different LAC/CI towards the core network.
It is a bit problematic as LAC/CI is a per BTS attribute
so this feature only works if a BSC manages everything in
the same LAC.
Related: SYS#1398
Move the "logging filter imsi IMSI" into the BTS/NITB code to
allow to set the gsm_subscriber and only compare it. This way
we simply compare the subscriber address and don't have to care
if the subscriber data is still valid.
Some switches do not like to receive the IPA PING/PONG messages.
Allow to disable the handling with "no timeout-ping" and create
test cases that verify the switching between the modes. Change the
code to trat <= 0 as an invalid timeout.
Fixes: SYS#713
Before the old code allowed to specify "timeout-ping bla" which
would be parsed as '0' which would trigger a flood of pings. Use
the VTY code to parse it as a number.
We want to reduce the background traffic and might set the ping
interval to be in the range of minutes. But this means that if
the TCP connection is frozen several "SCCP CR CM Service Requests"
will be stuck in the send queue without ever being answered. I
could have used the logic of not receiving the "SCCP CC" to close
the connection but instead I am introducing an overload to schedule
the ping as part of the normal SCCP connection establishment.
The VTY write case has been manually verified, I have also looked
at a single trace to see that the SCCP CR and the IPA PING is
transfered in the same ethernet frame.
Remove ournode_exit_cmd, ournode_end_cmd, and bsc_install_default()
since this functionality is provided by the current libosmocore.
Replace calls to bsc_install_default() by call to
vty_install_default() with the following semantic patch:
@rule1@
expression N;
@@
- bsc_install_default(N);
+ vty_install_default(N);

Send an USSD message to the mobile station requesting a connection
for a call or a SMS when the link to the MSC is down or in the
grace period.
The messages can be set (and this feature activated) by setting
bsc/missing-msc-text resp. msc/bsc-grace-text via the vty.
The generation of both messages has been tested manually.
Ticket: OW#957
Add bsc_install_default() and replace all install_default()
This patch adds bsc_install_default() which calls install_default()
and add 'exit' and 'end'. All other calls to install_default() are
replaced by calls to bsc_install_default().
Since 'exit' and 'end' are now added automatically to each node, the
explicit registrations of these commands are removed by this patch,
too.
The related tests succeed now without work-arounds (except for the
'config' node itself which is part of libosmocore).
Change '%s(bsc)#' to '%s(config-bsc)# '. The missing trailing blank
breaks osmopy's VTYInteract.command() because the blank is contained
in the end patterns which are checked to decide whether to leave the
select loop. Thus trying to execute the 'bsc' command there blocks
the test script forever.
Send an USSD message on each MS connection if the connection to
the MSC has been lost.
Add a vty config command 'bsc-msc-loss-txt' in 'config-msc' to set
the notification string and to enable the feature.
Ticket: OW#957
Katerina pointed out that some nodes are not fully documented and
proposed some messages. The token/timeout messages were correct, I
have modified the other messages. I removed the full-stop from the
PING/PONG documentation as we are normally not using a full sentence.
For short IP failures we want the RF to stay up and wait for
the re-connect but in case the A-link is gone too long it is
good to switch off the RF and wait for commands to enable it
again.
Some nodes below 'config' didn't have ournode_exit / ournode_end,
and thus were not able to properly perform this function. exit should
always only go back one level, while end drops us back to ENABLE_NODE.
The prompt now represents the nesting level, and there's one consistent
space after the final prompt character (typically #).
We want to have multiple MSCs but we also have some data
that is only present on a per BSC basis. Right now the
MSC data is not allocated with talloc, so we have some
change in the talloc contexts.
Be able to configure a list of destinations (duplicates allowed)
that will be tried in a round robin fashion. The change is in
the bsc_msc_connection to operate on a list. We achieve the
round robin nature with the same trick used in the paging code
to delete and append the current entry. The nat code was updated
to compile but one can only configure one destination.
The VTY code calls the write function for nodes in the order of
registration of the node and not in terms of hierachy of nodes. This
means that the e1_input code is written before the MSC node that
was the child of the network. Make the MSC_NODE a direct descendant
of the CONFIG_NODE and avoid this issue.
libosmogsm is a new library that is distributed in the libosmocore.
Now, openbsc depends on it. This patch gets openbsc with this
change.
This patch also rewrites all include path to the new
osmocom/[gsm|core]

The new structure divides the code into a number of libraries
for the BSC core functionality, MSC core functionality, Abis transport,
TRAU and other bits.
This doesn't introduce any functional code change but simply moves
around files and alters Makefile.am accordingly.
Next step would be to disentangle a lot of the inter-library
dependencies and make the individual bits of code more independent.
