channel to another one (simple voice call switching)
* add a way more generic E1 input layer, abstracting out the misdn
low-level interface. This also adds infrastructure for multiple TRX
in one BTS, as well as multiple BTS on one E1 link
* add a E1 subchannel multiplexer for sending multiple 16kbit sub-channels
one one 64kBps E1 channel
* add TRAU IDLE frame generation
* terminate bsc_hack in case there is a E1 / mISDN init error
* introduce 'e1_config.c' file with static configuration of our
E1 setup (which TRX/BTS is configured for which TEI/SAPI/E1). This should
later become a config file rather than a compiled C file.
WARNING: all this compiles but is not tested yet. Expect fix-up committs over
the next hours or so
After auto releasing a channel the next paging request will
not be immediately answered. The hypothesis was that we do
not release the channel properly. Implementing Channel Release
of GSM 04.08 should have fixed it, but it didn't. According
to the wireshark dissectors the message is correct though.
- Add the RR cause values to gsm_04_08.
- Implement the Channel Release message
- Invoke the release channel function before deallocating
the lchan.
There is a 1:1 relationship between gsm_bts and the paging
operation. Move the paging state into the gsm_bts which is
simplfying the code a lot. This was hinted by LaF0rge.
(I'm not happy with the names of the structs)
- The paging block calculation is wrong but I have a hard time finding
the right information. The table of 05.02 (Table 5 of 9) looks good
but my phone is not happy with that group...
- Initialize Control Channel Description of SI3
- Patch the table
- Setting ATT now is easy
- Paging can now extract all required information... to determine
the right paging group.
For finding the right paging group one needs to know various
settings that are broadcasted as part of system settings 3. This
includes the CCCH Conf, the BS_PA_MFRMS, BS_AG_BLKS_RES.... The
next step will be to move away from the hardcoded System Settings 3
so one can calculate the paging group...
* new abis_nm_bs11_bsc_disconnect() function to disconnect BSC/BTS link
* add support for 'forced load' of BS-11 software to abis_nm.c and bs11_config
* remove lots of debug output
* print progress during software load
* add more BS11 specific attributes
* define all valid BS11 PA power classes
* add callback function to software load
* introduce SWL load function for BS-11 style SWL file lists
* separate activation of software from loading of software
* add function to obtain BS-11 serial number
Be able to send Accept/Reject the Service Request. Use mi_string
instead of the the msgb buffer (even if it is memsetted and such)...
The TMSI allocation seems to be a bit problematic and needs some
further checking. The rough idea is that we try to find the subscriber
for a CM Service Request and then decide based on the subscriber
if we want to handle the call.
Wrote and test code to add and remove paging requests... This
will be using the fact that the linux list is building a circle
on each tick we can send one/x paging requests and continue round
robin...
You can request to open a channel to a MS and the paging layer
will call you once the channel is allocated. Internally the CCCH
Load Indication will be handled and retry to page a terminal.
Remove the callbacks from gsm_network for now. A set of different
callbacks will be back. E.g. when the paging is completed, when the
Q.931 like call handling is there...
Remove var's or move them into #if 0, remove unused stuff that looks
like we do not need it anytime soon or #if 0 them, move stuff around.
Allow to change the refcount for a given channel. Store which
bts is our primary bts. A command to switch the primary bts will
be added as well. This makes entering and parsing of commands more
easy.
Really compare pointers to check if the one gsm_subscriber
is equal to the other... gsm_subscriber should be unique for
a given IMSI so comparing the pointers should be fine.
