A crash was reported in bssmap_le_tx_reset() sending a RESET with
sccp_user == NULL. Looking at the issue I noticed that when the
sccp_user is torn down, the RESET FSM should also be terminated.
Add bssmap_reset_term_and_free() to the generic RESET FSM implementation
and call from lb_stop() before sccp_user is set to NULL.

From 3GPP TS 48.008 sec 3.1.30 "Common ID":
"""
If the SCCP connection is established due to CSFB from E-UTRAN and the MSC supports
return to the last used PLMN after CS fallback, then it should send the COMMON ID message
to the BSS including the Last used E-UTRAN PLMN ID information element if available at
the MSC immediately following the successful SCCP connection setup.
"""
Furthermore, 3GPP TS 48.008 version 16.0.0 Release 16 "3.2.1.21 CLEAR COMMAND",
for field CSFB Indication, states:
"""
NOTE: This information element doesn't serve any useful purpose. MSCs should not send the
information element unless it is required by the recipients (due to the need to interwork
with older versions of the protocol). It is expected that in future versions of the present
document, this information element will be deleted from this message.
"""
Hence, build up the EUTRAN neighbor list based on whether we received
the Last E-UTRAN PLMN ID IE during Common Id. In the future, we should
probably filter the list while populating it based on the received IE.
This change will also allow reusing same mechanism for SRVCC
EUTRAN->GERAN support, where te Last E-UTRAN PLMN ID IE can be found
inside "Old BSS to New BSS information" IE in msg HANDOVER REQUEST.

This tests the opaquely designed neighbor config storage. However, a
subsequent patch will refactor the neighbor config storage, and this
neighbor ident API will change fundamentally. No need to test this.
The new storage will use the usual scheme of transparent struct and
llist, the opaque design is not necessary and just bloats. There is no
need to test a plain llist, so this test needs no replacement.

So far the list of penalty timers was stored for an opaque target
pointer. That was either a gsm_bts pointer for a local BTS, or a cell
identifier list pointer for a remote-BSS cell.
Reasons to refactor penalty timers:
- The cell identifier list pointer came from the neighbor configuration
storage, but the way cell neighbor config is stored will change in a
subsequent patch. There will be no more cell identifier lists there.
- Storing object pointers is inherently unsafe -- if an object gets
removed and another gets allocated, the penalty timer could
theoretically remain in force for an unrelated object.
Rather store penalty timers for specific Cell IDs. Since remote-BSS
neighbors can be requested by a cell identifier *list*, use a
gsm0808_cell_id_list2 as key in the list of penalty timers.
Fix handover_test.c: have different CI for each local BTS. So far it was
the same LAC+CI for all BTSes, which now would make the test fail,
because any penalty timer would appear to apply to all local cells.

When balancing congestion, not only look at TCH/F or TCH/H separately,
but also to take into account the effects on the other TCH kind from
using/freeing dynamic TS.

For handover algorithm 2, properly figure out what effects the target
cell will see for the *other* TCH kind when a handover would occupy a
dynamic timeslot.
Before this, only TCH/F or TCH/H would be regarded at a time. This
introduces detection of whether a dynamic timeslot would be occupied by
a handover, and how losing one unused dynamic timeslot affects the
congestion situation for the TCH kind that is not targeted by the
handover.
In other words, if a handover to TCH/F causes congestion in TCH/H
because of a dynamic timeslot becoming occupied, the handover will not
be performed. Before this, oscillation situations could occur.
A subsequent patch will do the same for congestion balancing.

The test shows a cascade of failures. When we fix the first failure, it
will change the sequence of events that follow after that. But it will
still be interesting to evaluate all the situations currently shown.
Hence fixate each stage's initial situation, by duplicating the
expect-ts-use with an identical set-ts-use. Then, when each individual
scenario gets fixed, subsequent scenarios still remain unchanged.

The idea is to avoid confusion between the static PDCH and the dynamic
timeslots. The PDCH is always in 'pdch' mode, while the dynamic
timeslots are 'pdch' when they are not occupied by any TCH.
Change-Id: I1a12518d85ed891c491723e7f03f5bdd4fad980f
So far, the test only works because osmo-bsc fails to notice that
occupying the dynamic TS 1 as TCH/F does, overall, not free a TCH/H, but
reduces available TCH/H from 5 to 4 (one TCH/H freed, but two TCH/H lost
from occupying a dynamic TS). An upcoming patch will make osmo-bsc
sensitive for these cross effects between TCH/F and TCH/H when dynamic
timeslots are involved, hence this test needs to be stabilized.
By using a static TCH/F for TS 1 instead of a dynamic timeslot, the dyn
TS cross effect does not occur and this test actually makes sense.

On -u, update the handover_tests.ok file that lists all tests that are

For balancing load across congested cells and across congested TCH/*
kinds, instead of comparing the number of lchans above the configured
congestion threshold, compare the percent of lchans of overload.
In short, using a percentage prevents cells with less min-free-slots to
fill up 100% while neighbor cells still may have several free lchans
available.
An obvious example of why this is desirable is illustrated by
test_balance_congestion_by_percentage.ho_vty:
Cell A has min-free-slots 2, and has all slots occupied.
Cell B has min-free-slots 4, and has 2 slots remaining free.
If we count congested lchans as in current master: cell A has a
congestion count of 2: two more lchans in use than "allowed". If we move
one lchan over to cell B, it ends up with a congestion count of 3, which
is worse than 2. So when counting lchans, we decide that cell A should
remain full.
Instead, when comparing percentage of remaining lchans, we would see
that cell A is loaded 100% above congestion (2 of 2 remaining lchans in
use), but when moving one lchan to cell B, that would only be 75% loaded
above its treshold (3 of 4 remaining lchans in use). So a percentage
comparison would cause a handover to cell B.

When evenly distributing congestion across cells, count the number of

With 'set-ts-use', it is convenient to build a scenario of lchan usage,
but still inconvenient to send measurement reports to all lchans.
I need this for testing congestion-check, because each lchan needs to
have at least one measurement report, or congestion check is skipped.
Example:
set-ts-use trx 0 0 states * TCH/F TCH/F - - TCH/HH TCH/HH TCH/H-
meas-rep lchan * * * * rxlev 10 rxqual 0 ta 0
This patch adds the '*' for the lchan arguments, usually being bts idx,
trx idx, timeslot idx and subslot idx.
Use lchan wildcards at the appropriate places to shorten some tests.

Do not clear pending chan act requests when sending a measurement report

unnoticed and dangling, e.g. for repeated meas-rep.
A typical test should indeed handle pending channel activation requests

that only one channel activation is pending.

Fix flaws in picking a candidate for congestion resolution, shown in
recently added tests.
- For TCH/H->TCH/F upgrading, do not favor moving to a weaker neighbor
cell.
- When comparing dynamic timeslots on the same cell, favor a dynamic
timeslot that frees an entire dyn TS even though the target rxlev
differs.
Do not separate the passes for inter-cell and intra-cell candidates:
before, the inter-cell pass would already pick a candidate and start
handover, even though the subsequent intra-cell pass would have revealed
a better candidate. Join the intra-cell considerations into
pick_better_lchan_to_move().
The intra-cell pass was separate, because it would find the *weakest*
current rxlev, to give a TCH/H to TCH/F upgrade to the currently weakest
lchan.
Instead of the separate pass for weakest rxlev, in addition to the
target cell's rxlev, also consider the rxlev *change* in
pick_better_lchan_to_move(): For candidates that do not change the rxlev
(usually those that stay in the same cell) and that upgrade to TCH/F,
favor a candidate with weaker current rxlev.
Completely revisit the conditions in pick_better_lchan_to_move() to
yield the desired prioritization of candidate preferences.
In three handover tests, remove the "FAIL" comments and adjust to now
expect the actually desired behavior.

In handover decision 2, choosing an lchan to move so far takes into
account only the absolute current rxlev, and it fails to look at the
*difference* in rxlev between source and target cell.
My recent feature to favor freeing half-used TCH/H does in fact not work
well. The main reason why the test for that feature passes is that all
lchans in the test get identical measurements -- which is unrealistic.
A test with differing ratings uncovers the flaw in comparing intra-cell
candidates.

The handover_fsm activates voice on a target lchan only when the source
lchan has an osmo_mgcpc_ep_ci pointer for the BTS side. Since that

dereferenced.

Drop the string arrays, and move the 32 handover tests to separate

cryptic commands, implement the handover test scripts as a VTY.
handover_test.c now sets up a VTY with handover testing VTY commands. It
also features the complete and unabridged VTY configuration nodes of
osmo-bsc itself. That allows dropping various ho script commands.

Note how osmo-bsc's stock vty config nodes seamlessly integrate in the
test steps: just enter a configuration node, modify some values, and
indenting trivially takes care of exiting nodes correctly.
Running a test manually:
./handover_test test_0123.ho_vty
Instead of calling each test separately in testsuite.at, have a
handover_tests.sh script that picks up new tests just by presence of
files named test*.ho_vty.
Rationale:
It was considered to move handover tests to the TTCN suite, but there is
an advantage in having these C tests: they run super fast and catch bugs
even in the gerrit verification job, potentially saving a lot of time.
It is a reality that I need more of these tests, for dynamic timeslots
and TCH/F <-> TCH/H switches. The way the handover tests are written, as
arrays of strings containing cryptic fixed-argument script commands, has
been a pain to work with from the start, and now I am no longer willing
to endure that pain.

When a used timeslot gets moved to another timeslot for load balancing, prefer
moving a dynamic timeslot, as illustrated by handover_test.c test 30.
Rationale: freeing up a dynamic timeslot is better for PDCH availability, as
well as for flexibility in timeslots. Test 30 shows that when freeing a static
TCH/F even though a dynamic one with identical ratings is in use, later
handovers to a TCH/H may become impossible, because no more dynamic timeslots
are available to switch to TCH/H. A freed dynamic timeslot allows congestion
resolution to continue and reduce more TCH/F to TCH/H.
The scope of this preference is per-TRX, where the RXLEV ratings used for
picking a target lchan are the same by definition. In other words, this never
overrules picking another lchan that has better RXLEV.
Among lchans on dynamic timeslots that could be moved, this code favors moving
later lchans; mainly because it makes for a simpler condition in the code.

So far the 'meas-rep' expects the index of the MS in order of appearance, to
send a measurement report for that MS. That may seem like a simplification for
human readability, but in fact, it is confusing for a human to keep track which
MS has which index, and to which timeslot it has been handovered. When reading
the tests, it is much easier to read exactly which timeslot the measurement
report is being sent to; which MS came first is inherently not as interesting
as which lchans are currently occupied.
Change-Id: I7ab2ef604196cfe96112dfefb9aa930368bf4812
When a test wants to use N lchans, so far it has to issue N 'create-ms'
commands. Many lchan distributions cannot be easily obtained by this, because
'crate-ms' always takes the first free lchan. To shorten test setup and easily
allow arbitrary lchan distributions, this command sets specific lchans to
specific usage states in one line.

Separate the a_reset FSM implementation from BSSMAP and MSC specifics, so that
it can be re-used on the Lb interface.
Move the FSM implementation to bssmap_reset.c and tweak, to match common practices we
have generally established in our osmo_fsm implementations.
Keep a_reset.h and a_reset.c and redirect to bssmap_reset.c.
A difficulty is setting a proper logging category: the FSM definition allows
only one fixed logging category for FSM state transitions and events. Ideally,
the BSSMAP reset fsm would log on DMSC, and the BSSMAP-LE reset fsm would log
on DLCS. Since that is not possible, introduce a separate DRESET logging
category. This in fact matches an item on my wishlist, because if a given MSC
is configured but currently not connected, the previous RESET FSM would
continuously "spam" log LOGL_NOTICE messages indicating that it is resending
RESET, and I often want to silence those messages without silencing the entire
DMSC category. This is now easily possible by setting DRESET logging to
LOGL_ERROR. There is additional "link up" / "link lost" logging on DMSC, so all
interesting info is still visible on DMSC.

The N-CONNECT.req on the A interface is a possible *consequence* of the event
being handled, namely the incoming RSL ESTablish INDication containing the
Complete Layer 3 message: dispatched by bsc_compl_l3().
If an (LCS related) connection is already present on the A-interface when the
lchan is established, there will be no N-CONNECT but an N-DATA sending the
Complete Layer 3. See BSC_Tests.TC_cm_service_during_lcs_loc_req().

Allow starting a paging from elsewhere than a BSSMAP Paging Request. For
upcoming Location Services (LCS), a BSSLAP TA Request from the SMLC may require
triggering a Paging.

Move conn allocation to bsc_compl_l3(), from gsm0408_rcvmsg().
Drop dispatch of GSCON_EV_A_DISC_IND, because a) we did not receive such
DISC.IND, and b) the lchan release will discard the conn in the regular
fashion.
In upcoming LCS patch, bsc_compl_l3() will decide whether to allocate a new
conn or whether a conn from a Perform Location Request already exists for the
subscriber.
In this patch, it becomes clear that the conn->bsub is always NULL in
bsc_compl_l3(), and that the 'log_set_context(LOG_CTX_BSC_SUBSCR, conn->bsub);'
never has the intended effect. An upcoming patch will change that.

As 3GPP TS 48.058 clearly states, an RLL RELease INDication is only
sent if the datalink is released by the MS. Thre's no cause value
giving further diagnostics, but if the MS releases the link, it is
clearly not the BSS's fault, and hence "BSS not equipped" is wrong.

Place all code related to the object into the related file.
Having all the data model in one file made sense in early stage of
development to make progress quickly, but nowadays it hurts more than
helps, due to constantly growing size and more and more bits being
added to the model, gaining in complexity.
Currently, having lots of different objects mixed up in gsm_data.h is a hole
of despair, where nobody can make any sense were to properly put new stuff
in, ending up with functions related to same object in different files
or with wrong prefixes, declarations of non-existing functions, etc.
because people cannot make up their mind on strict relation to objects
in the data model.
Splitting them in files really helps finding code operating on a
specific object and helping with logically splitting in the future.

Found while playing with "rf_locked 1" on a 2TRX setup with channel
allocator descend. After applying the setting, the 1st TRX is still used
to allocate the channels. After this patch is applied, the BSC correctly
allocates channels from TRX0.

For historical reasons we had bsc_vty.c and osmo_bsc_vty.c. Ever since the
osmo-nitb split, there is no reason to keep these files separate. Merge
osmo_bsc_vty.c into bsc_vty.c (because osmo_bsc_vty.c is smaller).
I noticed this particularly because adding the NRI configuration required
adding things like #define NRI_STR in two separate files: once for the
'network' level vty, and once for the 'msc' level.

The BSC is the wrong network component to originate USSD messaging, as can be
seen in the hacks in the USSD code: for example, the BSC would send a CM
Service Accept message as if an MSC had accepted the connection, dispatch a
USSD and directly send some RR release message (without proper tear down
messaging like the lchan_fsm does these days). This made sense in the osmo-nitb
world, but by now we are aiming for solid 3GPP compliance. The BSC shall not
originate USSD messages.
Deprecate all VTY and CTRL commands related to USSD:
VTY
[no] bsc-welcome-text
[no] bsc-msc-lost-text
[no] bsc-grace-text
[no] missing-msc-text
(the commands with 'no' are ignored, without 'no' lead to an error)
CTRL
ussd-notify-v1
Drop (already unused) ussd.h.
Drop gsm_04_80.h, gsm_04_80_utils.c, and all calling code.
Drop "RF grace" notification, where osmo-bsc was able to notify active
subscribers that the RF was being turned off.

Filtering by IMSI in osmo-bsc is a legacy use case with questionable
usefulness. Remove.
Do not keep deprecated VTY commands: those could be dangerous, since
(presumably non-existing) users might assume that the filtering would still be
in place. Rather fail to start osmo-bsc for config with an IMSI ACL.
The IMSI filtering did, if present, provide the logging with an IMSI to print
for the bsc_subscriber. TMSIs should have ended up in logging likewise, which
has never been implemented. The proper way to learn the IMSI would be by the
Common Id message from the MSC. Furthermore, the upcoming MSC pooling feature
will extract the mobile identity again, and will hence make sure that both IMSI
and TMSI identities, as available, end up in the bsc_subscriber and will be
logged again.
So long, IMSI ACL, and thanks for all the fish.

This adds code to handle CBSP (Cell Broadcast Service Protocol)
from the CBC (Cell Broadcast Centre), as well as BSC-internal data
structures for scheduling the various SMSCB on the CBCH of each BTS.
There are currently one known shortcoming in the code: We don't yet
verify if keepalives are received within repetition period.

bsc_clear_request() is in fact used only within gsm_08_08.c, make it static to
that file.
Since the gscon FSM, "real" BSSMAP Clear are sent only by gscon_bssmap_clear().
bsc_clear_request() remains in use for legacy code paths in gsm_08_08.c:
- the bsc_filter, i.e. for IMSI filtering;
- in move_to_msc(), from handle_cc_setup(), a code path that is in fact not
entirely clear to me. It seems to be an old functionality to serve multiple
MSCs?
Both of which I personally haven't seen in use, are not tested and should
probably be completely removed.
For now contain legacy code in the static context.
Adjust comment.

Old osmo-bsc-sccplite already supported this, but in the migration
over to libosmo-sigtran and to real 3GPP AoIP, this functionality
got lost.
We now create a UDP proxy socket. Any MGCP commands received via IPA
from MSC (or rather: bsc_nat) are retransmitted to the MGW via UDP on
this socket. Any responses back from the MGW received on the UDP
socket are retransmitted back to MSC/bsc_nat as MGCP inside the IPA
multiplex.
