And bts-trx printing all the time:

The effects of the neighbor configuration depend on the LAC, Cell
Identity, ARFCN, BSIC configuration of neighbor cells. Make sure that
the neighbor ARFCN list in the System Information is updated.
This may seem rather aggressive: updating the SI of all BTS if only one
config item changed. But indeed even modifying one config item of one
BTS may cause a change in the neighbor relations that many other BTS may
have to the changed BTS. For example, if many BTS configure a
'neighbor lac-ci 42 23', and this cell's config changes to LAC 43, all
of those other BTS need to update their neighbor ARFCNs.
Also update the system information even before the BTS are connected and
started up. The main benefit here is that the VTY 'show bts N' command
then already lists the correct neighbor ARFCNs.
In gsm_bts_trx_set_system_infos(), make sure that the updated SI is only
sent to TRXes that are actually usable, otherwise abis_rsl_sendmsg()
spams the log with complaints that a message's dst == NULL. Still return
an error rc in case a TRX is not connected, so that the CTRL command
bts.N.send-new-system-informations accurately returns whether SI were
actually sent to all TRXes.
The desire to have the ARFCNs listed in the VTY before starting up BTSes
came during analysis for Ifb54d9a91e9bca032c721f12c873c6216733e7b1,
which fixes a bug that is now much easier to verify being fixed.

Calculating the Cell Allocation (basically a bit-vector of all the
frequencies allocated to a cell) on the OML link establishment has
several downsides and potential problems:
* Theoretically, more than 64 ARFCNs can be allocated for a cell
via the VTY interface. The problem here is that the Mobile
Allocation IE cannot contain more than 64 channels.
* The BSC's operator will neither be warned by the interactive
VTY shell during configuration, nor during the startup.
* The BSC will accept such a configuration, but then will be
unable to encode the Mobile Allocation IEs at run-time.
This change aims to improve the situation by separating part of
the logic from generate_cell_chan_list(), and invoking this
part directly from the VTY commands. This way it will become
impossible to configure more than 64 ARFCNs, neither via the
config file, nor interactively from the VTY.

The neighbor configuration storage is fundamentally broken: it requires
all local cells to be configured before being able to list them as
neighbors of each other. Upon config write-back, the neighbor config
however is placed back inline with the other config, and hence a
written-out neighbor config no longer works on program restart.
The cause of this problem is that the config is stored as explicit
pointers between local cells (struct gsm_bts), which of course requires
the pointer to exist before being able to reference it.
Instead, store the actual configuration that the user entered as-is,
without pointers or references to objects that need to be ready. Resolve
the neighbors every time a neighbor is needed.
Hence the user may enter any config at any place in the config file,
even non-working config (like a BTS number that doesn't exist), and the
relation to actual local or remote neighbor cells is made at runtime.
Abort program startup if the initial neighbor configuration contains
errors.

This new CTRL interface allows users of this BSC (such as attached PCU)
to gather neighbor information.
This interface is needed for PCU to translate ARFCN+BSIC keys provided
by MS in the Um side into CGI + RAC keys used to identify target cells
in RIM procedures against SGSNs on the Gb interface.
This patch extends the already existing neighbor information storage in
the VTY by allowing storage of CGI + RAC (RAC couldn't be stored
beforehand).

Before this patch, Get Attributes was sent quicklyafter the OML link
became up, even if the BTS/BB_TRANSC objects were still powered off,
which is wrong since attributes should only be available after the

Furthermore, information about get attr response already received will
be required in future patches to delay NSVC setting.

The only real 1-1 relationship between BTS NM objects is the one between
GPRS Cell and BTS (which is actually a BTS cell).
In our current osmo-bts implementation we don't care much since we only
handle 1-cell BTSses, but let's make the data structure organization
more generic.
Implementation notes:
The gsm_bts_sm is moved to its own file, APIs to allocate are added and
the new public object is hooked correctly in the allocation process of
osmo-bsc.

Previous code relied on abort() switching sigaction to SIG_FDL +
retriggering SIGABRT in case the signal handler returns, which would
then generate the coredump + terminate the process.
However, if a SIGABRT is received from somewhere else (killall -SIGABRT
osmo-bsc), then the process would print the talloc report and continue
running, which is not desired.

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.

According to 3GPP TS 44.018, table 10.5.2.21.1 "Mobile Allocation
information element", in the cell allocation frequency list the
absolute RF channel numbers are placed in increasing order, except
that ARFCN 0, if included in the set, is put in the last position.
This basically means that the last bit of the Mobile Allocation
(MSB on the wire) corresponds to ARFCN 0, if it's included in
the cell allocation frequency list, or the last channel otherwise.
Recently introduced TTCN-3 test cases uncover the following problems:
a) ARFCN 0 is encoded twice: as MSB and LSB of the bit-mask,
b) ARFCN 0 is encoded one bit off its expected location.

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.

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.

As can be seen from include/osmocom/bsc/gsm_data.h:
- pchan_from_config - channel configuration from the VTY/config
(can be changed from the VTY at runtime, should not affect
the existing RSL/OML connections);
- pchan_on_init - channel configuration after the OML link is
established (pchan_from_config is copied here);
- pchan_is - the *actual* channel configuration currently active.
Since we call bootstrap_bts() during the initialization, even before
establishing any OML/RSL connections, neither pchan_on_init nor
pchan_is can be used. Let's use pchan_from_config instead.
This change fixes the problem discovered by @mqng2 and reported
together with https://gerrit.osmocom.org/c/osmo-bsc/+/15909:
CCCH_CONF in System Information Type 3 does not reflect the
actual channel configuration, and always indicates a single
CCCH combined with SDCCH. This also misleads the lchan
allocation algorithm during the MO connection establishment.
