In the current implementation of osmo-bsc, the subscriber connection is
not handled (very) statefully. However, there is some state keeping in the
code that handles the mgcp connection, but there are still to much loose ends
which allow odd situations to happen, which then lead severe error situations
(see also closes tags at the end) This commit adds a number of improvements
to fix those problems.
- Use an osmo-fsm to control the gsm_subscriber_connection state and
make sure that certain operations can only take place at certain states
(e.g let connection oriented SCCP traffic only pass when an SCCP connection
actually exists.
Remove the old osmo_bsc_mgcp.c code. Use the recently developed MGCP client
FSM to handle the MGCP connections.
Also make sure that stuff that already works does not break. This in
particular refers to the internal handover capability and the respective
unit-tests.
See also OS#2823, OS#2768 and OS#2898
- Fix logic to permit assignment to a signalling channel. (OS#2762)
- Introduce T993210 to release lchan + subscr_conn if MSC fails to respond
The GSM specs don't have an explicit timer for this, so let's introdcue
a custom timer (hence starting with 99).
This timeout catches the following situation:
* we send a SCCP CR with COMPL_L3_INFO from the MS to the MSC,
* the MSC doesn't respond (e.g. SCCP routing failure, program down, ...)
The MS is supposed to timeout with T3210, 3220 or 3230. But the BSC
shouldn't trust the MS but have some timer on its own.
SCCP would have a timer T(conn est), but that one is specified to be
1-2min and hence rather long.
See also: OS#2775
- Terminate bsc_subscr_conn_fsm on SCCP N-DISC.ind from MSC
If the MSC is disconnecting the SCCP channel, we must terminate the FSM
which in turn will release all lchan's and other state.
This makes TC_chan_rel_hard_rlsd pass, see also OS#2731
As a side-effect, this fixes TC_chan_act_ack_est_ind_refused(),
where the MSC is answering with CREF to our CR/COMPL_L3.
- Release subscriber connection on RLL RELEASE IND of SAPI0 on main DCCH
The subscriber connection isn't really useful for anything after the
SAPI0 main signalling link has been released. We could try to
re-establish, but our best option is probably simply releasing the
subscriber_conn and anything related to it.
This will make TC_chan_rel_rll_rel_ind pass, see also OS#2730

osmo-msc does currently not check if an MS attemts to establish an
SACCH link on SAPI=0. This combination is not permitted and should
be dropped.
- Make sure that establish indication for SAPI=0 and channel-type=SACCH
is not permitted

When the first EstablishInd (DCCH) is made by the MS, then it must by
definition happen on SAPI=0. The MS may establish multiple connection
on other SAPIs afterwards. At the moment osmo-bsc does not check the
SAPI when an EstablishInd message is received.
- For SAPIs other than 0, check if SAPI=0 has already been
established

The IMMEDIATE ASSIGN REJECT message contains a wait indicator which
tells an MS requesting a channel to wait for a specified amount of
time before trying to request a channel again, i.e. the wait indicator
controls the T3122 timeout value in the MS.
Previously, the wait indicator was fixed to 10 seconds.
This is not sufficient if there are a lot of MS requesting channels
because the MS will retry too soon. Instead of using a fixed value,
maintain a dynamic wait indicator value based on average channel load.
The load (used vs. available channels on a BTS) is sampled once per
second, and once 8 samples have been collected we update a BTS-specific
T3122 wait indicator based on the measured load.
While the wait indicator could go up to 255 seconds, this initial
implementation keeps it in the range from 10 to 128 seconds.
Further experimentation and testing will show whether higher wait
indicator values are desirable, if the sampling rate needs to change,
or if the function mapping the load measurement to a wait indicator
value should change (currently we map the load average linearly into
the range [10, 128] inclusive).

This is needed, so channel can be negotiated before the actual channel
type is assigned.
In case there is no SDCCH available, try to assign what ever the MS requested.
If this is not possible try to assign TCH/F. If this is still not possible,
reject channel request.

This was originally a long series of commits converging to the final result
seen in this patch. It does not make much sense to review the smaller steps'
trial and error, we need to review this entire change as a whole.
Implement AoIP in osmo-msc and osmo-bsc.
Change over to the new libosmo-sigtran API with support for proper
SCCP/M3UA/SCTP stacking, as mandated by 3GPP specifications for the IuCS and
IuPS interfaces.
From here on, a separate osmo-stp process is required for SCCP routing between
OsmoBSC / OsmoHNBGW <-> OsmoMSC / OsmoSGSN
jenkins.sh: build from libosmo-sccp and osmo-iuh master branches now for new
M3UA SIGTRAN.

When converting from GSM_PCHAN_PDCH, we should generate
a RSL channel number IE with the osmocom extension
RSL_CHAN_OSMO_PDCH rather than claiming it is a regular
TCH/F channel.
This is important as this function is used by
osmo-bts, too - and it decides which channel number IE is
put in the GSMTAP header for both GSMTAP tracing as well
as the GSMTAP based osmo-bts-virtual.
In order to avoid any unintended effect on libbsc,
we make sure to modify rsl_ipacc_pdch_activate() to
always use GSM_PCHAN_TCH_F in related RSL message.

We no longer permit timers with a 0 value, so this case can never

If we want to instruct the BTS to stop sending a given SI, we must be
able to send the respective BCCH INFO / SACCH FILLING with a header but
without any L3 data IE. This patch enables the related functions to do
this whenever their data argument points to NULL.

Disable large parts of the code that depend on BSC presence. The code sections
disabled by #if BEFORE_MSCSPLIT shall be modified or dropped in the course of
adding the A-interface.
Don't set msg->lchan nor msg->dst.
Don't use lchan in libmsc.
Decouple lac from bts.
Prepare entry/exit point for MSC -> BSC and MSC -> RNC communication:
Add msc_ifaces.[hc], a_iface.c, with a general msc_tx_dtap() to redirect to
different interfaces depending on the actual subscriber connection.
While iu_tx() is going to be functional fairly soon, the a_tx() is going to be
just a dummy for some time (see comment).
Add Iu specific fields in gsm_subscriber_connection: the UE connection pointer
and an indicator for the Integrity Protection status on Iu (to be fully
implemented in later commits).
Add lac member to gsm_subscriber_connection, to allow decoupling from
bts->location_area_code. The conn->lac will actually be set in iu.c in an
upcoming commit ("add iucs.[hc]").
move to libcommon-cs: gsm48_extract_mi(), gsm48_paging_extract_mi().
libmsc: duplicate gsm0808 / gsm48 functions (towards BSC).
In osmo-nitb, libmsc would directly call the functions on the BSC level, not
always via the bsc_api. When separating libmsc from libbsc, some functions are
missing from the linkage.
Hence duplicate these functions to libmsc, add an msc_ prefix for clarity, also
add a _tx to gsm0808_cipher_mode():
* add msc_gsm0808_tx_cipher_mode() (dummy/stub)
* add msc_gsm48_tx_mm_serv_ack()
* add msc_gsm48_tx_mm_serv_rej()
Call these from libmsc instead of
* gsm0808_cipher_mode()
* gsm48_tx_mm_serv_ack()
* gsm48_tx_mm_serv_rej()
Also add a comment related to msc_gsm0808_tx_cipher_mode() in two places.
Remove internal RTP streaming code; OsmoNITB supported that, but for OsmoMSC,
this will be done with an external MGCP gateway.
Remove LCHAN_MODIFY from internal MNCC state machine.
Temporarily disable all paging to be able to link libmsc without libbsc.
Skip the paging part of channel_test because the paging is now disabled.
Employ fake paging shims in order for msc_vlr_tests to still work.
msc_compl_l3(): publish in .h, tweak return value. Use new libmsc enum values
for return val, to avoid dependency on libbsc headers. Make callable from
other scopes: publish in osmo_msc.h and remove 'static' in osmo_msc.c
add gsm_encr to subscr_conn
move subscr_request to gsm_subscriber.h
subscr_request_channel() -> subscr_request_conn()
move to libmsc: osmo_stats_vty_add_cmds()
gsm_04_08: remove apply_codec_restrictions()
gsm0408_test: use NULL for root ctx
move to libbsc: gsm_bts_neighbor()
move to libbsc: lchan_next_meas_rep()
move vty config for t3212 to network level (periodic lu)
remove unneccessary linking from some tests
remove handle_abisip_signal()
abis_rsl.c: don't use libvlr from libbsc
gsm_subscriber_connection: put the LAC here, so that it is available without
accessing conn->bts. In bsc_api.c, place this lac in conn for the sake of
transition: Iu and A will use this new field to pass the LAC around, but in a
completely separate OsmoBSC this is not actually needed. It can be removed
again from osmo-bsc.git when the time has come.
Siemens MRPCI: completely drop sending the MRPCI messages for now, they shall
be added in osmo-bsc once the A-Interface code has settled. See OS#2389.

Original libvlr code is by Harald Welte <laforge@gnumonks.org>,
polished and tweaked by Neels Hofmeyr <nhofmeyr@sysmocom.de>.
This is a long series of trial-and-error development collapsed in one patch.
This may be split in smaller commits if reviewers prefer that. If we can keep
it as one, we have saved ourselves the additional separation work.
SMS:
The SQL based lookup of SMS for attached subscribers no longer works since the
SQL database no longer has the subscriber data. Replace with a round-robin on
the SMS recipient MSISDNs paired with a VLR subscriber RAM lookup whether the
subscriber is currently attached.
If there are many SMS for not-attached subscribers in the SMS database, this
will become inefficient: a DB hit returns a pending SMS, the RAM lookup will
reveal that the subscriber is not attached, after which the DB is hit for the
next SMS. It would become more efficient e.g. by having an MSISDN based hash
list for the VLR subscribers and by marking non-attached SMS recipients in the
SMS database so that they can be excluded with the SQL query already.
There is a sanity limit to do at most 100 db hits per attempt to find a pending
SMS. So if there are more than 100 stored SMS waiting for their recipients to
actually attach to the MSC, it may take more than one SMS queue trigger to
deliver SMS for subscribers that are actually attached.
This is not very beautiful, but is merely intended to carry us over to a time
when we have a proper separate SMSC entity.
Introduce gsm_subscriber_connection ref-counting in libmsc.
Remove/Disable VTY and CTRL commands to create subscribers, which is now a task
of the OsmoHLR. Adjust the python tests accordingly.
Remove VTY cmd subscriber-keep-in-ram.
Use OSMO_GSUP_PORT = 4222 instead of 2222. See
I4222e21686c823985be8ff1f16b1182be8ad6175.
So far use the LAC from conn->bts, will be replaced by conn->lac in
