First steps towards a new GTP hub. The aim is to mux GTP connections, so that
multiple SGSN <--> GGSN links can pass through a single point. Background:
allow having more than one SGSN, possibly in various remote locations.
The recent addition of OAP to GSUP is related to the same background idea.
(This is a collapsed patch of various changes that do not make sense to review
in chronological order anymore, since a lot of it has thorougly transmorphed
after it was first committed.)

Extend the ul/dl counting to count the usual messages on the
Gb interface. Add counters for the attach, routing area update,
pdp context activation and deactivation procedures. Update the
test result with the new counters.
RPM post-build-checks found some issue and marks these as error:
[ 38s] I: Program returns random data in a function
[ 38s] E: openbsc no-return-in-nonvoid-function meas_vis.c:118
Holger reports that the bitmap that accounts for available Osmux circuit
IDs is limited to 128, when the maximum number of circuit IDs are
determined by the uint8_t field in the header (ie. 256 circuits).
[hfreyther: Update the testcase now that we have more ids to allocate]
Trigger an OAP registration upon IPA connect. Feed incoming OAP messages to
oap_handle() and send replies returned by it.
Add oap_config to sgsn_config (todo: vty).

[hfreyther: Fix coding style]
Add new kitchen sink openbsc/utils.h and libcommon/utils.c to make three so far
static functions public (so I can use them in the upcoming OAP code).
A place to put them could have been the gprs_utils.h, but all general functions
in there have a gprs_ prefix, and todo markings to move them away. All other
libcommon headers are too specific, so I opened up this kitchen sink header.
Replace the implementation of encode_big_endian() with a call to
osmo_store64be_ext(). See comments.
Apply the change in Makefiles and C files.
This change has some implications for the test case. It manipulated
bss_ptmsi_state and sgsn_tlli_state variables to make the output of
rand_r() and thus the TLLI/TMSI used predictable.
This possibility is gone when using RAND_bytes() so instead it is
overridden by a function that returns a deterministic sequence of values
(0x00dead00, 0x00dead01, ...). The test cases are adapted to expect
these values instead of the pseudo random values before.
The gbproxy_test stdout file changes as well, but only where the
TLLI/TMSI is displayed (in the hex dumps as well as the TLLI cache
entries). All other output is the same.
This (currently empty) function is meant to contain code that cleans
up the left-overs of the test functions. This is needed by the next
commit to reset the RAND_bytes sequence.
Currently just the number of intercepted downlink messages is counted
and eventually checked. The contents of the messages is lost. The
PTMSI contained in ATTACH/RAU Accept messages is just 'guessed' by
resetting the random number generator after reference PTMSIs have
been generated. While this works with rand_r, RAND_bytes cannot be
forced to recreate a certain number sequence this way (unless the
backend is replaced).
This commit changes that behaviour so that the last received msgb is
kept and decoded. The PTMSI that has been assigned by the SGSN is
then taken in the affected test cases and used instead of a 'guessed'
one. This is similar to how a real MS would react to the Accept
message.

This API is a bit unfortunate as the caller will also
access the endpoint directly. E.g. like this:
output = bsc_mgcp_rewrite(...,
mgcp_net_src_addr(endp),
endp->net_end.local_port, -1,
In terms of "terminology" the "net" was meant to be bad
internet and the "bts" is the local and trusted network
segment. With this terminology the "bts" would be the
call-agent/MGW and "net" where the BSCs will send data
to but that is not the case and terminology actuallys
refers to:
* net: The addresses exposed to the entity that
made the MGCP call
* bts: The system where we get our data for the
local audio flow.
Fix the method but leave the API as it is. Use the net_end
in the net_src method and the bts_end in the bts_src method.
We put a signed integer into this string but did not account
for the newline and for the terminating NUL of the string. Add
the newline to the string and add one for NUL. Spotted while
accidently having a CID of 255.
There appears to be a leak of CIDs:
<000b> mgcp_osmux.c:544 All Osmux circuits are in use!
There are paths that a CID had been requested and never released
of the NAT. Remember the allocated CID inside the endpoint so it
can always be released. It is using a new variable as the behavior
for the NAT and MGCP MGW is different.
The allocated_cid must be signed so that we can assign outside
of the 0-255 range of it.
Fixes: OW#1493
Extend the osmux only setting from the MGCP MGW to the NAT. This
is applied when an endpoint is allocated and/or when the allocation
is confirmed by the remote system.
Not tested. The impact should only be when the new option is
being used.
Fixes: OW#1492
Some systems only want to use Osmux. In case only Osmux
should be used fail if it has not be offered/acked.

Verified On, Off and Only with X-Osmux: 3 and without this field.

Fixes: OW#1492
sizeof(uint8_t) == 1 and there is no need to create an array
with 16 bytes and then only use the first two of them. This
means the CID range is from 0 to 127 and we should be able
to extend this to 256 by changing the array size to 32. Update
the testcase now that we can have more than 16 calls with Osmux.
* Test that one can get an id
* That they are assigned predicatble right now
* That returning them will make the number of used ones go down
* That allocating more will fail
The log message does not help and says where the data is
being sent to. This is because we have both a RTP and RTCP
port. Remember if we failed with RTCP or RTP and improve
the log message.
I was searching a case where the port was bound to a local
address (e.g. 127.0.0.1) and tried to send the data to a
public one (e.g. 8.8.8.8).
The signature of mr_config and the BSC implementation didn't
match and the compiler was warning about it:
osmo_bsc_api.c:530:2: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type
.mr_config = bsc_mr_config,
^
osmo_bsc_api.c:530:2: warning: (near initialization for ‘bsc_handler.mr_config’)
Change the mr_config again and provide an implementation
that will set the ms and bts data structure. It would be
better to put the size outside of the IE but I am not going
to change it right now. It would also be nice to either move
the AMR setting into the "nitb" structure or have the msc
data be used _after_ the bts settings. This needs to be
cleaned up in the next step.
Manually verified by placing a MO call and checking that
both the channel mode modify and the mode modify request
contain the multi rate config with the rate mr config
(length two bytes, version 1, icmi==1, no start mode being
set).
This way a lot of if/else can just be killed by the caller deciding
which of the two instances to use.
I have copied both branches to new files, replace bts for ms in one
of them and ran diff on it. There is no difference.
Merge two copies into a local static helper function. The format
of the message will change and then it is easier to modify it in
one place than in two.
Sadly the original patch was merged before this clean-up so do
the clean-up as second step.

The pre-release didn't add a newline after the apn and the patching
pattern command. Create a quirk command that combines both. The
pre-release didn't include a differentation between routing and
patching.
The TLLI handling has a different and more generic name now. Make
it handle the old one that is actively used.
Add a file with the broken format and the standard config file
test should pick it up.
