Since it is planned to use struct gsm_subscriber to manage subscriber
data in the SGSN, this file which contains the generic subscriber
related methods is moved to libcommon.

Currently libcommon depends on libbsc, because gsm_network_init
(libcommon/gsm_data.c) directly calls gsm_net_update_ctype
(libbsc/gsm_04_08_utils.c).
This patch moves gsm_network_init to a new file libbsc/net_init.c.

Currently the sign_link pointer is dereferenced after a call to
osmo_signal_dispatch, which can indirectly call
e1inp_sign_link_destroy. If that happens, accessing *sign_link is
illegal and can lead to a segmentation violation.
Since only the bts pointer is needed from sign_link after the call to
osmo_signal_dispatch, this patch changes abis_nm_rcvmsg_fom to save
that pointer to a local variable earlier.

In case a BTS is being bootstrapped and one TS can not be
activated prevent the whole BTS from coming up.
When the OML activation is not being done the rest of the BSC
code still assumes these logical channel(s) to be available
and one will see channel activation issues that might be hard
to debug.
Instead of having a half-configured system up and running,
keep the BTS offline.
As bsc_ctrl_node_lookup() is called for each iteration,
the variables 'bts' and 'trx' are no longer static accross multiple
calls, which means we need a different way to determine if we are in the
right node while matching for a trx or a ts.
Now that the bulk of the control interface node lookup has
no reference to the BSC specific data structures, we are
moving it into libosmocore.
A control interface user now only registers an optional small
node lookup function like bsc_ctrl_node_lookup()
The idea here is that bsc_ctrl_cmd_handle now has no dependency
at all to the BSC related data structures and thus can actually become
part of libctrl.
The new function bsc_ctrl_node_lookup however will remain bsc-specific.
Send a non-call related SS message for an active call indentified
by the CIC of that call. As an ugly hack the order of the SS
release and the invocation are changed. That was necessary for the
E71 on a TCH. The time between notify and release was just too short.
The right would be to wait for the returnResultLast but this would
involve keeping more local state. Let's see how far we get here. It
might be necessary to change the order in the other call sites as
well.
Timing advance is stored inside lchan structure, so it is removed from
arguments. This is useful, if other actions are required prior calling
rsl_chan_activate_lchan. (like deactivating PDCH first)
The "shifted TA value" that is required by BS11 is now calculated inside
rsl_chan_activate_lchan and not by each user.
[Rebased by Holger. So some hunks were skipped as the patch
depended on Jolly's HO code]
In case we receive ERROR INDICATION and CONNECTION FAILURE we only
want to RF Channel Release the lchan once. This code is more simple
and should work as reliable as the previous commit.
When we receive an ERROR INDICATION and CONNECTION FAILURE we
might call rsl_rf_chan_release multiple times. The channel release
handling is still a bit messy and there too many paths that lead
to the call.
1.) In case we receive an ERROR INDICATION for SAPI=3. A RLL
error signal will be emitted that leads to the release of the
channel through the SMS code in case of the NITB. The call to
rsl_rf_chan_release might be a double release.
2.) In case a CONNECTION FAILURE is received when the release
process has already been started we would unconditionally
call rsl_rf_chan_release as well.
Because the lchan state is changed by the callers of the
rsl_rf_chan_release we can not move the state checking into this
code but need to do it in the caller. The issue was seen in a trace
from Rhizomatica and I created the DoubleRelease.st to re-produce
the issue and verified that we have no duplicate RF Channel Releses.
The other option would be to introduce a new state to track
the release process and see if we have already released SAPIs
deactivated the SACCH or such. We can not simply look at these
as for a channel that fails to activate they will be null already.
Looking at the code it seemed possible that a channel would
transition from BROKEN to NONE. Or worse from NONE to BROKEN.
Start the timer _after_ the channel has been released.
I'm not entirely sure if this is the best approach. However,
there are phones that send a RACH request for TCH/F on MO calls, even
though they actually do support TCH/H channels.
Currently, if a CTRL method does not set the reply, an error is
logged ("cmd->reply has not been set"). It even complains when the
function implementing the command returns CTRL_CMD_HANDLED, where
a reply text is not needed.
This patch changes the logging level from ERROR to NOTICE. The logging
is now only done, when the retry has not been set and the
implementation returns either CTRL_CMD_ERROR or CTRL_CMD_REPLY. So
in these cases the reply field must be set.
This fixes the generation of log messages when doing NAT ctrl command
forwarding.

This is mostly based on Alexander's migration code. The code
adds transaction handling and some sanity checks and cleanups
to the code. We made the decision to fork the sms_from_result
method and freeze it to that version. This way sms_from_result
can move forward without having to deal with legacy.
Given that the method is only called for a traffic channels the
missing breaks didn't hurt.

For GPRS the look-up via bts/trx does not make any sense and would
introduce bad depdencies for the SGSN. Move the look-up code to a
new file and introduce new setup methods.
The interface can be accessed through CTRL and a socket. But currently
it is only available when the socket interface has been configured.
Create the interface all the time but only listen on the socket when
a path has been specified.
E1 based BTS use TRAU muxer to decode TRAU frames. After changing
channel from one timeslot to another (due to handover or assignment),
the TRAU muxer must be updated. The call reference of the call is
disconnected from the old channel and connected to the new channel.
We don't want every caller to check for ts->tsc == -1 and then
using ts->trx->bts->tsc instead. Rather, introduce a new inline
function to retrieve the correct value.

Currently the encoding of the chan_list is done by a hard-coded
sequence of macros that closely resembles figure 10.5.16 in
3GPP TS 04.08.
This patch replaces this by an algorithmic solution that can be used
for all range encodings and is based on the property
W(2^i) to W(2^(i+1)-1) are on w1_len-i bits when present
(see section 10.5.2.13 in TS 04.08).

f0 is currently set to arfcns[0] in range_enc_determine_range(),

if this encoding is used. This way the case distinction in
range_enc_filter_arfcns() is not longer necessary.

This option is a workarround for a bug found in Nokia InSite BTS firmware
version 3.0.0. There is no RELease CONFirm message for local end release.
Nokia MetroSite with firmware version 4.178.16 is not affected.
TS 04.06 Chapter 5.4.4.4 "Local end release procedure" states that a
confirm must be sent by layer 2 when receiving a local end release
request.
In order to correctly switch a channel (handover or assignment), local
end release is required.
Sylvain pointed out that the RLL and the SMC timeout is the same.
This can lead to have a SMC re-transmission before the first RLL
Establish Request has timed out. Reduce the RLL timeout. GSM 08.58
does not specify a timeout so right now I just reduce it to seven
seconds.

This prevents the application from crashing when there is a half
configured BTS (e.g. by using the command 'bts 1' when there isn't
a BTS 1) and the 'write' command is used.
It was possible to cause a crash by enabling and disabling the
MSC connection. The enabling lead to scheduling a connection
and the second call was not stopping the timer.
Assign a static name to a MSC Connection and use it. In case there
are multiple connections we can now more easily identify them.
This is only used for the NAT right now, the BSC could start to
name the various MSC connections too.
Add bsc_install_default() and replace all install_default()
This patch adds bsc_install_default() which calls install_default()
and add 'exit' and 'end'. All other calls to install_default() are
replaced by calls to bsc_install_default().
Since 'exit' and 'end' are now added automatically to each node, the
explicit registrations of these commands are removed by this patch,
too.
The related tests succeed now without work-arounds (except for the
'config' node itself which is part of libosmocore).
It was possible that the wrong NSEI information was sent to the
BTS. This is because patch_nm_tables is not called before sending
the data to the BTS. This will break when two BTS connect more or
less at the same time.
Stop using the arrays directly and instead introduce a method
that will patch the table and return the data and length. This
makes sure that all users patch the table before we send the
data to the BTS.
I bootstrapped a sysmoBTS and I can bring up rsl. The device is

Disable the periodic LU using "no periodic location update" VTY
command. In that case set the expire_lu to 0 which will then be
translated to a NULL in the database layer. This leads to a bit of
copy and paste in the db_sync_subscriber method but I don't see
how we could easily use 'datetime(%i, 'unixepoch')' and 'NULL'
at the same time.
Change the query to find expired queries to check for NOT NULL
and the time being in the past. This means if there are still
old subscribers in the database they might not be expired. One
would need to execute a query like "UPATE Subscriber SET expire_lu
= 0 WHERE expire_lu is null". The same applies when disabling the
periodic LU. One would need to update the database by hand.
Manual tests executed/passed:
1.) periodic LU enabled:
* use gst LUTest.st to do a LU
* UPDATE Subscriber SET expire_lu=datetime('now');
* observe the subscriber being expired (it was)
2.) periodic LU disabled:
* use gst LUTest.st to do a LU
* verify that the expire_lu is NULL in the database

A channel that fails to send an ACK/NACK/REL within the four second
timeout is now marked as broken. In case the release comes in late
it will be ignored. The lchan should already been freed and for now
we don't want to trust the channel.
In the future we might want to send a "release" for a channel that
got activated ack late and just set the state to none on a channel
that is released acked late.
The late ACK and REL has been tested with two manual tests using the
fakebts. The channels remained blocked even after having received
the ACK message here. The NACK case has not been manually tested.
Assume that there is a bsc_gsmnet and modify the ipaccess-config to
provide this symbol. If a bsc_gsmmnet is not available when linked
the linker will complain and fail.
E.g. give an error like this:
../../src/libbsc/libbsc.a(bts_ipaccess_nanobts.o): In function `ipaccess_sign_link_up':
src/libbsc/bts_ipaccess_nanobts.c:550: undefined reference to `bsc_gsmnet'
Make sure that the bts_ipa_nm_sig_cb is only installed once. In
a nanoBTS + sysmoBTS network the _start method will be called
for each mode leading to the handler being registered twice.
Make sure that there is only one handler registered by unregistering
a previously installed handler. The osmo_signal_unregister_handler
will remove 0 or 1 handlers per invocation and we only add one
handler in this file so it is always balanced.
The nanoBTS code is trying to find a struct gsm_bts based on
the ipaccess_gsmnet and the ipaccess_unit data. The pointer is
not initialized in the case of a sysmoBTS leading to a classic
NULL pointer dereference.
Move the feature init into the _init method. This way we can
re-use the start code of the nanoBTS. This ensures that the
ipaccess_gsmnet pointer is properly initialized and that the
signal handlers are installed.
This patch adds a new VTY command "ip.access rsl-ip A.B.C.D" at the
BTS level. If you set this IP address, the BTS will be instructed to
establish the RSL link to the indiciated IP address, rather than using
the same as for the OML link (default).
Use "ip.access rsl-ip 0" to disable the feature.
Inside the SI1 rest_octets we will need to indicate if the ARFCN
is band 1800 or 1900. If the BTS is either 850 or 1900 we assume
we are running a PCS network, otherwise it is a DCS network.
The band indicator is not documented in GSM 04.08 but it is in the
GSM 05.14 version 6.1.0 Release 1997.

The paging structure is still initialized lazily and we attempt
to traverse it before it is ready. The crash was discovered by
Katerina. Removing the lazy initialization will take a bit of work
as the gsm_data_shared is used by the osmo-bts and the OpenBSC but
paging is different.
Katerina pointed out that some nodes are not fully documented and
proposed some messages. The token/timeout messages were correct, I
have modified the other messages. I removed the full-stop from the
PING/PONG documentation as we are normally not using a full sentence.
The message was corrupt at several points. They are fixed now and
successfully tested.
A default T3122 timer value of 10 is defined by default now. If set to 0,
the reject message will not be sent. Note that when using existing configs
with T3122 value set to 0.
The RF lock excluded BTS was not paged at all. Now forward the
paging message to the handler and call a function that will check
if this LAC can be paged right now. Introduce a new paging method
that allows to page on a dedicated bts, refactor the code to use
this method for paging.
For PCS1900 the SI1 does not contain the ARFCN of the serving cell.
This is because the arfcn2band method will return GSM_BAND_1800 and
not GSM_BAND_1900. The academic fix would be to set the ARFCN_PCS bit
but this would require increasing the bitvector sizes from 1024/8 to
(0x8000 + 1024) / 8. This would increase the storage size for each
bitvector by three.
It is not possible to have DCS1800 and PCS1900 in one network so we
can avoid increasing the memory usage and check if the ARFCN resolved
to 1800 and then check if the BTS is a 1900 BTS and then claim that
this is compatible.
The code predates the TLV parser and we were parsing the RLM from the
wrong offset. In general we were using the length of the TLV which
happened to be equal to the T200 indication.
After consulting the RLM cuases not every of them should generate a
BSC_RLLR_IND_ERR_IND as these are forwarded to the MSC as a SAPI reject
right now.
TLV parsing now generates this due a bug in the osmo-bts code:
