The BTS layer needs to inform the handover code when an access
burst has been received. In turn the handover layer will ask the
bts to modify the channel, it will schedule the physical information
inform the BSC with the HANDOVER DETECTION and waits for the BTS
layer to inform it about the first received frame to stop a timer.
This patch implements merging of IMMEDIATE ASSIGN REJECT messages as
suggested in GSM 08.58, 5.7. When a new IMM.ASS.REJ is to be appended
to the AGCH queue and the last message in that queue is of the same
type, the individual entries (up to 4 per message) of both messages
are extracted, combined and stored back. If there are less than 5
entries, all entries fit into the old message and the new one is
discarded. Otherwise, the old message will contain 4 entries and the
remaining ones are stored into the new one which is then appended to
the queue.

Currently, the AGCH queue length is not limited. This can lead to
large delays and network malfunction if there are many IMM.ASS.REJ
messages.
This patch adds two features:
- Don't accept msgs from the RSL layer when the queue is way too
full (safety measure, mainly if bts_ccch_copy_msg() is not being
called by the L1 layer, currently hard coded to 1000 messages)
- Selectively drop IMM.ASS.REJ from the queue output depending on the
queue length

This patch extends paging_gen_msg() by adding an output parameter
is_empty that is true, if only a paging message with dummy entries
has been placed into buffer. This feature is then used by
bts_ccch_copy_msg() to insert an AGCH message if is_empty is true.

The first test checks the AGCH may queue length computation.
The second test fills the queue by calling bts_agch_enqueue() with a
mix of IMM.ASS and IMM.ASS.REJ. Then it drains the queue by calling
bts_ccch_copy_msg(). After each of both steps, statistics are printed
out.

When cross-compiling osmo-bts/osmo-pcu one can not easily
execute the testsuite. By adding the OSMO_QEMU variable in
front of the normal execution we can execute the tests. This
should work for native and cross builds.
$ OSMO_QEMU="qemu-arm -L /opt/poky/1.1.2/sysroots/armv5te-poky-linux-gnueabi/" make check
libosmoabis has a BTS-side implementation of the IPA protocol for years,
and osmo-bts should have used that all the time. Unfortunately it had
its own local hack, this patch is migrating to the libosmocore
implementation.
During development one switches from GSM900 to GSM1800 and GSM850 to
GSM1900. This commit attempts to make this switch more easy.
GSM1800 and GSM1900 have overlapping ARFCNs. This means that the
mapping from bands to arfcn is not injective. Because of that I
removed the code to deduce the band from the ARFCN. This was done
in commit 8c3d807b3f. The auto-band
option allows to move between GSM900/GSM1800 and GSM850/GSM1900.
Add a simple testcase with these auto-band configurations.
Issue the RfDeactivate.REQ before sending the MphClose.REQ. Ideally
we would issue MphClose.REQ after the RfDeactivate.CNF but this is
not possible right now.
The current approach makes the following warning of the DSP go away
on shutdown. This was tested with my E71 and an active silent-call
using a SDCCH.
DSP Warning:
[ERROR] : DeviceMng_ValidateL1Handle() => Invalid layer 1 handle
This was found and debugged by Sylvain. The BTS will always support
A5/0 so we do not keep track of that, the first bit of the flags is
used for A5/1, second for A5/2... but for RSL there is an offset to
go from RSL to A5(x). Add a testcase and change the code.
This file is created in ./configure so we shouldn't remove it with make.
Otherwise ./configure && make clean && make check fails
with:
make[3]: *** No rule to make target `atconfig', needed by `check-local'.
Stop.
Right now osmo-bts requires access to one OpenBSC header file and
this requires that openbsc and osmo-bts git are in the same directory.
Begin with making the location of the OpenBSC sourcecode configurable.
This approach will allow to build osmo-bts on our Jenkins installation
but now has the risk of more code including the openbsc/*.h header files.
The unit test created and used the paging request in the same
second and was passing because of that. Add a second test with
a delay to force now to not be equal to the expiration time.
Check that adding a paging command works, check that it is expired
after the first call to paging_gen_msg. The test will be extended
to test the scheduling and selection of the various paging messages.
