Previous code creating a new line was really a workaroudn to have it
working while previous lines were being stacked internally inside
libosmo-abis.
Let's handle reference counts for the line properly and erase +
re-create it every time.
Recent patches to libosmo-abis fixed a crash happening when refcount
being 0 and destroying the object (object was not removed from a global
llist).

This function is only called during sign_link_up() e1inp callback, hence
only the link!=NULL condition (UP) is ever executed. Let's drop the DOWN
path and make it a function only used to trigger events when link
becomes up, similar to what bts_link_estab() does with OML.
Here it becomes clear the NM_EV_RSL_DOWN was never sent. It's not much
of an issue though since it would only make transition RCARRIER/BBTRANSC
Enabled->DisabledOffline. However, since due to libosmo-abis limitation
we receive a sign_link_down() for the entire line when 1 of its links
goes down, we don't care much since we go for shutdown of the entire BTS
anyway. Ideally, libosmo-abis would support simply telling us 1 of the
links in the line went down and if it was not OML and not RSL TRX==C0,
then we could keep on running and simply disable the related TRX.

This step is required while turning off the BTS without killing the
process. Right now only osmo-bts-trx supports this feature, so this
function is only available and used by osmo-bts-trx.

to this function to common place like bts_shutdown_fsm or alike.

In OML, if Set Attributes comes first for Channel object and then for
BTS object, BSIC will still not be set. Hence, when applying Channel
(TS) specific TSC, the code would compare against an unset value,
enabling use of TRXC extensions (which osmo-trx doesn't support)
without need for it, since actually the TSC of the TS matches the BSIC
of the BTS once both are set.
In order to fix it, don't check for the BSIC when receiving the OML
messages, but rather later when we apply the settings to the the lower
layers once trx_provision_fsm allows for it.

This way the PCU can signal idle RLCMAC blocks (no transmission

power reduction as needed by TRX.
The block with len=0 is submitted to lower layers up to the scheduler,

Get rid of this helper function, which is a remain of past epochs

This way it can be changed together with operative/availability state,
and changes announced to the BSC if present.
This commit presents no real change in osmo-bts behavior, since the only
place where adm_state is passed different than -1 is in
st_op_disabled_notinstalled_on_enter(), which is actually never called
(yet) since it's the initial state and no other states transition later
to it.
However, this will change in the future once we support re-connecting to
a (possibly different) BSC, which means objects will need to be moved to
that state to restart the whole OML install procedure on the new BSC.

Do not exit if all BSCs in the list fail to connect, keep trying
forever. This commit still doesn't change the logic after BTS has
successfully connected to a BSC. In that situation, if the link goes
down, BTS will exit in order to reset all state and let the user/system
restart it.

The pointer was used as "struct bsc_oml_host" sometimes, and other times
as "struct llist_head". It just worked because bsc_oml_host->list is the
first item in the script. The code was really confusing, also because
the bts list of items has a name really similar to the one currently
assigned. Let's rename the currently assigned address to "current_bsc",
store it always as "struct bsc_oml_host*" and finally use llist_entry
helpers when needed.
The related code is also moved to a helper function to enclose there the
logic to get next BSC in list. This change actually changes the logic
where a remote address is removed from VTY, since now the next address
in list is picked at the time, and later when reconnecting the list is
forwarded another time, meaning one address will be skipped.
This could be considered a bug, but this situation is really special
and anyway the entire logic will be changed in new commits where we'll
keep reconnecting in loop without exiting when reaching the end of the
list, so we are fine with it. Think of this commit as a preparation
commit for next ones.

This clarifies the different states and transitions between them:
OML LINK UP: CONNECTING->CONNECTED

TS 45.008 section 4.7.1:
"""
Upon receipt of a command from an SACCH to change its power level on the corresponding uplink channel, the MS

"""
Since the reported MS_PWR in L1 SACCH Header is, according to specs, the
one used for the last block of the previous SACCH period, it becomes
clear the first SACCH block after a requested MS Power Level change by
the network may contain mismatches between the announced MS_PWR by the
MS and the measured Rxlev/RxQual. Hence, let's better use a
P_CON_INTERVAL of 1 which retriggers the MS Power Control Loop every second

From TS 45.010 5.6.1 (delay tracking for circuit switched channels):
"""
Restricting the change in timing advance to 1 symbol period at a time
gives the simplest implementation of the BTS. However the BTS may use
a larger change than this but great care must then be used in the BTS design.
"""
In general 1 TA at a time (every 480ms of SACCH block) should be enough,
since section 5.6.3 states:
"""
The control loop for the timing advance shall be implemented in such a way that it will cope with MSs moving at a
speed up to 500 km/h
"""
Which is ~140 m/s, and 1 TA step around 500m, so most of the time we
should be save and no steps of more than 1 TA should be required.
However, unlikely changes from reflected to direct signal or vice versa
could produce higher increments, so let's increase the maximum step size
allowed to 2 in order to give more room.
Change-Id: I9e48faabf3090588233e274b2b39065cf85fbec7
First step improving and reworking TA loop:
Move trigger of the loop to similar place done by BS/MS Power Control
Loop, that is, upon receivial of UL SACCH block, which contains
information about the TA used to transmit the block encode in L1SACCH
Header. Hence, from computed received TOA and TA used when transmitting
from the MS, we can infer the desired TA to be used by the MS, which
will send back to it later during DL SACCH block.
The values taken are actually the ones calculated for the previous SACCH
block and stored in lchan->meas.ms_toa256. That's because L1SACCH
contains the TA used for the previous reporting period, similarly to
what's specified for MS Power Control loop (TS 45.008 sec 4.2):
"""
The MS shall confirm the power control level that it is currently employing
in the SACCH L1 header on each uplink channel. The indicated value shall
be the power control level actually used by the mobile for the last burst
of the previous SACCH period.
"""
(The reader may observe that currently this is not properly done for MS
Power Control loop when calling lchan_ms_pwr_ctrl(): this is a bug.)
This new method also permits changing TA quicker, since we have more
confidence that the TA we request is aligned with the one used to
transmit, and we don't simply increment/decrement based on the value we
request to transmit.

This commit extends existing MS Power Control Loop algorithm to take
into account computed C/I values on the UL, received from MS. The
related C/I parameters used by the algorithm are configured at and
provided by the BSC, which transmits them to the BTS similar to already
existing parameters.
Using C/I instead of existing RxQual is preferred due to extended
granularity of C/I (bigger range than RxQual's 0-7).
Furthermore, existing literature (such as "GSM/EDGE: Evolution and Performance"
Table 10.3) provides detailed information about expected target values,
even different values for different channel types. Hence, it was decided
to support setting different MS Power Parameters for different channel
types.
These MS Power Parameters are Osmocom specific, ie. supported only by
newish versions of osmo-bts. Older versions of osmo-bts should ignore
the new IEs added just fine. The new IEs containing the MS POwer
Parameters are not send for non osmo-bts BTSs, hence this commit is
secure with regards to running osmo-bsc against an ip.access BTS such

The BCCH carrier (sometimes called C0) of a BTS shall maintain
discontinuous Downlink transmission at full power in order to
stay 'visible' to the mobile stations. Because of that, early
versions of 3GPP TS 45.008 prohibited BS power reduction on C0.
However, in the recent 3GPP TS 45.008 there is a feature called
'BCCH carrier power reduction operation'. This is a special
mode of operation, where the variation of RF level for some
timeslots is relaxed for the purpose of energy saving.
In BCCH carrier power reduction operation, for timeslots on the
C0 carrier, except timeslots carrying BCCH/CCCH, the output power
may be lower than the output power used for timeslots carrying
BCCH/CCCH. In this case the maximum allowed difference in output
power actually transmitted by the BTS is 6 dB.
The power reduction operation can be controlled by the BSC by
sending BS POWER CONTROL on the A-bis/RSL with the Channel Number
IE set to 0x80 (RSL_CHAN_BCCH). This makes osmo-bts reduce the
transmission power on inactive timeslots of the BCCH carrier.
This is a non-standard, Osmocom specific extension, so indicate
support of this feature to the BSC in the feature vector. Also
add a VTY command to allow enabling/disabling the power reduction
locally. Add some signalling notes to the A-bis/RSL manual.
For more details, see 3GPP TS 45.008, section 7.1.

This new extension protocol is used to forward Osmocom PCUIF messages

It will be sent re-using the IPA multiplex of the OML link between
BSC and BTS. BTS is responsible for forwarding the message over the unix
socket to the PCU.
PCUIF existing RX path needs to be reworked in order to accept

Using the normal arithmetic for TDMA frame numbers may result
in getting wrong values. Consider the following situation:
'info_time_ind->fn' is 0 (beginning of period)
'bts->gsm_time.fn' is 2715647 (end of period)
With these input values the following expression:
info_time_ind->fn - bts->gsm_time.fn
will be equal to:
0 - 2715647 or -2715647
In this case osmo-bts does not log an error, because:
if (-2715647 > 0) // is false
As a consequence, we do not increment number of RACH slots that
have passed by since the last time indication:
for (i = 0; i < -2715647; i++) // is false

Each timeslot can have its own Training Sequence Code value, which
may optionally be included in the NM_MT_SET_CHAN_ATTR message sent
over the A-bis/OML. If it's not present, then the TSC value for a
timeslot is derived from the BCC part of BSIC, which is always
included in the NM_MT_SET_BTS_ATTR message.
On the TRXC interface, the BTS global TSC value is indicated to the
transceiver using either of the 'SETTSC' or 'SETBSIC' commands.
The transceiver then applies this value for all timeslots by default,
however it can be redefined for each timeslot individually using
additional arguments of the 'SETSLOT' command (see section 25.2.4.1
in the user manual [1] for more details).
Currently, trx_set_ts_as_pchan() sends TRX_PROV_EV_CFG_TSC to the
transceiver provisioning FSM, together with the per-timeslot TSC
value. This event causes the FSM to modify the global TSC value,
that is going to be or has already been sent to the transceiver.
This is wrong, the global TSC value shall not be overwritten.
Remove the TRX_PROV_EV_CFG_TSC, and include per-timeslot Training
Sequence Code and Set in the data structure that gets passed together
with the TRX_PROV_EV_CFG_TS instead. Implement handling of the

Currently, in bts_sched_fn() we send a Downlink burst to the PHY
immediately after calling the associated logical channel handler.
Together with the obvious performance advantages, this approach
imposes some serious limitations. The code has already become
quite complex with the introduction of the baseband frequency
hopping, and now it's not possible anymore to extend it further.
TRXD PDU batching, which is essential for VAMOS implementation,
requires us to make the scheduler more flexible at the expense of
increased memory consumption and additional CPU cycles. This patch
splits up Downlink burst scheduling into 3 main steps:
1. bts_sched_init_buffers(): initialization of per-TRX Downlink
burst buffers allocated by phy_instance_create(). For C0/TRX0
all timeslots are pre-initialized with dummy burst.
2. bts_sched_fn(): generating burst bits for all active lchans.
3. bts_sched_flush_buffers(): sending everything to the PHY.
This approach allows us to a) get rid of the ugly tail in bts_sched_fn()
that was responsible for sending dummy bursts on C0/TRX0; b) implement
the PDU batching and have several variants of bts_sched_flush_buffers()
providing the alternative batching approaches later on; c) implement
PDU merging for the upcoming shadow transceivers.

Together with the 'generic' structures which used to be shared between
osmo-bsc and osmo-bts some time ago, we also have the following
osmo-bts-trx specific structures (in hierarchical order):
- struct l1sched_trx (struct gsm_bts_trx),
- struct l1sched_ts (struct gsm_bts_trx_ts),
- struct l1sched_chan_state (struct gsm_lchan).
These structures are not integrated into the tree of the generic
structures, but maintained in a _separate tree_ instead. Until
recently, only the 'l1sched_trx' had a pointer to generic
'gsm_bts_trx', so in order to find the corresponding 'gsm_lchan' for
'l1sched_chan_state' one would need to traverse all the way up to
'l1sched_trx' and then tracerse another three backwards.
+ gsm_network
|
--+ gsm_bts (0..255)
|
--+ l1sched_trx --------------------> gsm_bts_trx (0..255)
| |
--+ l1sched_trx_ts --+ gsm_bts_trx_ts (8)
| |
--+ l1sched_chan_state --+ gsm_lchan (up to 8)
I find this architecture a bit over-complicated, especially given
that 'l1sched_trx' is kind of a dummy node containing nothing else
than a pointer to 'gsm_bts_trx' and the list of 'l1sched_trx_ts'.
In this path I slightly change the architecture as follows:
+ gsm_network
|
--+ gsm_bts (0..255)
|
--+ gsm_bts_trx (0..255)
|
--+ l1sched_trx_ts <----------------> gsm_bts_trx_ts (8)
| |
--+ l1sched_chan_state --+ gsm_lchan (up to 8)
Note that unfortunately we cannot 1:1 map 'l1sched_chan_state' to
'gsm_lchan' (like we do for 'l1sched_trx_ts' and 'gsm_bts_trx_ts')
because there is no direct mapping. The former is a higl-level
representation of a logical channel, while the later represents
one specific logical channel type like FCCH, SDCCH/0 or SACCH/0.
osmo-bts-virtual re-uses the osmo-bts-trx hierarchy, so it's also

In change [1] together with the actual implementation I introduced
a serious bug to bts_sched_fn(): if a timeslot is configured to use
frequency hopping, both 'pinst' and 'l1h' pointers are *overwriten*
in the inner loop, so the Downlink burst is re-directed to the
approproate PHY instance. However, if a subsequent timeslot is not
hopping, the Downlink burst would be re-directed to the wrong PHY
instance because both pointers were overwriten during a previous
iteration.
Let's move the 'struct phy_instance' pointer to the inner loop, so
it's properly re-initialized for each timeslot iteration.

Historically the logical channel handlers like rx_data_fn() used to accept
quite a lot of arguments. With the introduction of additional measurement
parameters it has become clear that we need to group the arguments into
structures. This is why both 'trx_{dl,ul}_burst_{req,ind}' structures

In change [1] I added the missing 'default' branch to the 'switch'
statement in lchan_tchmode_from_cmode(). This caused massive
regressions in ttcn3-bts-test, because osmo-bts started to NACK
some RSL CHANnel ACTIVation messages.
What caused a lot of regressions in ttcn3-bts-test is actually the
missing branch for RSL_CMOD_SPD_SIGN in the 'switch' statement.
It was not a problem before [1], because the 'default' branch was
not there. I was about to add the missing 'cause' when I realized
that this function needs to be reworked first...
First of all, lchan_tchmode_from_cmode() does a bit more than just
deriving RR (TS 44.018) channel mode from RSL (TS 48.058) channel
mode. It additionally stores the 'Speech or data indicator' to
the logical channel state, and also changes some global DTXd related
flags in 'struct gsm_bts'. Let's use a more precise name.
lchan_tchmode_from_cmode() -> rsl_handle_chan_mod_ie()
Together with renaming, it becomes logical to have the IE presence
check in rsl_handle_chan_mod_ie(), so that we can reduce code
duplication in the calling functions a bit.
Finally, the main problem is that coding and interpretation of the
6-th octet 'Speech coding algor./data rate + transp ind' depends on
the 4-th octet of the Channel Mode IE. We cannot handle all values
in one 'switch' statement without proper discrimination:
a) If octet 4 indicates Speech, then octet 6 shall be interpreted
as the GSM speech coding algorithm (FR, HR, AMR, etc.).
b) If octet 4 indicates Signalling, then octet 6 shall be set
to '00'O, because this is the only value defined in version
16.0.0 of 3GPP TS 48.058. All other values are reserved.
c) If octet 4 indicates Data, then octet 6 shall be interpreted
as CSD data rate further discriminated by service transparency.
Therefore, we need take both values into account. This can be
achieved by mixing them together using the bitwise operators,
just like we do in L1SAP code.

In [1] I introduced a regression, so osmo-bts started to complain:
This PHY does not support lchan TSC 3 != BSIC-TSC 7
on channel activation, despite the TSC in RSL_IE_CHAN_IDENT was 7.
The problem is that this statement:
cd = (const struct gsm48_chan_desc *) TLVP_VAL(tp, RSL_IE_CHAN_IDENT) + 1;
is basically equivalent to:
cd = ((const struct gsm48_chan_desc *) TLVP_VAL(tp, RSL_IE_CHAN_IDENT)) + 1;
so we actually shift the pointer by sizeof(struct gsm48_chan_desc)
and skip 3 octets instead of just one (IEI octet). Fix this.

As the prefix in 'GSM48_IE_CHANDESC_2' implies, this IE belongs
to 3GPP TS 04.08 (or TS 44.018), so it can be used in the Radio
Resource assignment messages sent to the MS. While in this
function we're dealing with 3GPP TS 48.058, and thus the IEI
may be (and actually is) different for the RSL messages.
Also, according to 3GPP TS 48.058, section 9.3.5, the Channel
Description IE is included together with its element identifier,
so we need to skip one byte when doing the pointer casting.

If for whatever reason it fails to initialize the TRXD or TRXC
interface, trx_phy_inst_open() would return an error. This
would cause bts_model_phy_link_open() to call trx_if_close()
on each of the PHY links, including those that were never
opened. This leads to a segfault in trx_if_close().
Make sure that in trx_if_init() we properly init 'struct trx_l1h',
so it's safe to call trx_if_close() at any time and in any state.

The measurement results / TCH indications that are handed when decoding
the TCH/H are off by two bursts. Since a measurement result / TCH block
is expected every two bursts anyway the problem can only be noticed when
a FACCH transmission is going on and the frame numbers of the BFI TCH
blocks appear to be missaligned towards the FACCH block.
The reason is that the incoming bursts are shifted into a 6 burst wide
buffer. The decoding functions always look at the beginning of that
buffer while the bursts are shifted into the buffer from the end. A
facch will always fit exactly in that buffer but TCH/H blocks are only
4 bursts wide and thereofre they need two additional bursts until they
reach the coverage of the decoding function. Lets fix this by putting
the correct frame number (from two bursts before) into the remap
functions in order to get the correct beginning of the block.
Since the FACCH transmission uses six blocks it takes out two TCH
blocks. This means that if we count the FACCH block we end up with a gap
of one TCH voice block. Lets generate a dummy measurement to compensate
the gap. This will also match the behavior of the osmo-bts-sysmo phy.

By reordering the instruction, we scheduler the timerfd prior to
processing the FN on the upper layers. This means the first timerfd
expiration even will happen more inline with the expected time, that is,
CLOCK IND time + GSM_TDMA_FN_DURATION_nS.
Let T(trx_sched_fn) be the time spent executing function trx_sched_fn().
With previous order, the timerfd would have been scheduled later, which
in the end would mean expiration would happen at time CLOCK_IND +
GSM_TDMA_FN_DURATION_nS + T(trx_sched_fn), hence ending up with an extra
skew of T(trx_sched_fn) added by ourselves.
This extra skew added may be important specially at startup time (when
this code path is used), since usually the load in the system is high
and skew is usually already higher, which means helping crossing
unacceptable thresholds which may end up in osmo-bts-trx stopping with
"No clock from osmo-trx" reason.

It can happen that the first burst we receive after enabling the PDCH
channel (when PCU connects to the BTS) is bid!=0. As a result,
chan_state->ul_first_fn is never set and defautl value 0 in there is
passed to the upper layers. As a result, when the 2nd block is
transmitted, this time with correct FN, the PCU will see a huge jump in
FNs. Since in PDCH the bursts are always consecutive, let's simply use
bi->fn - 3 as a first_fn and be done with the issue.

quite often and takes 0.27% of the CPU. A more detailed look reveals
that it's indirectly called by fill_paging_type_1() in order to fill
the remaining octets with constant '2B'O padding.
Let's optimize this function:
- use memset() for padding *before* writing optional P1 Rest Octets;
- conditionally initialize the bit vector for P1 Rest Octets;
- use designated initializers instead of memset().
It's generally better to avoid using bitvec_fill() when using memset()
