At the moment the PCU has no way of knowing with which BTS model it is
used with. However, some BTS models may require slightly different
behaviour by the PCU, depending on which BTS model is used. So, lets add
an additional bts_model field to struct gsm_pcu_if_info_ind in order to
convey the exact BTS model to the PCU.

The PCUIF flag PCU_IF_FLAG_SYSMO was originally used by osmo-bts-sysmo
to signal to the PCU that the direct PHY access for the sysmo-bts DSP
should be enabled. With time, support for other BTS models was added and
the flag became a synonym for "direct PHY access", so it makes sense to
rename it to "PCU_IF_FLAG_DIRECT_PHY"

In PCUIF v.11 we use PCU_IF_SAPI_AGCH_2 exclusively. We use this SAPI
to transfer IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT messages for uplink and downlink. In
both cases we send a confirmation back to the PCU. For details see
coresponding patch in osmo-pcu.git (see Depends)
CAUTION: This patch breaks compatibility to current master osmo-pcu (See

The PCU now sets a confirm flag in struct gsm_pcu_if_pch in case the MAC
block (data) requires a confirmation when sent. Use this confirm flag
instead of making the decision locally based on the MAC block contents.

Since we now no longer refer to TLLI when we mean "message ID" (msg_id),
we should also remove the "_DT" / "_dt" suffix from structs and define
constants and replace it with "_2" if required.

The struct gsm_pcu_if_data_cnf_dt was added when the first experiments
mit Ericsson RBS base stations were made. It is essentially a copy of
gsm_pcu_if_data, where the mamber "data" was replaced with a member
"msg_id" (which was originally called "tlli"). Since we didn't know
back then which parameters we would still need at some later point we
kept all the other parameters. However, to this day we never used the
parameters below fn. Even fn was only used for logging purposes, but is
now also unused.
Let's remove all those unused members.
(Since all removed members are at the tail of the struct,
compatibility with other programs that use the PCUIF should not break.)

To confirm downlink IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT messages, we use the TLLI as an
identifier and the related struct member is also called "tlli".
Unfortunately this is misleading since the message identifier does not
necessarly have to be a TLLI. It is just an implementation detail that
osmo-pcu uses the TLLI as a message identifier.
To make that clear, lets rename the tlli member (and variable and
parameter names where it is passed on) to "msg_id".
(Since this change only renames variables and struct members it will not
break compatibility with other programs that use the PCUIF)

OsmoBTS still uses the deprecated version 10 of the PCUIF protocol.
OsmoPCU is still compatible to version 10, but to maintain a clean
interface it is planned to drop the support for version 10 in the near
future.
Moving to PCUIF v.11 essentially means using the "Direct TLLI" method to
convey IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT and also PAGING COMMAND messages through the
PCU socket. This means in particular that we use a TLLI as an identifier
to confirm IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT messages towards the PCU (PAGING COMMAND
is not confirmed at all). Also we now use struct gsm_pcu_if_pch_dt to
parse the incoming PCU_IF_SAPI_PCH_DT, which is much cleaner than using
offsets in a buffer.

The PDCH multiframe contains 48 data slots, 2 PTCCH slots, and
2 IDLE slots. The later two can be used for the interference
measurements, since the UEs shall not transmit on them.
bts_report_interf_meas() is called every 104 TDMA frames, what
corresponds to 2 PDCH multiframe periods. Report interference
levels on PDCH timeslots from this function.

Since there can be multiple PDCH channels configured on different
timeslots, different TRXes, and BTSes, the PTCCH/U handling code
in OsmoPCU needs to know the exact origin of a given RACH.ind.
Otherwise, it is not known which subscriber originated a given
PTCCH/U indication, and hence it is impossible to send PTCCH/D
Timing Advance notification properly.
Fortunately, we can extend the RACH.ind message without even
bumping the protocol version, because every single PDU has a
fixed size defined by the largest message - INFO.ind. In case
if the actual message payload is smaller, the rest is filled
with a constant padding byte (0x00).
Older versions of OsmoPCU will consider the new fields as padding,
while the messages from older OsmoBTS versions will always have
both fields set to 0x00. Since C0/TS0 cannot be configured to
PDCH, this can be easily detected on the other end.

All MS/UE must be notified of ETWS Primary Notifiations.
Depending on their state, the notification goes different paths:
* CS dedicated mode: BSC sends it as L3 message over LAPDm / DCCH
* CS/PS idle mode: BTS sends paging messages on PCH
* PS TBF active: PCU send Packet Application Info
This enables the last of the three methods by passing any
ETWS Primary Notifications received over RSL via the PCU socket into
the PCU.

As specified in 3GPP TS 03.60 Section 16.2.1 and 44.018 Section 3.4.15,
a Class B MS is sending a "RR GPRS SUSPEND REQ" via a DCCH to the BTS if
it wants to suspend GPRS services. The BSS is now responsible to
somehow forward this to the SGSN. As the Gs interface between BSC and
SGSN is both optional and doesn't have any provision to forward this
message, we have to send it over to the PCU so it can use regular BSSGP
signaling to inform the SGSN of the SUSPEND REQUEST.

Record the mnc_3_digits flag from SI and pass on via the PCU interface.
Instead of changing to e.g. osmo_plmn_id, add the flag separately, and instead
of bool use a uint8_t, to not raise any struct packing issues and clarify the
flag's size beyond any doubt.

I had accidently bumped the version as I thought that osmo_ph_pres_info_type
was part of the ABI. It is not an only internal to the BTS. Revert
this part of the change.
Previously osmo-bts-octphy have not provided in-band presence
information which cause off-by-one errors and misinterpretation of
ph_data_ind by PCU. This fixed now by adding support for explicitly
passing PH-DATA presence info. Corresponding check and in-band passing
of presence information are removed.
Note: this requires libosmocore version with osmo_ph_pres_info_type
support integrated.
