We assume that it's legal to have dangling PHY instances that are
not associated with any TRX instances in the configuration file.
Obviously, such PHY instances have pinst->trx set to NULL.
The DSP based models seem to handle dangling PHY instances without
any problems, so let's ensure that we always check pinst->trx
against NULL in the osmo-bts-{trx,virtual} specific code.

Fixes: CID#236092 "Dereference before null check"
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
affected by this change.

lower layer specific APIs require first to enable the TRX object
(GsmL1_PrimId_MphInitReq, which requires ARFCN received during Set
Radio Carrier Attributes) before enabling the per-TS structure.
Hence, OPSTART must happen in RCARRIER MO before OPSTART can be sent to
the Radio Channel MOs, otherwise the initialization of the TS objet will
fail and OPSTART for the RadioChannel MO will send back a NACK.
In order to avoid this, we need to keep the RadioChannel MO announced as
"Disabled Dependency" until RCARRIER is OPSTARTed.

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
were introduced.
However, both channel type and burst ID were kept untouched, so until
now we had them being passed between the scheduler functions here and
there. This change is a logical conclusion of the original change
mentioned above.
As a part of this change, the new LOGL1SB() macro is introduced. It
does accept a pointer to 'trx_{dl,ul}_burst_{req,ind}' and expands the
context information for the old LOGL1S() macro.

gsm_bts_trx_alloc() already does initialize some fields of the
allocated 'struct gsm_bts_trx' instance, and having an additional
function for initializing the other fields makes no sense.
Note that I intentionally didn't merge a call to bts_model_trx_init()
into gsm_bts_trx_alloc(), because this would break some assumptions
regarding the order of initialization and cause regressions.
This also allows us to not call bts_model_trx_init() from tests.

First of all, there is no reason to use a void pointer because
it's always 'struct phy_instance'. Also, no need to encapsulate

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.

In change [1] the new power control structures and default params
were introduced. In change [2], the existing VTY commands for MS
power control in the BTS were deprecated and changed to use the
new structures as storage. Finally, in change [3], handling of
the power control parameters on the A-bis/RSL was implemented.
This change is the final logical step in the mentioned chain: it
makes both MS/BS power control loops use the new parameters, and
removes the old structures. The actual implementation of both
power control loops remains the same, however the expected output
of some unit tests for the Downlink loop needs to be changed:
- TC_fixed_mode: disabling dynamic power control becomes a separate
step of the test script since the field 'fixed' is removed;
- TC_rxlev_target: RxLev thresholds are printed 'as-is'.
Not all of the new parameters are used by the power control loops
yet. Further improvements to be done in the follow up commits.

We already have MS Power Control, which according to 3GPP 45.008
shall be implemented in the MS to minimize the transmit power in
the Uplink direction. The BS Power Control may optionally be
implemented by the network side for the same purpose.
Using Downlink signal measurements reported by the MS, the BSS
(either BSC, or BTS) may control Downlink attenuation in a way
that the transmit power remains as low as possible, or remains
in a specific range corresponding to good RxLev values on the
MS side. This change implements autonomous BS Power Control,
that can optionally be enabled by the BSC.
BS Power Control re-uses parts of the MS Power Control code,
so all parameters can be configured in the same way - via the
VTY interface or a configuration file. This basically means
that features like hysteresis and EWMA based filtering are
also available for BS Power Control.
The only difference is that RxQual values higher than 0 would
trigger the logic to reduce the current attenuation twice.
Note that one of the unit tests ('TC_rxlev_max_min') fails,
as the power step limitations for raising and lowering look
wrong to me, and the related discussion is still ongoing.

This allows keeping state consistent and offloading logic from each bts
backend, since they are only required to submit events now.

Recently we've introduced EWMA based uplink power filtering, that
should reduce Uplink power oscillations. However, the power loop
is still quite sensitive to small deviations from the target power
level: even such an insignificant deviation like 2-5 dBm triggers
the loop to increase or decrease the MS power level. Even if the
EWMA based filtering is enabled with 80% smoothing (alpha = 0.2).
This change introduces a new configuration parameter - 'hysteresis':
uplink-power-target <-110-0> hysteresis <1-25>
that together with the 'uplink-power-target' defines a range:
[target - hysteresis .. target + hysteresis]
in which the MS power loop would not trigger any power changes.
This feature is now *enabled* by default, so given that:
- default 'uplink-power-target' is -75 dBm, and
- default 'hysteresis' is 3 dBm,
the default target Uplink power range is: -78 dBm ... -72 dBm.

So far the Uplink power control loop did not filter the Uplink RSSI
measurements (reported by the BTS) at all. The lack of filtering
makes our implementation too quick on the trigger, so in the real
deployments there will be unneeded Tx power oscillations.
In order to reduce this effect, let's implement a very simple EWMA
(also known as Single Pole IIR) filtering that is defined as follows:
Avg[n] = a * Pwr[n] + (1 - a) * Avg[n - 1]
where parameter 'a' determines how much weight of the latest UL RSSI
measurement result 'Pwr[n]' carries vs the weight of the average
'Avg[n - 1]'. The value of 'a' is usually a float in range 0 .. 1, so:
- value 0.5 gives equal weight to both 'Pwr[n]' and 'Avg[n - 1]';
- value 1.0 means no filtering at all (pass through);
- value 0.0 makes no sense.
This formula was further optimized with the use of '+=' operator.
The floating point math was also eliminated by scaling everything
up (by 100). For more details, see:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_averagehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-pass_filter#Simple_infinite_impulse_response_filterhttps://tomroelandts.com/articles/low-pass-single-pole-iir-filter
The EWMA filtering is now *enabled by default*, but can be disabled
or (re-)configured over the VTY at any time:
! Completely disable filtering
no uplink-power-filtering
! Enable EWMA smoothing with the given parameters
uplink-power-filtering algo ewma beta <1-99>
Note that the VTY command expects 'beta' instead of 'alpha':
alpha = (100 - beta)
and the value must be in %. This is done for simplicity:
1% means lowest smoothing,
99% means highest smoothing.
Let's say we have EWMA filtering enabled with alpha = 0.4, and get
-98 dBm on the input, while the last output value was -60 dBm.
The new output would be:
Avg[n] = 0.4 * Pwr[n] + 0.6 * Avg[n - 1]
Avg[n] = (0.4 * -98) + (0.6 * -60)
Avg[n] = -75.2 => around -75
Of course, this is not a silver bullet, but better than nothing.

Operative state is mainly maintained based on 2 requirements:
* phy_link being in CONNECTED state
* RSL connection being up and ready
However, state change report triggered over OMl towards BSC was only
done upon the first event of the two. That means that if for whatever
reason the RSL connection was established AFTER the phy_link became
CONNECTED (ie receiving RSP POWERON in osmo-bts-trx), then the status
towards the BSC would not be updated and hence the BSC would still see
the Radio Carrier object as DISABLED.
The trx_set_available() function is renamed to trx_operability_update()

The idea behind the baseband frequency hopping is quite simple: we
have several RF carriers (transceivers) transmitting and receiving
on fixed frequencies (just like in a regular multi-trx setup), and
an additional burst routing layer between the schedulear and the
transceiver interface (TRXD over UDP).
Speaking in terms of the proposed implementation:
- on Downlink, dlfh_route_br() calculates the ARFCN corresponding
to the current TDMA frame number according to the hopping sequence
parametets, and picks the transceiver with matching ARFCN;
- on Uplink, ulfh_route_bi() iterates over the transceiver list of
of the BTS, calculating hopping ARFCNs for equivalent timeslots,
and picks the one with ARFCN matching the received burst.
In order to avoid frequent transceiver lookups on the Downlink path,
dlfh_route_br() maintains a "cache" in the timeslot state structure.
Unfortunately, this "cache" seems to be useless on the Uplink path,
so ulfh_route_bi() always needs to lookup the matching transceiver
for each burst received over the TRXD interface.
It may also happen that the scheduler will be unable to route an
Uplink or Downlink burst, e.g. due to inconsistent / incorrect
hopping sequence parameters received from the BSC, or in case
if a transceiver gets RF-locked by the BTS operator.
Such events are logged as "FATAL" and aditionally signalled by the
following osmo-bts-trx specific rate counters:
- trx_sched:dl_fh_no_carrier (Downlink), and
- trx_sched:ul_fh_no_carrier (Uplink).

This change facilitates the upcoming freq. hopping implementation,
in particular scheduling of dummy bursts on C0 with hopping time-
slots. One problem is that we cannot know in advance, whether to
send a dummy burst on a given timeslot unless all transceivers are
processed. For example, trx#3 may want to send a normal burst on
ARFCN of trx#0 (C0), while we have already sent a dummy burst...
Another important aspect is that we shall not be sending dummy
bursts on transceivers other than C0. Scheduling dummy bursts
from _sched_dl_burst() in the context of a single hopping timeslot
of a single transceiver leaves trx_sched_fn() no way to know
whether it's a dummy burst or something else.
Let's solve both problems by moving dummy burst scheduling logic
from _sched_dl_burst() to trx_sched_fn(). Maintain C0 slot-mask
in the inner (per-trx) loop, so that we can fill missing bursts
with dummy bursts afterwards.

According to 3GPP 45.002, section 5.2.4, a frequency correction
burst is basically a sequence of zeros. Since br->burst is already
zero-initialized, there is no need to maintain and memcpy() another
sequence of zeros into it. Just set the length.

Some backends like osmo-bts-trx require exchanging messages like
POWEROFF to close the TRX, and hence need some time. Switch the function
to expect result asynchronously by calling a callback.
This will be used later to wait until all TRX are really powered off

According to 3GPP TS 08.58, section 9.3.4, BS Power IE indicates
the transmission power attenuation on a particular channel:
+--------------+---------+-----------------+
| Reserved (3) | FPC (1) | Power level (4) |
+--------------+---------+-----------------+
so let's change handling of this IE as follows:
- s/bs_power/bs_power_red/g, so it reflects 'reduction';
- store power attenuation value in dB, not in 2 db steps;
- get rid of ms_power_ctrl.bts_tx_pwr, it's always 0 anyway;
- fix rsl_tx_meas_res(): use lchan->bs_power_red;
- always check if FPC (Fast Power Control) flag is set;
- we don't support it, so reject messages containing it;
- fix rsl_rx_chan_activ(): properly apply the bitmask.

This change simplifies access to generic logical channel state
(struct gsm_lchan) from osmo-bts-trx specific state (struct
l1sched_chan_state), so there is no need to look it up using
get_lchan_by_chan_nr() on receipt of each Uplink burst.

This change is similar to what we did for Uplink bursts:
- group all Downlink burst parameters into a single structure,
- allocate it once and pass a pointer to lchan handlers,
- pass a pointer to trx_if_send_burst().
Given that the structure is allocated and (zero-)initialized in
trx_sched_fn(), we can get rid of some memset() calls in lchan
handlers and thus improve the overall performance a bit.

It was a very bad idea to mix "public" BTS features, that are
reported to the BSC via OML, and those features, that are used
locally (and exclusively) in osmo-bts.
Why? At least because we already have the BTS feature manipulation
API in libosmocore, that is used by osmo-bsc, but for some reason
not by osmo-bts. New features added to libosmocore would clash
with the existing "internal" ones like BTS_FEAT_MS_PWR_CTRL_DSP.
So what this change does can be described as follows:
- remove duplicate definition of the "public" features,
- use libosmocore's API for the "public" features,
- separate both "internal" and "public" features:
- the "public" features continue to live in bitvec,
- the "internal" features become flags,
- s/BTS_FEAT/BTS_INTERNAL_FLAG/g.

The function ts45008_83_is_sub rougly decides if a frame is a SUB frame
or not. This works by checking the frame number against against lookup
tables. This works fine for codecs where the occurrence of SUB frames is
fixed. However for AMR this is not the case as the DTX periods are
dynamic. Here it is the responsibility of the lower layers (phy,
frame decoding) to tag SUB frames early since making the decision later
based on the frame number is not possible.
The parameter is_amr_sid_update was probably added as a placeholder. It
is set to falls by the callers of the function. Lets remove this
parameter as a late decision if an AMR frame is a SUB frame will never
work.

Currently we do not detect any of the DTX frames (SID_FIRST, SID_UPDATE

- Tag DTX frames as is_sub and set frame type to AMR_SID
- Set RTP marker bit when ONSET frames are received

When a NOPE indication is received from the TRX normally a separate
handler (.nope_fn) is called. It turned out that calling the Uplink
handler (.ul_fn) on NOPE indications is the usual case, so let's
remove the .nope_fn member and call the Uplink handler directly.
Since a NOPE.ind comes without burst bits, the Uplink handlers must
check bi->burst_len to avoid uninitialized memory access. For some
logical channels (in particular RACH, PDTCH/U, and PTCCH/U) it does
not make sense to call the Uplink handler, so we ignore them.

separate indications. This makes the overall uplink measurement data
processing unnecessarly complex. So lets put the data that is relevant
for measurement into the PH DATA and TCH indications directly.
This change only affects osmo-bts-trx at the moment. In order to keep
the upper layers (l1sap.c) compatible we add an autodection to switch
between separate measurement indications and included measurement data.

osmo-bts currently does not generate a measurement report in case the
SACCH of the related traffic channel is lost. This is a problem because
the moment when reception gets bad measurmenet reporting is crucial to
carry out handover decisions effectively.
The presence of a SACCH block controls the conclusion of the measurement
interval and the sending of the RSL measurement report. The latter one
not only requires a measurmenet indication, it also requires a fully
intact SACCH block.
Lets use the NOPE / IDLE indications from V1 of the TRXD protocol to
ensure a SACCH block is always reported up to l1sap.c. In cases where
the SACCH is bad, trigger the sending of the RSL measurement report
manually without attaching the measurmenet data from the MS (which we do
not have in this case)

Let's drop it instead of having code duplication from common code in a
lower layer, and maintain only the one in l1sap for all BTS models.
As a result, osmo-bts-trx loses feature BTS_FEAT_MS_PWR_CTRL_DSP and
will only be able to use "ms-power-control osmo" in VTY, which will be
enabled by default (meaning: change of behavior, now MS Power Control is
enabled by default in osmo-bts-trx and can only by disabled by BSC).
Old bts-trx specific VTY command "(no) osmotrx ms-power-loop" is marked
as deprecated but still working for more usual case (1 TRX configured)
to avoid breaking backward compatibility.
TA low level loop is still kept in loops.c and will be moved to l1sap at

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.

Use instead the received MS Power currently in use by the MS matching
the measured signal. This way there's no need to wait for the MS to
reach the announced MS power level or add checks in case the MS doesn't
support that specific power level. Furthermore, more fine grained
announced power level value can be obtained faster due to more input
iterations not being dropped while waiting.
osmo-bts-trx specific algo was not following this approach and using
announced MS power instead because it's wowrking at a lower level and
henche was not using the transmitted MS Power level value by the MS as
input for the calculation.
The "if (diff < 2 && diff > -2))" condition is dropped since equal
signal strength may still result in a different MS power level announced
(the one currently used by the MS during tx of last SACCH block).

It indicates whether BTS model supports managing an MS Power Control
Loop over HW/DSP instead of using the software based osmocom algorithm
present in osmo-bts.
osmo-bts-trx own loop implementation is considered to be a "DSP/HW" one
since it acts on lower layers and interferes with osmocom algorithm
since it controls the same end variable "lchan->ms_power_ctrl.current",
this way we make sure both aren't enabled at the same time.
Old behavior in kept: if common upper-layer algo is not enabled
explicitly in VTY (ms-power-control osmo) and bts-trx specific lower
layer algo is neither enabled (osmotrx ms-power-loop <xyz>), then no
power control is done at all.
