libosmocore 40832fcfb58c8c97c66e098c5705352ac5beea8e and later contain
the vty_cmd_string_from_valstr() function, so we shouldn't have
a local / deprecated copy anymore.
The band was derived from the ARFCN but this does not work for
PCS1900/DCS1800 due overlapping ARFCNs. Use the already existing
band configuration to select the band for the MphInitReq. The
dsp firmware will complain if the band/arfcn do not match.
For the firmware used on RevB the GsmL1_Prim_t was bigger than
the femtobts control structure. Solve it by introducing a macro
that will select the biggest size and use this macro. This is a
follow up fix for 08fce19cfc.
Introduce femtobts_tracef_docs with some more information about
the traceflags, add parameters to the vty_cmd_string_from_valstr
for specifying the separator, the suffix and if the name should
be lowered.
From our header files v2.4 onwards, we include some macros that allow us
to do compile-time checks for the API header version. As older headers
don't have those macros, we have to fall back to assume it will be v2.2
This daemon is taking care of counting the number of hours in operation
and to watch the system temperature as determined by internal
temperature sensors.
Later, it will export an external interface for firmware reload, as well
as a way to raise OML ALARMs in case of temperature issues or other
problems.
As the careful commitlog reader Andreas points out: When the BSC does
not sent NM_ATT_MAX_TA, then it would be zero instead of the specified
default value of 63.
The total count of RACH or PCH slots should never be zero, as they
constantly increment. However, just as a safeguard, we introduce
an explicit handign to avoid divide-by-zero situations
We now count the total number of RACH slots, the number with rx level
above the busy threshold, and the number of valid access bursts.
This data is used to generate RSL CCCH LOAD INDICATION for the RACH.
As Holger pointed out, it may well be the case that there are no system
information messages to be sent at TC=4, and we should avoid a modulo by
0. I'm simply sending SI2 instead now, as it isn't forbidden to send it
more often than the minimum at TC=2...
In v2 the calibration value is the clock error in ppb that needs
to be compensated. Create a V2 specific implementation. Write the
clock value unconditionally as it is initialized to 0 by default
and not 0xffff.
We now implement the fairly complex rules for schedulign of
SI 2bis/2ter/2quater, 13 and 9 on TC=4 and TC=5 of the BCCH Norm.
The patch is currently untested.
Once we get RF-ACTIVATE.conf from L1, we now enable the corresponding
LED. We also switch it off on RF-DEACTIVATE.conf. We do _not_ switch
it off when osmo-bts crashes or terminates before RF-DEACTIVATE.conf.
The latter is intentional, as RF may very well still be active at that
point. The re-spawning script will re-set the DSP and therby turn off
the RF and then disable the LED.
A better solution might be to do all this in the kernel driver for the
DSP.
an external application can create /var/lock/bts_rf_lock and then kill
the pid in /var/run/osmo-bts.pid in order to shut down the BTS. Any
re-spawning scripts will trigger, but osmo-bts will refuse to start up
until /var/lock/bts_rf_lock is removed again.
... and warn if the size is not what we expect.
This is required to work with sysmobts-v2 firmware >= v2.1, as the
SuperFemto_Prim_t is now larger than the GsmL1_Prim_t.
SI5/SI6 and other messages on SACCH need the C/R and the EA bit set in
the LAPDm header. Most devices accept a broken header, but especially
the Wavecom Q2686 responds with tons of RR STATUS messages if there is
any invalid bit.
This allows us to do RF measurements (EDGE EVM and the like) even
without having any PCU/RLC/MAC code as of now.
To use it, configure PDCH type timeslots (e.g. TS 7) in the BSC and then
use "trx 0 7 activate 0" to manually activate the PDTCH lchan on top
of that timeslot. The BTS will now happily transmit EDGE/8PSK data.
The ciphering parameters in L1 are persistent accross MPH
deactivate/activate, so we need to make sure to always initialize them
cleanly at RSL CHAN ACT time. This has the added benefit that we can
also activate channels that have encryption enabled from the very
beginning (required for encrypted handover).
where previously we would only see
<0006> oml.c:931 (bts=0,trx=0,ts=1,ss=0) MPH-DEACTIVATE.req (FACCH/F)
we now get
<0006> oml.c:931 (bts=0,trx=0,ts=1,ss=0) MPH-DEACTIVATE.req (FACCH/F RxUL)
to notice it is modifying the receive path in the uplink direction.
Send the RSL ACT ACK/NACK after the Layer1 firmware has acked the
activation/deactivation. In case the channel can not be activated
we will send a NACK. In case the channel can not be deactivated we
will send an ACK and the next time the channel is activated we will
send a NACK. The release ack will be sent once the TxDownlink of the
TCH/SDCCH is closed.
Change the rsl_tx_chan_nack method to create a new msgb to be used
by the hardware layer, change the return value to ask the caller to
delete the msgb.
Use the deact_sach (renamed to deact_sacch in master) to remember if the
SACCH has been disabled. This should fix the case of lchan errors due releasing
the lchan twice.
Do not msgb_free the msg as it will be re-used inside the nack
method and return 1 so the caller does not free the msgb. This
ownership model needs some consideration but the usage of ref
counts will not yield good results.
If the deactivation is failing the channel needs to be moved into
and error state, if the deactivation completed the channel needs to
be set to the none state and set the state to release reqeust on
the deactivation.
This will make app -V print the copyright information like the other
applications of our universe. An BTS integration that want to list
additionaly copyright holders needs to access the vty_app_info and create
a new copyright string.
We now check if the received message is an LAPDm I frame in order to
determine if we have received the first valid encrypted message on the
radio link. This relates to the fact that we often see 'old' UI frames
coming up from L1, even after it has confirmed decryption has been
enabled.
When the RR CIPH MODE CMD is transmitted to the MS, we need to tell the
L1 to enable decryption on RX. After the first received frame has been
decrypted successfully, we will enable encryption also on transmit.
This has been tested with A5/1 so far, but A5/2 and A5/3 should work
exactly identical.
In L1 RTP mode, the L1 already does all the bit-shifting and re-ordering
required for the RTP formats (which have different bit/nibble order than
the ETSI/3GPP encodings, for some odd reason).
We don't enable it by default yet, as only HR/FR/EFR work with it, but
AMR has some yet to be debugged problem.
Enabling USE_L1_RTP_MODE would save some CPU cycles on the ARM side.
The old firmware does not expose separate queues for PDCH and TCH. The change
appears to be too intrusive and I will try to find a more elegant solution.
The compiler can not know that the "int priv_nr" will hold the
enum values of the write queue, add a default branch and add a
warning and an assert there.

If we don't do this on recent L1, the L1 will refuse the open after
re-starting osmo-bts.
There still is an issue in case osmo-bts crashes. We should have a
respawn loop that re-loads the DSP firmware before re-starting osmo-bts,
just to make sure...
The TODO item still applies to somehow limit the queue of incoming
messages and drop older ones first. A sane limit would be the number
of channels (+ or * 2).
rc might not be initialized when going through the default
statement but also hitting a break inside the switch case
statement for GsmL1_Sapi_Sacch.

We have to
* merge the new attributes with the exiting TS (not BTS) attributes
* in case of success, attach the new merged attributes to our state
* in case of success, free the old attributes
Thanks to Holger for pointing this out.
If someone wants to have paging for a wrong frame, gracefully return
and do not fill the output buffer. Because we are on the wrong frame
I think it is best to not fill the frame, this is why I did not add a
check to l1_if.c to generate an empty frame.
We have to either lapdm_exit() both DCCH and ACCH (not 2x ACCH) or
rather call lapdm_channel_exit() which does that for us.
Thanks to Holger Freyther for spotting this bug.
The first one just sets the val to 0xffff, the second converted
the value to integer twice.

We now have to explicitly indicate the tchPlType at channel activation
type, so L1 knows which channel decoder to use (FR, EFR, AMR, ...)
Also, we properly implement the initial codec mode selection as per TS
05.09
* parse AMR multirate config form 04.08 IE into easier format
* CMR, CMC and CMI on the L1 side are an _index_ into the current
mode array
* Fix conversion of AMR SID frames from RTP -> L1
We don't really know if the HR encoding is compatible with other
equipment, but it _should_ follow Chapter 5.2 of ETSI TS 101 318.
Please note that RFC5993 also specifies a way to encode GSM-HR into RTP,
we do not try to be compatible with that. The only difference seems to
be one additional TOC octet at the beginning of the payload field.
Using osmo-bts-sysmo and this code, it is now possible to do FR and AMR
based voice calls on TCH/F.
A lot of CPU is wasted in the conversion between the RTP formats and the
L1 specific formats for the codec frames. All data needs to be shifted
by four bits, and the order of bits needs to be reversed in every byte.
