This is a generic MI extraction for the MI if it is followed
after a classmark. For the Phase1 Phones the classmark2 is not
four bytes but it might be different. This code can be used
by the CM Service Request handling as well.
We go from no size checks to some content checking. We should
refactor the whole classmark2 + mi parsing that is used throughout
the code into one place with proper size checking. This is the
start and requires a new libosmocore as well.
Before this commit, OpenBSC used templates for the SYSTEM INFO
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 messages. Those templates were patched in
various places to reflect the network config like ARFCN.
Now, we actually generate those SI messages ourselves, using
values from the configuration file, and even calculating neighbor
cell lists.
All bts'es that you have configured in OpenBSC will end up in
the neighbor cell list - which should be more than sufficient for
the current small-single-site networks.
Code to implement handover control logic. A yet-to-be-implemented
handover algorithm will call bsc_handover_start(old_lchan, new_bts)
to start the handover process.
This is needed by a yet-to-be-implemented handover algorithm, after
it has allocated a new lchan for the MS. Also missing: handling
the actual HANDOVER COMPLETE / FAIL messages in response.
This patch extends struct gsm_meas_rep into a complete structure containing all
information from both uplink and downlink measurement results/reports.
This is a first step to provide this complete measurement data as a C structure
into a to-be-implemented handover decision algorithm.
Both GSM 04.08 RR and GSM 08.58 RSL need the multirate config
in the channel modify. Place the config in the lchan, change
the gsm48 methods to not take the argument, change the RSL
implementation to make use of it with the right IE.
The other code should use the t(l)v_put routines as well but
were left untouched for now.
On channel mode modify and assignment command when using
the a multirate code the multirate configuration must be
present in the packet.
Add a parameter and add a warning when using it in a
broken way.
Allow to handle the channel requested differently based
on the NECI value for the "paging any" case. This will allow
to open a TCH/H, TCH/F depending on the neci mode.
Be able to send RR CHANNEL MODIFY from the BSC/MSC code
as well. Move the method that knows about the IPAccess RTP
and issues the "bind" to the utils tool
Add code to generate an assignment command for a given lchan. It
is expected that the lchan is modified already and the mode will
be picked up from their. Currently only the mandantory items
are supported.
We are using LAC=0 for remembering that a GSM subscriber is
detached. I recently added code to gsm_bts_by_lac that will
return every BTS in case the lac is 0. Harald highlightes
that we would now search for detached subscribers at every
BTS of our network which is clearly not what we want.
Introduce two defines for the two reserved LAC, add a
pointer to the specification, check that our config files
do not contain these reserved values, use the define
and change gsm_bts_by_lac to use the other define.
Add one method to extract the MI which will allow to load
the gsm_subscriber depending on the MSC/BSC setup and then
use gsm48_handle_paging_resp to finish the paging response
handling.
Transfering the cell_identity from BSC to MSC is required for the
on-waves.com support. Allow to set the cell_identity in the cfg
file and patch the system information tables to set it.
This just adds the 04.08 and RSL bits for A5, but not the logic
for performing authentication.
The caller would first set lchan->encr and then call
gsm48_send_rr_ciph_mode(lchan), which encapsulates the 04.08
CIPHERING MODE COMMAND into a RSL ENCRYPTION COMMAND and sends it
to the BTS for execution + forwarding.
Prefix generate_mid_from_tmsi with a gsm48_, create a new method
to binary encode the imsi. Add a unit test for parsing and decoding.
The implementation can parse the data it generated and the
last octet seems to be filled with the end mark.
The existing gsm_04_08.c implementation is mixing BSC and MSC
behavior. Move some simple parsing and generation functions over
to gsm_04_08_utils.c to allow a different MSC to define the policy.
SMS related messages are all sent over SAPI=3. But in addition
to that, we also need to send it over the correct link identifier,
i.e. SACCH or main signalling channel
* we only need one piece of code to calculate rsl_ie_chan_mode from
our run-time data structures (gsm_lchan)
* add some more channel modes for TCH/H and data
* use enum's to make the compiler warn us about unhandled enum values
* make sure the caller determines the (signalling,speech,data) mode
There were many places in the code where we had to explicitly
reference the transaction_id and put it into a packet. By introducing
and optional gsm_trans parameter to gsm48_sendmsg(), we can implement
this code once rather than dozens of time.
This is Harald's reworked MNCC base, slowly heading towards integration
into master. The key changes are:
* provide much more structure to the data in gsm_mncc
* encode_* and decode_* functions now take a structure rather than tons
of individual arguments (whose order nobody can remember)
* make sure we don't have copies of the same code everywhere by introducing
mncc_set_cause() and mncc_release_ind()
* save horizontal screen space if possible
* make sure we break lines > 80 characters
this patch implements the encoding/decoding of 04.08 call control information
elements. It adds new functions to be used for the application interface
patch, and is basis for the application patch (currently patch 36).
Please ignore warnings about unused static functions for now.
