This patch is quite big because implementing echo req/resp and recovery
requires having knowledge and managing differentiated state for each GSN
peer attached/connected to osmo-ggsn. This kind of information was not
available in osmo-ggsn nor in libgtp.
So osmo-ggsn is now able to track GSN peers connected to a
ggsn_ctx (associated gsn_t from libgtp) by means of "sgsn_peer" data
structure, and accessible from the ggsn through a list. The instances of
sgsn_peer are currently allocated and destroyed dynamically based on
discovered peer who have at least a pdp context attached to us (we are
not interested in peers without pdp contexts because we don't need to
send echo requests/responses and maintain state in that case).
A new private pointer (pdp_t->priv) data structure struct pdp_priv_t is
added to be able to relate a pdp_t to an sgsn as well as the already
existing pointer to an apn.
An "echo-interval <0-36000>" VTY command is added which allows
configuring time wait between echo requests being sent to each
sgsn_peer. Transmission of echo requests is disabled by default.
Finally, a new "show sgsn" VTY command is introduced, and its output is
also printed during "show ggsn".

This way ggsn.c is shrinked in size and get rid of a lot of code there,
which is of no interest unless the reader is interested in that really
specific part.

This way, the IP address / route handling between TUN devices and kernel
GTP can be shared, which will provide not only a unified codebase but
also a more consistent behavior.
This also paves the road for to use kernel GTP from sgsnemu in the future.

Osmocom has maintained this program since about 7 years now, while
the original author / copyright holder has completely disappeared.
With the introduction of Osmocom-style CTRL and VTY interfaces,
the way how the program is used and configured has substantially
changed. In order to avoid confusion in terms of configuration file
format etc, let's rename it to OsmoGGSN.

The 3GPP specs are quite strange when it comes to how an IPv6 address
or rather prefix is assigned to an IPv6 PDP context. The designated
method for allocating the IPv6 address via the PDP EUA (End User
Address) Information Element in the GTP signalling plane is *not*
used to allocate the address/prefix. Instead, the EUA is used to
allocate an "interface identifier" to the MS, which it the uses
to derive its link-local source address to send a router solicitation.
The GGSN subsequently answers witha router advertisement, advertising
a single/64 prefix, whihcthe MS then uses to generate it's real IPv6
source address for subsequent communication.

Only generation of TRAP messages over Control Interface is supported so
far.
Note: requires corresponding version of libosmoctrl.

This patch adds the -g, --gtpnl=device option that allows you to
enable the GTP kernel tunneling mode in openggsn. You have to specify
the real downlink device that will be used to tunnel traffic, eg.
-g=eth0
This means that the gtp0 device will be created and it will use eth0
as the real device to encapsulate packet coming from the Internet that
are addressed to the MS (so the tunnel devuce encapsulates these IP
packets in GTP packets when traveling to the SGSN).
Alternatively, you can also add this to the ggsn.conf configuration file:
gtpnl eth0
The device has to be the real device that can route packets to the SGSN,
if you select the wrong device, the kernel routing code may not find a
way to reach the SSGN, you've been warned.
Therefore, if this option is set, the operational becomes the following:
1) A gtp0 device is created via rtnetlink and configure the socket
encapsulation infrastructure in the kernel.
2) Whenever a PDP context is created, this adds the necessary tunnel
configuration via genetlink GTP interface.
3) Whenever a PDP context is destroyed, this deletes the tunnel via
genetlink GTP interface.
4) Destroy the gtp0 device if ggsn is stopped, including all of the
existing tunnels.
You require the osmo-ggsn.git tree, which contains the kernel module
gtp.ko and the libgtpnl library that you have to compile and install.
Make sure you have loaded the gtp.ko kernel module before launching
the ggsn daemon using the kernel driver mode, otherwise you will get
a nice "operation not supported" error message ;-).
This patch also adds supports for "ipup" configuration option to invoke
an external script after the gtp0 device has been brought up. Typical
command to add the route to reach the MS behind the GGSN is required,
eg. ip route add 10.0.0.0/8 dev gtp0.
The (horrible) ggsn parser has been manually extended to support the
new configuration option. That code doesn't look nice, but it just
mimics what we already have there for consistency, please don't blame
me for that.
If you want to run in debugging mode, I suggest you to use:
sudo ggsn -c ggsn.conf -f -d
Note that you do have to run openggsn as root to bring up the gtp0
device. You have to see this message that announce that the GTP kernel
mode is enabled.
openggsn[1106]: ggsn.c: 656: Using the GTP kernel mode (genl ID is 25)
This patch also automagically sets up route to reach MS from Internet
just like tun mode does. This is fundamental to get this working,
better don't leave to the admin, he may forget to add this route.
In this patch, I tried to encapsulate this new feature as much as
possible as Harald initially suggested.
To compile this feature, you have to pass --enable-gtp-kernel, ie.
./configire --enable-gtp-kernel
Otherwise, the code to interact with the gtp kernel part is not compiled.

We are not using this option in any of our projects and it is breaking
make distclean. Remove the option for now.
