osmo-iuh - Osmocom Iuh implementation
================================================
This repository contains a C-language implementation of the 3GPP Iuh
interface. You can use it to interface Iuh-speaking femtocells/small cells to
Iu-speaking MSCs and SGSNs.
It is part of the [Osmocom](https://osmocom.org/) Open Source Mobile
Communications project.

There is a cgit interface at http://git.osmocom.org/osmo-iuh/
Documentation
-------------
There is currently no documentation beyond the wiki available on the

Building
--------
It is generally best to check the wiki for the most up-to-date build
instructions.
As external library dependencies, you will need
* libosmocore from git://git.osmocom.org/libosmocore
* libasn1c from git://git.osmocom.org/libasn1c
* libsctp-dev (this is the package name in Debian)
* libosmo-netif from git://git.osmocom.org/libosmo-netif (sysmocom/sctp branch)
* libosmo-sccp from git://git.osmocom.org/libosmo-sccp (sysmocom/iu branch)
To bootstrap the build, in the root directory, run:
autoreconf --install
After that, run the usual
./configure [options]
make
[sudo] make install
Using
-----
Note: osmo-iuh just left very active development (December 2015, January
2016), so your mileage may vary.
Regenerating C code from ASN.1 source
-------------------------------------
In order to re-generate the C source code from the ASN.1 source,
you will need a modified asn1c which has the following features:
* APER support (the patch from Eurecom, or its forward-ported version
from the aper branch of git://git.osmocom.org/asn1c)
* Support for prefixing the generated types (aper-prefix branch of
git://git.osmocom.org/asn1c)
* Then in osmo-iuh.git: make -C src/ regen
