If transaction is destroyed, but callref still exists, the
mncc_release_ind function is called. If the upper layer already sent an
MNCC_REL_REQ, the state N19 was entered. In this case it expects an
MNCC_REL_CNF.
The issue can be reproduced by typing the following 9 or more times.
OpenBSC> subscriber id 2 sms sender id 2 send bla
For some unknown reason the phone sends us a CP-ERROR for a transaction
identifier we have allocated and used but don't remember. Due the way
we use the SMC/SMR we 'establish' the machine and this results in a CP-ACK
being sent out. But the CP-ERROR is not having the content we want for
an establish so we send out a RP-ERROR. This will result in a CP-ERROR
because the phone does not know the transaction...
Avoid the issue by checking the direction of the transaction. If we do
not know the transaction and it is supposed to be allocated by us then
just ignore it and do not create a new transaction.
Set the subscriber expiry timeout to twice the duration of the location
update period and provide functions subscr_expire() and
db_subscriber_expire() to mark subscribers offline that have missed two
location update periods.
This patch increases the DB revision to 3, so the hlr will be
incompatible with prior versions.
We should allow 0 for T3212 as well to disable the location update
period. In that case we will need a way to indicate that in the
database.
This was reported by Kevin when he was testing handover. The problem
is the order of the signal handlers for S_ABISIP_CRCX_ACK. Right now
the handover signal handler is called before the one inside the libmsc
gsm_04_08.c. This means S_HANDOVER_ACK is signalled _before_ there is a
rtp socket created for the channel. The result is that the MDCX will
never be sent and the called will not be properly switched _after_ the
handover detection.
I do not want to play with the order of signal handlers, remove the
CRCX ack handling from the handover_logic.c and force the NITB (and
later the BSC) to check if the lchan is involved with a handover and
do the switching in there. This means right now we do what two signal
handlers did in one.
Reproduced and tested with the FakeBTS Handover test.
Log message:
<0004> abis_rsl.c:1954 (bts=1,trx=0,ts=3,ss=0) IPAC_CRCX_ACK ...

If subscriber A is calling B and has sent a CC Setup message we will
allocate the MO and MT transaction and link them together. When the
BTS or the lchan is failing the BSC API will send a clear request,
as part of the clear request all pending transactions will be released.
As part of taking down the transaction, the remote leg will be informed
and will send a MNCC_REL_REQ. This results in a call to trans_free. The
llist_for_each_entry_safe does not handle removing other elements from
the list and we would segfault.
One way to fix this is to move the transaction list into the subscriber
connection. This might require to create the subscriber connection for
MT handling earlier. Otherwise one could have one transaction list inside
the subscriber connection and a global list for MT- transactions.
This has been reported and analyzed by Tobias Engel. The IMSI Detach
is dispatched as part of the complete layer3 message. I had patched
the code to release the anchor and call msc_release_connection to
release the connection as fast as possible (otherwise the anchor would
trigger in a couple of seconds).
With commit 70ae5d3000 I made this more
generic to release the connection immediately if there are no operations,
no transaction and no silent call. This leads to the subscriber connection
being released twice and eventually causing a segfault. Remove the
msc_release_connection invocation from the IMSI Detach code as the connection
will be taken down by the BSC API.
This has been tested using the FakeBTS and an IMSI Detach message. The
channel is released immediately and the nitb does not crash.
Rebased, tested and fixed by Holger Freyther. Release the transaction
only once the SMC is asking for the release and set the cb's to NULL
to catch a use after free early.
This has been rebased and fixed by Holger Freyther. The change of
the debug area was split out in a previous commit and the is_mt was
put back into the transaction code.
The transaction is now freed from the RELEASE_REQ sent by the SMC
layer and not inside the error path. When clearing the SMC instance
we also clear the callbacks.
This should and does happen as part of the trans_free/msc_release_connection
code. There is no easy way to determine that the lchan is now 'free' for other
things.. Let the transaction code sort this out. This code just needs to make
sure that transactions are always freed.
This is more a work around and one still needs to implement a
proper dispatch on the opening of the connection. If there is no
operation left, no transaction and no silent call, close down the
channel.
Use the code that is shipped inside the libosmogsm library. Right now
the signature (besides the static) and the implementation is the same.
This makes using the libosmogsm SMC code more easy in the near future.
For the gsm340_gen_oa we are now using a small wrapper to generate the
proper type and numbering plan.
For some reason, libsmpp34 is too smart to zero out the entire structure
to which it is unpacking. This introduces an ugly wrapper macro to
work around. This needs discussion with the libsmpp34 maintainer.
It is a bad idea to detach a subscriber. The subscriber will not
be reachable until the next periodic updating cycle. In case we have
too many failed deliveries we will need to reduce the period for the
LU and implement a subscriber purging task.
This is a preparation for the 29C3 and a problem Jolly experience with
his type writer system.

Some nodes below 'config' didn't have ournode_exit / ournode_end,
and thus were not able to properly perform this function. exit should
always only go back one level, while end drops us back to ENABLE_NODE.
The prompt now represents the nesting level, and there's one consistent
space after the final prompt character (typically #).
The Nokia E71 sends a "IMSI Detach" this msc code does not immediately
send the "RR Channel Release", the E71 is impatient and sends a DISC,
the "RELEASE INDICATION" is handled by starting the channel release
procedure. OpenBSC sends a "RR Channel Release" which will never be
answered, during the early release there is no timer and the lchan will
be in "RELEASE REQUESTED" forever.
This commit removes the anchor operation and checks if the channel can
be released immediately. Regarding the channel release handling there
is already a branch that needs to be tested.
so far, osmo-bts/sysmobts used to be entered as "sysmobts" type in the
configuration file. However, there are some differences in the
protocol/behaviour and we should reflect that by a new BTS plugin (with
lots of code reuse from the nanobts driver).
strstr() was used with wrong argument order, causing it to always match,
and causing an invalid response to a variety of different SS and USSD
requests.
This has apparently caused havoc among a number of HTC phones which
issue SS requests without user interaction upon boot, and then trip over
our inappropriate response.
RR Messages like STATUS, GPRS SUSPEND, HANDOVER COMPLETE/FAIL, ...
should be processed on the BSC side of things, not on the MSC side.
This is among other things required in preparation of intra-BSC
hand-over support in osmo-bsc.
gsm_data_shared.h includes e1_input.h of libosmo-abis, add the
LIBOSMOABIS_CFLAGS to Makefile.am, remove AM_LDFLAGS at the same
time as we only build .a archives.
Increase the version number and send the sizeof of the gsm_mncc
and the gsm_data_frame structure. Include the offsets of some
members as well to maybe identify ABI problems.
The reason we go through this is that we want to benefit from
the native ABI and don't want to force packed structs.
The osmo-nitb application sometimes crashes because the BSC API
is doing an assignment underneath which is not handled by the code,
add dumy handlers to not crash, the right thing to do is to change
MNCC to have an assignment that can succeed/fail.
The keyword to look for is MNCC_LCHAN_MODIFY and mncc_sock should
wait for an ack/nack but right now the call just continues.
The UTC offset from the operating system will be used by default to
calculate the NITZ in MM INFO. However, a "timezone" vty command is
added at the BTS level, allowing BTS-specific overrides, e.g. in case
BTSs are distributed accross multiple timezones.
Send a hello packet down to the client with the version number
of the MNCC interface. The hello structure might be extended to
include the endianes, size of each structure, etc.
In order to have the MNCC application reliably decide on the codec type,
it needs to know if we are running on a TCH/F or TCH/H. Thus, we pass
lchan_mode as a new parameter to the 'struct gsm_mncc'
This is a big patch that ports openBSC over libosmo-abis.
Sorry, the changes that are included here are all dependent
of libosmo-abis, splitting them into smaller pieces would
leave the repository in some intermediate state, which is
not desired.
The main changes are:
- The directory libabis/ has been removed as it now lives in
libosmo-abis.
- new configuration file format for nanoBTS and HSL femto, we
need to define the virtual e1_line and attach it to the OML
link.
- all the existing BTS drivers (nanoBTS, hsl femto, Nokia site,
BS11 and rbs2000) now use the new libosmo-abis framework.
- use r232 input driver available in libosmo-abis for bs11_config.
- use ipa_msg_recv instead of old ipaccess_read_msg function.
- delete definition of gsm_e1_subslot and input_signal_data.
These structures now lives in libosmo-abis.
Most of this patch are deletions of libabis/ which has been
moved to libosmo-abis.
This patch also modifies openBSC to use all the new definitions
available in libosmocore and libosmo-abis. In order to do that,
we have replaced the following:
- DINP, DMI, DMIB and DMUX by their respective DL* correspondences.
- SS_GLOBAL by SS_L_GLOBAL
- SS_INPUT by SS_L_INPUT
- S_GLOBAL_SHUTDOWN by S_L_GLOBAL_SHUTDOWN
- SS_INPUT by SS_L_INPUT
- S_INP_* by S_L_INP_* sub-signals
- E1INP_NODE by L_E1INP_NODE vty node
This patch has been tested with:
- one nanoBTS
- the HSL femto with the examples available under libosmo-abis
- BS11 with both dahdi and misdn drivers.
This patch modifies openBSC code to use msg->dst which stores the
pointer to the signalling link structure instead of the pointer to
the transceiver structure.
This patch prepares the introduction of libosmo-abis.
This will cause the remote end to read 0 bytes, which is interpreted as
if we cleanly closed the socket, making the remote end close their side
of the socket, which would lead to us closing our side of the socket,
so we should never send such a packet.
It was possible to set the LAC=0 on a subscriber that just has
done a LU because it did not respond to a paging request.
E.g. when a phone is rebooting, a SMS being delivered, the phone
is doing the LU, sub_ready_for_sm will try to send a SMS (but the
phone is not ready yet and it will timeout), then the paging code will
send us an expiration note and we might set the LAC=0 for this
subscriber.
Ideally we would be able to stop the paging request once the subscriber
is authenticated and then hand this to the SMS layer, right now the
best thing to do is to detect that we will run into this problem and
not send the SMS, not try to set the LAC=0.
This patch adds several messages that would be displayed if:
* the Ki argument is missing.
* you pass an invalid Ki.
* the database fails to perform the operation (add/delete/update).
Before this patch, no messages were spotted on this errors.
I noticed this while adding Ki to the existing subscribers in the
nanoBTS setup: I introduced a wrong Ki but the VTY command line did
not report any error. A quick look at the database via sqlite
command confirmed that the new authkey information was not added.
When we have no other MNCC connection but the registeration of the
new fd is failing we should not disable reading from the listen_fd
for ever as the situation might not be permanent.
libosmogsm is a new library that is distributed in the libosmocore.
Now, openbsc depends on it. This patch gets openbsc with this
change.
This patch also rewrites all include path to the new
osmocom/[gsm|core]
