Change the paging strategy based on on if a LAC override
is in place or not. In case we had changed the LAC we need
to page on all the BTS. Change the "grace" handling to
iterate over the BTS and filter out all non matching ones
LAC in case no LAC handling is active.
Manually verified all four cases with a single BTS:
* No LAC handling and grace period
* LAC handling and grace period
* No LAC handling and not lock
* LAC handling and lock.
Related: SYS#1398
For MT we can't page per lac as we don't know which BTS was
the original one. Split the grace period and normal mode into
two methods so we can bloat both of them later.
We need to use different LAC/CI towards the core network.
It is a bit problematic as LAC/CI is a per BTS attribute
so this feature only works if a BSC manages everything in
the same LAC.

Move the "logging filter imsi IMSI" into the BTS/NITB code to
allow to set the gsm_subscriber and only compare it. This way
we simply compare the subscriber address and don't have to care
if the subscriber data is still valid.
Currently every subcriber object directly refers to the gsm_network
which contains a flag shared by every related subscriber
(keep_subscr). This adds a dependency on gsm_network even if only the
function defined in gsm_subscriber_base.c are used.
This patch adds a new struct gsm_subscriber_group which contains the
keep_subscr flag and a back reference to the network object. The
latter is not dereferenced in gsm_subscriber_base.c, so it can safely
be set to NULL when only that part of the gsm_subscriber API is being
used. It also changes that API to use gsm_subscriber_group instead of
gsm_network parameters.
Since there are some places where a pointer to the gsm_network is
needed but where only a gsm_subscriber is available, a 'net' back
pointer is added to the group struct, too. Nevertheless subscr group
and network could be separated completely, but this is not the topic
of this commit.

Some switches do not like to receive the IPA PING/PONG messages.
Allow to disable the handling with "no timeout-ping" and create
test cases that verify the switching between the modes. Change the
code to trat <= 0 as an invalid timeout.
Fixes: SYS#713
Before the old code allowed to specify "timeout-ping bla" which
would be parsed as '0' which would trigger a flood of pings. Use
the VTY code to parse it as a number.
We want to reduce the background traffic and might set the ping
interval to be in the range of minutes. But this means that if
the TCP connection is frozen several "SCCP CR CM Service Requests"
will be stuck in the send queue without ever being answered. I
could have used the logic of not receiving the "SCCP CC" to close
the connection but instead I am introducing an overload to schedule
the ping as part of the normal SCCP connection establishment.
The VTY write case has been manually verified, I have also looked
at a single trace to see that the SCCP CR and the IPA PING is
transfered in the same ethernet frame.
Now that the bulk of the control interface node lookup has
no reference to the BSC specific data structures, we are
moving it into libosmocore.
A control interface user now only registers an optional small
node lookup function like bsc_ctrl_node_lookup()
Send a non-call related SS message for an active call indentified
by the CIC of that call. As an ugly hack the order of the SS
release and the invocation are changed. That was necessary for the
E71 on a TCH. The time between notify and release was just too short.
The right would be to wait for the returnResultLast but this would
involve keeping more local state. Let's see how far we get here. It
might be necessary to change the order in the other call sites as
well.
Make it possible to inform local CTRL connections about some state.
The TRAP will be only sent to local connections. The notification
text may not contain spaces.
The code in the BSC/NAT called ipaccess_rcvmsg_base without
checking if the protocol is IPA. This lead the BSC to respond
to SCCP messages with an "ID ACK". From a quick look neither
the code of ipaccess_rcvmsg_base in OpenBSC nor the copy of
libosmo-abis ever checked the protocol header. So this code
has been wrong since initially being created in 2010.
The old ipa_msg_recv() implementation didn't support partial receive,
so IPA connections got disconnected when this happened.
This patch adds the handling of the temporary message buffers and uses
ipa_msg_recv_buffered().
It has been successfully tested by jerlbeck with osmo-nitb and
osmo-bsc.

For GPRS the look-up via bts/trx does not make any sense and would
introduce bad depdencies for the SGSN. Move the look-up code to a
new file and introduce new setup methods.
The interface can be accessed through CTRL and a socket. But currently
it is only available when the socket interface has been configured.
Create the interface all the time but only listen on the socket when
a path has been specified.
Rename this function to bsc_send_ussd_no_srv() since it's a rather
specialised function and not a generic USSD notification function.

The MS do not show the USSD messages yet. This patch modifies the
implementation to insert a CM Service Accept to finish the
establishment of the MM connection according to 3GPP TS 04.10/3.2.1
before the USSD notification is sent.
This fix has been tested with a Blackberry phone that has shown
an ussd_grace_txt after rf_locked has been set to '1'. Without this
patch, that message wasn't shown. The phone has sent a CC Setup
and other messages before processing the channel release message sent
by the BSC, but these messages have not been forwarded to the MSC (as
expected).

This adds a per BTS control command 'timezone' which expects a value
of the format '<hours>,<mins>,<dst>' or 'off' to set the value of
bts->tz. It has the same functionality like the existing VTY command
'timezone' in network/bts.

This adds in-place patching of the time information in the
MM INFORMATION message. The timezone in the 'Local time zone' and
the 'Universal time and local time zone' information elements
and the offset in the 'Network Daylight Saving Time' information
element are optionally set.
The new values are determined by the 'timezone' vty command in the
config_net_bts node. That command is extended by an optional
DST offset parameter.
Tests are provided for the vty part and for the plain
bsc_scan_msc_msg() function.

Send an USSD message to the mobile station requesting a connection
for a call or a SMS when the link to the MSC is down or in the
grace period.
The messages can be set (and this feature activated) by setting

The generation of both messages has been tested manually.

Add bsc_install_default() and replace all install_default()
This patch adds bsc_install_default() which calls install_default()
and add 'exit' and 'end'. All other calls to install_default() are
replaced by calls to bsc_install_default().
Since 'exit' and 'end' are now added automatically to each node, the
explicit registrations of these commands are removed by this patch,
too.
The related tests succeed now without work-arounds (except for the
'config' node itself which is part of libosmocore).

Change '%s(bsc)#' to '%s(config-bsc)# '. The missing trailing blank
breaks osmopy's VTYInteract.command() because the blank is contained
in the end patterns which are checked to decide whether to leave the

the test script forever.

It was possible that the tmp was strduped but not freed, e.g. when
the number of commas was not right. It would evenutally be freed at
the time the cmd is freed thanks to the talloc hierachy.
Katerina pointed out that some nodes are not fully documented and
proposed some messages. The token/timeout messages were correct, I
have modified the other messages. I removed the full-stop from the
PING/PONG documentation as we are normally not using a full sentence.
The RF lock excluded BTS was not paged at all. Now forward the
paging message to the handler and call a function that will check
if this LAC can be paged right now. Introduce a new paging method
that allows to page on a dedicated bts, refactor the code to use
this method for paging.
When introducing the exclude for the BTS lock the RF stayed up but
all connections were immediately released. Optionally pass the BTS
as second parameter and check the exclude bit.
