For the BSC we will have the gsm48_hdr and don't need to
find data within SCCP. For legacy reasons we need to
initialize con_type, imsi, reject causes early on and
need to do the same in the filter method.
This means we need to require a talloc context and
simply operate on the list. I had considered creating
a structure to hold the list head but I didn't find
any other members so omitted it for now.
Move the filter methods to the filter module. This is
still only usable for the NAT and the _dt/_cr filter
routines need to move back to the bsc_nat in the long
run.
ENDPOINT_NUMBER takes the difference of two pointers. On 64bit
builds the difference is a long and the compiler then complains
about the usage of abs. We will never have thousands of endpoints
so silence the warning by casting the ENDPOINT_NUMBER to int.

The idea of "subscriber_get_channel" was that different
requests would be coordinated. At the same time we have
seen that the "queue" can get stuck at both 31C3 and the
rhizomatica installations.
Voice calls and SMS do not need coordination. We should
be able to send SMS on a voice channel and switch the MS
from a SDCCH to a TCH in case we establish a voice call.
The SMS code itself needs to coordinate to obey the limit
of one SMS per direction but this should be enforced in
the sms layer and not on the subscriber.
Modify the code to have a simple paging coordination. The
subscriber code will schedule the paging and register who
would like to know about success/failure.
This allowed to greatly simplify the paging response
handling for the transaction code (and in fact we could
move the transaction list into the subscriber structure
now). The code gained to support to cancel the notification
of a request (but not the paging itself yet).
TODO: Cancel paging request in case no one cares about it
anymore.
We might have compiled transcoding into the MGW but
we don't want to enable it for a given user. Add a new
switch that should allow that.
I had manually tested the allow-transcoding/no allow
VTY interface for the primary interface and a new trunk
using show running-config.
We had issues with odd behavior on the nanoBTS which lead
to the introduction of the "broken" state. On busy multi
BTS cells (e.g. rhizomatica) with wifi backhaul the timeout
we set to wait for a RF Channe Release ACK is sometimes too
little and channels are marked broken that look to be okay
(besides the still to be determined delay).
In case of a sysmoBTS we now know that we can change the
state of a broken channel back to normal in case we do
receive the right response.
Manually verified using the Smalltalk BTS code
PackageLoader fileInPackage: 'FakeBTS'
bts := FakeBTS.BTS new.
bts btsId: '1903/0/0'.
bts connect: 'localhost'.
bts waitForBTSReady.
test := FakeBTS.OpenBSCTest new.
test bts: bts.
test requireAnyChannel
... wait for NITB output
<0004> abis_rsl.c:223 (bts=0,trx=0,ts=0,ss=0) Timeout during deactivation! Marked as broken.
... process pending messages
stdin next
<0004> abis_rsl.c:735 (bts=0,trx=0,ts=0,ss=0) CHAN REL ACK for broken channel. Releasing it.
So the channel went from broken to unallocated.
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.

Currently the APN IE in the Activate PDP Contex Request and the PDP
data that is stored with the subscriber is ignored completely.
This commit adds the sgsn_mm_ctx_find_ggsn_ctx that checks the APN IE
against the subscriber's PDP data entries if both are present. If
there is no match, the request is rejected.
If an APN IE has not been included but PDP data entries are present,
the function checks all of these entries against the static 'apn'
configuration to find a suitable entry.
If an APN has not been determined so far and any APN is allowed, the
configuration is checked with an empty APN string, to allow for
default configurations based on the IMSI prefix only.
If nothing of this succeeded but the request wasn't rejected either,
and there is no 'apn' configuration at all or if any APN is allowed
but a default configuration ist not present, the GGSN with id 0 is
used (if present).
Otherwise the request is rejected ('missing APN').

This commit adds the exported functions apn_ctx_find_alloc,
apn_ctx_free, apn_ctx_by_name, and apn_ctx_match to manage and
retrieve APN to GGSN mappings.
The following VTY commands are added to 'config-sgsn':
- apn APN ggsn <0-255>
- apn APN imsi-prefix PREFIX ggsn <0-255>
which maps an APN gateway string to an SGSN id. The SGSN must be
configured in advance. When matching an APN string, entries with a
leading '*' are used for suffix matching, otherwise an exact match is
done. When a prefix is given, it is matched against the IMSI. If
several entries match, a longer matching IMSI prefix has precedence.
If there are several matching entries with the same PREFIX, the entry
with longest matching APN is returned.

Currently the PDP info that is transmitted via GSUP is just parsed
and then discarded.
This commit adds a new data structure sgsn_subscriber_pdp_data and
maintains a list of those in sgsn_subscriber_data. The PDP data is
copied from an incoming GSUP UpdateLocationResult message. If that
message contains the PDPInfoComplete flag, the list is cleared before
new entries are added. The 'show subscriber cache' output now also
shows the PDP data entries.
Note that the InsertSubscriberData message is still not supported.

Currently the MM context cleanup code is distributed over several
functions. sgsn_mm_ctx_free not only frees data structure but also
eventually stops the timer and does the subscriber clean-up.
mm_ctx_cleanup_free (gprs_gmm.c) cleans up the PDP contexts and
unassign the TLLI.
This commit moves the cleanup code from both functions into a new
unifying function sgsn_mm_ctx_cleanup_free that cares about the
clean-up of all related sub-systems.

Currently, sgsn_update_subscriber_data can be called with mmctx ==
NULL and will find and associate the right context (if present) based
on the subscriber's IMSI. This will not happen in regular use
any more, since sgsn_update_subscriber_data will only be called when
subscribers are used (auth mode 'remote') and in this case
gprs_subscr_get_or_create_by_mmctx will already be called by
sgsn_auth_request. Therefore, MM context and subscriber are always
associated except for some test cases and experimental VTY usage.
The current implementation of sgsn_update_subscriber_data also causes
additional complexity for the deletion on MM contexts to avoid a
ipossible double-free MM contexts.
This commit removes the MM context <-> subscriber association code
from sgsn_update_subscriber_data. That function must always be called
with mmctx != NULL, now. To avoid problems with VTY and test usage,
the calling subscriber function now only call
sgsn_update_subscriber_data when mmctx != NULL, since the purpose of
that function is to update that state of an existing MM context after
subscriber data has been changed.

The old name is somewhat misleading. The function is rather preparing
the subscriber for a subsequent subscr_free, that is possibly invoked
by a subscr_put. It detaches the subscriber from the MM context and
optionally invokes a PURGE_MS procedure. Therefore the _cleanup
suffix is chosen (see mm_ctx_cleanup_free).

Currently gprs_subscr_delete implicitely calls subscr_put, which
makes the code more complex than necessary (additional subscr_get) in
a few places. It also makes it more difficult to see, whether get/put
are balanced within a function. In addition, the functions are not
named consistently (gprs_subscr_delete vs.
gprs_subscr_put_and_cancel).
This commit changes the semantics of gprs_subscr_delete and
indirectly of gprs_subscr_put_and_cancel to not call subscr_put on
their argument, but to leave that for the caller to do it
explicitely.
It renames gprs_subscr_put_and_cancel to gprs_subscr_cancel to
reflect that change in the name, too.

The subscriber cache would help in case:
* GPRS DETACH, GPRS ATTACH. In that case we might still
have some cached authentication tuples we avoid another
sendAuthenticationInfo request.
* After a detach the cache expiry would make sure to
eventually send a purgeMS to the HLR (which might be
ignored).
At the same time to make the cache work we will need to
make sure to start and stop timers. In case we don't
start we might accumulate subscribers. I am afraid that
the above two benefits do not outweight the complexity
of this implementation.
Currently old LLMEs and MM contexts that haven't been explicitly
detached or cancelled are not removed until another request with the
same IMSI is made. These stale entries may accumulate over time and
severely compromise the operation of the SGSN.
This patch implements age based LLME expiry, when the maximum age has
been reached, the corresponding MM context is cancelled. If such an MM
context doesn't exist, the LLME is unassigned directly.
The implementation works as follows.
- llme->age_timestamp is reset on each received PTP LLC message
- sgsn_llme_check_cb is invoked periodically (each 30s)
- sgsn_llme_check_cb sets the age_timestamp to the current time if
it has been reset
- sgsn_llme_check_cb computes the age and expires the LLME if
it exceeds gprs_max_time_to_idle()

[hfreyther: Fix typo in comment LMME -> LLME]
Currently, all GPRS timer values are hard-coded. To make these values
configurable in seconds and to show them, conversion functions from
and to seconds are needed.
This patch adds gprs_tmr_to_secs and gprs_secs_to_tmr_floor. Due to
the limited number of bits used to encode GPRS timer values, only a
few durations can be represented. gprs_secs_to_tmr_floor therefore
always returns the timer value that represents either the exact
number (if an exact representation exists) or the next lower number
for that an exact representation exists.

Currently an error_cause of 0 is being used to indicate normal
operation. Albeit this is not a defined GMM cause, the value is not
explicitly reserved.
This commit adds the macro SGSN_ERROR_CAUSE_NONE and uses it for
initialisation (instead of relying on talloc_zero) and comparisons.
The value is set to -1 to be on the safe side. The VTY code is
updated to set the error_cause when using the

GSM 09.02, 19.4.1.4 mandates that no other MAP procedures shall be
started until the PURGE_MS procedure has been completed.
This patch implements this by adding corresponding state and checks
to gprs_subscr_purge, gprs_subscr_location_update, and
gprs_subscr_update_auth_info. If an Update Location or a Send Auth
Info Req procedure is not started because of blocking, the retry
mechanism is aborted to shorten the blocking time. The outstanding
Purge MS procedure itself is not aborted.

Currently, when the PURGE_MS_REQ to the HLR gets lost (e.g. by a
connection or peer failure), the expired subscriber entry will not get
deleted.
This commit adds a retry mechanism then restarts the procedure after
a timeout (currently 10s). The maximum number of retries is limited
(currently to 3 PURGE_MS messages). If none of these procedures is
completed (either with success or error), the subscriber data is
deleted.

When a subscriber entry is going to be deleted by SGSN and when the
subscriber info has been obtained from a remote peer via GSUP, the
peer should be informed before the entry is really deleted. For this
purpose, MAP defines the PURGE MS procedure (see GSM 09.02, 19.1.4).
This patch adds support for the PURGE_MS_REQ/_ERR/_RES messages and
invokes the procedure when the subscriber entry is going to be
removed. This only applies if GSUP is being used, the Update
Location procedure has been completed successfully, and the
subscriber has not been cancelled. The removal of the entry is
delayed until a PURGE_MS_RES or PURGE_MS_ERR message is received.
Note that GSM 09.02, 19.1.4.4 implies that the subscriber data is not
to be removed when the procedure fails which is not the way the
feature has been implemented.
Note that handling 'P-TMSI freezing' is not implemented.

Set the expiry delay after the subscriber has been deleted (e.g. by
freeing the MM context). If cancelled, the subscriber will be deleted
immediately and no timeout will be set. If the expiry time is set to
SGSN_TIMEOUT_NEVER, no timer will be started and the subscriber entry
will be kept until it is cancelled.
The following VTY command is added to the sgsn node:
- subscriber-expiry-time <0-999999> set expiry time in seconds
- no subscriber-expiry-time set to SGSN_TIMEOUT_NEVER
The default is an expiry time of 0 seconds, which means that the
subscriber entries are wiped out immediately after an MM context is
destroyed.
Note that unused MM contexts are not expired yet. Therefore the
subscriber will only be expired after a successful MM detach.

This patch adds a new logging macro, that logs to DGPRS and provides

This patch extends gsm0408_gprs_access_denied and
gsm0408_gprs_access_cancelled to accept GMM cause codes. These are
then passed to the MS, unless gsm0408_gprs_access_cancelled is called
with cause 0 (no error -> updateProcedure).
Since gsm0408_gprs_access_denied uses GMM_CAUSE_GPRS_NOTALLOWED if
the cause is not set, and the subscriber's error_cause is never set
(and thus always 0), the SGSN's behaviour does not change with this
patch.
