The reason for this is quite simple: We want to make sure anyone
running a customized version of OpenBSC to operate a network will
have to release all custom modifiations to the source code.
Increase the number of SMS we will try to send at a time and
decrease the failures we handle before going to the next item. With
the default timeout we will attempt to page the subscriber for 60
seconds and we can increase the queue speed by going to the next
item faster.
The SMSqueue will be responsible of sending to the user. It will
do so in a loop and will also try not to overload the BTS. This
means the throughput of SMS will be limited.
This uses the osmo_daemonize() function of libosmocore >= 0.1.18,
and is now implemented for bac_nat, osmo-bsc, bsc_hack, osmo-gbproxy
and bsc_mgcp. This means only osmo-sgsn is missing, which currently
has no option parsing at all.
We want the VTY and telnet code to be independent from the BSC
application(s). As a side note, we also like to eliminate static
global variables for 'struct gsm_network' all over the code.
As such, telnet_init() is now passed along a "private" pointer,
which getst stored in telnet_connection.priv. This telnet_connection
is then stored in vty->priv, which in turn gets dereferenced if
anyone needs a reference to 'struct gsm_network' from the BSC vty
code.
Also:
* vty_init() now calls cmd_init()
* the ugliness that telnet_init() calls back into the application by means of
bsc_vty_init() function has been removed.
* telnet_init() now returns any errors, so the main program can exit
e.g. if the port is already in use.
This enables us to make the VTY completely independent of any
compile-time program-specific information, i.e. one step closer
to using VTY as a shared library from multiple programs.
The logging/debugging code is generic enough to move it into libosmocore
while keeping OpenBSC specific definitions in openbsc itself.
This commit uses the logging support present in libosmocore-0.1.2,
you will have to update your library to this version.
This library is intended to collect all generic/common funcitionality
of all Osmocom.org projects, including OpenBSC but also OsmocomBB
The library currently includes the following modules:
bitvec, comp128, gsm_utils, msgb, select, signal, statistics, talloc, timer,
tlv_parse, linuxlist
msgb allocation error debugging had to be temporarily disabled as it depends on
'debug.c' functionality which at the moment remains in OpenBSC
The way the VTY configuration sytem works is that it first registers a
BTS of type GSM_BTS_TYPE_UNKNOWN and then sets the type correctly (after
encountering the type statement). This makes sure that registering a BTS
of type UNKNOWN succeeds.
Some NM attributes are defined differently depending on
the BTS type. Having one big nm_att_tlvdef[] table for
all BTS types is no longer sufficient. This patch
* introduces 'struct gsm_bts_model' to describe a BTS model
* adds definitions of gsm_bts_model for BS-11 and nanoBTS
* changes the abis_nm_tlv_parse() function: include a bts pointer
The VTY code makes so many allocations that a full report is
simply too long to provide any useful information. So we sub-divide
it in multiple contexts, and report only one level deep at SIGURS1.
We also introduce SIGUSR2 for the full detailed VTY report.
Change the counters_store_db function to be a generic for_each
function taking a function pointer and data. Use that in bsc_hack
to store it to the DB.
This is removing the DB requirement and will allow to handle
the counter values in different ways without making the counter
list public.
I verified that the syncing is still taking place.
This is the new logging architecture, including
* support for multiuple logging targets like stderr and vty
* log levels in addition to categories/subsystems
* filtering based on imsi, i.e. only see events for one subscriber
* dynamically change log level for each category for each vty
With this commit, we can successfully hand over a channel from one cell to
another cell. We implement asynchronous intra-BSC (but inter-BTS) handover.
Changes:
* introduce new DHO log category
* extend rsl_chan_activate_lchan() with argument for HO reference
* introduce actual minimal handover decision making in handover_decision.c
* various fixes to bsc_handover_start() in handover_logic.c
We might read or write on the OML link when the BTS is
reset and will get SIGPIPE interrupt and be gone... Just
ignore the SIGPIPE we will get the "exception" on the next
run of bsc_select and kill the (old) OML link.
Share the initialization and bootstraping of the network by moving
the code to a new file and making boostrap_network and shutdown_net
external.
Cleanup the header list after the move and remove trailing whitespace.
the various constructors get called in a non-obvious, linker determined
order, which makes certain objects disappear from the talloc report.
This change moves the talloc context creation into a new talloc_ctx.c file
