Instead of using hardcoded -1 for errors, include -1 in the enum auth_action

Make the SMPP bind address configurable (used to be harcoded as "0.0.0.0").
Add VTY command
smpp
local-tcp A.B.C.D <1-65535>
while keeping the old command 'local-tcp-port <1-65535>'. Both the old and the
new command immediately change the SMPP listening address and port.
Add a LOGL_NOTICE log when the SMPP listening address and/or port change.
However, to be useful, this patch has to go somewhat further: refactor the
initialization procedure, because it was impossible to run the VTY commands
without an already established connection.
The SMPP initialization procedure was weird. It would first open a connection
on the default port, and a subsequent VTY port reconfiguration while reading
the config file would try to re-establish a connection on a different port. If
that failed, smpp would switch back to the default port instead of failing the
program launch as the user would expect. If anything else ran on port 2775,
SMPP would thus refuse to launch despite the config file having a different
port: the first bind would always happen on 0.0.0.0:2775. Change that.
In the VTY commands, merely store address and port if no fd is established yet.
Introduce several SMPP initialization stages:
* allocate struct and initialize pointers,
* then read config file without immediately starting to listen,
* and once the main program is ready, start listening.
After that, the VTY command behaves as before: try to re-establish the old
connection if the newly supplied address and port don't work out. I'm not
actually sure why this switch-back behavior is needed, but fair enough.
In detail, replace the function
smpp_smsc_init()
with the various steps
smpp_smsc_alloc_init() -- prepare struct for VTY commands
smpp_smsc_conf() -- set addr an port only, for reading the config file
smpp_smsc_start() -- establish a first connection, for main()
smpp_smsc_restart() -- switch running connection, for telnet VTY
smpp_smsc_stop() -- tear down connection, used by _start() twice
And replace
smpp_openbsc_init()
smpp_openbsc_set_net()
with
smpp_openbsc_alloc_init()
smpp_openbsc_start()
I'd have picked function names like "_bind"/"_unbind", but in the SMPP protocol
there is also a bind/unbind process, so instead I chose the names "_start",
"_restart" and "_stop".
The smsc struct used to be talloc'd outside of smpp_smsc_init(). Since the smsc
code internally uses talloc anyway and employs the smsc struct as talloc
context, I decided to enforce talloc allocation within smpp_smsc_alloc_init().
Be stricter about osmo_signal_register_handler() return codes.
Add ctrl_vty_init() calls and feed the ctrl_vty_get_bind_addr() return value to
ctrl_interface_setup() in the following programs:
osmo-bsc
osmo-bsc_nat
osmo-nitb
osmo-sgsn
For osmo-sgsn, move the control interface setup invocation below the config
parsing, so that the ctrl_vty_get_bind_addr() can return the configured
address.
If an MM context cannot be found based on BBSGP info and a RA UPDATE
REQUEST is received, try to find an MM context with an P-TMSI from
which the TLLI could have been derived. This also checks, whether the
routing area matches.
This is similar to the old behaviour removed by the commits
"sgsn: Only look at TLLIs in sgsn_mm_ctx_by_tlli" and
"sgsn: Remove tlli_foreign2local", except that this will only
be done for RA UPDATE REQUESTs now.

When a MNCC handler wants to issue the MNCC_BRIDGE primitive
overt the MNCC interface, this was not possible so far via the
MNCC socket. This primitive was so far only available from the
internal MNCC handler, more or less by accident I suppose. The reason
for this is in the way the array of two call references had been passed
into mncc_tx_to_cc().
Because the sender is known, one unique TEI per tunnel suffices to map the TEIs
that the peers are sending to gtphub, instead of previously 4 (SGSN<->GGSN
interaction on User and Ctrl plane, where each had an own unique TEI).
Also, previously, a tunnel's endpoints should also have been checked against
each other for TEI reuse, not only against the endpoints of other tunnels. This
simplification fixes that problem for free.
Thus simplify TEI reuse detection and improve VTY show readability and
debugging.
Adjust log and VTY output for tunnels.
Adjust tests accordingly.

If an SGSN is behind NAT, we cannot rely on the default ports. Specifically,

Force passing a restart counter, by adding such arg to gtphub_start() (test

So far, gtphub worked perfectly by only tracking single TEIs ... for probably
most uses. But a Ctrl plane tunnel may have expired despite a still active
corresponding User plane tunnel. The User plane would continue to work
indefinitely, but if any Ctrl messages followed after more than six hours of
Ctrl silence, they would have been dropped due to an expired TEI mapping.
We want to
- combine expiry of a user TEI with its ctrl TEI. (done in this patch)
- upon delete PDP context, remove both user and ctrl TEI mappings. (future)
- when a peer indicates a restart counter bump, invalidate its tunnels.
(future)
To facilitate these, track tunnels, complete with both SGSN's and GGSN's
address, original and replaced TEIs, all for both user and ctrl plane, in a
single struct. A single expiry entry handles the entire tunnel, instead of
previously four separate expiries for each endpoint identifier.
Add the concept of a "side", being either GGSN or SGSN, to index tunnel
endpoint structs, and so on.
Track the originating side in the gtp_packet_desc.
Add header_tei_rx: set_tei() overwrites header_tei, but the originally received
header TEI is still needed to match a Create PDP Context Response up with its
Request (and for logging).
Adjust the test suite to expect tunnel listing strings instead of TEI mappings,
with a bonus of making it a lot easier to grok, and including the IP addresses.
Add regression test for refreshing tunnel expiry upon use.
Note: the current implementation is as slow as can possibly be, iterating all
the tunnels all the time. Optimizations are kept for a future commit, on
purpose.
BTW, the sequence number mapping/unmapping structures remain unchanged.

Clean up functionality is added for the test suite only, to be able to clean
out all allocations and test against memory leaks.
So far, it was sufficient to expire everything to free a gtphub. In preparation
for the upcoming rate counters, which will need to be freed explicitly, add
gtphub functions to clean up everything.
As added bonus, also close the sockets explicitly -- not really needed upon
program exit, neither by the test suite, but *if* we have a cleanup function,
it should clean up everything properly.
Closing the sockets is however kept separate, for the test suite.
gtphub_start() and gtphub_stop() are for normal use (published in gtphub.h),
and gtphub_init() and gtphub_free() are for the test suite, without sockets.
(gtphub_stop() will probably never be called by anyone, but its existence
completes the picture.)
In gtphub_test.c, have a function to clean up the testing gtphub struct. First,
expire everything by timeout, assert emptiness, then call the cleanup function.
Call from each test in the end.

Implement min/max bounds for nr_pool, adjust nr_pool_init() and current tests,

Sequence numbers range from 0 to 65535, while TEIs range from 1 to 0xffffffff.
Both cause problems when the nr_pool surpasses the range: seq exit their valid

This fixes a bug in the following circumstances:
* BSIC is set to 0 in the config file
* No TSC is explicitly specified at the BST level in the config file
In this case, we ended up using BSIC=0 and TSC=7, as TSC=7 is our
default initialization value.
The TSC of the CCCH/BCCH must always be the BCC, which is the lower 3
bits of the BSIC. Having configuration options for both the BSIC _and_
the TSC at the BTS level therefore makes no sense, as it only adds ways
in which users can configure non-oprational configurations. So we
remove the bts->tsc member, and keep only the ts->tsc members that allow
us to configure a timeslot-specific TSC that's different from the BTS
TSC (= BCC).
Fit most of the code in 80 chars width. Some instances still leak past 80

Add new kitchen sink openbsc/utils.h and libcommon/utils.c to make three so far
static functions public (so I can use them in the upcoming OAP code).
A place to put them could have been the gprs_utils.h, but all general functions
in there have a gprs_ prefix, and todo markings to move them away. All other
libcommon headers are too specific, so I opened up this kitchen sink header.
Replace the implementation of encode_big_endian() with a call to
osmo_store64be_ext(). See comments.
Apply the change in Makefiles and C files.
This change has some implications for the test case. It manipulated
bss_ptmsi_state and sgsn_tlli_state variables to make the output of
rand_r() and thus the TLLI/TMSI used predictable.
This possibility is gone when using RAND_bytes() so instead it is
overridden by a function that returns a deterministic sequence of values
(0x00dead00, 0x00dead01, ...). The test cases are adapted to expect
these values instead of the pseudo random values before.
The gbproxy_test stdout file changes as well, but only where the
TLLI/TMSI is displayed (in the hex dumps as well as the TLLI cache
entries). All other output is the same.
This API is a bit unfortunate as the caller will also
access the endpoint directly. E.g. like this:
output = bsc_mgcp_rewrite(...,
mgcp_net_src_addr(endp),
endp->net_end.local_port, -1,
In terms of "terminology" the "net" was meant to be bad
internet and the "bts" is the local and trusted network
segment. With this terminology the "bts" would be the
call-agent/MGW and "net" where the BSCs will send data
to but that is not the case and terminology actuallys
refers to:
* net: The addresses exposed to the entity that
made the MGCP call
* bts: The system where we get our data for the
local audio flow.
Fix the method but leave the API as it is. Use the net_end
in the net_src method and the bts_end in the bts_src method.
There appears to be a leak of CIDs:
<000b> mgcp_osmux.c:544 All Osmux circuits are in use!
There are paths that a CID had been requested and never released
of the NAT. Remember the allocated CID inside the endpoint so it
can always be released. It is using a new variable as the behavior
for the NAT and MGCP MGW is different.
The allocated_cid must be signed so that we can assign outside
of the 0-255 range of it.

The signature of mr_config and the BSC implementation didn't

^
osmo_bsc_api.c:530:2: warning: (near initialization for ‘bsc_handler.mr_config’)
Change the mr_config again and provide an implementation
that will set the ms and bts data structure. It would be
better to put the size outside of the IE but I am not going
to change it right now. It would also be nice to either move
the AMR setting into the "nitb" structure or have the msc
data be used _after_ the bts settings. This needs to be
cleaned up in the next step.
Manually verified by placing a MO call and checking that
both the channel mode modify and the mode modify request
contain the multi rate config with the rate mr config
(length two bytes, version 1, icmi==1, no start mode being
set).
This way a lot of if/else can just be killed by the caller deciding
which of the two instances to use.
I have copied both branches to new files, replace bts for ms in one
of them and ran diff on it. There is no difference.
In case of the RTP bridge mode we need to select the codec
ourselves. Rely on the same (incomplete) codec selection that
can be done using the mncc-int configuration node. This might
gain bearer capabilities support.
In case of a SDCCH a TCH/F will be attempted to be assigned.
This is an open issue for both modes and there should be a
preference for full or half-rate channels somewhere.
Implement sending MDCX on the newly allocated channel and send
the data to the same destination as the currently connected one.
This way the receiver can implement RTP RFC Appendix A.1 and
deal with the new source.
For the LCR rtp-bridge audio should directly flow to the
remote system. In contrast to the original patch audio
will now flow directly from the BTS to the remote system.
This assumes that BTS and the remote system are in the
same network segment and can directly communicate.
There are various limitations in the first iteration of
the implementation:
We could (and in the future) should delay the assignment
but currently we are forced to pick the channel and move
it to the audio state. In case we are located on a SDCCH
we always need to change but if we are on a TCH we could
send the ipa.CRCX and change the audio state a lot later.
The net effect is that the audio codec selection needs to
be done in the NITB code and not in the system connected
to it.
This only works with ip based systems. For E1 systems one
could still use the RTP socket or even try to move this
out of the process.
There is no code for handover handling and it relies on
the remote system dealing with the SSRC change of the
system.
This adds the protocol definition for the RTP bridge extension
of Andreas Eversberg and bumps the protocol version.
I added the missing mncc mappings from value to string.

The mera switch doesn't appear to cope with codec change

Iridium is a satellite network which operates a GPRS-like that allows you to

This patch uses the new dummy padding support in libosmo-netif that is
controlled through the osmux osmux_xfrm_input_open_circuit().
This includes a new VTY option for osmux.
We have a lot of legacy that I am afraid to break. We have
everything in place to make a good codec selection (e.g. if
we can avoid transcoding, pick the one with best quality or
the lowest speed). Right now I have a specific case where
from all options I want to pick GSM. Guard the codec compat
check behind the disallow transcoding option to make sure
to not break legacy application.
The SDP file handling will get more complicated in terms of
codec selection so let's remove it from the protocol handling
before we start blowing it up in size.

In case foreign simcards are used we can not do authentication

page using TMSI we can't know which of the two MS is responding
to us. We could change the "secure channel" routine to ask for
the IMSI and only then stop the paging.
As we don't have ciphering there is not much use in using the
TMSI. Add a mode "no assign-tmsi" that will not assign the TMSI
during LU. Now CM Service Request and Paging Response will
work using the IMSI. There can't be a clash with that.

The following patch renames this field for clarity and consistency
with the standards.
We don't need to consume all the entropy of the kernel but can
use libcrypto (OpenSSL) to generate random data. It is not clear
if we need to call RAND_load_file but I think we can assume that
our Unices have a /dev/urandom.
This takes less CPU time, provides good enough entropy (in theory)
and leaves some in the kernel entropy pool.
We are using the token to find the right bsc_config and
then we can use the last_rand of the bsc_connection to
calculate the expected result and try to compare it with
a time constant(???) memcmp.
Check if the NAT has sent 16 bytes of RAND and if a key
has been configured in the system and then generate a
result using milenage. The milenage res will be sent and
noth the four byte GSM SRES derivation.
Generate 16 byte of random data to be used for A3A8 by
the BSC in the response. We can't know which BSC it is
at this point and I don't want to send another message
once the token has been received so always send the data
with an undefined code. The old BSCs don't parse the
message and will happily ignore the RAND.
/dev/urandom can give short reads on Linux so loop
around it until the bytes have been read from the kernel.
Instead of doing open/read/close all the time, open the
FD in the beginning and keep it open. To scare me even
more I have seen /dev/urandom actually providing a short
read and then blocking but it seems to be the best way
to get the random byes we need for authentication.
So one should/could run the cheap random generator on
the system (e.g. haveged) or deal with the NAT process
to block.
Unfortunately the basic structure of the response is broken.
There is a two byte length followed by data. The concept of
a 'tag' happens to be the first byte of the data.
This means we want to write strlen of the token, then we
want to write the NUL and then we need to account for the
tag in front.
Introduce a flag if the new or old format should be used.
This will allow to have new BSCs talk to old NATs without
an additional change. In the long run we can clean that up.
The code to do that doesn't belong to the control interface, so
abstract it out to a separate function gsm_bts_set_system_infos().

For real networks we need to check if the requested APN string
is allowed and then resolve the GGSN address through DNS. There
are countries with two or three digit MNCs and one could either
try to keep a list of countries that have two/three digits or
just try both of them. I have opted for the later for the ease
of the implementation.
C-Ares doesn't allow to cancel a request so we will need to
have the MMCTX and the Lookup have different lifetimes. We simply
set ->mmctx to NULL in case the MMCTX dies more early.
The selected and verified apn_str will be copied into the out
parameter. In case no static APN/GGSN config is present and the
dynamic mode is enabled a request will be made.
c-ares is an asynchronous DNS resolver and we need it to
resolve the GGSN address. This is integrating the library
into our infrastructure. We will create and maintain a list
of registered FDs (c-ares is currently only using one of
them) and (re-)schedule the timer after events occurred.
Include the hlr-Number of the subscriber in the CDR. This is useful
for debugging and understanding which equipment was used during the
test. In contrast to the MSISDN the '+' is emitted as the number
must be in international format already.
Copy the hlr-Number into the sgsn_data and use it during
the purgeMS. There is no unit test that looks at the data
we send so I manually verified this by looking at the output.
Below is the output of the test that purges the subscriber.
<000f> gprs_subscriber.c:170 SUBSCR(123456789012345) Sending GSUP, will send: 0c 01 08 21 43 65 87 09 21 43 f5 09 07 91 83 61 26 31 23 f3
The charging_id is provided by the GGSN. Copy it into the CDR
part of the data structure so it will remain present until after
the pdp context has been deleted.
This is consuming the new signals and allows to install several
different CDR/observing/event/audit modules in the future. For
getting the bytes in/out the code would have had to undo what the
rate counter is doing and at the same time adding a "total" to
the ratecounter didn't look like a good idea, the same went for
making it a plain counter.
Begin writing the values one by one and open/closing a new FILE
for every log messages. This is not efficient but easily deals
with external truncation/rotation of the file (no fstat for and
checking the links and size). As usual we will wait and see if
this is an issue.
Add some new members to our PDP context structure to see what it
is about.
sgsn_create_pdp_ctx should use the subscribed QoS. When selecting
the PDP context we inject the QoS to be used into the TLV structure
and use it during the request. Assume a "qos-Subscribed" structure
only with three bytes and prepend the Allocation/Retention policy
to the request.
The MSISDN should be present for "security" reasons in the first
activation of a PDP context. Take the encoded MSISDN, store it for
future use and then put it into the PDP activation request.
The MM Context contains a field for a decoded MSISDN already. As
we need to forward the data to the GGSN I want to avoid having to
store TON and NPI in another place. Simply store the data in the
encoded form.
It is a bit arbitary to decide which one is the global
and which one is the local one. We might change it around.
I don't think we want to introduce it based on BTS.
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.
mgcp_vty.c:1381:34: warning: absolute value function 'abs' given an argument of type 'long' but has parameter of
type 'int' which may cause truncation of value [-Wabsolute-value]

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.

Keep track if the power level has been "fixed" by the BSC,
otherwise keep track of the currently ordered one. The ms_power
is the initial value set by the BSC and continues to be used.
Create a control command to read and modify the gprs mode. Use
the get_string_value to indicate if the value was found or not.
This is useful for the ctrl interface where I didn't want to
replicate "none", "gprs" and "egprs". Share code to verify that
a BTS supports the mode.

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()

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
'update-subscriber imsi IMSI update-location-result CAUSE' command.

Currently, an incoming GSUP request message isn't answered at all if
it is not handled due to an error or missing implementation.
This patch adds GSUP error replies for these requests (and only for

GMM_CAUSE_MSGT_NOTEXIST_NOTIMPL, which will have to be changed, when

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.
