Reincarnate gsm_network_init() as the parts not specific to libbsc.
Move from bsc_network_init() those bits that are not BSC specific (and useful
for upcoming osmo-cscn).
Add libcommon-cs to all linkages that use gsm_network_init().
Note: the only requirement to allow linking gsm_network_init() without libbsc
is to keep the call to gsm_net_update_ctype() out of libcommon-cs. The other items
are kept out of libcommon-cs because it makes sense semantically. But the separation
is not strong in that the BSC specific data members are of course still
omnipresent in struct gsm_network. If bsc_network_init() is not called, these
are not initialized properly -- for now no users of uninitialized members
exist.
So this is just a first step towards a sensible split of the BSC and MSC
gsm_network structs. The long term aim should be to have entirely separate
structs with some common general items.

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.
For customer requirements we want to be able to do
filtering on the BSC as well. The same messages need
to be scanned and the same access-lists will be looked
at. In the future we might even split traffic based
on the IMSI. Begin with moving the code to a new top
level directory and then renaming and removing the
nat dependency.
This patch adds the voice muxer. You can use this to batch RTP
traffic to reduce bandwidth comsuption. Basically, osmux transforms
RTP flows to a compact batch format, that is later on decompacted
to its original form. Port UDP/1984 is used for the muxer traffic
between osmo-bsc_nat and osmo-bsc_mgcp (in the BSC side). This
feature depends on libosmo-netif, which contains the osmux core
support.
Osmux is requested on-demand via the MGCP CRCX/MDCX messages (using
the vendor-specific extension X-Osmux: on) coming from the BSC-NAT,
so you can selectively enable osmux per BSC from one the bsc-nat.cfg
file, so we have a centralized point to enable/disable osmux.
First thing you need to do is to accept requests to use Osmux,
this can be done from VTY interface of osmo-bsc_nat and
osmo-bsc_mgcp by adding the following line:
mgcp
...
osmux on
osmux batch-factor 4
This just initializes the osmux engine. You still have to specify
what BSC uses osmux from osmo-bsc_nat configuration file:
...
bsc 1
osmux on
bsc 2
...
bsc 3
osmux on
In this case, bsc 1 and 3 should use osmux if possible, bsc 2 does
not have osmux enabled.
Thus, you can selectively enable osmux depending on the BSC, and
we have a centralized point for configuration from the bsc-nat to
enable osmux on demand, as suggested by Holger.
At this moment, this patch contains heavy debug logging for each
RTP packet that can be removed later to save cycles.
The RTP ssrc/seqnum/timestamp is randomly allocated for each MDCX that
is received to configure an endpoint.
* Increase the rewritten rule to five digits (this is the easiest
for the unit test). This will add another 40kb to the runtime size.
* Create a unit test that tests adding and removing the prefix rules.
* Use the regexp match to replace from one package
We want to send a TRAP with the MGCP statistics from the NAT and
the connected BSC. The BSC endpoint can be either released because
of a DLCX from the MGCP CallAgent or the SCCP Connection release on
the A-link.
This is why we need to queue the statistics when the deleting the
endpoint on the BSC. The processing is continued once the response
arrives. This code assumes that the response of the DLCX will be sent
by the remote side. The current amount of outstanding responses can be
seen on the VTY. This assumption is based on the fact that the BSC has
already responded to the CRCX and maybe to the MDCX.
The MGCP RFC is bended to prefix the transaction identifier with "nat-"
to easily detect the response and hand it to the handler. This will
then parse the response and generate the TRAP. The current version is
v1. We assume that the transaction space is big enough and we will
not re-assign the transaction identifier too early.
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.
In 136f453dd2, I forgot to update
the new header path in the test/bsc-nat files (this happened to
me because I forgot to configured openBSC without --enable-nat).
Remove a lot of code in favor of a new function that is freeing
the old string and copying the new one. I should have gotten the
context and the strings right.
Add --enable-nat and --enable-osmo-bsc to build applications
requiring the Osmo SCCP library to be installed. We are not
using autodiscover as this is out of fashion.
When losing the SCCP connection make sure that we free all
endpoints. The disconnection of the BSC should already make
sure they are closed but this makes sure everything is
properly reset.
Moving it here means we can more easily test this code, there is one
behaviour change with the code that we only support paging messages
with one LAC and will silently ignore the others.
This test case tests connectiont tracking by sending
a CR, getting a CC, sending a DTAP, receiving a DTAP,
receiving a RLSD, sending a RLC. It verifies that the
messages are properly patched specially the references
at the BSC.
