Jacob Erlbeck 423f8bfa02 sgsn: Make authorization asynchronous
Currently the authorization of an IMSI is done by checking ACLs
synchronously which is not feasible when the subscriber data has to
be retrieved from an external source.

This patch changes this by using a callback when the information is
available. This is also done when only ACL are checked, in this case
the callback is invoked from within sgsn_auth_request(). The callback
function sgsn_update_subscriber_data calls sgsn_auth_update which
in turn calls either gsm0408_gprs_access_granted or
gsm0408_gprs_access_denied. gsm48_gmm_authorize is extended by a call
to sgsn_auth_request when IMSI and IMEI are available but the
auth_state is unknown.

The change has been successfully tested with single phones (E71 and
IPhone 5c).

About OpenBSC
=============

OpenBSC is a minimalistic implementation of the GSM Network, with
particular emphasis on the functionality typically provided by the BSC,
MSC, HLR, VLR and SMSC.

Its currently supported interfaces towards the BTS are:

 * Classic A-bis over E1 using a mISDN based E1 interface. In other
   words, you can connect existing GSM Base Transceiver Station (BTS)
   through E1 to OpenBSC.  So far, we have only tested the Siemens BS-11
   Test reports with other BTS are much appreciated!

 * A-bis over IP as used by the ip.access nanoBTS product family

You can find the project documentation at http://openbsc.gnumonks.org/

This project is still in its early days, and there are lots of areas where it
doesn't behave as per GSM spec.

libosmocore
===========

Please note that as of March 2010, OpenBSC has a dependency to a library
called "libosmocore".  You can obtain that library from

	git://git.osmocom.org/libosmocore.git
