Pau Espin 6710670cb1 Fill Last Used E-UTRAN PLMN Id when in CSFB Since recently, osmo-bsc behaves strictly as per specs, meaning it will only send the "Cell selection indicator after release of all TCH and SDCCH IE" in RR Channel Release iff: * "Last Used E-UTRAN PLMN Id" was received in the CommonID sent MSC->BSC * "Last Used E-UTRAN PLMN Id" was received insider "old BSS to new BSS Information" in the HandoverRequest sent MSC->BSC. On the other hand, CSFB_Indicator from ClearCommand MSC->BSC is nw ignored and not taken into account. Hence, let's update osmo-msc to also behave correctly by sending the Last Used E-UTRAN PLMN ID at CommonID tx time to avoid regressions in CSFB support when running against newer osmo-bsc. Let's keep sending the CSFB Indicator in ClearCommand as we used too, in order to keep compatibility with older BSCs (as per spec).

About OsmoMSC
=============

OsmoMSC is an implementation of the 3GPP MSC (Mobile Switching Centre)
network element.  It implements the following core functionality within
the 2G (GSM) and 3G (UMTS) networks:

* mobility management
* call control (either via built-in MNCC handler or external osmo-sip-connector)
* USSD (exposed via GSUP)
* SMS (either via built-in SMSC or external via GSUP)

Historically, OsmoMSC originated from the OpenBSC project, which started
as a minimalistic all-in-one implementation of the GSM Network. In 2017,
OpenBSC had reached maturity and diversity (including M3UA SIGTRAN and
3G support in the form of IuCS and IuPS interfaces) that naturally lead
to a separation of the all-in-one approach to fully independent separate
programs as in typical GSM networks.

OsmoMSC was one of the parts split off from the old openbsc.git. Before,
it was the libmsc part of the old OsmoNITB. Since a true A interface and
IuCS for 3G support is available, OsmoMSC exists only as a separate
standalone entity.

OsmoMSC exposes
- GSUP towards OsmoHLR (or a MAP proxy);
- A over IP towards a BSC (e.g. OsmoBSC);
- IuCS towards an RNC or HNB-GW (e.g. OsmoHNBGW) for 3G voice;
- MNCC (Mobile Network Call Control derived from GSM TS 04.07);
- SMPP 3.4 (Short Message Peer-to-Peer);
- The Osmocom typical telnet VTY and CTRL interfaces.
