When setting a POLL, it will always happen on PACCH, so all the CCCH
part makes no sense there. Let's drop it and move the logging of each
case to the caller, where logging file+line is more useful.

There's no real use in having those 2 methods separately, and only adds

There are 2 methods "rcvd_dl_ack()" in osmo-pcu code. One is used by
osmo-pcu itself, and the other is only used in tests.
Changing the tests to use the same method as osmo-pcu allows removing
the second one, and with it, a lot of code and complexity out of
osmo-pcu.

The side effect is that the timer is enabled for other scenarios where a
PACCH assignment happens, like an Assignment Reject or Ul Assignment
(that's why there's more lines showing up now in TbfTest.err).

Having that code in a separate function is confusing and adds code
complexity since it looks like an entry point to start feeing a TBF, but
it simply some (not yet really useful) set of instructions to be called
one 1 code path in tbf_free.
Let's move it there, this way it becomes clear tbf_free() is THE place
to be (if you want to get rid of a TBF).
Change-Id: I30febf4d21a0bfab37524c07598bbb0dd32f7f65
This way we clean up tbf_free entry point, and leave memory freeing for

It's fine to always attemt dropping the timer since it's set up in the

This also drps the double function call abort()+cleanup() which is
confusing.

PdchUlcTest output changes because the original state NULL is not
expected when transactioning to RELEASING upon MAX N310* being hit. In
any case, none of those events should happen in NULL state, but we
don't really care about TBF states there so we are fine with whatever
the state is.

At some point later in time the state_flags will most probably be split
into different variables, one ending up in a different FSM. It is moved
so far to the exsiting FSM from the C++ class since it's easier to
access it from C and C++ code, and anyway that kind of information
belongs to the FSM.

This is only an initial implementation, where all state changes are
still done outside the FSM itself.
The idea is to do the move in several commits so that they can be
digested better in logical steps and avoid major break up.

Value 'false' is always passed by all callers of the function, so
there's no need to pass it. Furthermore, since it's false, there's no
need to access poll_fn since RRBP will always be invalid.

The poll_state logic was part of previous implementation (prior to pdch
ul controller) where the ssumption was that TBF could only had 1 POLL
request in transit, which is really not true. With current
infrastructure we don't need this state tracking at all.

This allows easily checking the initial reason to trigger the poll when
either it is received or times out.
Later on this reason can be transformed into an FSM event and sent to
the related FSM.

If Idle TBF timer (X2031) is set to 0, it means the TBF release is
immediately started once all queued data has been scheduled. In that
case, we must set FBI=1 (by setting cv=0) and move to FINISH state.
This used to work over the usual path where X2031 != 0, because release
start will alays happen at a later sched poll time where a dummy LLC
frame is sent and FBI set accordingly.

Old commit getting rid of LLC UI dummy and updating create_new_bsn()
function introduced a bug by not moving update of value m_last_dl_drained_fn
prior to a new break introduced.
As a result, the value is not updated in the case LLC queue becomes
drained but last few bytes are drained at exactly that moment.
Furthermore, then the IDLE tbf timer (X2031, keep_open())) returns always
true since according to it the drain never happened.
The impact of the bug is basically delaying a bit more than expected the
time the TBF stays in IDLE state with the TBF release process yet
to be started.

Under some circumstances, it could happen that a DL TBF is created as a
GPRS TBF due to not yet having enough information of the MS, and only
after the TBF is created the PCU gains that information and upgrades the
MS mode to "EGPRS". Hence, there's the possibility to run into a
situation where a GPRS TBF is attached to a EGPRS MS.
It may also happen sometimes that despite the TBF and the MS be EGPRS,
there's need to further limit the DL MCS to use, eg. MCS1-4 (GMSK).
As a result, when asking for the current DL (M)CS to use, we must tell
the MS which kind of limitations we want to apply. The later reasoning
was already implemented when GPRS+EGPRS multiplexing was added, but the
former was not being checked. Hence, by further spreading through the
call stack the "req_kind_mode" we match both cases.

There's no real use of C++ in that file, and it causes problems when
using llist_head entry macros in future patches adding initial support
for multiple BTS in PCU object, so let's move it to plain C.
Change-Id: Ic771a89fd78b5e66151a5384f0ff6a8895589466
Previous work on BTS class started to get stuff out of the C++ struct
into a C struct (BTS -> struct gprs_glcmac_bts) so that some parts of
it were accessible from C code. Doing so, however, ended up being messy
too, since all code needs to be switching from one object to another,
which actually refer to the same logical component.
Let's instead rejoin the structures and make sure the struct is
accessible and usable from both C and C++ code by rewriting all methods
to be C compatible and converting 3 allocated suboject as pointers.
This way BTS can internally still use those C++ objects while providing
a clean APi to both C and C++ code.

As we integrate osmo-pcu more and more with libosmocore features, it
becomes really hard to use them since libosmocore relies heavily on C
specific compilation features, which are not available in old C++
compilers (such as designated initializers for complex types in FSMs).
GprsMs is right now a quite simple object since initial design of
osmo-pcu made it optional and most of the logic was placed and stored
duplicated in TBF objects. However, that's changing as we introduce more
features, with the GprsMS class getting more weight. Hence, let's move
it now to be a C struct in order to be able to easily use libosmocore
features there, such as FSMs.
Some helper classes which GprsMs uses are also mostly move to C since
they are mostly structs with methods, so there's no point in having
duplicated APIs for C++ and C for such simple cases.
For some more complex classes, like (ul_,dl_)tbf, C API bindings are
added where needed so that GprsMs can use functionalitites from that
class. Most of those APIs can be kept afterwards and drop the C++ ones
since they provide no benefit in general.

According to:
* 3GPP TS 44.060 version 16.0.0 "9.3.1a Delayed release of downlink Temporary Block Flow"
* 3GPP TS 44.064 version 16.0.0 "6.4.2.2 Unconfirmed Information (UI) Dummy command"
LLC UI Dummy frames are to be used when there no more data to send, only
in order to delay the release of a TBF. Hence, while not incorrect per
se, makes no sense to send those LLC UI Dummy frames inserted into
rlcmac blocks which already contain other LLC frames, since the MS in
that case is already being kept active.
It only makes sense to send those LLC UI Dummy frames when we have
nothing else to send, that is, alone inside a RLCMAC block without other
LLC frames.

In previous status, if USF for GPRS-only MS was selected, then EGPRS
TBFs were skipped and either a GPRS TBF was selected or a Dummy Block
was sent. That means the behavior was unfair towards EGPRS TBFs, because
sometimes they were skipped in favor of GPRS ones.
This patch imporves the situation in the above mentioned USF scenario, by
first, under specific conditions, allowing selection of an EGPRS TBF and
then forcing it to transmit in EGPRS-GMSK (MCS1-4) so that the
USF-targeted MS can still decode the USF, while at the same time
providing more fairness by allowing the EGPRS TBF to transmit data.
The specific conditions mentioned above are, mainly, related to the fact
that once a DL data block has been sent, and hence a BSN was assigned to
it, it cannot be retransmitted later using another MCS, since lower
MCS1-4 wouldn't be able to contain higher MCS RLC payload.
The set of conditions could be expanded in the future by also selecting
the EGPRS TBF if retransmition is required and the block to be
retransmitted was originally transmitted as MCS1-4.

For instance if PCU received DL data to be sent to an MS from an SGSN,
and the MS is not currently cached in the PCU (because there's no TBF
active for it), it will page it and transmit the DL data to it.
The SGSN is capable of sending (EGPRS) MS Class information in that same
DL data message, so it's the one responsible for providing that
information if not available at the PCU.
In the PCU if we don't have information about that MS and SGSN didn't
provide us information about it, we cannot assume the MS is going to be
EGPRS capable and even less expecting a specific EGPRS MS class.
So let's drop this code.

If SGSN provides us with MS class information upon DL data, let's use it

Avoid passing tons of params to internal helper function
tbf_nel_dl_assignment() in order to either fetch again the ms object or
create a new one. Let's instead create the ms function earlier if needed
and fill it with all the discovered information prior to calling the
helper function. This provides cleaner code and also better log output.
This way we also avoid trying to fill the MS twice and unneeded
getter+setter for TA.
tbf::imsi(): There' always an ms, so simply forward call to
ms()->imsi().
We can also get rid of assign_imsi, since the modified code is the only
place where it's used and there's already some code in place there to
update the MS. We instead merge it with set_imsi and keep the
duplication code to catch possible bugs from callers.
Move merge_and_clear_ms from tbf class to GprsMS, where it really
belongs.
