This API is not really needed anymore, since anyway it works under the
assumption there can only be 1 POLL in transit per TBF, which isn't
necessarily true.

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

Make sure an unreserved FN is picked and reserved when allocating and
scheduling an SBA.
In practice this has no change in behavior right now, since anyway using
an offset of 52 FNs ensure no USF or POLL has alredy been scheduled that
far in the future. Since it's also impossible to allocate more than 1
SBA per PDCH and RTS FN, we are also safe about multiple SBAs being
allocated, because we use a hardcoded offset of 52.
However, that could change in the future, when we dynamically tweak the
current offset of 52 FN based on information from BTS about its AGCH
queue load:
* If load is high, we may need to increase the offset since it
will take more time for the BTS to transmit the TBF and hence we must
reserve a TBF starting time further in the future (higher FN).
* If load turns low, we may schedule next SBA a bit more nearby in time
than the previously allocated SBA, hence here there could be a
collision.

When the scheduler detects it's time to receive a UL block due to a
scheduled poll, if that polling is done on a UL TBF, then use its USF if
available instead of using USF_UNUSED (=7) when sending a DL block on
that same FN.
This is not really needed for correct work, since MS take care
themselves of scheduling a UL block when they receive the poll (RRBP)
some time before, and don't check the USF at the time of transmitting.
In any case, it helps understand better when looking at pcap traces that
indeed it a UL block from that MS was requested, instead of setting USF
to 7.

Right now we handle different types of UL allocations in different
classes like PollAllocator and SBAllocator, and they usually don't take
into account the other one in most cases. Furthermore, those objects are
usually per-BTS object, instead of per PDCH object.
This is a first step towards having a unified per-PDCH controller which
takes care of controlling what is scheduled and hence expected on the
uplink. Each PDCH has a UL Controller which keeps track of all reserved
uplink frame, be it SB, RRBP poll or USF assigned, all under the same
API.
As a first step, only the SBA part is fully implemented and used (being
it the easiest part to replace); TBF poll+usf will come in follow-up
patches later on. As a result, the SBAllocator per-BTS class dissappears
but some of its code is refactored/reused to provide more features to the
gprs_rlcmac_sba object, which is also further integrated into the new UL
Controller.

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.

Since a while ago, the data architecture was changed so that TBF is

Before this patch, allocate_usf() was implemented to only allocate 1 USF
per TBF, regardless of the available ul_slot mask.
As a result, only 1 slot at max was allocated to any TBF. That's a pity
because usual multislot classes like 12 support up to 2 UL slots per TBF
(in common TS with DL).
This patch reworks allocate_usf() to allocate as many UL multislots as
possible (given mslot class, current USF availability, TFI availability,
related DL TBF slots for the same MS, etc.).
As a result, it can be seen that AllocTest results change substantially
and maximum concurrent TBF allocation drops under some conditions.
That happens due to more USFs being reserved (because each TBF has now
more UL slots reserved). Hence now USF exhaustion becomes the usual
limitation factor as per the number of concurrent TBFs than can be
handled per TRX (as opposed to TFIs previously).
Some of the biggest limitations in test appear though because really
high end multislot classes are used, which can consume high volumes of
UL slots (USFs), and which are probably not the most extended devices in
the field.
Moreover, in general the curren timeslot allocator for a given
multislot class will in general try to optimize the DL side gathering
most of the possible timeslots there. That means, for instance on ms
class 12 (4 Tx, 4Rx, 5 Sum), 4 DL slots and 1 UL slot will still be
selected. But in the case where only 3 PDCHs are available, then with
this new multi-slot UL support a TBF will reserve 3 DL slots and 2 UL
slots, while before this patch it would only taken 1 UL slot instead of
2.
This USF exhaustion situation can be improved in the future by
parametrizing (VTY command?) the maximum amount of UL slots that a TBF
can reserve, making for instance a default value of 2, meaning usual
classes can gather up 2 UL timelosts at a time while forbidding high-end
hungry classes to gather up to 8 UL timeslots.
Another approach would be to dynamically limit the amount of allowed
reservable UL timeslots based on current USF reservation load.

A new nacc_fsm is introduced per MS object, with its partner priv
structure struct nacc_fsm_ctx, which exists and is available in the MS
object only during the duration of the NACC procedure.
The NACC context is created on an MS whenever a Pkt Cell Change
Notification is received on Uplink RLCMAC, which asks for neighbor
information of a given ARFCN+BSIC.
First, the target ARFCN+BSIC needs to be translated into a CGI-PS
(RAC+CI) address. That's done by asking the BSC through the Neighbour
Resolution Service available in osmo-bsc using the CTRL interface.
Once the CGI-PS of the target cell is known, PCU starts a RIM RAN-INFO
request against the SGSN (which will route the request as needed), and
wait for a response containing the SI bits from the target cell.
After the SI are received, the scheduler is instructed to eventually
poll a TBF for the MS originating the CCN, so that we can send the SI
encapsulated into multiple Packet Neighbor Cell Data messages on the
downlink.
One all the SI bits are sent, the scheduler is instructed to send a
Packet Cell Change Continue message.
Once the message above has been sent, the FSM autodestroys itself.
Caches are also introduced in this patch which allows for re-using
recently known translations ARFCN+BSIC -> CGI-PS and CGI-PS -> SI_INFO
respectively.

Sine we don't yet implement properly all resegmentation of blocks from
same MCS family type, when requiring a GMSK DL block (due to GPRS+EGPRS
multiplexing limitations) we need to skip retransmitions, otherwise we'd
be incorrectly picking a DL block which was already built with a
potentially higher MCS value.
The "DL_PRIO_NEW_DATA" prio serves two purposes:
* There's new data to send
* There's some nacked data to be retransmitted
The 2nd purpose has, later on, more priority over the 1st one when the tbf
is selected (see gprs_rlcmac_dl_tbf::take_next_bsn()).
Until now we were handling correctly the case where the tbf was skipped
in case the prio was to resend unacked data (DL_PRIO_SENT_DATA), but
was incorrectly selected when it'd send nacked data. Let's fix it by
specifically checking w->resend_needed() < 0.

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.

The TBF can sometimes be detached from an MS, for eg. when switching
from one MS object to another due to them being merged after we found
duplicate objects upon receiving new information from it, but that
change is instantaneous so it shouldn't be a problem. The only other way
where an MS can be detached from an MS is during the end of its (or the
MS) life, where it is not sending data anymore.
Hence, it is safe to drop those checks for MS not being null. Those
being trigger, it should be considered a bug.

Before, we used tho have a BTs object split into 2 parts, a C
gprs_rlcmac_bts struct and a C++ BTS struct, and "bts_data" naming was

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.

Both values (optionally) set (forced) by VTY and the values received
from PCUIF were stored in the same variable, meaning that for instance
the PCUIF values wouldn't really be used if someone applied eg "no cs"
during runtime.
This commit does something similar to what was already done for the
max_(m)cs fields. We store PCUIF values in one place and VTY ones in
another place, and then trigger a bts object internal process to find
out exactly which initial CS should it be using.

Currently the BTS object (and gprs_rlcmac_bts struct) are used to hold
both PCU global fields and BTS specific fields, all mangled together.
The BTS is even accessed in lots of places by means of a singleton.
This patch introduces a new struct gprs_pcu object aimed at holding all
global state, and several fields are already moved from BTS to it. The
new object can be accessed as global variable "the_pcu", reusing and
including an already exisitng "the_pcu" global variable only used for
bssgp related purposes so far.
This is only a first step towards having a complete split global pcu and
BTS, some fields are still kept in BTS and will be moved over follow-up
smaller patches in the future (since this patch is already quite big).
So far, the code still only supports one BTS, which can be accessed
using the_pcu->bts. In the future that field will be replaced with a
list, and the BTS singletons will be removed.
The cur_fn output changes in TbfTest are actually a side effect fix,
since the singleton main_bts() now points internally to the_pcu->bts,
hence the same we allocate and assign in the test. Beforehand, "the_bts"
was allocated in the stack while main_bts() still returned an unrelated
singleton BTS object instance.

When allocating multiple slots for a UE the following example

44.060 or 45.002 only specifies contigous however it was unclear

Only the example 45.002 B.3 in release 12 cleared this up.
It gives an example for a multi slot class 5 UE which has 7 possible
configuration this means the rolled over is not allowed.
Multislot class type 2 UE doesn't have this limitation.
Further if a UE supports 8 time slots this is not a limitation because

The pointer is indeed misaligned, but it's not actually a bug, because
the pointer is never derreferenced. That happens during
llist_for_each_entry operation where it does cast the pointer but it

To workaround the issue, simply defer casting it by using llist_for_each

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.

Moreover, if more tbf candidates are to be added for other type of

LLC UI Dummy frames are to be used when there no more data to send, only

It only makes sense to send those LLC UI Dummy frames when we have

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.

There are some restrictions to have both GPRS-only and EGPRS MS attached
to the same MS:
* Any MS needs to be able to successfully decode a DL block at least
every 18 DL blocks (360 ms). That means a Dl block with CS1-4 must be
sent at least once during that time.
* Any MS needs to be able to decode USF targeting it. GPRS-only MS can
successfully decode USF from DL blocks using GMSK: CS1-4 and MCS1-4.
In this patch, if USF of a GPRS-only MS is selected, then all DL EGPRS
TBFs are discarded from data block selection. However, this logic can be
further improved later by still allowing selection of DL EGPRS TBFs and
then forcing construction of a DL EGPRS data block using MCS1-4.

The assumption that TLLI 0x00000000 is invalid and can be used
as the initializer is wrong. Similar to TMSI, 0x00000000 is a
perfectly valid value, while 0xffffffff is reserved - use it.
According to 3GPP TS 23.003, section 2.4, a TMSI/P-TMSI with
all 32 bits equal to 1 is special and shall not be allocated by
the network. The reason is that it must be stored on the SIM,
where 'ff'O represents the erased state. According to section
2.6 of the same document, a local/foreign TLLI is derived from
P-TMSI, so the same rule applies to TLLI.
I manually checked and corrected all occurances of 'tlli' in the
code. The test expectations have been adjusted with this command:
$ find tests/ -name "*.err" | xargs sed -i "s/0x00000000/0xffffffff/g"
so there should be no behavior change. The only exception is
the 'TypesTest', where TLLI 0xffffffff is being encoded and
expected in the hexdump, so I regenerated the test output.

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

We can also get rid of assign_imsi, since the modified code is the only

This is another step forward towards a more clear data model where a TBF
always has a MS object (which may be lacking some information, and at a
later point when more information is found, it may actually be a
duplicated MS object and hence one duplicate removed and the TBF moved
to the object being kept).
This helps for instance in removing duplicated information stored in
the TBF which is really per MS, like ms_class, ta, etc. Since there's
always a MS object there's no need to keep a duplicate in both classes
in case there's no MS object.
It can already be seen looking at unit test logging that this kind of
data model already provides better information.
Some unit test parts were needed to adapt to the new model too.

It seems that some gcc versions do not consider the priority of
"C" __attribute__((constructor)) definitions in the same order as
they do C++ static initializers, which are called in the order in which
they appear in the compile unit (source file).
The problem has been observed at least in a
environment based on T2 SDE with GCC 6.3.0 and binutils 2.28.
Let's work around this by making sure the __attribute__((constructor))
function always gets the highest priority value permitted by gcc (101).

Fixes consistent crash under some specific scenarios explained in
OS#4756.
The crash was caused due to a bug in channel allocator algorithm
incorrectly populating tbf->pdch[] array as a result of mismatching
first_ts and resulting pdch selected slot bitmask.
The issue happens because when allocating a UL TBF in allocator B, the
subset is always further forced into allocating one single TS. As a
result, on that branch several variables are updated, but first_ts was
not.
The field used to be updated in older versions, but a bug was introduced
during code refactoring in commit listed below (31 Jan 2018).

Otherwise the TBFs are kept, and hence PCU will continue reserving resources and
DL data queued will still be sent over the air, despite the MS not
listening anymore on the PDCH.

Output of all diag in different lines is really confusing, since the
user reads a timeout ocurred and then later in another line something
like "Downlink ACK was received" while no GSMTAP message shows any ACK.

Introduce a address_type in the NSVC configuration pass the given
protocol. The remote_ip is network byte order, the default
encoding for in_addr and in6_addr.

This reverts commit 38aaa10ed4.
It was to early because the frequency hopping wasn't ready to be merged.

This is a left-over from an earlier version of [1] that makes
Coverity think that there can be NULL pointer dereference,
even despite we assert(pdch != NULL).

Fixes: CID#214230
The following test cases verify coding of the hopping parameters:
+ (RR) Immediate Assignment
- TC_pcuif_fh_imm_ass_ul_egprs,
- TC_pcuif_fh_imm_ass_ul,
- TC_pcuif_fh_imm_ass_dl,
+ (RLC/MAC) Packet Uplink/Downlink Assignment:
- TC_pcuif_fh_pkt_ass_ul,
- TC_pcuif_fh_pkt_ass_dl,
all of them pass with this (and the upcoming) change applied.

It's quite odd to see that in write_packet_downlink_assignment()
we initialize an 'RlcMacDownlink_t', so then the caller can use
the power of CSN.1 codec to generate the final sequence of bytes
to be transmitted, while in write_packet_uplink_assignment() we
already compose the final RLC/MAC message straight away using
the low-level bitvec API (like bitvec_write_field()).
I guess the reason is that at the time of writing this code, the
CSN.1 codec was not stable enough, so it was safer to generate
the message 'by hand'. This would also explain why we *decode*
the final RLC/MAC message in create_ul_ass() right after encoding.
Rewrite write_packet_uplink_assignment(), so now it initializes
a caller-provided 'RlcMacDownlink_t' structure. Given that it's
allocated on heap using talloc_zero(), do not initialize presence
indicators of fields that are not present in the message.
This would facilitate handling of frequency hopping parameters
in the upcoming changes, in particular we can now introduce a
function that would compose Frequency Parameters IE for both
write_packet_{downlink,uplink}_assignment().
Tested manually by running a GPRS-enabled network, as well as by
running test cases from ttcn3-pcu-test => no regressions observed.

In order to be able to encode frequency hopping parameters, let's
pass a const pointer to 'gprs_rlcmac_pdch' (PDCH slot) directly,
instead of passing all related parameters separately.

According to 3GPP TS 44.060, section 12.12 "Packet Timing Advance",
the 'TIMING_ADVANCE_VALUE' field is optional, and takes 6 bits
if present. This means that a value that fits in range 0..63
(inclusive) can be encoded (0b111111 == 63).
It's possible that tbf->ta() returns GSM48_TA_INVALID == 220,
so the bitvec API would encode only 6 LSBs of it:
220 & 0b111111 == 28
Let's ensure that the 'TIMING_ADVANCE_VALUE' is present iff
tbf->ta() returns a correct (0 <= x <= 63), and absent otherwise.

Initialize the bit vector to use already allocated memory,
so we would not need to allocate additional 23 bytes and
copy them from the bit vector to a msgb.

Let's create the MS object early if doesn't exist and fill in the
information, so that we can operate on it in an early way (for instance,
logging macros), this way it's easier to trace the lifecycle of
subscribers.

In get_paging_mi(), before this, an encoded buffer of Mobile Identity bytes is
returned. Code paths following this repeatedly decode the Mobile Identity
bytes, e.g. for logging. Also, in get_paging_mi(), since the TMSI is read in
from a different encoding than a typical Mobile Identity IE, the TMSI was
manually encoded into a typical Mobile Identity IE. This is essentially a code
dup of osmo_mobile_identity_encode(). Stop this madness.
Instead, in get_paging_mi(), return a decoded struct osmo_mobile_identity. Code
paths after this use the struct osmo_mobile_identity directly without repeated
decoding.
At the point of finally needing an encoded Mobile Identity IE (in
Encoding::write_paging_request()), do a proper osmo_mobile_identity_encode().
Since this may return errors, add an rc check for the caller of
write_paging_request(), gprs_rlcmac_paging_request().
A side effect is stricter validation of the Mobile Identity passing through the
Paging code path. Before, invalid MI might have passed through unnoticed.

Note: subsequent patch Iad845acb0096b75dc453105c9c16b2252879b4ca will change to
passing a struct osmo_mobile_identity in the Paging code path, instead of
passing the encoded IE data.
