The current code tries to recover from dropped connections and resets the
pcu state so it can keep running. However, this never worked correctly
which is why the -e option is used. This option exits the pcu as soon as
the internal state needs to be reset.
This patch removes this option and makes this behaviour default.

The current code keeps a reference to all tbfs in the bts and another
reference in the pdch. This allows for the possibility of both lists to
go out of sync.
This patch removes the pdch-specific list of ul and dl tbfs and uses the
lists in the bts to lookup tbfs everywhere.
Performance for going through the global list is not an issue yet. We
can optimize this later and in a better way.

The current code would only ever assign one PDCH for the initial
assignment (from CCCH). Only if reuse_tbf is called the algorithm would
actually use multiple DL PDCHs if possible.
This patch introduced a tbf attribute upgrade_to_multislot that is set
if we have multiple PDCH configured, and support multislot assignment,
but can only assign a single PDCH (alloc_algorithm_b, parameter single
is set). In this case after the assignment completes (and the MS is
listening on a PDCH) we resend a DL assignment though the PACCH and this
time we can assign multiple timeslots.
The current code does not properly distinguish between DL assignments to
reuse a tbf (after it was put in state WAIT_RELEASE) and DL assignments
for an active tbf to change the allocation of the PDCH timeslots.
This patch introduces a new variable was_releasing which remembers if
trigger_dl_ass() was called with a tbf in state WAIT_RELEASE. In that
case we have to set the CONTROL_ACK field in the download assignment.
This should allow us to send DL assignments to change PDCH TS allocation
of a tbf before we enter FLOW state.
Counter j must be wrapped to prevent beeing negative, when it is
initialized. This wrapping happens, if TS 0 is used for PDCH in
combination with regular GPRS phones (MS class 12 or similar).
Move functions resend_needed(), mark_for_resend(), update(),
move_window(), state(), count_unacked() out of v_b directly into the UL
window and provide a function get_state in v_b to access the v_b
elements.
After reduce_rx_window() and update_rx_win_max() was called, one or more TS
might be removed. tx_win_min and tx_win_max must be adjusted to the new range
of allocated slots.
The algorithm does not support more than 5 TS on downlink for type 1 MS.
Supporting more than 5 TS would require adding more complexity to this
algorithm. MS that support more than 4 (or 5) TS on downlink are rare,
if they really exist.
Create a select_ul_slots which is very (95%) similar to the
select_dl_slots handling. This needs to be refactored and the
todo for multiple uplink slots should be handled too.
Add a warning about a potential failure on a busy PCU.
The naming of RX/TX still looks fishy and it should use DL/UL instead.
Work on pointers right now. We could introduce a struct with the window
min and max and pass this struct. The usage of 'D' appears wrong in the
ul_usage..
The allocation in the TBF/BTS code is quite complex. In parts this
is due the assignment and requests occuring under differen circumstances.
Attempt to re-create the commono scenarios.
Remove the bogus msclass check in gprs_rlcmac_tbf::update as the
allocation code will check the ms class anyway.
Fixes a bug introduced in commit 402cdc. That commit sets direction to
zero so setting it to 1 should be done after the call to
csnStreamInit().
This issue was discovered by the rlcmac test.
1. ar.direction variable was not initialized
2. overrunning array "data->RLC_DATA" of 20 bytes at byte offset 22 using index "i" (which evaluates to 22)
The first byte in data_ind->msgUnitParam.u8Buffer is not part of the GSM
frame, but something else, it is also skipped in the call to
pcu_rx_data_ind_pdtch().
This patch fixes GSM RLC/MAC UL packet decoding in wireshark, especially
ACK/NACK packets are now displayed correctly (amongst others).
It is possible that certain UL ACK messages are not sent when there
are many many uplink and downlink assignments. Try to be more fair
and schedule them round-robin. This way no starvation should occur.
Use a formula like it is used with TCP. This can help to make
decisions about if frames should be dropped or not at the time
we enqueue them.
This code will store two timeval structs in fron the of the
actual data and compute the average at the time of the dequeue.
