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.

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.

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

Old commit getting rid of LLC UI dummy and updating create_new_bsn()

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

Since a while ago, the data architecture was changed so that TBF is
guaranteed to always have a MS object associated. Hence, it makes no
sense to pass the MS object as a separate param as we can take it from

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.

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.

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.
Change-Id: I7d12c896c5ded659ca9d3bff4cf3a3fc857db9dd
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.

Multislot class type 2 UE doesn't have this limitation.

When both TBFs (Dl, Ul), are detached, ms_detach_tbf() will call
ms_start_timer() which will hold a reference of the MS (ms_ref()) and
wait for X seconds (VTY config, T=-2030, 60 seconds by default) before
unrefing the MS, which will trigger ms_update_status() finally (ref==0)
and will in turn call cb.ms_idle(), which will tell the ms_storage to
free the MS.
This mechanism is used to keep MS objects around for a certain time so
that when new TBFs are established, we have cached interesting
information about the MS, ready to use.
However, in AllocTest, tons of MS are allocated in a loop calling a
function (such as test_alloc_b_ul_dl()). In that function, a BTS is
allocated in the stack and at the end of the function BTS::cleanup() is
called due to implicit destructor, which ends up calling
ms_storage::cleanup() which removes all MS from its list and frees them
*if they are not idle*. The problem here, is that due to T=-2030, an
extra reference is hold and hence the ms is not considered idle
(ms_is_idle() checks ms->ref==0). As a result, the MS is never freed,
because we don't use libosmocore mainloop here (and in any case, it
would take 60 seconds to free it).
By setting the timeout of T=-2030 to 0, ms_start_timer will avoid using
the timer and will also avoid holding the extra reference, hence
allowing ms_storage to free the object during cleanup().
This fix really helps in improving performance for AllocTest specially
after MS object contains a rate_ctr. As tons of MS objects were left
alive, they stood in the rate_ctr single per-process queue, making the
test last crazy amount of time and spending 50% of the time or more
iterating the list full of MS related rate counters.

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.

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

se, makes no sense to send those LLC UI Dummy frames inserted into

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.

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

This is another step forward towards a more clear data model where a TBF

later point when more information is found, it may actually be a
duplicated MS object and hence one duplicate removed and the TBF moved

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.

data model already provides better information.

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.

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.

The TLLI is tried to be updated later anyway during tbf_alloc_ul(), but
this way it's clear that information is stored where it belongs as soon
as possible. The change already shows clearer log lines in TbfTest.err.

It's perfectly fine receiving a Resource Request message under some
circumstances (as stated in the comment added in the commit).
To print issues only under non-expected circumstances, the function
rcv_resource_request need to be refactored:
* Destroying older UL_TBF is delayed because it is needed further
down.
* When the old UL_TBF is FINISHED, it's an acceptable time to receive a
Resource request, so we check if that's the case and don't print a
warning in that case.

If the information is not found in the message, 0 (unknown MS class)
will be returned. If the MS already had some previous information on the
MS class, let's not lose it by setting it back to 0.
Take the opportunity to drop related log lines which are no needed,
since set_(egprs_)ms_class() functions already log the value changes.

There's no real good explanation on why the DL TBF is dropped there,
since PKT RESOUCE REQUEST is used basically during UL TBF establishment.
Also, as decribed by TS 44.060 11.2.16 "Packet Resource Request":
"""
This message is sent on the PACCH by the mobile station to the network
to request a change in the uplink resources assigned.
"""

Since commit 322456ed47 (and previous
one), it is expected that a tbf object ALWAYS has a MS object referend
to it, even if it's a temporary copy which will later be merged when
TLLI/IMSI is retrieved and it is found that several MS objects relate to
the same MS.
The purpose of set_tlli_from_ul was mainly to update TBF's ms() to
old_ms before going through usual tbf->update_ms() path. That's not
really needed since ms() is already always set and TBFs for old_ms are
already freed in update_ms() and children function.

This patch is a set of tightly related changes:
- group all RACH.ind parameters into struct 'rach_ind_params';
- group Channel Request parameters into struct 'chan_req_params';
- get rid of egprs_mslot_class_from_ra(), priority_from_ra(),
and is_single_block(), introduce unified parse_rach_ind();
- improve logging, get rid of redundant information.
This is needed for proper EGPRS Packet Channel Request handling.

According to 3GPP TS 44.004, section 7.4a, two alternative RACH block
formats are specified: 8 bit (1 octet) and 11 bit. This change adds
CSN.1 definitions for 11 bit EGPRS Packet Channel Request as per
3GPP TS 44.060, table 11.2.5a.2.

I faced a problem while working on EGPRS Packet Channel Request
coding support: the unit test I wrote for it was passing when
compiled with AddressSanitizer, but failing when compiled
without it o_O. Somehow this was observed only with GCC 10.
Here is a part the standard output diff for that unit test:
*** testEGPRSPktChReq ***
decode_egprs_pkt_ch_req(0x2b5) returns 0
- ==> One Phase Access
+ ==> unknown 0xdd5f4e00
decode_egprs_pkt_ch_req(0x14a) returns 0
- ==> One Phase Access
+ ==> unknown 0xdd5f4e00
decode_egprs_pkt_ch_req(0x428) returns 0
- ==> Short Access
+ ==> unknown 0xdd5f4e01
At the same time, debug output of the CSN.1 decoder looked fine.
So WYSINWYG (What You See Is *NOT* What You Get)! As it turned
out, this was happening because I used an enumerated type to
represent the sub-type of EGPRS Packet Channel Request.
typedef struct
{
EGPRS_PacketChannelRequestType_t Type; // <-- enum
EGPRS_PacketChannelRequestContent_t Content;
} EGPRS_PacketChannelRequest_t;
The problem is that length of an enumerated field, more precisely
the amount of bytes it takes in the memory, is compiler/machine
dependent. While the CSN.1 decoder assumes that the field holding
sequential number of the chosen element is one octet long, so its
address is getting casted to (guint8 *) and the value is written
to the first MSB.
// csnStreamDecoder(), case CSN_CHOICE:
pui8 = pui8DATA(data, pDescr->offset);
*pui8 = i; // [ --> xx .. .. .. ]
Let's make sure that none of the existing RLC/MAC definitions is
using enumerated types, and add a warning comment to CSN_CHOICE.
Affected CSN.1 definitions (unit test output adjusted):
- Additional_access_technologies_struct_t,
- Channel_Request_Description_t.

We have same kind of object splitted into two layers, in coding_scheme
and gprs_coding_scheme. Let's merge them together and get rid of the
class, which is not really useful because it's only a set of functions
operating on one enum value.
This change also fixes gcc 10.1.0 error about memseting a complex type
in rlc.h init().

In normal conditions ACKing of UL blocks is only sent every
SEND_ACK_AFTER_FRAMES (20) frames. Which means if CV=0 is received (and
hence no more packets are received) less than 20 frames before a lost,
the PCU won't ask for a retransmission and wait there until some timer
destroys the TBF.
This issue is shown by TTCN3 test PCU_Tests.ttcn
TC_ul_intermediate_retrans.
Unit tests triggering this condition are adapted. Some similar tests are
not triggering it because BSN/CV relation being used is totally wrong
(like CV=0 being sent on a BSN with previous value than others).

Newer gcc 10.1.0 is erroring due to memset being applied on a complex

struct.

The function is simply setting the ta on the ms, so simply make sure ta
is set on callers before passing the ms object.

It's really non-sense from architectural point of view to pass an
optional pointer to the MS holding the TBF and creating it otherwise.
TBFs shouldn't be creating MS they belong too.
This simple change requiring so many code line changes really exhibits
how badly entangled the object relationship is.
Another commit will follow doing the same for dl tbf.

Original file from wireshark.git (packet-gsm_csn1.c) is being built and
maintained as a C file. There's no real need for us to maintain it as a
C++, and doing so will make both files derive over time (as already
happened). Let's keep it as a C compiler (which btw seems to be more
strict) to make it easier to port patches back and forth wireshark.git.
Take the chance to move some declarations we added to csn1.h to be able
to build it out of wireshark. Let's keep those in a separate header file
to ease looking for differences.
