Remove the paragraph about writing to the Free Software Foundation's
mailing address. The FSF has changed addresses in the past, and may do
so again. In 2021 this is not useful, let's rather have a bit less
boilerplate at the start of source files.

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
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.

Add support of the second NSVC in the info indication.
Add support to update a previous NS configuration.
Allow to update of a NS-VC while the NSE is still available over the
second.

We should really be using monotonic clock in all places that
gettimeofday is used right now. Since clock_gettime() uses timespec,
let's move all code to use timespecs instead to avoid having to convert
in several places between timespec and timeval.
Actually use osmo_clock_gettime() shim everywhere to be able to control
the time everywhere from unit tests.

rename the function sgsn_ns_cb -> gprs_bssgp_ns_cb.
To allow writing and reading the same configuration, the pcu needs to register
all vty commands before reading the configuration. This callback
is required to register NS based vty commands

Receive the mnc_3_digits flag from the PCU interface.
Bump the PCU interface to 9.

Many files include unnecessary headers and don't include headers which
are actually used. Because of that combined with the fact that OsmoPCU
is a mixture of C and C++, it makes it hard to modularize code. Fix
this (using iwyu [1] tool):
* add missing headers
* remove unused headers

The leak rate sent to the SGSN does not reflect the current CS level,
lost frames, and control message overhead. So the SGSN cannot do
proper queue control under non-optimal conditions.
This commit computes the leak rate for the last flow control interval
by computing the maximum theoretical leak rate and basically
substracting control blocks, nacked blocks, and reduced block sizes
due to CS downgrade. By using this approach, the value will by more
stable on low load, where the value will tend to be near the value
derived from the configuration. On full load the transmitted value is
completely derived from the measurements.
Note that the MS default values are no adapted to the adapted BVC
leak rate, since a single MS which has a lower link quality would
otherwise be reducing the rate of another MS with good radio
conditions, which would not make much sense if they did not share any
PDCH.

Currently the signal S_NS_ALIVE_EXP emitted by the NS layer if the
alive check has timed out too often is ignored. This prevents the PCU
from reconnecting to the SGSN if it has not been accessible for some
time.
This commit modifies nsvc_signal_cb to reset the NSCV if
S_NS_ALIVE_EXP is sent, so that the PCU continues to send NS RESET
message if that happened.

Some struct timeval pointer arguments do not have the const qualifier,
albeit the methods do not write to the structures. The next commit
will change related pointers to const, so this commit provides the
required constness.

Currently the tag value in FLOW CONTROL BVC messages is always 1.
This commit changes the implementation to increment that value with
each of the FLOW CONTROL BVC messages that is sent to the SGSN.
Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
The specification 28.018, allows to transmit the average LLC downlink
queueing delay in FLOW CONTROL BVC messages (BVC Measurement IE, see
GSM 28.018, 10.4.4 and 11.3.7).
This commit extends gprs_bssgp_pcu.cpp to compute the average delay
time between two subsequent FLOW CONTROL BVC messages. The average is
implemented as an arithmetic average without any weighting.

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.
Ticket: SYS#390

For mocking/unit-testing/emulation (and a dual trx-systems) having
global state is quite bad. Cut back on the usage of the global
struct gprs_rlcmac_bts. It also makes the complexity of certain
routines more clear.
The PCU does not properly re-set the state when the connection to the
BTS is lost (and the SGSN potentially is re-started during that). This
results in the BSSGP BVCI > 1 remaining blocked and no data will be
accepted by the SGSN.
Add the '-e' option and exit the PCU when the BSSGP/NS are getting
destroyed.
The hack for resetting BSSGP instance is removed and now performed
whenever the NS state changes to UNBLOCKED.
The BSSGP instance is now created only once, as it should be.
Received STATUS messages are ignored as they should be.
The creation and destruction of BSSGP/NS instances is now handled by
layer 1 interface alone.
