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.
osmo_timer_del is an idempotent operation. There is no requirement
to check if it is running. If you don't want a timer to run, delete
it. Maybe one should have called the method _unschedule, _cancel to
make this more clear.
If not compiled with this support, the closing function does not exists,
so it must not be called.
Removed a "#warning", because closing is already supported.
This is required, since we may change slot allocation. In case of a
change, we do not want to be unable to change, if the same TFI on one of
the other slots is already in use by a different TBF (having same TFI, but
on different slot).
The new data structure is required to define slot/TFI assigment for MS
with multislot capability.
Now there are two lists for TBFs: uplink and downlink. It is possible to
have different TBFs with same TFI in the same direction, as long as they
are assigned on different timeslots.
See tbf.txt for description.
Note: This does not implement any multislot support. It defines the new
data structure. Currently only the first slot is assigned.
The signal handler will end the main loop, so clean exit is performed.
The allocated memory is dumped in order to detect memory leaks.
All talloc functions use tall_pcu_ctx context instead of NULL, to track
memory leaks.
Merge is based on jolly_new branch with two modifications.
1. Modified PCU L1 interface.
pcu_l1_if.cpp - common functions for tx and rx messages on L1 interface.
sysmo_sock.cpp - SYSMO-PCU socket functions.
openbts_sock.cpp - OpenBTS-PCU socket functions.
pcuif_proto.h - L1 interface's primitives.
2. Modified encoding of RLC/MAC Control messages, now we use structures and encode_gsm_rlcmac_downlink() function for encode control blocks (without hand-coding).
