We do this by using a trick: library-internal log categories use
negative subsystem numbers, which are converted into positive
array indexes at the time of logging.
library-internal log categories need to be knwo at compile-time,
while application-specified categories now are of unlimited number,
as they are dynamically allocated.
This extends the socket infrastructure in libosmocore to allow
to create non-blocking sockets.
Basically, it replaces the connect0_bind1 parameter by one
flags parameter.
and export the underlying raw value_string arrays instead:
abis_nm_obj_class_names / abis_nm_adm_state_names.
This permits the caller to use get_string_value() as well as
get_value_string().
osmo_sock_init_ofd() is a wrapper around osmo_sock_init() which will
take care of initializing and registering a 'struct osmo_fd' for the
newly-created socket.
* use write_queue where applicable
* provide functions that work on raw FD and those with osmo_fd
* add support for multiple gsmtap instances (no global variables)
The plan is to collect structs and routines for application
setup and remove many copies of the boilerplate code we have
right now. This starts with routines to ignore certain signals
and the stderr init code.
Increment the age of the library because a new interface was added.

minor glitch included in this patch while I was at it:
-#include "linuxlist.h"
+#include <osmocom/core/linuxlist.h>
This can be helpful where we send GSMTAP messages to the loopback
device (localhost, 127.0.0.1) from where the kernel would then
send ICMP reject packets as nobody is listening on that port.
Far from perfect but suits our need thus far.
The viterbi with softbit input is quite cpu-intensive. Since
most received bursts are often mostly error free, you could
use a less cpu intensive algorithm (Fano ?) and with hard bit
input. Then only switch to viterbi soft bit input if the channel
is bad enough to justify it.
Soft output is not implemented as its usefulness for the block
coding is limited.

This patch moves all GSM-specific definitions to include/osmocom/gsm.
Moreover, the headers in include/osmocore/ have been moved to
include/osmocom/core.
This has been proposed by Harald Welte and Sylvain Munaunt.
Tested with `make distcheck'.

The logging categories are registered by the applications, like
osmo-nitb, during startup. Thus, the VTY have to provide the logging
commands according to the logging categories that the application
has registered.
Before this patch, the VTY contained the logging categories
hardcoded. Thus, any change in the logging categories by the
application would not be shown by the VTY.
So far, this was not a problem because all applications used the
same logging categories. However, according to what Harald told
me, this may be a problem in the future.
This patch resolve the lack of integration between the logging
framework and the VTY by generating the VTY logging commands
from the logging categories registered.
Since this patch changes one function of the libosmocore API,
it follows another patch for the openbsc application to get in
sync with the new function layout.
I have reworked and renamed the functions:
* log_vty_category_string()
* log_vty_level_string()
to provide the new ones that generate the exact output that VTY
requires.
This patch does not release the memory allocated by
talloc_zero_size() to store the VTY strings for the commands
and the description. I found no exit function that can clean
up resources that were allocated.
It is easier to call these two functions from bindings than
wrapping the vty structure and figuring out the alignment of
the enum on all different ABIs.
