Recent patch I563764af1d28043e909234ebb048239125ce6ecd introduced returning
NULL from rate_ctr_group_alloc() when the index passed already exists.
Instead of returning NULL, find an unused group index and use that, adjust the
error message.
In stats_test.c, adjust, and also assert allocated counter group indexes
everywhere.
Rationale:
The original patch causes osmo-sgsn to crash as soon as the second subscriber
attempts to establish an MM context. Of course osmo-sgsn is wrong to a) fail to
check a NULL return value and crash and b) to fail to allocate an MM context
just because the rate counter group could not be allocated (it still rejects
the MM context completely if rate_ctr_group_alloc() fails).
Nevertheless, the price we pay for rate counter correctness is, at least in
this instance, way too high: osmo-sgsn becomes completely unusable for more
than one subscriber.
Numerous other places exist where rate_ctr_group_alloc() is called with a
constant index number; from a quick grep magic I found these possible breaking
points:
osmo-sgsn/src/gprs/gb_proxy.c:1431: cfg->ctrg = rate_ctr_group_alloc(tall_bsc_ctx, &global_ctrg_desc, 0);
osmo-sgsn/src/gprs/gprs_sgsn.c:139: sgsn->rate_ctrs = rate_ctr_group_alloc(tall_bsc_ctx, &sgsn_ctrg_desc, 0);
osmo-sgsn/src/gprs/gprs_sgsn.c:270: ctx->ctrg = rate_ctr_group_alloc(ctx, &mmctx_ctrg_desc, 0);
osmo-sgsn/src/gprs/gtphub.c:888: b->counters_io = rate_ctr_group_alloc(osmo_gtphub_ctx,
>phub_ctrg_io_desc, 0);
osmo-bsc/src/libfilter/bsc_msg_acc.c:87: lst->stats = rate_ctr_group_alloc(lst, &bsc_cfg_acc_list_desc, 0);
osmo-pcu/src/bts.cpp:228: m_ratectrs = rate_ctr_group_alloc(tall_pcu_ctx, &bts_ctrg_desc, 0);
osmo-pcu/src/tbf.cpp:793: tbf->m_ctrs = rate_ctr_group_alloc(tbf, &tbf_ctrg_desc, 0);
osmo-pcu/src/tbf.cpp:879: tbf->m_ul_egprs_ctrs = rate_ctr_group_alloc(tbf, &tbf_ul_egprs_ctrg_desc, 0);
osmo-pcu/src/tbf.cpp:880: tbf->m_ul_gprs_ctrs = rate_ctr_group_alloc(tbf, &tbf_ul_gprs_ctrg_desc, 0);
osmo-pcu/src/tbf.cpp:970: tbf->m_dl_egprs_ctrs = rate_ctr_group_alloc(tbf, &tbf_dl_egprs_ctrg_desc, 0);
osmo-pcu/src/tbf.cpp:977: tbf->m_dl_gprs_ctrs = rate_ctr_group_alloc(tbf, &tbf_dl_gprs_ctrg_desc, 0);
osmo-pcu/src/tbf.cpp:1475: ul_tbf->m_ctrs = rate_ctr_group_alloc(ul_tbf, &tbf_ctrg_desc, 0);
osmo-pcu/src/bts.cpp:226: m_ratectrs = rate_ctr_group_alloc(tall_pcu_ctx, &bts_ctrg_desc, 1);
We can fix all of these callers and then reconsider returning NULL, but IMO
even into the future, rate counter group indexes are not something worth
failing to provide service for. For future bugs we should keep the automatic
index picking in case of index collisions. We will get an error message barfed
and can fix the issue in our own time, while the application remains completely
usable, and even the rate counters can still be queried (at wrong indexes, but
life is tough).

Check that no group with the given name and index already exist before
allocating it. Add corresponding test case.

In Change-Id Ifc6ac824f5dae9a848bb4a5d067c64a69eb40b56 we introduce
name mangling to replace any '.' in counter (group) names to be
converted to ':'. Let's test for this functionality explicitly as part
of the stats_test.

The rate_ctr.c code would do this mangling automatically, but let's
avoid using this from new versions of our code for
simplicity/explicitness.

As rate counters are automatically exposed on the CTRL interface,
we need to make sure they don't contain special characters such as '.'
which are not permitted/supported by CTRL.
In order to be able to run old versions of osmocom programs with
libosmocore versions after this commit, we introduce some special
name mangling: Any '.' in the names are replaced with ':' during
counter group registration, if valid identifiers can be obtained
this way.

The function pointer expects the last arg as int64_t, stats_test.c uses
an int instead. Fix the argument type as well as the printf format for it.
Fixes this compiler warning seen on our FreeBSD build slave:

This tests uses a dedicated test reported to check several aspects of
the value reporting.
- addition/removal of stats reporter
- addition/removal of counters/items
- setting of max_class
- initial value flush
- updating single counters/items
- reporter retrieval
- enable/disable

Since the the stat_item and stats functions and data types are meant
to be exported, they get an osmo_ prefix.

[hfreyther: Prepended the enum values too. This was requested by
Jacob]
Currently each stat item has a separate index value which basically
counts each single value added to the item and which can be used by
a reporter to get all new values that have not been reported yet.
The drawback is, that such an index must be stored for each stat
item.
This commit introduces a global index which is incremented for each
new stat item value. This index is then stored together with the item
value. So a single stored index per reporter is sufficient to make
sure that only new values are reported.

This commit adds instrumentation function to gather measurement
and statistical values similar to counter groups.
Multiple values can be stored per item, which can be retrieved in
FIFO order. Getting values from the item does not modify its state to
allow for multiple independant backends (e.g. VTY and statd).
When a new value is set, the oldest value gets silently overwritten.
Lost values are skipped when getting values from the item.
