liblayer23. Other applications using liblayer23 don't need to re-implement it.
Messages from layer 1 are not freed in layer2_read() anymore. They will be
freed by the upper layers. The layers may also decide to queue or to forward
the messages. In general: A message is always discarded by the message handler
and not after calling the message handler.
* port 'mobile' application to new l1ctl_tx_fbsb_req()
* make sure we have a proper downlinke header in front of l1ctl_fbsb_resp
* remove duplicate band_arfcn member of struct l1ctl_fbsb_resp
* reset the AFC to its default value when starting new FBSB task
* remove bogus l1s.sb.{synced.count} variables
* allocate msg and send l1ctl_fbsb_resp() only from process context, not FIQ
* properly report SNR and BSIC in fbsb_resp
* introduce arbitrary SNR thresholds for FB0->FB1 and FB1->SB switching
We really want to have those two as distinct operations - and we
want proper state machines in L1 to quickly return if they've
managed to acquire a FB or SB or not. Otherwise scanning will
take ages...
This code now introduces a new l1ctl_fbsb_req that is sent via
L1CTL to ask for a bitmask of FB0/FB1/SB operations. The actual
FB0/FB1 detection now no longer runs for 500 TDMA interrupts
but completes as soon as we either know there is no FCCH,
or that our frequency error is smaller than a caller-specified
threshold.
FB0/FB1 are already working, SB is not yet, sorry.
The arfcn variable is renamed to test_arfcn.
I think that arfcn and other frequency parameters should be stored at
the process which sets it and using it when calling l1ctl_tx_ccch_req().
similar to the concept of having 'apps' in the firmware build process,
I'm now building the common code as liblayer23 and we have three apps
that use this library:
layer23 - the old layer23 program
bcch_scan - a passive bcch scanner under development
echo_test - a test program sending large msgb's containing zero bytes
* introduce a new 'l1ctl_hdr' structure common to all messages
on this interface
* use struct l1ctl_hdr in both the firmware and layer23
* add a new L1CTL_PM_REQ request for performing layer23-initiated
power measurements (firmware does not implement them yet)
* remove linuxlist.h copy and use osmocore
* don't put 'struct gsm_time' into l1ctl packets
* include rx_level and snr for each burst in l1ctl
* properly build libosmocore.a for target
* move gsmtime functions into libosmocore
* move ctype.h to standard location
* use GSMTAP for uplink frames (generated by layer23; sent to L1)
* only use GSMTAP if the user specifies the '-i dstip' arguments
* properly encode the GSMTAP channel type
* requires GSMTAP protocol version 0x02 (see next commit for wireshark patch)
