Tests from PCU_Tests_RAW_SNS inherit most infrastructure from NS tests
defined in PCU_Tests_RAW, which in turn don't share that much with other
tests present in that file. This way we simplify file PCU_Tests_RAW.ttcn,
which will potentially grow once more tests are added.

The event FN contains the current FN, but the message should contain the

Function f_rx_rlcmac_dl_block_exp_data() still misses proper
verification of data. Apparently the received message has 2 blocks,
first with expected 10 bytes, but next one contains 18 bytes with 4
actual bytes and other bits are padding.
Last DL ACK/NACK sent is not yet working correctly. osmo-pcu seems to be
unable to match it against sent DL block (I think due to non-matching
FN), and instead drops it and schedules after timeout an IMM ASS to try
to send DL block again.

There's also DL_ACK_NACK message for which a template will be introduced

Since there can be multiple PDCH channels configured on different
timeslots, different TRXes, and BTSes, the PTCCH/U handling code
in OsmoPCU needs to know the exact origin of a given RACH.ind.
Otherwise, it is not known which subscriber originated a given
PTCCH/U indication, and hence it is impossible to send PTCCH/D
Timing Advance notification properly.
Fortunately, we can extend the RACH.ind message without even
bumping the protocol version, because every single PDU has a
fixed size defined by the largest message - INFO.ind. In case
if the actual message payload is smaller, the rest is filled
with a constant padding byte (0x00).
Older versions of OsmoPCU will consider the new fields as padding,
while the messages from older OsmoBTS versions will always have
both fields set to 0x00. Since C0/TS0 cannot be configured to
PDCH, this can be easily detected on the other end.

As it turned out, OsmoPCU is not supposed to change the Coding
Scheme immediately when the recent link quality value leaves the
current window. Instead, in order to avoid rapid changes of the
Coding Scheme, it also takes the previous value into account.
Thus the current Coding Scheme is only changed if both current
and old values fit into a new window.
This change makes the test case pass.

As it turns out, it was a bad idea to use a counter in altstep
as_ta_ptcch(), because its value is getting lost. Let's instead
introduce a new type PTCCH_TAI_ToA_MAP, which is basically a
list of ToA values for each PTCCH/U sub-slot (TA Index), and
pass it to the altstep.

Both TDMA_EV_PTCCH_DL_BLOCK and TDMA_EV_PTCCH_UL_BURST events may
happen together during the same TDMA frame (fn % 104 == 90). We
shall not skip TDMA_EV_PTCCH_UL_BURST. Let's fix this.

Unlike the circuit-switched domain, Uplink transmissions on PDCH time-slots
are not continuous and there can be long time gaps between them. This happens
due to a bursty nature of packet data. The actual Timing Advance of a MS may
significantly change between such rare Uplink transmissions, so GPRS introduces
additional mechanisms to control Timing Advance, and thus reduce interference
between neighboring TDMA time-slots.
At the moment of Uplink TBF establishment, initial Timing Advance is measured
from ToA (Timing of Arrival) of an Access Burst. This is covered by another
test case - TC_ta_rach_imm_ass. In response to that Access Burst the network
sends Immediate Assignment on AGCH, which _may_ contain Timing Advance Index
among with the initial Timing Advance value. And here PTCCH comes to play.
PTCCH is a unidirectional channel on which the network can instruct a sub-set
of 16 MS (whether TBFs are active or not) to adjust their Timing Advance
continuously. To ensure continuous measurements of the signal propagation
delay, the MSs shall transmit Access Bursts on Uplink (PTCCH/U) on sub-slots
defined by an assigned Timing Advance Index (see 3GPP TS 45.002).
The purpose of this test case is to verify the assignment of Timing Advance
Index, and the process of Timing Advance notification on PTCCH/D. The MTC
first establishes several Uplink TBFs, but does not transmit any Uplink
blocks on them. During 4 TDMA multi-frame periods the MTC is sending RACH
indications to the PCU, checking the correctness of two received PTCCH/D
messages (period of PTCCH/D is two multi-frames).
At the moment of writing, PTCCH handling is not implemented in OsmoPCU
(neither PTCCH/D messages are correct, nor PTCCH/U bursts are handled).
Additionally, this change introduces a new message type, which is used
for sending commands to the RAW components - RAW_PCU_Command. Commands
can be used to (re)configure components at run-time.

According to 3GPP TS 44.018, section 10.5.2.16 "IA Rest Octets",
Packet Uplink Assignment can be either of the following types:
- single block allocation,
- dynamic allocation.
The current version of TC_cs_lqual_ul_tbf does not handle single
block allocation, so we need to make sure we got a TBF with
dynamic allocation.

The aim of this test case is to test the correctness of Timing Advance
at the time of TBF establishment. In particular, the test case sends
several Access Bursts (RACH.ind) with increasing 'qta' value, what
causes OsmoPCU to allocate a TBF (Temporary Block Flow) for each
RACH.ind and send DATA.req with Immediate Assignment on AGCH,
containing the expected Timing Advance value.

The problem of existing test cases is that they mix IUT (i.e. OsmoPCU)
with OsmoBTS (osmo-bts-virtual) and OsmocomBB (virt_phy). This approach
allows to avoid dealing with TDMA clock indications and RTS requests on
the PCU interface - this is done by OsmoBTS. On the other hand, our test
scenarios may be potentially affected by undiscovered bugs in OsmoBTS
and the virt_phy.
In order to solve that problem, this change introduces a set of new
components and the corresponding handler functions:
- RAW_PCUIF_CT / f_PCUIF_CT_handler() - PCU interface (UNIX domain socket)
handler. Creates a server listening for incoming connections on a given
'pcu_sock_path', handles connection establishment and message forwarding
between connected BTS components (see below) and OsmoPCU.
- RAW_PCU_BTS_CT / f_BTS_CT_handler() - represents a single BTS entity,
connected to OsmoPCU through the RAW_PCUIF_CT. Takes care about sending
System Information 13 to OsmoPCU, forwarding TDMA clock indications from
a dedicated ClckGen component (see below), and filtering the received
messages by the BTS number. Implements minimalistic scheduler for both
DATA.ind and RTS.req messages, so they are send in accordance with the
current TDMA frame number.
- RAW_PCU_ClckGen_CT / f_ClckGen_CT_handler() - TDMA frame clock counter
built on top of a timer. Sends clock indications to the BTS component.
All components communicate using TTCN-3 ports and explicitly defined sets
of messages (see RAW_PCU_MSG_PT). One noticeable kind of such messages is
events (see RAW_PCU_Event and RAW_PCU_EventType). That's how e.g. the PCUIF
component can notify the BTS component that OsmoPCU has just connected, or
the BTS component can notify the MTC that SI13 negotiation is completed.
Events may optionally have parameters (e.g. frame-number for TDMA_EV_*).
Furthermore, the proposed set of components allows to have more than one
BTS entity, so we can also test multi-BTS operation in the future.

Both 't_IMM_ASS_TBF_DL' and 't_RR_IMM_ASS_TBF_DL' templates were
introduced for a specific task - matching Packet Immediate
Assignment (Downlink TBF) by TLLI.
In the upcoming changes we will also need to match Uplink TBF
assignment, and more generic fields such as Timing Advance.
Let's add a generic template for Packet Immediate Assignment
and allow passing IaRestOctets as a parameter.

According to 3GPP TS 44.018, section 10.5.2.16, IA Rest Octets IE
starting with 'HH' bits may contain one of the following CSN.1
encoded components:
7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 Bit Numbers
H H 0 0 . . . . Packet Uplink Assignment
H H 0 1 . . . . Packet Downlink Assignment
H H 1 . . . . . Second Part Packet Assignment
We already have (partial) support for the first two, while the
last type has not been supported so far. Let's add it.
Also, this change introduces several templates for IA Rest Octets
IE and some of its components mentioned above. This would allow
us to abstract the API users from dealing with further changes,
e.g. adding a coding attribute 'CSN.1 L/H' and missing fields.

Make the decoding level (BSSGP, LLC, SNDCP, L3) configurable, so the
existing PCU tests, that expect messages only decoded to the BSSGP
level, can pass again. Move the SNDCP decoding in f_dec_bssgp above the

of f_send_bssgp_dec.

It originally seemed like a great idea to define a custom record
which aggregates the decoded BSSGP, LLC, L3 and/or SNDCP and passes
it to the individual ConnHdlr. However, particularly with testcase
interoperability for IuPS in mind, this seems bogus. Also, we
never really took advantage of this.
Let's now decode as far as we can decode any PDU, and then send the
decoded version of that PDU via the ports between the BSSGP_Emulation
and the ConnHdlr component.
