This is required for the upcoming test cases running on hopping
channels. Dealing with module / hopping parameters in every
test case is definitely not a good idea, so let's add a function.

Also, take a chance to rearrange the list of arguments, so the ones

When a directory path for the "build artifacts" is not specified,
'/tmp' would be used by default. When running the same text
case more than once, gzip will be asking for confirmation whether
to overwrite the existing capture file. Let's do this by default.

Some types of System Information (mostly the Rest Octets) are not
fully implemented, so calling the generic dec_SystemInformation()
may result in a DTE. Let's add dec_SystemInformationSafeBT() with
"prototype(backtrack)", so it would return a non-zero integer if
decoding fails. Let's add a wrapper dec_SystemInformationSafe()
that would additionally check the RR Protocol Discriminator.

Since we have enabled the GSMTAP logging, test case capture files
now contain a lot of textual information that can be efficiently
compressed with gzip. That would make the "Build artifacts"
take much less space on Jenkins.

Add more EUTRAN ARFCNs, reaching the maximum allowed amount.
Add tests with 12, 23, 42 EARFCNs, just for the sake of testing some arbitrary
numbers.
Add tests with 32 and 33 EARFCNs because before osmo-bsc
Iabeed10053ee5899b4def3509aedd25abb2410a9, only 32 EARFCNs could be stored by
osmo-bsc.
Add a test with 48 EARFCNs to verify the maximum amount of EARFCNs and maximum
amount of SI2quater multiplexes works as expected.
Add a test with 49 EARFCNs to verify the VTY error response when adding too
many EARFCNs, and showing that osmo-bsc still sends 16 SI2quater with 48
EARFCNs.

The testcase tests if a CHANNEL REQUEST on the RACH leads to the correct
CHANNEL REQUIRED message on RSL level. When a MS is sending a CHANNEL
REQUEST to establish an emergency call, it uses a slightly different
layout for the request reference (RA). Lets add another similar testcase
(TC_rach_content_emerg) to cover the emergency call situation as well.

So far the naming is so that the EUTRAN_NeighborCell sounds like it reflects a
single E-ARFCN, while in fact it contains a list of E-ARFCNs. In 3GPP TS 48.018
it is more accurately named "Neighbor Cells", in plural.
There is another "list layer" that allows repeating these lists of E-ARFCNs,
which the spec names Repeated Neighbor Cells, i.e. have a list of (=repeat) the
lists of E-ARFCNs.
Repeated Neighbor Cells = {
// first cells list
Neighbor Cells = {
cell descriptions = {
{ e_arfcn = 1, meas_bw = 3 },
{ e_arfcn = 2, meas_bw = 3 },
{ e_arfcn = 3, meas_bw = 3 },
},
prio, thresh, ...
},
// second cells list
Neighbor Cells = {
cell descriptions = {
{ e_arfcn = 4, meas_bw = 3 },
{ e_arfcn = 5, meas_bw = 3 },
{ e_arfcn = 6, meas_bw = 3 },
},
prio, thresh, ...
},
...
}
Adjust the naming of the SI2quaterRestOctets members to more closely resemble
this structure, adopting the naming in 3GPP TS 48.018:
EUTRAN_NeighborCell -> EUTRAN_NeighborCells
because it is really a collection of multiple E-ARFCNs
EUTRAN_NeighborCells -> EUTRAN_RepeatedNeighborCells
because it is a list of E-ARFCN lists, and 3GPP TS 48.018 names it
"Repeated Neighbor Cells".
Also rename the EUTRAN_NotAllowedCells accordingly.

osmo-msc failed to record the Complete Layer 3 Information LAC and CI in the
MSC-A as well as the VLR record. Since osmo-msc
Iee1781985fb25b21ce27526c6a3768bf70d4dc9a and
I194271af2acb37b4f8cc2d106ab2fd2b0d443589, osmo-msc properly records these for
successful Complete Layer 3 procedures.
Incorporate verification of the LAC and CI in all tests calling f_perform_lu()
and f_expect_clear(). Implement by scraping the output of vty
'show subscriber imsi 1234 conn'
Some tests model a failure to attach, or expire the VLR record: for those, add
parameter verify_cell_id to g_pars, and pass it as false, to skip checking the
LAC and CI.
Disable CI checking for all Iu tests globally in f_verify_vty_lac_ci(), see
OS#4634.
For the latest build, which does not yet record LAC and CI properly, provide
mp_enable_cell_id_test, which skips all cell id verification if set to false.

This is a very minimalistic (incomplete) implementation of SI2quater
Rest Octets as per 3GPP TS 44.018, table 10.5.2.33b.1. Should be
enough to decode some of the E-UTRAN specific parameters though.
Some BITn fields might need to be replaced with more specific
enumerated or integer types. Beware [1], the bit ordering rules
are different for integer and bitstring (sub-)types if a field
ends up on boundary of the two octets!

At the time of writing Ief0d9b096feeee7d37b5f2429dd3e80de0161806 I wasn't aware
of the 'inout' keyword, which allows to pass the counter list by reference.
Rather modify the counter lists in-place. Instead of requiring
list := f_counter_name_vals_add(list, ...)
rather implement by directly modifying list:
f_counter_name_vals_add(list, ...)

Not all osmo-bts backends do support multiple transceivers, while

Since change [1] has been merged, we see multiple regressions in
ttcn3-bsc-test (all LCLS test cases) and ttcn3-bsc-test-sccplite
(sporadic failures). In all failed cases, the reason is similar:
RSL for unknown Dchan
BSC_Tests.ttcn:4501 BSC_Tests control part
BSC_Tests.ttcn:2176 TC_assignment_codec_fr testcase
The mentioned change enables TCP_NODELAY option for all IPA based
connections, including both OML and RSL. This option disables
Nagle's algorithm [2], so we get less delays on IPA based links.
It took me a lot of time to investigate, and finally, I figured
out what is actually causing those regressions. The TCP_NODELAY
itself is not a problem, of course. As it turned out, the
problem is here, in our TTCN-3 test case framework.
Each test case involves several components (actors) running in parallel.
One of them is RSL_Emulation_CT, which is responsible for handling and
routing of RSL messages between the connected components.
A test case may register dedicated channel handlers by calling
f_rslem_register(), so DCHAN/RLL/IPACCESS messages will be matched
by RslChannelNr/TrxNr and routed to the corresponding one.
If no handler is found for a given RSL message, the RSL_Emulation_CT
would abort the test case execution. And that's where the problem is.
Given that all components are running in parallel, it may happen
that a received RSL message would be processed by the RSL emulation
component faster than the test case would call f_rslem_register().
The test case would be aborted due to "RSL for unknown Dchan".
Speaking in context of the failing BSC test cases, a test case
calls f_rslem_register() on receipt of an Assignment Command as
it contains all the assignment parameters. After that we expect
to receive an RSL ip.access CRCX for that channel.
The problem is that both Assignment Command and ip.access CRCX
messages are sent by the BSC simultaneously, so the later may
be handled faster than the first one. Race condition!
Let's work this around by maintaining a waiting queue, where the
messages, for which no handler was found, will be kept until the
corresponding dedicated channel is registered.
This is an optional feature that needs to be enabled explicitly
by calling f_rslem_dchan_queue_enable(), and then explicitly
disabled by calling f_rslem_dchan_queue_disable().
If at the moment of calling f_rslem_dchan_queue_disable() the
waiting queue is not empty, e.g. because the IUT sent us more
messages than we expected, test execution will be terminated.
The actial fix for the LCLS test cases will be submitted next.

It appears some changes were made only to the files in
docker-playground.git, but not here. This means that running
tests locally produced unexpected results.
We must always ensure that the tests run both without and with

This was removed when libfilter was removed from osmo-bsc.
For some strange reason apparently the config files were not used/tested
while testing the removal of libfilter.
Also, irrespective of breaking TTCN3 test execution, we must introduce
a dummy 'access-list' VTY command to osmo-bsc to ensure we don't break
virtually every config file out there.

The TC_ho_neighbor_config_* tests sometimes take longer than 30 seconds,
because they run multiple handovers. Since they don't have access to the
Test_CT, they cannot restart the T_guard. The simplest solution is to choose a
longer T_guard timeout for those tests specifically, by adding an argument to
f_init(). (A longer timeout for those tests is following in another patch.)
Why f_init()? Assigning a different default value to T_guard seems to not be
possible, but a different timeout value can be passed to T_guard.start(), which
happens in f_init().
