I guess I'm again hitting the same ttcn3 wall that has caused me trouble
countless times before... I'm trying to run the already existing
TC_ho_into_this_bsc(), but before it starts I want to occupy all lchans.

This is the working TC_ho_into_this_bsc():


testcase TC_ho_into_this_bsc() runs on test_CT {
        var MSC_ConnHdlr vc_conn;
        var TestHdlrParams pars := f_gen_test_hdlr_pars();

        f_init(1, true);
        f_sleep(1.0);

        pars.handover.sccp_addr_msc := g_bssap.sccp_addr_own;
        pars.handover.sccp_addr_bsc := g_bssap.sccp_addr_peer;

        vc_conn := f_start_handler(refers(f_tc_ho_into_this_bsc), pars);
        vc_conn.done;
}


I just want to insert a bit of TC_chan_exhaustion() like so:

testcase TC_ho_in_fail_no_chan() runs on test_CT {
        var integer i;
        var MSC_ConnHdlr vc_conn;
        var TestHdlrParams pars := f_gen_test_hdlr_pars();

        f_init(1, true);
        f_sleep(1.0);

        /* occupy all lchans */
        for (i := 0; i < NUM_TCHF_PER_BTS + NUM_TCHH_PER_BTS + NUM_SDCCH_PER_BTS; i := i+1) {
                var RslChannelNr chan_nr := f_chreq_act_ack('23'O, i);
        }

        pars.handover.sccp_addr_msc := g_bssap.sccp_addr_own;
        pars.handover.sccp_addr_bsc := g_bssap.sccp_addr_peer;

        vc_conn := f_start_handler(refers(f_tc_ho_in_fail_no_chan), pars);
        vc_conn.done;
}

But no matter which way I turn it, ttcn3 does not agree.

* I either get:

21:36:03.008137 mtc BSC_Tests.ttcn:1553 Dynamic test case error: Using the value of an unbound component reference.
21:36:03.008163 mtc BSC_Tests.ttcn:1553 setverdict(error): none -> error
This is during
  f_connect_handler(): connect(vc_conn:BSSMAPEM, g_bssap.vc_BSSMAP:PROC);
with the log revealing [1] below

* Or I get:

21:31:45.678006 mtc BSC_Tests.ttcn:366 Dynamic test case error: Port IPA_RSL[0] has neither connections nor mappings. Message cannot be sent 
on it.
21:31:45.678094 mtc BSC_Tests.ttcn:366 setverdict(error): none -> error


This stuff really gets me steaming with ttcn... anyhow...

I'm fairly certain it has to do with the 'true' arg of f_init() starting the
RSL emulation, so I need to re-invent TC_chan_exhaustion() on the MSC_ConnHdlr?

Sort of like the hack I have in f_tc_ho_into_this_bsc()?
"
        /* Hack: the proper way would be to wait for the BSSMAP Handover Request ACK and extract the
         * actual assigned chan_nr from its L3 (RR Handover Command) message. But osmo-bsc starts acting
         * on the lchan even before we get a chance to evaluate the BSSMAP Handover Request ACK. So we
         * need to assume that osmo-bsc will activate TS 1 and already set up this lchan's RSL emulation
         * before we get started. */
        var RslChannelNr new_chan_nr := valueof(t_RslChanNr0(1, RSL_CHAN_NR_Bm_ACCH));
        f_rslem_register(0, new_chan_nr);
        g_chan_nr := new_chan_nr;
        f_sleep(1.0);
"

I wish it were easier...?
