Hi,

as part of adding bindings I wrote code that is doing shutdown/no shutdown every second. Actually I call mobile_init/mobile_exit with a script like this:

local start = false osmo.ms().start() function toggle_it() osmo.timeout(1, function() if start then start = false osmo.ms().start() else start = true osmo.ms().stop() end toggle_it() -- start the timer again end end toggle_it()

And while debugging I have nothing connected for the l1ctl. This means the l1ctl reset ack is not being received by the application. So when doing the above the following happens.

mobile_init() mobile_exit() mobile_init() |-> busy loop of adding a timer already in the tree

Turns out that mobile_exit checks the state and then takes an early exit without stopping the timers. So let's use the force option that is meant to not send a IMSI detach. Let's try it again.

mobile_init() mobile_exit() mobile_init() |-> busy loop of adding a timer already in the tree

Why is that? Even force mobile_exit() will exit early and mobile_init() doesn't take the device out of shutdown. From my point of view a mobile_exit(ms, force) should really take the device down and never fail. Any objections to modify the code for this?

regards
