[PATCH 0/5] pablo/ctrl-updates related patches
by Daniel Willmann 16 Sep '11

16 Sep '11

Hello Pablo, attached are patches against the current pablo/ctrl-updates branch that fix the compile issues. It needs the closed callback in libosmo-abis to work. As long as the bsc_msc_connection is still using write_queues I have added the old ctrl_cmd_send function again (under a different name) So we can still send commands over that connection. I've tested the communication/timeout/closed_cb handling and nothing problematic showed up. Having two send commands is unfortunate, but I guess it's okay for the time being. I'm guessing that the other connections will be switching to libosmo-abis as well in the foreseeable future and then this issue will resolve itself. Feel free to squash the patches as you see fit in order to get them merged. Regards, Daniel Willmann (5): libctrl: Catch up with API change for ipa_server_conn_create nat: Use libosmo-abis infrastructure in the pending entries libctrl: Add a new function to send commands through an osmo_wqueue osmo-bsc: Use ctrl_cmd_send_wqueue to send cmds over the nat-bsc link nat: Use ctrl_cmd_send_wqueue to send cmds over the nat-bsc link openbsc/include/openbsc/bsc_nat.h | 2 +- openbsc/include/openbsc/control_cmd.h | 1 + openbsc/src/libctrl/control_if.c | 24 +++++++++++++++++++++++- openbsc/src/osmo-bsc/osmo_bsc_msc.c | 4 ++-- openbsc/src/osmo-bsc_nat/bsc_nat.c | 19 ++++++++++--------- 5 files changed, 37 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) -- 1.7.6.1

Dear All, I have a question regarding the SLS in M3UA, is the sls number mapped to the sctp stream id? for example, lets consider that i have sctp association with two stream id, 1 and 2, can i send m3ua message with sls 0 mapped to sctp stread id 1, and another m3ua message with sls1 mapped to sctp stream id 2. is this correct? if not can you please help digest this issue :). Appreciate your help, Ammar

Hi Just ran across your blog and was interested in emulating some real traffic to Cisco GGSN code running on dynamips. Could you please provide me some references where I can start with so that i can get openBSC or openSGSN up and running? Also wondering if you have or aware of a code that emulated MS instead of having real BTS up , Thank you v.much in advance. Anish

some issues configuring openbsc
by Stephen Siadak 13 Sep '11

13 Sep '11

While I think I am pretty close to getting my ip.access nanoBTS to communicate with my laptop running osmo-nitb I seem to be running into a problem. I am running openbsc-0.9.13 and using libosmocore-0.1.30 When I start osmo-nitb I see this error: ./osmo-nitb -T -c ./openbsc.cfg DB: Database initialized. DB: Database prepared. Sat Sep 10 17:39:42 2011 <0007> sms_queue.c:223 Attempting to send 20 SMS Sat Sep 10 17:39:45 2011 <000d> input/ipaccess.c:650 accept()ed new OML link from 2.2.2.1 Sat Sep 10 17:39:45 2011 <0004> e1_input.c:238 rsl_sendmsg: msg->trx->rsl_link == NULL: 81 8a c4 0b Sat Sep 10 17:39:45 2011 <0004> e1_input.c:238 rsl_sendmsg: msg->trx->rsl_link == NULL: 81 81 c1 10 02 00 00 00 c0 a8 ea 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 Sat Sep 10 17:39:45 2011 <0004> e1_input.c:238 rsl_sendmsg: msg->trx->rsl_link == NULL: 81 81 c1 10 02 00 d4 07 c0 a8 ea 01 38 a4 45 00 04 59 40 00 Sat Sep 10 17:39:45 2011 <0005> bsc_init.c:50 Failed to set BTS attributes. That is fatal. Was the bts type and frequency properly specified? I am using one of the stock nitb configuration files with no modifications. openbsc.git/openbsc/doc/examples/osmo-nitb/nanobts/openbsc.cfg My setup is a little odd. I did not do the original configuration for the nanoBTS. I was hoping to just get stuff working with the current configuration before I changed anything. The nanoBTS comes up with an IP of 2.2.2.1 and expects a gateway of 2.2.2.2. So I simply configured the ip eth0 on my laptop to 2.2.2.2. Then annoyingly the nanoBTS starts looking for 3.3.3.3. Now I start getting a little hacky to try and move stuff along: ip addr add 3.3.3.3/24 dev eth0 ip route add 3.3.3.3/32 via 2.2.2.2 I am able to use ipaccess-find: ./ipaccess-find eth0 # finally shows # MAC Address='00:02:95:00:51:83' IP Address='2.2.2.1' Unit ID='1801/0/0' # Location 1='' Location 2='BTS_NBT131G' Equipment Version='165b029_58' # Software Version='168a302_v142b13d0' Unit Name='nbts-00-02-95-00-51-83' # Serial Number='00106317' I am also able to use ipaccess-config: ./ipaccess-config -u 1801/0/0 -o 2.2.2.2 -r 2.2.2.1 # Trying to connect to ip.access BTS ... # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=SITE-MANAGER(00) INST=(ff,ff,ff) STATE CHG: # OP_STATE=Disabled AVAIL=Not installed(07) # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=BTS(01) INST=(00,ff,ff) STATE CHG: OP_STATE=Disabled # AVAIL=Not installed(07) ADM=Locked # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=BASEBAND-TRANSCEIVER(04) INST=(00,00,ff) STATE CHG: # OP_STATE=Disabled AVAIL=Not installed(07) ADM=Locked # OML link established using TRX 0 # setting Unit ID to '1801/0/0' # setting primary OML link IP to '2.2.2.2' # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=CHANNEL(03) INST=(00,00,00) STATE CHG: # OP_STATE=Disabled AVAIL=Not installed(07) ADM=Locked # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=CHANNEL(03) INST=(00,00,01) STATE CHG: # OP_STATE=Disabled AVAIL=Not installed(07) ADM=Locked # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=CHANNEL(03) INST=(00,00,02) STATE CHG: # OP_STATE=Disabled AVAIL=Not installed(07) ADM=Locked # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=CHANNEL(03) INST=(00,00,03) STATE CHG: # OP_STATE=Disabled AVAIL=Not installed(07) ADM=Locked # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=CHANNEL(03) INST=(00,00,04) STATE CHG: # OP_STATE=Disabled AVAIL=Not installed(07) ADM=Locked # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=CHANNEL(03) INST=(00,00,05) STATE CHG: # OP_STATE=Disabled AVAIL=Not installed(07) ADM=Locked # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=CHANNEL(03) INST=(00,00,06) STATE CHG: # OP_STATE=Disabled AVAIL=Not installed(07) ADM=Locked # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=CHANNEL(03) INST=(00,00,07) STATE CHG: # OP_STATE=Disabled AVAIL=Not installed(07) ADM=Locked # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=RADIO-CARRIER(02) INST=(00,00,ff) STATE CHG: # OP_STATE=Disabled AVAIL=Not installed(07) ADM=Locked # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=GPRS-NSE(f0) INST=(00,ff,ff) STATE CHG: # OP_STATE=Disabled AVAIL=Not installed(07) ADM=Locked # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=GPRS-CELL(f1) INST=(00,00,ff) STATE CHG: # OP_STATE=Disabled AVAIL=Not installed(07) ADM=Locked # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=GPRS-NSVC(f2) INST=(00,00,ff) STATE CHG: # OP_STATE=Disabled AVAIL=Not installed(07) ADM=Locked # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=GPRS-NSVC(f2) INST=(00,01,ff) STATE CHG: # OP_STATE=Disabled AVAIL=Not installed(07) ADM=Locked # <0005> abis_nm.c:537 OC=BASEBAND-TRANSCEIVER(04) INST=(00,00,ff) # IPACCESS(0xf0): SET NVATTR ACK # Set the NV Attributes. # The BTS has acked the restart.

[PATCH 0/3] openbsc: ctrl updates
by pablo＠gnumonks.org 11 Sep '11

11 Sep '11

From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo(a)gnumonks.org> Hi, These patchset contains the port of libctrl to use the IPA infrastructure available in libosmo-abis. I've also made one small cleanup to bail out in case that we cannot bind to the telnet port. Another patch follows up to avoid disabling nagle (to avoid problems with TCP segmentation, we still have to support this appropriately), I noticed this while doing the port work. Pablo Neira Ayuso (3): ctrl: use generic IPA socket infrastructure available in libosmo-abis src: check for error returned by controlif_setup() ctrl: do not disable nagle algorithm until we fully support segmentation openbsc/include/openbsc/control_cmd.h | 17 +--- openbsc/include/openbsc/control_if.h | 2 +- openbsc/src/libctrl/control_if.c | 153 +++++++-------------------------- openbsc/src/osmo-bsc/osmo_bsc_main.c | 6 +- openbsc/src/osmo-bsc_nat/bsc_nat.c | 6 +- openbsc/src/osmo-nitb/bsc_hack.c | 5 +- 6 files changed, 50 insertions(+), 139 deletions(-) -- 1.7.2.5

[PATCH 0/7] libosmo-abis: updates for generic IPA infrastructure
by pablo＠gnumonks.org 09 Sep '11

09 Sep '11

From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo(a)gnumonks.org> Hi! This patchset contains several updates for the generic IPA infrastructure which provides an abstraction upon the generic socket infrastructure for IPA traffic. After this patchset, it will follow up one patch to use it in openBSC. You can find these changes in the pablo/ipa-updates branch of libosmo-abis. Please, merge them. Pablo Neira Ayuso (7): ipa: remove bogus driver_name parameter from ipa_client_create ipa: rename all reference to ipa_*_peer to ipa_*_conn tests: remove reference to internal headers in ipa_proxy_test ipa: use default write callback in ipa_client_conn_create if not specified ipa: fix segfault in ipa_client_conn_create if no E1 timeslot is specified ipa: better log error messages for ipa_msg_recv() ipa: use DEBUG level instead of NOTICE for debugging log messages include/osmocom/abis/ipa.h | 34 +++++----- src/input/hsl.c | 22 +++--- src/input/ipa.c | 153 ++++++++++++++++++++++---------------------- src/input/ipaccess.c | 26 ++++---- src/ipa_proxy.c | 22 +++--- tests/ipa_proxy_test.c | 4 +- 6 files changed, 128 insertions(+), 133 deletions(-) -- 1.7.2.5

[osmocom-announce] patched wireshark now on git.osmocom.org
by Harald Welte 07 Sep '11

07 Sep '11

Hi all, we have accumulated a number of wireshark patches, and by far not all of them have been merged into mainline wireshark so far (volunteers, anyone?) Some people have complained that it is hard to build them, as you first have to find a wireshark version to which they apply, etc. We have now created a wireshark.git repository at git.osmocom.org in which you will be able to find the latest mainline wireshark version ('trunk' branch) as well as our patches in 'master': http://cgit.osmocom.org/cgit/wireshark/ the read-onIy clone url is 'git://git.osmocom.org/wireshark' So the recommended option for everyone needing patched wireshark for one or the other reason (e.g. simtrace) now is to clone that wireshark.git repository and build from there. Like before, we will rebase our patches in irregular intervals, so you may have to do a 'pull -f' instead of 'pull' at that time.

This patch adds a version check for ortp, needed because of an upstream API change. libosmo-abis fails to build with ortp <0.15.0.

OpenBSC behind NAT
by Seungju Kim 06 Sep '11

06 Sep '11

Hello, i am trying to set up an openbsc network behind NAT. So far i can run the bts with oml/rsl. But the bts fails to connect to the sgsn. I think it is because of the ports. What ports shall i open in order to get it work? And the encalsulation settings could not be matched because the sgsn is behind the nat. Is there a workaround for this?
