Abis RSL and channel allocation issue
by Sipos Csaba 30 Oct '13

30 Oct '13

I am more and more sure that the my failing handover situation has a deeper root cause and it is not actually the handover which is failing, but there should be a channel allocation problem. And there it is. The following log is made during the send of an SMS to the mobile from the BSC CLI: Tue Oct 29 15:06:15 2013 <001e> sms_queue.c:220 Attempting to send 20 SMS Tue Oct 29 15:06:15 2013 <0000> chan_alloc.c:457 (bts=0,trx=0,ts=0,ss=1) starting release sequence Tue Oct 29 15:06:15 2013 <0000> abis_rsl.c:892 (bts=0,trx=0,ts=0,ss=1) RSL RLL RELEASE REQ (link_id=0x03, reason=1) Tue Oct 29 15:06:15 2013 <0003> gsm_04_08_utils.c:231 Sending Channel Release: Chan: Number: 1 Type: 1 Tue Oct 29 15:06:15 2013 <0004> abis_rsl.c:634 (bts=0,trx=0,ts=0,ss=1) DEACTivate SACCH CMD Tue Oct 29 15:06:15 2013 <0004> abis_rsl.c:1070 (bts=0,trx=0,ts=0,ss=1): MEAS RES for inactive channel Tue Oct 29 15:06:15 2013 <001a> input/dahdi.c:320 send returns -1 instead of 160 Tue Oct 29 15:06:15 2013 <001a> input/dahdi.c:320 send returns -1 instead of 160 Tue Oct 29 15:06:15 2013 <0000> abis_rsl.c:1657 (bts=0,trx=0,ts=0,ss=1) SAPI=0 RELEASE INDICATION Tue Oct 29 15:06:15 2013 <0004> abis_rsl.c:1628 (bts=0,trx=0,ts=0,ss=1) waiting for SAPI=3 to be released.

As you can see, from the BSC point of view the handover was successful, but it was not able to release the old channel, we never got any RELEASE INDICATION. This is why we get the Radio Link Failure eventually, because the phone is not there anymore, but the channel yet not closed. Because the release of the old channel is not successful, OpenBSC never tries to remap the TRAU to the new channel, therefore both phones got disconnected (properly). This is as far as I can get with this problem. Maybe now that I narrowed down the root cause, someone can help me with it. I still think this problem is not Nokia specific, maybe other BTSes are affected (BS11 or other E1 based units). Csaba

For my previous post in the subject: show lchan clearly indicates that the logical connections were never got disconnected. When the above output as made, there were no activity on the BTS for more than 20 minutes, yet these channels are not released: OpenBSC# show lchan BTS 0, TRX 0, Timeslot 0, Lchan 0: Type SDCCH Connection: 0, State: RELEASE REQUESTED BS Power: 22 dBm, MS Power: 26 dBm No Subscriber Measurement Report: Flags: DLinval RXL-FULL-ul: -110 dBm, RXL-SUB-ul: -110 dBm RXQ-FULL-ul: 0, RXQ-SUB-ul: 0 BTS 0, TRX 0, Timeslot 0, Lchan 1: Type SDCCH Connection: 0, State: RELEASE REQUESTED BS Power: 22 dBm, MS Power: 26 dBm No Subscriber Measurement Report: Flags: DLinval RXL-FULL-ul: -110 dBm, RXL-SUB-ul: -110 dBm RXQ-FULL-ul: 0, RXQ-SUB-ul: 0 BTS 0, TRX 0, Timeslot 0, Lchan 2: Type SDCCH Connection: 0, State: RELEASE REQUESTED BS Power: 22 dBm, MS Power: 26 dBm No Subscriber Measurement Report: Flags: DLinval RXL-FULL-ul: -110 dBm, RXL-SUB-ul: -110 dBm RXQ-FULL-ul: 0, RXQ-SUB-ul: 0 BTS 0, TRX 0, Timeslot 0, Lchan 3: Type SDCCH Connection: 0, State: RELEASE REQUESTED BS Power: 22 dBm, MS Power: 26 dBm No Subscriber Measurement Report: Flags: L1 MS Power: 26 dBm, Timing Advance: 0 RXL-FULL-dl: -47 dBm, RXL-SUB-dl: -47 dBm RXQ-FULL-dl: 0, RXQ-SUB-dl: 0 RXL-FULL-ul: -47 dBm, RXL-SUB-ul: -47 dBm RXQ-FULL-ul: 0, RXQ-SUB-ul: 0 BTS 0, TRX 0, Timeslot 1, Lchan 0: Type SDCCH Connection: 0, State: RELEASE REQUESTED BS Power: 22 dBm, MS Power: 26 dBm No Subscriber Measurement Report: Flags: DLinval RXL-FULL-ul: -110 dBm, RXL-SUB-ul: -110 dBm RXQ-FULL-ul: 0, RXQ-SUB-ul: 0 OpenBSC# With this method I can fill the whole signalling capacity of the BTS without any actual call or SMS being sent.

Re: Nokia Insite OpenBSC Segfault
by Sipos Csaba 29 Oct '13

29 Oct '13

Hi Caleb, The segfault is introduced with this patch: http://cgit.osmocom.org/libosmocore/commit/?id=f5a079f739c57d8be7c59149fd45… Is is not really a bugfix, but if you just comment out the following part from lapd_core.c added by the above patch and recompile openbsc, it will help: dl->tx_hist = NULL; The problem is probably related to the RESET function, because Nokia units are being reset during the initialization phase, and bootstrapped after that. The reason for this is if this reset is not concluded, then the BTS will not apply certain configuration parameters (e.g. change in ARFCN, transmit power, timeslot configuration). I strongly suggest you anyway, to start with TCF/F FR configuration, and if you see major alarm "BCF operation degraded: difference between PCM and BTS clock", it means that your E1 card is not able to provide accurate enough timing for the BTS. According to Nokia, you need +-5Hz accuracy on the E1 to meet the timing requirements, but even then at least 20-25 minutes of operation is needed for the BTS clock to be synced and the alarm goes away. Usually DAHDI or other E1 cards clock are not precise enough but don't worry: even with the alarm you can make pretty good quality phone calls, but remember: if you experience severe call quality degradation, or the phones cannot camp, or they loosing the network all the time, it is going to be a timing related problem. Anyway, do you have the Nokia InSite manager software? If not just write me a mail and I can help with that. You definitely going to need that and an LMP cable to do the initial setup, before you can get started with OpenBSC. BR, Csaba

[PATCH 1/2] vty: Use vty_install_default() instead of bsc_install_default()
by Jacob Erlbeck 29 Oct '13

29 Oct '13

Remove ournode_exit_cmd, ournode_end_cmd, and bsc_install_default() since this functionality is provided by the current libosmocore.

Nokia Insite OpenBSC Segfault

Re: OpenBSC + LCR + Asterisk = half sided calls in one
by Sipos Csaba 28 Oct '13

28 Oct '13

Hey Peter, > I'd suggest to make LCR use SIP for communcation with Asterisk. See > http://stuge.se/lcr.txt for a minimal example of LCR configuration. Do you have some more example configuration files for the Asterisk end of the SIP trunk? > Since you're using bridging you might also want to try rtp-bridge > between GSM and SIP, which could allow GSM phones and SIP phones to > negotiate codec directly, avoiding any transcoding. (But maybe it > only works with Abis over IP and not over ISDN? I'm not sure.) I am almost sure that RTP bridge can only be used with IP based BTSes which I don't have. My units are connecting via E1 dahdi. > You can of course continue to debug the LCR-Asterisk module but I > would suggest moving to SIP since I think working with SIP on both > legs makes debugging a bit easier. My problem is that I made test calls an analyzed the logs at both LCR and Asterisk end, and there is no difference between a good and a half sided call. First, I forced the GSM phones to use TCH/F FR only, then I forced LCR and Asterisk SIP clients to use Alaw only (SIP clients are not supporting any GSM codec). Transcoding obviously happens between TCH/F FR and Alaw, but how on earth is possible that the direction of the call can affect that this transcoding is going to be a success or not? If its a transcoding failure it shouldn't work in any direction. If its a call routing problem, then the call shouldn't make its way to the called party. But none of this is what happens. So I really don't know where to look, or how to debug this problem. BR, Csaba

osmo-nitb openbsc sms via commandline problem.
by hulds＠gmx.net 25 Oct '13

25 Oct '13

Hi, When sending sms via openbsc commandline the sms gets extra data added to its tail. The coversion from text to PDU results in the converted data + garbage, this data is posted to the 'sms' database 'user-data' field, and then sent. in the 'sms' database you can verify that a short sms text results in long user-data phone to phone sms works without problems.

OsmocomBB without hardware phone
by clovnrian＠gmail.com 24 Oct '13

24 Oct '13

Hi, I am trying to modify osmocomBB to work without the phone as layer 1. My goal is that application will using socket to communicate with BTS (modified BTS which can send and receive message throught sockets). I analyzed the osmocomBB code and I found that I'll have to modify osmocon.c (host/osmocon/osmocon.c) file. This file is interface between serial communication and layer2. If I am right, I have to do this changes: 1. Delete functions handle the serial interface 2. Add new tool server to dnload structure 3. Creating new tool server for L1 interface (UNIX socket or IP socket with GSMTAP) 4. Add callback function for reading from layer2 socket and forward this messages to L1 socket interface. Simplified I have to listen and forward packets from BTS to layer2 socket and from L2 to L1. Do I think in right direction or I am wrong and it will need more modifications? Best regards, Miroslav Babjak
