Femto - IuH
by Sipos Csaba 18 Oct '15

18 Oct '15

Dear Harald, Now that the implementation of the IuH interface is on its way, can you please recommend any femtos which you think can probably be used with this implementation? I think in a previous conversation in this subject someone mentioned that probably Alcatel based units has the highest chance because of certain configuration and/or implementation options. Anyway, if you can shed some light on this subject, that would be awsome. Thanks! Csaba

(I've read section for developers on openbsc wiki but still things are not clear to me as to how to start) 0.) The first libdbi corruption has been fixed by a patch[1]. You might just suffer from this one. 1.) In OpenBSC and when linking against libdbi 0.9 we get crashes on i386. I have a first analysis here[2] you could see which part fails. E.g. you could start compiling libdbi/libdi-drivers on your system with the address sanitizer (ASAN) and see if crashes are already triggered by the builtin testsuite, if not move on to OpenBSC 2.) Start looking into replacing libdbi calls with direct sqlite3 calls. To store "BLOB" libdi was wrapping it and we either copy that code or we migrate the data. E.g. have a look at how we migrate SMS on a schema change. 1st and 2nd are two alternatives, both of them have ups and downs and are acceptable ways to move forward. holger [1] https://github.com/sysmocom/meta-telephony/blob/master/recipes-misc/libdbi/… [2] http://sourceforge.net/p/libdbi/mailman/message/32607036/

Hi All, I’m facing an issue with osmo-nitb (HLR/sqlite part) - segmentation fault.

[PATCH 00/15] Add GTP hub, in early alpha stage
by Neels Hofmeyr 16 Oct '15

16 Oct '15

Here is the part of the branch openbsc:neels/gtphub that I believe may be merged to master at this point. (Holger: please go ahead with the merge, or tell me to do so...) The remaining bit is mostly a unit test netcat'ing to a gtphub instance. To do that properly, gtphub must be configurable. Hence I'm starting to add VTY config, which is not complete yet. Hence that part is still omitted here. Neels Hofmeyr (15): Add GTP hub stub, as simplistic UDP forwarder. gtphub: add to build gtphub: add skeletal gtphub.[hc] gtphub: populate API impl from test prog gtphub: add a todo comment gtphub: add TEI map API. gtphub: add gtphub_test.c (empty) gtphub: add TEI map test gtphub: add GTP header validation gtphub: undup code: memset on a struct. gtphub: tweak logging gtphub: index IEs, decode and log a few. gtphub: split gtp_relay() in r/w funcs gtphub: map sequence numbers SGSNs<->GGSNs gtphub: add signal handler to gtphub_main openbsc/.gitignore | 2 + openbsc/configure.ac | 1 + openbsc/include/openbsc/Makefile.am | 3 +- openbsc/include/openbsc/debug.h | 1 + openbsc/include/openbsc/gtphub.h | 151 ++++++++ openbsc/src/gprs/Makefile.am | 4 + openbsc/src/gprs/gtphub.c | 714 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ openbsc/src/gprs/gtphub_main.c | 256 +++++++++++++ openbsc/tests/Makefile.am | 2 +- openbsc/tests/gtphub/Makefile.am | 15 + openbsc/tests/gtphub/gtphub_test.c | 117 ++++++ openbsc/tests/gtphub/gtphub_test.ok | 1 + openbsc/tests/testsuite.at | 7 + 13 files changed, 1272 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) create mode 100644 openbsc/include/openbsc/gtphub.h create mode 100644 openbsc/src/gprs/gtphub.c create mode 100644 openbsc/src/gprs/gtphub_main.c create mode 100644 openbsc/tests/gtphub/Makefile.am create mode 100644 openbsc/tests/gtphub/gtphub_test.c create mode 100644 openbsc/tests/gtphub/gtphub_test.ok -- 2.1.4

Authorization using IMEI
by Ravi Shankar 15 Oct '15

15 Oct '15

Dear Sir It's mentioned on the site that the non-secure authorization is feasible with IMEI/IMSI. How can we authorize any MS using IMEI ?? I mean, the authorization field is in the Subscriber table of the database so how is it possible to set authorization with IMEI number. Regards.

Daniel, your from address had triple l's in them. Just saying in case some config needs fixing. I noticed because I was replying on a patch and got a bounce from sysmocom.de. ~Neels

Osmo-BTS-trx compilation Error

Hello list, I have compiled OpenBSC stack following the link http://openbsc.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/network_from_scratch. Everything has been compiled and configured smoothly except osmo-bts.For installing osmo-bts,i git cloned master branch from https://github.com/osmocom/osmo-bts. Following the link, i did configure --enable-trx and when make osmo-bts, i am getting the following error: l1_if.c: In function ‘bts_model_l1sap_down’: l1_if.c:552:23: error: ‘struct amr_multirate_conf’ has no member named ‘mode’ l1_if.c:553:23: error: ‘struct amr_multirate_conf’ has no member named ‘mode’ l1_if.c:554:23: error: ‘struct amr_multirate_conf’ has no member named ‘mode’ l1_if.c:555:23: error: ‘struct amr_multirate_conf’ has no member named ‘mode’ l1_if.c:580:23: error: ‘struct amr_multirate_conf’ has no member named ‘mode’ l1_if.c:581:23: error: ‘struct amr_multirate_conf’ has no member named ‘mode’ l1_if.c:582:23: error: ‘struct amr_multirate_conf’ has no member named ‘mode’ l1_if.c:583:23: error: ‘struct amr_multirate_conf’ has no member named ‘mode’ make: *** [l1_if.o] Error 1 I have tried it with the change branch: jolly/trx and also tried to make osmo-bts-trx in the src directory of osmo-bts but same error persisits. Any help in this regard will be a worth. Thanks Best Regards

[openbsc 0/5] sgsn/gbproxy RAND_bytes() usage and test cases
by Daniel Willmann 13 Oct '15

13 Oct '15

From: Daniel Willmann <dwillmann(a)sysmocom.de> Hello, the following patches should complete the usage of RAND_bytes() for GPRS. Jacob improved the SGSN test case so it would extract the PTMSI from the LLC frames and use those in the response. This means the gprs_sgsn patch will not break the test anymore. Furthermore, I changed the gbproxy implementation and test case to use RAND_bytes() instead of rand_r(). The test case previously used rand_r() to (re-)set the seed value for TLLI/PTMSI allocation in order to get predictable results. With RAND_bytes() this is not possible. Instead the tests overrides that function, replacing it with a predictable sequence of random numbers. Regards Daniel Daniel Willmann (3): gprs: Use RAND_bytes for p-tmsi gbproxy/test: Add and call cleanup_test function gprs/gb_proxy: Use RAND_bytes for gbproxy TLLI/TMSI allocation Jacob Erlbeck (2): sgsn/test: Add and call cleanup_test function sgsn/test: Really parse received DL LLC messages openbsc/include/openbsc/gb_proxy.h | 4 - openbsc/src/gprs/Makefile.am | 7 +- openbsc/src/gprs/gb_proxy.c | 16 +- openbsc/src/gprs/gprs_sgsn.c | 6 +- openbsc/tests/gbproxy/Makefile.am | 4 +- openbsc/tests/gbproxy/gbproxy_test.c | 110 +++++--- openbsc/tests/gbproxy/gbproxy_test.ok | 514 +++++++++++++++++----------------- openbsc/tests/sgsn/Makefile.am | 2 + openbsc/tests/sgsn/sgsn_test.c | 133 +++++++-- 9 files changed, 464 insertions(+), 332 deletions(-) -- 2.1.4
