OsmoBTS - OsmocomBB emulation project
by Dominiq T 11 Apr '15

11 Apr '15

Dear Osmcom, I am working on a project, where I am connecting OsmoBTS with OsmocomBB without hardware. I am trying to remove l1 on both sides and connect OsmoBTS with BB application via simple unix sockets. Based on the further recommendations, I am using osmobts-trx branch. Currently I am able to handle messages between BTS and TRX driver on clock and control ports, and on BB side I am in state that phone wants to connect into a cell (so its waiting for BCCH) . I am now trying to find a possible way how to handle messages on data port , between BTS – TRX ( TRX is removed, there is my application instead), and forward these messages to my customized BB l1 interface . The thing is that I need to send to BB phone (layer23) messages in structures from gsm_04_08.h (i.e. gsm48_system_information_type_3). I am not sure if I will be able to get needed from the messages coming on the data port 5702. I found, that PCU creates unix socket on “/tmp/pcu_bts” , but only in case sysmoBTS is in use (please correct me if I am wrong), so this will be not possible due compilation errors without HW. Here I found the gsm48_system_information_type_3 messages. So basically I need somehow to get this message structures on my custom l1 BB interface. Do you have any idea how to do this ? Any advice will be highly appreciated. Many thanks you for your attention :) Best regards, Dominik Tamaskovic.

libosmo-abis/RSL queue and OS interaction
by Holger Hans Peter Freyther 11 Apr '15

11 Apr '15

Dear Pablo, Ciaby, from what I see we have the following OpenBSC/OS integration. * OpenBSC wants to send some RSL data and calls abis_rsl_sendmsg ** abis_rsl_sendmsg entails the msgb into a queue and informs the lower layer driver (ipa in our case) ** ipa sets the when to ~= BSC_FD_WRITE * code returns * OpenBSC runs select for all fds/timers.. * libosmocore dispatches fd's ** libosmo-abis/ipaccess.c will try to write a single message ** libosmo-abis/ipaccess.c will set the BSC_FD_WRITE again if the queue is not empty * Linux/TCP will run nagle to combine these messages * OpenBSC runs select for all fds/timers... .... The integration does work but appears to be a bit painful for busy and high latency links. E.g. OpenBSC starts timers when abis_rsl_sendmsg is invoked which might just be a little bit later. I wonder if there is a better way? For reading we could read until -EWOULDBLOCK but then this might not be too fair for the other parts of the software. For writing we might end up in the situation where a write only partially succeeds and we need to remember how much of the msgb to write next... So we would need to do ioctl's to check how much space is left in the send buffer Do you have ideas? comments? is it a non issue? is it something we can do better? Is there a TCP mode where a "write" either fully succeeds or fails with -ENOSPC or such? holger

[PATCH 1/4] mncc: Select the codec similar to the modify handling
by Holger Freyther 10 Apr '15

10 Apr '15

From: Holger Hans Peter Freyther <holger(a)moiji-mobile.com> In case the default TCH/F codec is "EFR" and we do an early assignment from SDCCH to a TCH we would assign the TCH/H codec. This is because the lchan_type will be neither a TCH/H nor a TCH/F. At the same time the _gsm48_lchan_modify code to check for half vs. full-rate is the other way around. Align both. It is full-rate if it is not a TCH_H. This will have some other complications down the way (early assignment on cells with only TCH/H). So the mode should not depend on the _current_ channel but the kind of channel we want. --- openbsc/src/libmsc/mncc_builtin.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/openbsc/src/libmsc/mncc_builtin.c b/openbsc/src/libmsc/mncc_builtin.c index a5a463b..5c3461b 100644 --- a/openbsc/src/libmsc/mncc_builtin.c +++ b/openbsc/src/libmsc/mncc_builtin.c @@ -69,7 +69,7 @@ static uint8_t determine_lchan_mode(struct gsm_mncc *setup) { /* FIXME: check codec capabilities of the phone */ - if (setup->lchan_type == GSM_LCHAN_TCH_F) + if (setup->lchan_type != GSM_LCHAN_TCH_H) return mncc_int.def_codec[0]; else return mncc_int.def_codec[1]; -- 2.1.4

[PATCH 1/4] nat: Fix timeslot range in 'show bsc mgcp' VTY command
by Jacob Erlbeck 09 Apr '15

09 Apr '15

Currently the inner loop in show_bsc_mgcp iterates of the timeslot interval [0, 31]. Timeslot 0 is not valid, which causes mgcp_timeslot_to_endpoint to generate a corresponding warning and to return an invalid endp value. That value causes an out-of-bound read access, possibly hitting unallocated memory. This patch fixes the loop range by starting with timeslot 1. Note that this does not prevent mgcp_timeslot_to_endpoint from returning an invalid endpoint index when called with arguments not within its domain.

[PATCH 1/2] msgb: Check the return value of msgb_alloc (Coverity)
by Jacob Erlbeck 09 Apr '15

09 Apr '15

In some places, the return value of msgb_alloc/msgb_alloc_headroom is not checked before it is dereferenced. This commit adds NULL checks to return with -ENOMEM from the calling functions if the alloc function has failed.

[PATCH 1/3] bssgp: Always expect dup != NULL in bssgp_tx_dl_ud (Coverity)
by Jacob Erlbeck 07 Apr '15

07 Apr '15

Currently the implementation of bssgp_tx_dl_ud conditionally adds some optional IE if dup != NULL. Later on is dereferences dup to access qos_profile and fc, but this without checking dup in advance. This may lead to an segmentation violation fault. This commit changes the value range of the function to only accept dup != NULL. An assertion will fail otherwise. All other explicit checks for non-NULL are removed.

recurring issue with OpenBSC
by Ciaby 06 Apr '15

06 Apr '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hi! First a small update: we finally decided to _not_ use token mode, as it confuses a lot of phones, after receiving the token message the SIM goes into an error state and the only way to recover is to reboot the phone. Now we just read the IMSI straight from the SIM (using the card python library, just like osmo-sim-auth does) and register them. Now, the issue we see is that 1-2 users every day reach a point where they can make phone calls and send messages, but they can't receive neither of them. Sometimes the problem can be fixed by running: > subscriber extension <EXT> clear-requests but this only work when there are pending requests. In other cases, the phone has to be rebooted. Did anyone encounter the same issue?
