[PATCH net-next v2 0/6] gtp: misc improvements
by Andreas Schultz 13 Feb '17

13 Feb '17

Hi Pablo, Resent as v2, because I forgot the net-next target. Sorry for noise, I promise I won't forget it again. This series lays the groundwork for removing the socket references from the GTP netdevice by removing duplicate code and simplifying the logic on some code paths. It slighly changes the GTP genl API by making the socket parameters optional (though one of them is still required). The removal of the socket references will break the 1:1 releation between GTP netdevice and GTP socket that prevents us to support multiple VRFs with overlaping IP addresse spaces attached to the same GTP socket (needed for multi APN support). Regards Andreas Andreas Schultz (6): gtp: make GTP sockets in gtp_newlink optional gtp: merge gtp_get_net and gtp_genl_find_dev gtp: unify genl_find_pdp and prepare for per socket lookup gtp: consolidate pdp context destruction into helper gtp: add socket to pdp context gtp: consolidate gtp socket rx path drivers/net/gtp.c | 564 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++--------------------------- 1 file changed, 280 insertions(+), 284 deletions(-) -- 2.10.2

Great work Max! I just applied your patch to the libosmocoding, and the problem was solved. Valgrind now says, that everything is ok ;) BTW: did the osmo-bts-trx TCH/H problem solved? With best regards, Vadim Yanitskiy.

And... it was the first time when I got successful build on Jenkins! This is the temporary solution: sbit_t iB[912], cB[456], h; ubit_t conv[98], b[112], d[112], p[3]; int i, rv, steal = 0; /** * Fix valgrind warnings: * "Uninitialised value was created by a stack allocation" * "Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s)" */ memset(iB, 0x00, sizeof(iB)); Then I started to dig deeper into the code, and used memset() one more time: http://pastebin.com/jBJT3q6R This dirty printf based debug led me closer to the problem. We are getting different results (successes and fails) because the gsm0503_tch_burst_map() refers to uninitialized value at iB[353]. Now we need to find out, where is the bug. There are two assumptions: 1) The gsm0503_tch_hr_interleave() doesn't initialize the iB[353]; 2) The gsm0503_tch_burst_map() refers to the value which it shouldn't refer to. With best regards, Vadim Yanitskiy.

Re: osmo-bts-trx error with tch/h
by Vadim Yanitskiy 10 Feb '17

Hi Max and others, It seems, I faced similar problem while working on the libosmocoding. Despite the bursts_test in OsmoBTS always pass without any errors, when I merely moved some parts of GSM 05.03 code into a separate library, this test sometimes passes and fails on different machines... Thanks to tnt, who suggested me to use valgrind. Using this great tool and some tricks with memset(), I found, that the gsm0503_tch_burst_map() uses one uninitialized bit from the iB within the tch_hr_encode(). The same things happens in the tch_hr_decode(). I don't know, is it gsm0503_tch_hr_(de)interleave's bug or gsm0503_tch_burst_(un)map's one, we need to check GSM 05.03 specifications. With best regards, Vadim Yanitskiy.

Heads-Up on ongoing libosmo-sccp SIGTRAN work
by Harald Welte 09 Feb '17

09 Feb '17

Dear all, so far libosmo-sccp had some code with a partial SCCP implementation that date back to the earliest day of OsmoBSC in 2009, done by Holger. It also contained a SUA implementation which (mostly) I did last year in the wake of the Iuh and IuCS/IuPS support for the Osmocom 3G support. The latter code is already more 'modern' and uses the osmocom primitives (osmo_prim) between the SCCP User (the application) and the SCCP Provider (the library). Those primitives are modelled after the related specifications. What I'm now wokring on is to get those last SUA related patches finally merged in master, and to * add missing ASPTM and ASPSM protocol code + osmo_fsm state machines in a generic way that they can be shared by all SIGTRAN xUA variants * add M3UA while sharing more code between SUA and M3UA * introduce a MTP SAP based on osmo_prim that can be used on top of M3UA * wrap the existing sccp.c code to use the MTP SAP on the lower end and the SCCP User SAP on the upper edge In the above implementations, I am aiming for implementing SGW, ASP and IPSP roles. However, primary focus is on ASP. In the end, we will be able to stack M3UA and SCCP code using primitives, and interact with the SCCP using the exact same primitives and API as we interact with SUA currently. This will give us: * true/real IuCS/IuPS suppotr (we currently do SUA, which is not as per spec) in OsmoCSCN, OsmoSGSN and OsmoHNBGW without any real modificatin of their code * a way towards 3GPP compliant AoIP, by using the SCCP User SAP from OsmoBSC. This means that we'll also have to add that SCCP User SAP to the SCCPlite/IPA code that OsmoBSC is using for now. While all of the above sounds great, it somehow hurts me that we have already some (partial?) implementations of M3UA in cellmgr-ng (particularly the osmo-stp application). It hurts me that I'm not able to use the code that Holger wrote in recent years, but I still think it's worth-while to do an implementation centered around osmo_prim for layer-boundaries and osmo_fsm for state machines. So my apologies to Holger on this. It's not "Not Invented Here" syndrome, but I think there are reasons to take a different route than the existing code. I'm of course also looking forward to hearing other opinions on that. [... and while I'm working on this, I also think about introducing some generic inter-layer primitive logging code, so we can enable logging of the primitives at a given SAP without the specific SAP implementation having to implement anything, like we do in terms of osmo_fsm logging] Regards, Harald -- - Harald Welte <laforge(a)gnumonks.org> http://laforge.gnumonks.org/ ============================================================================ "Privacy in residential applications is a desirable marketing option."

accelerate3g5 ML?
by Neels Hofmeyr 09 Feb '17

09 Feb '17

Will there be a separate mailing list for the accelerate3g5 "winners"? Maybe we could just make it a general osmocom-3G@ mailing list. Alternatively, we could use this list for 3G as well. What's the plan? ~N
