I means: is the interaction with mtp3 layer implemented (is sending sccp
data by mtp3 implemented by the library?)?
Also, what about the reception of data from mtp3 layer. is that implemented
in the sccp lib.
I am asking these questions because I see the code of mtp3 in the lib but no
significant call is present in the sccp part of the lib.
Thank you for your help.

A TS can be GSM_PCHAN_TCH_F_PDCH; those are the only ones for which we
send a PDCH ACT message.
We send a PDCH ACT message
- during init (CHANNEL OML's state changed to enabled -> send PDCH ACT),
- and upon channel release ack when pchan == GSM_PCHAN_TCH_F_PDCH.
So the question is, when we receive a channel release ack, could that be
the PDCH release and we switch PDCH right back on by accident? No, because
we only receive a chan rel ack when the *TCH/F* is being released.
That is because the PDCH release is initiated "internally" from the PDCH
DEACT, and thus this condition in common/rsl.c rsl_tx_rf_rel_ack() catches
on, which existed before dyn PDCH:
if (lchan->rel_act_kind != LCHAN_REL_ACT_RSL) {
LOGP(DRSL, LOGL_NOTICE, "%s not sending REL ACK\n",
gsm_lchan_name(lchan));
return 0;
}
In rsl_rx_rf_chan_rel() the rel_act_kind is set to LCHAN_REL_ACT_RSL, but
not in the rsl_rx_dyn_pdch().
This is analogous to the ip.access way -- the ip.access nanobts replies to
a PDCH DEACT with a PDCH DEACT ACK and doesn't send a separate channel
release ack.
Maybe we could set rel_act_kind to some new LCHAN_REL_ACT_IPAC_DYN_PDCH
for clarity? (But we shouldn't actually send a release ack, to stay
compatible.)
Even though it works as-is, we should indeed add another flag check:
- We do check the flags that no ACT/DEACT is already pending;
- And we do send a PDCH DEACT only if ts->flags & TS_F_PDCH_ACTIVE;
- But we would send a PDCH ACT despite ts->flags & TS_F_PDCH_ACTIVE.
This should never happen, but it would make sense to ensure that.

Hi,
My name is Brackley Cassinga Form DRC, we run a community network called
pamoja net where we offer gsm services using osmocom open source software
and OC Base station.
Recently I have tried to install another base station as the same installed
but I could not find any resource guiding through all the steps to take to
run NIB on a base station.
I'm currently running Ubuntu and I will appreciate if you could guide me on
the installation of BSC,hlr,MSC , in order to run a basic gsm network.
Thank you. Regards

Hi All
I've used osmo-bsc in non standalone mode ie seperate components and all
works fine voice and sms work as should. However when introducing. sip
connector with asterisk the handsets will not make voice calls they just
constantly respond network busy. I'm using osmo bts-trx with osmo-trx-lms
on raspbian 10 below is Asterisk config. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Oliver, Neels, community,
I had some comments on the D-GSM work that didn't really fit directly to
the gerrit code review, and I thought I'd post it here.
== DNS zone / .msisdn suffix ===
One question I had was regarding the use of the .{msisdn,imsi} TLD. I would argue
it is probably besser to use something that fits within the existing DNS hierarchy
without contesting IANA's authority on gTLDs.
Historically, ETSI/3GPP made the mistake of using ".gprs" for resolving APNs
on the GRX. This was later changed to something with 3gppnetwork.com or the like,
hwere that domain would actually be registered by 3GPP with normal domain registrars,
but without any publicly accessible zone records. This way the name is reserved
in the public hierarchy and no risk of clashes.
I'm not sure how much of a concern this is to us, given that our use
case is much more niche than the GRX. However, the "cost" is probably
rather small to change this to something like
.{msisdn,imsi}.dgsm.osmocom.org ? Sure, the packets will get larger by
a few bytes, but given all the other overhead I think it's not really
going to have any impact?
What are your thoughts on that?
== MSISDN format ==
Another thought is whether or not there are any concerns regarding the
MSISDN format. Historically, this is one of the weaknesses of OsmoMSC,
inherited from the OpenBSC days where we just thought in terms of PBX
extension numbers. In reality, a MSISDN consist of a TON (type of
number), NPI (numbering plan indicator) and the related digits. IIRC,
in the TON one can also specify if it's supposed to be national or
international, i.e. if it's prefixed with the country code or not.
It would be great to make sure that the format used in the mDNS queries
is somewhat standardized, if not at least only by the documentation
requiring that all queries should be done in fully qualfiied form with
country code present. NPI is sort-of bogus as IMOH E.164 is the only
one applicable for MSISDN.
Any thoughts?
== The use of 'age' vs. absolute timestamp ==
In my original D-GSM idas I always thought we'd send an absolute UTC
timestamp when a given HLR/MSC has ever seen that subscriber. The idea
here being that any rural GSM network will have some kind of GNSS
recevier for clock stability in the BTS anyway, and one can hence assume
that timestamps are synchronized.
The advantage of a relative 'age' is obvious: You don't care about the
absolute clock value being correct anymore. The potential downside is
that propagation delay might matter. If you have a rather slow / loaded
geostationary sattelite link from one village, but a faster terrestrial
link from another village, the 'age' will be ambiguous while an absolute
timesetamp wouldn't have that.
Given that the delays we're talking about are probably all sub-second or
maybe possible about 1s, it's probably not a problem.
== GSUP keepalives / connection loss detection ==
In the presence of unreliable back-haul mesh between villages, the GSUP
connection can also not be seen as reliable. We would expect to see TCP
stalls due to packet loss, etc.
Have you considered this in your implementation and/or done any testing
based on simulated lossy networks to ensure we properly use either TCP
keepalives or IPA application-level PING/PONG to detect lost connections
and recover from such situations (by closing the old and
re-establishing)?
Unreliable networks can be easily simulated by Linux built-in 'tc netem'
for providing configurable packet loss / latency / jitter.
I also saw some comments / code related to "if a second connection using
the same IPA ID arrives, we're screwed" (paraphrasing here). I would
expect this not to be uncommon even if every MSC/HLR out there is
configred correctly exactly because e.g .the remote MSC/HLR has already
decided that the TCP/GSUP is dead and starts to reconnect by performing
a local-end release, while the "local" MSC/HLR still thinks the old
connection is alive. If the old connection "wins" (i.e. is preferred)
I see potential trouble here.
Situations like that probably warrant some carefully designed tests to
create exactly those situations.
Regards,
Harald

Hey,
yes, I ll drop one NanoBTS in Berlin, at Afra or Sysmocom before the first day of the conference.
Im not sure, if Ill be able to do so this week.
It actually belongs to Sysmocom / Harald.
Best regards,

Dear all,
36c3 is going to happen soon, and as usually we're planing to setup
our own GSM/UMTS network (LTE is to be discussed). While we do have
enough UMTS NodeB units, we're looking for heroes who could sacrifice
their GSM base stations (preferably sysmoBTS or nanoBTS) for the
duration of the congress. Note that we're not considering SDRs (unless
somebody with a strong aspiration wants to ensure proper clock
distribution, filtering, power amplification, etc).
Please let us know 1) how many (and what kind of) units we could
borrow from you, 2) can you bring them to Leipzig before the first
day, or can you drop them somewhere in Berlin (Sysmocom? AfRa?).
Thanks!
On behalf of the GSM team,
Vadim Yanitskiy.
Dear fellow Osmocom developers,
I would like to invite all developers and contributors to Osmocom [sub]projects
to register for OsmoDevCon 2020 (held on April 24th-27th, 2020 in Berlin).
For details known so far, please check
http://osmocom.org/projects/osmo-dev-con/wiki/OsmoDevCon2020
Please enter your name at
https://osmocom.org/projects/osmo-dev-con/wiki/OsmoDevCon2020#Requested
in case you would like to attend. Registering early allows proper
planning. Thanks!
Looking forward to meeting old and new Osmocom developers in April 2020.
Regards,
Harald
