Hi all,
I'm writing some tools for using with HF radio and SDR modems [1], and
I'm using multi-threaded architecture. Do you know the status and/or
which branch should I use of libosmocore in a multi-threaded application?
Regards,

Good evening,
My name is Tyler Wood, I was wondering how much yall would charge to create a dongle with OpenBSC on it and mail it to me. If I have contacted the wrong emails please let me know who I need to contact. Thank you for your time.
Very Respectfully,
Tyler Wood
Obrigado Romeu!

Hi all,
I'd also like to test SMS and CSFB in LTE. I have some experience with
the Osmocom GSM stack, but not much with the NextEPC LTE. Could you
point me which fields should I set in the configuration files?
Thanks,
Rafael Diniz

Hi Harald,
The srsLTE implementation is taken from the ETSI specs simulation program listings: http://cryptome.org/uea2-uia2/etsi_sage_06_09_06.pdf and http://cryptome.org/uea2-uia2/snow_3g_spec.pdfhttps://www.etsi.org/intellectual-property-rights#mytoc3 and https://www.etsi.org/images/files/IPR/etsi-ipr-policy.pdf outline the copyright licensing details for software incorporated in ETSI standards however I have not taken legal advice on compatibility of this license with AGPLv3.
>From a quick review, it looks like the CryptoMobile and NextEPC versions have taken the same approach.
It would be good as you say to have a "clean copyright" implementation - perhaps this is something we could help with.
Best regards,
Paul

Dear Osmocom & NextEPC Community,
Today I've added CS Fallback and released NextEPC v0.5.0
So, I'd just like to test this part with Osmocom project, but it seems to
be a difficult task. The reason is why I have little knowledge about 2G/3G.
Nevertheless, I will try to do it
BTW, I don't know if there is anyone who wants to integrate this big thing.
Even though I'm not sure if this will help, but let me introduce the
configuration of the NextEPC.
To use SGsAP, change the mme.conf as follows:
#
# <sgsap>
#
# o Single MSC/VLR
# sgsap:
# addr: 127.0.0.2
# plmn_id:
# mcc: 001
# mnc: 01
# tac: 4130
# lac: 43690
#
# o Multiple MSC/VLR
# sgsap:
# - addr: 127.0.0.2
# plmn_id:
# mcc: 001
# mnc: 01
# tac: 4131
# lac: 43692
# - addr
# - 127.0.0.3
# - fe80::2%lo0
# plmn_id:
# mcc: 001
# mnc: 01
# tac: 4132
# lac: 43692
# - name: msc.open5gs.org
# plmn_id:
# mcc: 001
# mnc: 01
# tac: 4133
# lac: 43693
#
FYI, I also attach the pcap that I run with nextepc simulator as below.
$ ./tests/testcsfb
mo-idle-test : SUCCESS
mt-idle-test : SUCCESS
mo-active-test : SUCCESS
mt-active-test : SUCCESS
All tests passed.
Feel free to raise any questions about this things.
Best Regards,
Sukchan
Hi!
I'm now at a point where I would like to add SNOW-3G (EIA1/EEA1) support for
NAS integrity protection and ciphering to my upcoming TTCN-3 testsuite for the MME.
However, it seems there is no real FOSS implementation of the SNOW-3G algoritm
around? All I could find was:
* https://github.com/mitshell/CryptoMobile with unclear source of the code,
without a copyright statement or license annotation
* https://github.com/rcatolino/libressl-snow3g/blob/master/crypto/snow3g/main…
without a copyright statement or license annotation
* https://github.com/Jadson27101/SNOW_3G in go,
without a copyright statement or license annotation
* https://github.com/KsirbJ/SNOW-3G
without a copyright statement or license annotation
* https://github.com/open5gs/nextepc/blob/master/src/mme/snow-3g.c
without a copyright statement or license annotation. Looks rather similar
to CryptoMobile. Possible just copy+pasted from ETSI reference implementation?
* https://github.com/srsLTE/srsLTE/blob/master/lib/src/common/snow_3g.cc
also contains no coypright statement or license, but might be construed
to be AGPLv3 like all of srsLTE. However, it states it is "adapted"
from ETSI/SAGE specifications. Does that mean it is an independent
implementation of the algorithm by just reading the specs, or does it
contain actual ETSI-copyrighted code?
It's also odd that the 3GPP specs (35.215 / 35.216, with usual copyright statement)
don't contain any actual information but all just point to the ETSI SAGE specification
which can be found (at the very least) here:
https://www.gsma.com/aboutus/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/uea2uia2d1v21.pdf
and interestingly doesn't contain any copyright statement whatsoever.
This discussion is not about any potentially 'essential patents' that may or may
not apply in some jurisdictions on the algorithm itself. I'm currently only interested
in a "clean copyright" implementation of any of the EIA/EEA implementations used
on the LTE NAS layer.
I'd appreciate any useful comments. Thanks!

"Privacy in residential applications is a desirable marketing option."
(ETSI EN 300 175-7 Ch. A6)
Dear all,
I'm very happy to have received the below attached news via the Eclipse
bugzilla.
This is great, as it permits us to have "real" SI rest octet as well as
RLC/MAC support in our TTCN3 test suites while still using declarative
RAW codec syntax.
Just to be clear there's no misunderstanding: This doesn't mean that
CSN.1 syntax can be parsed by TITAN. It just means that we can use RAW
codec annotations to describe something that matches the CSN.1 encoding.
Regards,
Harald

"Privacy in residential applications is a desirable marketing option."
(ETSI EN 300 175-7 Ch. A6)
Dear Osmocom community,
during recent years we have developed a quite extensive set of test suites
for virtually all interfaces on all protocol levels of our 2G stack, and
recently even extended at least with some 3G IuCS coverage.
Those test suites are considerably valuable for testing any kind of
implementation of 2G / 3G network elements, even beyond Osmocom. I'm a
bit worried that they might be used to test proprietary implementations,
which would bring no value to growing FOSS in mobile communications.
Whether we license the test suites under GPL or AGPL doesn't actually
change much here: Imagine "EvilCorp" developing a BSC, using our test
suites against it. They neither distribute the test suite, nor do they
provide "access over a network" to it, an hence they could keep any
modifications/extensions/derivatives private without having to
contribute those back.
I think this is problematic. We develop those test suites because we
care about having well-tested FOSS in cellular communications, whether
Osmocom or other FOSS projects. I certainly don't want to spend my
spare time, or invest sysmocom resources towards improving the test
coverage of any non-FOSS implementations. If such users are out there,
they should at the very least contribute to the development effort in
one way (code) or another (funding).
For 2G/3G, I think this discussion is quite theoretical, as there is
unlikely anyone else implementing those old technologies in proprietary
systems - Osmocom is probably typically the latest player in the market
to do so.
However, as I'm currently working on a first set of TTCN3 tests for
testing a LTE MME (initially attacing to S1 and SGs), I'm wondering if
we should continue to release related code under traditional copyleft
licenses.
One idea would be to have a license that permits the use of the test
suites to test only FOSS software. In theory, that would mean that all
projects we care about (such as currently srsLTE, nextepc, OAI EPC, ...)
could use the test suites to test their software. On the other hand,
if some vendor of proprietary MME/EPC software would want to [legally]
use the tests, they would need to obtain a different (paid) license to
the test suite. Of course they could simply ignore the license and we'd
have little chance to learn about it - but I would argue most proper
companies typically would obtain a license if they used some software
they knew they had to license.
This is a very double-edged sword. Drafting such a new license would
cause license proliferation, which is always bad. It also raises
quesetions of license compatibility with e.g. some of our common
existing 'library' code that would need to be investigated. Finally, it
also means that we'd no longer be writing "free software" nor "open
source", as the respective relevant definitions always require "non
discriminatory use for any purpose", which would no longer be the case
here.
This is currently an early stage brainstorming. Now is the right point
in time to talk about this, before we release any LTE/EPC related tests.
Let me know if you have any thoughts to share. While I'm cross-posting
this to openbsc@ and nextepc@ lists, pleaes follow-up-to
openbsc(a)lists.osmocom.org, as that's the main Osmocom mailing list and
we don't have any specifically only for the test suites.

Dear ML,
I'm wondering why we do not have gsmtap logging enabled for TTCN3
testsuites, and if there are any reasons against doing that.
Personally I find it very useful to have gsmtap logs in pcap files,
because then then there is no need to manually match the timestamps of
the log file and interesting parts of the pcap dump.
Especially in the TTCN3 testsuites, where we generate a separate pcap
file for each test, but have one big log file of the SUT (e.g. osmo-hlr)
for the entire testsuite run.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Oliver
