libosmocore changes / release process
by Neels Hofmeyr 18 Dec '16

18 Dec '16

When I now change pretty much anything in libosmocore that I want to use in e.g. openbsc.git, I would like to bump the minor revision and reference that in other projects' configure.ac. The effort is ok if it entails only tagging a revision and using that elsewhere. However, this has come down to a lengthy process: " cleanup TODO-RELEASE file if not empty, bumping API versions accordingly (see comments in TODO-RELEASE) update debian/changelog using "gbp dch" command " https://osmocom.org/projects/cellular-infrastructure/wiki/Make_a_new_releas… So, pretty much every commit in libosmocore will be followed by another commit that is adjusting the changelog...? :/ Should we adjust the changelog along with pretty much any change used outside of libosmocore? :/ (probably not, because reverting anything is made cumbersome) Should we rather, like, make a libosmocore release only once a week and somehow track wich other projects need a bump to the required libosmocore version? I think most projects out there make a release tag only every now and then. We could limit to noting the required libosmocore change-id in other projects' commit logs until the next (minor) release is made...? Can we add a fourth level of version that doesn't require a changelog/debian release? So for every small change I make I would tag 0.9.6.1, 0.9.6.2, etc., and at some point we make 0.9.7 along with a changelog adjustment? Thoughts? ~N -- - Neels Hofmeyr <nhofmeyr(a)sysmocom.de> http://www.sysmocom.de/ ======================================================================= * sysmocom - systems for mobile communications GmbH * Alt-Moabit 93 * 10559 Berlin, Germany * Sitz / Registered office: Berlin, HRB 134158 B * Geschäftsführer / Managing Directors: Harald Welte

reduce gerrit mails?
by Neels Hofmeyr 15 Dec '16

15 Dec '16

Hi Gerrit users, I follow the gerrit mails to get notified of comments and to catch failing builds. The message that a build started or was successful though doesn't help me much, only clutters up space, really. Do you agree? If yes, I would try to silence the "Build started" and "Build successful" messages in our gerrit, if possible without too much effort... ~N

git tagging
by Max 14 Dec '16

14 Dec '16

Hi. With the migration to gerrit the situation around version tagging become even funnier than before. For example right now in libosmocore v0.9.3 does not exist as a git tag, only as entry in debian/changelog. Versions 0.9.5 and 0.9.6 are committed in reversed order - see output of git log --tags --show-notes --decorate | grep 'tag:' | head So the questions are: - how can I add tag '0.9.3' to commit abc46af90fde9e9435dee5f4f472aec3f68d3353 in libosmocore - how can we prevent the inverted commit situation as with 0.9.6 and 0.9.5 in future? - what's the general guidelines for tagging new versions? Do we go through gerrit or ask responsible person (who?) to do it manually? Or even auto-tag commit matching certain criteria? -- Max Suraev <msuraev(a)sysmocom.de> http://www.sysmocom.de/ ======================================================================= * sysmocom - systems for mobile communications GmbH * Alt-Moabit 93 * 10559 Berlin, Germany * Sitz / Registered office: Berlin, HRB 134158 B * Geschaeftsfuehrer / Managing Director: Harald Welte

Re: libosmocore[master]: Catch-up with git version tags

An ABI change requires increasing the version number of the .so files (see the libtool link in Makefile.am for exact rules but we only bump for incompatible versions). Another point here could be that we can't just create a new minor tag without checking this? Does our non-existent policy dictate that an ABI version change should cause a bump in a "middle" version number? i.e. if a commit has been merged that has ABI changes and I want to tag a commit in order to reference it from another project's configure.ac, am I forced to make a bigger version bump than just 0.9.4 -> 0.9.5? All this would be good topics for the next OsmoDevCon... ~N

I just created an account on osmocom.org and logged in to gerrit via osmocom.org/openid (account: BastusIII). As I have never used git-send-email I prefer the commit access. Thank you!

Would you suggest to do so already? yes, by all means. There's a difference between having code in the public for review / improvements by others and submitting it for inclsion into master as it is considered "fixed" If you want, I can give you commit access so you can push your private branches to git.osmocom.org. For that, you would have to create an account on gerrit.osmocom.org (which requires first creating one on osmocom.org) If you prefer to simply send a patchset by git-send-email or to host you git repos on github or any other git hosting site, that's fine, too. -- - Harald Welte <laforge(a)gnumonks.org> http://laforge.gnumonks.org/ ============================================================================ "Privacy in residential applications is a desirable marketing option."

new sanitizer breakage: SIGSEGV in sgsn_create_pdp_ctx()
by Neels Hofmeyr 13 Dec '16

13 Dec '16

The sanitizer build used to get through to testing the PCU, now it already fails at openbsc's sgsn test. This happens in the recently added test_pdp_deactivation_with_pdp_ctx: http://jenkins.osmocom.org/jenkins/job/Osmocom_Sanitizer/388/consoleFull commit 1611df5226199da2bf2fba3d22d93cc1a6c6c777 Commit: Pravin Kumarvel <pmanohar(a)radisys.com> CommitDate: Mon Dec 12 17:20:39 2016 +0530 Support Deactivate PDP Context Request from network https://gerrit.osmocom.org/1262 I can reproduce the segmentation fault locally, but only when the sanitizer is enabled. When stepping up to the failure and checking the parameters, all seems to be in order; immediately when trying to step into sgsn_create_pdp_ctx(), the SIGSEGV is fired. So far the actual failure is not clear to me, I haven't found the 0x02 pointer yet that asan complains about: ==21897==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: SEGV on unknown address 0x000000000002 I found a use-after-free which isn't the cause for above asan failure: gsm0408_gprs_access_cancelled(mm, GMM_CAUSE_GPRS_NOTALLOWED); LOGMMCTXP(LOGL_NOTICE, mm, "No PDP context to deactivate\n"); gsm0408_gprs_access_cancelled() calls mm_ctx_cleanup_free(), and after that the local mm is non-NULL but freed. Change the order to: LOGMMCTXP(LOGL_NOTICE, mm, "No PDP context to deactivate\n"); gsm0408_gprs_access_cancelled(mm, GMM_CAUSE_GPRS_NOTALLOWED); (This second issue is shown when removing test_pdp_deactivation_with_pdp_ctx() from test_pdp_deactivation()) The cause for the asan failure shown above and in jenkins still evades me. But I'm afraid we have to revert the patch. Please run the asan build on this patch and re-submit when the cause is clear.

Dear authors of Tbf, can you make sense of this build failure? https://jenkins.osmocom.org/jenkins/job/Osmocom_Sanitizer/373/console It shows that the expected stderr output of the TbfTest deviates, and the test exits prematurely. interesting output: +tbf_dl.cpp:766:65: runtime error: load of value 32767, which is not a valid value for type 'egprs_puncturing_values' -- got ack for BSN=1258 -- got ack for BSN=1259 -- got ack for BSN=1260 +- got NACK for BSN=1258 +- got NACK for BSN=1259 +- got NACK for BSN=1260 To help reproducing it, find below the jenkins script that runs this sanitizer build.

Osmo-bts/Osmocom-bb virtual layer 1
by Sebastian Stumpf 12 Dec '16

12 Dec '16

Hi, I further implemented the base of the virtual layer with the purpose of replacing the um-air interface with a multicast-socket solution. This has been started by Harald Welte some time ago in the Osmobts - laforge/virt-bts branch. As I was not really confident enough to create an official new branch before someone had a look on what I did, so I developed in copies of the osmocom-bb and osmo-bts projects on my github-page (https://github.com/BastusIII/osmocom-bb-virt/tree/stumpf/virt-um and https://github.com/BastusIII/osmo-bts-virt/tree/stumpf/virt-bts). If someone finds to time to have a look into them (structure, path, implementation) and give me feedback about it, I would be glad :). Please use the following config files that i have tested: - https://github.com/BastusIII/osmocom-config-files/blob/master/openbsc-virtu… - https://github.com/BastusIII/osmocom-config-files/blob/master/osmobts-virtu… - https://github.com/BastusIII/osmocom-config-files/blob/master/osmocom-bb-mo… What works: BTS: - downlink over gsmtap and a multicast socket - OML and RSL on abis properly established and seems to work - virtual-um connection establishment Osmocom-bb: - virtual-um -- l23 app connection establishment (bridging osmocon, no serial link needed) - BCCH downlink handling and forwarding to l23 app - handling of some l1ctl requests from l23 (e.g. power management had to be mocked, so l23 gets a response and is satisfied) What not: BTS: - missing uplink handling Osmocom-bb - missing uplink routines (RACH, TCH, dedicated channels) - handlers for l23 requests only partially implemented (missing TCH, RACH, ... I a currently a bit overwhelmed by the mass of messages exchanged between l23-app (used mobile, btw.) and the virtual-um and hanging because mobile gets a sync timeout. I am looking forward to hear from you :). Sebastian Stumpf
