Silent Call vs Test Call vs A-bis Proxy (ip.access-proxy)

by j h

Could someone explain to me the difference between Silent Call, Test Call, and A-bis proxy (ip.access-proxy). To my understanding Test Call opens a pass through UDP port straight to the MS. While SilentCall just creates just creates a open channel. My confusion I believe comes from where you're "sitting" in the eco-system between Silent Call and Test Call. I also am confused after looking at ip.access-proxy. It clearly opens a port for injection either towards the BSC or BTS. However, does a silent-call need to be active to get data to the MS? When I try to inject a simple SMS using ip.access-proxy, (via copying traffic seen across ip.access), I get length disagrees with header. What is ip.access injection expecting in terms of data format? Thanks

Pysim error: SW match failed

Also I have tried forcing different models of SIM, but nothing is working. Obviously I can remove this check from the script file (__init__.py in /pySim/transport), however somebody had a reason to put such condition there. I would like to ask if it is safe to remove that line of code and the purpose of that line of code. Thanks a lot and best regards Martin

Stress-testing sysmobts of osmo-bts

by Holger Hans Peter Freyther

Hi, I have pushed zecke/work/msgq-reading2 with a work in progress improvement for handling a load from a stress-test. The stress test is to allocate all lchan's at the same time (then let them fail through the radio link timeout) and re-allocate them. This forces the BTS to constantly need to open/close the logical channel resources and also send some (idle) frames (LAPDm is not established in this case). The BTS was sending frames too late and after looking at it with perf it looked like a latency issue (no one is really using the CPU). I have implemented various changes, not all of them are ready: * Change the Bad-Frame-Indicator level to have radio link timeouts with no phone being present. In the above test-case channels remained open as there was no bad-frame-indication on these channels. Pro: There is a constant load for all open channels Bad: We could do this as part of the MphTimeInd but then need to add a bit to the counter to remember if the counter was modified and we need to handle bad frame in two places. * Use writev for the write_queue. This code should/could move into the libosmocore. So for our primitives queue all primitives are the same length and we can use writev to write several frames as the same time. 1.) We go through the queued messages and add them to the iovec 2.) We use writev 3.) We do written / prim_size to see how many buffers were written 4.) We go throuh the queued messages with llist_for_each_entry_safe and remove the count of messages sent. 5.) We check if there are messages left and re-set the notify on writable bit. * Use readv for reading from the queue. This means that we need to allocate N msgb's, call readv, dispatch the messages, free the extra msgb's. Pro: In idle mode there is at least one message to read, with channels open it is likely we will read several messages at once. Bad: Allocating memory is not free. We could start using talloc pools, we could add a msgb_alloc_headroom that does not memset (talloc_zero) the memory. * The above made noticable differences but I also had to get the realtime hammer. I have decided to use SCHED_RR (instead of SCHED_FIFO). This is done with osmo-pcu in mind that needs to read from queues as well and both bts/pcu should be able to inerrupt each other. * For the ts_meas_check_compute we can stop processing the entire TS once we reach a lchan of type lchan == GSM_LCHAN_NONE. (We still need to add a memset of the lchan array into the oml.c code in case there is a re-config). TCH/F: Only lchan[0] is used. TCH/H: Only lchan[0,1] are used. SDCCH8: All of them are used CCCH: lchan[4] is used but we will have no power measurements anyway CCCH/SDCCH4: lchan[0-3] are used. What is not done: * Change the l1if primitive to either use or 'steal' the msgb. All the msgb_free could be removed, only if we forward the MSGB to the PCU socket we would 'steal' it. This would allow us to avoid calling msgb_alloc and msgb_free most of the time. * Add SCHED_RR to the pcu code as well. * Create a talloc pool for the primitives (or re-use the msgb across multiple reads). please review and comment holger

Nokia InSite GPRS

by Sipos Csaba

Hi, We have two Nokia Insite BTSs and now we are configuring it to work with OpenBSC. But after we installed all the necessary parts (OpenGGSN, OpenSGSN, OpenBSC) we got the following message: "This BTS type does not support gprs" I just wanted to ask that maybe we did something wrong, or the GPRS support for Nokia InSite is not ready yet? If the support is not ready yet maybe there is some alfa or beta stage version that we can try? Nokia Insite family supports GRPS CS-1 and CS-2 according to the specification. Thanks in advance!

Latest OpenBSC repo regression

by ty

Hi folks I pulled the latest repo of OpenBsc but upon compilation, it breaks while running 'make' Everything else compiled fine, libosmocore and libosmo-abis. I'm running this on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Here is the make error. make[3]: Entering directory `/home/tyrus/openbsc/openbsc/src/libcommon' CC common_vty.o In file included from common_vty.c:30:0: ../../include/openbsc/bsc_nat.h:35:37: fatal error: osmocom/sccp/sccp_types.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. make[3]: *** [common_vty.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/tyrus/openbsc/openbsc/src/libcommon' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/tyrus/openbsc/openbsc/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 After fiddling around I couldnt find the sccp dir with its contents so when i checked the git diff I found it was in this tree http://git.zerfleddert.de/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi/bs11/commitdiff/e9359db5803bae… However when i manually created the files and dirs, it was just a nightmare. Anyone with pointers how to fix this, ill really appreciate -tyrus
