Segfault from Race condition when closing channel?
by Harald Welte 05 Jul '10

05 Jul '10

As horiz0n on IRC points out: 00:16 <horiz0n> hehe, calling the c123 from my 9500 communicator crashes openbsc 00:17 <horiz0n> here is the log http://notepad.cc/share/LQ3awCtXz9 00:21 <horiz0n> and here the debug log http://notepad.cc/share/tPJYXo3SJG <0000> abis_rsl.c:1388 (bts=0,trx=0,ts=1,ss=0) SAPI=0 DATA INDICATION <0003> gsm_04_08.c:1109 CIPHERING MODE COMPLETE <0003> gsm_04_08_utils.c:197 Sending Channel Release: Chan: Number: 0 Type: 2 <0004> abis_rsl.c:586 (bts=0,trx=0,ts=1,ss=0) DEACTivate SACCH CMD <0000> chan_alloc.c:363 (bts=0,trx=0,ts=1,ss=0) Recycling Channel <0000> abis_rsl.c:1388 (bts=0,trx=0,ts=1,ss=0) SAPI=0 DATA INDICATION ./runbsc.sh: line 6: 1179 Segmentation fault sudo ./bsc_hack -e 1 -d DINP:DNM:DRSL:DRR:DMM:DCC:DRLL:DMNCC:DSMS:DPAG,0:0:0 So what happens: We get a CM Service request, then go through authentication and ciphering. At that point, the network decides to release the channel and the channel is not completely closed yet (only SACCH deactivated) when we get an incoming SETUP message. This message is treated as a new message (msc_compl_l3, but it has no conn->subscr and the code segfaults in trans_find_by_id(subscr=NULL, ...) So I think there are actually multiple bugs. 1) the channel should not be released at that time 2) we have some kind of a race condition at channel release, where incoming messages should either be discarded _or_ should still be processed with all the data structures intact.

GPRS / OsmoSGSN status update
by Harald Welte 03 Jul '10

03 Jul '10

Good news, everyone [tm] GPRS is by now in a fairly useful state. I've spent the better part of the last 3 days to fix all the remaining known bugs. It is working fine from a variety of phones including a G1 (MSM7200) , K800i (unkown baseband), TYTN2 (also Qualcomm MSM but with windows mobile), E680 (Neptune LTE), ... The following parts are still missing: * Integration with the HLR, so every phone is accepted on GPRS * IP Header compression (ROHC) * Data compression (v.42bis) * Authentication (depends on HLR integration) * GEA3 Encryption (though most of the infrastructure is there) * Ability to route APNs to different GGSNs So everyone who has access to a nanoBTS: Try it now. The build/config instructions haven't changed from what I described last time when I wrote a GPRS status update to this list. Happy hacking, Harald -- - Harald Welte <laforge(a)gnumonks.org> http://laforge.gnumonks.org/ ============================================================================ "Privacy in residential applications is a desirable marketing option."

It logged until the segmentation fault happened. Additionally, I have captured the bsc_hack output and valgrind output in the other file. There you also find the openbsc config file. Only bsc_hack was started, without lcr or openggsn for this testing. We use two nanoBTS - ipaccess-find prints out: MAC Address='00:02:95:00:2f:b7' IP Address='10.1.1.10' Unit ID='1802/0/0' Location 1='' Location 2='BTS_NBT131G' Equipment Version='165a029_48' Software Version='168c002_v100b16d0' Unit Name='nbts-00-02-95-00-2F-B7' Serial Number='00071355' MAC Address='00:02:95:00:57:3e' IP Address='10.1.1.11' Unit ID='1800/0/0' Location 1='' Location 2='BTS_NBT131G' Equipment Version='165a029_55' Software Version='168a302_v142b13d0' Unit Name='nbts-00-02-95-00-57-3E' Serial Number='00107709' Each BTS has its own part in the openbsc.cfg > > please confirm that both the SMS crash and the NACKs are resolved. I loaded and built the current version from OpenBSC (Jun., 30. ~ 3:00 p.m.). SMS still crashes when sending from vty console. As far as I can tell, the NACKs are resolved. > > thanks thank you too!

Cryptography VTY Bugreport
by Philipp Fabian Benedikt Maier 02 Jul '10

02 Jul '10

Hi folks. I am currently playing with the crypto features of openBSC. When i want to enter the key for a specific subscriber in the VTY console openBSC crashes. When i create the entry manually with sqlite3 and try again the entry in the database will be overwritten and it seems to work. The string i entered in VTY was: subscriber imsi 001010000000000 a3a8 comp128v1 DEADBEEF0C0FFEE0F00D013370D00F23 The gdb backtrace is: openbsc@openBSC:~/openbsc/openbsc/src$ gdb -- pid 1612 GNU gdb (GDB) 7.1-ubuntu Copyright (C) 2010 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Arfcn calculation tool
by Philipp Fabian Benedikt Maier 30 Jun '10

30 Jun '10

Hi Folks. I always found it annoying to calculate the correspondending frequency of an arfcn by hand or with the webbased arfcn calculator. So i wrote a little program to do the work for me: http://www.root.runningserver.com/web/runningserver/software/arfcncalc.tar Maybe the one or other here on the list will find it useful. regards.

[PATCH] * Fix null ptr dereference and sms memleak in case the recipient of an sms sent via vty is not attached. Store the sms in the database in this case for later delivery.
by Nico Golde 30 Jun '10

30 Jun '10

The problem is that sms_from_text returns NULL in case the subscriber is not attached which a) leaks memory of the previously allocated sms and b) runs into a null ptr dereference in _send_sms_str(). There may be a better solution than this but this is the easiest way of noticing and taking action I could find without changing return values of sms_from_text. --- openbsc/src/vty_interface_layer3.c | 16 ++++++++++------ 1 files changed, 10 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/openbsc/src/vty_interface_layer3.c b/openbsc/src/vty_interface_layer3.c index d80f7c9..0a65eec 100644 --- a/openbsc/src/vty_interface_layer3.c +++ b/openbsc/src/vty_interface_layer3.c @@ -166,11 +166,6 @@ struct gsm_sms *sms_from_text(struct gsm_subscriber *receiver, const char *text) if (!sms) return NULL; - if (!receiver->lac) { - /* subscriber currently not attached, store in database? */ - return NULL; - } - sms->receiver = subscr_get(receiver); strncpy(sms->text, text, sizeof(sms->text)-1); @@ -195,7 +190,16 @@ static int _send_sms_str(struct gsm_subscriber *receiver, char *str, sms = sms_from_text(receiver, str); sms->protocol_id = tp_pid; - gsm411_send_sms_subscr(receiver, sms); + + if(!receiver->lac){ + /* subscriber currently not attached, store in database */ + if (db_sms_store(sms) != 0) { + LOGP(DSMS, LOGL_ERROR, "Failed to store SMS in Database\n"); + return CMD_WARNING; + } + } else { + gsm411_send_sms_subscr(receiver, sms); + } return CMD_SUCCESS; } -- 1.7.1

Working GSM1800 config for latest OpenBSC
by Stephen Mortimer 28 Jun '10

28 Jun '10

I have a ip.access nanoBTS (version 165AU9012)v(37) and have been using it with a very early version of OpenBSC (OpenBSC 0.01) and am now trying to upgrade to the latest version downloaded from GIT (OpenBSC version 0.9.0.565-993d). When I use the configuration that works on the old version, with this latest version, I get the following error: user@ubuntu:~/openbsc/src$ ./bsc_hack <0005> bsc_init.c:1024 WARNING: You are running an 'accept-all' network on a BTS that is not barred.
