did you load hfcmulti.ko with dslot=1 parameter? this is required to move dchannel slot from 16 to 1. > Mon May 25 16:07:39 2009 <1000> input/misdn.c:125 alen =6, dev(0) channel(0) sapi(63) tei(127) > Mon May 25 16:07:39 2009 <1000> input/misdn.c:128 <= len = 12, prim(0x8) id(0x7f3f): DL_INFORMATION_IND > Mon May 25 16:07:39 2009 <1000> input/misdn.c:135 DL_INFORMATION_IND: use channel(0) sapi(63) tei(127) for now > ISDN message for unknown sign_link >

AW: patch: 16_subscr_lac
by Andreas.Eversberg 24 May '09

This patch in conjunction with patch 15 (paging lac) makes patch 8 (paging) obsolete. > The patch will store the current LAC in the HLC when the subscriber successfully attaches. If the subscriber detaches, the LAC will be set to 0. > This patch is required to make patch 15 (paging) work. This patch does not depend on any other patch i made.

patch: 14_DMM
by Andreas.Eversberg 24 May '09

a minor fix of DMM debugging. now MM debugging is shown, if given by debug option, not only by default debugging. the color of DNM debugging changes to cyan as it is supposed to be.

patch: 15_paging_lac
by Andreas.Eversberg 24 May '09

24 May '09

This patch will resolve all BTS with the LAC of the subscriber and page every BTS with this LAC. If the subscriber is not currently attached, the LAC is not set, so the caller will get cleared with cause 27 (MO out of order). This patch must be applied AFTER patch 12 (application interface) has been applied.

patch: 11_trau
by Andreas.Eversberg 24 May '09

24 May '09

I improved trau_mux.c. Now it supports not just bridging only. A new function "trau_recv_lchan" is used to link a channel to a call reference of a transaction. (Transactions are used in later patches.) TRAU frames will then be forwarded to the application with the given call reference (in later patches). Also the application can send TRAU frames by using "trau_send_lchan". A new list is introduced in trau_mux.c. (upqueue_entry) All subslots that must be sent to application are listed here. Received TRAU frames are written in the upqueue of application interface, if a call reference is found in the upqueue-list. If an entry is found the ss_entry list, the TRAU frames are bridged as before. The frames have a message type (msg_type), a call reference (callref) and a trau frame (data). The length of trau frame is defined by the content of the c-bits inside the frame. There is no support for ip-access yet. Harald must add this in order to use application interface with ip-access. The bridging with ip-access works as before.

i use the calling party's BTS, because the subscriber database does not contain the current BTS number of the subscriber last seen. (or detached) i agree that the subscriber gives us information about the paged bts and we can resolve the gsm_network from that also. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Harald Welte [mailto:laforge@gnumonks.org] Gesendet: Samstag, 23.

Ah, ok, in the case we do not successfully allocate a lchan, then that's obviously NULL. Still, when you call paging_request() you actually pass on a number of parameters, including: 1) the BTS on which you want to page (whcih, indeed, is currently the BTS of the calling party rather than the called party). So this parameter is likely to get removed soon. 2) The subscriber that was called. This should be used by paging_request() to resolve the BTS that this subscriber was last seen/registered to. 3) a reference to the call, which is treated as an opaque pointer that is passed back as a reference when calling the call-back function. So if the bts of the calling or called party needs to be known, it should probably be referenced from that data structure.

i don't know if it works with the latest mISDN. have you tested it? if it doesn't work, we need to fix it. do you have any idea why it does not work with mISDN? -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Harald Welte [mailto:laforge@gnumonks.org] Gesendet: Samstag, 23.

AW: patch: 8_paging
by Andreas.Eversberg 23 May '09

here is the problem: we don't know about the called bts, if - the subscriber detaches after paging was started and the current_bts pointer inside subscriber is NULL. - the lchan is not set because paging expires. we can use the network pointer instead of the bts pointer for paging callback function. the gsm_network is required when paging result is received. all transactions (call instances) are linked in a list in gsm_network. (see patch 13) even if paging expires, the transactions in this list with the same subscriber must be released. (MO out of order) but it is more complex: the subscriber will not be NULL, because it is "used" by the transactions. the use-counter of subscriber is increased for every transaction created and decreased on release of that transaction. if there is a call process for the paged subscriber, the subscr is set when paging response is received. we need at least a pointer to the network to access the transactions. we can keep paging callback function without bts (or network) pointer, but then we need a network pointer in gsm_subscriber to process the network's paging result. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: openbsc-bounces(a)lists.gnumonks.org [mailto:openbsc-bounces@lists.gnumonks.org] Im Auftrag von Andreas.Eversberg Gesendet: Samstag, 23.

you can copy compat_af_isdn.h from mISDNuser package, as you did with mISDNif.h. (socket branch) then you don't need the user package. i think i forgot to copy it to the include/openbsc/ directory. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Harald Welte [mailto:laforge@gnumonks.org] Gesendet: Samstag, 23.

As the current socket-based mISDN headers cannot yet be expected to be present on most linux distributions, I would rather not create any additional external dependencies. I have no problem with updating our header files, but they should not create additional dependencies. -- - Harald Welte <laforge(a)gnumonks.org> http://laforge.gnumonks.org/ ============================================================================ "Privacy in residential applications is a desirable marketing option."
