WG: patch 12 14, 15, 16

-----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: openbsc-bounces(a)lists.gnumonks.org [mailto:openbsc-bounces@lists.gnumonks.org] Im Auftrag von Holger Freyther hi holger, here is what happens: BTS(new LAC) ATTACH -> DB = new LAC BTS(old LAC) DETACH -> DB = 0 the mobile attaches to the new LAC, so the database stores the new LAC number. next, the mobile detaches from the old LAC and the database stores 0 for 'not attached'. the database now holds a wrong value. to solve this, we may only allow detach, if the mobile is not already attached to a different location area: if (DB == old LAC) then DB = 0 else ignore! so the mobile can only detach from a BTS with the location it is currently attached. i checked the code yesterday. i saw that the subscriber is associated to a LAC and a bts when attaching. when detaching, the association to the bts is removed, if not already attached to a different one. is this correct? as far as i know, the attached subscriber is associated to a LAC only. it may silently change the BTS without location update, if the MCC/MNC/LAC is equal on this BTS. when we page a mobile, we must do it on all BTS of that location area, as far as i know. (see patch 27) if the mobile requests a channel, it chooses one of the BTS. i think we must remove the "current_bts" pointer from the subscriber structure. andreas
