dear holger,

i tried your channel allocation stress-test patch for openbsc with osmo-bts-trx. i had no crashes, but it helped me to find a bug in the scheduler. i remember that there was an issue that causes a crash of osmo-bts (sysmobts, trx ?), but i am not sure. if so, can you give me a hint, which test procedure caused a crash?

Allocating all channels with the sysmobts was enough to provoke the crash. I am happy that my stress-testing branch exposed a defect that you were able to resolve.

In terms of reviewing and merging your sap patches, the only way forward is to make them as small as possible and incrementally, and one should avoid methods with hundreds of lines of codes.
