TBF and API design.. (boolean/int trap)
by Holger Hans Peter Freyther 25 Aug '13

25 Aug '13

Good Evening, I started a branch to add a basic structure to the TBF handling. The reasons why I am doing this is for another lengthy email. I just came across a piece of code and would like to create some awareness: int write_immediate_assignment(bitvec * dest, uint8_t downlink, uint8_t ra, uint32_t ref_fn, uint8_t ta, uint16_t arfcn, uint8_t ts, uint8_t tsc, uint8_t tfi, uint8_t usf, uint32_t tlli, uint8_t polling, uint32_t fn, uint8_t single_block, uint8_t alpha, uint8_t gamma, int8_t ta_idx); and invocations like: if (sb) plen = write_immediate_assignment(immediate_assignment, 0, ra, Fn, qta >> 2, bts->trx[trx].arfcn, ts, bts->trx[trx].pdch[ts].tsc, 0, 0, 0, 0, sb_fn, 1, bts->alpha, bts->gamma, -1); else plen = write_immediate_assignment(immediate_assignment, 0, ra, Fn, tbf->ta, tbf->arfcn, tbf->first_ts, tbf->tsc, tbf->tfi, tbf->dir.ul.usf[tbf->first_ts], 0, 0, 0, 0, bts->alpha, bts->gamma, -1); With the above method and two invocations it is difficult to get all arguments right and it is a strong argument against ever writing code like this. With C++ one could create overloads that take the bts and tbf as parameters. Or if one really only wants to have a single method use a struct to pass the parameters. This has the benefit of naming the parameters and will certainly require the same amount of stack space as the current option. So please, don't write methods like the above as they make maintaining the code more difficult than it needs to be. holger -- - Holger Freyther <hfreyther(a)sysmocom.de> http://www.sysmocom.de/ ======================================================================= * sysmocom - systems for mobile communications GmbH * Schivelbeiner Str. 5 * 10439 Berlin, Germany * Sitz / Registered office: Berlin, HRB 134158 B * Geschaeftsfuehrer / Managing Directors: Holger Freyther, Harald Welte

C++ for the PCU
by Holger Hans Peter Freyther 05 Aug '13

05 Aug '13

Dear Ivan, all, I started to do work on the PCU and didn't compile C++ for a long time. I was surprised how long it takes to compile the code. From my point of view we are taking the hit of g++ without really using any of the features that C++ vould provide (e.g. no stack variables with automatic cleanup..).

[PATCH 1/8] misc: Introduce a struct osmo_pcu and move things into it.
by Holger Freyther 30 Jul '13

30 Jul '13

From: Holger Hans Peter Freyther <holger(a)moiji-mobile.com> One of the issues with not properly re-setting everything is that due the global state it is not clear which variables belong together and how long it exists.

[PATCH 1/2] misc: Remove if (timer_pending) stop_timer idiom from the code
by Holger Hans Peter Freyther 29 Jul '13

29 Jul '13

osmo_timer_del is an idempotent operation. There is no requirement to check if it is running. If you don't want a timer to run, delete it. Maybe one should have called the method _unschedule, _cancel to make this more clear. --- src/gprs_bssgp_pcu.cpp | 6 ++---- src/sysmo_sock.cpp | 3 +-- 2 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/gprs_bssgp_pcu.cpp b/src/gprs_bssgp_pcu.cpp index 54753b8..c791913 100644 --- a/src/gprs_bssgp_pcu.cpp +++ b/src/gprs_bssgp_pcu.cpp @@ -515,8 +515,7 @@ static int nsvc_signal_cb(unsigned int subsys, unsigned int signal, case S_NS_BLOCK: if (nsvc_unblocked) { nsvc_unblocked = 0; - if (osmo_timer_pending(&bvc_timer)) - osmo_timer_del(&bvc_timer); + osmo_timer_del(&bvc_timer); bvc_sig_reset = 0; bvc_reset = 0; bvc_unblocked = 0; @@ -646,8 +645,7 @@ void gprs_bssgp_destroy(void) if (!bssgp_nsi) return; - if (osmo_timer_pending(&bvc_timer)) - osmo_timer_del(&bvc_timer); + osmo_timer_del(&bvc_timer); osmo_signal_unregister_handler(SS_L_NS, nsvc_signal_cb, NULL); diff --git a/src/sysmo_sock.cpp b/src/sysmo_sock.cpp index a4cc6de..d4fb5a6 100644 --- a/src/sysmo_sock.cpp +++ b/src/sysmo_sock.cpp @@ -304,8 +304,7 @@ void pcu_l1if_close(void) if (!state) return; - if (osmo_timer_pending(&state->timer)) - osmo_timer_del(&state->timer); + osmo_timer_del(&state->timer); bfd = &state->conn_bfd; if (bfd->fd > 0) -- 1.8.3.2

Weird usage of gprs_ns_vty_init from gprs_bssgp_create
by Holger Hans Peter Freyther 13 Jul '13

13 Jul '13

Dear Andreas, Ivan, when trying to understand the CPU usage of the PCU without having any subscribers I noticed the following backtrace: #0 _int_malloc (av=0x402fe4d4, bytes=52) at malloc.c:3241 #1 0x4023a3b8 in __GI___libc_malloc (bytes=52) at malloc.c:2859 #2 0x4929b6e8 in _talloc_zero () from /usr/lib/libosmocore.so.4 #3 0x49422e44 in vector_init () from /usr/lib/libosmovty.so.0 #4 0x4941f1f8 in install_element () from /usr/lib/libosmovty.so.0 #5 0x492e602c in gprs_ns_vty_init () from /usr/lib/libosmogb.so.2 #6 0x0001b670 in gprs_bssgp_create (local_port=<optimized out>, sgsn_ip=184194049, sgsn_port=<optimized out>, nsei=<optimized out>, nsvci=2, bvci=2, mcc=<optimized out>, mnc=<optimized out>, lac=1, rac=0, cell_id=0) at gprs_bssgp_pcu.cpp:585 #7 0x00016990 in pcu_rx_info_ind (info_ind=0x7) at pcu_l1_if.cpp:431 #8 pcu_rx (msg_type=<optimized out>, pcu_prim=0x3) at pcu_l1_if.cpp:577 #9 0x00017914 in pcu_sock_read (bfd=0x6a3f0) at sysmo_sock.cpp:151 #10 pcu_sock_cb (bfd=0x6a3f0, flags=1) at sysmo_sock.cpp:218 #11 0x49294ff4 in osmo_select_main () from /usr/lib/libosmocore.so.4 #12 0x0000a668 in main (argc=<optimized out>, argv=0xbee40b04) at pcu_main.cpp:219 This means when a info indication is received gprs_bssgp_create will be called which will re-initialize the VTY commands but more important re-set vty_nsi inside the VTY code of libosmogb. But it also means that vty_nsi will be a dangling pointer in case of 1.) gprs_ns_nsip_connect, btsctx_alloc, gprs_ns_nsip_listen fail 2.) Between the sysmobts software exiting and re-starting and bringing OML back up 3.) More cases that I might not understand. The dangling pointer will lead to a crash when the VTY of the PCU is used in such situation/window. does any of you care to fix that race? I think the easiest would be to just close/open/bind/listen/connect on the NS once we get a new config. holger -- - Holger Freyther <hfreyther(a)sysmocom.de> http://www.sysmocom.de/ ======================================================================= * sysmocom - systems for mobile communications GmbH * Schivelbeiner Str. 5 * 10439 Berlin, Germany * Sitz / Registered office: Berlin, HRB 134158 B * Geschaeftsfuehrer / Managing Directors: Holger Freyther, Harald Welte

umerged timing advance patch for pcu
by jolly 11 May '13

11 May '13

hi ivan, there is still one patch left in my jolly/meas branch that has not been mergen: commit 890ae7e4fcf7d74c238ed2ce0e3f090f1af492c2 and the fixup: commit 784f9004ba3576ede57dada63876451f32d2d852 it keeps the timing advance from a TBF and uses it for new TBFs, so the mobile can be at any distance. this was tested up to 4 km (with sysmobts). if it is ok, i will combine these patches and push the result to master. regards, andreas

problems with dissecting
by jolly 03 Mar '13

03 Mar '13

hi, steve and me experienced a problem with dissecting a "packet resource request" at pcu. the patch i attached will show the following output: $ make && src/osmo-pcu PayloadType = 1 | spare = 0 | R = 0 | MESSAGE_TYPE = 5 | Exist_ACCESS_TYPE = 1 | ACCESS_TYPE = 3 | : ID | Choice PacketResourceRequestID = 1 | u.TLLI = 0x7ee0e8fd | : End ID | Exist_MS_Radio_Access_capability = 1 | : MS_Radio_Access_capability | MS_RA_capability_value { | Choice MS_RA_capability_value_Choice = 1 | u.Content length = 34 | RF_Power_Capability = 4 | Exist_A5_bits = 1 | A5_bits = 96 | ES_IND = 1 | PS = 0 | VGCS = 0 | VBS = 0 | Exist_Multislot_capability = 1 | : Multislot_capability | Exist_HSCSD_multislot_class = 0 | Exist_GPRS_multislot_class = 1 | GPRS_multislot_class = 10 .... this is all correct, but then i patched the get_ms_class_by_capability() function at grps_rlcmac_data.c: ... printf("we have = %d\n", cap->Count_MS_RA_capability_value); for (i = 0; i < cap->Count_MS_RA_capability_value; i++) { printf("index=%d\n", cap->MS_RA_capability_value[i].IndexOfAccTech); printf("exists multislot capability %d\n", cap->MS_RA_capability_value[i].u.Content.Exist_Multislot_capability); printf("exists class %d\n", cap->MS_RA_capability_value[i].u.Content.Multislot_capability.Exist_GPRS_multislot_class); printf("class %d\n", cap->MS_RA_capability_value[i].u.Content.Multislot_capability.GPRS_multislot_class); ... the output continues as this: we have = 2 index=2 exists multislot capability 0 exists class 1 class 10 index=0 exists multislot capability 0 exists class 0 class 0 the "class 10" is correct, also it is correct that the class only exists in the first entry of the capability array. the output of the dissector states that multislot capability exists (Exist_Multislot_capability = 1), but if i look at the structure, this field is not set. i looked at the dissector code, but don't really understand why CSN_NEXT_EXIST works for some elements and not for others. any ideas? regards, andreas
