Original libvlr code is by Harald Welte <laforge@gnumonks.org>,
polished and tweaked by Neels Hofmeyr <nhofmeyr@sysmocom.de>.
This is a long series of development collapsed in one patch. The original
history may still be available as branch neels/vlr_orig.
TODO: This commit may be split in several smaller changes before merging to
master.
SMS:
The SQL based lookup of SMS for attached subscribers no longer works since the
SQL database no longer has the subscriber data. Replace with a round-robin on
the SMS recipient MSISDNs paired with a VLR subscriber RAM lookup whether the
subscriber is currently attached.
If there are many SMS for not-attached subscribers in the SMS database, this
will become inefficient: a DB hit returns a pending SMS, the RAM lookup will
reveal that the subscriber is not attached, after which the DB is hit for the
next SMS. It would become more efficient e.g. by having an MSISDN based hash
list for the VLR subscribers and by marking non-attached SMS recipients in the
SMS database so that they can be excluded with the SQL query already.
There is a sanity limit to do at most 100 db hits per attempt to find a pending
SMS. So if there are more than 100 stored SMS waiting for their recipients to
actually attach to the MSC, it may take more than one SMS queue trigger to
deliver SMS for subscribers that are actually attached.
This is not very beautiful, but is merely intended to carry us over to a time
when we have a proper separate SMSC entity.
Introduce gsm_subscriber_connection ref-counting in libmsc.

The previous commit added a network backpointer to gsm_subscriber_connection.
Use it wherever it makes sense, to skip the step through the bts structure.
In some places, remove local variables that become unused.

The idea of "subscriber_get_channel" was that different
requests would be coordinated. At the same time we have
seen that the "queue" can get stuck at both 31C3 and the
rhizomatica installations.
Voice calls and SMS do not need coordination. We should
be able to send SMS on a voice channel and switch the MS
from a SDCCH to a TCH in case we establish a voice call.
The SMS code itself needs to coordinate to obey the limit
of one SMS per direction but this should be enforced in
the sms layer and not on the subscriber.
Modify the code to have a simple paging coordination. The
subscriber code will schedule the paging and register who
would like to know about success/failure.
This allowed to greatly simplify the paging response
handling for the transaction code (and in fact we could
move the transaction list into the subscriber structure
now). The code gained to support to cancel the notification
of a request (but not the paging itself yet).
TODO: Cancel paging request in case no one cares about it
anymore.

The trans_alloc function still uses the subscr object to access the
network object.
This patch adds an explicit net parameter to this function and
removes the access to subscr to obtain it.

Currently every subcriber object directly refers to the gsm_network
which contains a flag shared by every related subscriber
(keep_subscr). This adds a dependency on gsm_network even if only the
function defined in gsm_subscriber_base.c are used.
This patch adds a new struct gsm_subscriber_group which contains the
keep_subscr flag and a back reference to the network object. The
latter is not dereferenced in gsm_subscriber_base.c, so it can safely
be set to NULL when only that part of the gsm_subscriber API is being
used. It also changes that API to use gsm_subscriber_group instead of
gsm_network parameters.
Since there are some places where a pointer to the gsm_network is
needed but where only a gsm_subscriber is available, a 'net' back
pointer is added to the group struct, too. Nevertheless subscr group
and network could be separated completely, but this is not the topic
of this commit.

Currently the net pointer is obtained from trans->subscr->net. On the
other hand, the list gsm_trans object is managed by the net object.
This patch adds the back pointer to the structure and replaces all
trans->subscr->net by trans->net expressions. In trans_alloc() the
trans->net pointer is obtained from the subscr object.

Make finding use-after-free more easy and set it to NULL.
|
|
This is a cosmetic change and should happen to find use after free
of the subscriber.
|
|
This is more a work around and one still needs to implement a
proper dispatch on the opening of the connection. If there is no
operation left, no transaction and no silent call, close down the
channel.

The BSC code does not use transactions, move it to the libmsc.
