The BCCH carrier (sometimes called C0) of a BTS shall maintain
discontinuous Downlink transmission at full power in order to
stay 'visible' to the mobile stations. Because of that, early
versions of 3GPP TS 45.008 prohibited BS power reduction on C0.
However, starting from version 13.0.0 (2015-11) there is a feature
called 'BCCH carrier power reduction operation'. This is a special
mode of operation, where the variation of RF level for some
timeslots is relaxed for the purpose of energy saving.
In BCCH carrier power reduction operation, for timeslots on the
C0 carrier, except timeslots carrying BCCH/CCCH, the output power
may be lower than the output power used for timeslots carrying
BCCH/CCCH. In this case the maximum allowed difference in output
power actually transmitted by the BTS is 6 dB.
Introduce a VTY command to turn on and off the BCCH carrier power
reduction operation. Also introduce a CTRL command. On the
A-bis/RSL, abuse the BS POWER CONTROL message by setting
the Channel Number IE to 0x80 (RSL_CHAN_BCCH).
Currently, only osmo-bts-trx is supported. A value greater than
zero makes it reduce the power on *inactive* timeslots of the
BCCH carrier. Sending zero disables the BCCH power reduction
mode completely.
For more details, see 3GPP TS 45.008, section 7.1, and 3GPP TR 45.926.

According to 3GPP TS 45.008, the BSS shall monitor the levels of
interference on its IDLE traffic channels. The actual measurements
are performed in the BTS and then reported to the BSC over the
A-bis/RSL link(s) in RF RESource INDication messages.
3GPP TS 45.008 defines the following measurement parameters:
* Intave: Interference Averaging period (see table A.1),
* Interference level Boundaries (see table A.1).
Both parameters are sent to the BTS over the A-bis/OML, and can
now be configured via the VTY interface. Only those BTS models
which 'speak' the OML protocol defined in 3GPP TS 52.021 will
actually get the configured parameters, others will keep using
the hard-coded parameters.

This patch caused major breakage in my setup, with BSC printing at
startup: "(bts=0,trx=0) Failed to generate System Information".
And bts-trx printing all the time:
"sysinfo.c:162 PH-RTS-IND: Unable to determine actual BS_AG_BLKS_RES
value as SI3 is not available yet, fallback to 1"
This reverts commit c1a5310a3ed75ff24dc2d6a48c09d8dfc89d944c.

The effects of the neighbor configuration depend on the LAC, Cell
Identity, ARFCN, BSIC configuration of neighbor cells. Make sure that
the neighbor ARFCN list in the System Information is updated.
This may seem rather aggressive: updating the SI of all BTS if only one
config item changed. But indeed even modifying one config item of one
BTS may cause a change in the neighbor relations that many other BTS may
have to the changed BTS. For example, if many BTS configure a
'neighbor lac-ci 42 23', and this cell's config changes to LAC 43, all
of those other BTS need to update their neighbor ARFCNs.
Also update the system information even before the BTS are connected and
started up. The main benefit here is that the VTY 'show bts N' command
then already lists the correct neighbor ARFCNs.
In gsm_bts_trx_set_system_infos(), make sure that the updated SI is only
sent to TRXes that are actually usable, otherwise abis_rsl_sendmsg()
spams the log with complaints that a message's dst == NULL. Still return
an error rc in case a TRX is not connected, so that the CTRL command
bts.N.send-new-system-informations accurately returns whether SI were
actually sent to all TRXes.
The desire to have the ARFCNs listed in the VTY before starting up BTSes
came during analysis for Ifb54d9a91e9bca032c721f12c873c6216733e7b1,
which fixes a bug that is now much easier to verify being fixed.

sysmoBTS is a BTS model sold by Sysmocom, which runs osmo-bts.
The later may also work with some other back-ends, including
the genaral purpose SDR hardware. Therefore, it's more
logical to call it 'osmo-bts'.

Calculating the Cell Allocation (basically a bit-vector of all the
frequencies allocated to a cell) on the OML link establishment has
several downsides and potential problems:
* Theoretically, more than 64 ARFCNs can be allocated for a cell
via the VTY interface. The problem here is that the Mobile
Allocation IE cannot contain more than 64 channels.
* The BSC's operator will neither be warned by the interactive
VTY shell during configuration, nor during the startup.
* The BSC will accept such a configuration, but then will be
unable to encode the Mobile Allocation IEs at run-time.
This change aims to improve the situation by separating part of
the logic from generate_cell_chan_list(), and invoking this
part directly from the VTY commands. This way it will become
impossible to configure more than 64 ARFCNs, neither via the
config file, nor interactively from the VTY.

It is observed that a CHANnel ReQuireD with access delay
greater than 63 can be received from the Ericsson RBS.
This results in osmo-bsc sending back a CHANnel ACTIVation with
a Timing Advance IE containing the access delay value.
The RBS NACKs this, leading to a BORKEN Channel.
This patch makes the maximum acceptable access delay vty-configurable
and Ignores CHANnel ReQuireD RSL Messages with Access Delay IE greater
than that configured. Default value is 63.

The neighbor configuration storage is fundamentally broken: it requires
all local cells to be configured before being able to list them as
neighbors of each other. Upon config write-back, the neighbor config
however is placed back inline with the other config, and hence a
written-out neighbor config no longer works on program restart.
The cause of this problem is that the config is stored as explicit
pointers between local cells (struct gsm_bts), which of course requires
the pointer to exist before being able to reference it.
Instead, store the actual configuration that the user entered as-is,
without pointers or references to objects that need to be ready. Resolve
the neighbors every time a neighbor is needed.
Hence the user may enter any config at any place in the config file,
even non-working config (like a BTS number that doesn't exist), and the
relation to actual local or remote neighbor cells is made at runtime.
Abort program startup if the initial neighbor configuration contains
errors.

So far the list of penalty timers was stored for an opaque target
pointer. That was either a gsm_bts pointer for a local BTS, or a cell
identifier list pointer for a remote-BSS cell.
Reasons to refactor penalty timers:
- The cell identifier list pointer came from the neighbor configuration
storage, but the way cell neighbor config is stored will change in a
subsequent patch. There will be no more cell identifier lists there.
- Storing object pointers is inherently unsafe -- if an object gets
removed and another gets allocated, the penalty timer could
theoretically remain in force for an unrelated object.
Rather store penalty timers for specific Cell IDs. Since remote-BSS
neighbors can be requested by a cell identifier *list*, use a
gsm0808_cell_id_list2 as key in the list of penalty timers.
Fix handover_test.c: have different CI for each local BTS. So far it was
the same LAC+CI for all BTSes, which now would make the test fail,
because any penalty timer would appear to apply to all local cells.

The existing code uses short-lived FSMs which are allocated straight
before START, and which are free'd after DONE state is reached.
While that works, it makes state introspection a bit hard, as one
cannot show the FSM states, etc.
Let's change to a different model where the per-OM2k-MO FSMs are
always around (in state INIT after object creation). While at it,
also introduce a RESET event that can reset each FSM instance back
to INIT state, i.e. in case of OML link failure.

This change introduces two optional function pointers:
- power_ctrl_enc_rsl_params() - this function will be called by the
A-bis/RSL code in order to encode MS/BS Power control parameters
for CHANnel ACTIVation and MS/BS POWER CONTROL messages.
- power_ctrl_send_def_params() - this function will be called for
each transceiver on A-bis/RSL link establishment in order to
send default MS/BS Power control parameters.

The only real 1-1 relationship between BTS NM objects is the one between
GPRS Cell and BTS (which is actually a BTS cell).
In our current osmo-bts implementation we don't care much since we only
handle 1-cell BTSses, but let's make the data structure organization
more generic.
Implementation notes:
The gsm_bts_sm is moved to its own file, APIs to allocate are added and
the new public object is hooked correctly in the allocation process of
osmo-bsc.

To be able to control the FACCH/SACCH repetition behavior inside the
BTS a one byte flag is sent to the BTS together with the
RSL_IE_OSMO_REP_ACCH_CAP IE. This patch adds the necessary VTY commands.
The sending of the flag is implemented in a follow-up patch.

A header file should only contain declarations, not entire definitions.
The fact that we have 'static const struct ...' definitions in a header
file means that very C file including this header file will get its own
private copy of the entire definition.
The header file should only include declarations, while the actual
non-static definitions should go to a *.c file. Let's fix this.
Also, take a chance to improve readability and apply more consistent
formatting (similar to 'struct hf_register_info[]' in Wireshark).

Older osmo-bts versions (before FSMs) tended to mimic broken behavior
from nanoBTS. As so, we detect it because SiteMGr becomes Enabled by
default as in nanoBTS, and hence we can manage them also by expecting no
Offline state and sending Opstart (and hence finally transitting to
Enabled) during Dependency state.

when an emergency call arrives while all TCH are busy, the BSC should
pick an arbitrary (preferably the longest lasting) call / lchan and
release it in favor of the incoming emergancy call.
The release of the existing call is a process that can not be done
synchronously while the ChanRQD is handled sonce multiple messages are
exchanged between BTS and MSC and multiple FSMs need to do their work.
To be able to release one lchan while handling a ChanRQD a queue is
implemented in which the incomming channel requests are collected. If
an emergency call is established while all channels are busy, an
arbitrary lchan is picked and freed. When freeing the lchan is done,
the queue is checked again and the emergency call is put on the free
lchan (TCH/H or TCH/F).

osmo-nitb supports the modification of an lchan if the lchan is
compatible but in the wrong mode. This feature was dropped in the
transition to AoIP/bsc-split. However, osmo-bsc still has code to
generate and parse the messeages, but the FSMs do not support a mode
modify yetm
Lets add handling for mode-modify to the lchan_fsm and assignment_fsm in
order to support mode modify again

So far, during inter-BSC outgoing handover, when receiving an RR Handover
Failure from the MS, it would be counted as 'error'. Instead, add the 'failed'
counter like for all other HO types.
It may make sense to omit the 'failed' counter for inter-BSC *incoming*
handover, because then we won't receive an RR Handover Failure message. I
probably got those two mixed up during initial development.

Our current handover counters only count success/failures per BSC. It
would be nice to also count which BTS is part of a (successful/failed)
handover.
This patch duplicates the BSC counters for the BTS and changes the
ho_count and related macros to also count per BTS. If a BTS is NULL
(when conn->lchan is NULL) counting for the BTS is ignored.

Place all code related to the object into the related file.
Having all the data model in one file made sense in early stage of
development to make progress quickly, but nowadays it hurts more than
helps, due to constantly growing size and more and more bits being
added to the model, gaining in complexity.
Currently, having lots of different objects mixed up in gsm_data.h is a hole
of despair, where nobody can make any sense were to properly put new stuff
in, ending up with functions related to same object in different files
or with wrong prefixes, declarations of non-existing functions, etc.
because people cannot make up their mind on strict relation to objects
in the data model.
Splitting them in files really helps finding code operating on a
specific object and helping with logically splitting in the future.
