Changing the BTS type is not supported, so don't allow it.
For example, Changing from type sysmobts to type rbs2000
may hit an OSMO_ASSERT in om2k_bts_fsm_alloc()
The default BTS type if osmo-bsc is started with an empty
configuration and the operator issues config terminal->network->bts 0
will be "unknown". This type and only this type can be
changed from the vty config node.

Many years prior to the implementation of osmo-cbc, we introduced
a way how raw RSL SMSCB COMMANMD can be injected from the VTY.
These days, people should use the CBSP interface with osmo-cbc or any
other CBC. We should not advertise the VTY command hack
as a standard feature anymore.

So far osmo-bsc would enable Uplink DPC (Dynamic Power Control) only
for osmo-bts, and the 'static' mode for all other BTS models. This
decision dates back to the time when ip.access specific encoding for
dynamic power control parameters was not implemented, and the MS
Power Parameters IE was sent empty in the RSL messages.
Let's make a step forward by enabling Uplink DPC by default for
all BTS models which declare the API for vendor-specific encoding
of the power control parameters. Currently this includes osmo-bts
and nanoBTS, both supporting ip.access specific format.

On lchan activation, we already know the Timing Advance in most
situations: from the Channel Request RACH, or from a previous lchan in
the same cell. Place this information in lchan->activate.info.ta.
So far, the lchan->last_ta (until recently called rqd_ta) was used to
store the initial TA for channel activation -- move the initial TA to
lchan->activate.info.ta, for proper scoping.
Only an inter-cell handover does not yet know a Timing Advance (until
the Handover Detection RACH is received), so indicate
activate.info.ta_known = false for that case.
If ta_known is false, do not include an Access Delay IE in the Channel
Activation message, ensuring that the BTS does not use an arbitrary TA
that is likely inaccurate.
The effect for OsmoBTS is that we will *not* start the downlink SACCH on
channel activation for inter-cell handover, but will wait for a HO RACH
first, and then use the correct TA when enabling downlink SACCH.

Originally, the lchan stored only the Timing Advance from the initial
channel request, hence it was called rqd_ta.
Since quite a while now, rqd_ta also stores the most recent Timing
Advance from each received Measurement Report. So rename to last_ta.
This is cosmetic preparation for an upcoming patch that clarifies
whether the Timing Advance is already known for Channel Activation.

We cannot simply use the highest 'x' in A5/x codecs.
For A5/7 through A5/3, larger 'x' means better.
But: A5/1 is better than A5/2, so we need to prefer the former

If an emergency call arrives at the BSC while all TCH are busy, one TCH
is cleared in favor of the emergency call. However, if emergency calls
are disabled (system information), it is still possible that an MS might
try an emergency call anyway or that due to interference a regular call
might look like an emergency call (channel request reason). In those
cases the preemption must not happen and the emergency call must be
rejected.

Add bool log argument to lchan_avail_by_type() and omit logging when
passed as false. From handover_decision_2.c, pass 'log' as false, from
all other callers pass true, i.e. for unchanged behavior.
Rationale:
Usually, we use lchan_avail_by_type() to select a new lchan to initiate
actual service. For that, it is interesting to see how osmo-bsc decides
which lchan will be used.
For handover decision 2, we since recently call lchan_avail_by_type()
for each and every handover candidate, to determine whether it will
occupy a dynamic timeslot or not (to know whether we would congest the
other TCH kind). So this happens for each permutation of source lchan
and target cell. That produces a lot of logging, out of proportion of
being useful to the maintainer.

For handover algorithm 2, properly figure out what effects the target
cell will see for the *other* TCH kind when a handover would occupy a
dynamic timeslot.
Before this, only TCH/F or TCH/H would be regarded at a time. This
introduces detection of whether a dynamic timeslot would be occupied by
a handover, and how losing one unused dynamic timeslot affects the
congestion situation for the TCH kind that is not targeted by the
handover.
In other words, if a handover to TCH/F causes congestion in TCH/H
because of a dynamic timeslot becoming occupied, the handover will not
be performed. Before this, oscillation situations could occur.
A subsequent patch will do the same for congestion balancing.

The following message makes no sense:

because nothing really changed, MS Power class remains 4. Neither

Allocating a new list of supported codecs *before* checking the
command arguments is a bad idea. The operator may simply mistype
one of the codecs and will end up with a list of NULL pointers.
The functions calling audio_support_to_gsm88() assume that this
list always does contain valid pointers, so if a new subscriber
connection gets established, or the operator simply invokes
'show running-config', osmo-bsc would crash due to NULL pointer
dereference.
Steps to reproduce:
1. In the VTY, do: 'en' -> 'configure terminal' -> 'msc';
2. Configure any invalid codec list, e.g. 'codec-list Boom!';
3. Invoke 'show running-config', boom!
Let's check the input before changing the internal structures.

My assumption that lchan_reset() is called on CHANnel ACTIVation
was wrong - it's actually called on CHANnel RELease. Therefore
(re)setting per-lchan BS power value must be done in the other
function that is responsible for channel activation.

config_write_bts_gprs() currently writes the remote address of an
NSVC even if osmo_sockaddr_str_from_sockaddr() returns non-zero
code. Thus saving a configuration with only one configured NSVC
to a file would produce the following:
bts N
...
gprs nsvc 0 nsvci 101
gprs nsvc 0 local udp port 23023
gprs nsvc 0 remote ip 127.0.0.1
gprs nsvc 0 remote udp port 23000
gprs nsvc 1 nsvci 0
gprs nsvc 1 local udp port 0
gprs nsvc 1 remote ip
and next time osmo-bsc would refuse to start due to:
Error occurred during reading the below line:
gprs nsvc 1 remote ip
The related condition consists of the following two parts:
- checking if osmo_sockaddr_str_from_sockaddr() != 0;
- checking if 'remote.af != AF_UNSPEC'.
The first one is wrong, because osmo_sockaddr_str_from_sockaddr(),
like many other functions, returns 0 on success. Let's fix this.
After the fix, the second part does not seem to make sense, because
remote.af would remain AF_UNSPEC (0) if the function call succeeds.
Printing the remote port alone does not make sense, let's avoid
printing it if the address cannot be parsed into a string.

For balancing load across congested cells and across congested TCH/*
kinds, instead of comparing the number of lchans above the configured
congestion threshold, compare the percent of lchans of overload.
In short, using a percentage prevents cells with less min-free-slots to
fill up 100% while neighbor cells still may have several free lchans
available.
An obvious example of why this is desirable is illustrated by
test_balance_congestion_by_percentage.ho_vty:
Cell A has min-free-slots 2, and has all slots occupied.
Cell B has min-free-slots 4, and has 2 slots remaining free.
If we count congested lchans as in current master: cell A has a
congestion count of 2: two more lchans in use than "allowed". If we move
one lchan over to cell B, it ends up with a congestion count of 3, which
is worse than 2. So when counting lchans, we decide that cell A should
remain full.
Instead, when comparing percentage of remaining lchans, we would see
that cell A is loaded 100% above congestion (2 of 2 remaining lchans in
use), but when moving one lchan to cell B, that would only be 75% loaded
above its treshold (3 of 4 remaining lchans in use). So a percentage
comparison would cause a handover to cell B.

This new CTRL interface allows users of this BSC (such as attached PCU)
to gather neighbor information.
This interface is needed for PCU to translate ARFCN+BSIC keys provided
by MS in the Um side into CGI + RAC keys used to identify target cells
in RIM procedures against SGSNs on the Gb interface.
This patch extends the already existing neighbor information storage in
the VTY by allowing storage of CGI + RAC (RAC couldn't be stored
beforehand).

When evenly distributing congestion across cells, count the number of
occupied lchans surpassing congestion, and not the overall number of
free lchans -- which disregards congestion thresholds.
Fix the bugs shown by
test_congestion_no_oscillation.ho_vty
test_balance_congestion_tchf_tchh.ho_vty
This implements a simple calculation for congestion load by counting
lchans in use above congestion. An improvement of this calculation
using percent follows in I55234c6c99eb02ceee52be0d7388bea14304930f.

Fix flaws in picking a candidate for congestion resolution, shown in
recently added tests.
- For TCH/H->TCH/F upgrading, do not favor moving to a weaker neighbor
cell.
- When comparing dynamic timeslots on the same cell, favor a dynamic
timeslot that frees an entire dyn TS even though the target rxlev
differs.
Do not separate the passes for inter-cell and intra-cell candidates:
before, the inter-cell pass would already pick a candidate and start
handover, even though the subsequent intra-cell pass would have revealed
a better candidate. Join the intra-cell considerations into
pick_better_lchan_to_move().
The intra-cell pass was separate, because it would find the *weakest*
current rxlev, to give a TCH/H to TCH/F upgrade to the currently weakest
lchan.
Instead of the separate pass for weakest rxlev, in addition to the
target cell's rxlev, also consider the rxlev *change* in
pick_better_lchan_to_move(): For candidates that do not change the rxlev
(usually those that stay in the same cell) and that upgrade to TCH/F,
favor a candidate with weaker current rxlev.
Completely revisit the conditions in pick_better_lchan_to_move() to
yield the desired prioritization of candidate preferences.
In three handover tests, remove the "FAIL" comments and adjust to now
expect the actually desired behavior.
