abis_init() sets "g_bts = bts;", hence bts object is the same as g_bts
(since we only have 1 BTS object in osmo-bts). As a result, dropping
checking first bts->... and later g_bts->... makes no sense: the later
condition will always be false.

Similar to what is already provided for power control loops. However,
there's no existing way to communicate TA control parameters from the
BSC to the BTS, so implement them locally in BTS vty.

TS 45.008 section 4.7.1:
"""
Upon receipt of a command from an SACCH to change its power level on the corresponding uplink channel, the MS
shall change to the new level at a rate of one nominal 2 dB power control step every 60 ms (13 TDMA frames), i.e. a
range change of 15 steps should take about 900 ms. The change shall commence at the first TDMA frame belonging to
the next reporting period (as specified in subclause 8.4). The MS shall change the power one nominal 2 dB step at a
time, at a rate of one step every 60 ms following the initial change, irrespective of whether actual transmission takes
place or not.
"""
Since the reported MS_PWR in L1 SACCH Header is, according to specs, the
one used for the last block of the previous SACCH period, it becomes
clear the first SACCH block after a requested MS Power Level change by
the network may contain mismatches between the announced MS_PWR by the
MS and the measured Rxlev/RxQual. Hence, let's better use a
P_CON_INTERVAL of 1 which retriggers the MS Power Control Loop every second
SACCH block.

As per 3GPP TS 45.010 sec 5.6.3 Delay assessment error:
"""
the delay shall be assessed in such a way that the assessment error
(due to noise and interference) is less than 1/2 normal symbol periods
for stationary MS. For MS moving at a speed up to 500 km/h the additional
error shall be less than 1/4 normal symbol period.
"""
Hence, required TA loop calculation should take into account an error of
up to 1/2 + 1/4 = 75% of a symbol. By changing the threshold variable
to that percentage we make sure we take into account bigger deviations
and update TA accordingly.

From TS 45.010 5.6.1 (delay tracking for circuit switched channels):
"""
Restricting the change in timing advance to 1 symbol period at a time
gives the simplest implementation of the BTS. However the BTS may use
a larger change than this but great care must then be used in the BTS design.
"""
In general 1 TA at a time (every 480ms of SACCH block) should be enough,
since section 5.6.3 states:
"""
The control loop for the timing advance shall be implemented in such a way that it will cope with MSs moving at a
speed up to 500 km/h
"""
Which is ~140 m/s, and 1 TA step around 500m, so most of the time we
should be save and no steps of more than 1 TA should be required.
However, unlikely changes from reflected to direct signal or vice versa
could produce higher increments, so let's increase the maximum step size
allowed to 2 in order to give more room.

First step improving and reworking TA loop:
Move trigger of the loop to similar place done by BS/MS Power Control
Loop, that is, upon receivial of UL SACCH block, which contains
information about the TA used to transmit the block encode in L1SACCH
Header. Hence, from computed received TOA and TA used when transmitting
from the MS, we can infer the desired TA to be used by the MS, which
will send back to it later during DL SACCH block.
The values taken are actually the ones calculated for the previous SACCH
block and stored in lchan->meas.ms_toa256. That's because L1SACCH
contains the TA used for the previous reporting period, similarly to
what's specified for MS Power Control loop (TS 45.008 sec 4.2):
"""
The MS shall confirm the power control level that it is currently employing
in the SACCH L1 header on each uplink channel. The indicated value shall
be the power control level actually used by the mobile for the last burst
of the previous SACCH period.
"""
(The reader may observe that currently this is not properly done for MS
Power Control loop when calling lchan_ms_pwr_ctrl(): this is a bug.)
This new method also permits changing TA quicker, since we have more
confidence that the TA we request is aligned with the one used to
transmit, and we don't simply increment/decrement based on the value we
request to transmit.

During live testing, it has become apparent that some IMM ASS still fail

RxLevels
Before this comits, averaging and delta calculation was done in RSSI,
but stored the averaging cached state in variables named "rxlev", which
was really confusing. Let's keeping averaging and delta calculations
based on RxLevels.
Some of the tests change results due to test passing RSSI -45, which is
an invalid Rxlev (only up to -47 is supported).
Others fail due to an unrelated bug showing up now. Basically the averaging algo
is doing rounding the wrong way when downscaling the values. It will be
fixed in a follow-up commit.

lchan_ms_pwr_ctrl()
This commit reworks the code in function lchan_bs_pwr_ctrl()
and logging to look similar to that of lchan_ms_pwr_ctrl(), so that
reader can easily spot similarities between both and add simillar
features more easily.
This commit is also a preparation to add EWMA avg support for RxQual
measurements. Logging is also reworked now to look similar to that of MS
Power Control Loop, because having several parameters driving the algo
(RxLev and RxQual), it becomes more suitable to log all of them together instead
of intermediate info only aplicable to one param such as "delta".

This commit extends existing MS Power Control Loop algorithm to take
into account computed C/I values on the UL, received from MS. The
related C/I parameters used by the algorithm are configured at and
provided by the BSC, which transmits them to the BTS similar to already
existing parameters.
Using C/I instead of existing RxQual is preferred due to extended
granularity of C/I (bigger range than RxQual's 0-7).
Furthermore, existing literature (such as "GSM/EDGE: Evolution and Performance"
Table 10.3) provides detailed information about expected target values,
even different values for different channel types. Hence, it was decided
to support setting different MS Power Parameters for different channel
types.
These MS Power Parameters are Osmocom specific, ie. supported only by
newish versions of osmo-bts. Older versions of osmo-bts should ignore
the new IEs added just fine. The new IEs containing the MS POwer
Parameters are not send for non osmo-bts BTSs, hence this commit is
secure with regards to running osmo-bsc against an ip.access BTS such
as nanoBTS.

The AMR transmission phase directly depends on the frame number. The
transmission phase is used to tell if a received AMR frame contains a
CMI (frame type that is currently used) or CMR (frame type that the
receiver should use) codec identifier. The formulas in the present
implementation seem to be correct but they do not reflect the numbers in
the spec very well, nor do they have unit-tests. Lets replace them with
more readble functions and test those functions with unit-tests.

CMR and FT are updated each time an AMR voice frame is received from the
radio interface. The transmission phase decides whether the voice frame
contains CMR or FT. The code follows the transmission phase and keeps
ul_cmr and ul_ft up to date.
In contrast to the AMR frames on the radio interface, an AMR RTP packet
always contains the CMR and the FT value.
When generating the RTP payloed, The present implementation uses the CMR
in the position where the FT should be and the FT is ignored. This is not
correct.

When generating GSMTAP, we are already suppressing generation for
fill frames on PCH and AGCH. Let's expand that also to dedicated
channels SDCCH, TCH/F and TCH/H. The fill frames just clog up the
logs without providing much benefit.
SACCH is still being logged, as it contains SI or MEAS REP, so every
active channel still sees GSMTAP traffic every 480ms (SACCH interval).

If for whatever reason the transmit queue of a TCH/{F,H} contains
neither speech frames nor signalling blocks, osmo-bts-trx would
currently transmit garbage. Of course, this causes decoding
errors at the MS side.
Ideally, we should employ an ECU (Error Concealment Unit) for the
given codec in use. However, a simpler solution is to transmit
dummy LAPDm frames over FACCH. This is what e.g. nanoBTS does.

This is not as trivial as with OsmoBSC or OsmoMSC, because normally the
osmo-bts process exits right away when there is no BSC. Hence add
--vty-test option to main.
Use 'osmo-bts-virtual --vty-test' for testing. The other BTS models
require dependencies / configure switches to be built.
Essentially copied from osmo-bsc.git:
configure.ac: add --enable-external-tests
tests/Makefile.am: add 'vty-test' target
Add osmo-bts.vty, some trivial VTY node testing.
This prepares for adding VTY tests for T timer configuration added in a
subsequent patch.

When an Immediate Assignment comes in targeting an lchan that is not yet
active, then hold back the RR Immediate Assignment until the channel
becomes active.
This allows the BSC to send the Immediate Assignment before first
waiting for the Channel Activation ACK, saving one Abis roundtrip, and
helping avoid double allocation on high latency Abis links.

When the paging queue is filled up to a critical level, pagings from the

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, in the recent 3GPP TS 45.008 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.
The power reduction operation can be controlled by the BSC by
sending BS POWER CONTROL on the A-bis/RSL with the Channel Number
IE set to 0x80 (RSL_CHAN_BCCH). This makes osmo-bts reduce the
transmission power on inactive timeslots of the BCCH carrier.
This is a non-standard, Osmocom specific extension, so indicate
support of this feature to the BSC in the feature vector. Also
add a VTY command to allow enabling/disabling the power reduction
locally. Add some signalling notes to the A-bis/RSL manual.
For more details, see 3GPP TS 45.008, section 7.1.
