Add a char buffer of 1024 characters length as space for SDP to pass to /
receive from MNCC.
Actually support receiving MNCC without such an SDP tail. The main reason for
this is to avoid the need to adjust the ttcn3 implementation of MNCC: it would
stop working for older osmo-msc.
Older or non-SIP MNCC peers could operate the previous MNCC protocol unchanged
(save the protocol number bump) without having to implement SDP.
The SDP part in the MNCC protocol will be used in upcoming patch
I8c3b2de53ffae4ec3a66b9dabf308c290a2c999f.
This patch must be merged at the same time as osmo-sip-connector patch
Iaca9ed6611fc5ca8ca749bbbefc31f54bea5e925, so that both sides have a matching
MNCC protocol version number.

Rationale: in order to add full SDP to the MNCC protocol (upcoming patch
I8c3b2de53ffae4ec3a66b9dabf308c290a2c999f), we need to parse and compose SDP
messages. Obviously, libosmo-mgcp-client already contains similar code, but
that is unfortunately heavily glued to the actual MGCP implementation. The
simplest solution is to create this separate implementation, copy-pasting from
the existing libosmo-mgcp-client code as is convenient.
This API is added here to probe whether it works well. When it does, the
intention is to "move it up" to osmo-mgw and overhaul the SDP parsing in our
MGCP client and MGCP server APIs using this same API.

Fix vty tests that are failing since libosmocore change
Ic225232fbfca49ba868427eaf898e1f6e34e1ca8. If OsmoMSC is built without
IU support, it fails with "cs7-instance-iu" in the config.

Since OsmoMSC has built-in SMSC, it needs to store the messages
somewhere. Currently we use libdbi and SQLite3 back-end for that.
For a long time, the db_sms_* API remained uncovered by unit tests.
This change aims to fix that, and does cover the following calls:
- db_sms_store(),
- db_sms_get(),
- db_sms_get_next_unsent(),
- db_sms_mark_delivered(),
- db_sms_delete_sent_message_by_id(),
- db_sms_delete_by_msisdn(),
- db_sms_delete_oldest_expired_message().
Due to performance reasons, the test database is initialized in
RAM using the magic filename ':memory:'. This is a feature of
SQLite3 (and not libdbi), see:
https://www.sqlite.org/inmemorydb.html
Of course, this unit test helped to discover some problems:
1) Storing an SMS with empty TP-User-Data (TP-UDL=0) causes
buffer overruns in both db_sms_store() and db_sms_get().
2) TP-User-Data-Length is always being interpreted in octets,
regardless of DCS (Data Coding Scheme). This results in
storing garbage in the database if the default 7-bit
encoding is used. Fortunately, the 'user_data' buffer
in structure 'gsm_sms' is large emough, so we don't
experience buffer overruns.
3) db_sms_delete_oldest_expired_message() doesn't work
as expected. Instead of removing the *oldest* expired
message, it tries to remove the *newest* one.
The current test expectations do reflect these problems.
All of them will be fixed in the follow-up patches.

3GPP TS 49.008 '4.3 Roles of MSC-A, MSC-I and MSC-T' defines distinct roles:
- MSC-A is responsible for managing subscribers,
- MSC-I is the gateway to the RAN.
- MSC-T is a second transitory gateway to another RAN during Handover.
After inter-MSC Handover, the MSC-I is handled by a remote MSC instance, while
the original MSC-A retains the responsibility of subscriber management.
MSC-T exists in this patch but is not yet used, since Handover is only prepared
for, not yet implemented.
Facilitate Inter-MSC and inter-BSC Handover by the same internal split of MSC
roles.
Compared to inter-MSC Handover, mere inter-BSC has the obvious simplifications:
- all of MSC-A, MSC-I and MSC-T roles will be served by the same osmo-msc
instance,
- messages between MSC-A and MSC-{I,T} don't need to be routed via E-interface
(GSUP),
- no call routing between MSC-A and -I via MNCC necessary.
This is the largest code bomb I have submitted, ever. Out of principle, I
apologize to everyone trying to read this as a whole. Unfortunately, I see no
sense in trying to split this patch into smaller bits. It would be a huge
amount of work to introduce these changes in separate chunks, especially if
each should in turn be useful and pass all test suites. So, unfortunately, we
are stuck with this code bomb.
The following are some details and rationale for this rather huge refactoring:
* separate MSC subscriber management from ran_conn
struct ran_conn is reduced from the pivotal subscriber management entity it has
been so far to a mere storage for an SCCP connection ID and an MSC subscriber
reference.
The new pivotal subscriber management entity is struct msc_a -- struct msub
lists the msc_a, msc_i, msc_t roles, the vast majority of code paths however
use msc_a, since MSC-A is where all the interesting stuff happens.
Before handover, msc_i is an FSM implementation that encodes to the local
ran_conn. After inter-MSC Handover, msc_i is a compatible but different FSM
implementation that instead forwards via/from GSUP. Same goes for the msc_a
struct: if osmo-msc is the MSC-I "RAN proxy" for a remote MSC-A role, the
msc_a->fi is an FSM implementation that merely forwards via/from GSUP.
* New SCCP implementation for RAN access
To be able to forward BSSAP and RANAP messages via the GSUP interface, the
individual message layers need to be cleanly separated. The IuCS implementation
used until now (iu_client from libosmo-ranap) did not provide this level of
separation, and needed a complete rewrite. It was trivial to implement this in
such a way that both BSSAP and RANAP can be handled by the same SCCP code,
hence the new SCCP-RAN layer also replaces BSSAP handling.
sccp_ran.h: struct sccp_ran_inst provides an abstract handler for incoming RAN
connections. A set of callback functions provides implementation specific
details.
* RAN Abstraction (BSSAP vs. RANAP)
The common SCCP implementation did set the theme for the remaining refactoring:
make all other MSC code paths entirely RAN-implementation-agnostic.
ran_infra.c provides data structures that list RAN implementation specifics,
from logging to RAN de-/encoding to SCCP callbacks and timers. A ran_infra
pointer hence allows complete abstraction of RAN implementations:
- managing connected RAN peers (BSC, RNC) in ran_peer.c,
- classifying and de-/encoding RAN PDUs,
- recording connected LACs and cell IDs and sending out Paging requests to
matching RAN peers.
* RAN RESET now also for RANAP
ran_peer.c absorbs the reset_fsm from a_reset.c; in consequence, RANAP also
supports proper RESET semantics now. Hence osmo-hnbgw now also needs to provide
proper RESET handling, which it so far duly ignores. (TODO)
* RAN de-/encoding abstraction
The RAN abstraction mentioned above serves not only to separate RANAP and BSSAP
implementations transparently, but also to be able to optionally handle RAN on
distinct levels. Before Handover, all RAN messages are handled by the MSC-A
role. However, after an inter-MSC Handover, a standalone MSC-I will need to
decode RAN PDUs, at least in order to manage Assignment of RTP streams between
BSS/RNC and MNCC call forwarding.
ran_msg.h provides a common API with abstraction for:
- receiving events from RAN, i.e. passing RAN decode from the BSC/RNC and
MS/UE: struct ran_dec_msg represents RAN messages decoded from either BSSMAP
or RANAP;
- sending RAN events: ran_enc_msg is the counterpart to compose RAN messages
that should be encoded to either BSSMAP or RANAP and passed down to the
BSC/RNC and MS/UE.
The RAN-specific implementations are completely contained by ran_msg_a.c and
ran_msg_iu.c.
In particular, Assignment and Ciphering have so far been distinct code paths
for BSSAP and RANAP, with switch(via_ran){...} statements all over the place.
Using RAN_DEC_* and RAN_ENC_* abstractions, these are now completely unified.
Note that SGs does not qualify for RAN abstraction: the SGs interface always
remains with the MSC-A role, and SGs messages follow quite distinct semantics
from the fairly similar GERAN and UTRAN.
* MGW and RTP stream management
So far, managing MGW endpoints via MGCP was tightly glued in-between
GSM-04.08-CC on the one and MNCC on the other side. Prepare for switching RTP
streams between different RAN peers by moving to object-oriented
implementations: implement struct call_leg and struct rtp_stream with distinct
FSMs each. For MGW communication, use the osmo_mgcpc_ep API that has originated
from osmo-bsc and recently moved to libosmo-mgcp-client for this purpose.
Instead of implementing a sequence of events with code duplication for the RAN
and CN sides, the idea is to manage each RTP stream separately by firing and
receiving events as soon as codecs and RTP ports are negotiated, and letting
the individual FSMs take care of the MGW management "asynchronously". The
caller provides event IDs and an FSM instance that should be notified of RTP
stream setup progress. Hence it becomes possible to reconnect RTP streams from
one GSM-04.08-CC to another (inter-BSC Handover) or between CC and MNCC RTP
peers (inter-MSC Handover) without duplicating the MGCP code for each
transition.
The number of FSM implementations used for MGCP handling may seem a bit of an
overkill. But in fact, the number of perspectives on RTP forwarding are far
from trivial:
- an MGW endpoint is an entity with N connections, and MGCP "sessions" for
configuring them by talking to the MGW;
- an RTP stream is a remote peer connected to one of the endpoint's
connections, which is asynchronously notified of codec and RTP port choices;
- a call leg is the higher level view on either an MT or MO side of a voice
call, a combination of two RTP streams to forward between two remote peers.

* Use counts
Introduce using the new osmo_use_count API added to libosmocore for this
purpose. Each use token has a distinct name in the logging, which can be a
globally constant name or ad-hoc, like the local __func__ string constant. Use
in the new struct msc_a, as well as change vlr_subscr to the new osmo_use_count
API.
* FSM Timeouts
Introduce using the new osmo_tdef API, which provides a common VTY
implementation for all timer numbers, and FSM state transitions with the
correct timeout. Originated in osmo-bsc, recently moved to libosmocore.

It needs to work whether SMPP,Iu are enable or disabled, hence a bit more
wildcarding than one might expect.

Separate 'make python-test' into separate make targets, to sensibly add VTY
transcript tests in an upcoming commit.
Feature: even though ./configure was called without --enable-external-tests,
each of the {ctrl,vty}x{python,transcript} tests can be invoked individually by
e.g. 'make vty-python-test'.
Both 'vty-transcript-test' and 'ctrl-transcript-test' are still empty, a
subsequent patch adds a vty-transcript-test.
All of this in preparation of tweaking the 'mncc' vty configuration, to be able
to track it in a vty transcript test.

I'm going to make the external tests manually launchable. For that I first had
an error message if $(PYTHON) was empty. But Pau says I should just use shebang
instead and ignore the autoconf python stuff, since that often fails anyway.

Rewire build and includes to libosmo-legacy-mgcp.
Drop osmo-bsc_mgcp and related python tests, now found in osmo-mgw.git.
libosmo-legacy-mgcp is installed from osmo-mgw, hence add the dependency to
jenkins.sh (so far using the pre_release branch).

libvlr now delegates subscriber management to osmo-hlr, so the database no
longer represents a HLR. It basically only stores SMS, so reflect that fact in
the default database name.

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 trial-and-error development collapsed in one patch.
This may be split in smaller commits if reviewers prefer that. If we can keep
it as one, we have saved ourselves the additional separation work.
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.
Remove/Disable VTY and CTRL commands to create subscribers, which is now a task
of the OsmoHLR. Adjust the python tests accordingly.
Remove VTY cmd subscriber-keep-in-ram.
Use OSMO_GSUP_PORT = 4222 instead of 2222. See
I4222e21686c823985be8ff1f16b1182be8ad6175.
So far use the LAC from conn->bts, will be replaced by conn->lac in
Id3705236350d5f69e447046b0a764bbabc3d493c.

- bscs.config needed by the vty tests was not picked up as a dist file, because
its suffix is not 'cfg'. Rename to *.cfg. Apply this rename in
vty_test_runner.py and osmo-bsc_nat.cfg.
- Remove restart counters after external tests, otherwise distcheck complains
about uncleaned files.
- Add contrib/ipa.py to EXTRA_DIST, hence add a Makefile.am to contrib/.
Otherwise the python tests cannot find that dependency.

Use strdup to be able to use strtok on the category string and add
a test case. Also safe some more information to be able to use color
in the print statement.

One can use add_timer or schedule_timer to add a timer. After
the timeout time has been reached the callback will be called.
One can call add_time/schedule_timer and del_timer from within
the callback.
