2016-02-08tbf: Add state WAIT_ASSIGNJacob Erlbeck1-2/+7
Currently the state on the TBF is set to ASSIGN when it is created and in general changed to FLOW when it is acknowledged by the MS. The moment when the assignment is really transmitted to the MS (which can take some time) is not reflected by the state. A TBF can considered to be valid, when the assignment is received by the MS. Add the state WAIT_ASSIGN that is entered when the assigment has been send to the MS (more precisely: when the corresponding RTS has been processed or the message has been sent to the BTS). The TBF, its PDCH(s), and its TFI can be assumed to be valid, when the TBF has a state of WAIT_ASSIGN or higher (assuming that the TBF starting time has not been set, which is currently only done for SBA, which are not associated with a TBF). Note that due to queuing in the BTS there can still be a invalid time period for immediate assignments, when the request is lingering in the AGCH or PCH queues. Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
2016-02-08tbf: Only free TBF if it was replaced in rcv_control_ackJacob Erlbeck1-2/+4
Currently the TBF whose PACCH has been used to send an assigment is freed if it is in state WAIT_RELEASE. Sometimes this TBF could be used for several assignments (e.g. an 'old' DL TBF is used to assign an UL and then a DL TBF). The second of these assigments will never be sent in that case. On the other hand, the MS replaces a TBF of the same direction, so the old one can be freed in that case. Only free the TBF if it is in state WAIT_RELEASE and has the same direction like the new one.

2016-02-08encoding: Redesign Encoding::write_immediate_assignment APIJacob Erlbeck1-11/+13
The EGPRS support will need more information to encode the IMMEDIATE ASSIGMENT. Instead of adding more parameters pass a pointer to the TBF unless an SBA shall be done (indicated by tbf == NULL). All values that can be derived from the TBF and are not needed for an SBA are removed from the parameter list. Return a negative value on error. Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
2016-02-08tbf: Don't change type from CCCH to PACCH without ackJacob Erlbeck1-1/+11
Currently the CCCH flag is cleared and the PACCH flag is set when a multislot upgrade is scheduled for a downlink TBF, even if the MS has never confirmed in any way that the PACCH really exists. This can happen if the MS did not receive the DL IMM.ASS. Since the CCCH flags gets cleared in that case, the IMM.ASSS is never retried and all subsequent PACKET DOWNLINK ASSIGNMENTS will fail. This commit delays the update of these flags until the MS has responded with a corresponding CONTROL ACK. Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
2016-02-08tbf: Add and use tbf->poll_tsJacob Erlbeck1-2/+2
Currently tbf->control_ts is used to look up an incoming poll response. Since that may eventually change, poll timeouts could theoretically happen in that case. Store the real poll TS in tbf->poll_ts at all places where tbf->poll_fn is set. Do not use tbf->control_ts to look up outstanding polls. Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
2016-02-08tbf: Do not reuse old TBF after RACH requestsJacob Erlbeck1-8/+4
Currently existing TBF can be reused after an MS has sent a RACH request. Since the MS can be or most probably is in packet idle mode in that case, the TBF are no longer usable even if they share the PDCHs and the control TS with the new one. There are occasional freezes where the MS does no longer react to messages sent on the PACCH. This change aborts all pending TBFs if a new TBF is or has been established via RACH.

2016-02-08Revert "tbf: Use the control TS for Immediate Assignments"Jacob Erlbeck1-2/+2
According to spec, the lowest numbered PDCH of the TBF shall be used for the PACCH, only when concurrent TBF are active, the lowest common PDCH shall be used. An immediate assigment is in general only sent, if no TBF is active, so the latter case never applies. This reverts commit fdd8a1ba2312be3f33576ee994c0b5da6272e815.

2016-02-08edge: Disable GPRS/EGPRS mixed modeJacob Erlbeck1-0/+1
Currently the plain 'egprs' command enables EGPRS but doesn't prevent phones from being served in GPRS mode if they do not support EGPRS. This involves complex frame allocation implementations in dynamic mode, especially if 8PSK is being used. This is due to the inability of non-EGPRS phone to decode 8PSK USF and ES/P altogether. Since polling has a higher priority than USF, collisions will have to be prevented by the PCU by never using an GPRS USF if it refers to a FN that is already being used for polling. This commit just disables mixed usage by ignoring GPRS-only request if EGPRS is enabled. The following VTY command (config-pcu node) is changed: egprs -> egprs only Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf

2016-02-08edge: Handle EGPRS PACKET DOWNLINK ACK NACKJacob Erlbeck1-0/+120
Currently this message is ignored. Support decoding and handling of this message. Use a bitvec for the decoder that just represents a BSN sequence without any encoding details (first bit -> first BSN). Return the corresponding BSN range (snsmod(bsn_begin + bits_in_bitvec) = bsn_end), so snsmod(bsn_end-1) is the last BSN if there is at least 1. If bsn_begin == bsn_end, no BSNs has been added. Note that this bitvec is not yet used for RBB handling. It just calls the old rcvd_dl_ack with a faked (all bits are 1) RBB map. Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
2016-02-05edge: Fix RLC message sizeJacob Erlbeck1-3/+3
Currently the RLC message length that is obtained from the DSP is reduced by 1 if the last byte of the buffer includes spare bits. While this worked well with GPRS, these bits are being used to encode RLC blocks in EGPRS mode. Thus this last byte must not be chopped off. The functionality of the code is not affected by this, since the modified length value is not used. This commit adds GprsCodingScheme::usedSizeDL/UL to return the number of bytes needed to encode the message block. If there are single bits at the end that are to be used (EGPRS), the functions return the number of full bytes plus 1 (which is the buffer size reported by the DSP and returned by sizeUL/sizeDL). The commit also removes the len parameter from rcv_data_block_acknowledged. Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf

Add addition, gprs_rlc_ul_header_egprs does not map directly to an encoded header, like many other 'header' structs do. Change the names to fit both modes and both directions: gprs_rlc_ul_header_egprs -> gprs_rlc_data_info gprs_rlc_ul_data_block_info -> gprs_rlc_data_block_info Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf

2016-02-01tbf: Replace static casts by calls to as_ul_tbf/as_dl_tbfJacob Erlbeck1-8/+6
Currently casts from gprs_rlcmac_tbf to gprs_rlcmac_ul_tbf and gprs_rlcmac_dl_tbf are done by using static_cast. This doesn't provide protection against converting a gprs_rlcmac_ul_tbf pointer to a gprs_rlcmac_dl_tbf pointer and vice versa. This commit provides two functions as_ul_tbf and as_dl_tbf, that behave similar like dynamic_cast but use the direction field instead of RTTI. Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf

ASAN has found improper deletion of objects. These only occur on shutdown but makes it impossible to run the test cases with full ASAN support. This commit fixes some of them and deactivates the freeing of the_pcu.bctx which may cause a corruption in BTS::~BTS() later on. Note that the latter is only a work-aound and should be fixed properly. It will leak bctx objects, but this is currently not critical, since gprs_bssgp_destroy is only called once, immediately before a call to exit(). Ticket: OW#1572 Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf

Currently GPRS is handled by the old code path while EGPRS already uses the unified functions. The rcv_block_egprs is basically not specific to EGPRS and just needs minor modifications to handle GPRS.

2015-12-15edge: Use GprsCodingScheme to adjust the UL RLC block sizeJacob Erlbeck1-22/+24

This commit moves the CS/MCS detection to the rcv_block message and passes the cs object via rcv_block_gprs, where the length gets adjusted, to gprs_rlcmac_pdch::rcv_data_block_acknowledged. There the switch statement is removed. Note that the TbfTest.err changes due to an additional log message. Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf

2015-09-01bts: Start a DL TBF if needed after establishment of an UL TBFJacob Erlbeck1-0/+6
Currently an existing DL TBF can get lost in the process of establishing an UL TBF via RACH. This can lead to stalled connections until the network sends more LLC frames. This commit adds a check for a non-empty LLC queue after the UL TBF has been established to rcv_control_ack (GPRS_RLCMAC_UL_ASS_WAIT_ACK path) to eventually establish a new DL TBF on the UL TBF's PACCH. Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
2015-09-01bts: Release DL TBF instead of killing in rcv_resource_requestJacob Erlbeck1-3/+9
Currently an existing DL TBF is freed immediately, when a resource request is received. This makes sense since the MS might have dropped it when switching to the PDCH signaled via the AGCH for the SBA. But if the TBF still is assumed to exist on the MS side, there might be TFI collisions if the old TBF object is not kept to block its TFI for some time. This commit changes rcv_resource_request to call release() instead of tbf_free() on the DL TBF object (if it exists). Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
2015-09-01Revert "tbf: Do not kill DL TBF on Packet Resource Request"Jacob Erlbeck1-5/+8
This reverts commit e91bd3babd5c04a154f296607b401a5050dcba31. That commit seems to cause hanging DL TBFs when there was a RACH based UL TBF establishment while it that TBF is active. This could be caused by the use of a different PDCH for the SBA. Conflicts: tests/tbf/TbfTest.cpp tests/tbf/TbfTest.err
2015-08-28l1: Use the FN of all data_ind/ra_ind DSP messagesJacob Erlbeck1-4/+2
Currently all of these messages are discarded if they are assumend to be caused by noise. But even in these cases, the FN and TN values which are added by the DSP are valid. So these can be used to update the current_frame value. The osmo-bts sets the fBFILevel of a physical channel to -200dB if it is used for PDTCH or PACCH which is the case for all PDCH. This way a data_ind or ra_ind message is already send at least once per block period (4 frames) per PDCH. These messages are passed to either handle_ph_data_ind or handle_ph_ra_ind even if they contain garbage data. The ra_ind messages are sometimes sent a few frames earlier than data_ind messages using the same frame. This commit adds calls to update the current_frame value based on all of these messages before they are discarded. The FN taken from ra_ind are passed with an increased max_delay (5) to compensate for early ra_ind messages. Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
2015-08-28poll: Count unexpected block FN valuesJacob Erlbeck1-1/+4
Currently a log entry is written if FN_data_ind - FN_time_ind <= -13. This commit adds a counter 'rlc.late-block' that is incremented in these cases. Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
2015-08-28poll: Use the data_ind FN as time source for current frameJacob Erlbeck1-0/+35
The FN of the data_ind taken from the DSP are monotonic, so latency does not affect the detection of poll timeouts if these FN are used. If the FN is larger than a poll_fn value, it can safely be assumed that the poll response will not arrive later on. Currently a max_delay of 60 frames is used, which has the drawback that additional ~250ms will pass until a lost ACK is detected. Using the data_ind's FN alone breaks the poll timeout detection if there are no other MS sending data blocks. This commit adds BTS::set_current_block_frame_number that is called with the FN taken from data_ind messages. The max_delay is set to 0 which removes the additional delay, when this FN is used to detect poll timeouts. So the average additional delay decreases with the number of data_ind per time. The current_frame is updated unless it seems to have been updated already (assumed if 0 < cur_fn - block_fn < 500). Thus the time_ind has still priority to update the current_frame value. Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
2015-08-28poll: Set the max_delay to 60 framesJacob Erlbeck1-2/+5
Currently the max_delay parameter is set to 13, since that is slightly above maximum number of frames that a time_ind can preceed a block's data_ind of the same frame. This assumes that these messages are not reordered after thay have been obtained from the DSP. In the current implementation, the GPRS data_ind can directly be taken from the DSP by the PCU while the time_ind messages are provided via the BTS. So the messages are queued differently in that case, resulting in a additional delay of the data_ind with respect to the time_ind. The propability for this raises with a increased CPU load of the PCU. If this happens, a poll timeout is detected by mistake and the poll is either retried or cleared. This commit increases the tolerance to 60 frames, since values for FN_data_ind - FN_time_ind of up to 50 frames have been observed under heavy PCU load. Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
2015-08-28poll: Add a max_delay parameter to PollController::expireTimedoutJacob Erlbeck1-1/+9

2015-08-21tbf: Do not kill DL TBF on Packet Resource RequestJacob Erlbeck1-8/+5
Currently all active TBF of an MS are killed if a Packet Resource Request is received from the MS. In general this happens after a RACH request. This does not happen after a resource request that has been included into a Downlink Ack/Nack. Sometimes an UL TBF is requested by an MS via RACH while a DL TBF is running for instance to send a TCP Ack. This can happen, if a former request via PACCH did not work. This commit removes the killing of the DL TBF from gprs_rlcmac_pdch::rcv_resource_request(). Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf

2015-07-16tbf: Put the TFI->TBF mapping into the PDCH objectsJacob Erlbeck1-52/+78
Currently the TBFs are registered in a TFI indexed array within the TRX objects. TBFs can be searched globally by TFI and TRX number. This conflicts with the use of the same TFI for different TBF on different PDCH. This use case requires the specification of the PDCH as additional search dimension. This commit moves the TFI index TBF arrays into the PDCH objects. The related methods are updated accordingly. Ticket: #1793 Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
