* vty_app_info.is_config_node: add OSMO_DEPRECATEDNeels Hofmeyr2019-11-241-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | Although this OSMO_DEPRECATED doesn't seem to generate a warning when compiling code that sets .is_config_node = foo, it seems a good idea to add the deprecation tag. It is deprecated since commit "vty: track parent nodes also for telnet sessions" I2b32b4fe20732728db6e9cdac7e484d96ab86dc5 Change-Id: I800507b27cb0d536c1a4c203d7f7b90eec05a69c
* vty: track parent nodes also for telnet sessionsNeels Hofmeyr2019-11-241-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Keep track of parent nodes and go back hierarchically, not only for .cfg file reading, but also for telnet VTY sessions. A long time ago cfg file parsing was made strictly hierarchical: node exits go back to parent nodes exactly as they were entered. However, live telnet VTY sessions still lacked this and depended on the go_parent_cb(). From this commit on, implementing a go_parent_cb() is completely optional. The go_parent_cb() no longer has the task to determine the correct parent node, neither for cfg files (as already the case before this patch) nor for telnet VTY sessions (added by this patch). Instead, a go_parent_cb() implementation can merely take actions it requires on node exits, for example applying some config when leaving a specific node. The node value that is returned by the go_parent_cb() and the vty->node and vty->index values that might be set are completely ignored; instead the implicit parent node tracking determines the parent and node object. As a side effect, the is_config_node() callback is no longer needed, since the VTY now always implicitly knows when to exit back to the CONFIG_NODE. For example, osmo_ss7_is_config_node() could now be dropped, and the osmo_ss7_vty_go_parent() could be shortened by five switch cases, does no longer need to set vty->node nor vty->index and could thus be shortened to: int osmo_ss7_vty_go_parent(struct vty *vty) { struct osmo_ss7_asp *asp; struct osmo_xua_server *oxs; switch (vty->node) { case L_CS7_ASP_NODE: asp = vty->index; /* If no local addr was set */ if (!asp->cfg.local.host_cnt) { asp->cfg.local.host[0] = NULL; asp->cfg.local.host_cnt = 1; } osmo_ss7_asp_restart(asp); break; case L_CS7_XUA_NODE: oxs = vty->index; /* If no local addr was set, or erased after _create(): */ if (!oxs->cfg.local.host_cnt) osmo_ss7_xua_server_set_local_host(oxs, NULL); if (osmo_ss7_xua_server_bind(oxs) < 0) vty_out(vty, "%% Unable to bind xUA server to IP(s)%s", VTY_NEWLINE); break; } return 0; } Before parent tracking, every program was required to write a go_parent_cb() which has to return every node's parent node, basically a switch() statement that manually traces the way back out of child nodes. If the go_parent_cb() has errors, we may wildly jump around the node tree: a common error is to jump right out to the top config node with one exit, even though we were N levels deep. This kind of error has been eliminated for cfg files long ago, but still exists for telnet VTY sessions, which this patch fixes. This came up when I was adding multi-level config nodes to osmo-hlr to support Distributed GSM / remote MS lookup: the config file worked fine, while vty node tests failed to exit to the correct nodes.

* add vty_is_active()Neels Hofmeyr2019-05-031-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | For async callbacks it is useful to determine whether a given VTY pointer is still valid. For example, in osmo-msc, a silent call can be triggered by VTY, which causes a Paging. The paging_cb then writes to the VTY console that the silent call has succeeded. Unless the telnet vty session has already ended, in which case osmo-msc crashes; e.g. from an osmo_interact_vty.py command invocation. With this function, osmo-msc can ask whether the vty pointer passed to the paging callback is still active, and skip vty_out() if not. Change-Id: I42cf2af47283dd42c101faae0fac293c3a68d599
* vty api: add vty_out_va()Neels Hofmeyr2019-02-041-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | Provide a va_list type vty_out() variant, to be able to pass on variable arguments from other function signatures to vty_out(). This will be used by Ibd6b1ed7f1bd6e1f2e0fde53352055a4468f23e5 for osmo_tdef. Change-Id: Ie6e6f11a6b794f3cb686350c1ed678e4d5bbbb75
* vty: Make TCP port configurable and introduce telnet_init_defaultHolger Hans Peter Freyther2018-12-231-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Extend the vty_bind_cmd VTY command to allow to optionally specify a port in addition to the IPv4 address. Introduce telnet_init_default to relieve client code from having to query the bind IPv4 address (and now the TCP port). Instead a client only needs to pass the default TCP port to use. Client code should use it like: int rc = telnet_init_default(ctx, priv, OSMO_VTY_PORT_SGSN); Change-Id: Id5fb2faaf4311bd7284ee870526a6f87b7e260f3
* VTY: implicit node exit by de-indenting, not parent lookupNeels Hofmeyr2017-09-191-0/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Note: This will break users' config files if they do not use consistent indenting. (see below for a definition of "consistent".) When reading VTY commands from a file, use indenting as means to implicitly exit child nodes. Do not look for commands in the parent node implicitly. The VTY so far implies 'exit' commands if a VTY line cannot be parsed on the current node, but succeeds on the parent node. That is the mechanism by which our VTY config files do not need 'exit' at the end of each child node. We've hit problems with this in the following scenarios, which will show improved user experience after this patch: *) When both a parent and its child node have commands with identical names: cs7 instace 0 point-code 1.2.3 sccp-address osmo-msc point-code 0.0.1 If I put the parent's command below the child, it is still interpreted in the context of the child node: cs7 instace 0 sccp-address osmo-msc point-code 0.0.1 point-code 1.2.3 Though the indenting lets me assume I am setting the cs7 instance's global PC to 1.2.3, I'm actually overwriting osmo-msc's PC with 1.2.3 and discarding the 0.0.1. *) When a software change moves a VTY command from a child to a parent. Say 'timezone' moved from 'bts' to 'network' level: network timezone 1 2 Say a user still has an old config file with 'timezone' on the child level: network bts 0 timezone 1 2 trx 0 The user would expect an error message that 'timezone' is invalid on the 'bts' level. Instead, the VTY finds the parent node's 'timezone', steps out of 'bts' to the 'network' level, and instead says that the 'trx' command does not exist. Format: Consistent means that two adjacent indenting lines have the exact same indenting characters for the common length: Weird mix if you ask me, but correct and consistent: ROOT <space>PARENT <space><tab><space>CHILD <space><tab><space><tab><tab>GRANDCHILD <space><tab><space><tab><tab>GRANDCHILD2 <space>SIBLING Inconsistent: ROOT <space>PARENT <tab><space>CHILD <space><space><tab>GRANDCHILD <space><tab><tab>GRANDCHILD2 <tab>SIBLING Also, when going back to a parent level, the exact same indenting must be used as before in that node: Incorrect: ROOT <tab>PARENT <tab><tab><tab>CHILD <tab><tab>SIBLING As not really intended side effect, it is also permitted to indent the entire file starting from the root level. We could guard against it but there's no harm: Correct and consistent: <tab>ROOT <tab><tab>PARENT <tab><tab><tab><tab>CHILD <tab><tab>SIBLING Implementation: Track parent nodes state: whenever a command enters a child node, push a parent node onto an llist to remember the exact indentation characters used for that level. As soon as the first line on a child node is parsed, remember this new indentation (which must have a longer strlen() than its parent level) to apply to all remaining child siblings and grandchildren. If the amount of spaces that indent a following VTY command are less than this expected indentation, call vty_go_parent() until it matches up. At any level, if the common length of indentation characters mismatch, abort parsing in error. Transitions to child node are spread across VTY implementations and are hard to change. But transitions to the parent node are all handled by vty_go_parent(). By popping a parent from the list of parents in vty_go_parent(), we can also detect that a command has changed the node without changing the parent, hence it must have stepped into a child node, and we can push a parent frame. The behavior on the interactive telnet VTY remains unchanged. Change-Id: I24cbb3f6de111f2d31110c3c484c066f1153aac9
* doxygen: unify use of \file across the boardNeels Hofmeyr2017-06-231-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Considering the various styles and implications found in the sources, edit scores of files to follow the same API doc guidelines around the doxygen grouping and the \file tag. Many files now show a short description in the generated API doc that was so far only available as C comment. The guidelines and reasoning behind it is documented at https://osmocom.org/projects/cellular-infrastructure/wiki/Guidelines_for_API_documentation In some instances, remove file comments and add to the corresponding group instead, to be shared among several files (e.g. bitvec).

* doxygen: enable AUTOBRIEF, drop \briefNeels Hofmeyr2017-06-231-34/+34
| | | | | | | | | | Especially for short descriptions, it is annoying to have to type \brief for every single API doc. Drop all \brief and enable the AUTOBRIEF feature of doxygen, which always takes the first sentence of an API doc as the brief description. Change-Id: I11a8a821b065a128108641a2a63fb5a2b1916e87
* vty: add bind command for telnet vty lineNeels Hofmeyr2016-02-251-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add VTY command line vty bind A.B.C.D The command merely stores the configured IP-address, which can then be used by the calling main program to set the telnet port of the VTY line. (Commits in openbsc and osmo-iuh will follow up on this.) Add function vty_get_bind_addr() to publish the address in the vty.h API. Add static vty_bind_addr to store. For allocation/freeing reasons, a NULL address defaults to 127.0.0.1. BTW, I decided against allowing keywords 'any' and 'localhost' in place of an actual IP address to make sure a written config is always identical to the parsed config.
* vty: Change API to have node installation be done by intHolger Hans Peter Freyther2015-08-051-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We are mixing enums and hope that no short-enums are used. This is leading to a lot compiler warnings generated by clang. Change the API to work with integers. Porting: The go_parent_cb implementations in the applications need to be fixed. The API change leads to a compile time warning. Fixes: abis_om2000_vty.c:46:2: warning: implicit conversion from enumeration type 'enum bsc_vty_node' to different enumeration type 'enum node_type' [-Wenum-conversion] OM2K_NODE, ^~~~~~~~~
* vty: Check with the application before writing the configHolger Hans Peter Freyther2014-12-041-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | For the BSC/NITB application we see that people modify the band without modifying the ARFCN. This creates an unbootable config. Using the new hook the BSC/NITB can check if the config is consistent and prevent the config file being written. Related: SYS#739

* vty: Make vty_event dispatch signals and use it in the testcaseHolger Hans Peter Freyther2013-10-101-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | The testcase didn't work on Ubuntu 12.04 because vty_create will directly call vty_event (e.g. not through the plt). This means that the approach to override vty_event in the testcase failed. Use the signal interface of libosmocore and make the testcase use it. The signals can be generally useful as well.
