fix use-after-free in ipaccess_bts_keepalive_fsm_alloc()

In ipaccess_bts_keepalive_fsm_alloc() we allocate a keepalive FSM
instance as a child of the respective struct ipa_client_conn, and
store the pointer to the respective struct e1inp_ts.

  + struct e1inp_line
  |
  ---+ struct ipaccess_line (void *driver_data)
  |  |
  |  ---+ struct ipa_client_conn *ipa_cli[NUM_E1_TS]  // <-- parent
  |
  ---+ struct e1inp_ts ts[NUM_E1_TS]
  |  |
  |  ---+ .driver.ipaccess.ka_fsm  // <-- pointer

When an ipaccess connection (be it OML or RSL) goes down and then
up again, for instance if the BSC gets restarted, osmo-bts crashes.
The problem is that struct ipa_client_conn gets free()ed before the
associated FSM instance gets terminated:

* e1inp_ipa_bts_rsl_connect_n() is called
** calling e1inp_ipa_bts_rsl_close_n()
*** this function free()s struct ipa_client_conn
*** (!) as well as the struct osmo_fsm_inst (talloc child)
** calling ipaccess_bts_keepalive_fsm_alloc()
*** calling ipaccess_keepalive_fsm_cleanup()
**** accessing free()d e1i_ts->driver.ipaccess.ka_fsm
**** BOOOM!  segmentation fault

Fix this by calling ipaccess_keepalive_fsm_cleanup() before free()ing
the associated struct ipa_client_conn.

Note that ipaccess_bsc_keepalive_fsm_alloc() is not affected because
it's allocating keepalive FSMs using the global tall_ipa_ctx.

libosmo-abis - Osmocom Abis interface library

This repository contains a set of C-language libraries that form the A-bis interface library of Osmocom Open Source Mobile Communications projects such as OpenBSC / OsmoBSC.

Historically, a lot of this code was developed as part of the OpenBSC project, but which are of a more generic nature and thus useful to (at least) other programs that we develop in the sphere of Free Software / Open Source mobile communications.

The libosmo-abis.git repository build multiple libraries:

  • libosmoabis contains some abstraction layer over E1/T1 and IP based ETSI/3GPP A-bis interface. It can use mISDN and DAHDI as underlying driver/hardware.
  • libosmotrau contains routines related to A-bis TRAU frame handling

GIT Repository

You can clone from the official libosmo-abis.git repository using

git clone https://gitea.osmocom.org/osmocom/libosmo-abis

There is a web interface at https://gitea.osmocom.org/osmocom/libosmo-abis

Documentation

There is no Doxygen-generated API documentation yet for this library. It would be great to some day have it, comparable to libosmocore.
