Description

We're running Osmocom based network at the CCCamp 2019. I noticed the following errors happening quite often (~once per second):

Thu Aug 22 15:54:52 2019 DBSSAP ERROR libmsc/ran_msg_a.c:764 msc_a(IMSI-26242340300XXXX:MSISDN-XXXX:TMSI-0xA73E055A:GERAN-A-77923:LU)[0x5563947521e0]{MSC_A_ST_AUTH_CIPH}: RAN decode: BSSMAP: BSSMAP data truncated, discarding message

DVLR NOTICE SUBSCR(...) gratuitous ID RESPONSE?!? (vlr.c:1182)                               
DBSSAP ERROR msc_a(...)[0x5563947ace40]{MSC_A_ST_AUTHENTICATED}: RAN decode: BSSMAP: BSSMAP data truncated, discarding message (ran_msg_a.c:764)

I've got a pcap, but would rather not publish it.
I managed to get the "gratuitous" message reproduced in a C test, but not the "data truncated" part...

Still looking.

The "gratuitous ID RESPONSE" message comes up because no vlr_subscr->lu_fsm is present.
It happens for all non-LU Layer3-Complete that do ciphering: Paging response or CM Service Request.
So the error message is completely bogus on those cases.
