Description

Encountered an issue regarding the SDCCH channel not being released immediately after a "Radio Link Failure" is detected in osmo-bsc and an equivalent error of "Sending Connection Failure: cause = 0x01" in osmo-bts-trx.

Error in osmo-bts-trx:
<0000> rsl.c:797 (bts=0,trx=0,ts=0,ss=0) Sending Connection Failure: cause = 0x01

Error in osmo-bsc:
<0003> abis_rsl.c:1372 (bts=0,trx=0,ts=0,ss=0) CONNECTION FAIL in state ACTIVE CAUSE=0x01(Radio Link Failure)

With this issue, the SDCCH channel will then be exhausted and no other subscriber can attach and do any services (call and SMS).

FYI: we do have a TTCN-3 test case sending RSL CONN_FAIL_IND with cause RSL_ERR_RADIO_LINK_FAIL and expecting Clear Request from the BSC.
