In an Inter-RAT setup a UE could perform a TAU coming from a 2G/3G network.
In that case the UE/MS is unknown to the MME and it should request the
SGSN context (MM, PDP) from the old SGSN. This is done through the following
GTPv1C message exchange on the Gn interface of SGSN and MME:
SGSN <- MME: SGSN Context Request
SGSN -> MME: SGSN Context Response
SGSN <- MME: SGSN Context Acknowledge
Diagram with full set of steps can be found at 3GPP TS 23.401 D.3.6.
This commit doesn't aim to be a complete implementation of the mentioned
procedure, since it's quite a complex one, with lots of fields and logic
required. This so far only implements in general the minimally
successful case by filling as much as possible the required set of
fields.
This will allow for a base onto which do incremental improvements and
fixes while testing against UEs and SGSNs (such as osmo-sgsn, which
doesn't yet support this procedure but will potentially earn it soon).
The reverse direction, aka UE issuing cell reselection 4G->2G was
already implemented (same as here, initial non-complete implementation)
in open5gs-mmed in commit 3d693da73e.

- Added diameter dictionary definitions for Cancel Location
- Cancel Location will completely remove UE from MME, allow for a fresh IMSI attach to occur on next attempt.
- T3422 is used for detach request.
- Added new handling for s6a events in mme-sm, as not all s6a messages are at attach now. Maybe there's something in a state machine I should've been using here instead of a new flag?
- Testing was completed with UE in idle and connected. With CLR flags indicating re-attach required and without. Also sending CLR after UE detach. And then sending again when mme_ue is empty.
When a UE that requests slices tries to connect and there are no slices configured, the reject message is:
5GMM cause = 0x7 (5GS Services not allowed)
however it should be:
5GMM cause = 0x3e (No network slices available)
All 5GMM cause value in reject message is reviewed in this commit
This commit adds EMM Cause to Attach accept message when
Attach Request has COMBINED EPS IMSI ATTACH but the HSS
Network-Access-Mode is configure for EPS ONLY.
The network access mode of HSS has been changed to 0 (Packet and Circuit).
Versions of MME prior to v2.4.2 did not use this value. Open5GS set
the attach result of Attach Complete message as it is by looking
at the attach type of the Attach Request message.
Now, if the network access mode of HSS is set to 2 (Only Packet),
this value is affected by MME from v2.4.3. Regardless of the attach type
of the Attach Request, the MME will set EPS Only to the attach result
of Attach Complete.
The AMF shall assign a new 5G-GUTI for a particular UE:
a) during a successful initial registration procedure;
b) during a successful registration procedure
for mobility registration update; and
c) after a successful service request procedure invoked as a response
to a paging request from the network and before the release
of the N1 NAS signalling connection as specified in subclause 5.4.4.1.
The AMF should assign a new 5G-GUTI for a particular UE
during a successful registration procedure
for periodic registration update. The AMF may assign a new 5G-GUTI
at any time for a particular UE by performing
the generic UE configuration update procedure.
If both Delete-Session-Request/Response and
UEContextReleaseCommand/UEContextReleaseComplete are failed at the same time,
UE cannot attach to the EPC infinitely.
So, I've add the protection code
if timer expires when MME does not receive Delete-Session-Response.
