set_latency_target() attempts to set keep "low latency" by
- writing a specific latency to /dev/cpu_dma_latency
- setting manually the minimum CPU processor frequency to be the maximum
There is no functionality to undo this after stopping the softmodem(s),
and most users are probably not even aware that OAI does this. It is
generally preferable to set this beforehand using a governor or by
disabling sleep states (as outlined in the tutorial, and in a follow-up
commit in the performance tuning docs).
The previous mlockall() call, to lock memory to RAM, is retained in a
new function. There were additional mlockall() calls, which have been
replaced with lock_memory_to_ram(), where necessary.
There is already a command line option called 'ue-scan-carrier' which
seemed to blindly look for SSB by changing the center frequency by
+/-100Hz if the previous attempt failed. This is probably copied from
LTE and is not suitable for NR. This commit uses this option to either
1. Perform initial sync on one GSCN if the SSB position if known
2. Or scan the all GSCN (if the SSB postion is unknown)
Also, the following is done for re-synchronization
1. Scan all GSCN when UE comes back from IDLE state
2. Scan one GSCN when UE does re-estabishment
Removed dependency of lte-softmodem.h in nr-softmodem.c.
CONFIG_HLP_UESCAN is declared also in lte-softmodem.h.
The absslot_tx overflow issue observed during integration testing of AW2S
RU with GPS as the source for the clock synchronization. Causes the gNB
not to start the TX thread and stops the processing.
Add an API to allow out-of-order writes to a radio interface, unlike the
current interface.
this function is called in UE in this commit, even if the tx might
still be in order.
Later, i plan to improve UE pulti-threading, that will lead to out of
order tx. also, the gNB will benefit of this new function to replace
several specific pieces of code that reorder tx with over complex and
slow systems
They use 4G NUMBER_OF_UE_MAX, which is not supposed to be present in 5G.
Further, the mutex and variable are global state; for Paging, we should
use F1.
Doing only 5 LDPC iterations by default leads to a poor reception
performance, and correspondingly many retransmissions. Increase to 8 as
the new default to improve user experience.
- deleted: ../../../executables/rfsim.c
- removed unused command line options to set SINR and SNR
- removed unused functions to get SINR and SNR
- removed unused RFSIM struct members
