Encapsulate the asn1c call from cmake in a cmake function run_asn1c().
As a notable change to the previous manual add_custom_command()
invocation, in suppresses the output of asn1c by default [1] and stores
it in a log file. In case of asn1c4 error, the output will output on
stdout.
Use the new run_asn1c() in all occasions for code generation.
[1] it is quite verbose, with many warnings that we cannot influence nor
suppress, and lists all generated files which is verified by the build
system automatically, anyway.
A COTS UE is sending UE capabilities with accessStratumRelease "rel16"
which is not decoded by our RRC. Switching to RRC 16.13.0 lets our RRC
accept these capabilities (and as a positive side effect lets this
particular UE work nicely in NSA fr1).
CMake now takes the option ASN1C_EXEC to select an asn1c to use for
compilation. For instance, run with
cmake .. -GNinja -DASN1C_EXEC=/opt/asn1c/bin/asn1c
or
./build_oai --cmake-opt -DASN1C_EXEC=/opt/asn1c/bin/asn1c
to select the alternative asn1c. For instance, this is important for the
CI to allow to build multiple versions of OAI in parallel that might use
different commits of OAI.
Further, this patch introduces functionality to check for the support of
asn1c options that we require, and alerts the user if they are missing,
alongside a message of how to resolve the problem.
We don't work much on asn1c. The version we use has several bugs.
There is an active community out there that fixes bugs and improves
asn1c. Let's use their version.
