The functions of the RAN API should not return the types of OAI, but protobuf
types. Previously, they would return OAI types and the calling code "marshals"
this into Protobuf type. This commit changes the following functions and
modifies the calling code to directly store the protobuf type:
* flexran_get_hopping_mode()
* flexran_get_phich_resource()
* flexran_get_phich_duration()
* flexran_get_ul_cyclic_prefix_length()
* flexran_get_dl_cyclic_prefix_length()
* flexran_get_duplex_mode() usage
* flexran_get_enable64QAM()
* Hello msg agent->RTC carries ID and capabilities this agent supports
* RAN API provides ID and capabilities:
- flexran_get_bs_id()
- flexran_get_capabilities() // protobuf list of capabilities
- flexran_get_capabilities() // capabilities as bit mask
Add FlexRAN capabilities mask RAN API function
Not much has been changed in the driver (that used libbladerf 1.0).
Some bugs have been fixed. Documentation has been added. A configuration
file has been added too, put in the directory ./configuration/bladeRF.
To use a bladeRF device, see documentation in targets/ARCH/BLADERF/README.
Only the BladeRF x40 has been tested.
Performance is not too bad at 5MHz, a bit worse at 10MHz and on the test
machine I used I face realtime problems at 20MHz when I push downlink
throughput.
So, there is still some work to do to have a good support of bladeRF.
-- in slave job, the lock is now properly done for the whole job
-- in master job, all slave jobs are really sent in parallel
they should now now appear as failed (if fails)
