Created a function nr_error_ind_cb for the VNF that takes a received ERROR.indication and shows some details regarding the reported error from the PNF, since up until now it was not handled and treated as an unknown message.
Proper error handling procedure not created, only shows that the error occurred.
Adds the packing and unpacking functions needed for the PM Table in CONFIG.request
This table tag is specified in SCF222.10.06(0x104B), previous versions didn't have a tag for this table, and this version of the spec introduces the parameter `num_pm_idx`, previously not present.
A struct nfapi_nr_pm_tlv_ve_t is added to represent this TLV in order to be able to use the pack_nr_tlv function.
The necessary additions to the utility functions are done to account for this table.
The unitary test is changed to fill this table with randomized data to test transport and copy.
Adds the packing and unpacking functions needed for the DBT Table in CONFIG.request
This table tag is specified in SCF222.5.0 (0x1043) and this tag is used to transport the table, previous versions did not include a tag for the table.
A struct nfapi_nr_dbt_tlv_ve_t is added to represent this TLV in order to be able to use the pack_nr_tlv function.
The necessary additions to the utility functions are done to account for this table.
The unitary test is changed to fill this table with randomized data to test transport and copy.
Add the ability to pack/unpack 2 new TLVs for analog beamforming
total_num_beams_vendor_ext and analog_beam_list
Add the unpack related changes for the first 2 vendor extension TLVs introduced related to beamforming.
For the moment the packing is guarded by an Assert to ensure it is not used.
Add the necessary utility function changes to support these VE TLVs
Add the necessary changes to the corresponding unitary test for pack/unpack,
commented for the moment, since the packing is disabled with an Assert.
Repair nFAPI in 5G
Add 5G nFAPI in OAI/Make it it work.
Many commits in this branch are basically bug fixes of things that don't work
properly, such as
- check for correct conditions (e.g. instance numbers in the RAN context)
- remove artificial limitation (e.g. only one PUCCH per TDD period in the PNF)
- improve performance (reduce big mallocs, make some static buffers such as a
global ring buffer for nFAPI messages in the PNF)
- fix bugs in nFAPI (e.g., increase maximum message size to ~64kB instead of
1500 bytes, because the latter is way too small for many TX_data.requests in
5G, and it will delay message arrival unduly)
- fix bugs in message enc/dec (e.g., handle FDD in config.request)
- adjust the L1 such that the condition "we run monolithic" is not necessery
(e.g., some message numbers in nFAPI struct where reset in MAC, instead of
L1, and this breaks when running the PNF)
There are instructions that explain how to set it up. Two CI tests have been
added, one with COTS UE and MIMO in DL+UL in TDD numerology 1 (30kHz), and a
second test with FDD mu=0 (15kHZ) in RFsimulator.
These were some old to-dos that have been addressed.
- test with COTS UE - 4x4 pipeline works good in DL, UL now also work
- test in RFsim
- make PNF status message
- make FDD in u0 work
Add utility functions to print the FAPI messages contents
Add dump functions for DL_TTI.request PDUs, remaining message structures to be finished
Add file examples.md with some examples on how to use nfapi_hex_parser
Fix Assert condition to properly check that body was packed successfully
Fix retval value when performing bitwise AND with push16
Remove commented code
