This is a workaround for a problem described in #706. In short, we
cannot reuse the cu_add/remove_f1_ue_data() functions if we are in an
integrated CU-UP/CP ("CU"), but then we can also not reliably use
different UE IDs in CU-UP and CU-CP (except if using even more hacks).
The DU UE capability printing depends on data on SCS and band, which
currently is only stored with the DU. To avoid any assert, we check
that the DU is present. A follow-up commit will rework this.
Before this commit, as visible in the handler of an F1 UE release, it
can happen that we forward the RRC Release message to a UE and start the
release timer, while also removing the F1 UE data (containing e.g., the
CU UE ID). This can lead to asserts, since there might still be
subsequent traffic for such UE during a short time, while the DU does
not have the secondary UE ID stored anymore.
This commit changes the logic. It introduces function
nr_mac_release_ue() that removes the UE at MAC and RLC, frees the F1 UE
data (if applicable), and sends the complete, after timing expiry. If
the UE is out of sync, this function is used to free the UE immediately.
This fixes#685 and #698.
- Set the correct QoS flow ID to associate a correct QoS flow to the
bearer: the UE would misassociate otherwise
- Set the DRB as the default: the handler applies bool with true==1, so
use bool value
Introduce a --no-itti-threads command line option to disable threading
in ITTI, and call message handlers in the current thread. This is being
introduced in order to increase repeatability when testing the nrUE with
the IQPlayer. Without this feature, runs with the IQPlayer will end up
differently, depending on the timing of ITTI threads, mostly when
sending messages to RRC and NAS.
Before this commit, the DMRS_UplinkConfig was stored in a separate
DMRS-related structure, although it is always referenced in the
PUSCHConfig of the current UL BWP.
Through certain code paths (e.g., retransmission), it could happen that
an old DMRS_UplinkConfig was accessed that was freed (through new
CellGroupConfig).
In this commit, we always look up the DMRS_UplinkConfig in the current
PUSCH config, which should always be up to date.
Until this commit, the SIB1's PDCCH_configCommon was set (via a pointer,
i.e., an indirection) to the one of the ServingCellConfigCommon (SCC).
Afterwards, the SIB1 code further populated this PDCCH configCommon,
indirectly populating the one of the the SCC, on which code later
depends.
Not only did this create possibilities for double-frees (since freeing
the memory of SIB1, then SCC would free the PDCCH configcommon twice),
but also it makes it harder to track where certain structures are
populated. Hence, this commit solves both issues:
- The SCC is correctly populated on initialization of the SCC
- The SIB1 makes a deep copy of the SCC' PDCCH configCommon
This resolves the two issues above.
