The primary motivation here is to remove a VLA, as in the parent
commits. Closer inspection revealed that (1) it is only used by the LTE
UE, and (2) it only logs some data which we likely don't need. So I
simply removed this function.
Upon failure, the error message was saying that something failed (i.e.,
the reason), but not parameters of the getaddrinfo(). Simplify root
cause analysis by providing the parameters for the attempted
getaddrinfo() call.
This function is needed also in upcoming NGAP
libraries (i.e. N2 Handover) and therefore is moved
to the NGAP utilities file. The function converts
transport_layer_addr_t data struct to BIT_STRING_t
by copying the content of its members. The naming
is also updated to tnl_to_bitstring.
* Functions added:
decode_ngap_guami
decode_ngap_UEAggregateMaximumBitRate
decode_ngap_nssai
decode_ngap_security_capabilities
decode_ngap_mobility_restriction
* Adopt these functions in the common NGAP library
- remove hardcoded values
- adapt gNB RRC code
- adapt gNB MAC code
- adapt physical simulators, where we put the hardcoded values
that were everywhere else before; if there is a need for those
simulators to get configurable values, more work is needed
(but it's doubtful that it is needed)
To be used in a later commit to retrieve NR PDCP configuration
parameters.
To use, add the following to the configuration file (outside of other
configurations). Adapt the values to your setup. The names ("len18bits",
"ms100", etc.) come from 3GPP TS 38.331.
pdcp = {
drb = {
sn_size = "len18bits"
t_reordering = "ms100"
discard_timer = "infinity"
}
}
Default values are applied if the configuration is absent.
The default values are the ones given above.

Fix data race in NR UE MSG3 scheduling
Fixed a data race between DL processing of RAR and UL scheduler, which might
result in dropping MSG3.
It was possible that the UL scheduler for the UL slot which RAR indicates as
MSG3 slot was already run by the time the RAR was decoded.
Therefore when DCI for RAR is decoded, assume worst case and halt UL scheduler
for next slot until RAR is decoded solving the data race. This also in turn
halts all later scheduling due to sequential nature of the UL scheduler calls.
Closes#962
imscope updates
- Add CSV export button to imscope
- Add extra cache for IQ data in imscope record thread so that UE time domain
data can be kept until PDSCH is decoded.
- Add metadata to UE time domain samples scope
- Add UE pdsch pre-compensation IQ and PDSCH channel estimates
Move RRC radio parameters file to DU
A number of radio-related RRC parameters, e.g., CellGroupConfig, "originate" at
the DU and are sent to the CU for forwarding to the UE only. Similarly, there
are additional parameters, e.g., RLC-BearerConfig (part of CellGroupConfig),
that originate at the DU.
Hence, the DU decides about these parameters, depending on the MAC state and
capabilities. To clarify this, move the existing
openair2/RRC/NR/nr_rrc_config.{c,h} => openair2/LAYER2/NR_MAC_gNB/nr_radio_config.{c,h}
So that developers know that while those are RRC parameters, they originate at
the DU.
In other words, the CU/RRC is not supposed to use any of these functions in
the RRC. Correspondingly, includes of this file have been cleaned up (and when
they are not necessary at the MAC as well)
Instead of running xApps from oai-flexric container,
create dedicated xApp containers.
In addition, modify the flexric.conf: DB_PATH doesn't exist;
DB_DIR is the correct name.
- prerequisites - use the links to FlexRIC tutorial
- build FlexRIC - use the build tutorial from FlexRIC tutorial
- explain in more details the supported service model functionalities
- explanation if no RIC INDICATION is being sent
- use multi-UE rfsim tutorial from doc/, not oai-workshops repository

Following a power cycle of the CI machines in the NSA-B200 setup, the gNB
machine encountered a networking issue. Although packets were observed leaving
and returning to the host of gNB, they failed to reach the container.
Debugging steps taken:
- upgraded the gNB machine
- reinstalled Docker
- reviewed and verified IP rules and routing settings
Setting the container to use host network mode resolved the issue.
