Once the LTE UE's tunnel interface with the EPC
is ready to be established, if we are in NSA mode,
we do not want to launch the tunnel interface
from the LTE UE side, but in the NR UE. Via itti_msgs
we send the string containing the tunnel interface
'up' command to the NR UE and bring it up from the NR UE.
This commit includes several changes.
First, it updates the way we fill the uplink
UCI indication. This still has some todo comments
since all the fields in this ind were hardcoded.
It also updates the pack and unpack functions for
the NR_UCI incations. Lastly, it includes updates
to the gNB UCI scheduler. The updates in the gNB
were cherry picked from develop. There are two updates
to the VNF which allow the VNF timing/slots to be
adjusted based on the received timing_info packets
from the VNF. This adjustment was disabled in IISc's
nFAPI code. For now, it is improving the timing
between the VNF and PNF.
Although the timing isnt perfect, if the VNF adjusts
in the middle of scheduling a DCI the gNB would try to
send two DCIs for a certain sfn/slot; this commit will
stop that from happening. The timing issue still persits.
Most notably, nfapi_rx_indication_pdu_t.data type is changed from
`uint8_t*` to `uint8_t[]`. Also, renamed from `data` to
`rx_ind_data` to make it easier to find.
It also includes the queuing development. The idea
is that the 5G Userplane messages will be filled
and configured the same as previous commit, but
the uplink messages will be queued and then sent to
the gNB during the correct slot. Still WIP.
This commit contains the changes to the OAI code in
the NR UE and in nFAPI.
- Filling crc_ind for msg3
- Updating pack/unpack of CRC_ind
- Creating phy abstraction CRC_ind handling in VNF
- Removal of old comments
- Only sending on RACH in phy_stub
- Calling nr_msg3_transmitted in scheduler for NSA mode
Also updated the NR nFAPI for properly packing
and unpacking the ra_indication. Lastly, added
the functionality for calling the callback RX_ind
functions in the VNF. The RX_IND PDU is recevied
as NULL in the gNB so need to investigate how to
properly pack and unpack the *pdu in the RX_ind.
The fix added in this commit may not be correct and
should be reviewed by Eurecom. For now we set the
future frame based on the PRACH recevied frame + 1.
Also fixed the copying of RACH ind into UL_INFO global.
RAR is being passed to NR UE.
Also fixed a few bugs in nr-nFAPI:
- Push16->push8 fix in packing of RACH
- Allocating memory for pdu_list and preamble_list in unpack
- Properly indexing through both lists during unpack
- Created new nr_rach handling function
Also calling the new L1_nsa_prach_procedures()
function after using the nr_ue_scheduler. Added
some error checking in the nr_ue_scheduler. Added
some error checking in the process_nsa_msg in both
the NR and LTE UE
Also removed several warnings by properly
declaring nr-nFAPI functions and removed
declaration of unused functions. Also, reverted
eNB configuration file changes.
Also removed the [eNB_index + 1] saving/writing
in the process_MeasObj function. This indexing
was incorrect. Also cleaned up the code, fixed
ssRSRB -> ssbRSRP. Lastly, added assertFatals
around indexing in process_measObj function.
Added check and logs. If we change ind = 1 it
crashes the LTE UE so we log for now. Also cleaned
up a lot of the code. Lastly, we set freed vars to NULL.
This commit has several other changes. The changes
include the following:
1. Changed the port numbers for the NRUE<->Proxy
2. Fixed the send to function in the NR UE
(Previously only sending buffer not buffer+msg_type)
3. Updated pack/unpack of the SSB PDU (new RSRB field added)
4. Fixed several NR logs
5. Opening socket with NRUE<->Proxy AFTER receving RRC
measurement request from the LTE UE
