MR1029 : Benetel driver update
This MR fixes an issue with the driver for the 4G Benetel RRUs.
Power levels on the 5G side were adapted to avoid saturation of the signals.
5G performance is now the same as with USRP.
Support for 2 antennas for both 4G and 5G was added
MR1062 : fixing the RE offset for each Rx antenna in pusch channel estimation
This code allocates memory from the heap:
```
static void *UE_phy_stub_standalone_pnf_task(void *arg)
{
...
UL_INFO->crc_ind.crc_indication_body.crc_pdu_list =
calloc(NB_UE_INST, sizeof(nfapi_crc_indication_pdu_t));
```
I see NB_UE_INST==1.
Then this code:
```
void fill_crc_indication_UE_MAC(int Mod_id,
int frame,
int subframe,
UL_IND_t *UL_INFO,
uint8_t crc_flag,
int index,
uint16_t rnti,
nfapi_ul_config_request_t
*ul_config_req) {
...
nfapi_crc_indication_pdu_t *pdu =
&UL_INFO->crc_ind.crc_indication_body
.crc_pdu_list[UL_INFO->crc_ind.crc_indication_body.number_of_crcs];
```
used .number_of_crcs to index into .crc_pdu_list without first
checking if .number_of_crcs is in range.
When run with multiple UEs, sometimes .number_of_crcs==1 and then
-fsanitize=address complains.
Change is to use NUMBER_OF_UE_MAX instead of NB_UE_INST.
With this change, -fsanitize=address stopping complaining.
-fsanitize=address detected that we were trying to access bytes
past the end of a block of malloc'ed memory.
Specifically, in this code:
```
} else if (ENB_NAS_USE_TUN) {
if( LOG_DEBUGFLAG(DEBUG_PDCP) )
log_dump(PDCP, pdcpData, sizeToWrite, LOG_DUMP_CHAR,"PDCP
output to be sent to TUN interface: \n");
ret = write(nas_sock_fd[0], pdcpData, sizeToWrite);
```
-fsanitize=address said:
```
==80==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow on address
0x61100004ffdc at pc 0x7f57c5f576a5 bp 0x7f57bb53c240 sp
0x7f57bb53b9e8
READ of size 108 at 0x61100004ffdc thread T7
0x61100004ffdc is located 0 bytes to the right of 220-byte region
[0x61100004ff00,0x61100004ffdc)
```
So, the code was trying to access the first byte after a block of
heap memory.
sizeToWrite was calculated like this:
```
int sizeToWrite= sizeof (pdcp_data_ind_header_t) +
pdcpHead->data_size;
```
There were a few other similar invocations of write() in the same
function used the wrong size. That sizeToWrite calculation
should be used only when the header is being sent, too, which
happens in only one place in this function.
With this commit, our tests pass and -fsanitize=address is happy.
The global mbms_rab_id was defined as `uint16_t` in
eNB_scheduler_mch.c but `int` in other places. So, code that
wrotes this global would clobber the two bytes that follow the
variable in memory.
Found by `-fsanitize=address`.
In phy_free_lte_eNB in lte_init.c, the lte-uesoftmodem would
crash during shutdown because it was dereferencing null pointers.
This commit adds checks to avoid that.
For some reason the htons invocation got deleted which broke
the VNF P7 interface.
Also fixed some build issues, not sure how these got onto the
develop branch to begin with.
Removing references to memcpy_dl_config_req and
memcpy_tx_req because these functions are leaking
memory. For our standalone mode we have created
new/modified memcpy_dl/tx_req functions.
MR1046 : Add support for NR UL SC-FDMA up to 100 MHz
MR1053Nr : pdcp nea2 security
MR1049 : improve rfsim
-Fix a regression
Earlier parameter reading was moved to an external thread,
Eventually the check at the end of the main was too early,
Declaration of some extra parameters are now on command line
-Enhancement:
use the rfsim as a server on UE side, so we can connect two xNB to one UE
-Simplification:
remove rfsim flags that have been made for convergence with replay function in usrp driver, but this is useless as they changed their code
-Fix a bug in ubuntu 20.04 (now the code is ready in whole OAI)
MR1056 : Bugfix: NR BSR calculation
Fixes a bug in the scheduler for BSR calculation.
Before, we might wrongly track the BSR of a UE and not schedule it anymore although it has data.
Should be fixed now and improve UL throughput.
MR963 : Nr mac multi rach global edge
-Handling of Multiple Users triggering RACH request in different RACH Occasions in same slot
-Providing Random Access Response according to RACH request
MR978 :
We have incorporated 5G NR nFAPI into the develop branch
P5 and P7 interfaces for NR have been implemented.
With this MR, downlink transmission through nFAPI will be possible.
We have also made sure that 4G nFAPI can be used from within the develop branch.
