Correctly copy nFAPI messages
All nFAPI message have copy helpers, so use that for "loading" nFAPI
messages into the L1. This also fixes a bug/error message
2. 0 no corresponding tx_data.request for dl_tti.request index 11, dropping
because the loop over DL_tti.request assumed that all messages are PDSCH
PDUs, when we can have others such as PDCCH, etc. In other words, when
looking up indices ("11" in the example above), we were checking also
inside other messages for SSB, PDCCH, etc, which is of course wrong.
That loop was an attempt to validate matching PDSCH PDUs with
TX_data.requests. This check is already done inside
phy_procedures_gNB_TX() through an assert, but this commit replaces with
the equivalent check previously inside nr_pnf_p7_get_msgs(). This is ok,
as the L1 cannot trust the scheduler (in monolithic) to provide the
correct information, either.

Implementation of STOP exchange
This implements the STOP.request/indication for all 3 transport mechanisms, the
VNF will send the STOP.request to the PNF, indicating it will disconnect, and
await a STOP.indication from the PNF
The WLS VNF is reworked to be able to start before the PNF, by calling call
rte_eal_init and rte_dev_probe to determine if dpdk has been initialized
properly, before calling rte_eal_init in the intended process when it is
appropriate to do so
Reimplement nFAPI message exchange between L1 and L2 following the
changes in parent commit removing msgDataTx.
Avoid direct calls and use NR_IF_module fptrs to avoid linking problems.
allowing to remove some function definitions that are not needed.

This allows access to the VNF configuration in the various transport mechanisms straight from config, without this, the transport specific thread would cause a segmentation fault when trying to access the pack/unpack function pointers.
Add 2 functions to access the P5 and P7 VNF structures, to avoid having to always cast user_data and p7_vnfs
1. Refactor PDCCH PHY functions to take rxdataF of one OFDM symbol and
produce LLR for each search space. The modified functions take
rxdataF in a different format than that produced by nr_slot_fep(). So
for now a memcpy is used to change the array structure. Once
nr_slot_fep() is modified, this memcpy will no longer be needed and
will be removed.
2. Modify DCI functions to decode DCI in the last PDCCH symbol and
inidcate to MAC once.
3. Fix PDCCH monitoring for start symbol > 0.
4. Fix multiple PDCCH monitoring within slot.

Make all targets compile
This MR enables us to compile all targets, and does that in one CI test. This
closes#726. Now, this should work:
cd ~/openairinterface5g
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -GNinja && ninja
To achieve this, I did the following:
- some targets have been fixed (warnings, errors)
- some targets have been removed when they did not seem to serve a good purpose
(e.g., an almost empty test)
- some targets have been commented (e.g., LTE simulators, some unitary tests)
which we maybe want to revive in the future
- some targets built when just building with ninja, but not all. For instance,
telnetsrv_enb would typically build, but it was missing a dependency. Doing
cmake .. -GNinja && ninja telnetsrv_enb would show this (in develop)
To help with the last bullet point, there is a script compile_targets.sh that
can compile targets independently (and in parallel, to not wait for ages) to
show that targets compile properly compile-targets.patch.
In almost all cases, the problem is that a specific module uses the logging
module, which depends on T, which needs to dynamically create headers. The way
to do this is to have a dependency, and many targets use generate_T or {T_LIB}
({} intentional: T might be absent, so then it evaluates to nothing). However,
not all do this, and those that depend on T actually don't depend on T, but on
the logging module, which in turn depends on T. So in many places, a simple
dependency onto log_headers fixes this problem, and generate_T or {T_LIB}
simplifies the dependency (but not always). The commits should have more info.
Note that at least the targets in FlexRIC do not all compile, at least in the
configuration that we use in docker/Dockerfile.build.ubuntu. So for the latter,
we cannot build with a simple ninja, but FlexRIC seems to be the only one that
does not compile. Since FlexRIC is a separate repository, that needs to be
addressed in the corresponding repository.
These libraries depend on the logging module, so add the right
dependency log_headers. Indirectly, this will fulfill the condition of
T. I consider the prior usage of generate_T or {T_LIB} incorrect,
because basically none of these libraries actually, actively use T, but
rather only the logging module, which pulls in T. The dependency of
log_headers will also take care of generating and including T headers,
which is a dependency of the logging module.
For conf2uedata and related, fulfill the dependency
through conf2uedata_lib (on which the rest depends).
Fix an issue in which the unpacking is erroneously deemed unsuccessful even though it succeed in pulling all the bytes, this was due to not properly handling the return value of pull16 which is either 0 or 2, not 0 or 1.
Check the results of push and pull operation with correct boolean operator.
Revert "Removed TRP-scheme byte from UL BF PDU to Interop with Aerial 25-1 (FAPI 10.02)"
This commit broke compatibility with Aerial when compiled with
-DSCF_FAPI_10_04_SRS=ON. It was decided that this should become the
default.
Modify documentation, and use a dedicated image name to make it clear in
the CI that it has SRS.

This reverts commit 8beb382277.
Refactor ULSCH scheduler towards more TDD pattern flexibility
Refactors ULSCH scheduler, notably to support "UL-heavy" TDD patterns,
e.g., DSUUU. Also allows to run TDD pattern2 with UL slots, which was a
limitation in the previous code.
Adds the capability to pack/unpack the TDD table in CONFIG.request
following both SCF222.10.02 (Tag 0x1027) and SCF222.10.04 (Tag 0x1035)
formats In the case of Aerial, the TDD table is packed following the
10.04 format, but with the 10.02 tag Prevent the packing of Digital
Beamforming table and Precoding Matrix table for Aerial
Add WLS as a transport option for VNF/PNF, refactor existing options
This MR adds a new transport mechanism for the VNF and PNF split, using
the Intel WLS library, which makes use of DPDK and shared memory to
transport messages. This transport mechanism is what is used to
interface with Radisys ODU, while also working with OAI VNF/PNF.
The VNF and PNF have been refactored so that the transport-specific
functions are isolated from the rest of the logic, and as such,
interchangeable by means of function pointers.
The same change is done for the packing/unpacking procedures, allowing
to switch between FAPI and nFAPI encoding.
This MR also reduces the amount of duplicated code, by refactoring the
VNF with Aerial, which now only has the transport-relevant functions, as
well as the ones that are unique to it ( for example, the unpacking
procedures where a secondary data buffer is used for the message
payloads )
Additionally a new callback is added to the VNF to process
ERROR.indication messages, which currently only indicates which message
originated the error, and which error occurred.
Checks whether there are at least 4 bytes available to pull tag and length values.
On tlv_list unpack, if the size is sent as 0, immediately exit the function
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.
Remove duplicated functions in fapi_vnf_p7.c, leaving only functions for messages that require usage of the secondaty data_buf for unpacking
Move vnf_info struct declaration to nfapi_vnf.h to be available in fapi_nvIPC.c
Add check to vnf_nr_handle_param_response for when phy_info is not found
The WLS VNF is in charge of Enqueueing the used blocks after usage for transport, this is done by keeping track of all blocks used, and calling WLS_Enqueue for all of them upon receiving a SLOT.indication
The common library exposes functions for the PNF to return the received blocks to the VNF for it to call WLS_Enqueue on them.
This is done in order to ensure the Blocks are returned after processing, also preventing the Dequeueing of blocks that are still being used, i.e. the internal value is not -1
All saved blocks are to be enqueued at the reception of a SLOT.indication by the VNF
Additionally, the definition of NFAPI_MAX_PACKED_MESSAGE_SIZE was moved to nfapi_interface.h and removed from the other headers, this is done to allow to set the maximum message size when using WLS by only changing the value in one place
Fixup fapi_nr_message_header_unpack call in nfapi_hex_parser
Switches the used socket type in pnf_interface.c and vnf_interface.c.
These values must always be the same in both components so the same socket type is used in both
Adds 3 new function pointers to the P5 and P7 VNF structures, allowing to configure which function to use to pack/unpack the messages, as well as unpack the message header, being then used seamlessly regardless of using the FAPI or nFAPI functions.
