Improvements to RRC PDU session and DRB handling logic
This merge request introduces a major simplification and cleanup of the gNB RRC
PDU Sessions and DRBs handling logic. The core goals of this work are to:
- Replace fixed-size PDU Session, DRBs and QoS arrays with dynamic containers
- Simplify and modularize helper functions for session/DRB management
- Prepare for further refactoring of the PDU Session state machine
- Improve code safety and maintainability through better bounds checking
- Replace simple counter-based DRB ID assignment with actual DRB ID lookup
- Add nested loop to iterate through DRBs for each PDU session to be release
- Improve logic flow with early continue for non-matching PDU sessions
This ensures DRB release list contains correct DRB IDs that correspond to actual DRB entities
* There is no IE corresponding to PDU sessions failed to release
in the PDU SESSION RESOURCE RELEASE RESPONSE message. This was removed
and the corresponding code was refactored and cleaned up.
* In the Release Command handler, only established PDU Session are set to be
released. The Response message is filled accordingly.
Motivation:
The previous architecture had several issues:
- Duplicate DRB generation logic in generateDRB() and generateDRB_ASN1()
- Embedded SDAP/PDCP configs in drb_t created tight coupling
- No clear separation between RRC internal state and ASN.1 encoding
- Maintenance burden due to duplicated configuration logic
New Architecture:
- drb_t now only stores DRB-specific data (ID, PDU session ID, PDCP config)
- SDAP configuration moved to PDU session level (following PDCP design pattern)
- ASN.1 encoding helpers (nr_rrc_build_*_config_ie()) handle conversion
- Single source of truth for DRB creation in RRC via nr_rrc_add_drb()
Key changes:
- Store nr_sdap_configuration_t per PDU session
- Simplified drb_t structure: removed embedded SDAP/PDCP configs, added pdusession_id
- New helper: nr_rrc_build_sdap_config_ie()
- Updated createDRBlist() to use new helper functions and proper DRB ID lookup
- Refactored trigger_bearer_setup() to use nr_rrc_add_drb() and fill_e1_drb_to_setup()
- Removed generateDRB() and generateDRB_ASN1() functions
- Updated set_bearer_context_pdcp_config() to return config by value
- Added SDAP configuration header file for type definitions
This eliminates code duplication, improves maintainability, and creates
a cleaner separation between RRC state management and ASN.1 encoding.
- Move QoS-related enums and structures from ngap_messages_types.h to 5g_platform_types.h
- Replace ngap_* QoS types with generic qos_* types for better reusability
- Update field names from allocation_retention_priority to arp for consistency
- Update all references across RRC and NGAP modules to use new type names
- Remove duplicate QoS type definitions from NGAP-specific header
This improves code organization by centralizing QoS parameter definitions
in a common platform types header and eliminates NGAP-specific naming
in favor of more generic, reusable type definitions.
The maximum number of QoS flows is 64.
- Replace QOSFLOW_MAX_VALUE with MAX_QOS_FLOWS constant
- Move MAX_QOS_FLOWS definition to common/platform_constants.h
- Remove duplicate QOSFLOW_MAX_VALUE definition from ngap_messages_types.h
This improves maintainability by centralizing the QoS flow limit constant
and eliminates duplicate definitions across different header files.
- Limit scope of get_default_rbconfig function: from asn1_msg.c/.h to rrc_gNB_nsa.c where it's used
- Create new rrc_gNB_asn1.c/h files for ASN.1 utility functions: they can be used in other RRC files
- Add nr_rrc_build_pdcp_config_ie function for building PDCP configuration IEs
- Update get_default_rbconfig to use the new PDCP config builder
- Add rrc_gNB_asn1.c to CMakeLists.txt build configuration
The previous DRB management relied on a fixed-size array (established_drbs[MAX_DRBS_PER_UE])
and manual status tracking using DRB_ACTIVE/INACTIVE flags. This approach was inefficient,
and made assumptions about DRB ID allocation that do not generalize well
to dynamic procedures like bearer modification or removal.
* Replace fixed-size array established_drbs[] with dynamic
seq_arr_t *drbs in gNB_RRC_UE_t
* Refactor get_drb() and added nr_rrc_add_drb() with clean abstractions
using find and seq_arr lib
* Updated all DRB-related logic (e.g., generateDRB,
F1AP/E1AP tunnel config, reestablishment, mobility) to use seq_arr.
* Removed status field and DRB_ACTIVE/INACTIVE logic: list presence implies active
* DRB ID allocation now tracked via seq_arr size : simplifies DRB management and
avoids DRB ID–indexed assumptions: code assumed DRB IDs mapped directly to
array indices: established_drbs[drb_id - 1]. This could break when:
DRB IDs are not sequential, DRBs are removed and re-added, or there are gaps in IDs
The RRC PDU Session struct is converted from a fixed-size array
to a dynamically sized seq_arr. This improves flexibility and
simplifies session management by eliminating arbitrary size limits
and enabling dynamic addition/removal of PDU sessions.
Helper functions and loops have been adapted to use the seq_arr API.
This change is a step toward more robust and maintainable handling
of PDU sessions in the gNB RRC layer.
The "status" state machine remains untouched in this commit and
is refactored in a later commit.
Also:
* add macro to push to seq_arr and return the new element
* move initialization of xid (RRC PDU Session struct) to
find_pduSession (temporary, will be finalized in a later
commit) since with the new seq_arr design the initialization
is no longer possible in the UE context generation (also
does not belong to it, initialize when adding a new PDU Session)
The function was printing a "not found" error message even in the case
the return value was set to "true". Return directly true/false.
This is relevant in PDU Session Release procedures.
- Process all PDU sessions in handover request instead of only the first one
- Add DevAssert for bounds checking on nb_of_pdusessions
- Fix logic error where multiple PDU sessions were ignored in handover scenarios
Previously, the RRC layer was incorrectly allocating stack memory for the ho_required_transfer field and passing it to NGAP, however it was not used. The IE is mandatory but contains only 1 optional IE, therefore is encoded in the NG message with empty content.
Changes:
- Remove unnecessary ho_required_transfer field from pdusession_resource_t definition, the IE is encoded anyway with empty content. If Direct Forwarding Path Availability is needed at any stage in the future it can be added to pdusession_resource_t and filled in RRC.
- Add clarifying comment about empty HandoverRequiredTransfer structure
NR UE: in nr_ue_scheduler.c set LCID_buffer_remain to 0 if RLC indicates not
more bytes in buffer
If the RLC indicates that there is no more data in the buffer, also the
scheduler's LCID_buffer_remain should be set to 0. Else the UE sends BSR
indicating it has data to be transmitted. The gNB would then unnecessarily
schedule UL for this UE, which would not be used, as there is no actual data
to be transmitted.
Extend t300 in multi_ue rfsim testcase
Extend t300 to 1000 to increase the time the gNB has to handle MSG3. Hopefully
this prevents the UEs from timing out after MSG3. Add UE id to timer timeout
LOGs so the UE behavior can be traced through the stack.
Code cleanup (SRS, config files and more)
- Remove deprecated elements from some configuration files (also closes#997)
- Improve SRS code with a better separation between common code and gNB/UE code
- Other minor compilation improvements
Implementing the option to have more than 1 RSRP in CSI report
In collaboration with NI/Emerson.
The standard allows up to 4 RSRP measurements in CSI report (1 full and the other
differential). In current OAI, we just configure 1 RSRP report for the strongest
SSB. This MR allows to configure at gNB more than 1 RSRP report (depending on
config file, number of SSBs and UE capabilities) and makes changes at the UE to
send this report.

Replace bad DCI by specific message for each case and add checks for bad
pointers, or sanitize detected warnings. Then fix several issues in DCI
decoding. With this MR, LTE UE has less bad DCI, and each bad DCI has a
reason better diagnosis.
If the RLC indicates that there is no more data in the buffer, also the scheduler's
LCID_buffer_remain should be set to 0. Else the UE sends BSR indicating it has data
to be transmitted. The gNB would then unnecessarily schedule UL for this UE, which
would not be used, as there is no actual data to be transmitted.
Correctly handle unpacking of the first RSRP report and its resource ID before processing additional reports.
Use the initial RSRP value as the reference for differential RSRP calculations in subsequent reports.
