Remove B200-specific clock-rate setting
Avoid this clock-rate setting, as we already do it around usrp_lib.cpp:1121, so
it is superfluous. For instance, we also do not set a master clock rate for N3xx
either. This also enables us to synchronize B200 for handover settings,
e.g., for !3651.
See the commit message for more information about synchronization.
Remove NR L2 simulator code from UE
This MR removes NR (SA and NSA) L2 simulator from the codebase. The code, at
least at the UE side, was done at a time where there was no clear L2/L1 split
leading to a complex implementation that never worked as expected. The L2
simulator has been broken and removed from testing for long time and, once it
needs to be revived, it would require a complete new implementation.
Assign antenna ports correctly for 1 and 2 layers for aerial.
With this change aerial successfully decodes PUSCH with 2 UL layers.
The code should use sched_pusch->dmrs.num_dmrs_cdm_grps_no_data == 1 rather
than NFAPI_MODE != NFAPI_MODE_AERIAL, but that will make the changes a bit
more extensive.
Prior to this change, sending antenna_ports.val = 2 with rank 2 would tell
the UE to transmit on DMRS ports 2,3 rather than 0,1 causing it to not decode.
[CI] Ensure multi-arch DockerHub Push after successful image build
This merge request improves the CI script to ensure that the DockerHub-Push
stage executes whenever:
- All Image Build stages succeed &
- doBuild is true &
- The event is a PUSH
This behavior ensures that Docker images are published whenever the image build
stages succeed, regardless of any failures in the Image Test stages.
Jetson ARM64/V8 and AMD64 images will now be published on DockerHub under the
same tag (develop or WEEK_TAG) to provide multi-architecture images.
Optimization of PDSCH precoding operation
x86/aarch64 optimizations for precoding, more complete timing reporting in
nr_dlsim. Timing report in nr_dlsim now shows the total PDSCH generation time
and is broken down into Layer mapping, resource mapping and precoding.
The optimizations for x86 are basically reorganizing loops (for AVX512,AVX2,
NEON but not SSE2) to minimize repetitive instructions when formatting of the
precoder weights, and creation of inline functions for complex multiply-add.
AVX512 optimization was added. requiring AVX512BW. Detection of up to 4 PRBs
with common PMI for efficiency with AVX512 (was 2 in develop for AVX2).
For aarch64, native coding of the precoder to avoid inefficient SIMDe
translations for this operation.
nr_dlsim now uses default precoding indices depending on the scenario instead
of 0 which doesn't do precoding at all.
See merge request description for nr_dlsim test results.
- On PUSH events, if image build stages succeed, trigger DockerHub push stage
- Build the images, then trigger the Push to DockerHub stage
- Publish Jetson (ARM64/v8) and AMD64 images under the same tag on DockerHub
Doing this before using set_master_clock_rate() on the B200 seems to
invalidate clock settings:
[HW] USRP clock set to 1759836386.000000 sec
[...]
[HW] current pps at 3.286750, starting streaming at 4.286750
In other words, the current time setting was reset. With this change
now, we see
[HW] USRP clock set to 1759929873.000000 sec
[...]
[HW] current pps at 1759929873.000000, starting streaming at 1759929874.000000
This is because changing clock sources (I assume setting the master
clock rate impacts the clock) can result in changing the time. From the
documentation of set_time_next_pps() [1]:
> Note: When changing clock sources, a previously set time will most
> likely be lost. It is recommended to set the time after changing the
> clock source. Otherwise, an unexpected time may line up with future PPS
> edges.

Reduce throughput requirement, as this fails once two DUs are connected
to a UE, which creates more load on the machine and frequently fails
with low throughput.
CI: Enable Physim threshold check for tests on Caracal and GH
This MR adds support for configurable timing threshold files in PhySim
tests.
- Introduces a new CMake cache variable PHYSIM_CHECK_FILES to specify
one or more timing threshold files (semicolon-separated).
- Enables optional enforcement of timing thresholds check in PhySim
tests without changing existing test definitions.
- Defines timing thresholds for LDPC encoding/decoding in nr_ulsim,
nr_dlsim and ldpctest on Caracal and GH machines.
SRS noise power
This MR implements the calculation of the noise power based on SRS in a
different way, and check whether SNR is more accurate or not. This MR is
built on top of the MR: !3460
A graph was added in T_Tracer to observe UL-SNR calculated using SRS.
See merge request description for measurement results.
Replace the previous add_timed_physim_test() macro with add_physim_test()
to use a single, unified function for defining physim tests. This simplifies
the test configuration and removes redundant macro definitions while keeping
all existing functionality.
This change follows up on the earlier addition of support for including
custom timing threshold files (PHYSIM_CHECK_FILES).
Update existing tests accordingly.
Add missing timinig analysis scripts to RHEL9 physim docker image. These files
are now copied from the build stage to /oai-ran/openair1/SIMULATION/tests/,
where they are expected by ctest.
Resolves following issue when running ctest in docker container:
CMake Error: Error processing file: /oai-ran/openair1/SIMULATION/tests/RunTimedTest.cmake
For some physical simulators, we have multiple SNR iterations.
The previous version of the script correctly retained only the last
measurement, but if a previous measurement condition set RC=1, the
script would fail although the final "good" run might fulfil the
measurement condition (IOW, it would show SUCCESS, but still fail on the
check).
Instead, check if all measurement lines finish on SUCCESS, which handles
the above case.
The awk script in analyze-timing.sh used syntax that works with gawk but fails
on systems where mawk is the default implementation, producing errors such as:
awk: /dev/fd/3: line 6: syntax error at or near ,
-- test command finished with SIGPIPE
Concretely, the match(text, pattern, variable) function does not exist
in mawk, as it cannot capture matches in variables. Work around by
substituing strings, and force a numeric comparison.
Fixes to prevent assertion due to 0 PRB allocation
Assertion (NPRB>0 && (NPRB + RBstart <= BWPsize)) failed!
In PRBalloc_to_locationandbandwidth0() /home/user/openairinterface5g/common/utils/nr/nr_common.c:506
Illegal NPRB/RBstart Configuration (0,51) for BWPsize 51
Probably caused by missing safeguards to prevent computing TBS with 0 PRB
as input.
Fix OAI UE memory leaks
Fix 1: Replaced asn1cFreeStruc with ASN_STRUCT_FREE in MAC layer to properly
free nested ASN.1 structures in cell group configuration.
Fix 2: Removed premature nullification of dedicatedNAS_Message->buf in
dlInformationTransfer processing to allow proper ASN.1 cleanup.
Fix 3: Fixed memory ownership in nr_rrc_process_dedicatedNAS_MessageList by
copying OCTET_STRING data instead of transferring ownership, preventing
ASN.1 cleanup from losing track of allocated memory
Closes#828
fix RSRP computation at UE
Conflicts between !3595 (merged) and !3596 (merged) leading to double conversion
of RSRP into index in L1 and L2. With this fix it is only converted in L2.
Replace int16 min when obvious
INT16_MIN doesn't have a opposite value on 16 bits, so SIMD abs (absolute()), or
simple C operations doesn't make the expected result.
example:
(gdb) p (short)-(short)-32768
$4 = -32768
(gdb)
This MR replaces constants INT16_MIN by -INT16_MAX (so -32767) in places where
it used for mathematical operations. This is not perfect, nevertheless reduces
overflow probability.
We saw in some places a dirty case: code do first calls to _mm_adds_epi16
(or subs), so because of the saturated operations, the probability to reach
32767 and -32768 is higher than the other numbers but, _mm_abs_epi16(), or
negate operations (conjugate) can follow, that is making strong error as
abs(-32768)=-32768
