Add Ethernet PDU session support and make PDU session request configurable
This MR adds support for Ethernet PDU sessions, and makes PDU sessions
configurable: per-PDU session ID, type (IPv4/IPv4v6/IPv6/Ethernet [1]),
DNN, NSSAI.
Concretely, it adds a new configuration file section pdu_sessions below
uicc0 that looks like this if everything is specified (default values
are shown):
uicc0:
[...]
pdu_sessions:
- id: 1
type: "IPv4"
nssai_sst: 1
nssai_sd: 0xffffff
dnn: "oai"
It is possible to list multiple PDU sessions (add new line - id: 2 to
request a second PDU session). It is backwards-compatible to the current
PDU session configuration (uicc0.dnn/nssai_sst/etc), the idea being that
either legacy or new configuration could be used, but (1) if
pdu_sessions exist, it will overwrite the legacy configuration, and (2)
multiple PDU sessions, and type, can only be configured using the new
config. The old parameters --extra-pdu-id and --default-pdu-id are not
accepted anymore. Documentation has been added to the UE tutorial.
It is possible to test an Ethernet PDU session [1]. It is possible to
test the PDU session inside the UE by verifying it has an TAP interface
oaitap_ue1, and ARPing the data network (arping has been added to
oai-nr-ue container for that purpose):
ip addr add 192.168.72.140/26 dev oaitap_ue1 # same subnet as data network!
ip link set dev oaitap_ue1 up
arping -c 20 -I oaitap_ue1 192.168.72.135 # will send ARP request in Ethernet frame to get IP address of data network
[1] See description MR !3769 for more information. On the UE side, only
the type has to be changed to "Ethernet".
Add SYS_NICE capability to enable setting thread priority and affinity
in rfsim5g tests. This improves execution speed in test cases with
heavier processing workloads.
- `init: true` initializes the docker container with tini or alternative - it is
used to collect all the processes and correctly pass the termination signal to
them, this allows the docker container to be stopped without waiting 10 seconds
to kill the container
- speeding up the healthchecks by reducing the interval from 1-10s to 0.5s during
start period

This commit adds yaml-cpp library to required docker images and build commands. There is one workaround
in cross-compilation for apt behavior for installing libyaml-cpp-dev. Apt will uninistall previous
versions of the package whenever another one is installed. This means that installing the arm version
breaks amd version and vice versa. This makes it impossible to have both libs installed at the same
time which is required by the cross-compilation build command (it calls cmake twice, once with native
and once with target architecture)
This updates all images in the CI to Ubuntu 22. It also updates
corresponding documentation. Remove python(2) from the image, as it is
not needed. Update documentation.
It seems that the gcc coming in Ubuntu 22 does not like
stack-protector-strong, so remove it as well.
Since we compile Flexric, which does not support Ubuntu 22's default
gcc-11 (it hits a compile bug), switch to gcc-12 manually.
Since we update the compiler, we also need to be careful to use the right
address sanitizer version (which is bundled with the compiler version).
To avoid a reinstallation of the wrong asan version in target images, we
modify Ubuntu 22 targets to copy libasan from the base image. This is necessary
since we use update-alternative in the base image, but we don't want to
install compilers in the target images to use update-alternatives to
install the right asan version... This should be undone when switching
to Ubuntu 24 in the future, as it will have a newer default gcc version,
such that we don't need to update the compile in the first place.
Upgrade libpython in lteUE for U22 upgrade to make it compatible with
UHD.
