In this pipeline, we frequently see losses of a single packet; we did
not find the true reason yet.
Accept 5% losses, assuming that serious packet loss would be catched by
(1) higher ping losses (2) iperf would be affected.
Use a script, which can be tested independently of CI code (by running
it on the host on which it will be used), and print the directory that
has been prepared in the HTML. Also, in the description, use the
infinitive/imperative(?) of the verb to harmonize with other steps.
The BuildeNB steps either does things that are already implemented
(created workspace), or things that we don't use (separate build_wait),
and is generally quite convoluted when all it does is calling build_oai.
Reimplement by reusing Create_Workspace, and make build_oai in a single
step. To clean up, make a new module in which this function does not
need a class instantiation. Instead, we give all necessary parameters
directly.
After the previous commit, the CI will always do an undeployment step
even if the CI failed. Hence, these XMLs are not necessary anymore. Some
XMLs are updated to do what their "cleanup XML" counterparts did, such
as removing additional images.
Create_Workspace is used used in XML files instead of directly being
executed in DeployObject(). This can be problematic if we deploy
multiple services on the same host, since a previous workspace will be
deleted. Also, it removes futile git clones.
There are other XML steps (CppCheckAnalysis, LicenceAndFormattingCheck,
BuildImage, BuildProxy, BuildClusterImage) that implicitly called
Create_Workspace. Those calls have been removed and care has been taken
to insert the corresponding Create_Workspace steps in the XML.
- Modify CN deployment and termination functions to include namespace and path parameters.
- Update `Module_UE` class with new attributes for namespace and CN path.
- Integrate `cnID` for OC CN deployment and termination in `epc.py`.
- Extract `cn_id` from XML configurations for CN operations.
- Update XML files to include `cn_id` tag for 5G Core initialization and
termination. (Used in OAIUE and AW2S pipeline, for OC CN deployment. This change
will not affect other CN deployments.)
- Introduced command line and configuration options to set up PCI address, CPU cores used by DPDK, and DPDK file prefix for T2 offload.
- Made the dpdk_dev parameter (for setting the PCI address of the T2) mandatory.
- Configure dpdk_dev in the CI test cases.
Unlike the previous commit, in noS1, we cannot use Attach(), as noS1
automatically brings up an interface, no matter whether the connection
succeeded or not. Therefore, consistently wait a bit longer to increase
the chance that the radio is really up.
For various reasons, the UE might take longer to connect to the eNB. A
simple sleep might not be enough; instead, use Attach() to actively wait
that the UE gets an IP address. The added bonus of this function is that
it will also stop&restart a UE if it did not attach, i.e., it will try
multiple times to attach the UE.
- adding a new test case
- the test case simulate a DL radio channel with noise and runs Iperf test with such channel conditions
- use CustomCommand class to send commands to a Telnet server
- switched from netcat’s unsupported -N option (OpenBSD) to --send-only (Ncat 7.94) for compatibility with CI
re-sync CI test in F1 RFSIM
- to be used in the future, for CI of RRCReestablishment in RFSIM
- adding four new test cases (040021, 040022, 040023, 040023) to the RFSIM F1 configuration
- the test cases simulate a disruption of the radio channel, verify UE sync loss and resync
and restore the original channel conditions
- use CustomCommand class to send commands to a Telnet server
