A COTS UE is sending UE capabilities with accessStratumRelease "rel16"
which is not decoded by our RRC. Switching to RRC 16.13.0 lets our RRC
accept these capabilities (and as a positive side effect lets this
particular UE work nicely in NSA fr1).
Security part needs to be checked, may fail to work.
But if it fails, it was probably not working before either.
This commit also contains adding 'static' to nr_pdcp_entity_release()
and nr_pdcp_entity_delete() (it was too complicated to do a separate
commit for this).
We also update stats in free_rx_list() (again, too complicated for
a separate commit).
openair2/RRC/NR/rrc_gNB.c probably needs some more work, it is a
bit ugly to reestablish all the drbs without checking if they
exit. It will generate warnings at runtime. I didn't do it because
I don't know the proper way.
The function generateDRB() sets the value to 100ms but the function
rrc_gNB_process_NGAP_PDUSESSION_SETUP_REQ() sets it to 0ms.
So what happens is that the UE gets the value 100ms in the
RRC Reconfiguration but the gNB creates the PDCP entity with 0ms.
Let's create it with 100ms instead, to be aligned with how we configure
the UE.
And also avoid some PDCP warnings at runtime when some packets
are retransmitted but rejected because of the 0ms timer. This is
the warning:
[PDCP] discard NR PDU rcvd_count=68469, entity->rx_deliv 68481,sdu_in_list 0
This is just a hotfix. A real solution is to have the RB creation in
only one place. And we should also have those parameters configurable.
Work for later.
Multiple DUs host cells, whose cell ID cannot match (to identify them
uniquely). Hence, don't check for equality with CU, because otherwise,
we can never connect multiple DUs.
An assoc_id of 0 is used to mark UEs whose DU is "offline" (not
connected). In this patch, if a DU disconnects, we go through all UEs
and set their assoc_id to 0 if they belong to a UE that just went
offline.
This code printed BW masks (what is this) and number of MIMO layers. It
was dependent on the current DU, and only showed the information for the
current DU config (SCS, band). On DU disconnect, it leads to segfaults
to this dependency, and IMO is not useful in itself (it could rather be
printed when receiving the UE capabilities, for all bands etc.).
The DU UE capability printing depends on data on SCS and band, which
currently is only stored with the DU. To avoid any assert, we check
that the DU is present. A follow-up commit will rework this.
- Set the correct QoS flow ID to associate a correct QoS flow to the
bearer: the UE would misassociate otherwise
- Set the DRB as the default: the handler applies bool with true==1, so
use bool value
Introduce a --no-itti-threads command line option to disable threading
in ITTI, and call message handlers in the current thread. This is being
introduced in order to increase repeatability when testing the nrUE with
the IQPlayer. Without this feature, runs with the IQPlayer will end up
differently, depending on the timing of ITTI threads, mostly when
sending messages to RRC and NAS.
