* NAS -> RRC: RRC receives an ITTI message with NAS 5GMM indication message
containing the 5G-S-TMSI derived from NAS GUTI
* 5G-S-TMSI is stored in the RRC instance and to be later encoded in the RRCSetup
fix NTN LEO scenarios
- gNB: add support for NTN parameter ta-CommonDrift-r17
- NR UE: fix application of NTN TA information
- NR UE: add command line parameter ntn-initial-time-drift to compensate
time drift during initial sync
- NR UE: fix writeTimestamp inconsistencies
- NR UE: add MAC state UE_RECEIVING_SIB ensuring to start RA only after
successfully receiving SIBs
- rfsimulator: update earth radius for LEO simulation to match UE
position in ue.conf file
- update conf files for NTN LEO scenario
- update description how to run NTN scenarios in RUNMODEM.md
- fix: ta-Common is a round-trip-time, not a one-way delay
- NR UE: simplify calculation of next_tx_slot_and_frame by moving up
assignment of duration_rx_to_tx
- cellbarredNTN indicates notbarred in SIB1 if NTN access is available
- Removed b66 NTN and enabled B254 NTN conf file in CI
- NR UE: RRC layer now explicitly tells MAC layer when the RA procedure
can be started
- move NTN LEO config to band 254 and update doc/RUNMODEM.md

E1AP enc/dec lib improvements
This MR is including some fixes and improvements for the E1AP library,
focusing mostly on Bearer Context Management:
- struct reorganization: split setup and modification request messages
into distinct structures, ensuring compliance with 3GPP TS 38.463
specifications
- add encoding/decoding sub-functions for different IEs
- improvements to Bearer Context Management: Implemented various
improvements to the E1 Bearer Context Setup Response and Request,
including the adoption of encoding/decoding sub-functions for
different IEs
- use lib functions whenever need (e.g. cp_bearer_context_setup_request
in cucp_cuup_e1ap.c)
- handle optional struct members as pointers
- updated copy/equality check utility functions
EDIT: The MR is also including the changes from !3222 (closed):
> While testing E1 with security enabled for DRBs, it was found that
> data traffic was not functional.
>
> The problem was that security settings were modified in the PDCP
> reestablishment happening when receiving Bearer Context Modification
> Request.
>
> So some restructuring was done.
>
> The actual fix is in 18176297, the others are for support. Basically
> we introduce a boolean to check if the security settings are present in
> Bearer Context Modification Request and we change PDCP security settings
> only if they are.
>
> (Note that in OAI CU security settings are not sent in Bearer Context
> Modification Request, so we could also remove all this, but we need to
> be compatible with other cu-up and/or cu-cp.)
Bearer context setup request and modification request messages
differ in various IEs according to 9.2.2 of 3GPP TS 38.463, e.g.
the Bearer context setup request does not contain a list of
DRBs to modify and does not contain an UP TL configuration.
Thus, the goal of this commit is to split the setup request message
and the modification request into two different structs:
* adopt e1ap_bearer_mod_req_t where necessary (e.g. fill_e1_bearer_modif)
Also, reorganized existing struct members according to specs:
* remove irrelevant struct members from the setup request
* group members from the same IEs into structs
* set optional struct members IEs as pointers
* add and adopt enc/dec/cp/eq lib functions for single IEs
* add UP_TL_information_t struct with TEID and TL address info and adopt in stack
* use int instead of long for count types
* update the relevant copy/equality check utility functions
Extra:
* add a function to handle Security Information in RRC in the process
* add create_up_tl_info and adopt in unit tests
NAS 5GS refactor
The goal of this MR is to reorganize the NR NAS code into:
- enc/dec library functions (5GS, 5GMM, 5GSM, NR_NAS_defs.h,
nr_fgs_nas_lib.c)
- handlers and callbacks (nr_nas_msg.c)
The following changes are introduced:
1. migrate 5GS enc/dec lib (5GMM and 5GSM) to a dedicated folder
2. add a nested CMakeLists structure
3. refactor NR NAS enc/dec functions
4. refactor NR NAS messages struct definitions
5. remove most of dependency from NAS LTE
6. further refactor of PDU Session Establishment Accept processing to
separate enc/dec from handling
7. made naming of 5GS definitions consistent whenever necessary
8. cleanup unused code
9. remove redundant struct definitions
Also:
1. fix decoding of AMF Set ID in 5G-S-TMSI UE identity
2. replace Byte_t directly with uint8_t
E1 Setup enc/dec library and unit test
This MR is adding a library for E1 Setup enc/dec functions:
- E1 CU-UP Setup Request
- E1 CU-UP Setup Response
- E1 Setup Failure
and relevant unit tests
- Refactor SCTP Association Response Handling
- Unified function for both CU-CP and CU-UP handling
- CU-CP: Notifies RRC of E1 connection loss with CU-UP
- CU-UP: Initiates a new SCTP association request to regain E1 connection
- this fix will prevent issue #878 from happening
- Send list of PDU Session Resources to Failed Setup in the (PDU Session
Resource/Initial Context) Setup Response
- depending on different failure scenarios
- e.g. (#878) when No CU-UP is associated and still the CU-CP receives a PDU
Session Setup Request
- add relevant functions to handle NGAP Setup Response messages with failed
list of items
- this is an extra failure handling to make #878 is handled if it ever happens
again
- NGAP Cause Refactoring
- Refactor struct for NGAP cause group and value
- Add extended radio network cause enumeration values
- Refactor redundant code into a new NGAP cause encoding function
- Minor logging, function descriptions improvements
Closes#878
* this commit is making explicit the mandatory IE cn_support
in the E1 Setup Request message
* also, init cn_support in E1 Setup Request initial message preparation
* E1 CU-CP Setup Request is an E1 Interface Management message
whose type defition was missing, and it is introduced in this commit
(see 9.2.1.7 of 3GPP TS 38.463)
* this function is used by both CU-CP and CU-UP
* it behaves differently depending on the type of E1 instance:
CU-CP: inform RRC of E1 connection loss with CU-UP
CU-UP: trigger a new SCTP association request by sending an ITTI to the CU-UP task
* after receiving the E1AP register request, the CU-UP will send a new association request to
SCTP until new E1 connection is achieved by sending a TIMER_HAS_EXPIRED message to the CU-UP
task. The function e1apHandleTimer() is basically triggering a new E1 association request
until new E1 connection is achieved
* print SCTP association state in e1ap.c whenever needed
Related to #878
* new struct definition including both NGAP cause group and value
* add encoding function, temporarily in ngap_common.c
(in the long term to be place in a enc/dec NGAP library)
* extend Radio Network cause enum values
* add cause member to Setup Failure
Reduce race conditions through a itti queue, such that RRC-initiated MAC
memory modifications happen at the same time as MAC thread writes.
However, it doesn't resolve the problem of exact slot we should apply
the new cell configurtion.
NGAP-Initial Context Setup Failure
NGAP Failure message - Initial Context Setup Failure. When an Initial
Context Setup Request is received with the UE context as null, it
triggers Initial Context Setup failure

Refactor of includes in gNB/UE for improved header management
This merge request implements changes suggested by the Include What You Use
(IWYU) open source tool to streamline the project’s header file usage.
The adjustments ensure that each file includes only the necessary headers for
the symbols it uses, making the code more efficient and maintainable.
Unnecessary includes have been removed, and missing headers have been added
where required. This improves modularity and reduces inter-dependencies between
files, helping to avoid future build issues caused by unused or missing includes.
Each output has been manually reviewed.
Followed a similar approach as in !2953 (merged).
Affected folders/files:
- NR_MAC_gNB/main.c
- nr-softmodem.c
- unitary simulators: nr_dlsim, nr_ulsim, prachsim
- openair2/RRC/NR
- openair3/NGAP
- openair2/LAYER2/nr_pdcp
- openair2/SDAP/nr_sdap
Fix Regression 4G
- Fix various bugs and/or regressions in 4G code
- Also, the CI does not test RFsim 4G with --sanitize, enables this to
detect problems.
Implement the Transmission Action Indicator F1AP forwarding logic, and
add it to the F1 internal representation structure. After the
transmission interrupt timer (during which SRB1 can send messages), the
UE will be out-of-sync (we assume it's not there anymore).

- rename as_nas_info_t member data to nas_data to have a uniq name to
trace between complex malloc/free of this pointer
- fix, maybe not perfect, these pais od malloc/free
- remove typedef name changes across transmission of these as_nas_info_t
over itti, as name changing makes it even more confusing
- remove globals that are likely possible races
- in as_message_decode() fix memcpy size, it is hard to understand the
initial idea, likely the author beleives a struct of struct makes a
intermediate pointer
- in network_api.c remove globals (static but used globally)
- remove casts that are there to hide gcc warnings on probable unaligned
access
- remain a weird mix of packed/unpacked versions of the same typedef,
but gcc is happy
* added missing Transaction ID to te F1 Setup Failure message struct
* fill F1 Setup Failure transaction ID in RRC before calling the F1 Setup Failure function
