A lock help during executing a timer event prevented such event from
creating/removing new timers due to a dead lock. This commit changes the
logic of the timing loop and adding/removing code such that this dead
lock does not happen.
This commit introduces several enhancements in X2AP and RRC to deal
with ENDC. The main goal is to deal with UE's on/off and with various
errors.
The following work is included:
- DC prep and DC overall X2 timers
- X2 messages for UE release and DC timers' timeout
Open problems:
- what to do when the UE sends an scg Failure? This commit removes
the UE. And this removal may not be correctly done
- UE removal in the gNB's PHY layer (a next commit is coming,
but it is hackish and will need a rework)
The test seemingly ensures that this code block is hit only once.
However, if we enable later activation of MMEs, it will be hit a second
(and third, ...) time. The only thing in guards against, though, is an
INIT message to the L1L2 thread, when register_enb_pending == 0, which
should only be sent once. Therefore, functionality won't be changed if
register_enb_pending becomes negative, and the assert can be removed.
Previously, the various rlc_*_ind() functions had a parameter to enable
the MAC to specify the max TB size that a subsequent call to the
corresponding rlc_*_req() (!) function would return. This patch removes
this parameter from the rlc_*_ind() functions and makes the parameter
working that is already in the rlc_*_req() functions.
UE_list_t is now used as a separate list. It can be e.g. used in the
scheduler to mark groups of users. The original UE_list_t is renamed to
UE_info_t to reflect that it is a container for information about UEs.
