gNB: apply new NR_CellGroupConfig when RRCReconfiguration is acknowledged
Currently part of the NR_CellGroupConfig is already applied when the
RRCReconfiguration message is created. This is not correct and this MR
fixes this by applying it when the RRCReconfiguration message is
acknowledged.
With this fixed, we also move disabling the feedback (in case
disable_harq is used) from the RRCSetup message to the
RRCReconfiguration message.
Closes: #1002
CORESET start multiple of 6 fix
According to the standard any CORESET (except CSET0) would always start
from the first common resource block index which is multiple of 6 in the
BWP. This was not taken into account in the code. The BWP switch CI test
is modified to test a BWP start not multiple of 6.
An exception is the case where rb-Offset-r16 parameter is set, but can't
be used at gNB for FAPI compatibility.
Closes: #1037
[FHI72] Fix the PRACH FFT size
ru_config->fftSize is used for the C-plane Section Type 3 which is
dedicated for PRACH and mixed numerology. Previously, we assumed that
PRACH FFT size is equivalent to PxSCH FFT size, but should be based on
the PRACH format.
Tests with the following RUs:
- [x] Benetel v1.2.2 & v1.4.1
- [x] VVDN Gen 3
- [x] Liteon 02.00.10
- [x] Metanoia v2.2.8 (Jura)

Make sure to apply Doppler and TA not directly when receiving the target cell ntn_config,
but apply Doppler just before the initial sync, and the TA after the initial sync when
we have tha actuel cell frame and slot numbers.
We need the ntn_config when reconfiguring the PHY layer for a new initial sync,
e.g. for calculating the DL Doppler frequency.
As a dedicated scheduled_response dl_config PDU it reaches the PHY layer too late,
as part of the phy_config.config_req it reaches the PHY layer in time with the
other configuration values.
vrtsim: Optimize channel modelling
Optimization pass for channel modelling on transmission in vrtsim. This
comes from a requirement of O-RU to perform channel modelling with minimum
latency. The latency measured in O-RU 4TX 2RX on the UE is lowered from
~400 uS to ~100uS.
- Reduced MAX_CHANNEL_LENGTH to 200 and introduced SAVED_SAMPLES_LEN
- Refactored channel modelling actor allocation to parallelize work better
- Improved batching and task creation for channel modelling
- Replaced static global saved_samples with local static buffer in vrtsim_write_with_chanmod
Create a new CI pipeline for testing with vrtsim on Gracehopper:

CI: adjust UE attach timeout handling
This modification addresses an issue in the RFSim-5G 2x2 test where the UE
often fails to attach within the initial 20s window. The timeout may cause
the UE to restart, which leads to two UEs appearing in the gNB log. By
increasing the initial timeout to 40s, we avoid unnecessary restarts.
- Set default attach_timeout to 40s
- Increase timeout only after failed attach attempts

Reset outdated PUCCHs to avoid Assertion caused by non-processed and
active PUCCHs
When there is real-time issues in L1 it may happen that the scheduler
misses/skips some slots, thus, L2 not processing and not freeing some
structures like PUCCH. This commit avoids the Assertion by resetting
any Active outdated PUCCH
UE NTN : Fix in case SIB19 periodicity is greater than 2 secs
This was observed when testing OAI NTN UE against a third party gNB (UXM).
LEO SIB19 periodicity of > 2000 ms was used, in which case T430 timer expires
before SIB19 is re-read. This fix handles the case where SIB19 periodicity >
2secs, such that SIB19 is re-read in time and T430 timer does not expire.
Pass beam ID as per FAPI v222.10
This MR
1. Sets MSB of beam ID when passing beam ID to 7.2 radio
2. Modifies phytest scheduler to allocate SSBs on different beams
3. Introduce new MAC config parameter for beam mode to specify HiPHY or LoPHY
beamforming
In perfrom_channel_modelling, do convolution in batches which allows
vrtsim to write the channel samples as they are being produced instead
of waiting for the last sample in the slot to be ready.
Limit sample history to 256 samples and copy it into each channel modelling
task instead of relying on globally available buffer. This simplifies the code
and addressing into the saved samples buffer as well as enabling further
optimizations without sacrificing thread safety.
