Testing on Neoverse N1 (Ampere 3GHz). Tested only on a subset of phy-simulators.
- Changes:
- use SIMDE consistently
- adaptations of LDPC decoder generator for ARMv8 performance
- SIMDe modifications of Intel CRC to allow for aarch64 build.
optimizations for 128-bit to improve performance of LDPC encode/decode
on aarch64 (Neoverse 1)
- added BG2 files for 128-bit ldpc encoder (aarch64)
- testing on Xeon
- testing on x86
- minor changes to build/run on x86
- change in crc.h after returning to aarch64
- removed some warning in ldpc decoder generator for x86_64
- char
- Delete irrelevant constants
- Correctly declare variables
- Define stdbool for all architectures
- Remove definition of _MM_SHUFFLE and use SIMDE_MM_SHUFFLE
- Remove commented code
- Fix CMakeLists.txt
- Include SIMDE avx2 functions in tools_defs.h
This improves the RFsimulator code to reach a ~40% E2E throughput
improvement (depending on the machines).
Changes:
- reduce ring buffer size
- code cleanup for readability
- set TCP kernel parameters
Config options --reconfig_file and --rbconfig-file have been introduced
to modify the filenames of reconfig.raw and rbconfig.raw (e.g., in the
case of multiple UEs). These filen*ames* were to be prepended with
--rrc_config_path to set the path. In summary, three options were
necessary, when two are sufficient.
In this commit, change to the options --reconfig-file and
--rbconfig-file (slight change for harmonization with other options,
which mostly use dashes) to give the full path to the corresponding
files, and avoid to surprise users who would not expect to have three
options.
--rrc_config_path has been deprecated and an error will be printed if a
user attempts to use it.
For FR2 and including analog beamforming, we control the beams via GPIO
on radio units.
In this commit, introduce a configuration option to switch the GPIO
control for different devices: "generic" is the current GPIO control,
"interdigital" configures the GPIO configuration to be used with an
InterDigital device.
- move following radios: AW2S, BladeRF, IRIS, LMSSDR, RFsimulator, USRP
- move following transports: Ethernet, benetel4g, benetel5g
- for each: create independent cmake variable to switch compilation
on/off, in order: OAI_AW2S, OAI_BLADERF, OAI_IRIS, OAI_LMSSDR,
OAI_SIMU, OAI_USRP, OAI_ETHERNET, OAI_BENETEL4G, OAI_BENETEL5G
- Remove RF_BOARD variable, allows to compile multiple boards at once
- where applicable: remove USERSPACE/LIB in path, i.e., move files up to
directories, as all are userspace libraries
Note that with the above, it is now mandatory to enable a radio
implementation before compiling it, e.g., for USRP:
./build_oai -w USRP
cmake .. -DOAI_USRP=ON && ninja oai_usrpdevif
At Eurecom now we only have Nuand bladeRF 2.0 (bladerf2) and those
calibration calls fail, so let's remove them. Maybe they are needed
for other boards, but we can't test at Eurecom. In case of problems
with other boards, contact us.
