Try to merge feature-68-enb-agent into develop
develop should be fast-forwarded later to this branch to complete the merge
This code does not compile yet. Among other things:
- the scheduler structure needs to be reworked for FlexRAN
- the config is structured differently. The files enb_config.{c,h} from develop
have been copied in here, the files with merge annotations are in
enb_config.{c,h}.before_merge
- the restart needs to be restructured, since the PHY vars data structure lives
in RC now
As reported by Emad Alizade:
According to "Issue255 256 257 paging reesta release" that has been
merged in develop version, we have a question: In rrc_eNB_free_UE()
function only all ulsch related memory of user has been cleaned, but
I think not only ulsch memory but also dlsch memory must be cleaned.
I tested the latest develop version and with repetition UE attach-detach
procedures we find that the dlsch memory has not been cleaned and after
repeat this sequence (45 times) assertion with cause UE_id!=-1 (no free
or exiting dlsch_context, dci_tools.c: fill_dci_and_dlsch() ) occurred
and no UE will be attached to system.
The fixes in this commit are from Emad Alizade.
Summary of changes:
- Implementation of paging (see issue #255 in gitlab)
- Implementation of RRC RE-ESTABLISHMENT (see issue #256 in gitlab)
- Implementation of RRC CONNECTION RELEASE (see issue #257 in gitlab)
Some modifications with timers have been done.
Expect (and report) problems, thanks.
What has been tested:
- monolithic eNB 5 and 10MHz with one commercial UE. UDP and TCP
traffic, uplink and downlink, with iperf (with a third party
EPC, not openair-cn). TCP downlink traffic is not stable.
Reason yet unknown. Will be fixed later.
Summary of changes:
- integration of Cisco work on nFAPI.
See commits 7757b9e7e7
and 922b5b595a for details.
- support Ubuntu 17.04 and 17.10
- bugfix: DCI padding bits
This bug made the system non-working because the DCIs for
SIBs were wrong. See commit c5ca2bd862
for details.
- fix issue 281: IQ record/playback explicit filename segv.
This commit fixes issues introduced by the previous commit.
Summary of work:
- cleanup:
- fix LOG_XX to be less verbose
- fix cmake_targets/CMakeLists.txt
- fix oaienv
- remove dead code
- bug fixes:
- in openair1/SCHED/fapi_l1.c we had:
eNB->pdcch_vars[subframe&1].num_dci = number_dci;
should be:
eNB->pdcch_vars[subframe&1].num_dci = 0;
This bug let the PHY send more DCIs than what should have been
sent because num_dci is incremented later on in the code.
This fix may be a problem for fapi mode, to be checked.
- add new T VCD traces
- revert openair1/PHY/TOOLS/file_output.c to 'develop' version
- remove thread_id in logRecord/logRecord_mt
- revert (and adapt) configuration files
- be careful when doing frame++, we need to % 1024
- revert target_rx_power in openair2/LAYER2/MAC/eNB_scheduler_ulsch.c
- NFAPI:
- the open-nFAPI code has been included in the repository. See nfapi/README.
Maybe we should "git clone" the Cisco repository instead. We have to be
careful of availability though.
What has been tested:
- monolithic eNB FDD 5/10MHz with one UE, iperf UDP/TCP uplink/downlink
Anything else may fail to work, especially the FAPI mode, which has not
been tested at all.
