semi-manual remove of not used #define commands
As i was upset to see all these #define with no code under, i made a
global pass to remove the obvious cases semi-manual remove of not used
bodies
manual script, then a lot of manual review
grep -IRs "#define" ../openair* ../common/* ../executables/ ../nfapi/ ../radio/ | \
fgrep -v '(' | fgrep -v '//' |awk '{print $2}' | egrep -v "#define *$n"| \
while read n ; do
grep -IRs $n ../openair* ../common/* ../executables/ ../nfapi/ ../radio/ | grep -v "#define *$n" | grep -q $n || echo $n;
done
will give a decent list of #define never used. Then, I think we should
keep lists of # define when it comes from standards, even if the code
doesn't use it right now
Add Ethernet PDU session support and make PDU session request configurable
This MR adds support for Ethernet PDU sessions, and makes PDU sessions
configurable: per-PDU session ID, type (IPv4/IPv4v6/IPv6/Ethernet [1]),
DNN, NSSAI.
Concretely, it adds a new configuration file section pdu_sessions below
uicc0 that looks like this if everything is specified (default values
are shown):
uicc0:
[...]
pdu_sessions:
- id: 1
type: "IPv4"
nssai_sst: 1
nssai_sd: 0xffffff
dnn: "oai"
It is possible to list multiple PDU sessions (add new line - id: 2 to
request a second PDU session). It is backwards-compatible to the current
PDU session configuration (uicc0.dnn/nssai_sst/etc), the idea being that
either legacy or new configuration could be used, but (1) if
pdu_sessions exist, it will overwrite the legacy configuration, and (2)
multiple PDU sessions, and type, can only be configured using the new
config. The old parameters --extra-pdu-id and --default-pdu-id are not
accepted anymore. Documentation has been added to the UE tutorial.
It is possible to test an Ethernet PDU session [1]. It is possible to
test the PDU session inside the UE by verifying it has an TAP interface
oaitap_ue1, and ARPing the data network (arping has been added to
oai-nr-ue container for that purpose):
ip addr add 192.168.72.140/26 dev oaitap_ue1 # same subnet as data network!
ip link set dev oaitap_ue1 up
arping -c 20 -I oaitap_ue1 192.168.72.135 # will send ARP request in Ethernet frame to get IP address of data network
[1] See description MR !3769 for more information. On the UE side, only
the type has to be changed to "Ethernet".
NR UE: add support for multiple RF frontends
This MR adds basic support for multiple RF-frontends at the UE.
There are multiple reasons why we might want this:
1. There might be different antennas needed for different bands (e.g. NTN or
TN antennas). These antennas might be connected to different RF-frontends.
In case of Handover, the UE needs to dynamically switch between these
RF-frontends.
2. Each rf-simulator connection carries baseband I/Q samples. To be able to
perform a handover between two cells at different frequencies, there must
be two rf-simulator connections, as the baseband channels should not
interfere and thus cannot simply be added.
3. When we want to support multiple UE simulation within one instance of
nr-uesoftmodem, and allow multiple cells and probably even handover between
these cells, we need either:
1. dedicated RF-frontends for each simulated UE, or
2. dedicated RF-frontends for each connected cell and dynamically assign
simulated UEs accordingly.
This MR implements what is needed for 1., 2. and 3.1.
Fix FFT size for xran_fh_tx_send_slot_BySymbol() and xran_fh_rx_read_slot_BySymbol()
This MR handles
- Fix FFT size for xran_fh_tx_send_slot_BySymbol() and

Create Debian and Redhat packages with CPack
Use CPack in CMakelists in order to create packages, creation command is
available in build_oai script and options description is available in
packages.md
Packages must have a name, a version, a section, an architecture, a maintainer, a description (long and summary), dependencies
Shared libraries must be stripped, have soversion, version (debug symbols are found in separate packages), since MODULE is used instead of SHARED it works as a plugin library which is opened using dlopen-like functionality, see: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/add_library.html
Packages must have postin and postun scripts
Since it is not recommended to modify CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS, cmake's path variables are used : https://discourse.cmake.org/t/how-do-i-replace-the-compiler-options-for-one-target/7815/5
NGAP: improve error handling in RRCReconfiguration from Handover Command decoding
This MR refactors doRRCReconfiguration_from_HandoverCommand for consistency and
safety, and enables NGAP Handover Cancel encoding/decoding.
- Refactored doRRCReconfiguration_from_HandoverCommand function:
- Changed signature to return byte_array_t instead of taking a buffer parameter
- Prevents buffer overflow by auto-sizing memory with uper_encode_to_new_buffer
- Input validation
- HandoverCommand structure validation
- Error handling and cleanup for encode/decode failures
- ASN.1 structure cleanup on all error paths
- Updated caller in rrc_gNB_NGAP.c: use new byte_array_t return signature,
added buffer cleanup with free_byte_array(), sends Handover Cancel to AMF on
decoding failure (source gNB)
- Improved error logging
- NGAP Handover Cancel encoding/decoding support
- Added missing Handover Cancel ack case handler for
NGAP_ProcedureCode_id_HandoverCancel in ngap_gNB_decode_initiating_message()
to decode and log incoming Handover Cancel Ack message
- Added NGAP_ProcedureCode_id_HandoverCancel to the list of supported
initiating message procedure codes in ngap_gNB_encode_initiating() allowing
the gNB to encode and send Handover Cancel messages
Note: The Handover Cancel procedure is already implemented elsewhere in the NGAP
stack; these changes complete support by ensuring the procedure code is
recognized in both encoder and decoder.
Closes#1043
The CN team would like to test the ethernet PDU session capabilities of
the UPF. Install arping in the UE by default for ubuntu to help them
test the PDU session by pinging over ARP.
Look up the index of a PDU session in the list of PDU sessions upon
accept to determine if the PDU session is the default (first PDU
session) or not. If it is the default, it will not append a suffix to
the interface name (oaitun_ueY), otherwise append the PDU session ID
(e.g., for 5: oaitun_ueYp5).
Use the new PDU session configuration functionality of the parent
commit. It is now possible to request multiple PDU sessions, and to
request specific PDU session types. While the new uicc0.pdu_sessions is
preferred, it is still possible to use the "legacy"
uicc0.dnn/nssai_sst/nssai_sd.
The old parameters --default-pdu-id and --extra-pdu-id are not allowed
anymore, as it is possible to manually define this in the UE
configuration. Correspondingly, fix the use of those options, where
applicable.
Note: since the default_pdu_id is changed to -1, all interface names
will have pX to interface names appended (oaitun_ue1pX). The next commit
will correct this.
When writing dummy data or reading to trash, we don't need to allocate data buffers for each antenna.
We can allocate just for one antenna and use this buffer for each antenna.
This feature shall allow in future to simulate an arbitratry number of UEs connected to an other arbitrary number of cells.
Therefore each RF-frontend (also called RU) needs to be configured for one specific cell.
In case of handover of a UE from one cell to another cell, it needs to switch RUs accordingly (TODO).
There has to be a 1-to-1 mapping between RUs and cells.
Each UE will be assigned to one of the defined cells.
Initially all UEs are assigned to cell 0.
UE support to send CSI report on PUSCH
Earlier work on UCI on PUSCH implemented only ACK/NACK. This MR extends that
to send CSI report too.
This branch is verified with MATLAB implementation for multiplexing CSI part 1
and part 2 on PUSCH. It is also verified with srsRAN gNB which successfully
decodes CSI part 1 on PUSCH.
Fix RSRP overflow
If UE L1 measure an RSRP = 0 it would report to L2 and RSRP value of -INT_MAX
dBm causing overflow in the qsort to determine the best RSRPs
The global variable rx_gain_off was always 0.0, as it was not even modified by the NR UE command line parameter --ue-rxgain-off.
That command line parameter modified only a parameter in the struct nrUE_params_t, which was not used at all and is removed in this commit, too.
Also, the global variable rx_gain_off was just added to rx_total_gain_dB and subtracted from it again in nr_rf_card_config_gain().
So we simplify that function slightly, too.
Clear memory in shm_td_iq_channel after RX
Clear memory in shm_td_iq_channel after RX. This prevents the IQ
from being read twice. This can happen if the application crashes
and will keep the other side reading historical IQ samples.
Update vrtsim timing job thread
List of changes:
- avoid calculating accumulated rounding error by calculating absolute
sample index based on CLOCK_REALTIME every time.
- use threadCreate instead of plain pthread_create which assigns a unique
thread name and simplifies debugging
Use nr_get_csi_measurements() function to get CSI report for PUCCH and
UCI on PUSCH.
Harmonize filling csi report for UCI on PUSCH for periodic and aperiodic
CSI reports.
