When doing analogue beamforming, the beam ID for a pre-defined beam
table is passed directly to RU and there is no need to store the beam
table in PHY.
Update documenation for handover
Update documentation for handover to include the changes that were made after
upgrading the CI handover setup (attenuator, USRPs synchronization)
NR UE: calculate TA based on SIB19 information in NTN mode, if autonomous TA is not enabled
To achieve the goal, the hyper frame number (HFN) is introduced at the NR UE
PHY, MAC and RRC layers.
Besides this, we also implemented an orbit propagation to improve the accuracy
of N_UE_TA_adj, and a fix to keep the N_TA from RAR and MAC CE.

Fixes for BWP switching
This MR fixes some issues when performing BWP switching via
reconfiguration. It also adds a CI test for BWP switching. # Please
enter a commit message to explain why this merge is necessary,
Testing has revealed that if PDCP drops some packets, the scheduler
falls behind with handling Slot.indication. It could be that we don't
have enough cores, which was reduced previously (from total 8 -> 2).
Reincrease to four cores to have a bit more headroom.

Consistently use OAI_RNGSEED env variable for RNG
use OAI_RNGSEED env variable everywhere. Hide normal table
initialization of Ziggurat generator from outside. Fix atoi() to use
stroul()
Hide normal table initialization of Ziggurat generator from outside to
force the usage of randominit() for RNG initialization. In this step,
remove the randominit() seed parameter and only rely on OAI_RNGSEED for
a consistent RNG initialization, as this parameter was used differently
("0" as fixed number or to force a random seed).
Now, only use OAI_RNGSEED env variable to force the usage of a fixed
seed.
[FHI72 M-plane] Update the M-plane support to v16.01
- retrieve the additional hardware states (oper-state, admin-state,
availability-state) and update according to the received notifications
- properly configure MIMO mode if a RU supports
- update the yang models to v16.01
- tested with Benetel v1.4.1, and added an example run in the M-plane doc
Note: backwards compatible with M-plane v05.00
Also, memory leakages fixed cause by ru_session_list_t, and xml functions
xmlReadMemory() and xmlNodeGetContent().
Implementation of STOP exchange
This implements the STOP.request/indication for all 3 transport mechanisms, the
VNF will send the STOP.request to the PNF, indicating it will disconnect, and
await a STOP.indication from the PNF
The WLS VNF is reworked to be able to start before the PNF, by calling call
rte_eal_init and rte_dev_probe to determine if dpdk has been initialized
properly, before calling rte_eal_init in the intended process when it is
appropriate to do so
PDU Session Release
This MR implements end-to-end PDU Session Release functionality
according to 3GPP TS 38.413 and TS 38.331 specifications.
Reason for Change Previous implementation had incomplete and wrongly
places tunnel cleanup during PDU session release. UP cleanup shall be
done at CUUP, RRCReconfiguration shall be sent after retrieval of
updated CellGroupConfig from the DU. This implies F1 and E1 exchanges
during PDU session release procedure.
Major Changes:
1. RRC PDU Session Release: DRBs and PDU session teardown in NGAP PDU
Session Release Response callback
- Helper Functions: Introduced rm_pduSession,
find_drb_by_pdusession_id and rm_drbs() helpers to locate and clean
up DRBs linked to a specific PDU session
- Targeted Cleanup: RRC PDU Session and per-session DRB removal in
rrc_gNB_send_NGAP_PDUSESSION_RELEASE_RESPONSE()
- Status Cleanup: Removed unused PDU_SESSION_STATUS_RELEASED status
2. RRC PDU Session Release: Refactor
rrc_gNB_process_NGAP_PDUSESSION_RELEASE_COMMAND
- Any PDU session in the pdusession_release_params list that is
present in the RRC list can be set to release, regardless of its
status
- Function Signature Update: Updated function signature and other
minor changes
- Response Handling: rrc_gNB_send_NGAP_PDUSESSION_RELEASE_RESPONSE is
sent upon completion of RRCReconfiguration
3. RRC PDU Session Release: add missing procedures E1AP Integration:
- Populates E1AP Bearer Modification for each to be released session
- PDCP Enhancement: Added nr_pdcp_release_drbs() to remove all DRBs
linked to a given PDU session in CUUP
- GTP-U Cleanup: GTP tunnel teardown handled in CUUP
e1_bearer_context_modif() using correct F1 or N3 GTP instance
4. NR PDCP/GTP:
- Enhanced Tunnel Deletion Logic: Separate handling for N3 tunnels (1
per PDU session) and F1-U tunnels (1 per DRB)
- New PDCP API Function: Added nr_pdcp_get_drb_ids_for_pdusession()
function to retrieve all DRB IDs associated with a specific PDU
session
5. RRC PDU Session Release: F1AP-based UE Context Modification:
- Replaced direct RRC message transfer with F1AP UE Context
Modification Request for proper retrieval from DU
- Cell Group Configuration: handling of updated CellGroupConfig from
DU ensures DRB release at CU
6. Docs and testing:
- Added PDU session add/remove test cases to 25 PRB RFSIM pipeline
- Documentation: Added PDU Session Release sequence diagram
- Telnet Commands: Added ci command to trigger NGAP PDU Session
Release and ciUE command to trigger establishment of a new PDU
Session
7. Additional fixes:
- UE RLC Management: ensure release of RLC entities
- Unify NG delay control before calling the RRC NGAP handler, for both
Setup and Release
8. Code Cleanup: Cleaned up unused GTP teardown functions.
Closes#867
Reimplement nFAPI message exchange between L1 and L2 following the
changes in parent commit removing msgDataTx.
Avoid direct calls and use NR_IF_module fptrs to avoid linking problems.
allowing to remove some function definitions that are not needed.
Refactor DLSCH scheduler
Refactor the DLSCH post processor similarly to what has been done in
!3521 with the goal of saving an additional iteration through all UEs,
hopefully making the DLSCH scheduler faster.
It further includes changes to make working with and debugging multi-UE
operation easier:
- add some measurements in L1 (for total TX/RX time)
- a new option MACRLCs.[0].stats_max_ue to limit the number of UEs in
the periodic output (default: 8, 0=disable)
- avoid stack overflow in the MAC
- fix the writing of stats to nrMAC_stats.log and nrL1_stats.log when
the written output reduces by truncating the files
- avoid to schedule retransmission with 0 RBs.
The gNB will stop the periodical logging of UEs in MAC Info level after
a configurable number of UEs have been printed, by default 8.
Set it to 17 in some CI tests to ensure we still get all UEs for the
time being, as the CI might depend on this.
