Add check to vnf_nr_handle_param_response for when phy_info is not found
The WLS VNF is in charge of Enqueueing the used blocks after usage for transport, this is done by keeping track of all blocks used, and calling WLS_Enqueue for all of them upon receiving a SLOT.indication
The common library exposes functions for the PNF to return the received blocks to the VNF for it to call WLS_Enqueue on them.
This is done in order to ensure the Blocks are returned after processing, also preventing the Dequeueing of blocks that are still being used, i.e. the internal value is not -1
All saved blocks are to be enqueued at the reception of a SLOT.indication by the VNF
Additionally, the definition of NFAPI_MAX_PACKED_MESSAGE_SIZE was moved to nfapi_interface.h and removed from the other headers, this is done to allow to set the maximum message size when using WLS by only changing the value in one place
Fixup fapi_nr_message_header_unpack call in nfapi_hex_parser
[E2 agent] E2AP README update and OAI-FlexRIC CI pipeline improvements
- E2AP README - add OSC nearRT-RIC section; update with proper FlexRIC
links, and explanations on prerequisites, as well as for xApps
- OAI-FlexRIC CI - use separate containers for xApps
- add reference files for CU-UP/CU-CP
- add logging for KPM NSSAI condition
A number of radio-related RRC parameters, e.g., CellGroupConfig,
"originate" at the DU and are sent to the CU for forwarding to the UE
only. Similarly, there are additional parameters, e.g., RLC-BearerConfig
(part of CellGroupConfig), that originate at the DU.
Hence, the DU decides about these parameters, depending on the MAC state
and capabilities. To clarify this, move the existing
openair2/RRC/NR/nr_rrc_config.{c,h} => openair2/LAYER2/NR_MAC_gNB/nr_radio_config.{c,h}
So that developers know that while those are RRC parameters, they
originate at the DU.
In other words, the CU/RRC is not supposed to use any of these functions
in the RRC. Correspondingly, includes of this file have been cleaned up
(and when they are not necessary at the MAC as well).
Add physim tests into ctest framework
Convert physim testcases listed in
cmake_targets/autotests/test_case_list.xml into ctest. Note: Tests for
dlsim_tm4 are excluded, due to compilation issues.
CTest evaluates success based on return code: '0' = pass, non-zero =
fail. For some simulators, the return code is non-zero even when the
test is successful (as indicated by success messages in the test logs).
For some simulators, the return code is always '0'. This inconsistency
has been address in the first two commits of this MR.
To build and execute these tests:
- using cmake
cd openairinterface5g
mkdir build && cd build # you can also do that in cmake_targets/ran_build/build
cmake .. -GNinja -DENABLE_PHYSIM_TESTS=ON && ninja tests
ctest
- using build_oai: physim-related ctests are activated when PHY
simulators are built (use build_oai with '-P' or '--phy_simulators'
option)
cd openairinterface5g/cmake_targets
./build_oai --ninja --phy_simulators
cd ran_build/build
ctest
Link to newly created 4g and 5g RAN-Physim-Cluster pipelines:
- RAN-Physim-Cluster-4G: https://jenkins-oai.eurecom.fr/job/RAN-Physim-Cluster-4G/
- RAN-Physim-Cluster-5G: https://jenkins-oai.eurecom.fr/job/RAN-Physim-Cluster-5G/
Convert physim testcases defined in cmake_targets/autotests/test_case_list.xml
into CTest based tests. These test are activated when '-DENABLE_PHYSIM_TESTS=ON'
CMake flag is set.
Note: Tests for dlsim_tm4 are excluded, due to compilation issues.
CTest evaluates success based on return code: '0' = pass, non-zero = fail.
The following table outlines the physim executables, their success expressions
(`expr_true`), and the return codes for success (`ret_success`) and failure
(`ret_fail`). The `expr_true` is used in test_case_list.xml to check for test
results.
| test_exec | expr_true | ret_succ | ret_fail |
| ------------- | -------------- | --------------- | ----------------- |
| dlsim | passed | 0 | -1 |
| ulsim | passed | 0 (ret) | 1 (ret) |
| ldpctest | BLER 0.000000 | 0 | 1 |
| polartest | BLER= 0.000000 | 0 | 1 |
| nr_pbchsim | PBCH test OK | 0 | 1 |
| nr_dlsim | PDSCH test OK | 0 | 1 |
| smallblocktest| BLER= 0.000000 | 0 | 1 |
| nr_ulschsim | PUSCH test OK | 0 (n_errors) | n_errors |
| nr_pucchsim | PUCCH test OK | 0 | 1 |
| nr_ulsim | PUSCH test OK | 0 (ret) | -1 (ret) |
| nr_prachsim | PRACH test OK | 0 (prach_errors)| > 0 (prach_errors)|
| nr_psbchsim | PSBCH test OK | 0 (errors) | > 0 (errors) |
Add CMake flag "ENABLE_PHYSIM_TESTS=ON" when building OAI with "-P"
or "--phy_simulators" option. This allows physim-related ctest to
be executed from build directory.
Add dependency on coding lib for all 4G physims
The functions nr_generate_csi_rs() and nr_ue_generate_csi_rs() are
identical. This commit removes nr_ue_generate_csi_rs() and moves
nr_generate_csi_rs() to nr_phy_common_csirs.c so both gNB and UE can use
the same function.
As per spec, UE ID shall be reported when the message event configured by
the Event Trigger Style 1 is set to “RRC Setup Complete" message (UE attach), or
“Xn/NG Handover Request” or “F1 UE Context Setup Request” (Intra gNB Handover).
In OAI RAN, Xn/NG Handover is not yet supported, and therefore not added as the trigger event
in this commit.
Additionally, as the Event Trigger Definition Format 1 is common for both "RRC Message" and "UE ID",
E2 node will report the “RRC Setup Complete" message which the xApp will decode and print.

The above is necessary to not compile as many gNB dependencies into the
UE. RLC only uses GTP, which was satisfied by L2_NR, but that's not
necessary. However, only that change results in

nr-cuup previously satisfied these dependencies by depending on L2_NR
which links in e2_ran_func_du_cucp_cuup. However, the nr-cuup E2 RAN
functions are in e2_ran_func_cuup. In the latter, the file rc_data_ie.c
was missing (for cp_e2sm_rc_event_trigger), which in turn needs
e2sm_rc_ir_obj. Finally, find_if comes through alg.

NR build improvements
This MR is an attempt to improve compilation of NR softmodems by
removing some of NR-LTE cross-compilation (at the cost of a small dummy
file for nr-softmodem) and one small gNB-NRUE cross-compilation.
Miscelaneous improvements in PHY simulators
1: Add a SIGINT handler to NR PHY simulators
When using T2 virtual functions, it is important to properly stop DPDK
and free the device. Otherwise the virtual functions may be blocked and
a restart of the admin application is necessary.
If not carefully done, such kind of operation can lead to losing cores
to DPDK processes that cannot be stopped. This can lead to situations
where the machine is locked and can only be unlocked by a power cycle.
Always properly stopping DPDK and freeing the device reduces the risk of
such situation to happen.
Up to now, SIGINT was shutting down the PHY simulators without freeing
the device. This commit adds a signal handler to handle SIGINT in a way
that allow to properly free the device.
This feature is added to all the NR PHY simulators whether they use T2
or not in case it is now or later of any use.
2: Make nr_ulschsim functional
There were two issues that were making nr_ulschsim non functional:
1. The channel output was not copied to decoder input (llr array)
2. The test on decoding successful outcome was wrong
The result was that nr_ulschsim was succesfull whatever were its
arguments. This changeset fixes the two issues so that nr_ulschsim is
now functional.
1. Change the name of `openair1/SIMULATION/NR_PHY/nr_dummy_functions.c` into `openair1/SIMULATION/NR_PHY/nr_unitary_common.c` for naming coherence after adding the SIGINT handler which is not a dummy function.
2. Instead of being built once for every NR PHY simulators, the common functions source file is built once as an object and linked to each simulator.
NAS 5GS refactor
The goal of this MR is to reorganize the NR NAS code into:
- enc/dec library functions (5GS, 5GMM, 5GSM, NR_NAS_defs.h,
nr_fgs_nas_lib.c)
- handlers and callbacks (nr_nas_msg.c)
The following changes are introduced:
1. migrate 5GS enc/dec lib (5GMM and 5GSM) to a dedicated folder
2. add a nested CMakeLists structure
3. refactor NR NAS enc/dec functions
4. refactor NR NAS messages struct definitions
5. remove most of dependency from NAS LTE
6. further refactor of PDU Session Establishment Accept processing to
separate enc/dec from handling
7. made naming of 5GS definitions consistent whenever necessary
8. cleanup unused code
9. remove redundant struct definitions
Also:
1. fix decoding of AMF Set ID in 5G-S-TMSI UE identity
2. replace Byte_t directly with uint8_t
This commit is introducing the following macro changes:
(1) Migrate NAS 5GS lib files to a new 5GS subfolder in NR_UE
and organize NAS 5GS lib messages into 5GMM and 5GSM subfolders.
A nested CMake structure was implemented and CMakeLists.txt were
added whenever necessary. This is effectively separating 5GS
libraries from LTE libraries.
(2) In order to simplify the separation of 5GS libs from LTE libs,
remaining dependencies from NAS LTE (e.g. nas_ue_task.c, ue-idx-standalone)
were removed in the process
(3) ExtendedProtocolDiscriminator.c/.h and SpareHalfOctet.c/.h were deleted
and affected types were replaced with simple integer types
(4) Cleanup: unused definitions and libs (e.g. LIB_5GNAS_GNB)
were removed
(5) Update doc/Doxyfile
(6) clang-formatted the migrated files in the process
(7) Update includes of headers in affected files
Repair nFAPI in 5G
Add 5G nFAPI in OAI/Make it it work.
Many commits in this branch are basically bug fixes of things that don't work
properly, such as
- check for correct conditions (e.g. instance numbers in the RAN context)
- remove artificial limitation (e.g. only one PUCCH per TDD period in the PNF)
- improve performance (reduce big mallocs, make some static buffers such as a
global ring buffer for nFAPI messages in the PNF)
- fix bugs in nFAPI (e.g., increase maximum message size to ~64kB instead of
1500 bytes, because the latter is way too small for many TX_data.requests in
5G, and it will delay message arrival unduly)
- fix bugs in message enc/dec (e.g., handle FDD in config.request)
- adjust the L1 such that the condition "we run monolithic" is not necessery
(e.g., some message numbers in nFAPI struct where reset in MAC, instead of
L1, and this breaks when running the PNF)
There are instructions that explain how to set it up. Two CI tests have been
added, one with COTS UE and MIMO in DL+UL in TDD numerology 1 (30kHz), and a
second test with FDD mu=0 (15kHZ) in RFsimulator.
These were some old to-dos that have been addressed.
- test with COTS UE - 4x4 pipeline works good in DL, UL now also work
- test in RFsim
- make PNF status message
- make FDD in u0 work
The next commits refactor the rx handling of messages in the PNF. To
efficiently handle them, provide a "peek()" function that gives us the
frame/slot for which a message is destined. This allows to decide if a
message is on time and select a destination buffer, before unpacking it
completely, avoiding copies.
- Refactor SCTP Association Response Handling
- Unified function for both CU-CP and CU-UP handling
- CU-CP: Notifies RRC of E1 connection loss with CU-UP
- CU-UP: Initiates a new SCTP association request to regain E1 connection
- this fix will prevent issue #878 from happening
- Send list of PDU Session Resources to Failed Setup in the (PDU Session
Resource/Initial Context) Setup Response
- depending on different failure scenarios
- e.g. (#878) when No CU-UP is associated and still the CU-CP receives a PDU
Session Setup Request
- add relevant functions to handle NGAP Setup Response messages with failed
list of items
- this is an extra failure handling to make #878 is handled if it ever happens
again
- NGAP Cause Refactoring
- Refactor struct for NGAP cause group and value
- Add extended radio network cause enumeration values
- Refactor redundant code into a new NGAP cause encoding function
- Minor logging, function descriptions improvements
Closes#878
