Add an API to allow out-of-order writes to a radio interface, unlike the
current interface.
this function is called in UE in this commit, even if the tx might
still be in order.
Later, i plan to improve UE pulti-threading, that will lead to out of
order tx. also, the gNB will benefit of this new function to replace
several specific pieces of code that reorder tx with over complex and
slow systems
For the initialization of the xran library (split 7.2), we need some
parameters such as PRACH or frame config. However, to date,
initialization of split at level 7 use the split 8 openair0_config
structure, which does not have the necessary information.
Hence, add a single structure that contains that information.
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
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.
