- move following radios: AW2S, BladeRF, IRIS, LMSSDR, RFsimulator, USRP
- move following transports: Ethernet, benetel4g, benetel5g
- for each: create independent cmake variable to switch compilation
on/off, in order: OAI_AW2S, OAI_BLADERF, OAI_IRIS, OAI_LMSSDR,
OAI_SIMU, OAI_USRP, OAI_ETHERNET, OAI_BENETEL4G, OAI_BENETEL5G
- Remove RF_BOARD variable, allows to compile multiple boards at once
- where applicable: remove USERSPACE/LIB in path, i.e., move files up to
directories, as all are userspace libraries
Note that with the above, it is now mandatory to enable a radio
implementation before compiling it, e.g., for USRP:
./build_oai -w USRP
cmake .. -DOAI_USRP=ON && ninja oai_usrpdevif
1. Adding a "SL" frequency for Sidelink mode. The
importance of this variable is to ensure that
when we are in mode 1 (UE+UE+gNB), that the slot
configuration and frequencies do not overlap. This
SL frequency is important for rotation and allows
us to utilize the OFDM modulation and demodulation
functions that already exist in OAI.
2. Adding sl_mode to the command line for proper UE
deployment when in SL mode. sl_mode can be set to 0,
1, or 2. sl_mode 0 indicates no-Sidelink at all,
mode 1 is gNB, UE, and UE (3GPP defines mode numbers).
sl_mode 2 indicated UE to UE communications with no
gNB at all.
3. New functions for calculating the carrier frequency
for SL mode.
reorder_thread_disable we use the native message queue and L1_rx_thread instead of the thread-pool for the main L1 thread. There is a single TX thread (no slot parallelization)
For nr_DRB_preconfiguration() and fill_default_secondaryCellGroup(),
there is duplicated code to generate and RLC-BearerConfig, when calling
the existing get_DRB_RLC_BearerConfig() (with the right parameters)
yields a similar configuration (see exceptions below).
Differences:
- We do not support reestablishmentRLC, so we don't set it
- Set prioritisedBitrate to 8kbps instead of infinity (we don't
prioritize anything, anyway)
- bucketSizeDuration is 50ms instead of 100ms
This commit fixes a bug caused by global variables in the gNB_MAC_INST
structure used to transfer MAC scheduler's results to the PHY layer.
When using several threads in the PHY layer, it may happen that the
MAC scheduler is called a second time by the second PHY thread for the
next slot before the content of the global variables in the gNB_MAC_INST
structure used to store the result of the MAC scheduler for the current
slot have been consumed by the first thread, leading to unpredictable
results (all of them certainly wrong).
The solution is to introduce a small memory management module for the
interface between the PHY threads and the MAC scheduler. The MAC
scheduler now fills the data structures passed to it, and not a
global variable anymore. The PHY layer manages the structures and
ensures that no data is overwritten before being fully consumed by
the various threads of the PHY layer.
Some care has to be taken because several PHY threads will access the
same structures at the same time for a given slot (in read mode, so
it's okay). A mechanism of reference counting has thus been introduced.
Only one CC is supported. This restriction should not be too hard
to remove if/when needed. (The code before this commit does not seem
to work for more than one CC anyway.)
DL config as array in MAC
Run RX slot processing in Tpool thread
Fixed race in phy config
Changed mac_IF_mutex
Proc Tx: Lets wait for Proc Rx to get ACK/NACK
-(only on slots that carry ACK/NACK)
Fix problem with rfsim
Separated PDCCH and PDSCH decoding functions. Run PDCCH decoding in main UE_thread.
Fixed race in MAC dci config struct
needed for parallel processing of slots
Moved DLSCH transport block buffer to stack
rx_ind as static allocation
L2sim: Fixed calling of MAC sched in wrong slot
Fix DCI extract bug for RA procedure
For some (unclear) reason, nr-softmodem with aw2s device does not print
"Bye." when stopping it with control+c, which is problematic in the CI.
This little hack solves the problem.
(Maybe not the right solution, to be changed if needed.)
In the UE, we wish to handle ^C in the UE to send a message before
terminating, so we allow custom wait handlers to implement such
functionality. Use itti_wait_tasks_unblock() to unblock
itti_wait_tasks_end().
Also, implement itti_wait_tasks_end() using semaphores, as signals are
not async-signal-safe (and therefore should not be used in a signal
handler).
Creates function that have nr_pdcp_ prepended to their name, and change
the signature of some functions for the 5G PDCP:
- nr_pdcp_layer_init()
- nr_pdcp_data_req()
- nr_pdcp_remove_UE()
- nr_pdcp_config_set_security()
- nr_pdcp_remove_UE()
- Make separate functions for nr_pdcp_data_req_srb/drb()
