- neighbour_config.conf file includes neighbour and measurement related parameters
Neighbour List:
- nr_cellid: the identity of existing cell who has neighbour
- neighbour_cell_configuration(list): includes the identity parameters
of the neighbour cell such:
- gNBID (incase of N2 Handover / to be identified from AMF)
- nr_cell_id (target gNB needs to consider)
- physical_cellId (needed for measurement reporting)
- absoluteFrequencySSB (needed for measurement reporting)
- subcarrierSpacing (needed for measurement reporting)
- plmn / tracking area code (incase of N2 Handover / needed for AMF
to identify / allow HO)
NR Measurement Configuration
- Periodical
- enable (default is 0, 1 enables the reporting)
- includeBeamMeasurements, maxNrOfRS_IndexesToReport (configurable
reporting parameters)
- A2
- enable (default is 0, 1 enables the reporting)
- threshold , timeToTrigger (configurable reporting parameters)
- A3
- cell_id (the nr_cellid of neighbour cell. So this A3 parameters
will be used for the neighbour
- [-1] means default. so it can be applied to any neighbour if
there is no specific config
- Neighbour specific A3 Threshold can be used or default can be
selected depending to the neighbour planning
- The neighbour-config.conf specifies, apply default A3 for
neighbours 3 and 4 | apply specific one for neighbour 2
- offset, hysteresis, timeToTrigger (configurable reporting parameters)
the neighbour_config.conf can be included in the gNB.conf file. Example
is given: gnb.sa.band78.106prb.rfsim.neighbour.conf
A sequence array container is used for neighbour cell configuration. RRC
structure has this container. A Measurement configuration structure is
defined. This structure has Periodical / A2 Event structures and also a
sequence container for A3 Event List.
These structures are filled during the initialization. While F1 Setup
Response is coming from DU to CU, the intra frequency / inter frequency
neighbour decision is given for the existing cell. Also new neighbours
could be added here if needed.

38.321 6.1.3.1 says: "The size of the RLC headers and MAC subheaders are
not considered in the buffer size computation" [for BSR]. However, prior
to this commit, we take the size signaled of the BSR and schedule the UE
with that amount of data, making it impossible for the UE to transmit
all its data at once (because it is the size signaled + headers).
In this commit, over-estimate the buffer status size. As we cannot know
the exact number and size of headers, we simply use "BSR size + n", as
done in function overestim_bsr_index().
* nb_re_pdsch is directly linked to nb_rb_pdsch, if the latter is 0 the
former is also 0
* compute average channel level only when number of RE for PDSCH is not 0
the average channel level will be set to 0 otherwise
* Added a log message to handle this special case, which is consequence
of other issues in the RX chain
* with this commit, the inconsistency in the RX chain will be handled
in later in nr_ue_pdsch_procedures with a demodulation failure
other minor changes:
* Improved clarity by using NR_NB_SC_PER_RB instead of hard-coded value 12 in nb of RBs calculation
* cleaned up unused variable and outdated comments

It can happen that in the current DL slot, we cannot send an allocation
for Msg3 in a later UL slot. Up to this commit, MAC printed a warning.
However, this is not really a warning, as it will likely work in the
next or a later slot. So demote this to debug.
The starting point was the function do_NR_DLInformationTransfer() which
may deal with more than 256 bytes.
Then why not cleanup all the functions in the same file.
(And do a bit of formattting fixing while we're here.)
Then cleanup the callers of those functions.
Then, because of do_SIB23_NR() let's also cleanup in some
structures.
Not all the codebase was cleaned up, there surely remain some uint8_t
(and char/short/uint16_t) which are wrong.
In some pipelines, it happens that iperf3 is hanging on 100% CPU load.
In these cases, a simple TERM signal does not seem to be enough to kill
it; KILL is necessary.
While e.g., RemoteCmd's driver paramiko has a timeout command, the
documentation [1] is not really clear how it is trying to stop commands.
Since it effectively does not stop, we have to assume it is only sending
TERM.
To remedy this, use the timeout command to start iperf3. We use option
-v for diagnose timeouts on stderr, and send KILL after an additional 3
seconds (-k3) if TERM does not succeed. The timeout is sent to the same
duration as the overall iperf timeout.

make sure the SSB is offset by 4 PRBs from the BW start.
Therefore, the ARFCN for the SSB center must be offset by 14 PRB from the ARFCN for the BW start.
