When setting up bearer(s) through F1, the corresponding F1 message has
QoS fields for the DRB(s) to be set up, as well as for all flows
associated to this DRB. In this commit, set the DRB QoS field to be
equal to the first flow (it is unclear/unspecified how it should be set
up, based on the flows), which was not set before and therefore
contained unitialized data.
The F1 module uses this data, and in split mode, F1 message generation
failed due to uninitialized data.
We reuse RRC UE IDs at the RRC. Previous to this commit, we did not
release a UE at the CU-CP's PDCP (for SRBs). Thus, when reconnecting a
UE, the PDCP might not be in a good state, since we did not release the
previous PDCP UE context.
Position of SSB from Point A depends on offsetToPointA and Kssb, and for both, the unit for RB is expressed as 15KHz for FR1 and 60 KHz for FR2, so scaling must be 4 for FR2 frequencies
- Implement: Extend the F1 encoding and decoding with Qos
- Implement: E1 decoding for QoS
- Fix: Modify the UE_MODIFICATION_REQUEST_MSG towards DU to contain QoS info based on E1AP context response
- Fix: Modify the E1AP and F1AP message structures
- Fill the Qos configuration to send to MAC
A COTS UE is sending UE capabilities with accessStratumRelease "rel16"
which is not decoded by our RRC. Switching to RRC 16.13.0 lets our RRC
accept these capabilities (and as a positive side effect lets this
particular UE work nicely in NSA fr1).
Security part needs to be checked, may fail to work.
But if it fails, it was probably not working before either.
This commit also contains adding 'static' to nr_pdcp_entity_release()
and nr_pdcp_entity_delete() (it was too complicated to do a separate
commit for this).
We also update stats in free_rx_list() (again, too complicated for
a separate commit).
openair2/RRC/NR/rrc_gNB.c probably needs some more work, it is a
bit ugly to reestablish all the drbs without checking if they
exit. It will generate warnings at runtime. I didn't do it because
I don't know the proper way.
The function generateDRB() sets the value to 100ms but the function
rrc_gNB_process_NGAP_PDUSESSION_SETUP_REQ() sets it to 0ms.
So what happens is that the UE gets the value 100ms in the
RRC Reconfiguration but the gNB creates the PDCP entity with 0ms.
Let's create it with 100ms instead, to be aligned with how we configure
the UE.
And also avoid some PDCP warnings at runtime when some packets
are retransmitted but rejected because of the 0ms timer. This is
the warning:
[PDCP] discard NR PDU rcvd_count=68469, entity->rx_deliv 68481,sdu_in_list 0
This is just a hotfix. A real solution is to have the RB creation in
only one place. And we should also have those parameters configurable.
Work for later.
Multiple DUs host cells, whose cell ID cannot match (to identify them
uniquely). Hence, don't check for equality with CU, because otherwise,
we can never connect multiple DUs.
An assoc_id of 0 is used to mark UEs whose DU is "offline" (not
connected). In this patch, if a DU disconnects, we go through all UEs
and set their assoc_id to 0 if they belong to a UE that just went
offline.
