This requires some updates to the nFAPI code as well.
We also have declared the def_dci_rel15 extern variable
consistently throughout the code.
In this commit, the gNB is still crashing. However, it seems
that the NSA UE is sending the proper responses back, but there
some sort of incorrect management of the def_dci_pdu_rel15
variable. If we memset this array to 0, we can see incorrect
0 assignments to elements of the UCI indications. Hopefully
fixing this issue will result in less gNB crashes.
How? Well, we had to properly allocate the
ul_config_req. We also had to update the
ue_get_rach function. There were several
places where the functionality would check
for a particular mode (ra, sa, phy_test, etc).
In some of these places we had to add NSA mode.
In the VNF, they start the scheduler after 3 sec,
this is sort of a hack, might want to revisit.
This commit also includes removal of printfs.
1. Prototype of nr indication functions were updated.
2. nr_rx_indication name changed to nr_rx_data_indication
3. Added other logs and assert conditions that were gone away from merge.
4. pnf files were not touched.
5. To be sync with original nfapi branch, the following file was checkout from eurocom-nfapi_nr_arch_mod
nfapi/open-nFAPI/vnf/public_inc/nfapi_vnf_interface.h
At this point we are successfully able to build.
Additionally, we can run the scenario,
however, it does not pass. It seems that the gNB
is not connecting to the proxy correctly. Just
wanted to push the progress so far. FYI, the items
that had to be changed to correct the linking issues
were the following:
- mac_rrc_data_ind_ue vs. nr_mac_rrc_data_ind_ue
- rrc_data_req vs. nr_rrc_data_req
- mac_rrc_data_req_ue vs. nr_mac_rrc_data_req_ue
- rrc_data_req_ue vs. rrc_data_req_nr_ue
- rrc_data_req vs. nr_rrc_data_req
The listed functions should be declard in the LTE/NR
UE directory depending on the functionality. Several
were mixed. i.e.: LTE functions being called in NR UE.
Also, removing siWindowLength, siWindowLength_int,
SIBType, SIBPeriod, and siPeriod_int from the NR UE RRC.
These variable were not used in the NR UE and are defined
for LTE only.
Lastly, in the NR_IF_Module.c of the NR UE, the global
variable def_dci_pdu_rel15 is not accessible. Need to
revisit this. For not it is commented out.
1. If VNF is slower than PNF, next scheduling will be done after resync.
2. If VNF is unstable in slot progress, next scheduling will be done in next stable status.
3. SFN/SLOT indications are queued in nrUE.
4. get_queue is used instead of unquque for FIFO operation.
Most notably, nfapi_rx_indication_pdu_t.data type is changed from
`uint8_t*` to `uint8_t[]`. Also, renamed from `data` to
`rx_ind_data` to make it easier to find.
This commit contains the changes to the OAI code in
the NR UE and in nFAPI.
- Filling crc_ind for msg3
- Updating pack/unpack of CRC_ind
- Creating phy abstraction CRC_ind handling in VNF
- Removal of old comments
- Only sending on RACH in phy_stub
- Calling nr_msg3_transmitted in scheduler for NSA mode
Also updated the NR nFAPI for properly packing
and unpacking the ra_indication. Lastly, added
the functionality for calling the callback RX_ind
functions in the VNF. The RX_IND PDU is recevied
as NULL in the gNB so need to investigate how to
properly pack and unpack the *pdu in the RX_ind.
The fix added in this commit may not be correct and
should be reviewed by Eurecom. For now we set the
future frame based on the PRACH recevied frame + 1.
Also fixed the copying of RACH ind into UL_INFO global.
RAR is being passed to NR UE.
Also fixed a few bugs in nr-nFAPI:
- Push16->push8 fix in packing of RACH
- Allocating memory for pdu_list and preamble_list in unpack
- Properly indexing through both lists during unpack
- Created new nr_rach handling function
