Better c style pss sss
there is a commit to simplify code for pss and sss detection
then a second commit to test a idea: detect SSS with a advantage for SSS
in phase with PSS
the code use a precomputed table of rotations: 16 steaps between -PI/3 and +PI/3
This commit replaces the precomputed table by in code computation.
This version improves code understanding, while it won't make any significant difference
Notably, remove asn_codecs_prim_xer.h from the list of files, triggering
problems when re-running ninja, because the "canonical OAI asn1c"
(https://github.com/mouse07410/asn1c, commit ID
940dd5fa9f3917913fd487b13dfddfacd0ded06e) does not generate it:
ninja explain: output openair2/XNAP/MESSAGES/asn_codecs_prim_xer.h doesn't exist
In this version, a couple of files are not generated, so remove them
from the list.
Also, leave the files in the order as shown by ls.

Bugfix: make longer telnet cmdfunc names
The maximum number of cmdfunc names is 20, which IMO is too low. Worse, if it's
longer, nothing will warn us because C will just fill the array to it's end
(without \0 at the end). To remedy this:
- Allow longer names till 64 bytes (I hit the previous limit of 20)
- Check that the name is within the length limit: if somebody wants a very long
name, the strnlen() will return the maximum length, hitting that assertion.
- When reading a command during runtime, allow the corresponding maximum length.
On that occasion, also increase total number of permitted cmdfuncs.
Use flat buffer for txdataF in gNB L1
This MR changes txdataF buffer format to hold freq domain data starting from
PRB0 instead of circular buffer that starts from PRB N/2. The motive is to
simplify RE mapping function in L1 and copying data to xran lib.
- Add num_ues and ue_id parameters for server and client configuration
- Implement ul combining and dl distribution to all ues
- Each ue uses dedicated antenna offsets based on ue_id
- Works with no-chanmod mode only and with uniform antenna dimensions across all ues

The original error was simply "failed to write to RF", which is not very
precise. Update with sample numbers for context, and add it in another
similar case for consistency.

At least writerProcessWaitingQueue() checks for the exact number of
samples written. In many other places, we check that the return is
non-zero.
The usrp-tx-write-thread functionality returned 0, which triggers
various problems. Return the number of samples, as in the "direct write"
case (if-block before else-block).

XNAP: Add encode/decode and unit tests for Xn Setup Request/Response/Failure
This MR adds complete support for the following in accordance with
3GPP TS 38.423 v16.2.0
- Add Xn Setup Request, Response, and Failure message type definitions
- Implement ASN.1 encode/decode for all Xn Setup messages
- Add equality checks and memory management helpers
- Create XNAP unit test infrastructure

Reduce number of mutex locking in MAC->RLC direction
Currently, the scheduler locks RLC for each operation. Concretely
- for RLC status indication (to get amount of bytes per LC), it locks per LC
- for RLC indication (UL traffic), it locks for each MAC SDU of which there can
be multiple in a TB
- for RLC data req (getting data from RLC to put into a transport block), it
locks for each LCID and PDU to get.
This can have a certain overhead, because we need to re-lock RLC multiple times
instead of once (per operation above). In this MR, rework the interfaces such
that it is possible to get all information/data in a single lock-unlock cycle,
which should also help with "spikes" of scheduler times (in some scenarios, it
seems the scheduler takes longer than 0.5ms, and while it's not only locking,
re-locking might contribute), and an increase of number of UEs (e.g., instead
of doing 3 * N UEs lock cycles for getting status of SRB1, SRB2, DRB1, we do
only N times). Concretely, for each UEs RLC status indication, we lock once,
only once per LCID when filling a TB (in particular for LCID 4, on high
throughput, it might be many times), and only once per UL TB (for the common
case of UL data).
Minor fixes include the increase of the Aerial VNF thread priority, and reducing
the maximum RLC indication size to reduce excessive computation (we can't have
1MB in one TB, it is too much).
Adds the API, which will always prepend a 3 byte header before writing a
PDU. This can be used to call less often into RLC, and avoid potential
locking.
The API is used at the gNB DLSCH scheduler. Also, this removes the
"overhead" calculation: since we fill the entire TB at once, RLC will
leave space for headers as necessary.

Added NTN-FR2 FDD bands defined in release 18 in Ka-band range
* NTN-FR2 bands 510, 511, 512 added. TS 38.101-5 v 18.9 defines these 3 FR2-FDD
bands for NTN operation.
* These bands are defined in Ka band range (17.3Ghz - 31Ghz).
* Tested using the added conf files using RFSIM and GEO configuration.
* There were some inconsistencies observed when testing with RFSimulator before UE
Syncs to the gNB in terms of samples being written for FR2 configurations. Once
the UE syncs, the inconsistencies disappear.
* this is the problem - UE writes incorrect number of samples and gNB complains
about getting samples in past
* The above inconsistencies were also fixed in this merge request.
* These commits solving above inconsistencies were removed from this MR and a
different MR was raised. MR with those commits: !3928.
So far txdataF buffer has DC RE as the first element. This was prefered
most likely to avoid memcpy before iFFT but comes with a small
complexity in RE mapping functions.
Instead, we use a flat buffer that holds freq domain data starting from
first negative SC. After resource mapping is done on all channels, each
OFDM symbol is shifted before iFFT so that the buffer start with DC RE.
This reduces complexity in mapping functions and later on when passing
beam IDs to 7.2 split RU especially when a beam is associated to
interleaved RB and/or REs.
There is already a memcpy in place to copy txdataF from gNB stuct to RU
struct. So this change does not introduce new memcpy.
Limit dl_DataToUL_ACK values to 15 as per standard
If min feedback time is high enough otherwise we might fail to encode/decode

remove xran_fh_tx_send_slot_BySymbol() and xran_fh_rx_read_slot_BySymbol()
We have separate functions ran_fh_tx_send_slot_BySymbol() and
xran_fh_rx_read_slot_BySymbol() for liteon. This MR is to remove those separate
functions.
Main author: Teodora Vladić
Co-author: Mario Joa-Ng
Changes:
xran_fh_tx_send_slot() is using if then else to handle per slot and per symbol
logic. xran_fh_rx_read_slot() is straightforward.
Testing:
- Liteon: Verified end-to-end.
- Benetel: (per slot without beam_id): Verified end-to-end.
- Microamp: (per slot with beam_id): Verified end-to-end. The branch
microamp_F_harmonize is used instead as microamp could not be run with develop
branch.
Even though the NR ARFCN uses a 15 kHz raster until 24250 MHz,
the ssb_offset_point_a is still scaled by 60 kHz for FR2.
So we need two different scaling factors.
NTN-FR2 bands 510, 511, 512 added.
TS 38.101-5 v 18.9 defines these 3 FR2-FDD bands for NTN operation.
These bands are defined in Ka band range (17.3Ghz - 31Ghz)

Some of them, because there are hundreds if not thousands. Warnings at compilation time can be enabled using -Wunused-parameter.
