Guido Casati 337cc4bbe7 Doc: update RRC documentation with new multi-cell architecture
Expand RRC developer and usage documentation to match the current
multi-cell design with separate DU and cell management.

- rrc-dev.md: Document DU and cell data structures and key functions
  (get_du_by_assoc_id, get_cell_by_cell_id, rrc_add_cell_to_du, etc.);
  add DU and cell lifecycle (F1 Setup, config update, disconnection)
  and UE cell association (serving cells, PCell/SCells) with sequence
  diagrams; add handover and cell association update flow; update UE
  context description.
- rrc-usage.md: Update DU/cell list output format and description
  (e.g. integrated DU-CU) and multi-cell per DU wording.

How to get support from the OAI Community

You can ask your question on the mailing lists.

Your email should contain below information:

  • A clear subject in your email.
  • For all the queries there should be [Query] in the subject of the email and for problems there should be [Problem].
  • In case of a problem, add a small description.
  • Do not share any photos unless you want to share a diagram.
  • OAI gNB/DU/CU/CU-CP/CU-UP configuration file in .conf format only.
  • Logs of OAI gNB/DU/CU/CU-CP/CU-UP in .log or .txt format only.
  • In case your question is related to performance, include a small description of the machine (Operating System, Kernel version, CPU, RAM and networking card) and diagram of your testing environment.
  • Known/open issues are present on GitLab, so keep checking.

Always remember a structured email will help us understand your issues quickly.
