After having removed eth_params_t from all L2/L3 files, we can reduce
the scope of common_lib.h, and remove the include from many files.

Remove the \file directive, as it is always superfluous because the
current file is implicit [1]:

Author names and e-mails are not relevant for us: it can always be

Eurecom code has been contributed and was under OAI PL v1.0/v1.1.
For the cpack package contact: put generic email address that is
independent of an individual and that will remain reachable.

Hide normal table initialization of Ziggurat generator from outside to
force the usage of randominit() for RNG initialization. In this step,
remove the randominit() seed parameter and only rely on OAI_RNGSEED for
a consistent RNG initialization, as this parameter was used differently
("0" as fixed number or to force a random seed).
Now, only use OAI_RNGSEED env variable to force the usage of a fixed
seed.
Reimplement nFAPI message exchange between L1 and L2 following the
changes in parent commit removing msgDataTx.
Avoid direct calls and use NR_IF_module fptrs to avoid linking problems.
allowing to remove some function definitions that are not needed.
- Remove rb_id parameter from nr_sdap_tx_entity() function signature
- Update tx_entity function pointer
- Remove rb_id parameter from sdap_data_req() function signature
- Remove unused rb_id variable from sdap_tun_read_thread
The rb_id parameter was redundant since SDAP determines DRB ID
from QFI mapping via entity->qfi2drb_map(entity, qfi). This
simplifies the interface.
RF emulator and improvements of the timers
RF emulator:
Add an RF library emulating a real device without the need of a real
device. This is thought to enable using phy-test without requiring a
radio device or channel simulation. The library synchronizes on the
real time clock, drops TX and generate noise on RX. Noise generation
can be disabled and the noise level configured.
Timers improvements:
- Fix standard deviation for merged timers
- Add display of ULSCH decoding timers
- Add decoding timer in AAL
4G/5G FAPI code is located in the same file. Since 5G code calls 5G
specific functions, these functions need to be defined in 4G.
The solution would be to separate the FAPI changes into 4G and 5G.
This commit removes many logs that just show memory addresses, indices,
etc., which, I presume, do not mean anything to the "average user" and
developers alike.
Before this commit, the following will trigger a complete rebuild:
- create another git name (git checkout -b test)
- run cmake again manually (cmake ..)
- run ninja again
The top-level CMakeLists.txt uses add_definitions() to add git
information to all targets; if some git information changes, this will
mark all command lines as dirty, triggering the build.
There is an easy solution: instead of passing this information on the
command line, pass it in a header. This commit uses configure_file() to
generate a file oai_version.h in the build directory with the same
information. Various sources files, e.g., main executables, use this to
output the same information as before. It is then also not necessary to
use header guards, as cmake takes care to create this file.
If cmake is re-run, it will update the header, and trigger only files
including this header will be rebuilt (which can be shown with the above
stpes). The information passed is the same as before, and updates the
information when the old method would have updated it.
Remove netlink code, and the PDCP_USE_NETLINK macro, as there is no
known use, it makes the code more complicated, and is simply "technical
debt".
In 4G PDCP, a subtle change has been introduced, in pdcp_module_init()
of pdcp.c. Looking at the diff of this commit, it can be seen that there
is now a new "else-if (ENB_NAS_USE_TUN_W_MBMS_BIT)" branch that is under
what was the "if (PDCP_USE_NETLINK)" branch, while the code fragment was
actually inside the "else" branch of PDCP_USE_NETLINK. This seems to be
necessary: previously, if we did not use noS1 mode and we don't use any
TUN (i.e., the eNB), the else block would set up this interface. It is
important that this interface is brought up, because if we omit it,
RFsim will not work. It seems to me that this interface will regularly
create some traffic; without it, RFsim will be blocked, and the UE
cannot connect.
In short, it seems to be important to have the MBMS interface, which
injects traffic in the RFsim side, which will unblock RFsim. The change
in pdcp_module_init() preserves the total changes of the if-else
(PDCP_USE_NETLINK).
Remove function pointers that were used in the past to implement the
F1(-U) interface in 4G, i.e., to have different functions to handle
split/monolithic operations. As we don't have F1 in 4G anymore (see
commit 9dc2282249), we don't need the
function pointers anymore.
On that occasion, rename the 5G functions by prepending nr_ to them;
this allows to refactor the interface in 5G further (which is not the
focus of this changeset).
set_latency_target() attempts to set keep "low latency" by
- writing a specific latency to /dev/cpu_dma_latency
- setting manually the minimum CPU processor frequency to be the maximum
There is no functionality to undo this after stopping the softmodem(s),
and most users are probably not even aware that OAI does this. It is
generally preferable to set this beforehand using a governor or by
disabling sleep states (as outlined in the tutorial, and in a follow-up
commit in the performance tuning docs).
The previous mlockall() call, to lock memory to RAM, is retained in a
new function. There were additional mlockall() calls, which have been
replaced with lock_memory_to_ram(), where necessary.
- move following radios: AW2S, BladeRF, IRIS, LMSSDR, RFsimulator, USRP
- move following transports: Ethernet, benetel4g, benetel5g
- for each: create independent cmake variable to switch compilation
on/off, in order: OAI_AW2S, OAI_BLADERF, OAI_IRIS, OAI_LMSSDR,
OAI_SIMU, OAI_USRP, OAI_ETHERNET, OAI_BENETEL4G, OAI_BENETEL5G
- Remove RF_BOARD variable, allows to compile multiple boards at once
- where applicable: remove USERSPACE/LIB in path, i.e., move files up to
directories, as all are userspace libraries
Note that with the above, it is now mandatory to enable a radio
implementation before compiling it, e.g., for USRP:
./build_oai -w USRP
cmake .. -DOAI_USRP=ON && ninja oai_usrpdevif
In the UE, we wish to handle ^C in the UE to send a message before
terminating, so we allow custom wait handlers to implement such
functionality. Use itti_wait_tasks_unblock() to unblock
itti_wait_tasks_end().
Also, implement itti_wait_tasks_end() using semaphores, as signals are
not async-signal-safe (and therefore should not be used in a signal
handler).
Creates function that have nr_pdcp_ prepended to their name, and change
the signature of some functions for the 5G PDCP:
- nr_pdcp_layer_init()
- nr_pdcp_data_req()
- nr_pdcp_remove_UE()
- nr_pdcp_config_set_security()
- nr_pdcp_remove_UE()
- Make separate functions for nr_pdcp_data_req_srb/drb()
The simulators have been changed: due to linker errors that would arise
otherwise, a lot of functions are defined in them to avoid such errors.
Some functions are also defined in header files; in this commit, we
define most functoins in nr_dummy_functions.c, which is compiled in, not
by including the C file, but by adding it to the target in
CMakeLists.txt
- nr_dlsim+nr_ulsim need NR_IF_Module_init(), so it cannot be in
nr_dummy_functions, but the others need it
- Link correcr NR_IF_Module_init() into these simulators, and reduce
overall link list
- Correctly link remaining simulators
