RRC fixes (#225)
- Hardens NR RRC re-establishment handling on the gNB and UE:
re-establishment requests with invalid PCI/C-RNTI or incomplete UE
context are rejected or fall back to RRCSetup per TS 38.33.
- Fixes an invalid post-release connected state after PDU session
teardown
- Stops gNB process aborts when a UE sends spare RRC establishment-cause
values.
- Fix RRCSetup fallback: the UE MAC layer is reset before bearer
teardown on RRCSetup fallback to avoid scheduler use of released RLC
entities.

NGAP Path Switch Request: add encode and ITTI support
- Add a case in TASK_NGAP to support ITTI message from RRC to NGAP
- Add Path Switch Request message type definitions
- Implement encoder for Path Switch Request (3GPP TS 38.413v16.2.0
§9.2.3.8)

Notes:
- Added a case NGAP_PATH_SWITCH_REQ in task_ngap to support ITTI message
from RRC, and this will be allocated at
- RRC when the target gNB receives the RRC complete message from the UE
during Xn handover.
- OAI CN5G does not support any of the NGAP path switch procedures
(request, ack, and failure) as of today to test Xn Handover.
- We tested the procedures in an E2E setup at IISc with two gNBs in
E1+F1+7.2x split containing the Xn handover code and connected to the
same 5G core (used Open5GS & Aether-OnRamp separately), and also did
not observe any Path Switch Failure.
- The implementation of Path Switch Failure at OAI RAN will be done
along with the implementation of Path Switch procedures in OAI CN5G
once the XNAP integration in OAI RAN is complete.

UE paging can recreate the AS-side SDAP entity while NAS still keeps the
PDU session established. Per TS 38.304 clause 7.1 and TS 24.501 clauses
5.6.2.2.1,5.6.1.2 paging/service request restores user-plane resources
for an established PDU session, it does not imply deleting the UE IP/TUN
interface.
Deleting the UE TUN with SDAP entity teardown breaks user-plane continuity
after re-attach. We need SDAP entity lifetime and UE TUN lifetime to be
decoupled. This commit keeps a UE/PDU-session TUN registry outside the
SDAP entity lifetime. When a UE SDAP entity is recreated, reattach it
to the preserved TUN socket and restart the reader thread. On first PDU
session setup, NAS registers the TUN before attaching the reader.
The sequence is the following: (1) NAS register the iface
(2) sdap entity attaches to the iface (3) UE goes IDLE, SDAP
entity is destroyed, iface is deatched and brought down (4)
UE Service Request, SDAP entity is created (5) iface reattaches
to the SDAP entity and is brought up
UE reattach assumes the PDU session TUN interface was registered
before the SDAP entity is recreated.
DL/UL data is intentionally dropped when SDAP is not yet attached
or QFI is unavailable, rather than queued in this layer.
Changes:
- `nr_sdap.c`: keep a UE/PDU-session TUN registry, duplicate the stored
socket into each SDAP entity, and add attach/detach/destroy helpers.
- `nr_sdap_entity.c`: detach SDAP entities from their TUN reader on
deletion, preserve UE TUN interfaces across idle cleanup, and destroy
gNB TUN interfaces when the gNB entity is removed. Drop downlink SDUs
if the UE SDAP entity is not attached to a TUN socket yet.
- `openair3/NAS/NR_UE/nr_nas_msg.c`: set QFI before UE TUN creation so
first attach can pick up cached QFI.
- `common/utils/tuntap_if.c`: add `tuntap_set_up`/`tuntap_set_down` helpers

Without explicit casts, each buf byte was promoted to a 32-bit signed
int before shifting. For NR Cell Identity (36-bit, per 3GPP TS 38.423
§9.2.2.9), this causes two problems:
- Shifting buf[0] left by 28 can push bits into or past the sign bit,
producing undefined/implementation-defined behavior.
- The 32-bit intermediate result is too narrow to hold a 36-bit value,
causing silent truncation before the OR-reduction.
Fix by casting each byte to uint64_t prior to the shift, ensuring all
intermediate expressions are evaluated in a 64-bit unsigned domain and
all 36 bits are preserved without overflow.
Decode the FGC NAS message container length from the encoded 2-octet
field before validating and copying the payload. This matches TS
24.501, where the NAS message container is a type 6 TLV and its length
is carried in octets 2-3.
Changes:
- add `<arpa/inet.h>` for `ntohs`
- change `ielen` from `uint8_t` to `uint16_t` in
`decode_fgc_nas_message_container()`

This commit extends the PDU Session Resource Modify Request handling (within
PDU Session Modify) to fully support QoS Flow add/modify and release operations
(3GPP TS 38.413 section 9.3.4.3) via the Transfer IE. This is propagated to
RRC which performs PDU Session update, which occurs upon PDU Session Modify.
Refactoring was necessary since type `pdusession_transfer_t` and
`pdusession_resource_item_t` both for setup, were inaccurately used for the modify procedure.
The implementation adds proper type definitions, decoding logic,
and error handling for QoS flow management during PDU session modification transfer,
namely:
- Adds QoS add/modify and release lists to the NGAP Modify Request Transfer type
- Introduces QoS Flow With Cause IE
- Decode new IEs and propagate QoS changes to RRC session state
NGAP PDU Session Modify Request Transfer:
- Add qos_flow_to_release_t structure to represent QoS Flow to Release Items IE
with QFI and release cause (per 3GPP TS 38.413 section 9.3.1.13)
- Introduce pdusession_mod_req_transfer_t structure to properly represent
PDU Session Resource Modify Request Transfer IEs:
* QoS Flow Add or Modify Request List (mandatory)
* QoS Flow to Release List (optional)
- Add pdusession_resource_mod_item_t structure for PDU Session Resource
Modify Request Items, replacing pdusession_resource_item_t, which is for setup
- Update ngap_pdusession_modify_req_t to use the new type-specific structure
- Refactor decodePDUSessionResourceModify() to return
pdusession_mod_req_transfer_t instead of pdusession_transfer_t
- Implement proper decoding of QosFlowAddOrModifyRequestList IE
- Add decoding support for QosFlowToReleaseList (QosFlowListWithCause) IE:
* Extract QFI and cause for each QoS flow to be released
- Improve error handling throughout
ngap_msg_includes.h:
- Add includes for NGAP_QosFlowListWithCause.h and
NGAP_QosFlowWithCauseItem.h to support QoS flow release decoding
NGAP/RRC:
- Update nr_rrc_update_pdusession() function signature to accept
pdusession_resource_mod_item_t instead of pdusession_resource_item_t
- Remove references to unnecessary pdu_session_type and n3_incoming
fields that are not part of the Modify Request Transfer structure
- Update QoS flow update logic to use nb_qos_to_add_modify and
qos_to_add_modify fields from the new transfer structure
This implementation aligns NGAP with 3GPP TS 38.413 specifications
and provides a foundation for handling QoS flow modifications and releases
during PDU session resource modification procedures.

Refactor GTP-U tunnel and send APIs so QFI is handled when sending packets,
not stored in tunnel creation state. Update SDAP and CU-UP integration to
use PDU-session keyed N3 mappings and explicit QFI-marked sends.
This commit clarifies layering ownership: GTP-U stays transport-only (TEID
lookup, decapsulation, extension parsing, callback dispatch), while SDAP
owns QoS semantics (QFI handling, QoS-flow-to-DRB policy, default DRB behavior,
and mapping updates); GTP-U does not perform runtime QFI-to-DRB mapping or
synthesize QFI.
Changes:
- remove `outgoing_qfi` from `gtpv1u_gnb_create_tunnel_req_t` and stop storing
QFI as tunnel creation metadata; `newGtpuCreateTunnel(...)` now carries only
transport/tunnel identity parameters (incoming_bearer_id, outgoing_bearer_id,
outgoing_teid, remote address, callbacks)
- add `gtpv1uSendDirectWithQFI()` and pass QFI into `_gtpv1uSendDirect`
to build UL PDU Session Container extensions
- shift QFI handling from tunnel provisioning to per-packet TX APIs: QFI is passed
explicitly only when sending (`gtpv1uSendDirectWithQFI(...)`) and is absent from
non-SDAP/F1 sends (`gtpv1uSendDirect(...)`)
- align N3 tunnel request semantics with session-level keys by setting incoming_rb_id
to PDU session ID on N3 paths, while F1 paths keep DRB ID
- keep `gtpv1uSendDirect()` and `gtpv1uSendDirectWithNRUSeqNum()` on
`NO_QFI`, and enforce non-SDAP RX callback path only when QFI is absent
- update `nr_sdap_rx_entity` to extract/validate QFI from SDAP UL headers,
send UL data with `gtpv1uSendDirectWithQFI`, and use non-QFI send when
SDAP header is disabled
- add disabled-SDAP safety checks in SDAP entity setup/mapping to enforce
single-DRB and single-flow constraints per PDU session
- extend `test_gtp.cpp` with a `multi_qos_flows` scenario and QFI-aware send calls
- update `nr-cuup-load-test.c` bearer setup fields and tunnel creation calls
to match the new API
- update tests/nr-cuup/nr-cuup-load-test.c to set explicit PDU session and
QoS/SDAP parameters (sessionType, qosFlows[0], SDAP header flags), and to
migrate both N3 and F1 tunnel creation calls to the new newGtpuCreateTunnel(...)

- Extract GBR information from NGAP_QosFlowLevelQosParameters in fill_qos()
- Add NGAP_GBR-QosInformation.h include to ngap_msg_includes.h
GBR information is optional in NGAP and is only present for GBR flows
(5QI < 5 for NonDynamic5QI, or Dynamic5QI flows with GBR characteristics).
Bit rates are in kbps.

Model non-dynamic vs dynamic 5QI characteristics explicitly and propagate the
new layout through NGAP decode and RRC bearer/QoS handling.
Changes:
- Define `non_dynamic_5qi_t`/`dynamic_5qi_t`, PER/PDB bounds, and embed a
`qos_characteristics` union in `pdusession_level_qos_parameter_t`
- Populate the new QoS structures in `fill_qos()`, including optional
allocations for Dynamic 5QI `fiveQI` and NonDynamic `priorityLevelQos`
- Map QoS params to F1AP with `nr_rrc_get_f1_qos_flow_param()` and add range
validation for dynamic priority/PDB/PER and non-dynamic 5QI
- Populate E1 QoS characteristics from the new layout and update QoS modify
handling to manage optional pointer fields (`openair2/RRC/NR/rrc_gNB_NGAP.c`)
- Derive a numeric 5QI via `get_qos_fiveqi()`, handle missing-5QI dynamic flows
conservatively, and extend dedicated-DRB decisions to fall back to dynamic
characteristics
- Add a 5QI range assert in F1AP QoS encoding and extend bearer tests with a
Dynamic 5QI flow

Refactor GTP-U tunnel creation to align for 3GPP architecture where N3
tunnels are created per PDU session (supporting multiple QoS flows) and
F1-U tunnels are created per DRB. This change simplifies the API and
prepares the codebase for supporting multiple DRBs and QoS flows per
PDU session.
This is the first step of a final design that will consist of:
- 1 GTP-U tunnel create call for each PDU session, each with a DRB mapping
- 1 GTP-U tunnel create call for each DRB (i.e. no QFI, no internal mapping)
API Changes:
- Convert gtpv1u_gnb_create_tunnel_req_t and gtpv1u_gnb_create_tunnel_resp_t
from array-based to scalar fields
* Remove num_tunnels field and array fields (outgoing_teid[], pdusession_id[], etc.)
* Use scalar fields: outgoing_teid, pdusession_id, incoming_rb_id, etc.
- Simplify gtpv1u_create_ngu_tunnel() to handle single tunnel per call
* Remove internal loop that processed multiple tunnels
* Call newGtpuCreateTunnel() once per invocation
* Update response handling to fill single tunnel response
Function Refactoring:
- Split generic drb_gtpu_create() into specialized functions:
* n3_gtpu_create(): Creates N3 tunnel (CU-UP to UPF/core network)
- callback assigned internally: nr_pdcp_data_req_drb, sdap_data_req
- One tunnel per PDU session
- QFI marking
- Supports multiple QoS flows per PDU session
* f1_drb_gtpu_create(): Creates F1-U tunnel (CU-UP to DU or DU side)
- callback assigned internally (cu_f1u_data_req or DURecvCb)
- One tunnel per DRB
- No QFI marking (QFI not used in F1-U)
- Each DRB can carry multiple QoS flows
- Update e1_bearer_context_setup() to loop over DRBs per PDU session
Each item in the PDU Session list contains a list of DRBs, thus
the function helper was adjusted to reflect that:
* Move DRB loop inside PDU session loop
* Create F1-U tunnel for each DRB individually
* Create single N3 tunnel per PDU session (outside DRB loop, with DRB mapping)
Also:
- Add comments to document and improve log messages for clarity
- Consistent error handling with AssertFatal checks
- Update NSA code path (rrc_gNB_nsa.c) to use new scalar API
Note: this commit is already taking into account the multi-QoS flows design

Apply QoS flow id as soon as the accept message is parsed, before interface
setup and before any code path that starts the per-session interface thread,
so the first SDUs are not sent with the default 0-initialized QFI 0.
Changes:
- In handle_pdu_session_accept, move set_qfi(...) to immediately before
interface setup.

Only build QoSFlowAddOrModifyResponseList when at least one QFI is present
and fail fast if PDUSessionResourceModifyResponseTransfer encoding does not
produce a valid buffer. This avoids sending malformed modify responses and
makes encoding failures explicit in the NGAP modify response path.
Changes:
- do QoS add/modify response list allocation when nb_of_qos_flow > 0
- add ASN.1 encode result validation

Remove redundant allocation and duplicate add for AMF_UE_NGAP_ID (asn1cSequenceAdd
already allocates), fixing encoding failure and leak. Fix ASN_STRUCT_FREE_CONTENTS_ONLY
in the unsuccessful-transfer path to free the correct struct.
Changes:
- In ngap_gNB_pdusession_modify_resp(), for AMF_UE_NGAP_ID IE: remove redundant
calloc() and duplicate asn1cSeqAdd() after asn1cSequenceAdd (avoids uninitialized
list element, encoding assertion, and leak).
- In PDU Session Resource Modify Unsuccessful Transfer handling: pass
&pdusessionTransfer to ASN_STRUCT_FREE_CONTENTS_ONLY instead of the unused
NULL pointer pdusessionTransfer_p;

Updated SCTP reconnect timer from TIMER_ONE_SHOT to
TIMER_PERIODIC so gNB continuously retries AMF lookup every
30 seconds after disconnect.
Timer is now removed only when ngap_amf_associated_nb > 0,
AMF association is actually back.
Further unused arguments cleanup
