this potentially fixes the issue we see during HO and RLF
under high DL load.
The issue happens because buffered DL PDUs are delivered to
RLC after reestablishing RLC that confuse the receiving
RLC entity bc the sequence numbers are very high, as opposed
to begin with zero again after reestablishment.
* mac_test: add extended TBSR unit test
unit test to MAC UL packing after sending a TBSR
this fixes the MAC issues described in issue #2002
* mux: fix updating of LCG buffer state after packing PDU
we've previously lowered the buffer state of the LCG according
to the bytes that have been scheduled, but not according to
those that have been actually included in the PDU.
* proc_bsr: fix LCG buffer state updating for TBSR
when sending a TBSR do not update the internal buffer
state of the BSR proc.
This caused issues because the buffer state for all LCG that
are not included in the TBSR are set to zero, although at least
one LCG does have data to transmit.
* rlc_am: include LCID when logging retx of SN
the current implementation was somehow broken after a
NAS refactor. It was undetected because we didn't really
use it.
this fixes the simulation by using a single timer to simulate
airplane mode transitions.
the timer is rearmed in the timer_expire() function
if the correspondig event is set.
Has been tested to work well with, e.g.:
--sim.airplane_t_on_ms 5000 --sim.airplane_t_off_ms 10000
fix for #1934
This fixes a race condition between Stack thread and DL
PDU processing that lead to updates of the RLC buffer that
are undetected by the BSR routine.
What happens is that in a UL SCH PDU all outstanding data is transmitted
and and a LBSR with all zero buffers is sent.
14:39:47.327301 [MAC ] [D] [ 3793] BSR: LCID=3 old_buffer=59
14:39:47.330600 [MAC ] [I] [ 3793] UL LCID=3 len=58 LBSR: b=0 0 0 0
Note that "old_buffer" isn't set to zero here.
At the same time (same TTI), the MAC PDU processing thread handles DL-SCH PDUs
that may generate new UL PDUs:
14:39:47.330749 [RLC ] [I] DRB1 Tx SDU (54 B, tx_sdu_queue_len=1)
14:39:47.330762 [RLC ] [I] DRB1 Tx SDU (54 B, tx_sdu_queue_len=2)
14:39:47.330775 [RLC ] [I] DRB1 Tx SDU (54 B, tx_sdu_queue_len=3)
..
Those PDUs are "new data" since the previous buffer state was zero.
Here is the race now between the threads, at the end of the bsr::step() function
old_buffer of each LCG is updated with the previous new_buffer, so
the buffer state of LCG=2 is now 59.
Now MAC starts the next TTI:
14:39:47.331910 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] Running MAC tti=3794
14:39:47.331928 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] Update Bj: lcid=0, Bj=0
14:39:47.331934 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] Update Bj: lcid=1, Bj=0
14:39:47.331938 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] Update Bj: lcid=2, Bj=0
14:39:47.331941 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] Update Bj: lcid=3, Bj=-1752
14:39:47.331951 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: LCID=0 update new buffer=0
14:39:47.331960 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: LCID=1 update new buffer=0
14:39:47.331964 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: LCID=2 update new buffer=0
14:39:47.331971 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: LCID=3 update new buffer=335
14:39:47.331976 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: check_new_data() -> get_buffer_state_lcg(0)=0
14:39:47.331980 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: check_new_data() -> get_buffer_state_lcg(1)=0
14:39:47.331984 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: check_new_data() -> get_buffer_state_lcg(2)=59
14:39:47.331988 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: check_new_data() -> get_buffer_state_lcg(3)=0
14:39:47.331993 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: LCID=0 old_buffer=0
14:39:47.332000 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: LCID=1 old_buffer=0
14:39:47.332003 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: LCID=2 old_buffer=0
14:39:47.332007 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: LCID=3 old_buffer=335
And since the buffer state of LCG=2 isn't zero, the new data for LCID=3 of that LCG is considered.
So effectivly, the BSR missed the "empty" buffer state for a fraction of time and doesn't
consider the outgoing data generated in the same TTI as new. It therefore
doesn't transmit a BSR.
in which a BSR wasn't
when releasing PUCCH/SRS (see 5.3.13 in 36.331) we need to reset the SR config as well.
In our case, SR is handled by MAC so we need to (re-)configure MAC, not all of
MAC though, just SR.
* Take into account CRS from neigbhour cells when measuring interference
* fix std::isnormal compilation
* Fixed compilation of test
* Address comments
* Remove unused overrides
