when packing MAC PDUs, adding a new SDU might fail, for example
because RLC couldn't provide a new PDU. The muxer then needs
to delete the subheader from the PDU again.
When adding a padding BSR at the end, the same subheader is again
used to store the BSR, so any state in that subheader should be removed.
In the particular case, this was causing an issue when logging a LBSR
because the LCG buffer states are printed using the payload buffer,
which was still pointing to some memory that was used when trying
to add the new RLC PDU in the beginning.
LBSR packing is fine but this makes the eNB do wrong things
because it thinkgs LCG2 has no or too much data to send.
LCG2 is our default LCG for DRB1. One occasion we saw the issue
is doing full rate TCP DL which requires quite a bit of ACK traffic
back to the sender. With the BSR for LCG2 being wrong, providing
UL grants was delayed and so the TCP DL throuhgput was very low.
In the log below we see that the buff_size[2]=1 so there is data to send.
Interestingly, the packing was correct so Wireshark displays it correctly.
But the unpacking not, as can be seen in the MAC log below which reports
0 buffer state for all LCGs
22:08:54.804792 [MAC ] [I] [ 5084] pdu_get: sdu_len=1212, channel.sched_len=1213, bsr.buff_size[2]=1
22:08:54.804840 [MAC ] [I] [ 5084] UL LCID=3 len=1212 LBSR: b=0 0 0 0
* rlc_am: add TC for pollRetx timer handling
* rlc_am: fix stopping of pollRetx timer
stopping the pollRetx timer when receiving a status PDU
without checking the acknowledged PDUs is wrong.
if an ACK for another PDU, for which the polling bit has been set,
is still pending, it won't be rescheduled until another
PDU is transmitted that again starts the pollRetx timer.
this fixes the issue with missing RLC AM segment retx in #1992,
and #2003
* 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
I noticed that the app didn't configure the process with
RT thread prio. But it then turned out that in order to do
that we need to actually spawn a new thread. Also a few other things
didn't work out of the box.
In summary the changes are:
* fix duration to support more than 120s
* move main functionality in thread
* set high priority for radio thread
* only return success if no radio errors occured
this makes sure that the reconstructed RLC AM header
has the poll bit set when any of its segments had it set.
this triggered a bug in RLC AM because the Status PDU
isn't transmitted for a RLC PDU that was segmented and
only the first segment had the P flag set.

author tested with local 4 port cell. I am not able to verify locally but
it looks ok, we'll revise later if needed.
When using srsLTE with Lime devices, calibration was performed before any configuration steps have happened, thus making calibration values invalid. Removing Lime specific calibration step from rf_soapy_imp makes so that devices will be automatically calibrated by SoapyLMS on rf_soapy_start_stream call.
Tested and working with srsENB using LimeSDR-USB v1.4 and LimeSDR-Mini v1.2 boards.
when the default RF args are used, NULL is passed as argument
to the RF driver. In this case, we should use the previous
SoapySDRDevice_enumerate() and let Soapy pick the device
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.
- s1 handover composite state simplified
- the eNB now starts a HO cancellation when it receives an invalid
Handover Command
- the FSM log now prints the current state when it receives an unhandled
event
This patch adds version string to the 'libsrslte_rf' library.
This results in the library being built as
libsrslte_rf.so.20.04.2
with the following symbolic links
libsrslte_rf.so.0 -> libsrslte_rf.so.20.04.2
libsrslte_rf.so -> libsrslte_rf.so.0
The SRSLTE_SOVERSION variable should be increased with each backwards
incompatible change of the library.

this patch adds a check to drop all PDCP control PDUs
in order to prevent handling them as data PDUs.
This could happen when the size exceeded the arbitrary length check.
This should fix#1787

before epoll can handle signals, the calling thread needs to block
them. the blocking needs to happen before any other threads get
spawned so they inherit the mask.
the Tx SDU has been set to 128 PDUs because this gives approx.
150kByte UL buffer state (max value for Rel 8 BSR).
Previously, however, we've always reported too much pending UL
data because we weren't subtracting the transmitted data from
the reported data.
with this newer BSR reporting, however, even with full buffers we would
never report full buffers because the queues size is too short.
This seems to cause issues for iperf TCP sessions not resulting
in full DL rate, see isse #1703. It seems that the TCP bandwitdh
probing works better with larger buffers (in our case this can
only be achieved with more PDUs in the pool).
This should fix#1703
this patch refactors the MAC PDU class, the main changes are:
* add to_string() method to pretty print PDU and subheaders
This allows to have a single log entry per MAC PDU with all its
contents.
It removes the C-style fprint() method
* Simplity payload vs. w_payload_ce
Before we've used payload when reading the PDU and w_payload_ce
as a buffer when writing. In all getters we needed to differentiate
between both. Now payload points to w_payload_ce initially and is
only updated when parsing a new PDU.
* add various helpers, e.g. to get subheader index, update a BSR, ..
* fix PDU test to use new to_string() method
