that patch addreses issue #2199 by defering RA-related calls that
are executed from within PHY workers.
The time-critical bits of more complex functions such as tb_decoded()
are still executed in the PHY worker thread but the state machine
manipulation is defered.

during MAC reset, scells are reset to and their PCI is set to UINT32_MAX
which results in malformatted stdout prints, see below:

this patch checks the configured PCI value against UINT32_MAX and
prints "n/a" in case the scells aren't set yet.
when retrieving the RLC metrics, the number of TTIs since the last
call are passed. This allows to calculate the actual rate
based on the LTE timing rather than only the system timing.
some RF boards might have issues with the sharp filters that are needed
for the reduced sample rate operation that we use by default.
This switch allows to use the default LTE sampling rates and
configure this at run-time, not compile time.
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:

14:39:47.331993 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: LCID=0 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
this was a very noisy log that was printed in pretty much
every TTI because the BSR procedure starts a SR whenever
it needs to send a regular BSR. The SR is canceled when a UL
grant arrives but the log line stays there.
Since we are printing a log when we actually signal a SR
to the PHY, this line is not needed.
this fixes the trigger logic for periodic BSRs. Previously we
would always trigger the "new data for highest priority LCID"
whenever new data becomes available for a LCID for which
a BSR has already been sent.
However, a BSR should only be sent if the priority is in fact higher
(lower int number).
the BSR routine had a bug in which it would generate a BSR even
before the reTx timer expires if new data becomes availble
for a LCID that already had data and a BSR was already sent.
The RA test here relies on a BSR in the generated MAC PDU to pass.
However, since after fixing the BSR bug the PDU the MUX unit
no longer generates a BSR, we need generate data for a LCID
which has higher priority than the one for which a BSR has
already been sent.
in ZMQ runs we've seen that entering idle could take quite
a bit of time depending how quickly workers get their samples
sent or reconfigurations done.
In one example up to ~160ms
this patch increases the maximum wait time to 2s.
the BSR trigger wasn't reset after includinga regular or periodic
BSR inside a PDU. This caused the muxing to include another BSR in the
next UL grant. For very small grants, for example with 6 PRBs, this
causes the UE to send way too many BSRs.
this test varifies the correct operation of the retxBSR timer.
the first PDU includes a long BSR to indicate more LCGs have
data to transmit. The retxBSR timer is started and subsequent
PDUs should not send a regular BSR.
After the retxBSR timer expires, a UL PDU should again include
a BSR.
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.
this avoid logging a warning on UE shutdown if the MAC is already reset
but one of the PHY workers still decodes an UL grant for the old RTNI

this fixes issue #1846 that appears to be related
to the enter/exit state for measurements that is kept
even after a cell disappears from the neighbor list
this fixes#1791 which was caused by a race between
the PHY workers preparing a new UL-SCH PDU and the Stack resetting
the MAC, which in turn resets the HARQ processeses, which cleared
the buffer and set the length to zero.
Not explicitly clearing the buffer on a HARQ reset seems to be
fine since the PHY worker clears the buffer before starting to
pack a new PDU anyway.
The “IPv4 local address type” filter should be 9 bytes since it includes
not only the ip address, but also its subnet mask.
Quoting from 3GPP TS 24.008 10.5.6.12:
"""
For "IPv4 remote address type", the packet filter component value field
shall be encoded as a sequence of a four octet IPv4 address field and a
four octet IPv4 address mask field. The IPv4 address field shall be
transmitted first. For "IPv4 local address type", the packet filter
component value field shall be encoded as defined for "IPv4 remote
address type".
"""
Same for the ToS which also includes a 1 byte mask value

this was preventing that the Temp-CRNTI used in the RAR to be identical
to the currently configured C-RNTI of the UE.
The issue simply was that the RACH procedure was declared successful too
early, even before the Msg3 UL grant was filled with the Msg3 content.
The patch moves the logic that detects the successful completion of
the RACH procedure below the Msg3 packing.
* Removed magic numbers.
* Reduced indentation of statements with early exists.
* Removed elses after a return statement.
* Trimmed unnecessary include files.
* Default initialized members in the class.
we fix a number of very related issues for HO/reestablishment
in the success/error case:
* this patch removes the hard-coded check that intra-cell HO aren't
allowed. There are cases where eNBs use this method to update
the security context.
* the patch also fixes an issue after failed HO where the security context
of the source eNB should be used for the reestablishment.
* update security keys according to specs when mobilitycontrol
indicated change of key
the filter alpha was initialized to zero by default which causes an
issue because the first measurement for a cell can't be updated,
because the filtering function will always return the current value.
According to 36.331 Sec 5.5.3.2 Note 2, a k-value of 0 should turn
off filtering, which should be used as the default value until
an update is received from the network.
this rather large patch changes the way cells are handled in the SS.
It moves RLC and PDCP entities to the cell map of the SS, such that each cell
has its own entities. This allows to support HO operation, for example,
in which two cells need to send SRB messages.
It also extends most of the syssim interface to include the cell name
in all commands so they can be applied on the specified cell only.
stopping the UE in ZMQ mode caused a dead-lock because the Stack was
stopped before the PHY causing the sync queue to overflow. Since we
use a queue-length of 1 in ZMQ, mode, the PHY sync thread was blocking to
push a new sync event while the stack thread was already stopped.
this patch makes sure no new sync events are queued after the stack has
been terminated.
this patch fixes the UL BSR as per TS 36.321, it includes following
main changes:
* report UL buffer state to reflect the UEs transmit buffer after
the MAC UL PDU containing the BSR has been built.
In other words, if the UE, for example, can transmit all outstanding
data in an UL grant, it will not report any pending data to transmit.
* refactor MUX routines and subheader space calculation
* split existing BSR test into dedicated test for short, long, and trunc
BSR tests
* update MAC tests that include packing UL BSR.
(After checking TS 36.321 again it seems we have reported old UL buffer states)
simplify logic to check whether a BSR fits and, if so, which type.
before the check has been done in two places.
we now also accomodate for the CE subheader size.
we've not checked the return value when adding a new CE, like BSR or PHR,
for a UL MAC PDU. For very small UL grants, this could fail and
we need to remove the subheader again before packing the PDU.
This fixes issue #1649.
before the BSR was extracted but the actual index (between 0 and 63)
was not stored but directly converted into bytes.
for log parsing and debugging it is easier to follow the index
value. this patch therefore adds both values to the log message
and extends the API accordingly.
