* Make PHY non-blocking and fefactor HO procedure
* makes entire PHY non-blocking through command interface
* adds dedicated queue for cell_search/cell_select commands
* refactor HO procedure to run faster, in one stack cycle. Looks closer to the specs
* force ue to always apply SIB2 configuration during reestablishment
* Run update_measurements in all workers

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
* add locked and unlocked version of has_data() since one is
called from stack and one from PHY threads
* add comments in each interface section as to why locking
is required or not
* remove RLC rwlock when not required
* move calls only used by RRC to RRC section
this patch refactors the SDU queuing and dropping policy of the RLC and PDCP layer.
the previous design had issues when packets have been generated at a higher
rate above the PDCP than they could be consumed below the RLC.
When the RLC SDU queues were full, we allowed two policies, one to block on the write
and the other to drop the SDU. Both options are not ideal because they either
lead to a blocking stack thread or to lost PDCP PDUs.
To avoid this, this patch makes the following changes:
* PDCP monitors RLC's SDU queue and drops packets on its north-bound SAP if queues are full
* a new method sdu_queue_is_full() has been added to the RLC interface for PDCP
* remove blocking write from pdcp and rlc write_sdu() interface
* all writes into queues need to be non-blocking
* if Tx queues are overflowing, SDUs are dropped above PDCP, not RLC
* log warning if RLC still needs to drop SDUs
* this case should be avoided with the monitoring mechanism
* Added the appropriate code for handling and sending the
re-establishment procedure messages to rrc_ue.c/.h.
* Triggered RRC reconfiguration after the reception of RRC
re-establishment complete
* Refreshed K_eNB at the reception of re-establishment
request
* Changed the mapping of TEIDs to RNTIs in the GTP-U layer,
as the RNTI might change with reestablishment.
extend GW-NAS interface to signal test mode activation.
The method is a noop in the normal GW but is implemented in
the TTCN3 DUT according to TS 36.509 for Mode B
this is to better differentiate from "send_attach_request" that
only packs and send the actual attach request message. The
entire attach procedure may include PLMN search, etc.
- add tx/rx softbuffers for each CC that a UE might have
- make sure to call assign correct buffers when iterating
over the CC for UL/DL grant assignment
Avoid double buffering of SIBs in MAC as this would require one buffer for each CC.
Instead, use byte_buffer managed by RRC that contains packed SIBs to avoid
double memcpy for each SIB tx. Only use MAC provided buffer in error case.
Also avoid MAC calling RLC for each SIB and call RRC directly.
- move cell specific eNB params to cell list in rr.conf
- make sure DL EARFCN and DL freq can be used to manually overwrite a single cell config
- fix SIB packing and transmission for multi cell configs
- introduce cell list to MAC
- adapt default enb.conf.example and rr.conf.example
