The documentation talks about a MAC protocol trace, but in fact
it is only a protocol trace of dedicated channels. There's a related
define in the source code, but that's not documented.
Let's at least make the user aware that the MAC pcap trace is
for dedicated channels only, unless he uses that #define.
when using
[pcap]
enable = true
filename = /tmp/enb.pcap
in enb.conf, there is no pcap file created.
The problem is somewhere in the way how arguments are handled.
pcap.enable is properly parsed into args.pcap. However, later on,
lte_stack->init(args.stack, rrc_cfg, lte_phy.get()) only passes
args.stack down the road, not args.pcap. enb_stack_lte::init() then
basically uses args.stack.pcap and not args.pcap, and the latter appears
always false.
Let's remove pcap_args_t from all_args and only use the instance in
stack_args_t.
Closes: #359
- Moved most the initialization of the pdcp_entity to the header.
- Initilize some variables in gtpu_ntoa.
- Removed debug print.
- Format eNB GTP-u debugging code.
this fixes the issue when the stack is torn down if, for example,
the radio couldn't be loaded correctly. it will hence call stop() on all stack
components which are not initialzized yet, and logging therefore doesn't work.
the log object is know during contruction time and therefore can be passed
in as soon as possible.
this will also extend all classes that use srslte::thread
to specify the name of the thread in the ctor as well
as to set the name of the worker threads in the thread pool
the thread name will be displayed in gdb.
- abstract UE object now consists of a radio, a PHY, and a stack layer
- add new stack abstraction layer that combines MAC, RLC, RRC, PDCP, NAS and GW
- PHY layer now has a single stack interface and does not talk to MAC and RRC seperatly
