when removing a user from the eNB we iterated over all possible LCIDs
and set the buffer state to zero in the scheduler.
this resulted in following log entries:
13:57:23.856334 [RRC ] [I] Received Release Complete rnti=0x46
13:57:23.856352 [MAC ] [W] [ 5149] The provided lcid=6 is not valid
13:57:23.856362 [MAC ] [W] [ 5149] The provided lcid=7 is not valid
13:57:23.856368 [MAC ] [W] [ 5149] The provided lcid=8 is not valid
13:57:23.856371 [MAC ] [W] [ 5149] The provided lcid=9 is not valid
13:57:23.856376 [MAC ] [W] [ 5149] The provided lcid=10 is not valid
we now check if the bearer exits at RLC and only report those to the MAC.
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
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
* 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)
since we've used a blocking read of stdin (with std::getline())
we had a race when the eNB was stopped and the user was still making
keyboard inputs. this is because the we didn't wait until the input
thread was terminated until we stopped the eNB.
we know use poll to query stdin (getline has no timeout mechanism).
