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:
14:39:47.331910 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] Running MAC tti=3794
14:39:47.331928 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] Update Bj: lcid=0, Bj=0

14:39:47.331971 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: LCID=3 update new buffer=335
14:39:47.331976 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: check_new_data() -> get_buffer_state_lcg(0)=0
14:39:47.331980 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: check_new_data() -> get_buffer_state_lcg(1)=0
14:39:47.331984 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: check_new_data() -> get_buffer_state_lcg(2)=59
14:39:47.331988 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: check_new_data() -> get_buffer_state_lcg(3)=0
14:39:47.331993 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: LCID=0 old_buffer=0
14:39:47.332000 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR: LCID=1 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).
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.
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.

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
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
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.
all calls that manipulate the RLC and/or PDCP arrays suffer
from a high deadlock risk if a PHY worker holds the RLC
AM Rx mutex at the same time when the stack wants to carry
out this reconfiguration.
this applies to RRC Reconfigs, but potentially also to RRC Connection
Reestablishment or even RRC Connection Setup, although this should
seldom be the case.
By breaking the call stack between RLC->PDCP->RRC->RCL and
carrying out the reconfig as a single task without holding the
RLC readlock the deadlock should not happen anymore.
This should fix issue #1593
- Import the srslog project into srslte.
- Ported srsue app to use the new logging framework.
- Implemented a wrapper that dispatches log entries to srslog.
- Renamed an existing log test to be more specific to avoid name clashes.
* 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
apply same change that we've done on the eNB also on the UE
to avoid the PHY processing TTIs faster than the stack.
Without that, we see lots of those in the logs:
...
08:39:17.580325 [STCK] [W] Detected slow task processing (sync_queue_len=7).
...
before entering RRC idle, after receiving a RRC connection release for example,
we need to wait until the RLC for SRB1 or SRB2 have been flushed, i.e.
the RLC has acknowledged the reception of the message.
Previously we have only waited for SRB1 but the message can also be received on SRB2
and in this case both bearers need to be checked.
The method is now streamlined to check both SRBs and is also used when
checking the msg transmission of an detach request.
* 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.
Bugfix the wrong ra_rnti calculation in ra_proc::state_pdcch_setup.
According to TS 36.321 Subsection 5.1.4 Random Access Response reception, we can see the formula on RA-RNTI, which is,
RA-RNTI= 1 + t_id + 10*f_id,
where t_id is the index of the first subframe of the specified PRACH (0≤ t_id <10), and f_id is the index of the specified PRACH within that subframe, in ascending order of frequency domain (0≤ f_id< 6). Then, reading the srslte source code, we can see that, the code should bugfix.
BTW, the wrong code can run normal for LTE_FDD, causing of the info_f_id = 0; but it should be wrong, when it is LTE_TDD.
if no cell/PLMN can be found if the UE is switched on, the UE was never
trying again.
In theory this would be handled by T3410, but the timer
is not started in case the PLMN search isn't done yet.
The current TTI gap calculation assumes strict continuity
of radio time stamps, even when retuning, changing sample rate, etc.
This is certainly desireble but not necessaritly the case and may cause
issues when negative time gaps or too large gaps are detected and reported
to the stack.
this patch makes the assumption that valid TTI jumps are between 1ms
and 1s and that larger gaps are the result of screwed time-stamps
or too long radio operations.
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 commit implements support for the CLOSE_UE_TEST_LOOP message.
Currently the mode is not saved and looping the data is not implemented.
Only the *_COMPLETE message is sent back as a response.
First of all, with this the NAS conformance tests pass with ciphering and
integrity turned on. Before only integrity was working.
Mainly the NAS was applying the integrity protection and/or ciphering
incorrectly because it wasn't taking the secuirty status of the PDUs
into account. Some where already correct, some not. The patch
streamlines the handling for all outgoing messages.
during deinit of the UE/eNB it could happen that the log_ptr
was already set to null but the stack thread was still accessing
it through log_h->info()
i've moved the old macro into a new header and used as as much
as possible. there are still places in the code where similar
macros are used but we would need to change the variable name
to replace them
previously the NAS would cancel a attach request procedure if the PLMN
is already selected. PLMN selection, however, in not necessarily happening
before requesting RRC to establish a connection.
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.
t3402, t3410 and t3411 are now managed in the sender
function of the attach request. previosly they were only
correctly started in the high-level NAS call start_attach_request()
which may not be called if NAS itself resends the request
* Use task id to track old background tasks in RA procedure

the signal handler is the same for all three apps. The "running" flag
as well as the file_logger object are in the common header in order
to allow the signal handler to flush the file if the alarm goes off.
