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
previously PDCP security (integrity and ciphering) could only
be enabled for both Rx and Tx at the same time.
this, however, caused an issue during the conformance testing in which,
in TC_8_2_1_1() for example, the eNB sends a SecModeCommand and a
RRC Reconfiguration in the same MAC TB. In this case, the eNB
needs to be able to enable DL security right after sending the SecModeCmd
in order to send the RRCReconfig encrypted. However, enabling UL security needs
to be postponed until after the SecModeComplete is received.
This patch allows to enable PDCP security for rx/tx independently if
that is needed. The default way is like before, enabling it for tx/rx at
the same time.
