UDM may send a Deregistration Notification to AMF, to deregister
specific UE from the network - Network-Initiated Deregistration.
Deregistration procedure includes sending Deregistration Request to UE,
starting a timer T3522, releasing PDU sessions from SMF, releasing PCF
policies from PCF, and waiting for Deregistration Accept from UE.
Not yet implemented is:
- to prevent deregistration of UE in case it has any emergency sessions,
- page UE when UE is in IDLE mode.
According to TS 23.502, 4.2.2.2.2, AMF sends Registration event to UDM
in the following cases:
- If the AMF has changed since the last Registration procedure, or
- if the UE provides a SUPI which doesn't refer to a valid context in
the AMF,
- or if the UE registers to the same AMF it has already registered
to a non- 3GPP access (i.e. the UE is registered over a non-3GPP access
and initiates this Registration procedure to add a 3GPP access).
In case that UE re-registers to the network with a GUTI, it bypasses
authentication check to the AUSF. In this case, AMF does not send
Registration event to UDM.
Consequently, when UE deregisters again, AMF would send a Deregistration
Event to a UDM, which does not have a context for it.
3GPP standard does not say when AMF sends Deregistration Event to UDM,
only that it is optional.
These (De-)Registration events are for (de-)registering AMF to the UDM
for serving the UE. And not for (de-)registering UE itself for purpose
of tracking when UE is registered on the network.
This partially reverts commit 7be7029ac4
3GPP TS 29.244 7.2.2.4.2 documents that the peer will set SEID=0 in the
response when we request something for a session not existing at the peer.
If that's the case, we still want to locate the local session which
originated the request, so let's store the local SEID in the xact when
submitting the message, so that we can retrieve the related SEID and
find the session if we receive SEID=0.
It was spotted that if DeleteSessionReq sent by SMF is answered by UPF
with cause="Session context not found", then it contains SEID=0 (this is
correct as per specs). Hence, since SEID=0 session is not looked up, so
sess=NULL.
A follow up commit improves the situation by looking up the SEID in the
originating request message in that case.
In that case, ogs_pfcp_ue_ip_alloc() will fail with the error message
"CHECK CONFIGURATION: Cannot find subnet [...]" and the assert will make
upf crash.
That's not desirable, let's keep it running and simply reject the
request. The error log is big enoguh to find out.
* [SMF] Avoid abort() if gtp_node mempool becomes full
Related: https://github.com/open5gs/open5gs/issues/1621
* [SMF] metrics: Add new ctr tracking gtp_node allocation failures
This metrics is useful to track whether at some point the mempool went
full, so that config needs to be updated to increase the mempool size.
Gy (3GPP TS 32.299 ) refers to AVP in DCCA (RFC4006).
RFC4006 5.1.2:
"[...] by including the Multiple-Services-Indicator AVP in the first
interrogation."
Nokia's infocenter documentation also states it's sent during Initial CCR
only: "(CCR-I only)".
* [SBI] Fix converting PatchItem to JSON
* [UDR] Add support for endpoint for patching subscription data
Add support for PATCH HTTP method for the following endpoint:
/subscription-data/{ueId}/context-data/amf-3gpp-access
Currently does not change any data in the database.
* [UDM] Add support for endpoint for patching subscription data
Add support for the following endpoint, HTTP PATCH method:
/nudm-uecm/v1/{ueId}/registrations/amf-3gpp-access
The endpoint is used when UE deregisters from the core, and AMF
sends a subscription modification request with "purgeFlag" set.
* [UDM] Add check for same GUAMI when patching subscription data
* [AMF] Send deregistration event to UDM
When UE sends deregistration request, AMF needs to send a
Nudm_UECM_Deregistration request to UDM.
The order of requests is now the following:
- send PDU session release to SMF
- send deregistration event to UDM
- send AM policy control release to PCF
smf_gtp_node_pool were properly freed.
However, the seqence was wrong, so we got a warning message.
To solve this problem, I've moved smf_gtp_node_alloc/free
from gtp_path.[ch] to context.[ch]
For null protection scheme the SUCI needs to be BCD encoded. Whereas for
protection scheme profiles A and B the SUCI needs to be converted from
hexadecimal to ASCII.
This still needs the support for protection schemes A and B in UDM to
work.
* Initial metrics support based on Prometheus
This commit introduces initial support for metrics in open5gs.
The metrics code is added as libogsmetrics (lib/metrics/), with a well
defined opaque API to manage different types of metrics, allowing for
different implementations for different technologies to scrap the
metrics (placed as lib/metrics/<impl>/. The implementation is right now
selected at build time, in order to be able to opt-out the related dependencies
for users not interested in the features. 2 implementations are already
provided in this commit to start with:
* void: Default implementation. Empty stubs, acts as a NOOP.
* prometheus: open5gs processes become Prometheus servers, offering
states through an http server to the Prometheus scrappers. Relies on
libprom (prometheus-client-ci [1] project) to track the metrics and format
them during export, and libmicrohttpd to make the export possible through
HTTP.
[1] https://github.com/digitalocean/prometheus-client-c
The prometheus-client-c is not well maintained nowadays in upstream, and
furthermore it uses a quite peculiar mixture of build systems (autolib
on the main dir, cmake for libprom in a subdir). This makes it difficult
to have it widely available in distros, and difficult to find it if it
is installed in the system. Hence, the best is to include it as a
meson subproject like we already do for freeDiameter. An open5gs fork is
requried in order to have an extra patch adding a top-level
CMakeList.txt in order to be able to includ eit from open5gs's meson
build. Furthermore, this allows adding bugfixes to the subproject if any
are found in the future.

Let's simply continuing with release of the session, there's not much we
can do about it. Peer will eventually realize the conn is no longer
there.
