'node_timeout' and some other functions can remove a smf_sess_t
while that session is still waiting for a PFCP reply
and has an active PFCP xact.
In this case, xact->data points to the deleted session
and xact's timeout function (sess_5gc_timeout for example)
eventually refers to this already freed session.
This fix prevents duplicate deletes from occurring by checking to see
if the session context has already been deleted when the timeout occurs.
Additionally, it moves session deletions out of timer callbacks into
state machine by reselect_upf().
Due to the way 'ogs_timer_mgr_expire' calls timer callbacks,
one must not stop or expire timers from within a timer callback.
And now one must not remove sessions from within a timer callback.
If eg. PCRF or AAA diameter link is not yet ready (eg. PCRF crashed), and
a client sends a CreateSessionRequest announcing its ow F-TEID,
then open5gs-smfd answers with Create Session Response Cause=
"Remote peer not responding", but it is not setting the received F-TEID
in the header of the response, instead it sends with TEI=0.
As a result, the peer cannot match the CreateSessionResponse, and needs
to rely on its own timeout timer to figure out that specific request failed.
This also happens in PFCP, so to solve this problem, I added teid/seid_presence
to the interface that sends the error message as shown below.
void ogs_gtp2_send_error_message(ogs_gtp_xact_t *xact,
int teid_presence, uint32_t teid, uint8_t type, uint8_t cause_value);
void ogs_pfcp_send_error_message(
ogs_pfcp_xact_t *xact, int seid_presence, uint64_t seid, uint8_t type,
uint8_t cause_value, uint16_t offending_ie_value);
The UPF is sending Session Report Request after the Session was Deleted,
when the Gy interface is active.
UPF is sending PFCP session report request after the session has been deleted
when the Gy interface is active. This is because some of the timers related to
the report are not deleted when the session is deleted.
We have fixed it to delete all the timers in the session
when the SESSION is deleted.
Scenario is handover on S1AP, data forwarding is enabled, and
the Source ENB is forwarding DL PDCP packets to EPC(SGWU)
with PDCP SN included. SGWU is also forwarding these packets
to the Target ENB.
However the PDCP SN is not present in the forwarded packets
from SGWU to Target ENB.
I modified this part, and there was the same problem in 5GC, fixed it as well.
A lot of code in GTP-U has been modified,
so if you have any problems, please let us know right away.
TS23.007 17.4.1
19A PFCP based restart procedures
After a PFCP entity has restarted, it shall immediately update all local Recovery Time Stamps and shall clear all remote
Recovery Time Stamps. When peer PFCP entities information is available, i.e. when the PFCP Association is still alive,
the restarted PFCP entity shall send its updated Recovery Time Stamps in a Heartbeat Request message to the peer
PFCP entities before initiating any PFCP session signalling.
A buffer overflow occurred in ALPINE
because the size of the pfcp message structure increased by
ogs_pfcp_tlv_framed_route_t framed_route[8];

Expose metrics with labels according to ETSI TS 128 552 V16.13.0 in
UPF by using hash.
The metrics are named respecting the rule:
<generation>_<measurement_object_class>_<measurement_family_name>_<metric_name_as_in_TS_128_552>
5qi is not available in UPF.
To present 5qi to the user, MN will have to maintain a table qfi->5qi
for each QoS flow (will have to get information from SMF).
So UPF has to expose qfi. qfi itself is not useful. When used, UPF will
have to expose additional label to define the session (e.g. source
interface).
Label dnn is set to value of APN/DNN received in Establishment.
Since SMF does not add APN/DNN to Establishment, the label is empty.
When APN/DNN will be set by SMF, it should be added to sess in UPF
and used in metrics on Modification and Deletion.
Both datavolumeqosleveln3upf are exposed in bytes.
MN is providing the transformation to kbits.
fivegs_upffunction_upf_qosflows should expose the number of QFIs used in
sessions, but exposes number of QER rules, which is currently equal to
QFIs.
The label snsssai is not provided since the slice is not available on UPF.
Exposed metrics example:
