A friend in the community was trying to connect an SMF made by another
manufacturer with an SBI interface and found a big problem with Open5GS.
All of the code in the part that generates the Resource URI
from HTTP.location is invalid.
For example, suppose we create a Resource URI with SMContext as below.
{apiRoot}/nsmf-pdusession/<apiVersion>/sm-contexts/{smContextRef}
In this case, Open5GS extracted the {smContextRef} part of the HTTP.location
and appended it to the beginning
{apiRoot}/nsmf-pdusession/<apiVersion>/sm-contexts/.
This implementation may not work properly if the apiRoot changes.
Consider a different port number as shown below.
<HTTP.location>
127.0.0.4:9999/nsmf-pdusession/v1/sm-contexts/1
The SMF may send an apiRoot to the AMF with a changed port number,
in which case the AMF must honor it.
Therefore, instead of extracting only the smContextRef from HTTP.location,
we modified it to use the whole thing to create a Resource URI.
We modified all NFs that use HTTP.location in the same way, not just SMFs.
amf_ue->mac_failed flag to be cleared during security mode procedure but it was not.
At this point, the only way to cleare the amf_ue->mac_failed flag is by UE Context Release.
But I'd like to connect UEs as fast as possible without UE Context Release.
All process will be forcely exited if it failed to encode the S1AP/NGAP/GTP/PFCP message. It is to make sure there was no problem with the encoding of open5gs.
