In the past only GTPv2C was supported, and had the "gtp" generic prefix.
Later on, GTPv1C support was added, and "gtp1" prefix was used.
Let's move GTPv2C specific bits to have "gtp2" prefix too, and leave
"gtp" prefix for generic stuff among different GTP versions.
According to TS 29.060 they should be added.
section 7.6:
"if it is a request for which a response has been defined, shall be sent
with a Sequence Number"
section 8.2:
"""
Sequence number flag (S) shall be set to "1"
...
For GTP-C messages not having a defined response message for a request
message, i.e. for messages Version Not Supported, RAN Information Relay
and Supported Extension Headers Notification, the Sequence Number shall
be ignored by the receiver.
"
It seems to be actually mandatory in GGSN->SGN directon, though it is
ignored in Release99 upwards. Let's hardcode it to 0 for now, should be
fine in the majority of cases.
* [CORE] tlv: Store mode in ogs_tlv_t
This allows specifying the format of the IE for each individual IE,
hence allowing messages containing IEs formatted in different ways.
This is needed in order to support parsing GTPv1-C, since messages
contain IEs with different structure (TLV vs TV). Hence, this is a
preparation patch to add support for parsing TVs in ogs-tlv.c/.h.
* [CORE] tlv: Support parsing msg with both TLV and TV in it
IEs of type TV are sometimes used in GTPv1-C. Current tlv parser/builder
doesn't provide with ways to parse messages which contain TV formatted
IEs. This patch adds the relevant types and ways to encode/decode them.
Furthermore, the current parser/builder allows parsing/building messages
containing the exact same format in all its IEs. A new parser function
is added which allows parsing messages of different types (TV, TLV)
mixed in the same message. In order to be able to do so, it uses the
general msg_mode passed to it in order to know the general TLV format
(in essence, the length of the Tag field, and also the length of the
Length field if applicable each IE).
Looking up the instance in the TLV description is left undone and
hadcoded to 0, since the only user so far requiring this API is GTPv1-C,
which has no instances.
* [CORE] tlv: Support repeated tag+instance parsing TLV message
In GTPv2C, repeated IEs (same tag) are easily differentiated by the
Instance byte, which provides info to match different decoded
structures. In GTPv1C though, there's no Instance byte, and we still
encounter repeated IEs (like GSN Address in Create PDP Context Request).
Hence, the TLV decoder needs to be updated to track count of IEs found
(identified by tag+instance, where instance is always 0 in GTPv1C) and
get the proper description index + offset into the decoded structure.
* [GTP]: Move GTPv2-C specifics to its own libgtp subdir
This will allow adding GTPv1-C code by the side. Most GTPv2 code is left
in this patch as "gtp" instead of renaming it to "gtp2" in order to
avoid massive changes. It can be done at a later stage if wanted.
* [GTP] Support generating GTPv1-C messages
* [SMF] Add Gn interface support
This patch introduces GTPv1C support to open5gs-smfd. With it,
open5gs-becomes a GGSN too, where SGSN can connect to, hence supporting
GERAN and UTRAN networks.
* [GTP] xact: Fix trailing whitespace
* [GTP] xact: Avoid exporting internally used functions
This simplifies the API header hiding unneeded APIs from external
components, and lets the compiler further optimize by
marking the functions as static.
* [GTP] xact: Drop unused API ogs_gtp_xact_find
After making it static, it became clear to the compiler that this
function is not used anywhere, warning about it. Let's drop it.
* [SMF] Fix potential null pointer dereference
Pointer "sess" was first dereferenced and later on checked for nullness.
This is clearly wrong. Rearrange the code path to make sure the check is
done first, then dereferenced.
* gitignore: Add subprojects/libtins
* cosmetic: Fix whitespace
So far, no operation was performed when Error Indication was received
from eNodeB. For that reason, I solved #568 issues by controlling
the MME to prevent this from happening.
Now, when GTP-U Error Indication is received, MME and SGW are implemented
to do what they have to do. I hope that the network can be restored
by responding appropriately even if Error Indication occurs.
- Set the number of UEs in units of AMF/MME instead of gNB/eNB.
- See default value as shown below
Number of UEs per AMF/MME : 4,096
Number of gNB/eNB per AMF/MME : 32
