ms: Add GprsMs class to hold per-MS information Currently only TBF objects are used to handle the data flow between the MS and the SGSN. MS specific data (e.g. pending LLC frames, TLLI) is copied between successive TBFs. If all TBFs (uplink and downlink) are idle for some time, all information about the MS is discarded in the PCU. This makes the implementation of some features more difficult, e.g. proper TLLI and timing advance handling, connection based CS selection, and proper management of multiple TBF. This commit adds the GprsMs class that is intended to hold information directly related to the MS and to keep references to the active TBFs. The class is not yet integrated with the other PCU code. A GprsMs object container and MS specific fields (TA, CS) will be added in later commits. Note that calling detach_tbf() can possibly delete the MS object depending on the callback implementation.

llc: Use CoDel to drop packages from the LLC queue Currently packets are only dropped if they have reached their maximum life time. This leads to LLC queues being constantly filled under load, increasing the latency up to the maximum life time. This kind of bufferbloat hinders TCP's congestion avoidance algorithms. To keep the queues short, the CoDel active queue management algorithm can be used. This commit changes to llc_dequeue method to apply the CoDel algorithm to selectively drop LLC frames before they passed to the TBF layer to be encoded in BSNs. This feature is currently disabled by default. The CoDel state is managed per MS since the LLC queues are also kept in the MS objects. Note that there is still some buffering in the TBF objects, in the worst case (CS4) 3.5kByte + LLC-MTU octets are stored there. The resulting additional packet delay is not (yet) taken into account for CoDel. Also note that configuration changes are applied to new MS objects only. The following VTY commands are added to the 'pcu' node: - queue codel activates CoDel, the interval is selected by the implementation - queue codel interval <1-1000> activates CoDel with a fixed interval given in centiseconds (10ms-10s) - no queue codel deactivates CoDel Which interval value to use is still an open issue. For high speed links (e.g. Ethernet), CoDel suggests 100ms. For slower links, the expected RTT is recommended. The current implementation uses a default value of 2000ms. Measurements: Note that the following measurements depend on several other factors, most notably the interaction with the SGSN's flow control. They are just examples to give an idea how CoDel might influence some parameters. The measurements have been done with a single E71, first with a running ping only (Idle), then with an additional TCP download of a 360k file (Busy). The CoDel interval was set to 1s. - Idle : ping ~400ms, avg queue delay 0ms, dropped 0 - Busy, No CoDel: ping ~6s, avg queue delay 4-6s, dropped 0, scheduled 948, duration 54s - Busy, CoDel: ping 500-1500ms, avg queue delay ~600ms, dropped 77, scheduled 1040, duration 60s More measurements with two MS downloading in parallel (two independant measurements per case). - Busy, No CoDel: dropped 0, scheduled 1883, duration 121s dropped 19, scheduled 2003, duration 133s - Busy, CoDel: dropped 22, scheduled 1926, duration 116s dropped 22, scheduled 1955, duration 108s Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf

ms: Add MS storage class Currently the MS objects are contained in the TBF objects only. To allow for an extended life time after the TBF objects have been freed and to find them based on TLLI, a container for the MS objects is needed.

tbf: Move the LLC queue to GprsMs Currently the enqueued DL LLC messages which have not yet passed to RLC/MAC encoding are eventually copied from one TBF to the next one (see gprs_rlcmac_dl_tbf::reuse_tbf). Since the enqueued LLC messages are related to a specific MS, they should be stored at that layer. This commit moves the gprs_llc_queue object to GprsMs and changes the TBF's accessor methods accordingly. The LLC copying code is removed from gprs_rlcmac_dl_tbf::reuse_tbf().

tbf: Store the timing advance (TA) value in the GprsMs object The TA value rather relates to an MS and not to a single TBF. So all TBFs share the same TA value. Currently the TA value is stored per TBF and eventually copied from an old TBF to a new one. It is in general only passed with an RACH request when the TLLI and thus the MS is not yet known. This commit adds a TA member to the GprsMs class and uses that one when the TBF is associated to an MS object. Since the TBF is not always associated with an MS object (after RACH or when it has been replaced by another TBF), the TA value is still stored in each TBF and that value is used as long as no MS object is being associated.

tbf: Store the timing advance (TA) value in the GprsMs object The TA value rather relates to an MS and not to a single TBF. So all TBFs share the same TA value. Currently the TA value is stored per TBF and eventually copied from an old TBF to a new one. It is in general only passed with an RACH request when the TLLI and thus the MS is not yet known. This commit adds a TA member to the GprsMs class and uses that one when the TBF is associated to an MS object. Since the TBF is not always associated with an MS object (after RACH or when it has been replaced by another TBF), the TA value is still stored in each TBF and that value is used as long as no MS object is being associated.

llc: Use CoDel to drop packages from the LLC queue Currently packets are only dropped if they have reached their maximum life time. This leads to LLC queues being constantly filled under load, increasing the latency up to the maximum life time. This kind of bufferbloat hinders TCP's congestion avoidance algorithms. To keep the queues short, the CoDel active queue management algorithm can be used. This commit changes to llc_dequeue method to apply the CoDel algorithm to selectively drop LLC frames before they passed to the TBF layer to be encoded in BSNs. This feature is currently disabled by default. The CoDel state is managed per MS since the LLC queues are also kept in the MS objects. Note that there is still some buffering in the TBF objects, in the worst case (CS4) 3.5kByte + LLC-MTU octets are stored there. The resulting additional packet delay is not (yet) taken into account for CoDel. Also note that configuration changes are applied to new MS objects only. The following VTY commands are added to the 'pcu' node: - queue codel activates CoDel, the interval is selected by the implementation - queue codel interval <1-1000> activates CoDel with a fixed interval given in centiseconds (10ms-10s) - no queue codel deactivates CoDel Which interval value to use is still an open issue. For high speed links (e.g. Ethernet), CoDel suggests 100ms. For slower links, the expected RTT is recommended. The current implementation uses a default value of 2000ms. Measurements: Note that the following measurements depend on several other factors, most notably the interaction with the SGSN's flow control. They are just examples to give an idea how CoDel might influence some parameters. The measurements have been done with a single E71, first with a running ping only (Idle), then with an additional TCP download of a 360k file (Busy). The CoDel interval was set to 1s. - Idle : ping ~400ms, avg queue delay 0ms, dropped 0 - Busy, No CoDel: ping ~6s, avg queue delay 4-6s, dropped 0, scheduled 948, duration 54s - Busy, CoDel: ping 500-1500ms, avg queue delay ~600ms, dropped 77, scheduled 1040, duration 60s More measurements with two MS downloading in parallel (two independant measurements per case). - Busy, No CoDel: dropped 0, scheduled 1883, duration 121s dropped 19, scheduled 2003, duration 133s - Busy, CoDel: dropped 22, scheduled 1926, duration 116s dropped 22, scheduled 1955, duration 108s Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf

tbf: Add adaptive DL CS adjustment To cope with transmission failures due to bad radio conditions, a different coding scheme with more redundance can be used. This commit adds an implemenation that is based on the Ack/Nack ratio per PACKET DOWNLINK ACK/NACK message received from the MS. Basically the CS level is decreased, if the block error rate goes above cs_adj_upper_limit (default 33%), and it is increased, if the rate drops below cs_adj_lower_limit (default 10%). Only blocks that have been encoded with the current CS are taken into account.

Since the TLLI will be derived from the P-TMSI, the old TLLI must also be kept until the new TLLI has been used by both MS and SGSN. This commit modifies the TLLI handling of GprsMs accordingly. set_tlli() is only used with TLLIs derived from MS messages, confirm_tlli() is used with TLLIs derived from messages received from the SGSN. tlli() returns the value set by the MS. check_tlli() matches each of the TLLI used by either MS or SGSN as well as the old TLLI until it has been confirmed.

ms: Add GprsMs class to hold per-MS information Currently only TBF objects are used to handle the data flow between the MS and the SGSN. MS specific data (e.g. pending LLC frames, TLLI) is copied between successive TBFs. If all TBFs (uplink and downlink) are idle for some time, all information about the MS is discarded in the PCU. This makes the implementation of some features more difficult, e.g. proper TLLI and timing advance handling, connection based CS selection, and proper management of multiple TBF. This commit adds the GprsMs class that is intended to hold information directly related to the MS and to keep references to the active TBFs. The class is not yet integrated with the other PCU code. A GprsMs object container and MS specific fields (TA, CS) will be added in later commits. Note that calling detach_tbf() can possibly delete the MS object depending on the callback implementation.

llc: Use CoDel to drop packages from the LLC queue Currently packets are only dropped if they have reached their maximum life time. This leads to LLC queues being constantly filled under load, increasing the latency up to the maximum life time. This kind of bufferbloat hinders TCP's congestion avoidance algorithms. To keep the queues short, the CoDel active queue management algorithm can be used. This commit changes to llc_dequeue method to apply the CoDel algorithm to selectively drop LLC frames before they passed to the TBF layer to be encoded in BSNs. This feature is currently disabled by default. The CoDel state is managed per MS since the LLC queues are also kept in the MS objects. Note that there is still some buffering in the TBF objects, in the worst case (CS4) 3.5kByte + LLC-MTU octets are stored there. The resulting additional packet delay is not (yet) taken into account for CoDel. Also note that configuration changes are applied to new MS objects only. The following VTY commands are added to the 'pcu' node: - queue codel activates CoDel, the interval is selected by the implementation - queue codel interval <1-1000> activates CoDel with a fixed interval given in centiseconds (10ms-10s) - no queue codel deactivates CoDel Which interval value to use is still an open issue. For high speed links (e.g. Ethernet), CoDel suggests 100ms. For slower links, the expected RTT is recommended. The current implementation uses a default value of 2000ms. Measurements: Note that the following measurements depend on several other factors, most notably the interaction with the SGSN's flow control. They are just examples to give an idea how CoDel might influence some parameters. The measurements have been done with a single E71, first with a running ping only (Idle), then with an additional TCP download of a 360k file (Busy). The CoDel interval was set to 1s. - Idle : ping ~400ms, avg queue delay 0ms, dropped 0 - Busy, No CoDel: ping ~6s, avg queue delay 4-6s, dropped 0, scheduled 948, duration 54s - Busy, CoDel: ping 500-1500ms, avg queue delay ~600ms, dropped 77, scheduled 1040, duration 60s More measurements with two MS downloading in parallel (two independant measurements per case). - Busy, No CoDel: dropped 0, scheduled 1883, duration 121s dropped 19, scheduled 2003, duration 133s - Busy, CoDel: dropped 22, scheduled 1926, duration 116s dropped 22, scheduled 1955, duration 108s Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf

ms: Store references to replaced TBFs in the MS object Currently when calling GprsMs::attach_tbf and a TBF of the same direction already exists, the old TBF gets detached from the MS object. Therefore that TBF object loses access to that MS object including for instance TLLI and IMSI. This leads to failing DL TBF reuses, since the downlink assigment cannot be sent on the PACCH later on because that must be sent on the old DL TBF which ms() is NULL and the new DL TBF cannot be retrieved. This commit fixes this bug by changing the GprsMs implementation to keep a list of replaced (old) TBFs. TBFs are only removed when they are being detached explicitely (see tbf_free and set_ms).

This leads to LLC queues being constantly filled under load, increasing the latency up to the maximum life time. This kind of bufferbloat hinders TCP's congestion avoidance algorithms. To keep the queues short, the CoDel active queue management algorithm can be used. This commit changes to llc_dequeue method to apply the CoDel algorithm to selectively drop LLC frames before they passed to the TBF layer to be encoded in BSNs. This feature is currently disabled by default. The CoDel state is managed per MS since the LLC queues are also kept in the MS objects. Note that there is still some buffering in the TBF objects, in the worst case (CS4) 3.5kByte + LLC-MTU octets are stored there. The resulting additional packet delay is not (yet) taken into account for CoDel. Also note that configuration changes are applied to new MS objects only. The following VTY commands are added to the 'pcu' node: - queue codel activates CoDel, the interval is selected by the implementation - queue codel interval <1-1000> activates CoDel with a fixed interval given in centiseconds (10ms-10s) - no queue codel deactivates CoDel Which interval value to use is still an open issue. For high speed links (e.g. Ethernet), CoDel suggests 100ms. For slower links, the expected RTT is recommended. The current implementation uses a default value of 2000ms. Measurements: Note that the following measurements depend on several other factors, most notably the interaction with the SGSN's flow control. They are just examples to give an idea how CoDel might influence some parameters. The measurements have been done with a single E71, first with a running ping only (Idle), then with an additional TCP download of a 360k file (Busy). The CoDel interval was set to 1s. - Idle : ping ~400ms, avg queue delay 0ms, dropped 0 - Busy, No CoDel: ping ~6s, avg queue delay 4-6s, dropped 0, scheduled 948, duration 54s - Busy, CoDel: ping 500-1500ms, avg queue delay ~600ms, dropped 77, scheduled 1040, duration 60s More measurements with two MS downloading in parallel (two independant measurements per case). - Busy, No CoDel: dropped 0, scheduled 1883, duration 121s dropped 19, scheduled 2003, duration 133s - Busy, CoDel: dropped 22, scheduled 1926, duration 116s dropped 22, scheduled 1955, duration 108s Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf

ms: Store the NACK rate in the MS object Currently the NACK/unconfirmed ratio is already passed to the corresponding MS object, but the value is not being stored there. This commit adds a member and a getter method and include the values into the output of the 'show ms' command. Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf

ms: Add support for slot reservation In contrast to the slots currently used by existing TBFs, the reserved slots refer to the time slots that can be used for newly allocated TBFs without causing conflicts (given that the first common TS does not change). They correspond to the potential use of the PDCHs and can be used to achieve a more uniform slot allocation. This commit adds bit set based methods to GprsMs and gprs_rlcmac_trx and a counter to gprs_rlcmac_pdch. The current TRX will also be stored in the MS object. Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
