Description

While running the existing test cases from ttcn3-bts-test on hopping channels (see #4546), I noticed that sometimes trxcon starts to consume a lot of CPU power. As it turned out, this happens because the burst loss detection logic in trxcon somehow detects that the whole TDMA hyper-frame is lost, so it tries to substitute ~2715647 allegedly lost TDMA frames with a dummy burst. Of course it's a bug, because we're not supposed to compensate more than one TDMA multi-frame period. So the problem was a missing 'return' statement:

https://gerrit.osmocom.org/c/osmocom-bb/+/19183 trxcon/scheduler: subst_frame_loss(): print current TDMA fn
https://gerrit.osmocom.org/c/osmocom-bb/+/19184 trxcon/scheduler: fix subst_frame_loss(): do not compensate too much

However, I was interested to know what exactly tricks the burst detection logic to think that so many frames are lost.

/*! Return the difference of two specified TDMA frame numbers (subtraction) */
#define GSM_TDMA_FN_SUB(a, b) \
        ((a + GSM_TDMA_HYPERFRAME - b) % GSM_TDMA_HYPERFRAME)

/* How many frames elapsed since the last one? */
elapsed = GSM_TDMA_FN_SUB(fn, lchan->tdma.last_proc);
if (elapsed > mf->period) {
        LOGP(DSCHD, LOGL_NOTICE, "Too many (>%u) contiguous TDMA frames elapsed (%u) " 
                                 "since the last processed fn=%u (current %u)\n",
                                 mf->period, elapsed, lchan->tdma.last_proc, fn);
        return -EIO;
} else if (elapsed == 0) {
        LOGP(DSCHD, LOGL_ERROR, "No TDMA frames elapsed since the last processed " 
                                "fn=%u, must be a bug?\n", lchan->tdma.last_proc);
        return -EIO;
}

And slightly more informative logging message gives us a hint:

sched_trx.c:640 Too many (>104) contiguous TDMA frames elapsed (2715647) since the last processed fn=633 (current fn=632)

so, a burst with TDMA fn=632 is for some reason received late, since we already received a burst with TDMA fn=633.

This is definitely unexpected, and of course subtraction would result in a huge number: ((632 + 2715648) - 633) % 2715648 == 2715647.

That can probably be solved by:
  • If last processed FN is higher than the one received, increment counter, log error and don't enqueue it.
  • When enqueueing, make sure it is included in the correct place in the linked list of the queue, so that content is always sorted by FN.

The problem is that unlike osmo-trx, fake_trx.py does not queue bursts before forwarding them. This means that all incoming bursts get passed through immediately as soon as they're received. I know that UDP does not guarantee packet sequencing, but this is not so important. Regardless of that, we deal with multiple UDP connections in a select() loop, so packet sequencing on the transport layer would not help much. There is always a chance of a race condition between the parallel TRXD connections.

If last processed FN is higher than the one received, increment counter, log error and don't enqueue it.

When enqueueing, make sure it is included in the correct place in the linked list of the queue, so that content is always sorted by FN.

This sounds interesting, but a) it may happen that the difference between fn1 and fn2 would be more than 1 TDMA frame, so we would need to maintain larger burst buffers and the measurement history; b) we somehow need to compensate lost bursts, and this decision needs to be made quick enough.

The problem is that unlike osmo-trx, fake_trx.py does not queue bursts before forwarding them.

I am afraid the proper way is to implement burst queuing (buffering) in fake_trx.py. This would make it more CPU hungry.

Any (more) suggestions and ideas are welcome!

Unfortunately, Python is not fast enough to handle the queues in time. Despite the relatively low CPU usage, fake_trx.py fails to scheduler everything during one TDMA frame period. This causes some of our TTCN-3 test cases to fail. Sigh :/

Here is what I see in the log output of osmo-bts-trx:
