SD-Core 1.4 Release | ||
=================== | ||
|
||
1.4.0 Release Details | ||
--------------------- | ||
|
||
SD-Core supports 4G & 5G network functions and includes APIs for configuration, | ||
telemetry, policy management. Access networks can connect to Access & Mobility | ||
Management Function (AMF) or Mobility Management Entity (MME) depending on the | ||
type of access used. Below is the summary of the features delivered in SD-Core | ||
1.4 Release. | ||
|
||
Highlights | ||
---------- | ||
|
||
Release 1.4.0 focuses on improving the quality of the source code, adding new | ||
automated checks in the CI/CD pipeline, bug fixes to increase stability, and | ||
several improvements in the UPF. All new functionality in this release | ||
contributes to better support of 5G Network functionality. | ||
|
||
**Go version**: Code-base was updated to use Go 1.21. | ||
|
||
**Linters**: Enable multiple linters and enforce them to check Go code. | ||
Additionally, enable linter for Dockerfile (hadolint) and linters for other | ||
components. | ||
|
||
**CI/CD pipeline**: GitHub Actions were enabled in all of the sd-core 5G | ||
components. Moreover, `Dependabot` was added to help manage dependency and | ||
security updates. | ||
|
||
**Docker images**: Full refactoring of Dockerfile to obtain the smallest | ||
possible size for the resulting Docker image. | ||
|
||
**Consolidated repositories**: Multiple small/tiny repositories were | ||
consolidated into the `util` repository such that the whole 5G sd-core is | ||
composed of as few as possible repositories. | ||
|
||
**Helm Charts and Documentation**: The repositories for the Helm Charts | ||
(sdcore-helm-charts) and Documentation (sdcore-docs) were moved from Gerrit to | ||
GitHub. Moreover,the Helm Charts for the UPF were moved from the | ||
`sdfabric-helm-charts` umbrella into the `sdcore-helm-charts` umbrella. | ||
|
||
**Network Functions**: Remove NRF caching in multiple network functions. A more | ||
up-to-spec caching will be re-enabled in the future. | ||
|
||
**Webui**: Improvements in this module include: | ||
|
||
* Add GET operations for DeviceGroups and Network Slices. | ||
* Storing configuration in mongodb (separate database collection for configuration). | ||
* Recovering configuration in case `webui` crashes. | ||
* Port for the `webui` is now configurable for all NFs (it was hard-coded before). | ||
|
||
**Sctp-Lb**: Full refactoring of SCTPLB code, including the SCTP load balancing | ||
algorithm and its Docker image (size decreased from ~1.2GB to 21.2MB) | ||
|
||
**Config 5G**: When deploying SD-Core, all services using this client code go | ||
into a tight loop using 100% of a CPU thread until webui is available and | ||
configured with a network slice. This issue was resolved by adding some small | ||
sleeps that will free up some CPU time. The worst case scenario with this sleep | ||
is that the service will take 5 seconds more to get configured after initial | ||
deployment. | ||
|
||
**gNBSim**: Several improvements were added to this component, including: | ||
|
||
* Add support for retransmit message. | ||
* Add support for statistics at procedure level and transaction level. | ||
* Add E2E latency measurements. | ||
* Add support for Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity (TMSI). | ||
* gNBSim can be deployed as a single Docker container, while the ``SD-Core`` runs | ||
in a Kubernetes cluster. | ||
|
||
**UPF**: The UPF was the component that has the most feature additions among all | ||
of the SD-Core components. Among the most relevant changes are: | ||
|
||
* Add GTPu path measurement/monitoring as specified in 3GPP TS 23.501 (Release 16). | ||
* Enable CNDP (Cloud Native Data Plane) as another mode of operation. | ||
* Make `BESS` to use a newer version of DPDK (i.e., DPDK-22.11). | ||
* Use `JSONC` format for the UPF's configuration instead of JSON to be able to | ||
add comments to configuration file. | ||
* Mark GTP (IP) packets with the same DSCP value as the inner IP packet. | ||
* Fix issue with GTP Echo response. | ||
* Improve documentation to deploy UPF in modes (AF_PACKET, AF_XDP, CNDP, DPDK). | ||
* Refactor route-control script to reduce complexity and to improve readability, | ||
logging, error handling, and threading. | ||
|
||
