Configuration Files and Linux Threading in the OAI RAN Code
OAI Webinar Series Chapter 1
Abstract: The OpenAirInterface configuration module offers easy configuration file parsing and command-line options setting. Through this webinar, you will learn:
1. How different options are taken into account
2. How to add an option in the source code
3. How the OpenAirInterface process synchronizes its multiple threads implementation (Inter-thread communication libraries in OAI use ‘intertask interface’ (ITTI) library for high-layer managers (RRC, NGAP, GTP-U))
4. How the thread-pool and the global multi-thread organization work for lower layers
