18 A1 Mediator Release Notes
19 =========================
21 All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
23 The format is based on `Keep a Changelog <http://keepachangelog.com/>`__
24 and this project adheres to `Semantic Versioning <http://semver.org/>`__.
30 * Represents a resillent version of 1.0.0 that uses Redis for persistence
36 * Moves the "database" access calls to mimick the SDL API, in preparation for moving to SDL
37 * Does not yet actually use SDL or Redis, but the transition to those will be much shorter after this change.
44 * Represents v1.0.0 of the A1 API for O-RAN-SC Release A
46 - Implement type DELETE
47 - Clean up where policy instance cleanups happen
53 * Upgrade rmr to 1.9.0
54 * Upgrade rmr-python to 0.13.2
55 * Use the new helpers module in rmr-python for the rec all functionality
56 * Switch rmr mode to a multithreaded mode that continuously reads from rmr and populates an internal queue of messages with a deterministic queue size (2048) which is better behavior for A1
57 * Fix a memory leak (python obj is garbage collected but not the underlying C memory allocation)
64 * Implement instance delete
65 * Moves away from the status vector and now aggregates statuses
66 * Pop through a1s mailbox "3x as often"; on all 3 kinds of instance GET since all such calls want the latest information
67 * Misc cleanups in controller (closures ftw)
68 * Add rmr-version.yaml for CICD jobs
73 * Implement GET all policy type ids
74 * Implement GET all policy instance ids for a policy type
75 * fix a tiny bug in integration test receiver
80 * switch to rmr 1.8.1 to pick up a non blocking variant of rmr that deals with bad routing tables (no hanging connections / blocking calls)
81 * improve test receiver to behave with this setup
82 * add integration test for this case
83 * this also switches past 1.5.x, which included another change that altered the behavior of rts; deal with this with a change to a1s helmchart (env: `RMR_SRC_ID`) that causes the sourceid to be set to a1s service name, which was not needed prior
84 * improve integration tests overall
93 * Read type GET to get schema for instance PUT
94 * Remove Utils (no longer needed)
95 * lots more tests (unit and integration)
101 * This is on the road to release 1.0.0. It is not meant to be tested (E2E) as it's own release
102 * Implement the Release A spec in the openapi.yaml
103 * Rework A1 to follow that spec
104 * Remove rmr_mapping now that we use policyid as the mtype to send and a well known mtype for the ACKs
105 * Add the delay receiver test to the tavern integration tests
106 * Remove unneeded ENV variables from helm charts
107 * Switch away from builder images to avoid quicksand; upgrade rmr at our own pace
114 * Update to later rmr-python
115 * Add docs about upgrading rmr
116 * remove bombarder since tavern runs apache bench
123 * Update to later rmr-python
129 * Greatly reduce the size of A1 docker from 1.25GB to ~278MB.
130 * Add a seperate dockerfile for unit testing
137 * Rename all /ric/ URLs to be consistent with requirements of /a1-p/
145 * Implement the GET on policies
146 * Add a new endpoint for healthcheck. NOTE, it has been decided by oran architecture documents that this policy interface should be named a1-p in all URLS. In a future release the existing URLs will be renamed (existing URLs were not changed in this release).
154 * Fix the 400, which was in the API, but wasn't actually implemented
155 * Update the test fixture manifests to reflect the latest adm control, paves way for next feature coming which is a policy GET
164 * Use base Docker with NNG version 1.1.1
173 * Upgrade RMR due to a bug that was preventing rmr from init in kubernetes
182 * Run unit tests as part of docker build
191 * Convert docs to appropriate format
192 * Move rmr string to int mapping to a file
201 * Use tavern to test the actual running docker container
202 * Restructures the integration tests to run as a single tox command
203 * Re-ogranizes the README and splits out the Developers guide, which is not needed by users.
212 * Adds a defense mechanism against A1 getting queue-overflowed with messages A1 doesnt care about; A1 now ignores all incoming messages it's not waiting for, so it's queue size should now always be "tiny", i.e., never exceeding the number of valid requests it's waiting for ACKs back for
213 * Adds a test "bombarding" script that tests this
222 * Main purpose of this change is to fix a potential race condition where A1 sends out M1 expecting ACK1, and while waiting for ACK1, sends out M2 expecting ACK2, but gets back ACK2, ACK1. Prior to this change, A1 may have eaten ACK2 and never fufilled the ACK1 request.
223 * Fix a bug in the unit tests (found using a fresh container with no RIC manifest!)
224 * Fix a (critical) bug in a1rmr due to a rename in the last iteration (RMR_ERR_RMR_RCV_RETRY_INTERVAL)
225 * Make unit tests faster by setting envs in tox
226 * Move to the now publically available rmr-python
227 * Return a 400 if am xapp does not expect a body, but the PUT provides one
228 * Adds a new test policy to the example RIC manifest and a new delayed receiver to test the aformentiond race condition
237 * Upgrade to rmr 0.10.0
238 * Fix bad api spec RE GET
239 * Fix a (big) bug where transactionid wasn't being checked, which wouldn't have worked on sending two policies to the same downstream policy handler
248 * Rip some testing structures out of here that should have been in rmr (those are now in rmr 0.9.0, upgrade to that)
249 * Run Python BLACK for formatting
258 * Fix a blocking execution bug by moving from rmr's timeout to a non blocking call + retry loop + asyncronous sleep
259 * Changes the ENV RMR_RCV_TIMEOUT to RMR_RCV_RETRY_INTERVAL
268 * Update to rmr 0.8.3
269 * Change 503 to 504 for the case where downstream does not reply, per recommendation
270 * Add a 502 with different reasons if the xapp replies but with a bad/malformed/missing status
271 * Make testing much more modular, in anticipating of moving some unit test functionality into rmr itself
280 * Crash immediately if manifest isn't mounted
281 * Add unit tests for utils
291 * Upgrade A1 to rmr 0.8.0
292 * Go from deb RMR installation to git
293 * Remove obnoxious receiver logging
302 * Upgrade A1 to rmr 0.6.0
311 * Add license headers
320 * Introduce RIC Manifest
321 * Move some testing functionality into a helper module
322 * Read the policyname to rmr type mapping from manifest
323 * Do PUT payload validation based on the manifest
332 * Bump rmr python dep version
333 * Include a Dockerized test receiver
334 * Stencil out the mising GET
336 * Include a test docker compose file
345 * Initial Implementation
