Software installation and deployment
==========================================
This section describes the installation of the O-DU High on the reference hardware.
Libraries
-^^^^^^^^^^
+----------
+
+Following libraries are required to compile and execute O-DU High:
+
+- GCC
+ - Ubuntu : sudo apt install build-essential
+ - CentOS : sudo yum group install "Development Tools"
-- GCC version 4.6.3 and above
+ Ensure the version is 4.6.3 and above using
+
+ - gcc --version

+--------------
+
+- Create a folder to clone the O-DU High code into. The folder is hereafter referred to as <O-DU High Directory>.
+
+- Clone code into <O-DU High Directory>
+
+ git clone "https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/o-du/l2" && (cd "l2" && mkdir -p .git/hooks && curl -Lo `git rev-parse

- rte_os.h
- rte_per_lcore.h
- c. Build folder
+ c. Navigate to build folder
- - cd <rsys_directory>/l2/build/odu
+ - cd <O-DU High Directory>/l2/build/odu

- 2. Build CU Stub and RIC Stub:
-
- a. Execute steps in sections A.2 and A.3.
II. Execution
^^^^^^^^^^^^^

- - cd <intel_directory>/phy/
+ - cd <O-DU Low Directory>/phy/
- source ./setupenv.sh
b. Run O-DU Low binary :
- - cd <intel_directory>/FlexRAN/l1/bin/nr5g/gnb/l1
+ - cd <O-DU Low Directory>/FlexRAN/l1/bin/nr5g/gnb/l1
- To run in timer mode : ./l1.sh -e
- L1 is up when following prints are seen on console:
a. Setup environment:
- - cd <intel_directory>/phy/
+ - cd <O-DU Low Directory>/phy/
- source ./setupenv.sh
b. Run FAPI translator binary:
- - cd <intel_directory>/phy/fapi_5g/bin/
+ - cd <O-DU Low Directory>/phy/fapi_5g/bin/
- ./oran_5g_fapi --cfg=oran_5g_fapi.cfg
3. Execute CU Stub and RIC Stub:
- a. Run steps in sections B.1-B.3.
+ a. Run steps in sections A.I.1 through A.I.3 .
4. Execute DU:
a. DU execution folder
- - cd <rsys_directory>/l2/bin/odu
+ - cd <O-DU High Directory>/l2/bin/odu
b. Export WLS library path
- - export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<intel_directory>/phy/wls_lib/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
+ - export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<O-DU Low Directory>/phy/wls_lib/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
c. Run ODU binary
- ./odu
-D. Message Flow:
+C. Message Flow:
----------------
O-DU High opens WLS interface during bring up. Message exchanges can begin once the interface is ready.
-Following diagram shows P5 messages exchange with O-DU Low in timer mode.
