# Scheduler
The scheduler is called by the chain: nr_ul_indication()=>gNB_dlsch_ulsch_scheduler()
The main scheduler function is called by the chain: nr_ul_indication()=>gNB_dlsch_ulsch_scheduler()
It calls sub functions to process each physical channel (rach, ...)
It calls sub functions to process each physical channel (rach, ...)
The scheduler uses and internal map of used RB: vrb_map and vrb_map_UL, so each specific channel scheduler can see the already filled RB in each subframe (the function gNB_dlsch_ulsch_scheduler() clears these two arrays when it starts)

nr_schedule_ue_spec() is called
* calls nr_simple_dlsch_preprocessor()=> mac_rlc_status_ind() mac_rlc_status_ind() locks and checks directly inside rlc data the quantity of waiting data. So, the scheduler can allocate RBs

nr_generate_Msg2() if an RA process is ongoing, and pre-allocates the Msg. 3
* get_pdsch_to_harq_feedback() to schedule retransmission in DL
for PUSCH as well.
Calls nr_fill_nfapi_dl_pdu() to actually populate what should be done by the lower layers to make the Tx subframe
Calls nr_schedule_ulsch(): It is divided into the "preprocessor" and the
"postprocessor": the first makes the scheduling decisions, the second fills
nFAPI structures to indicate to the PHY what it is supposed to do. To signal
which users have how many resources, the preprocessor populates the
NR_sched_pusch_t (for values changing every TTI, e.g., frequency domain
allocation) and NR_sched_pusch_save_t (for values changing less frequently, at
least in FR1 [to my understanding], e.g., DMRS fields when the time domain
allocation stays between TTIs) structures. Furthermore, the preprocessor is an
exchangeable module that might schedule differently, e.g., one user for
phytest, multiple users in FR1, or maybe FR2: phytest is in
nr_ul_preprocessor_phytest(), for FR1 is nr_simple_ulsch_preprocessor() [under
development], for FR2 does not exist yet.
* calls preprocessor via pre_processor_ul(): the preprocessor is responsible
for allocating CCEs (using allocate_nr_CCEs()). Note that we do not yet have
scheduling requests or buffer status reports, and only one UE. E.g.,
nr_simple_ulsch_preprocessor():
1) check whether the current frame/slot plus K2 is an UL slot, and return if
not.
2) Find first free start RB in vrb_map_UL, and as many free consecutive RBs
as possible.
3) allocate a CCE for the UE (and return if it is not possible)
4) Calculate DMRS stuff (nr_save_pusch_fields()) and the TBS.
5) Mark used resources in vrb_map_UL.
* loop through all users: get a free HARQ PID using select_ul_harq_pid() and
update statistics. Fill nFAPI structures directly for PUSCH, and call
config_uldci() and fill_dci_pdu_rel15() for DCI filling and PDCCH messages.
Calls nr_schedule_ue_spec(). It is divided into the "preprocessor" and the
"postprocessor": the first makes the scheduling decisions, the second fills
nFAPI structures to indicate to the PHY what it is supposed to do. To signal
which users have how many resources, the preprocessor populates the
NR_UE_sched_ctrl_t structure of affected users. In particular, the field rbSize
decides whether a user is to be allocated. Furthermore, the preprocessor is an
exchangeable module that might schedule differently, e.g., one user for
phytest, multiple users in FR1, or maybe FR2: phytest is in
nr_preprocessor_phytest(), for FR1 is nr_simple_dlsch_preprocessor() [under
development], for FR2 does not exist yet.
* calls preprocessor via pre_processor_dl(): the preprocessor is responsible
for allocating CCEs and PUCCH (using allocate_nr_CCEs() and
nr_acknack_scheduling()) and deciding on the frequency/time domain
allocation. E.g., nr_simple_dlsch_preprocessor():
1) mac_rlc_status_ind() locks and checks directly inside rlc data the
quantity of waiting data.
2) return from the preprocessor if there is no data and no timing advance to
send,
3) otherwise, allocate a CCE for the UE (and return if it is not possible)
4) find a PUCCH occasion for HARQ
5a) check if there is a retransmission: if yes, find free resources to
transmit using the same resources, else
5b) calculate the necessary RBs needed to get a TBS large enough to hold all
data, or until no more resources are available
6) Mark taken resources in the vrb_map
* loop through all users: check if a new TA is necessary. Then, if a user has
allocated resources, compute its TBS, and fill nFAPI structures
(nr_fill_nfapi_dl_pdu() to populate what should be done by the lower layers
to make the Tx subframe). Update statistics (round, sent bytes).
