This branch adds additional methods to dialplan functions, whereby the result
buffers are now dynamic buffers, which can be expanded to the size of any
result. No longer are variable substitutions limited to 4095 bytes of data.
In addition, the common case of needing buffers much smaller than that will
enable substitution to only take up the amount of memory actually needed.
The existing variable substitution routines are still available, but users
of those API calls should transition to using the dynamic-buffer APIs.

Resolve a crash in res_smdi when used with chan_dahdi.
When chan_dahdi goes to get an SMDI message, it provides no search criteria.
It just grabs the next message that arrives. This code was written with the
SMDI dialplan functions in mind, since that is now the preferred method of
using SMDI. However, this broke support of it being used from chan_dahdi.

There is a lot that could be said about this, but the patch is a big
improvement for performance, stability, code maintainability,
and ease of future code development.
The channel list is no longer an unsorted linked list. The main container
for channels is an astobj2 hash table. All of the code related to searching
for channels or iterating active channels has been rewritten. Let n be
the number of active channels. Iterating the channel list has gone from
O(n^2) to O(n). Searching for a channel by name went from O(n) to O(1).
Searching for a channel by extension is still O(n), but uses a new method
for doing so, which is more efficient.
The ast_channel object is now a reference counted object. The benefits
here are plentiful. Some benefits directly related to issues in the
previous code include:
1) When threads other than the channel thread owning a channel wanted
access to a channel, it had to hold the lock on it to ensure that it didn't
go away. This is no longer a requirement. Holding a reference is
sufficient.
2) There are places that now require less dealing with channel locks.
3) There are places where channel locks are held for much shorter periods
of time.
4) There are places where dealing with more than one channel at a time becomes
_MUCH_ easier. ChanSpy is a great example of this. Writing code in the
future that deals with multiple channels will be much easier.
Some additional information regarding channel locking and reference count
handling can be found in channel.h, where a new section has been added that
discusses some of the rules associated with it.
Mark Michelson also assisted with the development of this patch. He did the
conversion of ChanSpy and introduced a new API, ast_autochan, which makes it
much easier to deal with holding on to a channel pointer for an extended period
of time and having it get automatically updated if the channel gets masqueraded.
Mark was also a huge help in the code review process.
Thanks to David Vossel for his assistance with this branch, as well. David
did the conversion of the DAHDIScan application by making it become a wrapper
for ChanSpy internally.
The changes come from the svn/asterisk/team/russell/ast_channel_ao2 branch.

Properly handle @s within hints in AEL.
AEL was not handling the case of a device hint containing an @ symbol, which
caused parking hints (e.g. hint(park:exten@context)) to error out the parser.
This patch makes AEL treat the @ the same way it treats colon and ampersand
now, meaning the characters are included in verbatim.

The moh_register function links an mohclass and then immediately
unrefs the class since the container now has a reference. The problem
with using realtime music on hold is that the class is allocated,
registered, and started in one fell swoop. The refcounting logic
resulted in the count being off by one. The same problem did not
happen when using a static config because the allocation and registration
of an mohclass is a separate operation from starting moh. This also did
not affect non-cached realtime moh because the classes are not registered
at all.
I also have modified res_musiconhold to use the _t_ variants of the ao2_
functions so that more info can be gleaned when attempting to trace the
refcounts. I found this to be incredibly helpful for debugging this issue
and there's no good reason to remove it.

The channel drivers which have been most heavily tested with these enhancements are
chan_sip and chan_misdn. Further work is being done to add Q.SIG support and will be
introduced in a later commit. chan_skinny has code added to it here, but according
to user pj, the support on chan_skinny is not working as of now. This will be fixed in
a later commit.
A special thanks goes out to bugtracker user gareth for getting the ball rolling and
providing the initial support for this work. Without his initial work on this, this would
not have been nearly as painless as it was.
This functionality has been tested by Digium's product quality department, as well as a

This code comes from svn/asterisk/team/russell/event_performance/.
Here is a summary of the changes that have been made, in order of both
invasiveness and performance impact, from smallest to largest.
1) Asterisk 1.6.1 introduces some additional logic to be able to handle
distributed device state. This functionality comes at a cost.
One relatively minor change in this patch is that the extra processing
required for distributed device state is now completely bypassed if
it's not needed.
2) One of the things that I noticed when profiling this code was that a
_lot_ of time was spent doing string comparisons. I changed the way
strings are represented in an event to include a hash value at the front.
So, before doing a string comparison, we do an integer comparison on the
hash.
3) Finally, the code that handles the event cache has been re-written.
I tried to do this in a such a way that it had minimal impact on the API.
I did have to change one API call, though - ast_event_queue_and_cache().
However, the way it works now is nicer, IMO. Each type of event that
can be cached (MWI, device state) has its own hash table and rules for
hashing and comparing objects. This by far made the biggest impact on
performance.
For additional details regarding this code and how it was tested, please see the
review request.

Fix cases where the internal poll() was not being used when it needed to be.
We have seen a number of problems caused by poll() not working properly on
Mac OSX. If you search around, you'll find a number of references to using
select() instead of poll() to work around these issues. In Asterisk, we've
had poll.c which implements poll() using select() internally. However, we
were still getting reports of problems.
vadim investigated a bit and realized that at least on his system, even
though we were compiling in poll.o, the system poll() was still being used.
So, the primary purpose of this patch is to ensure that we're using the
internal poll() when we want it to be used.
The changes are:
1) Remove logic for when internal poll should be used from the Makefile.
Instead, put it in the configure script. The logic in the configure
script is the same as it was in the Makefile. Ideally, we would have
a functionality test for the problem, but that's not actually possible,
since we would have to be able to run an application on the _target_
system to test poll() behavior.
2) Always include poll.o in the build, but it will be empty if AST_POLL_COMPAT
is not defined.
3) Change uses of poll() throughout the source tree to ast_poll(). I feel
that it is good practice to give the API call a new name when we are
changing its behavior and not using the system version directly in all cases.
So, normally, ast_poll() is just redefined to poll(). On systems where
AST_POLL_COMPAT is defined, ast_poll() is redefined to ast_internal_poll().
4) Change poll() in main/poll.c to be ast_internal_poll().
It's worth noting that any code that still uses poll() directly will work fine
(if they worked fine before). So, for example, out of tree modules that are
using poll() will not stop working or anything. However, for modules to work
properly on Mac OSX, ast_poll() needs to be used.

Improve the build system to *properly* remove unnecessary symbols from the runtime global namespace. Along the way, change the prefixes on some internal-only API calls to use a common prefix.
With these changes, for a module to export symbols into the global namespace, it must have *both* the AST_MODFLAG_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS flag and a linker script that allows the linker to leave the symbols exposed in the module's .so file (see res_odbc.exports for an example).

between each and gives a general overview of what timing is used for in
Asterisk. There is also a section which can be used to help customize
your setup or to troubleshoot timing issues you may have.
I also added messages to the DAHDI timing test used in res_timing_dahdi.c
that points to this new documentation if people experience problems.

This patch fixes a regression of sorts that was introduced in
rev 24425.
It basically fixes AST-190/ABE-1782.
What was wrong: the user has 6000 extensions in one context; and
then 6000 contexts, one per extension. The parser could only handle
about 4893 of the 6000 extens in the single context.
This was due to the regression I mentioned. To get rid of
shift/reduce conflicts, Luigi set up right-recursive lists
for globals, context elements, switch lists, and statements.
Right recursive lists got rid of the warnings, but instead, they
use up a tremendous amount of stack space when the lists are long.
I saw this a few years back, and resolved not to fix it until
someone complained. That day has arrived!
After the changes were made, I ran the regression test suite,
and there were no problems.
I took the test case the user provided, and added 100,000
extensions to the single context, that already had 6,000 extens
in it. (I'll see your 6, and raise you 100!) It takes a few minutes
to read it all in, check it and generate code for it, but no
problems.
So, I think I can say that fundamentally, there are no longer
any limits on the number of items you can place in contexts,
statement blocks, switches, or globals, beyond your virt mem
constraints.

This patch includes a number of changes to the indications API. The primary
motivation for this work was to improve stability. The object management
in this API was significantly flawed, and a number of trivial situations could
cause crashes.
The changes included are:
1) Remove the module res_indications. This included the critical functionality
that actually loaded the indications configuration. I have seen many people
have Asterisk problems because they accidentally did not have an
indications.conf present and loaded. Now, this code is in the core,
and Asterisk will fail to start without indications configuration.
There was one part of res_indications, the dialplan applications, which did
belong in a module, and have been moved to a new module, app_playtones.
2) Object management has been significantly changed. Tone zones are now
managed using astobj2, and it is no longer possible to crash Asterisk by
issuing a reload that destroys tone zones while they are in use.
3) The API documentation has been filled out.
4) The API has been updated to follow our naming conventions.
5) Various bits of code throughout the tree have been updated to account
for the API update.
6) Configuration parsing has been mostly re-written.
7) "Code cleanup"
The code is from svn/asterisk/team/russell/indications/.

This sequence of events posed a problem
timerfd_timer_open
timerfd_timer_enable_continuous
timerfd_timer_set_rate
timerfd_timer_disable_continuous
The reason was that the timing module was written under the assumption
that timerfd_timer_set_rate would not be called between enabling and
disabling continuous mode. What happened in this situation was that
timerfd_timer_enable_continuous saved off our previously set timer (in this
situation a 0 timer, meaning it never runs out). Then timerfd_timer_disable_continuous
would restore this 0 timer, even though it logically should set the timer to be whatever
was set in timerfd_timer_set_rate.
Now the behavior in timerfd_timer_set_rate is to overwrite the saved timer that may
or may not have been set in timerfd_timer_enable_continuous. Even if
timerfd_timer_enable_continuous has not been previously called, this will not harm the
operation.
Thanks to Terry Wilson for discovering the problem and giving me a really great debug
capture that pointed out the problem clearly
