A new xml element was created to manage the AMI actions documentation,
using AstXML.
To register a manager action using XML documentation it is now possible
using ast_manager_register_xml().
The CLI command 'manager show command' can be used to show the parsed
documentation.
Example manager xml documentation:
<manager name="ami action name" language="en_US">
<synopsis>
AMI action synopsis.
</synopsis>
<syntax>
<xi:include xpointer="xpointer(...)" /> <-- for ActionID
<parameter name="header1" required="true">
<para>Description</para>
</parameter>
...
</syntax>
<description>
<para>AMI action description</para>
</description>
<see-also>
...
</see-also>
</manager>

This patch adds 'const' tags to a number of Asterisk APIs where they are appropriate (where the API already demanded that the function argument not be modified, but the compiler was not informed of that fact). The list includes:
- CLI command handlers
- CLI command handler arguments
- AGI command handlers
- AGI command handler arguments
- Dialplan application handler arguments
- Speech engine API function arguments
In addition, various file-scope and function-scope constant arrays got 'const' and/or 'static' qualifiers where they were missing.

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.

Change NULL pointer check to be ast_strlen_zero.
The 'digit' variable is guaranteed to be non-NULL, so the if
statement could never evaluate true. Changing to ast_strlen_zero
makes the logic correct.
This was found while reviewing ast_channel_ao2 code review.

This commit introduces the first phase of an effort to manage documentation of the
interfaces in Asterisk in an XML format. Currently, a new format is available for
applications and dialplan functions. A good number of conversions to the new format
are also included.

In this commit:
- move the ast_register/unregister_app functions to module.h
to avoid the need to include pbx.h for the simpler apps;
- move the ast_group structure to channel.h to remove the
dependency of app.h on linkedlists.h
Note, this is a long process that I am doing in small steps.
The main difficulty is that now for each subsystem we
have a single header (e.g. channel.h) included by the subsystem
provider (usually one file, e.g. channel.c) and by its clients
(dozens of them, e.g. we have some 70+ apps and 30+ functions).
This requires the clients to include all the extra headers
required by the provider (eg. lock.h, linkedlists.h, definitions
of substructures...) even though many of the clients would be
just happy with opaque struct declarations and function prototypes.
The long term plan is to eventually rectify this structure
so that the compilation can become faster, and also APIs
are more stable.

build times - tested, there is no measureable difference before and
after this commit.
In this change:
use asterisk/compat.h to include a small set of system headers:
inttypes.h, unistd.h, stddef.h, stddint.h, sys/types.h, stdarg.h,
stdlib.h, alloca.h, stdio.h
Where available, the inclusion is conditional on HAVE_FOO_H as determined
by autoconf.
Normally, source files should not include any of the above system headers,
and instead use either "asterisk.h" or "asterisk/compat.h" which does it
better.
For the time being I have left alone second-level directories
(main/db1-ast, etc.).

through ast_mutex primitives.
To detect all occurrences, I have renamed the lock field in struct ast_channel
so it is clear that it shouldn't be used directly.
There are some uses in res/res_features.c (see details of the diff)
that are error prone as they try and lock two channels without
caring about the order (or without explaining why it is safe).

- restructured build tree and makefiles to eliminate recursion problems
- support for embedded modules
- support for static builds
- simpler cross-compilation support
- simpler module/loader interface (no exported symbols)

- don't declare a variable in the middle of a block
- keep track of the result of registration functions in load_module()

As partly documented in loader.c and include/asterisk/module.h,
modules are now expected to return all of their methods and flags
into a structure 'mod_data', and are normally loaded with RTLD_NOW
| RTLD_LOCAL, so symbols are resolved immediately and conflicts
should be less likely. Only in a small number of cases (res_*,
typically) modules are loaded RTLD_GLOBAL, so they can export
symbols.
The core of the change is only the two files loader.c and
include/asterisk/module.h, all the rest is simply adaptation of the
existing modules to the new API, a rather mechanical (but believe
me, time and finger-consuming!) process whose detail you can figure
out by svn diff'ing any single module.
Expect some minor compilation issue after this change, please
report it on mantis http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=6968
so we collect all the feedback in one place.
I am just sorry that this change missed SVN version number 20000!

In general, LOCAL_USER_ADD/REMOVE should be the first/last thing called in an
application. An exception is if there is some *fast* setup code that might
halt the execution of the application, such as checking to see if an argument
exists.
