This section covers some locking fundamentals, as well as some information on
locking as it is used in Asterisk. It describes some of the ways that are used
and could be used to achieve deadlock avoidance. It also demonstrates the
unfortunate conclusion that with the use of recursive locks, none of the
constructs in use today are failsafe from deadlocks. Finally, it makes some
recommendations for new code being written. As proper locking strategies is a
complex subject, this section still has room for expansion and improvement.
This is a result of collaboration between Luigi Rizzo and myself on the
asterisk-dev mailing list.

An example is OpenBSD (confirmed on 4.3) that ships with gcc 3.3.4
This commit introduces a contstant SENTINEL which is declared as:

This commit merges in the rest of the code needed to support distributed device
state. There are two main parts to this commit.
Core changes:
- The device state handling in the core has been updated to understand device
state across a cluster of Asterisk servers. Every time the state of a device
changes, it looks at all of the device states on each node, and determines the
aggregate device state. That resulting device state is what is provided to
modules in Asterisk that take actions based on the state of a device.
New module, res_ais:
- A module has been written to facilitate the communication of events between
nodes in a cluster of Asterisk servers. This module uses the SAForum AIS
(Service Availability Forum Application Interface Specification) CLM and EVT
services (Cluster Management and Event) to handle this task. This module
currently supports sharing Voicemail MWI (Message Waiting Indication) and
device state events between servers. It has been tested with openais, though
other implementations of the spec do exist.
For more information on testing distributed device state, see the following doc:
- doc/distributed_devstate.txt

DUNDi uses a concept called the Entity ID for unique server identifiers. I have
pulled out the handling of EIDs and made it something available to all of Asterisk.
There is now a global Entity ID that can be used for other purposes as well, such
as code providing distributed device state, which is why I did this. The global
Entity ID is set automatically, just like it was done in DUNDi, but it can also be
set in asterisk.conf. DUNDi will now use this global EID unless one is specified
in dundi.conf.
The current EID for the system can be seen in the "core show settings" CLI command.
It is also available in the dialplan via the ENTITYID variable.

This commit adds some new features to the SMDI_MSG_RETRIEVE() dialplan function.
Previously, this function only allowed searching by the forwarding station.
I have added some options to allow you to also search for messages in the queue
by the message desk terminal ID, as well as the message desk number.
This originally came up as a suggestion on the asterisk-dev mailing list.

This upgrade adds the ~~ (concatenation) string operator to expr2.
While not needed in normal runtime pbx operation, it is needed when
raw exprs are being syntax checked. This plays into future syntax-
unification plans. By permission of atis, this addition in trunk
and the reason of why things are as they are will suffice to close
this bug.
I also added a short note about the previous addition of "sip show sched"
to the CLI in CHANGES, which I discovered I forgot in a previous commit.

Final round of changes for configure script logic for IMAP
Now if a directory is specified, then we will search that directory for
a source installation of the IMAP toolkit. If none is found, then we will
use that directory as the basis for detecting a package installation of
the IMAP c-client. If that check fails, then configure will fail.

This set of changes introduces TCP and TLS support for chan_sip. There are various
new options in configs/sip.conf.sample that are used to enable these features. Also,
there is a document, doc/siptls.txt that describes some things in more detail.
This code was implemented by Brett Bryant and James Golovich. It was reviewed
by Joshua Colp and myself. A number of other people participated in the testing
of this code, but since it was done outside of the bug tracker, I do not have their
names. If you were one of them, thanks a lot for the help!

the QUEUE_MAX_PENALTY and the newly introduced QUEUE_MIN_PENALTY during a call depending
on the amount of time passed. The purpose is to allow the call to open up to more (or maybe
just different) members without the caller's losing his place in the queue. See
configs/queuerules.conf.sample for an example of how to set up queue rules and configs/queues.conf.sample
for how to associate a rule with a queue.
Along with the functional changes, new CLI and manager commands exist to show the rules defined and
there is an additional CLI command to reload the queue rules.
Future enhancements that may be made: support for realtime queue rules and support for dynamically adding
a rule through the manager or CLI. Also a manager command to reload the queue rules (I'll probably write
this myself very soon).

Merge changes from team/russell/sla_updates.
This batch of changes to the SLA code does a few different things.
* I made the SLA code event driven instead of having to act in a lot of busy
loops while dialing things to wait for state changes. This makes the code
more efficient and readable at the same time.
* I have implemented a couple of new features. The first is inbound trunk
ringing timeouts. This is an option that defines how long to let an incoming
call on a trunk to ring.
* I have also implemented ring timeouts for stations. They may be specified
for the entire station, meaning it is how long to let the station ring before
giving up. You can also specify a ring timeout for a specific trunk on a
station. So, you can say that you only want a specific station to ring 5
seconds if it is line1 ringing, but otherwise, there is no timeout.
