The previous behavior was to simply set the accountcode of an outgoing
channel to the accountcode of the channel initiating the call. It was
done this way a long time ago to allow the accountcode set on the SIP/100
channel to be propagated to a local channel so the dialplan execution on
the Local;2 channel would have the SIP/100 accountcode available.
SIP/100 -> Local;1/Local;2 -> SIP/200
Propagating the SIP/100 accountcode to the local channels is very useful.
Without any dialplan manipulation, all channels in this call would have
the same accountcode.
Using dialplan, you can set a different accountcode on the SIP/200 channel
either by setting the accountcode on the Local;2 channel or by the Dial
application's b(pre-dial), M(macro) or U(gosub) options, or by the
FollowMe application's b(pre-dial) option, or by the Queue application's
macro or gosub options. Before Asterisk v12, the altered accountcode on
SIP/200 will remain until the local channels optimize out and the
accountcode would change to the SIP/100 accountcode.
Asterisk v1.8 attempted to add peeraccount support but ultimately had to
punt on the support. The peeraccount support was rendered useless because
of how the CDR code needed to unconditionally force the caller's
accountcode onto the peer channel's accountcode. The CEL events were thus
intentionally made to always use the channel's accountcode as the
peeraccount value.
With the arrival of Asterisk v12, the situation has improved somewhat so
peeraccount support can be made to work. Using the indicated example, the
the accountcode values become as follows when the peeraccount is set on
SIP/100 before calling SIP/200:
SIP/100 ---> Local;1 ---- Local;2 ---> SIP/200
acct: 100 \/ acct: 200 \/ acct: 100 \/ acct: 200
peer: 200 /\ peer: 100 /\ peer: 200 /\ peer: 100
If a channel already has an accountcode it can only change by the
following explicit user actions:
1) A channel originate method that can specify an accountcode to use.
2) The calling channel propagating its non-empty peeraccount or its
non-empty accountcode if the peeraccount was empty to the outgoing
channel's accountcode before initiating the dial. e.g., Dial and
FollowMe. The exception to this propagation method is Queue. Queue will
only propagate peeraccounts this way only if the outgoing channel does not
have an accountcode.
3) Dialplan using CHANNEL(accountcode).
4) Dialplan using CHANNEL(peeraccount) on the other end of a local
channel pair.
If a channel does not have an accountcode it can get one from the
following places:
1) The channel driver's configuration at channel creation.
2) Explicit user action as already indicated.
3) Entering a basic or stasis-mixing bridge from a peer channel's
peeraccount value.
You can specify the accountcode for an outgoing channel by setting the
CHANNEL(peeraccount) before using the Dial, FollowMe, and Queue
applications. Queue adds the wrinkle that it will not overwrite an
existing accountcode on the outgoing channel with the calling channels
values.
Accountcode and peeraccount values propagate to an outgoing channel before
dialing. Accountcodes also propagate when channels enter or leave a basic
or stasis-mixing bridge. The peeraccount value only makes sense for
mixing bridges with two channels; it is meaningless otherwise.
* Made peeraccount functional by changing accountcode propagation as
described above.
* Fixed CEL extracting the wrong ie value for the peeraccount. This was
done intentionally in Asterisk v1.8 when that version had to punt on
peeraccount.
* Fixed a few places dealing with accountcodes that were reading from
channels without the lock held.

Whenever possible, audiohooks and framehooks will now be copied over
to the channel that the masquerading channel gets cloned into. This
should occur for all audiohooks and most framehooks. As a result,
in Asterisk 12.5 and up, the AUDIOHOOK_INHERIT function is now
deprecated and its behavior is essentially the new default for all
audiohooks, plus some additional audiohooks/framehooks.

In the past framehooks have had no capability to determine what frame types a hook
is actually interested in consuming. This has meant that code has had to assume they
want all frames, thus preventing native bridging.
This change adds a callback which allows a framehook to be queried for whether it
is consuming a frame of a specific type. The native RTP bridging module has also
been updated to take advantange of this, allowing native bridging to occur when
previously it would not.

When bridge locking was added for bridge snapshot creation, some
locations where bridge locking was added were not guaranteed to
actually have a bridge and locking NULL AO2 objects tends to cause
segfaults. This ensures that NULL bridges aren't locked.

Much needed was a way to assign id to objects on creation, and
much change was necessary to accomplish it. Channel uniqueids
and linkedids are split into separate string and creation time
components without breaking linkedid propgation. This allowed
the uniqueid to be specified by the user interface - and those
values are now carried through to channel creation, adding the
assignedids value to every function in the chain including the
channel drivers. For local channels, the second channel can be
specified or left to default to a ;2 suffix of first. In ARI,
bridge, playback, and snoop objects can also be created with a
specified uniqueid.
Along the way, the args order to allocating channels was fixed
in chan_mgcp and chan_gtalk, and linkedid is no longer lost as
masquerade occurs.

Bridges have two new optional properties, a creator and a name.
Certain consumers of bridges will automatically provide bridges that
they create with these properties. Examples include app_bridgewait,
res_parking, app_confbridge, and app_agent_pool. In addition, a name
may now be provided as an argument to the POST function for creating
new bridges via ARI.

There were still a few cases in which ATTENDEDTRANSFER and BLINDTRANSFER
wouldn't be set on channels involved with blind and attended transfers.
This would happen with features that were initialized by channel driver
specific mechanisms in multiparty calls. This patch resolves those cases
while attempted to keep the behavior for setting those variables as
consistent as possible.

Channel snapshots have string representations of the channel's native formats.
Prior to this change, the format strings were re-created on ever channel snapshot
creation. Since channel native formats rarely change, this was very wasteful.
Now, string representations of formats may optionally be stored on the ast_format_cap
for cases where string representations may be requested frequently. When formats
are altered, the string cache is marked as invalid. When strings are requested, the
cache validity is checked. If the cache is valid, then the cached strings are copied.
If the cache is invalid, then the string cache is rebuilt and copied, and the cache
is marked as being valid again.

The Dial, Queue, and FollowMe applications need to inhibit the bridging
initial connected line exchange in order to support the 'I' option.
* Replaced the pass_reference flag on ast_bridge_join() with a flags
parameter to pass other flags defined by enum ast_bridge_join_flags.
* Replaced the independent flag on ast_bridge_impart() with a flags
parameter to pass other flags defined by enum ast_bridge_impart_flags.
* Since the Dial, Queue, and FollowMe applications are now the only
callers of ast_bridge_call() and ast_bridge_call_with_flags(), changed the
calling contract to require the initial COLP exchange to already have been
done by the caller.
* Made all callers of ast_bridge_impart() check the return value. It is
important. As a precaution, I also made the compiler complain now if it
is not checked.
* Did some cleanup in parking_tests.c as a result of checking the
ast_bridge_impart() return value.
An independent, but associated change is:
* Reduce stack usage in ast_indicate_data() and add a dropping redundant
connected line verbose message.

This essentially makes app_queue usable again. From reviewboard:
* Reporting of transfers and call completion is done by creating stasis
subscriptions and listening for specific events in order to determine
when the call is finished (either via a transfer or hangup).
* Dial end messages have been added where they were previously missing.
* Queue stats are properly being updated again once calls have finished.
* AgentComplete stasis messages and AMI events are now occurring again.
* Mixmonitor starting has been factored into its own function and uses the
Mixmonitor API now instead of using ast_pbx_run()
In addition to the changes in app_queue, there are several supplementary changes as well:
* Queue logging now differentiates between attended and blind transfers. A
note about this is in the CHANGES file.
* Local channel optimization events now report more information. This
includes which of the two local channels involved is the destination of
the optimization, the channel that is replacing the destination local channel,
and an identifier so that begin and end events can be matched to each other.
The end events are now sent whether the optimization was successful or not and
includes an indicator of whether the optimization was successful.
* Changes were made to features and bridging_basic so that additional flags may
be set on a bridge. This is necessary because the queue requires that its
bridge only allows move-swap local channel optimizations into the bridge.

Dial and Queue would previously apply a new set of features whenever
bridging. These options would be based purely on the options supplied
to the dial/queue applications. This patch changes the function those
applications use to bridge calls so that the features will be added

them override the existing features.

could become invalid if the channel is moved to another bridge while it is

This patch renames the bridging* files to bridge*. This may seem pedantic
and silly, but it fits better in line with current Asterisk naming conventions:
* channel is not "channeling"
* monitor is not "monitoring"
etc.
A bridge is an object. It is a first class citizen in Asterisk. "Bridging" is
the act of using a bridge on a set of channels - and the API that fulfills that
role is more than just the action.
