ASTERISK-23919 #close Reported by Malcolm Davenport Review: https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/3802 git-svn-id: https://origsvn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/trunk@419592 65c4cc65-6c06-0410-ace0-fbb531ad65f3	11 years ago
Matthew Jordan	a2c912e997	media formats: re-architect handling of media for performance improvements In the old times media formats were represented using a bit field. This was fast but had a few limitations. 1. Asterisk was limited in how many formats it could handle. 2. Formats, being a bit field, could not include any attribute information. A format was strictly its type, e.g., "this is ulaw". This was changed in Asterisk 10 (see https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Media+Architecture+Proposal for notes on that work) which led to the creation of the ast_format structure. This structure allowed Asterisk to handle attributes and bundle information with a format. Additionally, ast_format_cap was created to act as a container for multiple formats that, together, formed the capability of some entity. Another mechanism was added to allow logic to be registered which performed format attribute negotiation. Everywhere throughout the codebase Asterisk was changed to use this strategy. Unfortunately, in software, there is no free lunch. These new capabilities came at a cost. Performance analysis and profiling showed that we spend an inordinate amount of time comparing, copying, and generally manipulating formats and their related structures. Basic prototyping has shown that a reasonably large performance improvement could be made in this area. This patch is the result of that project, which overhauled the media format architecture and its usage in Asterisk to improve performance. Generally, the new philosophy for handling formats is as follows: * The ast_format structure is reference counted. This removed a large amount of the memory allocations and copying that was done in prior versions. * In order to prevent race conditions while keeping things performant, the ast_format structure is immutable by convention and lock-free. Violate this tenet at your peril! * Because formats are reference counted, codecs are also reference counted. The Asterisk core generally provides built-in codecs and caches the ast_format structures created to represent them. Generally, to prevent inordinate amounts of module reference bumping, codecs and formats can be added at run-time but cannot be removed. * All compatibility with the bit field representation of codecs/formats has been moved to a compatibility API. The primary user of this representation is chan_iax2, which must continue to maintain its bit-field usage of formats for interoperability concerns. * When a format is negotiated with attributes, or when a format cannot be represented by one of the cached formats, a new format object is created or cloned from an existing format. That format may have the same codec underlying it, but is a different format than a version of the format with different attributes or without attributes. * While formats are reference counted objects, the reference count maintained on the format should be manipulated with care. Formats are generally cached and will persist for the lifetime of Asterisk and do not explicitly need to have their lifetime modified. An exception to this is when the user of a format does not know where the format came from and the user may outlive the provider of the format. This occurs, for example, when a format is read from a channel: the channel may have a format with attributes (hence, non-cached) and the user of the format may last longer than the channel (if the reference to the channel is released prior to the format's reference). For more information on this work, see the API design notes: https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Media+Format+Rewrite Finally, this work was the culmination of a large number of developer's efforts. Extra thanks goes to Corey Farrell, who took on a large amount of the work in the Asterisk core, chan_sip, and was an invaluable resource in peer reviews throughout this project. There were a substantial number of patches contributed during this work; the following issues/patch names simply reflect some of the work (and will cause the release scripts to give attribution to the individuals who work on them).

Scott Griepentrog	80ef9a21b9	uniqueid: channel linkedid, ami, ari object creation with id's 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.

Mark Michelson	ee21eee7e0	Cache string values of formats on ast_format_cap() to save processing. 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. Review: https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/2879 ........

Matthew Jordan	33e7b76d1d	Hide the Surrogate channels from external consumers; kill Masquerade events This patch does three things: 1. It provides a Surrogate channel technology with a consolidated "implementation detail flag" on the channel technology. This tells consumers of Stasis that the creation of this channel is an implementation detail in Asterisk and can be ignored (if they so choose). This consolidates the conference recorder/announcer flags as well - these flags had no additional meaning beyond "ignore this channel please". 2. It modifies allocation of a channel in two ways: (a) If a channel technology can be determined from the name, we set it directly in the allocation routine. This prevents the initial publication of the message from going out with a NULL channel technology where possible. This lets Stasis consumers get the right channel technology on the first publication. (b) It reorganizes allocation to make use of the 'finalized' property on the channel. This was already used to know that a channel had completely finished its construction in the masquerade routine; now we also use it to know whether or not the setting of certain channel properties is occurring during or post construction. The various set routines were modified accordingly as well. 3. The masquerade event is now dead, Jim. It no longer served any purpose whatsoever - if you perform a call pickup you'll get a Pickup event; if you perform an attended transfer you will still get those events; if you steal a channel to put it elsewhere you'll get the corresponding NewExten or BridgeEnter events.

Matthew Jordan	cafc115896	A great big renaming patch 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.

Jonathan Rose	17c546173f	ARI: Bridge Playback, Bridge Record Adds a new channel driver for creating channels for specific purposes in bridges, primarily to act as either recorders or announcers. Adds ARI commands for playing announcements to ever participant in a bridge as well as for recording a bridge. This patch also includes some documentation/reponse fixes to related ARI models such as playback controls.
