2014-06-13stasis: Reduce creation of channel snapshots to improve performanceMatthew Jordan
During some performance testing of Asterisk with AGI, ARI, and lots of Local channels, we noticed that there's quite a hit in performance during channel creation and releasing to the dialplan (ARI continue). After investigating the performance spike that occurs during channel creation, we discovered that we create a lot of channel snapshots that are technically unnecessary. This includes creating snapshots during: * AGI execution * Returning objects for ARI commands * During some Local channel operations * During some dialling operations * During variable setting * During some bridging operations And more. This patch does the following: - It removes a number of fields from channel snapshots. These fields were rarely used, were expensive to have on the snapshot, and hurt performance. This included formats, translation paths, Log Call ID, callgroup, pickup group, and all channel variables. As a result, AMI Status, "core show channel", "core show channelvar", and "pjsip show channel" were modified to either hit the live channel or not show certain pieces of data. While this is unfortunate, the performance gain from this patch is worth the loss in behaviour. - It adds a mechanism to publish a cached snapshot + blob. A large number of publications were changed to use this, including: - During Dial begin - During Variable assignment (if no AMI variables are emitted - if AMI variables are set, we have to make snapshots when a variable is changed) - During channel pickup - When a channel is put on hold/unhold - When a DTMF digit is begun/ended - When creating a bridge snapshot - When an AOC event is raised - During Local channel optimization/Local bridging - When endpoint snapshots are generated - All AGI events - All ARI responses that return a channel - Events in the AgentPool, MeetMe, and some in Queue - Additionally, some extraneous channel snapshots were being made that were unnecessary. These were removed. - The result of ast_hashtab_hash_string is now cached in stasis_cache. This reduces a large number of calls to ast_hashtab_hash_string, which reduced the amount of time spent in this function in gprof by around 50%. #ASTERISK-23811 #close Reported by: Matt Jordan Review: https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/3568/ ........

2014-03-07uniqueid: channel linkedid, ami, ari object creation with id'sScott Griepentrog
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.

2013-12-18channel locking: Add locking for channel snapshot creationKevin Harwell
Original commit message by mmichelson (asterisk 12 r403311): "This adds channel locks around calls to create channel snapshots as well as other functions which operate on a channel and then end up creating a channel snapshot. Functions that expect the channel to be locked prior to being called have had their documentation updated to indicate such." The above was initially committed and then reverted at r403398. The problem was found to be in core_local.c in the publish_local_bridge_message function. The ast_unreal_lock_all function locks and adds a reference to the returned channels and while they were being unlocked they were not being unreffed when no longer needed. Fixed by unreffing the channels. Also in bridge.c a lock was obtained on "other->chan", but then an attempt was made to unlock "other" and not the previously locked channel. Fixed by unlocking "other->chan" (closes issue ASTERISK-22709) Reported by: John Bigelow ........

2013-10-03Cache string values of formats on ast_format_cap() to save processing.Mark Michelson
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 ........

2013-09-13Restore Dial, Queue, and FollowMe 'I' option support.Richard Mudgett
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.

2013-08-22Massively clean up app_queue.Mark Michelson
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.

2013-08-01Fix documentation replication issuesKinsey Moore
This prevents XML documentation duplication by expanding channel and bridge snapshot tags into channel and bridge snapshot parameter sets with a given prefix or defaulting to no prefix. This also prevents documentation from becoming fractured and out of date by keeping all variations of the documentation in template form such that it only needs to be updated once and keeps maintenance to a minimum.

2013-07-25A great big renaming patchMatthew Jordan
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.

2013-07-08Create Local channel messages on the Stasis message bus and produce AMI eventsMatthew Jordan
This patch does the following: * It adds a virtual table of callbacks to core_unreal. These callbacks can be supplied by concrete implementations of "unreal" channel drivers, which lets the unreal channel driver call specific functionality when it performs some action. Currently, this is done to notify implementations when an optimization operation has begun, and when an optimization operation has succeeded. * It adds Stasis-Core messages for Local channel bridging and Local channel optimization. Local channel optimization is now two events: a Begin and an End. Some consumers of Stasis-Core may want to know when an operation is beginning so that they can 'prepare' their information; others will be more concerned about when the operation has completed, so that they can 'fix up' information. Stasis-Core allows for both, as does AMI. Review: https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/2552 git-svn-id: https://origsvn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/trunk@393801 65c4cc65-6c06-0410-ace0-fbb531ad65f3
