Asterisk The Open Source PBX & Telephony Platform

The Asterisk Development Team is pleased to announce the second release candidate of Asterisk 10.2.0. This release candidate is available for immediate download at http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/

The release of Asterisk 10.2.0-rc2 resolves several issues reported by the community and would have not been possible without your participation.
Thank you!

The following is a sample of the issues resolved in this release candidate:

  • Fix deadlocks occuring in chan_agent.Bad locking order was added to chan_agent to prevent a segfault that occurred due to a race condition. This patch addresses the bad locking order by locking
    the channel and its private data in the correct order. This stops the deadlock, which occurred when doing multiple interactions with agents. (closes issue ASTERISK-19285) Reported by: Alex Villacis Lasso
  • Include iLBC source code for distribution with AsteriskClarification regarding the iLBC source code was provided by Google, and the appropriate licenses have been included in the codecs/ilbc folder.
    (closes issue: ASTERISK-18943) Reporter: Leif Madsen
  • Fix crash from bridge channel hangup race condition in ConfBridgeThis patch addresses two issues in ConfBridge and the channel bridge layer:
    1. It fixes a race condition wherein the bridge channel could be hung up
    2. It removes the deadlock avoidance from the bridging layer and makes the bridge_pvt an ao2 ref counted object
    (issue ASTERISK-18988, ASTERISK-18885, ASTERISK-19100)
    Reported by: Dmitry Melekhov, Alexander Akimov
  • Don’t do a DNS lookup on an outbound REGISTER host if there is an outbound proxy configured.
    (closes issue ASTERISK-16550) reported by: Olle Johansson
  • Create and initialize udptl only when a dialog negotiates for image mediaPrior to this patch, the udptl struct was allocated and initialized when a dialog was associated with a peer that supported T.38, when a new SIP channel was allocated, or when an INVITE request was received. This resulted in any dialog associated with a peer that supported T.38 having udptl support assigned to it, including the UDP ports needed for communication. This patch creates and initializes the udptl structure only when the SDP for a dialog specifies that image media is supported, or when Asterisk indicates that a dialog needs to support T.38.
    (closes issue ASTERISK-16698, ASTERISK-16794)
    Reported by: under, Elazar; Tested by: Stefan Schmidt
  • Allow only one thread at time to do Asterisk cleanup/shutdownAdd locking around the really-really-quit part of the core stop/restart part. Previously more than one thread could be called to do cleanup, causing atexit handlers to be run multiple times, in turn causing segfaults. (issue ASTERISK-18883)
    Patch by: Walter Doekes
  • Fix outbound DTMF for inband mode in chan_ooh323This tells asterisk core to generate DTMF sounds. (Closes issue ASTERISK-19233) Reported by: Matt Behrens Patches:
    chan_ooh323.c.patch uploaded by Matt Behrens (License #6346)

Asterisk 10.0.0-rc3 Now Available

Asterisk The Open Source PBX & Telephony Platform

Asterisk The Open Source PBX & Telephony Platform

The Asterisk Development Team has announced the third release candidate of Asterisk 10.0.0. This release candidate is available for immediate download at http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/

The release of Asterisk 10.0.0-rc3 resolves several issues reported by the community and would have not been possible without your participation.
Thank you!

The following is a sample of the issues resolved in this release candidate:

  • Add ASTSBINDIR to the list of configurable pathsThis patch also makes astdb2sqlite3 and astcanary use the configured directory instead of relying on $PATH.
  • Don’t crash on INFO automon request with no channel
    AST-2011-014. When automon was enabled in features.conf, it was possible to crash Asterisk by sending an INFO request if no channel had been created yet.
  • Fixed crash from orphaned MWI subscriptions in chan_sip
    This patch resolves the issue where MWI subscriptions are orphaned by subsequent SIP SUBSCRIBE messages.
  • Fix a change in behavior in ‘database show’ from 1.8.In 1.8 and previous versions, one could use any fullword portion of the key name, including the full key, to obtain the record. Until this patch, this did not work for the full key.
  • Default to nat=yes; warn when nat in general and peer differ
    AST-2011-013. It is possible to enumerate SIP usernames when the general and user/peer nat settings differ in whether to respond to the port a request is sent from or the port listed for responses in the Via header. In 1.4 and
    1.6.2, this would mean if one setting was nat=yes or nat=route and the other was either nat=no or nat=never. In 1.8 and 10, this would mean when one was nat=force_rport and the other was nat=no.In order to address this problem, it was decided to switch the default behavior to nat=yes/force_rport as it is the most commonly used option and to strongly discourage setting nat per-peer/user when at all possible.
  • Fixed SendMessage stripping extension from To: header in SIP MESSAGEWhen using the MessageSend application to send a SIP MESSAGE to a non-peer, chan_sip stripped off the extension and failed to add it back to the sip_pvt structure before transmitting. This patch adds the full URI passed in from the message core to the sip_pvt structure.
