CEL is the new system for logging channel events. This was inspired after
facing many problems trying to represent what is possible to happen to a call
in Asterisk using CDR records. For more information on CEL, see the built in
HTML or PDF documentation generated from the files in doc/tex/.
Many thanks to Steve Murphy (murf) and Brian Degenhardt (bmd) for their hard
work developing this code. Also, thanks to Matt Nicholson (mnicholson) and
Sean Bright (seanbright) for their assistance in the final push to get this
code ready for Asterisk trunk.

There is a lot that could be said about this, but the patch is a big
improvement for performance, stability, code maintainability,
and ease of future code development.
The channel list is no longer an unsorted linked list. The main container
for channels is an astobj2 hash table. All of the code related to searching
for channels or iterating active channels has been rewritten. Let n be
the number of active channels. Iterating the channel list has gone from
O(n^2) to O(n). Searching for a channel by name went from O(n) to O(1).
Searching for a channel by extension is still O(n), but uses a new method
for doing so, which is more efficient.
The ast_channel object is now a reference counted object. The benefits
here are plentiful. Some benefits directly related to issues in the
previous code include:
1) When threads other than the channel thread owning a channel wanted
access to a channel, it had to hold the lock on it to ensure that it didn't
go away. This is no longer a requirement. Holding a reference is
sufficient.
2) There are places that now require less dealing with channel locks.
3) There are places where channel locks are held for much shorter periods
of time.
4) There are places where dealing with more than one channel at a time becomes
_MUCH_ easier. ChanSpy is a great example of this. Writing code in the
future that deals with multiple channels will be much easier.
Some additional information regarding channel locking and reference count
handling can be found in channel.h, where a new section has been added that
discusses some of the rules associated with it.
Mark Michelson also assisted with the development of this patch. He did the
conversion of ChanSpy and introduced a new API, ast_autochan, which makes it
much easier to deal with holding on to a channel pointer for an extended period
of time and having it get automatically updated if the channel gets masqueraded.
Mark was also a huge help in the code review process.
Thanks to David Vossel for his assistance with this branch, as well. David
did the conversion of the DAHDIScan application by making it become a wrapper
for ChanSpy internally.
The changes come from the svn/asterisk/team/russell/ast_channel_ao2 branch.

The channel drivers which have been most heavily tested with these enhancements are
chan_sip and chan_misdn. Further work is being done to add Q.SIG support and will be
introduced in a later commit. chan_skinny has code added to it here, but according
to user pj, the support on chan_skinny is not working as of now. This will be fixed in
a later commit.
A special thanks goes out to bugtracker user gareth for getting the ball rolling and
providing the initial support for this work. Without his initial work on this, this would
not have been nearly as painless as it was.
This functionality has been tested by Digium's product quality department, as well as a
customer site running thousands of calls every day. In addition, many many many many bugtracker
users have tested this, too.

Fix a crash in the end_bridge_callback of app_dial and
app_followme which would occur at the end of an attended
transfer. The error occurred because we initially stored
a pointer to an ast_channel which then was hung up due
to a masquerade.
This commit adds a "fixup" callback to the bridge_config
structure to allow for end_bridge_callback_data to be
changed in the case that a new channel pointer is needed
for the end_bridge_callback.

- make data member of the ast_frame struct a named union instead of a void
Recently the ast_queue_hangup function got a new parameter, the hangupcause
Feedback came in that this is no good and that instead a new function should be created.
This I did.
The hangupcause was stored in the seqno member of the ast_frame struct. This is not very
elegant, and since there's already a data member that one should be used.
Problem is, this member was a void *.
Now it's a named union so it can hold a pointer, an uint32 and there's a padding in case someone
wants to store another type in there in the future.
This commit is so massive, because all ast_frame.data uses have to be
altered to ast_frame.data.data
Thanks russellb and kpfleming for the feedback.

Fix a deadlock involving channel autoservice and chan_local that was debugged
and fixed by mmichelson and me.
We observed a system that had a bunch of threads stuck in ast_autoservice_stop().
The reason these threads were waiting around is because this function waits to
ensure that the channel list in the autoservice thread gets rebuilt before the
stop() function returns. However, the autoservice thread was also locked, so
the autoservice channel list was never getting rebuilt.
The autoservice thread was stuck waiting for the channel lock on a local channel.
However, the local channel was locked by a thread that was stuck in the autoservice
stop function.
It turned out that the issue came down to the local_queue_frame() function in
chan_local. This function assumed that one of the channels passed in as an
argument was locked when called. However, that was not always the case. There
were multiple cases in which this channel was not locked when the function was
called. We fixed up chan_local to indicate to this function whether this channel
was locked or not. The previous assumption had caused local_queue_frame() to
improperly return with the channel locked, where it would then never get unlocked.

Make some deadlock related fixes. These bugs were discovered and reported
internally at Digium by Steve Pitts.
- Fix up chan_local to ensure that the channel lock is held before the local
pvt lock.
- Don't hold the channel lock when executing the timing function, as it can
cause a deadlock when using chan_local. This actually changes the code back
to be how it was before the change for issue #10765. But, I added some other
locking that I think will prevent the problem reported there, as well.

Fixing an issue wherein monitoring local channels was not possible. During a channel
masquerade, the monitors on the two channels involved are swapped. In 99% of the cases
this results in the desired effect. However, if monitoring a local channel, this caused
the monitor which was on the local channel to get moved onto a channel which is immediately
hung up after the masquerade has completed. By swapping the monitors prior to the masquerade,
we avoid the problem by tricking the masquerade into placing the monitor back onto the channel
where we want it.
During the investigation of the issue, the channel's monitor was the only thing that was swapped
in such a manner which did not make sense to have done. All other variable swapping made sense.

A big one...
This is the merge of the forward-loop branch. The main change here is that call-forwards can no longer loop.
This is accomplished by creating a datastore on the calling channel which has a linked list of all devices
dialed. If a forward happens, then the local channel which is created inherits the datastore. If, through this
progression of forwards and datastore inheritance, a device is attempted to be dialed a second time, it will simply
be skipped and a warning message will be printed to the CLI. After the dialing has been completed, the datastore
is detached from the channel and destroyed.
This change also introduces some side effects to the code which I shall enumerate here:
1. Datastore inheritance has been backported from trunk into 1.4
2. A large chunk of code has been removed from app_dial. This chunk is the section of code
which handles the call forward case after the channel has been requested but before it has
been called. This was removed because call-forwarding still works fine without it, it makes the
code less error-prone should it need changing, and it made this set of changes much less painful
to just have the forwarding handled in one place in each module.
3. Two new files, global_datastores.h and .c have been added. These are necessary since the datastore
which is attached to the channel may be created and attached in either app_dial or app_queue, so they
need a common place to find the datastore info. This approach was taken in case similar datastores are
needed in the future, there will be a common place to add them.

build times - tested, there is no measureable difference before and
after this commit.
In this change:
use asterisk/compat.h to include a small set of system headers:
inttypes.h, unistd.h, stddef.h, stddint.h, sys/types.h, stdarg.h,
stdlib.h, alloca.h, stdio.h
Where available, the inclusion is conditional on HAVE_FOO_H as determined
by autoconf.
Normally, source files should not include any of the above system headers,
and instead use either "asterisk.h" or "asterisk/compat.h" which does it
better.
For the time being I have left alone second-level directories
(main/db1-ast, etc.).
