res_audiosocket: fix temporarily unavailable

Author: Roman Pertsev Date: 2025-10-07

Operations on non-blocking sockets may return a resource temporarily unavailable error (EAGAIN or EWOULDBLOCK). This is not a fatal error but a normal condition indicating that the operation would block.

This patch corrects the handling of this case. Instead of incorrectly treating it as a reason to terminate the connection, the code now waits for data to arrive on the socket.

safe_asterisk: Resolve a POSIX sh problem and restore globbing behavior.

Author: Sean Bright Date: 2025-10-22

Resolves: #1554

res_stir_shaken: Add STIR_SHAKEN_ATTESTATION dialplan function.

Author: George Joseph Date: 2025-10-24

Also...

Resolves: #781

UserNote: The STIR_SHAKEN_ATTESTATION dialplan function has been added which will allow suppressing attestation on a call-by-call basis regardless of the profile attached to the outgoing endpoint.

Revert "pjsip: Move from threadpool to taskpool"

Author: Joshua C. Colp Date: 2025-10-27

This reverts commit bb6b76c2d8239b2665223dcbf6d507aa9aa4534e.

iostream.c: Handle TLS handshake attacks in order to resolve the issue of exce..

Author: Tinet-mucw Date: 2025-10-26

The TCP three-way handshake completes, but if the server is under a TLS handshake attack, asterisk will get stuck at SSL_do_handshake(). In this case, a timeout mechanism should be set for the SSL/TLS handshake process to prevent indefinite waiting during the SSL handshake.

Resolves: #1559

chan_pjsip: Disable SSRC change for WebRTC endpoints.

Author: George Joseph Date: 2025-10-21

Commit b333ee3b introduced a fix to chan_pjsip that addressed RTP issues with blind transfers and some SBCs. Unfortunately, the fix broke some WebRTC clients that are sensitive to SSRC changes and non-monotonic timestamps so the fix is now disabled for endpoints with the "bundle" parameter set to true.

Resolves: #1535

pjsip: Move from threadpool to taskpool

Author: Joshua C. Colp Date: 2025-09-23

This change moves the PJSIP module from the threadpool API to the taskpool API. PJSIP-specific implementations for task usage have been removed and replaced with calls to the optimized taskpool implementations instead. The need for a pool of serializers has also been removed as taskpool inherently provides this. The default settings have also been changed to be more realistic for common usage.

UpgradeNote: The threadpool_* options in pjsip.conf have now been deprecated though they continue to be read and used. They have been replaced with taskpool options that give greater control over the underlying taskpool used for PJSIP. An alembic upgrade script has been added to add these options to realtime as well.

safe_asterisk: Fix logging and sorting issue.

Author: George Joseph Date: 2025-10-17

Re-enabled "TTY=9" which was erroneously disabled as part of a recent security fix and removed another logging "fix" that was added.

Also added a sort to the "find" that enumerates the scripts to be sourced so they're sourced in the correct order.

Resolves: #1539

Fix Endianness detection in utils.h for non-Linux

Author: Christoph Moench-Tegeder Date: 2025-10-19

Commit 43bf8a4ded7a65203b766b91eaf8331a600e9d8d introduced endian dependend byte-swapping code in include/asterisk/utils.h, where the endianness was detected using the __BYTE_ORDER macro. This macro lives in endian.h, which on Linux is included implicitely (by the network-related headers, I think), but on FreeBSD the headers are laid out differently and we do not get __BYTE_ORDER the implicit way.

Instead, this makes the usage of endian.h explicit by including it where we need it, and switches the BYTE_ORDER/*ENDIAN macros to the POSIX-defined ones (see https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9799919799/basedefs/endian.h.html for standard compliance). Additionally, this adds a compile-time check for the endianness-logic: compilation will fail if neither big nor little endian can be detected.

Fixes: #1536

app_queue.c: Fix error in Queue parameter documentation.

Author: Ben Ford Date: 2025-10-20

When macro was removed in Asterisk 21, the parameter documentation in code was not updated to reflect the correct numerization for gosub. It still stated that it was the seventh parameter, but got shifted to the sixth due to the removal of macro. This has been updated to correctly reflect the parameter order, and a note has been added to the XML that states this was done after the initial commit.

Fixes: #1534

UpgradeNote: As part of Asterisk 21, macros were removed from Asterisk. This resulted in argument order changing for the Queue dialplan application since the macro argument was removed. Upgrade notice was missed when this was done, so this upgrade note has been added to provide a record of such and a notice to users who may have not upgraded yet.

devicestate: Don't publish redundant device state messages.

Author: Joshua C. Colp Date: 2025-10-17

When publishing device state check the local cache for the existing device state. If the new device state is unchanged from the prior one, don't bother publishing the update. This can reduce the work done by consumers of device state, such as hints and app_queue, by not publishing a message to them.

These messages would most often occur with devices that are seeing numerous simultaneous channels. The underlying device state would remain as in use throughout, but an update would be published as channels are created and hung up.

chan_pjsip: Add technology-specific off-nominal hangup cause to events.

Author: George Joseph Date: 2025-10-14

Although the ISDN/Q.850/Q.931 hangup cause code is already part of the ARI and AMI hangup and channel destroyed events, it can be helpful to know what the actual channel technology code was if the call was unsuccessful. For PJSIP, it's the SIP response code.

DeveloperNote: A "tech_cause" parameter has been added to the ChannelHangupRequest and ChannelDestroyed ARI event messages and a "TechCause" parameter has been added to the HangupRequest, SoftHangupRequest and Hangup AMI event messages. For chan_pjsip, these will be set to the last SIP response status code for off-nominally terminated calls. The parameter is suppressed for nominal termination.

res_audiosocket: add message types for all slin sample rates

Author: Sven Kube Date: 2025-10-10

Extend audiosocket messages with types 0x11 - 0x18 to create asterisk frames in slin12, slin16, slin24, slin32, slin44, slin48, slin96, and slin192 format, enabling the transmission of audio at a higher sample rates. For audiosocket messages sent by Asterisk, the message kind is determined by the format of the originating asterisk frame.

UpgradeNote: New audiosocket message types 0x11 - 0x18 has been added for slin12, slin16, slin24, slin32, slin44, slin48, slin96, and slin192 audio. External applications using audiosocket may need to be updated to support these message types if the audiosocket channel is created with one of these audio formats.

res_fax.c: lower FAXOPT read warning to debug level

Author: phoneben Date: 2025-10-03

Reading ${FAXOPT()} before a fax session is common in dialplans to check fax state. Currently this logs an error even when no fax datastore exists, creating excessive noise. Change these messages to ast_debug(3, …) so they appear only with debug enabled.

Resolves: #1509

endpoints: Remove need for stasis subscription.

Author: Joshua C. Colp Date: 2025-10-10

When an endpoint is created in the core of Asterisk a subscription was previously created alongside it to monitor any channels being destroyed that were related to it. This was done by receiving all channel snapshot updates for every channel and only reacting when it was indicated that the channel was dead.

This change removes this logic and instead provides an API call for directly removing a channel from an endpoint. This is called when channels are destroyed. This operation is fast, so blocking the calling thread for a short period of time doesn't have any noticeable impact.

app_queue: Allow stasis message filtering to work.

Author: Joshua C. Colp Date: 2025-10-10

The app_queue module subscribes on a per-dialed agent basis to both the bridge all and channel all topics to keep apprised of things going on involving them. This subscription has associated state that must be cleaned up when the subscription ends. This was done by setting a default router callback that only had logic to handle the case where the subscription ends. By using the default router callback all filtering for the subscription was disabled, causing unrelated messages to get published and handled by it.

This change makes it so that an explicit route is added for the message type used for the message indicating the subscription has ended and removes the default router callback. This allows message filtering to occur on publishing reducing the messages to app_queue to only those it is interested in.

taskpool: Fix some references to threadpool that should be taskpool.

Author: George Joseph Date: 2025-10-10

Resolves: #1478

Update contact information for anthm

Author: Anthony Minessale Date: 2025-10-10

chan_websocket.c: Change payload references to command instead.

Author: George Joseph Date: 2025-10-08

Some of the tests in process_text_message() were still comparing to the websocket message payload instead of the "command" string.

Resolves: #1525

func_callerid: Document limitation of DNID fields.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-10-06

The Dial() application does not propagate DNID fields, which is counter to the behavior of the other Caller ID fields. This behavior is likely intentional since the use of Dial theoretically suggests a new dialed number, but document this caveat to inform users of it.

Resolves: #1519

func_channel: Allow R/W of ADSI CPE capability setting.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-10-06

Allow retrieving and setting the channel's ADSI capability from the dialplan.

Resolves: #1514

UserNote: CHANNEL(adsicpe) can now be read or written to change the channels' ADSI CPE capability setting.

core_unreal: Preserve ADSI capability when dialing Local channels.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-10-06

Dial() already preserves the ADSI capability by copying it to the new channel, but since Local channel pairs consist of two channels, we also need to copy the capability to the second channel.

Resolves: #1517

func_hangupcause.c: Add access to Reason headers via HANGUPCAUSE()

Author: Igor Goncharovsky Date: 2025-09-04

As soon as SIP call may end with several Reason headers, we want to make all of them available through the HAGUPCAUSE() function. This implementation uses the same ao2 hash for cause codes storage and adds a flag to make difference between last processed sip message and content of reason headers.

UserNote: Added a new option to HANGUPCAUSE to access additional information about hangup reason. Reason headers from pjsip could be read using 'tech_extended' cause type.

sig_analog: Allow '#' to end the inter-digit timeout when dialing.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-10-03

It is customary to allow # to terminate digit collection immediately when there would normally be a timeout. However, currently, users are forced to wait for the timeout to expire when dialing numbers that are prefixes of other valid matches, and there is no way to end the timeout early. Customarily, # terminates the timeout, but at the moment, this is just rejected unless there happens to be a matching extension ending in #.

Allow # to terminate the timeout in cases where there is no dialplan match. This ensures that the dialplan is always respected, but if a valid extension has been dialed that happens to prefix other valid matches, # can be used to dial it immediately.

Resolves: #1510

func_math: Add DIGIT_SUM function.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-10-01

Add a function (DIGIT_SUM) which returns the digit sum of a number.

Resolves: #1499

UserNote: The DIGIT_SUM function can be used to return the digit sum of a number.

app_sf: Add post-digit timer option to ReceiveSF.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-10-01

Add a sorely needed option to set a timeout between digits, rather than for receiving the entire number. This is needed if the number of digits being sent is unknown by the receiver in advance. Previously, we had to wait for the entire timer to expire.

Resolves: #1493

UserNote: The 't' option for ReceiveSF now allows for a timer since the last digit received, in addition to the number-wide timeout.

codec_builtin.c: Adjust some of the quality scores to reflect reality.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-10-02

Among the lower-quality voice codecs, some of the quality scores did not make sense relative to each other.

For instance, quality-wise, G.729 > G.723 > PLC10. However, current scores do not uphold these relationships.

Tweak the scores slightly to reflect more accurate relationships.

Resolves: #1501

res_tonedetect: Fix formatting of XML documentation.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-10-02

Fix the indentation in the documentation for the variable list.

Resolves: #1507

res_fax: Add XML documentation for channel variables.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-10-02

Document the channel variables currently set by SendFAX and ReceiveFAX.

Resolves: #1505

channelstorage_cpp_map_name_id: Add read locking around retrievals.

Author: George Joseph Date: 2025-10-01

When we retrieve a channel from a C++ map, we actually get back a wrapper object that points to the channel then right after we retrieve it, we bump its reference count. There's a tiny chance however that between those two statements a delete and/or unref might happen which would cause the wrapper object or the channel itself to become invalid resulting in a SEGV. To avoid this we now perform a read lock on the driver around those statements.

Resolves: #1491

app_dial: Allow fractional seconds for dial timeouts.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-09-30

Even though Dial() internally uses milliseconds for its dial timeouts, this capability has been mostly obscured from users as the argument is only parsed as an integer, thus forcing the use of whole seconds for timeouts.

Parse it as a decimal instead so that timeouts can now truly have millisecond precision.

Resolves: #1487

UserNote: The answer and progress dial timeouts now have millisecond precision, instead of having to be whole numbers.

dsp.c: Make minor fixes to debug log messages.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-10-01

Commit dc8e3eeaaf094a3d16991289934093d5e7127680 improved the debug log messages in dsp.c. This makes two minor corrections to it:

Resolves: #1496

config_options.c: Improve misleading warning.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-09-30

When running "config show help ", if no XML documentation exists for the specified module, "Module not found." is returned, which is misleading if the module is loaded but simply has no XML documentation for its config. Improve the message to clarify that the module may simply have no config documentation.

Resolves: #1489

func_scramble: Add example to XML documentation.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-09-29

The previous lack of an example made it ambiguous if the arguments went inside the function arguments or were part of the right-hand value.

Resolves: #1485

sig_analog: Eliminate potential timeout with Last Number Redial.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-09-29

If Last Number Redial is used to redial, ensure that we do not wait for further digits. This was possible if the number that was last dialed is a prefix of another possible dialplan match. Since all we did is copy the number into the extension buffer, if other matches are now possible, there would thus be a timeout before the call went through. We now complete redialed calls immediaetly in all cases.

Resolves: #1483

ARI: The bridges play and record APIs now handle sample rates > 8K correctly.

Author: George Joseph Date: 2025-09-25

The bridge play and record APIs were forcing the Announcer/Recorder channel to slin8 which meant that if you played or recorded audio with a sample rate > 8K, it was downsampled to 8K limiting the bandwidth.

Resolves: #1479

DeveloperNote: The ARI /bridges/play and /bridges/record REST APIs have new parameters that allow the caller to specify the format to be used on the "Announcer" and "Recorder" channels respecitvely.

res_pjsip_geolocation: Add support for Geolocation loc-src parameter

Author: Max Grobecker Date: 2025-09-21

This adds support for the Geolocation 'loc-src' parameter to res_pjsip_geolocation. The already existing config option 'location_source` in res_geolocation is documented to add a 'loc-src' parameter containing a user-defined FQDN to the 'Geolocation:' header, but that option had no effect as it was not implemented by res_pjsip_geolocation.

If the location_source configuration option is not set or invalid, that parameter will not be added (this is already checked by res_geolocation).

This commits adds already documented functionality.

sorcery: Move from threadpool to taskpool.

Author: Joshua C. Colp Date: 2025-09-23

This change moves observer invocation from the use of a threadpool to a taskpool. The taskpool options have also been adjusted to ensure that at least one taskprocessor remains available at all times.

stasis_channels.c: Make protocol_id optional to enable blind transfer via ari

Author: Sven Kube Date: 2025-09-22

When handling SIP transfers via ARI, there is no protocol_id in case of a blind transfer.

Resolves: #1467

Fix some doxygen, typos and whitespace

Author: Bastian Triller Date: 2025-09-21

stasis_channels.c: Add null check for referred_by in ast_ari_transfer_message_..

Author: Sven Kube Date: 2025-09-18

When handling SIP transfers via ARI, the referred_by field in transfer_ari_state may be null, since SIP REFER requests are not required to include a Referred-By header. Without this check, a null value caused the transfer to fail and triggered a NOTIFY with a 500 Internal Server Error.

app_queue: Add NULL pointer checks in app_queue

Author: phoneben Date: 2025-09-11

Add NULL check for word_list before calling word_in_list() Add NULL checks for channel snapshots from ast_multi_channel_blob_get_channel()

Resolves: #1425

app_externalivr: Prevent out-of-bounds read during argument processing.

Author: Sean Bright Date: 2025-09-17

Resolves: #1422

chan_dahdi: Add DAHDI_CHANNEL function.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-09-11

Add a dialplan function that can be used to get/set properties of DAHDI channels (as opposed to Asterisk channels). This exposes properties that were not previously available, allowing for certain operations to now be performed in the dialplan.

Resolves: #1455

UserNote: The DAHDI_CHANNEL function allows for getting/setting certain properties about DAHDI channels from the dialplan.

taskpool: Update versions for taskpool stasis options.

Author: Joshua C. Colp Date: 2025-09-16

taskpool: Add taskpool API, switch Stasis to using it.

Author: Joshua C. Colp Date: 2025-08-06

This change introduces a new API called taskpool. This is a pool of taskprocessors. It provides the following functionality:

  1. Task pushing to a pool of taskprocessors
  2. Synchronous tasks
  3. Serializers for execution ordering of tasks
  4. Growing/shrinking of number of taskprocessors in pool

This functionality already exists through the combination of threadpool+taskprocessors but through investigating I determined that this carries substantial overhead for short to medium duration tasks. The threadpool uses a single queue of work, and for management of threads it involves additional tasks.

I wrote taskpool to eliminate the extra overhead and management as much as possible. Instead of a single queue of work each taskprocessor has its own queue and at push time a selector chooses the taskprocessor to queue the task to. Each taskprocessor also has its own thread like normal. This spreads out the tasks immediately and reduces contention on shared resources.

Using the included efficiency tests the number of tasks that can be executed per second in a taskpool is 6-12 times more than an equivalent threadpool+taskprocessor setup.

Stasis has been moved over to using this new API as it is a heavy consumer of threadpool+taskprocessors and produces a lot of tasks.

UpgradeNote: The threadpool_* options in stasis.conf have now been deprecated though they continue to be read and used. They have been replaced with taskpool options that give greater control over the underlying taskpool used for stasis.

DeveloperNote: The taskpool API has been added for common usage of a pool of taskprocessors. It is suggested to use this API instead of the threadpool+taskprocessor approach.

app_adsiprog: Fix possible NULL dereference.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-09-10

get_token can return NULL, but process_token uses this result without checking for NULL; as elsewhere, check for a NULL result to avoid possible NULL dereference.

Resolves: #1419

manager.c: Fix presencestate object leak

Author: Nathan Monfils Date: 2025-09-08

ast_presence_state allocates subtype and message. We straightforwardly need to clean those up.

audiohook.c: Ensure correct AO2 reference is dereffed.

Author: Sean Bright Date: 2025-09-10

Part of #1440.

res_cliexec: Remove unnecessary casts to char*.

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-09-09

Resolves: #1436

rtp_engine.c: Add exception for comfort noise payload.

Author: Ben Ford Date: 2025-09-09

In a previous commit, a change was made to ast_rtp_codecs_payload_code_tx_sample_rate to check for differing sample rates. This ended up returning an invalid payload int for comfort noise. A check has been added that returns early if the payload is in fact supposed to be comfort noise.

Fixes: #1340

pbx_variables.c: Create real channel for "dialplan eval function".

Author: Naveen Albert Date: 2025-09-09

"dialplan eval function" has been using a dummy channel for function evaluation, much like many of the unit tests. However, sometimes, this can cause issues for functions that are not expecting dummy channels. As an example, ast_channel_tech(chan) is NULL on such channels, and ast_channel_tech(chan)->type consequently results in a NULL dereference. Normally, functions do not worry about this since channels executing dialplan aren't dummy channels.

While some functions are better about checking for these sorts of edge cases, use a real channel with a dummy technology to make this CLI command inherently safe for any dialplan function that could be evaluated from the CLI.

Resolves: #1434
