deadlock prevention in place in chan_local, but it would not work in a specific
case because the channel was recursively locked. By unlocking the channel prior
to calling the generator's generate callback in ast_read_generator_actions(), we
prevent the recursive locking, and therefore the deadlock.

If an event comes during this period, we need to set an indicator that there is an
event pending so that the manager doesn't attempt to wait forever for an event that
already happened.

asterisk-users, where a user was using Playback, but needed the
features of Background, and had no idea that Background existed,
or that it might provide the features he needed. I thought the
best way to avert these kinds of queries was to provide "See Also"
references in all three of "Background", "Playback", "WaitExten".
Perhaps a project to do this with all related apps is in order.

after (about 200ms later) an "incorrectly" sized frame was received.
While it would be very nice to keep this as optimized as possible, it makes no sense
for the smoother to be dropping random bits of audio like this. Isn't that the
whole point of a smoother?

This really should not make a difference except in very rare cases. That case would
be that all of the channels in autoservice are not generating any frames. In that
case, this change reduces the potential amount of time that a thread waits in
ast_autoservice_stop() for the autoservice thread to wrap back around to the beginning
of its loop.

I didn't give tzafrir very much time to test this, but if he does
still have remaining issues, he is welcome to
re-open this bug, and we'll do what is called for.
I reproduced the problem, and tested the fix, so I hope I
am not jumping by just going ahead and committing the fix.
The problem was with what file_save does with templates;
firstly, it tended to print out multiple options:
[my_category](!)(templateref)
instead of
[my_category](!,templateref)
which is fixed by this patch.
Nextly, the code to suppress output of duplicate declarations
that would occur because the reader copies inherited declarations
down the hierarchy, was not working. Thus:
[master-template](!)
mastervar = bar
[template](!,master-template)
tvar = value
[cat](template)
catvar = val
would be rewritten as:
;!
;! Automatically generated configuration file
;! Filename: experiment.conf (/etc/asterisk/experiment.conf)
;! Generator: Manager
;! Creation Date: Tue Mar 18 23:17:46 2008
;!
[master-template](!)
mastervar = bar
[template](!,master-template)
mastervar = bar
tvar = value
[cat](template)
mastervar = bar
tvar = value
catvar = val
This has been fixed. Since the config reader 'explodes' inherited
vars into the category, users may, in certain circumstances, see
output different from what they originally entered, but it should
be both correct and equivalent.

via the "core show locks" command. The idea behind this section of code was
to remove the previous lock from the list if it was a trylock that had failed.
Unfortunately, instead of checking the status of the previous lock, we were referencing
the index immediately following the previous lock in the lock_info->locks array.
The result of this problem, under the right circumstances, was that the lock which
we currently in the process of attempting to acquire could "overwrite" the previous lock
which was acquired. While this does not in any way affect typical operation, it *could*
lead to misleading "core show locks" output.

datastore callback, called chan_fixup(). The concept is exactly like the
fixup callback that is used in the channel technology interface. This callback
gets called when the owning channel changes due to a masquerade. Before this
was introduced, if a masquerade happened on a channel being spyed on, the
channel pointer in the datastore became invalid.

on the issue with mmichelson)
- Update copyright info on app_chanspy.
- Fix a race condition that caused app_chanspy to crash. The issue was that
the chanspy datastore magic that was used to ensure that spyee channels did
not disappear out from under the code did not completely solve the problem.
It was actually possible for chanspy to acquire a channel reference out of
its datastore to a channel that was in the middle of being destroyed. That
was because datastore destruction in ast_channel_free() was done near the
end. So, this left the code in app_chanspy accessing a channel that was
partially, or completely invalid because it was in the process of being free'd
by another thread. The following sort of shows the code path where the race
occurred:

- the output of flex includes a static function called 'input' that is not used, so for the moment we'll stop having the compiler tell us about unused variables in the flex source files (a better fix would be to improve our flex post-processing to remove the unused function)
- main/stdtime/localtime.c makes assumptions about signed integer overflow, and gcc-4.3's improved optimizer tries to take advantage of handling potential overflow conditions at compile time; for now, suppress these optimizations until we can fiure out if the code needs improvement
- main/udptl.c has some references to uninitialized variables; in one case there was no bug, but in the other it was certainly possibly for unexpected behavior to occur
- main/editline/readline.c had an unused variable

PBX is started on the channel using ast_pbx_start(), then the ownership of the
channel has been passed on to another thread. We can no longer access it in this
code. If the channel gets hung up very quickly, it is possible that we could
access a channel that has been free'd.

on the channel (such as if you set a call limit based on the system's load
average), then there were cases where a channel that has already been free'd
using ast_hangup() got accessed. This caused weird memory corruption and
crashes to occur.

ast_pbx_outgoing_app is called. The reason is that __ast_request_and_dial
allocates the cdr for the channel, so it should be expected that the channel
will have a cdr on it.

These changes fix up some dubious code that I came across while auditing what
happens in the autoservice thread when there are no channels currently in
autoservice.
1) Change it so that autoservice thread doesn't keep looping around calling
ast_waitfor_n() on 0 channels twice a second. Instead, use a thread condition
so that the thread properly goes to sleep and does not wake up until a
channel is put into autoservice.
This actually fixes an interesting bug, as well. If the autoservice thread
is already running (almost always is the case), then when the thread goes
from having 0 channels to have 1 channel to autoservice, that channel would
have to wait for up to 1/2 of a second to have the first frame read from it.
2) Fix up the code in ast_waitfor_nandfds() for when it gets called with no
channels and no fds to poll() on, such as was the case with the previous code
for the autoservice thread. In this case, the code would call alloca(0), and
pass the result as the first argument to poll(). In this case, the 2nd
argument to poll() specified that there were no fds, so this invalid pointer
shouldn't actually get dereferenced, but, this code makes it explicit and
ensures the pointers are NULL unless we have valid data to put there.

the list of channels in autoservice. The problem was that it was possible for
a channel to get removed from autoservice and destroyed, while the autoservice
thread was still messing with the channel. This led to memory corruption, and
caused crashes. This explains multiple backtraces I have seen that have
references to autoservice, but do to the nature of the issue (memory corruption),
could cause crashes in a number of areas.

is that if the lock history array was full, then the functions to mark a lock as
acquired or not would adjust the stats for whatever lock is at the end of the array,
which may not be itself. So, do a sanity check to make sure that we're updating
lock info for the proper lock.
