From Reviewboard:
CCSS stands for Call Completion Supplementary Services. An admittedly out-of-date
overview of the architecture can be found in the file doc/CCSS_architecture.pdf
in the CCSS branch. Off the top of my head, the big differences between what is
implemented and what is in the document are as follows:
1. We did not end up modifying the Hangup application at all.
2. The document states that a single call completion monitor may be used across
multiple calls to the same device. This proved to not be such a good idea
when implementing protocol-specific monitors, and so we ended up using one
monitor per-device per-call.
3. There are some configuration options which were conceived after the document
was written. These are documented in the ccss.conf.sample that is on this
review request.
For some basic understanding of terminology used throughout this code, see the
ccss.tex document that is on this review.
This implements CCBS and CCNR in several flavors.
First up is a "generic" implementation, which can work over any channel technology
provided that the channel technology can accurately report device state. Call
completion is requested using the dialplan application CallCompletionRequest and can
be canceled using CallCompletionCancel. Device state subscriptions are used in order
to monitor the state of called parties.
Next, there is a SIP-specific implementation of call completion. This method uses the
methods outlined in draft-ietf-bliss-call-completion-06 to implement call completion
using SIP signaling. There are a few things to note here:
* The agent/monitor terminology used throughout Asterisk sometimes is the reverse of
what is defined in the referenced draft.
* Implementation of the draft required support for SIP PUBLISH. I attempted to write
this in a generic-enough fashion such that if someone were to want to write PUBLISH
support for other event packages, such as dialog-state or presence, most of the effort
would be in writing callbacks specific to the event package.
* A subportion of supporting PUBLISH reception was that we had to implement a PIDF
parser. The PIDF support added is a bit minimal. I first wrote a validation
routine to ensure that the PIDF document is formatted properly. The rest of the
PIDF reading is done in-line in the call-completion-specific PUBLISH-handling
code. In other words, while there is PIDF support here, it is not in any state
where it could easily be applied to other event packages as is.
Finally, there are a variety of ISDN-related call completion protocols supported. These
were written by Richard Mudgett, and as such I can't really say much about their
implementation. There are notes in the CHANGES file that indicate the ISDN protocols
over which call completion is supported.

This commit introduces the security events API. This API is to be used by
Asterisk components to report events that have security implications.
A simple example is when a connection is made but fails authentication. These
events can be used by external tools manipulate firewall rules or something
similar after detecting unusual activity based on security events.
Inside of Asterisk, the events go through the ast_event API. This means that
they have a binary encoding, and it is easy to write code to subscribe to these
events and do something with them.
One module is provided that is a subscriber to these events - res_security_log.
This module turns security events into a parseable text format and sends them
to the "security" logger level. Using logger.conf, these log entries may be
sent to a file, or to syslog.
One service, AMI, has been fully updated for reporting security events.
AMI was chosen as it was a fairly straight forward service to convert.
The next target will be chan_sip. That will be more complicated and will
be done as its own project as the next phase of security events work.
For more information on the security events framework, see the documentation
generated from doc/tex/. "make asterisk.pdf"

Someone asked yesterday, "is there a good reason why we can't just put these
modules in Asterisk?". After a brief discussion, as long as the modules are
clearly set aside in their own directory and not enabled by default, it is
perfectly fine.
For more information about why a module goes in addons, see README-addons.txt.
chan_ooh323 does not currently compile as it is behind some trunk API updates.
However, it will not build by default, so it should be okay for now.

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.

I still need to set up tests to make sure my examples are completely correct,
but I ran out of time tonight and felt that they at least would give an idea as
to how to use calendaring. I will try to test the examples and do some cleanup
on the docs tomorrow night.

based on configuration templates that use Asterisk dialplan function and
variable substitution. It should be possible to create phone profiles and
templates that work for the majority of phones provisioned over http. It
is currently only intended to provision a single user account per phone.
An example profile and set of templates for Polycom phones is provided.
NOTE: Polycom firmware is not included, but should be placed in
AST_DATA_DIR/phoneprov/configs to match up with the included templates.

for extracting application, function, manager, and agi documentation is the wrong
one to take. The most severe problem is that the output depends on which modules
are loaded as well as compile time options, which both determine which parts are
available.

* Add a Makefile in doc/tex/ for generating PDF and HTML
* Add a README.txt file to doc/tex/ to document which tools are used and what
web sites to visit for getting them.
* Update build_tools/prep_tarball to put the proper Asterisk version string
in the automatically generated PDF for release tarballs
