As described in the issue, /tmp is not a suitable location for a large amount of cached media files, since most distributions make /tmp a RAM-based tmpfs mount with limited capacity. I opted for a location that can be configured separately, as opposed to using a subdirectory of spooldir, given the different storage profile (transient files vs files that might stay there indefinitely). This commit just makes the cache directory configurable, but leaves it at /tmp by default, to ensure backwards compatibility. A future commit that only targets master could change the default location to something more sensible such as /var/tmp/asterisk. At that point, the cachedir could be created and cleaned up during uninstall by the Makefile script. ASTERISK-29143 Change-Id: Ic54e95199405abacd9e509cef5f08fa14c510b5d
The vast majority of the Asterisk project documentation has been moved to the
project wiki:
https://wiki.asterisk.org/
Asterisk release tarballs contain an export of the wiki in PDF and plain text
form, which you can find in:
doc/AST.pdf
doc/AST.txt
Asterisk uses the Doxygen documentation software. Run "make progdocs" and open
the resulting documentation index at doc/api/index.html in a webbrowser or copy
the directory to a directory served by a webserver for remote access.
