The Asterisk Development Team is pleased to announce the release of DAHDI-Linux and DAHDI-Tools version 2.3.0. DAHDI-Linux 2.3.0, DAHDI-Tools 2.3.0, and DAHDI-Linux-Complete are available for immediate download at: http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/dahdi-linux http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/dahdi-tools http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/dahdi-linux-complete In addition to several bug fixes, the most significant changes from the 2.2.0 release are: General DAHDI Changes: * Static /dev/dahdi files are not generated at install time since udev is used on all the supported distributions. build_tools/make_static_devs is available for those users who still need the static device files. * UDEV_DIR can be set during build in order to override where the build will place the udev rules. * dahdi_dummy is no longer built by default. DAHDI will automatically use a kernel timer to provide timing if there isn't a physical span which is providing timing. * Added support for 16 kbps software hdlc. * Added support for software configurable BRI TE/NT mode and termination resistance. * Support for additional error counts added to dahdi_spaninfo. New counters include framing errors, coding violations, bit errors, and errored seconds. New Drivers: * dahdi_dynamic_ethmf included to support TDMoE Multi-Frame Devices from Redfone Communications. [http://www.thrallingpenguin.com/articles/tdmoe-mf.htm] Updated Drivers: * wctdm24xxp: Support for Digium Hx8 hybrid digital/analog cards. [http://www.digium.com/en/products/hybrid/] * wcte12xp, wct4xxp: Added support for more fine grained maintenance modes. Among other things, it is possible to now place cards supported by these drivers into local loopback without the use of an external loopback plug. See dahdi_maint in dahdi-tools for more information. * wct4xxp: Added support for Fifth Generation firmware which allows dual and quad span cards to function on systems which are unable to service the interrupt every millisecond in addition to support for revision 3.1 of the framer. * wcb4xxp: Swyx 4xS0 SX2 QuadBri, HFC-4S Eval board, and several additional Junghanns cards added to the device table. * wct4xxp, wcte12xp: Added losalarmdebounce, aisalarmdebounce, and yelalarmdebounce module parameters in order to configure alarm debounce times (specified in ms). * wcte12xp: Added 'max_latency' module parameter. VPM initialization moved into start span and VPM is polled and reset if necessary. This is to accommodate systems that experience interrupt latencies > 128ms. * xpp: 'offhook' also applies to the PRI modules - no PCM passed if no call. Udev rules updated for newer kernels / udev. Changes to dahdi-tools: * dahdi_maint: A new tool which allows the maintenance mode of spans that support the maintenance mode interface to be configured. This includes setting various loopback modes and error injection. * dahdi_tool: "loop" button was removed from the span page. This will soon be handled through the dahdi_maint utility. * fxstest: now supports generating DTMF CID spills for testing. * dahdi-perl: /proc/bus/usb no longer required for dahdi_hardware and such. Can use a dump generated by build_tools/dump_sys_state. Support loading firmware from 1163 (minimal firmware) devices.
