18xE1 - managed to get it working

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



So for working with more than 8E1, openscannel in transport.c must look as follows below, and
there is a bug in config.c in load_config_host - too short linkset_name_buf - so for me it reaches the end exactly on 8th span 
(all depends on linkset names and dpc style) but anyway 
100 char is too short for this, so 9th span had incorrect value on dpc, since it was truncated 
so 9th E1 did not work already - that was magic that I did 
not get initially (since logically there should not be difference between 8th and 9th spans)

So for me it looks now 
      char dpc_spec_buf[500] = {0,};
      char linkset_name_buf[500];
      char dpc_buf[50];

and zap-style changes in openscannel

int openschannel(struct link* link)
{
  ZT_BUFFERINFO bi;
//  char devname[100];
  char *devname;
  int fd, res;
  int zapid = link->schannel + link->first_zapid;

//  sprintf(devname, "/dev/zap/%d", zapid);

  devname = "/dev/zap/channel";
  fd = open(devname, O_RDWR);
  if(fd < 0) {
    ast_log(LOG_WARNING, "Unable to open signalling link zaptel device %s: %s\n",
            devname, strerror(errno));
    goto fail;
  }

  if (ioctl(fd, ZT_SPECIFY, &zapid)) {
         ast_log(LOG_WARNING, "Unable to specify channel %d: %s\n", zapid, strerror(errno));
         goto fail;
  }

  bi.txbufpolicy = ZT_POLICY_IMMEDIATE;
  bi.rxbufpolicy = ZT_POLICY_IMMEDIATE;
  bi.numbufs = NUM_ZAP_BUF;
  bi.bufsize = ZAP_BUF_SIZE;
  if (ioctl(fd, ZT_SET_BUFINFO, &bi)) {
    ast_log(LOG_WARNING, "Unable to set buffering policy on signalling link "
            "zaptel device: %s\n", strerror(errno));
    goto fail;
  }

  res = setnonblock_fd(fd);
  if(res < 0) {
    ast_log(LOG_WARNING, "SS7: Could not set signalling link fd non-blocking: "
            "%s.\n", strerror(errno));
    goto fail;
  }
  return fd;
 fail:
  return -1;
}
