• integrated with the clusterer module for pipes sharing. The sharing is not done anymore via a NoSQL database, but directly between OpenSIPS instances (via BIN protocol encapsulated in Clusterer module). New parameters were added to control the clustering : replicate_pipes_to(the cluster ID where to to share the pipes), accept_pipes_from(the cluster ID of the incoming sharing traffic), accept_pipes_timeout(the time between two successive incoming packets), repl_pipes_auth_check (ip authentication check for incoming packets) and repl_timer_interval (how often the pipe information should be shared within the cluster)

RATELIMT module

• integrated with the clusterer module for pipes sharing. The sharing is not done anymore via a NoSQL database, but directly between OpenSIPS instances (via BIN protocol encapsulated in Clusterer module). New parameters were added to control the clustering : accept_pipes_timeout(the time between two successive incoming packets) and repl_pipes_auth_check (ip authentication check for incoming packets)

• support for locking debugging - compile with DBG_LOCK (from menuconfig for example) and each lock will stored information regarding the place from where the lock was acquired (file, function, line) - this is useful when debugging deadlocks.

UAC module

• CSEQ is properly increased during the authentication process.

• integrated with the clusterer module for contacts replication. The parameter replicate_contacts_to points now to a cluster ID, instead to a list of destinations.

• hep packet manipulation - version 3 only - since the new, chunk based, design of the hep protocol, packet manipulation is now available from the script; hep_get(), hep_set() and hep_del() functions give you the possibility to add new chunks, modify old ones, read their value and also remove them; still you have to know the data type of the header when reading it, since that is not possible only with the means provided by the protocol;

• do_accounting - function through which one can enable all accounting types at once(database, aaa, syslog, event interface, diameter) in multiple ways: if no parameters used normal accounting shall be made else one can enable cdr, missed calls and failed transaction accounting; the function also allows setting the accounting table for database accounting type;
• drop_accounting - disable accounting types and flags set with do_accounting(); if no parameter provided all accounting shall be stopped; if only the type is provided all acounting for that type shall be stopped; if all flags are dropped(cdr, missed, failed) with the second parameter, normal accounting will still be enabled;
• read more in the official announcement and the documentation

• trace_id - tracing destinations can be defined using this parameter(database, sip duplication, hep duplication) via a generic uri; it also allows nesting multiple types of tracing under the same trace_id;
• capture_on improvement - the flag can now enable/disable trace_ids via mi; if no parameter used it shall affect all the trace_ids; by default it is enabled for all the ids
• sip_trace has a new design - the function can now trace on multiple levels - message tracing, transaction tracing(tm module) and dialog tracing(dialog module); transaction aware tracing can also be made in stateless mode(internally generated replies are traced);
• read the docs and the official announcement for more information;

• integration with proto_hep - sipcapture now uses proto_hep for communication; the receiving interface for hep messages has to be set up using the module;
• hep_route - hep packets manipulation became much simpler; now one can define a special route through which all messages coming through hep defined interfaces should go; if none is used, sip_capture shall automatically be called for all the packets; setting sip, which is also the default behavior, will pass the packets through the main request route;
• hep proxy - OpenSIPS can now act as a full hep proxy; one can set the destination uri and call hep_relay() function; the routing is being made the same way tm module does it, leaving you with the option to use the whole routing logic already available;
• hep packet manipulation - version 3 only - since the new, chunk based, design of the hep protocol, packet manipulation is now available from the script; hep_get(), hep_set() and hep_del() functions give you the posibility to add new chunks, modify old ones, read their value and also remove them; still you have to know the data type of the header when reading it, since that is not

possible only with the means provided by the protocol;

• read the docs and the official announcement for more information;

• new memgroup global parameter for configurable statistics about shared memory usage ; groups of modules can be defined in the .cfg file that would lead to statistics being generated with the number of fragments, used memory and real-used memory by those modules. The global fragments statistics now show the number of fragments allocated and in use.

• added millisecond precision for the duration of generated CDRs - a new field ms_duration is populated by the module when CDR-based accounting is done

• added Re-INVITE in-dialog pinging support; controlled via the new "R" and "r" flags available to create_dialog() as well as the new reinvite_ping_interval module parameter. It properly handle late negociation between endpoints, it ensure SDP persistency ( DB and BIN replication ), it ensure compatibility with topology hiding, it has support for whitelist or blacklist logic ( terminate call for 481 and 408 timeout, or terminate call for anything else other than 200 and 491 ).

DB_SQLITE module (new)

New DB module to provides SQLite backend support for OpenSIPS.

PROTO_HEP module (new)

Provides support for all hep protocols - HEPv1/2 and HEPv3. It concentrate all the HEP protocol related operations (async send and receive via TCP). The siptrace and sipcapture modules do require this module in order to perform the HEP read/write operations.

• new $cfg_file, $cfg_line script variables to return the name of the config file and the line inside the file.

• the memory dump for Q_MALLOC gives you the list of used memory chunks (and the list of free memory chunks as previously)
• memory dump via SIGUSR1 is now possible when also using the HP_MALLOC or F_MALLOC memory managers (listing the used memory chunks)

• memory dump via SIGUSR1 is now possible when also using the HP_MALLOC or F_MALLOC memory managers

• added Re-INVITE in-dialog pinging support

  * three allocators: F_MALLOC, QM_MALLOC, HP_MALLOC. Any of them can be run in troubleshooting mode with -DDBG_MALLOC

• overall allocator rework
  • three allocators: F_MALLOC, QM_MALLOC, HP_MALLOC. Any of them can be run in troubleshooting mode with -DDBG_MALLOC. (although we recommend only doing this with QM_MALLOC)
  • reworked QM_MALLOC memory fragment dump output - it is now much more human-friendly
  • fixed and made F_MALLOC work in debug mode again, since it remains one the best troubleshooting options in high-traffic environments
  • improved menuconfig allocator selection (less error-prone)

The amount OpenSIPS of script coding it requires is minimal, with only a few module parameters, a scripting variable used to access the data and the optional possibility of triggering SQL->NoSQL transfers externally, through the MI interface.\\

The amount OpenSIPS script code required in order to use it is minimal, with only a few module parameters, a scripting variable used to access the data and the optional possibility of triggering SQL->NoSQL transfers externally, through the MI interface.\\

OpenSIPS 2.2 switched to TCP transport for BIN interface. (the UDP transport for BIN showed significant package loss under high traffic even in a private network, being unable to meet the requirements for a high-traffic data exchange between multiple OpenSIPS).
Even more, the TCP transport in BIN engine takes advantage of the Asynchronous Reactor, avoiding any potential blocking on reading/writing to the BIN connections.
The old UDP transport support from OpenSIPS core was dropped.
See module documentation

SQL_CACHER module (new)

This new module allows you to cache an arbitrary number of tables from your preferred SQL database into the OpenSIPS-supported cache database of your choice. The amount OpenSIPS script code required in order to use it is minimal, with only a few module parameters, a scripting variable used to access the data and the optional possibility of triggering SQL->NoSQL transfers externally, through the MI interface.

OpenSIPS script

• debug global parameter renamed to log_level global parameter (same behavior and values)
• new $log_level script variable to replace the setdebug() script function (same functionality and input)
• new debug_mode parameter to replace the outdated fork parameter
• global parameters user/uid and group/gid were removed (use the command line options for these settings)

REST_CLIENT module

PROTO_TCP module

• parameter tcp_async is now by default on !

PIKE module

• new pike_rm MI command to unblock a detected IP address.

• when dns_try_ipv6 is set, try to resolve first as IPv6 (AAA record) instead of IPv4 (A record)

CFGUTILS module

• new asynchronous sleep() and usleep() functions. OpenSIPS will not block anymore while performing a sleep operation.

• add support for folded strings in the config file (multi line strings). Now you can have a multi-chunk (even multi line folded) string as parameter to a script function.

• new no_concurrent_reload module parameter (boolean, default off) to prevent multiple data reloads in the same time (from multiple processes). If you have a large routing set (millions of rules/prefixes), you should consider disabling concurrent reload as they will exhaust the shared memory (by reloading into memory, in the same time, multiple instances of routing data).

• default DB engine for MySQL was moved from MyISAM to InnoDB.

• all flags used for accounting have been removed and replaced with do_accounting() and drop_accounting() functions - read more in the official announcement

EVENT_RABBITMQ module

• new sync_mode module parameter to switch to asynchronous sending of the rabbitmq messages - when an event is raised in synchronous mode (sync_mode is set ON) the triggering process waits for the status of the operation from the actual worker process.

DB_TEXT module

• new dbt_reload MI function to force the reload of the cached tables from disk. Depending on parameters it could be a whole cache or a specified database or a single table. If any table cannot be reloaded from disk - the old version preserved and error reported.

• lb_start() / load_balance() has new flag s to pick a random destinations within equal loads, if multiple destinations selected. This could help to offload an excessive load from first destination and distribute load in situations when calls duration is near to zero (like failed calls) and counts in resources are almost always zero and does not reflect an actual calls flow.

PROTO_HEP module

• provides support for all hep protocols - HEPv1/2 and HEPv3

SIPCAPTURE module

• improved hep support - uses proto_hep module to provide support for all hep protocols
• hep_route - parameter which defines a special route through which hep related messages should go
• hep_proxy - posibilty to route hep packets the same way sip messages are routed
• hep chunk manipulation - posibility to add, remove and modify hep chunks for hep version 3

• new format_version module parameter to control if the XMLRPC output should be or not XML wise formating - the MI content is split (nodes and attributes) and encapsulated in XML tags. Instead of the long and monolithic string response, now the module provides a proper exploded XML tree; that means the result no longer requires the client to do any custom parsing (beside simple XML parsing, of course). Default value is 1 (do XML wise formating) and not 0 (no formating, be backward compatible).
• params xml node is not anymore mandatory in the XML request (if no parameters are actually provided to the command). This ensures backward compatibility with the outdated mi_xmlrpc module

• mi_xmlrpc_ng_root module parameter renamed as http_root
• mi_xmlrpc_ng_format_version module parameter renamed as format_version

• all flags used for accounting have been removed and replaced with do_accounting() and drop_accounting() functions

SIPTRACE module

• New module design - all the flags and parameters for different types of tracing have now been replaced with only one parameter called trace_id

OpenSIPS core

• global parameters user/uid and group/gid were removed (use the command line options for these settings).

BIN Interface

• new profile_end_dlgs MI command to terminate all the dialogs for a profile (a value may be also provided).

AVPOPS module

• the avp_db_query function returns string "<null>" into multi-fields query for a fields with NULL DB value - this helps keeping the data consistency in multi-row queries, like index n in AVPs will hold the values in row n.

• new parameter full to the ds_list MI command. This new optional parameter additionally print the weight, priority and description for the listed destinations.

• allow retransmissions and wait for reply/timeout on canceled branches - do not do anything about branches with no received reply; better continue the retransmission hoping to get something back; if still not, we will generate the 408 Timeout based on FR timer; this helps with better coping with missed/lated provisional replies in the context of canceling the transaction (see more in the commit log).

CPL-C module

• module is renamed to cpl_c without any additional changes.

Migration from 2.1.x to 2.2.0

ALIAS_DB module

• allow alias_db_find in STARTUP route
• the functions alias_db_find and alias_db_lookup accept now in the table parameter any combination of variables and strings.

• new debug_mode parameter to replace the outdated fork parameter.

Debugging (core)

• new Documentation/Script-CoreParameters-2-2#debug_mode parameter to replace the outdated Documentation/Script-CoreParameters-2-2#fork parameter.

Logging (core)

• new log_level global parameter to replace debug global parameter (same behavior and values)
• new log_level MI command to replace debug MI command (save functionality, input and output)
• new $log_level script variable to replace the setdebug() script function (save functionality and input)

DISPATCHER module

• new ds_probing_list module parameter allows OpenSIPS to ping/probe only some certain groups of destinations. This optional parameter contains the list of groups (by ID) to be probe; if missing, all groups are probed (it is backward compatible)

TM module

• the behavior for the auto 100 Giving a try reply changed. Instead of sending this reply when performing the SIP relay (usually at the end of the processing), now is done when entering in stateful mode (the SIP transaction is created), usually when t_newtran is called directly from script or indirectly via other functions (like load_balancing, b2b, osp, etc). Now, the 100 reply may be sent quite early in the script, reducing the changes of retransmissions. Also an consistent behavior is achieved now - same 100 reply is automatically sent when doing t_relay() and t_newtran()+t_relay() in script.

DROUTING module

• wildcard support for partitions - when using partitions, the lookup-kind functions (do_routing(), is_from_gw(), goes_to_gw()) accept now a wildcard for the name of the partition - this means the search will be done in all the existing partitions, instead of a single one. This allows you to search prefixes or gateways in all partitions, when you do not have any information to help identifying the right partition to look into.

• lb_is_destination accepts as port parameter a static value, rather than variables only - lb_is_destination("$si","0") is also a valid call now.

• params xml node is not anymore mandatory in the XML request (if no parameters are actually provided to the command). This ensures backward compatibility with the outdated mi_xmlrpc module

BIN Interface (core)

• added millisecond precision for the duration of generated CDRs - a new field ms_duration is populated by the module when CDR-based accounting is done

B2B_ENTITIES module

• fixed the handling for nested requests by properly implementing "491 Pending" support.

NATHELPER module

• stateful pinging for nathelper - each SIP OPTIONS ping reply can now be matched using the branch from the VIA header. Using the new contact_id feature, this allows us to remove the contacts that don't respond to a certain amount of pings, releasing memory and also improving contact search performances, location table size and also memory consumption. You can read the documentation here. Read paragraph two of the Overview section to understand how to use this feature.

TOPOLOGY HIDING module

• the contacts in the final 3xx replies (for initial INVITEs) are not hided any more - this allow SIP redirects (3xx based) to work through the TH module.

ACC module

• added millisecond precision for the duration of generated CDRs

DIALOG module

• added Re-INVITE in-dialog pinging support - TBD

EVENT_VIRTUAL module (new)

The event_virtual module provides a solution for detecting the failure of events delivery and for doing the failover. Even more, beside failure handling, the module addresses the issue of load balancing (or dispatching) for events across multiple backends.
Shortly, the new event_virtual module provides the possibility to create virtual backends for the OpenSIPS Event Interface. A virtual backend can aggregate multiple real backends (transport protocols that are implemented by different OpenSIPS modules) such as: event_xmlrpc, event_rabbitmq etc. The main advantage brought by this module is that when an event is triggered, the virtual module pushes the event to the read backends with different policies (parallel, failover, round-robin) which can be specified in the virtual subscription socket.
See module documentation

URI module

• del_uri_param function - enables you to remove a parameter from SIP URI taking the key name as argument. All parameters from URI are parsed and, if found, the parameter with the given key is removed. If the parameter is not being found or the URI contains no parameters you shall be notified. Docs here

NATHELPER module

• stateful pinging for nathelper - each SIP OPTIONS ping reply can now be matched using the branch from the VIA header. Using the new contact_id feature, this allows us to remove the contacts that don't respond to a certain amount of pings, releasing memory and also improving contact search performances, location table size and also memory consumption. You can read the documentation here. Read paragraph two of the Overview section to understand how to use this feature.

BIN Interface

For detecting incompatibilities at BIN level, a version field was added to the header of the protocol to stop errors from occurring when two OpenSIPS instances with different version of the protocol exchange BIN messages. So please note that BIN in 2.2 is not backward compatible !

OpenSIPS 2.2 switched to TCP transport for BIN interface. (the UDP transport for BIN showed significant package loss under high traffic even in a private network, being unable to meet the requirements for a high-traffic data exchange between multiple OpenSIPS).

LDAP module

• async ldap_search() - since ldap library has built-in support for async operations, ldap_search can be called at time t, and function result can be checked at t + x time. Also, in the resume route you can also call ldap_result() to retrieve the results from the ldap server. Full documentation here

LOAD BALANCER module

• new flag for lb_start() function to pick a random destinations with equal load, if multiple destinations selected. This could help to offload an excessive load from first destination and distribute load in situations when calls duration is near to zero (like failed calls) and counts in resources are almost always zero and does not reflect an actual calls flow.

MI_XMLRPC_NG

• XML wise formating - the MI content is split (nodes and attributes) and encapsulated in XML tags.

REGISTRAR module

• lookup() force lookup on all branches flag - a new flag for lookup() function has been added which allows you to force lookup() function to expand not only the RURI to contacts, but also all the AORs that can be found inside branches. The flag is called r from bRanch lookup and you can readFull documentation here

RADIUS module

• Async authentication and accounting functions for radius_send_auth() and radius_send_acct() functions can now be used asynchronously. In order to do this, one must patch the radius library, because, for the moment, they do not offer async support. You have a full tutorial about how to do this here.

USRLOC module

• introduce the Contact ID concept - each contact created using usrloc module now has a unique identifier called contact_id which dramatically improves the performance mostly when using databases. The contact_id also stands as UNIQUE PRIMARY KEY for the location table which holds all the contacts. The performance improvement comes from the fact that now, when a contact is searched/deleted/updated, a numerical index shall be used instead of a string. Moreover, finding a contact in memory shall take less time since the identifier holds inside indexes that makes moving through data structures a less time consuming operation.
• combine multiple deletes in a single query when timer is called; since we now have the contact_id to identify a contact, we can easily combine multiple database delete requests into a single query based on this identifier. You also have the max_contact_delete parameter to specify how many delete requests shall be put together inside a single query.

Usrloc contact_id

Each contact created using usrloc module now has a unique identifier called contact_id which dramatically improves the performance mostly when using databases.

Devel Plan 2.2 release (TODO list)

Migration from 2.1.x to 2.2.0

• A new E_PRESENCE_PUBLISH event has been added that is triggered every time OpenSIPS receives a PUBLISH message. Read mode here ...

• Added support for limiting the number of SIP MESSAGES that will be dumped in one shot ( in order to not overload the client )

• Added per contact events - raised when a new contact is inserted / updated / deleted. Read more here ...
• Added User-Agent filtering capabilities for lookup() - so you can now send calls just to particular UAs, if you need to

A new module that offers topology hiding capabilities. The module strips and restores the headers that contain topology information (Via, Record-Route, Route and Contact headers) , and optionally it can also change the Call-ID of the requests. The module can work on top of the dialog module, or in stand-alone mode, thus allowing to do topology hiding for all types of dialogs ( eg. Presence dialogs ) and also for standalone initial requests ( eg. SIP MESSAGE ).
See the usage tutorial and the module documentation for parameters and functions provided by this module.

• Call-ID topology hiding support was added within the dialog module - there are many cases where the callid contains IPs, thus revealing part of the network topology. More information here ...
• Added the ability to propagate various Contact Header / URI parameters when doing topology hiding - helpful for preserving some end-to-end functionality relying on URI params. Read more here ...

• Added the E_DLG_STATE_CHANGED event, that will be triggered when the dialog state changes (eg. from early to established, from established to ended, etc ).

• sync/async support for event_route - Provides the possibility to run an event route asynchronously. More information here

• Added per contact events - raised when a new contact is inserted / updated / deleted. Read more here ...

• Rework of how the Json string is build in order to properly accommodate arrays - in many MI answers, OpenSIPS returns arrays - and these arrays need to be properly translated from internal MI structure to the json format.

• Added support for external body - the MESSAGE has no actual body, but the Content-Type hdr refers to an external body by an HTTP link.

• New end_sub_on_timeout module parameter - If a presence subscription should be automatically terminated (destroyed) when receiving a SIP timeout (408) for a sent NOTIFY requests.

• avp_db_query() may now be used asynchronously (with MySQL backend). A usage example can be found in the module documentation.

• The db_mysql module is now capable of doing asynchronous raw queries. It implements its own pool of connections (per process), so multiple queries can be done in parallel from the same process.

• Rework of how the LB session is controlled (start, resume, stop) from script:
  • new lb_start(), strictly used to start LB session. if sessions already started, old session will be lost and re-started again.
  • new lb_next(), continues an existing LB session (working as load_balance() from failure route - to do failover)
  • lb_start_and_next() - is simply a shorthand for 'lb_is_started()?lb_next():lb_start()' to simplify scripting. This function logically almost the same as old load_balance() function.
  • new lb_reset() to stop a current LB session
  • new lb_is_started() to check if there is any ongoing LB session
• the LB process (when started) takes one more flag to enable usage of destination with negative availability (exceeded capacity); do not ignore resources with negative availability, and thus able to select for load balancing destinations with exceeded capacity. This might be needed in scenarios where we want to limit generic calls volume and always pass important/high-priority calls.
• lb_count_call() - can take negative values, to revert a previous lb_count_call() action

A new module which performs both SIP message compression and SIP header compaction. The compression module gives you the means to reduce the size of the message, by using the following features:

• message body and the header compression
• unnecessary headers removal
• header name reduction to RFC compact form (such as 'v' for 'Via'); we support a limited set of compact headers from RFC 3261 and RFC 4028 (complete list at [2])
• unnecessary attribute lines removal from the sdp body which represent default values

A comprehensive tutorial is available beside the module documentation.

NEW PROTO_TLS module

Module to provide the TLS transport protocol for SIP (server side). You need to load this module if you want to define SIP listeners over WS transport.

Allows new protocols to be added in a much easier way. OpenSIPS 2.2 now comes with two built-in transport modules, TCP and UDP, and three optional protocol-modules: WebSocket, TLS and SCTP. The binary no longer needs to be recompiled every time you choose to support a new protocol.
In order to use one of those protocols (in a SIP listener), you need to load the corresponding module (as any other OpenSIPS module).

OpenSIPS 2.2 had the ability to perform, from script level, various operations in the asynchronous mode. Now you can run DB queries, REST queries or external scripts without the blocking penalty !

The OpenSIPS config file allows you to use certain functions in async way (via the dedicated "async" statement). The suspending and resuming is done at script level. A detailed description of how the async support works in 2.2 is available here: http://www.opensips.org/Documentation/Script-Async-2-2 .

The async scripting support is just the tip of the iceberg (when comes to the work which has been done). To make this possible, radical changes were implemented in OpenSIPS 2.2 (most of them imported from OpenSIPS experimental branch):

• per-process I/O reactors
• timer jobs dispatched across all SIP workers (versus dedicated timer procs)
• updatable transactions in TM (to be able to use the transactions as contexts for the async jump)
• transaction based async support in TM module
• processing context (to make it easier to suspend and resume the script execution)

The first modules providing async functions are:

• avpops for DB mysql queries
• exec for script execution
• rest_client for remote REST queries
