To prevent one subsystem's taskprocessors from causing others to stall, new capabilities have been added to taskprocessors. * Any taskprocessor name that has a '/' will have the part before the '/' saved as its "subsystem". Examples: "sorcery/acl-0000006a" and "sorcery/aor-00000019" will be grouped to subsystem "sorcery". "pjsip/distributor-00000025" and "pjsip/distributor-00000026" will bn grouped to subsystem "pjsip". Taskprocessors with no '/' have an empty subsystem. * When a taskprocessor enters high-water alert status and it has a non-empty subsystem, the subsystem alert count will be incremented. * When a taskprocessor leaves high-water alert status and it has a non-empty subsystem, the subsystem alert count will be decremented. * A new api ast_taskprocessor_get_subsystem_alert() has been added that returns the number of taskprocessors in alert for the subsystem. * A new CLI command "core show taskprocessor alerted subsystems" has been added. * A new unit test was addded. REMINDER: The taskprocessor code itself doesn't take any action based on high-water alerts or overloading. It's up to taskprocessor users to check and take action themselves. Currently only the pjsip distributor does this. * A new pjsip/global option "taskprocessor_overload_trigger" has been added that allows the user to select the trigger mechanism the distributor uses to pause accepting new requests. "none": Don't pause on any overload condition. "global": Pause on ANY taskprocessor overload (the default and current behavior) "pjsip_only": Pause only on pjsip taskprocessor overloads. * The core pjsip pool was renamed from "SIP" to "pjsip" so it can be properly grouped into the "pjsip" subsystem. * stasis taskprocessor names were changed to "stasis" as the subsystem. * Sorcery core taskprocessor names were changed to "sorcery" to match the object taskprocessors.

app_festival is an application that allows one to send text-to-speech commands to a background festival server, and to obtain the resulting waveform which gets sent down to the respective channel. app_festival also employs a waveform cache, so invariant text-to-speech strings ("Please press 1 for instructions") do not need to be dynamically generated all the time. You need : 1) festival, patched to produce 8khz waveforms on output. Patch for Festival 1.4.2 RELEASE are included. The patch adds a new command to festival (asterisk_tts). It is possible to run Festival without patches in the source-code. Just add this to your /etc/festival.scm or /usr/share/festival/festival/scm: (define (tts_textasterisk string mode) "(tts_textasterisk STRING MODE) Apply tts to STRING. This function is specifically designed for use in server mode so a single function call may synthesize the string. This function name may be added to the server safe functions." (let ((wholeutt (utt.synth (eval (list 'Utterance 'Text string))))) (utt.wave.resample wholeutt 8000) (utt.wave.rescale wholeutt 5) (utt.send.wave.client wholeutt))) [See the comment with subject "Using Debian festival >= 1.4.3-15 (no recompiling needed!)" on http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+festival+installation for the original mentioning of it] 2) You may wish to obtain and install the asterisk-perl module by James Golovich <james@gnuinter.net>, from either CPAN, or his site: http://asterisk.gnuinter.net, as this contains a good example of how variable text can be tts'd via asterisk, namely the examples/tts-*.agi files there. It has been noted that the current expression evaluation capabilities of asterisk are not best suited for the generation and manipulation of text. AGI scripting can be ideal for these sorts of needs. For simpler usage, fixed, pre-recorded messages may be more amenable for your purposes. 3) Before running asterisk, you have to run festival-server with a command like : /usr/local/festival/bin/festival --server > /dev/null 2>&1 &
