Summary:                    [patch] WARNING[23025]: channel.c:952
__ast_queue_frame: Exceptionally long voice queue length queuing to Local
Description: 
Since upgrading to 1.4 SVN 206273 I see LOTS these errors when paging or
when calls are processed by app_queue.  When I see the messages during a
page I don't hear any paging (my Polycom phones continue to ring but no
paging audio).

I have no idea where the message is coming from how to reproduce, or
collect debug information for this specific issue.  I need help to find
root cause.
I think it could be caused by locking in autoservice since I see this lock
every time I see the warning message

    Make filestream frame handling safer by isolating frames before
returning them.
    
    This patch is related to a number of issues on the bug tracker that
show
    crashes related to freeing frames that came from a filestream.  A
number of
    fixes have been made over time while trying to figure out these
problems, but
    there re still people seeing the crash.  (Note that some of these bug
reports
    include information about other problems.  I am specifically
addressing
    the filestream frame crash here.)
    
    I'm still not clear on what the exact problem is.  However, what is
_very_
    clear is that we have seen quite a few problems over time related to
unexpected
    behavior when we try to use embedded frames as an optimization.  In
some cases,
    this optimization doesn't really provide much due to improvements made
in other
    areas.
    
    In this case, the patch modifies filestream handling such that the
embedded frame
    will not be returned.  ast_frisolate() is used to ensure that we end
up with a
    completely mallocd frame.  In reality, though, we will not actually
have to malloc
    every time.  For filestreams, the frame will almost always be
allocated and freed
    in the same thread.  That means that the thread local frame cache will
be used.
    So, going this route doesn't hurt.
    
    With this patch in place, some people have reported success in not
seeing the
    crash anymore.
