             Summary: Prevent timer_pthread from loading with non-compliant systems
                 Key: ASTERISK-25211
                 URL: https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-25211
             Project: Asterisk
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: None
          Components: Resources/res_timing_pthread
    Affects Versions: 11.19.0
            Reporter: Olle Johansson
            Severity: Minor


Yesterday I spent quite a long time trying to get Asterisk 11 working on a Linux system using a 2.6.18 kernel. I noticed that there was no outbound RTP packets, SIP channels failed miserably to kill themselves and conferences with confbridge did not start.

It turned out that if I unload res_timing_pthread the RTP and SIP stuff started working again. Timer test showed that the pthread timer did not work.

This caused a LOT of issues and makes me wonder if we really should even load res_timing_pthread on systems where we know it doesn't work.
