> I have an Asterisk, with PJSIP. We are saving the RTCP stats to a CDR database, and I've found that RTT values are mostly wrong, showing values over 4.000 seconds. 
> I've been reading how the RTT is calculated on the RTCP RFC, and I think that the code on res_rtp_asterisk.c is miscalculating the LSW of the RTT.

> rtt_lsw = (rtt & 0x0000ffff) << 16; // This will cause overflow
> rtt_tv.tv_usec = ((rtt_lsw << 6) / 3650) - (rtt_lsw >> 12) - (rtt_lsw >> 8); // This will lose precision
> rtp->rtcp->rtt = (double)rtt_tv.tv_sec + (double)(rtt_tv.tv_usec/1000000.);
> {quote}
> This lines above can easily overflow the LSW. Since it is a *fixed point* value, I think it should be calculated like this (probably not the most efficient way):
> {quote}
> rtt_lsw = (rtt & 0x0000ffff);               // No shift!!
> rtt_tv.tv_usec = (rtt_lsw * 999985)/65535;  // Better precision
> rtp->rtcp->rtt = (double)rtt_tv.tv_sec + (double)(rtt_tv.tv_usec/1000000.);
> {quote}
> Using this version of the code, values that were 4000~ seconds are now 60-70ms. This new values matches the RTT values I'm getting from Wireshark.
> Values 65535 and 999985 came from:
> {quote}
> 655535 = 0xffff = 0b1111111111111111
> 999985 = (2⁻¹ + 2⁻² + ... +2⁻¹⁵ + 2⁻¹⁶)*1000000
