    This didn't need to be moved.

    I am not finding where hooks are restored after a transfer completes.  The transferee channels don't look like they ever get their hooks back.  Also the transferrer may not get his hooks back if he is in the original bridge when the transfer completes.
    
    May need to rethink what happens to the hooks on non-transferrer channels.

    You can use SCOPED_AO2LOCK() here instead since you are not needing the lock variable like you do at the other location.

    Both bridges need to be locked when entering this function.
    
    You have the dest bridge locked and the bridge_channel locked.

    Way too much indentation.  Inconsistent also.



/trunk/main/bridging_basic.c
<https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/2654/#comment18052>

    Move to after the if.  Otherwise, .pvt is stale from the ao2_cleanup() above.

First, when an attended transfer is initiated, it was clear that the bridge that the parties were in would need to behave differently from how it normally did. In order to allow for this to happen, the concept of bridge "personalities" was added. When a bridge is being used in an attended transfer, it has its personality changed to be that of an attended transfer basic bridge instead of a normal basic bridge. With this personality, the following changes are present:
> 
> * The bridge will never dissolve on its own. It must be destroyed by an outside influence.
> * The bridge recognizes when a channel with the "transferer" role enters. This channel is bestowed with DTMF hooks and a hangup hook that other channels do not get.
> * The normal DTMF hooks are not present for channels. This makes compounding transfers impossible.
> 
> In order to make use of an alternate personality for basic bridging, attended transfer functionality was moved from bridges/bridge_builtin_features.c to main/bridging_basic.c. While performing this move, it became clear that it made sense to move blind transfer functionality as well since attended and blind transfers share some common code.

> Attended transfer operation has been completely overhauled from its old form. In its old form, the attended transfer DTMF hook would not return until a conclusive result of the transfer could be determined. With this set of changes, the attended transfer DTMF hook sets up an attended_transfer_properties structure that has all the relevant pieces of information for the attended transfer. After setting up the properties, the feature hook launches a monitoring thread and returns.

I struggled to come up with cogent state names for the state machine, so if you have better suggestions for the names, please let me know.
