Otherwise if this section of code is being removed then maybe the nonoptreq field should be removed as well.  It&#39;s not read from anyplace else in asterisk, only set by some modules.</pre>

like chan_sip&#39;s dependency on res_http_websocket. Then optional
modules wouldn&#39;t be optional at all, and this patch can become a lot
simpler :-D

As far as removing the field, I&#39;m not sure of the feasibility of
feeding the MODULEINFO information back into the module for its
dependencies. If that doesn&#39;t work out, we&#39;ll need nonoptreq (or
something like it) so we can access the dependency information at
runtime. Until we know whether or not we need it, I&#39;d rather leave it
in there.</pre>

  <td>
   <pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">With the new work in Asterisk 12, there are some uses of the
optional_api that are prone to failure. The details are rather involved,
and captured on [the wiki][1].

This patch addresses the issue by removing almost all of the magic from
the optional API implementation. Instead of relying on weak symbol
resolution, a new optional_api.c module was added to Asterisk core.

For modules providing an optional API, the pointer to the implementation
function is registered with the core. For modules that use an optional
API, a pointer to a stub function, along with a optional_ref function
pointer are registered with the core. The optional_ref function pointers
is set to the implementation function when it&#39;s provided, or the stub
function when it&#39;s now.

Since the implementation no longer relies on magic, it is now supported
on all platforms. In the spirit of choice, an OPTIONAL_API flag was
added, so we can disable the optional_api if needed (maybe it&#39;s buggy on
some bizarre platform I haven&#39;t tested on)

The AST_OPTIONAL_API*() macros themselves remained unchanged, so
existing code could remain unchanged. But to help with debugging the
optional_api, the patch limits the #include of optional API&#39;s to just
the modules using the API. This also reduces resource waste maintaining
optional_ref pointers that aren&#39;t used.

Other changes made as a part of this patch:
 * The stubs for http_websocket that wrap system calls set errno to
   ENOSYS.

 * res_http_websocket now properly increments module use count.

 * In loader.c, the while() wrappers around dlclose() were removed. The
   while(!dlclose()) is actually an anti-pattern, which can lead to
   infinite loops if the module you&#39;re attempting to unload exports a
   symbol that was directly linked to.

 * The special handling of nonoptreq on systems without weak symbol
   support was removed, since we no longer rely on weak symbols for
   optional_api.
