[asterisk-ss7] dahdi 2.3 and CHAN_SS7

[Jean Cérien]

Hi

This is now somehow resolved !

- the trunk rev 8579 does indeed make go away this reset procedure (at
least, for the first 8 hrs of test, which is anyway much better) - Shaun &
Kev: Many thanks !!!

- However, this is to me more a workaround than a fix. Sorry to be picky,
but what this does is when it gets a non-responsive message from the DSP, it
retries 20 times. If it gets a good response, then, back to normal. My
conception of a fix would be finding out why on the previous versions, the
DSP was never 'not responding', even briefly, and why now, this happens. I
understand this is probably extremely complicated, but the product long-term
stability would benefit a lot

- Shaun / Kev : How can I issue a message in the system log file in
GpakApi.c, so I know when a retry occurs ? I would like to see if call
quality gets affected when the board enters this retry process.


Anyway, dont misread me, I am indeed very happy to see the progress made !
Thanks to all.

J.
