[asterisk-ss7] using dahdi as an E1 sniffer

[Horacio J. Peña]

Answering myself, hope it is useful for somebody:

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "dahdi-user.h"

main()
{
int fds[62];
char fn[1024];
int i;
int BS=160;
char buf[BS];

for (i=0;i<62;++i) {
  int c = i+1;
  if( (fds[i] = open("/dev/dahdi/channel", O_RDWR)) < 0) {
    printf("Error abriendo %s: %s\n", fn, strerror(errno));
    exit(1);
    }
  if (ioctl(fds[i], DAHDI_SPECIFY, &c) == -1) {
    printf("Error ioctl SPE %d: %s\n", i, strerror(errno));
    exit(1);
    }
  if (ioctl(fds[i], DAHDI_SET_BLOCKSIZE, &BS) == -1) {
    printf("Error ioctl BS %d: %s\n", i, strerror(errno));
    exit(1);
    }
  }

while (read (fds[0], buf, BS)) {
  write (fds[31], buf, BS);
  for (i=1;i<62;++i) {
    read (fds[i], buf, BS);
    write (fds[(i+31)%62], buf, BS);
    }
  }
}
