Re: [reSIProcate] Potential bug in TransportSelector


This isn't straightforward since we have to potentially cross thread
boundaries.

 Ok, so what we need to do here is have DUM (or any TU that acts as an
endpoint) register an outbound decorator that inspects the final, filled-out
Contact, and remember what it is, so it can keep track of its dialog-state
properly (and reuse the fully specified Contact for the rest of the dialog).

Best regards,

(fixing the list address)

If the TU explicitly specifies a transport, sure.
But if the TU has asked the stack to deal with this for it, the stack needs
to populate the right things (think multiple interfaces with different
policies wrt transports).

We may be running into a problem where we're saying the wrong thing by
telling the stack to do this by only leaving the hostname blank.

 I feel uneasy about touching the transport param at all; perhaps the UAC
put one into its Contact for a reason!  And if there wasn't one there in the
first place, I think it should be safe to assume the UAC doesn't care what
protocol stuff comes in on, so we shouldn't go adding one. I assume that the
UAC is at least aware of what kinds of transports (TCP, UDP,TLS,...) it is
listening on, and if its transport loadout is somehow incomplete, it should
be prepared to compensate for its lack of compliance by putting explicit
transport params into the Contact. My vote would be to remove the code block
altogether.

In TransportSelector::transmit we are seeing a bug in the following case:

UAC sends a SUBSCRIBE over transport at TCP:5060 and puts the correct
contact in the message
UAC receives 200/SUBSCRIBE with a Record-Route of UDP:5061

With the following code, we correctly send over UDP to target 5061 but we
leave transport=tcp in the Contact which causes a problem for the UAS since
it looks like a Contact refresh and subsequent requests from the peer are
sent to TCP:5061 where there is no listener.



      if (target.transport)
      {
         // There is a contact header and it contains exactly one entry
         if (msg->exists(h_Contacts) &&
msg->header(h_Contacts).size()==1)
         {
            for (NameAddrs::iterator
i=msg->header(h_Contacts).begin(); i !=
msg->header(h_Contacts).end(); i++)
            {
               NameAddr& contact = *i;
               // No host specified, so use the ip address and port of the
               // transport used. Otherwise, leave it as is.
               if (contact.uri().host().empty())
               {
                  contact.uri().host() =
(target.transport->hasSpecificContact() ?

target.transport->interfaceName() :

Tuple::inet_ntop(source) );
                  contact.uri().port() = target.transport->port();

                  if (target.transport->transport() != UDP)
                   {
                      contact.uri().param(p_transport) =
Tuple::toData(target.transport->transport());
                   }


My proposal is to remove the if (target.transport->transport() != UDP). Does
anybody remember why this is here?
