Description:Currently Asterisk treats only application/dtmf-relay payload of SIP info messages. There are some devices software which works only with "application/dtmf" payload and doesn't support "application/dtmf-relay".
This patch implements support for "application/dtmf".
To engage it use dtmfmode=shortinfo in your sip.conf

Tested with NaumenCC (software callcenter) - works good.

As said on IRC, don't duplicate all this code. It makes chan_sip too complicated and hard to manage. You should propably just check the value before transmitting, to decide which of the two application/ headers to use and accept both on incoming.

This is buggy, but neither application/dtmf-relay or application/dtmf is a standard. At least, if they implement a non-standard implementation, they should follow the non-standard reference document on Cisco's web site... :-)

Please try again! /O

PS. Thanks for the comment on the new function though :-)

Ok, looks much better. Thank you for quick turnaround, let's see if I can do the same.

Ouch, doesn't compile cleanly. Did you really test this code?

Add support for application/dtmf SIP INFO dtmf handling. Yep, another
way of handling DTMF in SIP. Totally undocumented, but implemented
in enough devices so we have to support it.

Code by sergee, small changes by oej.

Closes issue ASTERISK-10588

I am reopening this because the patch as uploaded and committed cannot possibly work as intended, and could easily break NAT functionality in chan_sip.

SIP_DTMF_SHORTINFO is defined as (4 << 16), which puts it as bit 18 in the flags word. However, the SIP_DTMF bits are only bits 16 and 17, SIP_NAT uses bits 18 and 19. This means that every single test to see if the value of SIP_DTMF is SIP_DTMF_SHORTINFO will *always* return false, because it never looks at bit 18. This sort of problem is why the comment for SIP_DTMF explicitly says 'four settings, uses two bits'... adding a fifth value as this patch does would make it obvious that two bits are not enough to hold five values.

The only reason this has not broken NAT support for most people is that bit 18 is SIP_NAT_RFC3581, which is the default when people use 'nat=yes'. Anyone trying to use SIP_NAT_ROUTE along with SIP_DTMF_SHORTINFO would see that their system does not work as expected.

I would like to see a SIP call trace of a system using SIP_DTMF_SHORTINFO that supposedly is working properly; I suspect that if anyone tries to generate one, they'll find that they cannot do so.

Fixing this will take some work; SIP_DTMF will need to become three bits, and there aren't any spare bits on either side of SIP_DTMF. Since there some free bits elsewhere in the flags word, I'll have to adjust the other flag bits to make room.
