| Description: | Having (optional) support for socket activation in Asterisk would bring several benefits:
# Security: systemd can listen on privileged ports or socket paths and start Asterisk with privileges already dropped. # Major upgrades or reconfigurations of Asterisk requiring a full restart are possible without having the listening socket(s) ever go away. # Any service dependent on Asterisk doesn't have to wait for it to finish starting (or start at all). # We can be absolutely sure that we always bind to existing IP addresses on all desired network interfaces - no race conditions with network bring-up, systemd takes care of that for us. Here is some useful documentation: http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/socket-activation.html http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/socket-activation2.html | ||

A good first step is for you to review the [Asterisk Issue Guidelines|https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+Issue+Guidelines] if you haven't already. The guidelines detail what is expected from an Asterisk issue report. Then, if you are submitting a patch, please review the [Patch Contribution Process|https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Patch+Contribution+Process]. By: Joshua C. Colp (jcolp) 2015-11-11 05:50:02.051-0600 I'm confused, do you plan on implementing and contributing this? We don't allow feature requests on the issue tracker. By: Max (god) 2015-11-11 05:53:38.705-0600 Not in immediate future unfortunately. Where does feature requests go? Did I misinterpreted "improvement" field in jira bug creation form? By: Joshua C. Colp (jcolp) 2015-11-11 05:58:53.533-0600 Improvement is for an improvement with a patch. As for guidelines for new features they are on the wiki[1]. Generally we have no official place to keep a list itself, but discussion occurs elsewhere.
