George Joseph 9a9aa9708d Makefile: Add stir_shaken/cache to directories created on install
The default location for the stir_shaken cache is
/var/lib/asterisk/keys/stir_shaken/cache but we were only creating
/var/lib/asterisk/keys/stir_shaken on istall.  We now create
the cache sub-directory.

Resolves: #634

George Joseph fde0e19658 make_buildopts_h, et. al. Allow adding all cflags to buildopts.h
The previous behavior of make_buildopts_h was to not add the
non-ABI-breaking MENUSELECT_CFLAGS like DETECT_DEADLOCKS,
REF_DEBUG, etc. to the buildopts.h file because "it caused
ccache to invalidate files and extended compile times". They're
only defined by passing them on the gcc command line with '-D'
options.   In practice, including them in the include file rarely
causes any impact because the only time ccache cares is if you
actually change an option so the hit occurrs only once after
you change it.

OK so why would we want to include them?  Many IDEs follow the
include files to resolve defines and if the options aren't in an
include file, it can cause the IDE to mark blocks of "ifdeffed"
code as unused when they're really not.

So...

* Added a new menuselect compile option ADD_CFLAGS_TO_BUILDOPTS_H
  which tells make_buildopts_h to include the non-ABI-breaking
  flags in buildopts.h as well as the ABI-breaking ones. The default
  is disabled to preserve current behavior.  As before though,
  only the ABI-breaking flags appear in AST_BUILDOPTS and only
  those are used to calculate AST_BUILDOPT_SUM.
  A new AST_BUILDOPT_ALL define was created to capture all of the
  flags.

* make_version_c was streamlined to use buildopts.h and also to
  create asterisk_build_opts_all[] and ast_get_build_opts_all(void)

* "core show settings" now shows both AST_BUILDOPTS and
  AST_BUILDOPTS_ALL.

UserNote: The "Build Options" entry in the "core show settings"
CLI command has been renamed to "ABI related Build Options" and
a new entry named "All Build Options" has been added that shows
both breaking and non-breaking options.

Sergey V. Lobanov 30022e05cb build: fix bininstall launchd issue on cross-platform build
configure script detects /sbin/launchd, but the result of this
check is not used in Makefile (bininstall). Makefile also detects
/sbin/launchd file to decide if it is required to install
safe_asterisk.

configure script correctly detects cross compile build and sets
PBX_LAUNCHD=0

In case of building asterisk on MacOS host for Linux target using
external toolchain (e.g. OpenWrt toolchain), bininstall does not
install safe_asterisk (due to /sbin/launchd detection in Makefile),
but it is required on target (Linux).

This patch adds HAVE_SBIN_LAUNCHD=@PBX_LAUNCHD@ to makeopts.in to
use the result of /sbin/launchd detection from configure script in
Makefile.
Also this patch uses HAVE_SBIN_LAUNCHD in Makefile (bininstall) to
decide if it is required to install safe_asterisk.

George Joseph 3e97156fd3 Makefile: Disable XML doc validation
make_xml_documentation was being called with the --validate
flag set when it shouldn't have been.  This was causing
build failures if neither xmllint nor xmlstarlet were installed.
The correct behavior is to simply print a message that either
one of those tools should be installed for validation and
continue with the build.

trying to fix get_sourceable_makeopts, it's just been removed.

George Joseph 2e00b5edbd Makefile: Allow XML documentation to exist outside source files
Moved the xmldoc build logic from the top-level Makefile into
its own script "make_xml_documentation" in the build_tools
directory.

Created a new utility script "get_sourceable_makeopts", also in
the build_tools directory, that dumps the top-level "makeopts"
file in a format that can be "sourced" from shell sscripts.
This allows scripts to easily get the values of common make
build variables such as the location of the GREP, SED, AWK, etc.
utilities as well as the AST* and library *_LIB and *_INCLUDE
variables.

Besides moving logic out of the Makefile, some optimizations
were done like removing "third-party" from the list of
subdirectories to be searched for documentation and changing some
assignments from "=" to ":=" so they're only evaluated once.
The speed increase is noticeable.

The makeopts.in file was updated to include the paths to
REALPATH and DIRNAME.  The ./conifgure script was setting them
but makeopts.in wasn't including them.

So...

With this change, you can now place documentation in any"c"
source file AND you can now place it in a separate XML file
altogether.  The following are examples of valid locations:

res/res_pjsip.c
    Using the existing /*** DOCUMENTATION ***/ fragment.

res/res_pjsip/pjsip_configuration.c
    Using the existing /*** DOCUMENTATION ***/ fragment.

res/res_pjsip/pjsip_doc.xml
    A fully-formed XML file.  The "configInfo", "manager",
    "managerEvent", etc. elements that would be in the "c"
    file DOCUMENTATION fragment should be wrapped in proper
    XML.  Example for "somemodule.xml":

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <!DOCTYPE docs SYSTEM "appdocsxml.dtd">
    <docs>
        <configInfo>
        ...
        </configInfo>
    </docs>

It's the "appdocsxml.dtd" that tells make_xml_documentation
that this is a documentation XML file and not some other XML file.
It also allows many XML-capable editors to do formatting and
validation.

Other than the ".xml" suffix, the name of the file is not
significant.

As a start... This change also moves the documentation that was
in res_pjsip.c to 2 new XML files in res/res_pjsip:
pjsip_config.xml and pjsip_manager.xml.  This cut the number of
lines in res_pjsip.c in half. :)

Alexander Traud f3b29c6aa8 progdocs: Update Makefile.
In developer mode, use internal documentation as well.
This should produce no warnings. Fix yours!

In noisy mode, output all possible warnings of Doxygen.
This creates zillion of warnings. Double-check your current module!

Any warnings are in the file './doxygen.log'. Beside that, this change
avoids deprecated parameters because the configuration file for Doxygen
contains only those parameters which differ from the default. This
avoids the need to update the file on each run. Furthermore, it adds
AST_VECTOR to be expanded. Finally, the default name for that file is
Doxyfile. Therefore, let us use that!

lvl b08427134f Introduce astcachedir, to be used for temporary bucket files
As described in the issue, /tmp is not a suitable location for a
large amount of cached media files, since most distributions make
/tmp a RAM-based tmpfs mount with limited capacity.

I opted for a location that can be configured separately, as opposed
to using a subdirectory of spooldir, given the different storage
profile (transient files vs files that might stay there indefinitely).

This commit just makes the cache directory configurable, and changes
the default location from /tmp to /var/cache/asterisk.

Ben Ford 9acf840f7c res_stir_shaken: Implemented signature verification.
There are a lot of moving parts in this patch, but the focus of it is on
the verification of the signature using a public key located at the
public key URL provided in the JSON payload. First, we check the
database to see if we have already downloaded the key. If so, check to
see if it has expired. If it has, redownload from the URL. If we don't
have an entry in the database, just go ahead and download the public
key. The expiration is tested each time we download the file. After
that, read the public key from the file and use it to verify the
signature. All sanity checking is done when the payload is first
received, so the verification is complete once this point is reached.

The XML has also been added since a new config option was added to
general (curl_timeout). The maximum amount of time to wait for a
download can be configured through this option, with a low value by
default.

Walter Doekes a7d94f504f build: Fix deb build issues with fakeroot
If DESTDIR is set, don't call ldconfig. Assume that DESTDIR is used to
create a binary archive. The ldconfig call should be delegated to the
archive postinst script. This fixes the case where fakeroot wraps 'make
install' causing $EUID to be 0 even though it doesn't have permission to
call ldconfig.

The previous logic in configure.ac to detect and correct libdir
has been removed as it was not completely accurate.  CentOS 64-bit
users should again specifiy --libdir=/usr/lib64 when configuring
to prevent install to /usr/lib.

Updated Makefile:check-old-libdir to check for orphans in
lib64 when installing to lib as well as orphans in lib when installing
to lib64.

Updated Makefile and main/Makefile uninstall targets to remove the
orphans using the new logic.

George Joseph b0067bcf2c build: Execute ldconfig to build cache. (take two)
On some platforms a multiarch approach is used for libraries.
The build system does not take this into account and still
places libraries into the lib directory if no --libdir is
specified to configure. On initial startup this results in
libasteriskssl.so not being found, as it is not in the multiarch
lib directory.  To make matters worse, options were being passed
to ldconfig on both Linux and FreeBSD that actually prevented
the rebuild of the cache.

 * Fedora has a /usr/share/config.site that automatically tells
   autoconf to use /usr/lib64 but CentOS does not. This logic was
   copied to configure.ac and modified so systems like Ubuntu,
   which still use /usr/lib for 64-bit systems, aren't affected.

Now that we have them in the correct directory...

In order for the system loader to find libasteriskssl and
libasteriskpj, one of 3 things has to happen...

  - The linker cache must be rebuilt including the directory
    where the libasterisk* libraries were installed.  Only root
    can rebuild the cache.  This was busted.
  - We have to link the asterisk binary with an rpath pointing
    to the directrory where the libasterisk* libraries were
    installed.  This makes things very complicated and will happen
    over the collective dead bodies of everyone who's had to
    package a distribution with an rpath.
  - Finally, you can start asterisk with LD_LIBRARY_PATH set to the
    directrory where the libasterisk* libraries were installed.

There are no other options. So...

 * The invokation of ldconfig has been moved from main/Makefile
   to ASTTOPDIR/Makefile, the options have been removed, and
   DESTDIR/ASTLIBDIR appended.  If you aren't root, you will be
   warned after the "Asterisk Installation Compete" banner that
   you must re-run 'make install' as root, manually run
   'ldconfig DESTDIR/ASTLIBDIR' as root, or run asterisk with
   LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

George Joseph 5fb848eebd bundled_pjproject: Add tests for programs used by the Makefile, et al.
Added tests for bzip2, tar, patch, sed and nm to configure.ac.

Set DOWNLOAD_TO_STDOUT to a working command line regardless of
whether the download program is wget, curl or fetch.

Added a 'configure.m4' file to the third-party directory which takes
care of calling any third-party project setup.  Had to move some
pjproject_bundled stuff up in configure.ac so it was called before
the third-party configure macro.

The pjproject tarball is now downloaded to the externals_cache_dir if
it was specified on the ./configure command line

Removed regeneration of the pjproject aconfigure file.  It was only
needed for an old patch that no longer applies.

Converted the tests for symbols to explicit tests since we know that
they're now available in the bundled version.  Saves a little time
during configure.

George Joseph 6caf6bcdad build: Add download capability for external packages
The DPMA and g729a, silk, siren7 and siren14 codecs hosted at
http://downloads.digium.com/pub/telephony/ are now listed in the
"External" sections of the "Resource Modules" and "Codec Translators"
pages in menuselect.  Any that are selected will automatically be
downloaded and installed when "make install" is run.  Their LICENSE and
README (if avaialble) files will be installed to
ASTVARLIBDIR/documentation/thirdparty/<product_name>.

Example use with codecs:

The codecs/codecs.xml file is a menuselect style xml file that lists
the codecs to be included.  Their support levels are 'external', which
triggers the download and install, and defaultenabled is no.  Also
because codec_g729a is actually in a directory named codec_g729 on the
download server, the newly added 'member_data' element is used to
override the default of the directory name being the package name.  You
can use the 'directory_name' attribute to keep default base URL
(http://downloads.digium.com/pub/telephony/) but use the new directory,
or you use the 'remote_url' attribute to specify a full URL to the
download directory.  In this case, you must still follow the same
subdirectory naming conventions as that used for the packages located
at 'http://downloads.digium.com/pub/telephony'.

A new configure option '--with-externals-cache' was added and like
'--with-sounds-cache' it allows the installer to cache tarballs so
they're not downloaded every time.

To assist with the download and install process, each external package
now has a manifest.xml file that, among other things, contains a package
version and checksums for each file in the tarball.  The manifest is
saved to both the cache directory and ASTMODDIR and together with the
manifest.xml on the downloads site, tells the install scripts whether
a download and/or update is needed.

bash and xmlstarlet are required for downloader operation.  If they're
not installed, the external items in menuselect will be unavailable.

Alexander Traud 6fca2b3bf0 Makefile: Retain XML Declaration and DTD in docs.
Since Asterisk 12, the documentation got an XML Stylesheet. Because of a typo,
the XML Declaration and DTD were overwritten by this.
