I'm not a fan of this change, because I think it's not really fixing the root
problem. bridge_p2p_rtp_write() is called in only one place in
res_rtp_asterisk.c, and it's called like this:
/* If we are directly bridged to another instance send the audio directly
out */
if (ast_rtp_instance_get_bridged(instance) &&
!bridge_p2p_rtp_write(instance, rtpheader, res, hdrlen)) {
return &ast_null_frame;
}
In other words, before entering bridge_p2p_rtp_write(),
ast_rtp_instance_get_bridged() was returning non-NULL. So something is NULLing
out the pointer between its initial check and the call to
bridge_p2p_rtp_write(). This means that adding a second check for the same
thing is likely not to actually catch the problem and instead just make the
crash happen less often.
Looking at the linked issue, the crash is occurring outside of bridging code,
when a channel is read from in app_dial(). My guess is that this channel had
been RTP bridged but was yanked out of the bridge via a masquerade and thrown
into the dial application. The dial application attempted to read from the
channel before the previous local bridge loop had finished with the channel,
thus resulting in crashiness.
The crash on the linked issue seems to verify this. The crashing thread has
channel 0x7f5e943a3cc0 being read from while simultaneously in thread 7380, the
same channel is part of a masquerade that occured as a result of a SIP attended
transfer.
