From 1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Sat, 16 Apr 2005 15:20:36 -0700 Subject: Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.

Features of the i4l diversion services + (Or what can the i4l diversion services do for me) + + The i4l diversion services offers call forwarding and logging normally + only supported by isdn phones. Incoming calls may be diverted + unconditionally (CFU), when not reachable (CFNR) or on busy condition + (CFB). + The diversions may be invoked statically in the providers exchange + as normally done by isdn phones. In this case all incoming calls + with a special (or all) service identifiers are forwarded if the + forwarding reason is met. Activated static services may also be + interrogated (queried). + The i4l diversion services additionally offers a dynamic version of + call forwarding which is not preprogrammed inside the providers exchange + but dynamically activated by i4l. + In this case all incoming calls are checked by rules that may be + compared to the mechanism of ipfwadm or ipchains. If a given rule matches + the checking process is finished and the rule matching will be applied + to the call. + The rules include primary and secondary service identifiers, called + number and subaddress, callers number and subaddress and whether the rule + matches to all filtered calls or only those when all B-channel resources + are exhausted. + Actions that may be invoked by a rule are ignore, proceed, reject, + direct divert or delayed divert of a call. + All incoming calls matching a rule except the ignore rule a reported and + logged as ASCII via the proc filesystem (/proc/net/isdn/divert). If proceed + is selected the call will be held in a proceeding state (without ringing) + for a certain amount of time to let an external program or client decide + how to handle the call. + + +2. Required hard- and software + + For using the i4l diversion services the isdn line must be of a EURO/DSS1 + type. Additionally the i4l services only work together with the HiSax + driver for passive isdn cards. All HiSax supported cards may be used for + the diversion purposes. + The static diversion services require the provider having static services + CFU, CFNR, CFB activated on an MSN-line. The static services may not be + used on a point-to-point connection. Further the static services are only + available in some countries (for example germany). Countries requiring the + keypad protocol for activating static diversions (like the netherlands) are + not supported but may use the tty devices for this purpose. + The dynamic diversion services may be used in all countries if the provider + enables the feature CF (call forwarding). This should work on both MSN- and + point-to-point lines. + To add and delete rules the additional divertctrl program is needed. This + program is part of the isdn4kutils package. + +3. Compiling, installing and loading/unloading the module + Tracing calling and diversion information + + + To compile the i4l code with diversion support you need to say yes to the + DSS1 diversion services when selecting the i4l options in the kernel + config (menuconfig or config). + After having properly activated a make modules and make modules_install all + required modules will be correctly installed in the needed modules dirs. + As the diversion services are currently not included in the scripts of most + standard distributions you will have to add a "insmod dss1_divert" after + having loaded the global isdn module. + The module can be loaded without any command line parameters. + If the module is actually loaded and active may be checked with a + "cat /proc/modules" or "ls /proc/net/isdn/divert". The divert file is + dynamically created by the diversion module and removed when the module is + unloaded. + + +4. Tracing calling and diversion information + + You also may put a "cat /proc/net/isdn/divert" in the background with the + output redirected to a file. Then all actions of the module are logged. + The divert file in the proc system may be opened more than once, so in + conjunction with inetd and a small remote client on other machines inside + your network incoming calls and reactions by the module may be shown on + every listening machine. + If a call is reported as proceeding an external program or client may + specify during a certain amount of time (normally 4 to 10 seconds) what + to do with that call. + To unload the module all open files to the device in the proc system must + be closed. Otherwise the module (and isdn.o) may not be unloaded. + +5. Format of the divert device ASCII output + + To be done later + -- cgit v1.2.3
