Jun 1, 2025June 2025: Key outbound and cancellation enhancements, improved permission checks, and documentation/log hygiene delivered across kamailio/kamailio. Key outcomes include: Outbound REGISTER proxying for wildcard registrations (Contacts:* with Expires:0) enabling proper handling of wildcard devices; Enhanced local CANCEL handling via a new F_CANCEL_LOCAL flag propagated to dialog, rtp_media_server, and TMX paths, ensuring correct locally-originated cancellation behavior; Subnet matching improvements with longest-prefix matching to tighten permission checks; Comprehensive documentation updates across topos, registrar, file_out examples, and LPM-related notes; Cleanup of noisy RTP engine init log to improve log quality. These changes reduce operational risk, improve registration reliability, and provide clearer guidance for operators and developers. Technologies demonstrated: SIP signaling, module integration, LPM algorithms, flag-based inter-module communication, and documentation practices.

Dec 1, 2024December 2024 (2024-12) — Kamailio project focused on strengthening the build system, packaging, and developer tooling, while expanding runtime capabilities. Key outcomes include cross-platform build reliability, improved packaging pipelines, and clearer documentation pathways that enable faster delivery and easier onboarding for contributors and operators. Key features delivered: - CMake/build system modernization across platforms, including cross-compilation support, platform flag handling, custom binary/cfg naming, darwin naming, removal of deprecated macos.cmake, Git-independence for commit data, and build-type settings (Debug). Representative commits illustrate platform flag updates, uninstall script refinements, parser linkage, and build optimizations. - Build/time improvements and packaging targets: - Added a dedicated dbschema target for database schema generation. - Parser files generated in the build directory rather than source tree. - Install paths modernized with CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_* for portability. - New modules target to build and test modules; added support for multiple packaging groups. - Packaging/docs workflow improvements: docs targets always available, docs install optional, and Lynx-based docs generation. - README/install/readme packaging improvements and core readme installation in the install step. - Uplift in build configurability: -ffile-prefix support and related adjustments; option to skip git-based commit info. - UAC enhancements and docs: - Exposed reg/unreg and RPC functions for UAC reg flows, with updated documentation reflecting new uac_reg_send_register/unregister and RPC usage. - Core runtime improvements: - Main module enhancement to print open file limits, with related build and install propagation. Major bugs fixed: - Corrected path resolution and handling in CMake; fixed double $ typo to enable Ninja builds; avoided requiring xsltproc for non-default targets; ensured docs/readme targets aren’t stripped; fixed outbound documentation logic; corrected kamctl library path duplication; standardized module suffix to .so across OS. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Significantly improved build reliability, portability, and scalability across platforms; streamlined packaging and documentation pipelines; reduced friction for contributors and operators; enabled more robust deployments with build-time code generation and packaging targets. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Advanced CMake scripting and build-system modernization, cross-compilation, packaging target design, and doc pipeline integration; parser/code-generation in build directories; UAC API exposure; and runtime observability improvements (open file limits).
