Dear all
seems the issue was not on the module or related to kamailio, but related
to the application we were using to read from tcp socket.
I saw that some messages sent with evapi_relay were encapsulated in the
same frame, and i even tried to force the TCP_NODELAY option on the evapi
socket by compiling the kamailio with this

if (bind(evapi_srv_sock, ai_res->ai_addr, ai_res->ai_addrlen) < 0) {
LM_ERR("cannot bind to local address and port [%s:%d]\n",
laddr, lport);
and i saw that with this change we had always a frame for each message
published to evapi, but the issue was still there.
So no matter if this option was activated or not in Kamailio, I had to tune
the application (in erlang) to delimit the messages received by converting
them to line mode. This way we could reach up to 1000 processed messages
per second.
best regards

Dear all
we have been testing this module with the following setup
kamailio 5.3.2
evapi params
modparam("evapi", "workers", 4)
modparam("evapi", "netstring_format", 0)
modparam("evapi", "bind_addr", "127.0.0.1:8448")
modparam("evapi", "max_clients", 32)
then in the configuration we do evapi_relay of avp including a json data
(which can be quite long), like this
{"key" : "aarp2q0tcpqhs0cpucuhukjs2ah2j00q(a)10.18.5.64" ,
"msg" :
{"rg_in":"701","ani_init":{"ani_source":"pai",
....... }}}
We have an application listening on the tcp socket and writing those
messages to a kafka cluster, and this works ok, and in the previous manual
tests we have done no issue was found.
But when making some load tests, and passing some live traffic we see some
issues
seems like some times, when there are messages to be sent to the tcp
socket at the same time, they are sent in the same message, when normally
each data sent using evapi_relay is sent in 1 message
We do sometimes see something like this on the application consuming from
the tcp socket
2020-11-25 15:20:01.744 UTC [error]
<0.706.0>@evapi_kafka_listener:handle_info:167 body "{\"key\" :
\"
6142651aa63616c6c04a783cd(a)72.21.24.130\" , \"msg\" :
{\"rg_in\":\"677\",\"ani_init\":{\"ani_source\":\"fro\",.......}}}{\"key\"
: \"isbc7caT4001915251VabcGhEfHdNiF0i(a)172.16.120.1\" , \"msg\" :
{\"rg_in\":\"22\",\"ani_init\":{\"ani_source\":\"pai\",
.......
,\"translate" not valid json; error = {691,invalid_trailing_data}
2020-11-25 15:20:01.745 UTC [error]
<0.706.0>@evapi_kafka_listener:handle_info:167 body
"dPartition\":\"-1\",......}}}" not valid json; error =
{1,invalid_json}
and we do see that the application cannot parse the json message fine,
because we have like 2 json objects together
......{\"ani_source\":\"fro\",.......}}}{\"key\" :
\"isbc7caT4001915251Vabc............
This happens with 2 different UDP receivers processing messages and
calling evapi_relay at the same time. But i don't think this happens all
the time. Seems like some issue when several processes try to use evapi
workers at the same time.
We tried to increase evapi workers and it's the same
We also saw another issue I think. Seems when the avp sent to evapi socket
is bigger than ~1680 char, the json is also truncated, and also happens
when we use the socket in Lo interface which has an MTU of 65535.
Could you please take a look to see if there is any problem or limitation,
or if we are using something wrong?
thanks and best regards
