Hello,
I haven't seen in the ngrep when the data containing next line is received:
{"event":"REGISTER","tindex":"3639","tlabel":"1889788252"
...
Do you still have it? Is it after:
{"event":"REGISTER","tindex":"12603","tlabel":"626010915",
...
Cheers,
Daniel

Hi,
Took time to get back with the test results as I was trying to analyze too
much myself before getting back on the list. Also I was stuck with weird
error of module version mismatch, but I figured and solved that issue.
So I do see the logs "frame size mismatch" when I miss the events. Since
the logs are too huge, I am sending it in pastebin. Here it is:
In Kamailio Logs, I see:
DEBUG: evapi [evapi_dispatch.c:361]: evapi_recv_client(): frame size
mismatch the ending char
(h):[{"event":"REGISTER","tindex":"12603","tlabel":"626010915
","PhoneNumber":"42000","D146:"event":"REGISTER","tindex":"3639","tlabel":"
1889788252","P] (146)
Whereas the messages in ngrep looks good where the messages are split in
two TCP packets. The first packet ends at D and the second packet is the
proper continuation which send the rest. But it feels Kamailio skipped the
beginning of the message and started parsing at colon again and it thinks
the netstring started with D146 which is incorrect. Hence, it never emitted
any event for the messages in the first chunk.
Hoping this to be helpful !! Thanks.

Hello,
I pushed another commit to add more debug messages to see if the event
route is supposed to be executed or not. Can you run the tests again and
give again the log messages for missing event route executions?

Hi Daniel,
I have captured debug messages after testing with your latest commit on
master. Once again, here's what I'm doing exactly for my test:
1) Use SIPp to send OPTIONS towards Kamailio.
2) On getting options send event as follows:
evapi_async_relay("{\"event\":\"REGISTER\",\"tindex\":\"$T(id_index)\",\"tlabel\":\"$T(id_label)\",\"PhoneNumber\":\"$avp(phone_number)\",\"DeviceId\":\"$avp(device_id)\",\"CallId\":\"$ci\"}");
3) There's a client connected which listens for messages on this socket,
parses the netstring, and sends same data back as netstring to Kamailio.
4) On the event_route[evapi:message-received, I do the following:
xlog("L_INFO", "GOT [$evapi(msg)] from
$evapi(srcaddr):$evapi(srcport)\n");
if($evapi(msg)=~"REGISTER" && $evapi(msg)=~"tindex") {
jansson_get_field("$evapi(msg)", "tlabel",
"$var(tlabel)");
jansson_get_field("$evapi(msg)", "tindex",
"$var(tindex)");
$var(t_index) = $(var(tindex){s.int});
$var(t_label) = $(var(tlabel){s.int});
t_continue('$var(t_index)', '$var(t_label)',
'REGISTER_RESPONSE');
exit;
}
5) On route[REGISTER_RESPONSE], I send 200 OK to SIPp
Now here are detailed logs for which neither SIPp didnt get a response
nor the GOT [$evapi(msg)] from $evapi(srcaddr):$evapi(srcport)\n"); got
logged in the syslog:

I had three such events which got missed out of some 25000 odd messages
sent from SIPp. Other major difference that I see in the debug logs for
problematic events are that there is a positive number in the second
parentheses of evapi_recv_client() function. For the events that were
invoked successfully the value of second parentheses is 0 for
evapi_recv_client() function. Hope the debugging helps.
Debug log for a successful event:

data. You can use debugger module to set a higher debug level for evapi
module in order to see what happens.
I checked the netstring packet size and it is invalid (unless email
stripped some white chars there) -- for example in:
145:{"event":"REGISTER","tindex":"55567","tlabel":"627458699","PhoneNumber":"20711","DeviceId":"abcd1234abcd1234","CallId":
"21225-3848(a)5.6.7.8" <21225-3848(a)5.6.7.8> <21225-3848(a)5.6.7.8>}8>},
the size is 141, not 145 -- it looks like the size includes the size
itself plus the delimiters ':,'. The size is only the effective data, see:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netstring
If evapi gets a packet with an invalid size, then it discards the buffer
content.
See if the app on the other side of evapi connection builds netstrings
with wrong size.

Daniel

Here are the tests that I did:
With the patch applied, I see that Kamailio is invoking event
individually for each netstring even when they come in different chunks.
But I did see instances where when there were complete netstrings in a
single chunk; kamailio did not raise an event for them. Here's the
illustration:
T 1.2.3.4:48873 -> 5.6.7.8:3927 [AP]
146:{"event":"REGISTER","tindex":"16916","tlabel":"1753048277","PhoneNumber":"20708","DeviceId":"abcd1234abcd1234","CallId":"
21220-3848(a)5.6.7.8
"},144:{"event":"REGISTER","tindex":"7954","tlabel":"254315075","PhoneNumber":"20709","DeviceId":"abcd1234abcd1234","CallId":"
21223-3848(a)5.6.7.8
"},145:{"event":"REGISTER","tindex":"64529","tlabel":"599481568","PhoneNumber":"20709","DeviceId":"abcd1234abcd1234","CallId":"
21222-3848@5.6.7.8"},145:{"event":"REGISTER","tindex":"46605","tlabel":"112015324","PhoneNumber":"20710","DeviceId"
T 1.2.3.4:48873 -> 5.6.7.8:3927 [AP]
:"abcd1234abcd1234","CallId":"21224-3848@5.6.7.8"},
*The above two chunks contain 4 proper netstrings where the second chunk
contains part of the 4th netstring. In this case Evapi properly raised 4
individual events.*
1.2.3.4:48873 -> 5.6.7.8:3927 [AP]
145:{"event":"REGISTER","tindex":"55567","tlabel":"627458699","PhoneNumber":"20711","DeviceId":"abcd1234abcd1234","CallId":"
21225-3848(a)5.6.7.8
"},143:{"event":"REGISTER","tindex":"28682","tlabel":"9676691","PhoneNumber":"20712","DeviceId":"abcd1234abcd1234","CallId":"
21226-3848(a)5.6.7.8"}uot;},
*This above chunk contains two complete netstrings but Kamailio never
raised events for these two netstrings.*
For the events that were not raised I see proper Kamailio Logs which is:
evapi_recv_client(): {0} [1.2.3.4:48873] - received
[145:{"event":"REGISTER","tindex":"55567","tlabel":"627458699","PhoneNumber":"20711","DeviceId":"abcd1234abcd1234","CallId":"
21225-3848(a)5.6.7.8
"},143:{"event":"REGISTER","tindex":"28682","tlabel":"9676691","PhoneNumber":"20712","DeviceId":"abcd1234abcd1234","CallId":"
21226-3848(a)5.6.7.8"}uot;},]
But I don't see the logs that I've written in the script after the event
was raised, which means Kamailio did not invoke events for these two
netstrings.
So in my tests, out of 27232 messages sent, there were approximately 27
messages for which the events were not raised by Evapi. The rate of
messages started at 500cps and I stopped after I saw missed events at
around 1200cps.
Thanks, and do let me know for any further tests or information required
about the same.
