Review request for Asterisk Developers.


Changes
-------

Updated based on the review findings. I went ahead and made it so it would drop 
the current message if no response was received and others are waiting in the 
queue.


Bugs: ASTERISK-24635
    https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-24635


Repository: Asterisk


Description
-------

When Asterisk attempts to send SIP outbound publish information and no response 
is ever received (no 200 okay, 412, 423) the system eventually crashes. A 
response is never received because the system Asterisk is attempting to send 
publish information to is not available. The underlying pjsip framework 
attempts to send publish information. After several attempts it calls back into 
the Asterisk outbound publish code. At this point if the "client->queue" is 
empty Asterisk attempts to schedule a refresh which utilizes "rdata" and since 
no response was received the given "rdata" struture is NULL. Attempting to 
dereference a NULL object of course results in a crash.

This patch re-queues the current message that has not received a response yet 
(has no "rdata"), thus removing the possibility of the queue being empty and 
having no "rdata" available. Consequently, in this scenario, the publish 
refresh is not called and the crash is avoided.

Testing
-------

First duplicated the problem by attempting to publish to a non existent system 
(after a bit Asterisk crashed). After applying the patch using the same setup 
Asterisk no longer crashed. Also ran the current set of outbound publish 
testsuite tests to make sure those still passed.


Thanks,

Kevin Harwell
