Hi,
My name is Stefan and I am a new member of the 1&1 VoIP team.
I have noticed that parsing support is not implemented for the
dns_cache_rec_pref core parameter although this parameter is documented
in doc/cfg_list/docbook/cfg_core.xml. Thus, one can not set the
parameter's value in kamailio config file.
I had noticed the problem due to an an increase in the real_used_size
memory when "kamctl stats shmem" was issued, after DNS SRV queries were
made (when SRV are not added manually using kamctl). The SRV (0 ttl) and
resulting A (3600 ttl) records are added in kamailio's memory even if
the same entries already exist; the existing entries are _not_
overwritten even if they are the same and are kept in memory until the
ttl expires. This is because dns_cache_rec_pref is 0 by default which
means that it won't check for duplicates. This can be also seen using
"kamcmd dns.view" and "kamcmd dns.mem_info".
In my opinion, this core parameter should be supported. We have a little
patch for this.
I want to ask you if there is an explicit reason for not being
implemented yet?
Regards,
Stefan

glad to see you on the list, completing the team from 1&1!

I haven't implemented the dns cache, typically most of the attributes to
configure it are exposed as global parameters. But maybe some of them
can be changed only via RPC. There is a module cfg_db which was supposed
to allow loading values from database as well, but somehow the developer
(which was in the SER project) left and is rather undocumented.
The parameters available in so called cfg reload framework can be set
via kamcmd, like:
kamcmd cfg.set_now_int core cache_rec_pref 1
On the other hand, can you try adding in config file:
core.cache_rec_pref=1
at the beginning, in the part with global parameters?

If you have a patch, send it here or make a pull request on
github. It
will be accepted.

I've tried "kamcmd
cfg.set_now_int core dns_cache_rec_pref 1". The cmd
works and the value is changed accordingly. I also tried with other
params like dns_cache_max_ttl and it works.
On the other hand, can you try adding in config file:
core.cache_rec_pref=1
at the beginning, in the part with global parameters?
I get a config error when
setting the core.(dns_)cache_rec_pref=1 in
config file:
"Apr 20 06:48:03 test-reg1-bs kamailio_3: ERROR: <core> [cfg/cfg.c:162]:
cfg_declare(): ERROR: register_cfg_def(): configuration group has been
already declared: core
Apr 20 06:48:03 test-reg1-bs kamailio_3: ERROR: <core> [cfg/cfg.c:188]:
cfg_declare(): ERROR: register_cfg_def(): Failed to register the config
group: core
Apr 20 06:48:03 test-reg1-bs kamailio_3: : <core> [main.c:2407]: main():
could not declare the core configuration"
If I try "cfg.cache_rec_pref=1" I get no errors but no effect.
If you have a patch, send it here or make a pull
request on github. It
will be accepted.
I have attached to this mail, the proposed patch which allows
dns_cache_rec_pref to be set in config file. (i.e. dns_cache_rec_pref=1)
Kind Regards,

Hello,
how did you generate the patch? 'git am' returns error:
Patch format detection failed.
Can you use git format patch?
http://git-scm.com/docs/git-format-patch
Or even better, if you have an account on github, create a pull request.
Merging will be easier.
Cheers,
Daniel

Hello,
I just apply your patch manually and pushed to master branch -- I had to
add another global parameter and wanted to avoid commit conflicts.
The suggestions for the patch formatting can be used in the future.
Cheers,
Daniel
