[sr-dev] sip_msg changes - proposal

[Daniel-Constantin Mierla]

Hello,

some months ago (iirc) we had a discussion about the sip_msg structure 
and the fact that it has too many header hooks, some for pretty uncommon 
or not really used inside sip router code.

I spotted
- subject
- accept_language
- content_disposition
- accept_disposition
- unsupported
- organization
- diversion (expired draft?)

The list can continue a bit ... I was thinking to replace them with a 
call of get_hdr_by_name|type() kind of function. The benefit will be 
lower structure.

On the other hand, I would add a new field to hold the pid of the 
process that received the message. There are some potential races by 
using only id to identify a message, especially in serial forking.

Opinions?

Daniel
