[sr-dev] [kamailio/kamailio] TM crash when relaying reply, in context of unreachable rtpengine (Issue #3297)

[Alex Balashov]

When relaying this `200 OK` repeatedly with calls to `rtpengine_answer()` failing because all RTPEngines in a set are unreachable...

Repeat INVITEs eventually result in a crash. This backtrace is taken from a different server but identical scenario:

Looks like in the crash frame, `Trans->uac` is `NULL`:

```
(gdb) frame 0
#0  t_should_relay_response (Trans=0x7f4aee56ba80, new_code=200, branch=0, should_store=0x7ffd8b8bbba0, should_relay=0x7ffd8b8bbba4, cancel_data=0x7ffd8b8bbe40,
    reply=0x7f4afe40df70) at t_reply.c:1285
1285				&& !(inv_through && Trans->uac[branch].last_received<300)) {
(gdb) print Trans->uac
$1 = (struct ua_client *) 0x0
```

I have seen this crash from time to time, though it is infrequent. It always seems to occur when there are problems reaching RTPEngine in a timely fashion. 

This is on Kamailio 5.2.4:de9a03, which I know has long fallen off the back of the maintenance train. However, line 1386 of `t_reply.c` in `master:HEAD` shows that the code is no different now:

https://github.com/kamailio/kamailio/blob/master/src/modules/tm/t_reply.c#L1386

Of course, it's possible that something upstream has changed so as to prevent this state. Otherwise, I suppose a null pointer safety check for `Trans->uac` is recommended. I'd be happy to submit a patch, just wasn't sure if the feeling was more that this should be resolved higher up the call stack.
