[SR-Users] loose_route to find transport=tcp

After enabling and deciphering debugging it appears there may be a bug. I
also reviewed https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5658#section-6

I cross-referenced my pcap to ensure I was looking at the reINVITE and see:

[parser/msg_parser.c:106]: get_hdr_field(): found end of header

Jun 16 15:01:29 xxxxxxxxxxxxx /usr/sbin/kamailio[643]: DEBUG: rr
[loose.c:847]: after_loose(): no next URI found

There is definitely another Route header immediately below the one found
above, but find_next_route() doesn't find it
​. I added my own debugging to loose.c and

   if ((_m->last_header->type!=HDR_ROUTE_T) || (_m->last_header==*_hdr)) {
      LM_DBG("No next Route HF found\n");
      LM_DBG("_m->last_header->type: %d\n", _m->last_header->type);
      return 1;
   }

logs find_next_route(): _m->last_header->type: 12 which is
HDR_CONTENTLENGTH_T which is indeed the LAST header in the message. We have
done very little work in the Kamailio source...just some database escaping
in odbc for things to work properly with our database engine...but unless
I'm missing something isn't it very wrong to be looking at the last header
right here? I may attempt to figure out the message and/or hdr_field data
structures and change it. It may also be that the issue doesn't occur when
find_next_route is called with a valid _hdr which does seem to search for
the "next" one vs going straight to the final header in the entire message.

If this is getting overly complicated for this mailing list please let me
know...
