[SR-Users] $jsonrpl(body) empty or malfunctioned during higher traffic

Hello,

I just finished pushing on master branch a series of commits targeting
to have evapi using an internal buffer for the data parameter instead of
relying on pv-related buffers.

Can people facing the reported issue try with latest master and report
if all goes ok, even without setting pv buffer size to higher value?

On the other hand, because the reports so far where related to the use
of jsonrpc response, I am thinking of adding a dedicated function like:
evapi_relay_jsonrpcs_response(), so it is no need to copy from the
internal buffer of jsonrpcs module to the internal buffer of evapi.

Thinking of a few other enhancements, therefore I am asking for feedback
to see what and how to do:

1) does cgrates require all the attributes from the active dialog rpc
list command? I was considering for quite some time to add a new rpc
command in dialog module to list active dialogs with fewer attributes
(e.g., dialog hash id, label, call id, from tag, to tag, from address,
to address and state). Maybe we can add one tailored for cgrates needs

2) maybe worth considering to add a cgrates tailored module (or just a
function in evapi module like evapi_relay_dialog_list()), so the list of
active dialogs is retrieved directly from dialog module, avoiding to go
through jsonrpcs module, like it seems to be the current mechanism. So a
question here would be if cgrates interaction with kamailio requires
more than just fetching active calls via evapi (e.g., trigger BYE for
active calls in case of prepaid) -- is out there a complete config about
using cgrates with all the features/commands interacting with kamailio?

Cheers,
Daniel
