Summary:ASTERISK-25642: res_rtp_asterisk: SRTCP broken with DTLS - bad video is one of the consequences

Issues:
Environment:fedora20.x86_64 , libsrtp 1.4.4 , chan_sip webrtc peers Attachments:
Description:symtoms: When dialing webrtc peers, asterisk gets lots  warning logs SRTP unprotect failed with: authentication failure 110 upon receiving rtcp and the webrtc client also gets unprotect failures - in particular when trying to unprotect RTCP FIR which asterisk send on vp8-capable channels. This means bad video.

When dialing sipml chan_sip chrome webrtc peers, we do not mux rtcp and rtp, so there is a seperate dtls handshake for rtcp and rtp for both audio and video. In res_rtp_asterisk.c we extract keying materials from the rtp-dtls-session (to be used for srtp) when the handshake is complete, but we do nothing with the results of the rtcp->dtls handshake. The extracted key from rtp->dtls is passed to libsrtp in res_srtp.c via the srtp_policy_t struct but from the struct reference for that in http://srtp.sourceforge.net/libsrtp.pdf it looks like it is not possible to supply different keys for rtp and rtcp?

So, can anyone think of a solution or work-around?

I have made a patch to fix this: https://gerrit.asterisk.org/2468

It changes rtp_engine API and ABI a bit, I am not sure how much it matters.
