The extension state implementation is stateful resulting in state
not being updated if a device state provider does not publish an
update after loading. To handle providers which don't do this we
query for updated state if we are asked for it and the existing
state is invalid. This ensures that if the device state provider
is loaded later we will get the updated state when asked.
The "core show hints" and "core show hint" CLI commands have also
been changed so that they will update invalid sources for both
device and presence before displaying the information.
Fixes: #2249
extension_state: Fix crash when a hint loses its presence sources.
Author: AbdurahmanZA
Date: 2026-10-26
If an existing hint with a presence part ("devices,presence") was
updated to a hint without one, extension_state_update_sources()
passed a NULL presence_state_sources to strcmp() and crashed.
This is triggered by "dialplan add extension ,hint,... replace"
from the CLI or the AMI Command action, because pbx_config always
places the presence part in the application data, and by a dialplan
reload that removes the presence part of a hint.
The presence sources are now compared NULL-safely.
Fixes: #2257
