These routines assume that any messages is composed of a write and/or
read part. While the API allows sending and receiving as part of one
messages/transfer, it does not permit full duplex operation where data is
both send and received at the same time.
This is primarily useful for SPI devices. These devices sometimes needs
a combination of an SPI and HID device, so discovery is a bit more
complicated.
While meson suggests to always use 'library' this leads to some unwanted
behaviors when it comes to generate pkg-config files for it, as they
will include `Libs.Private` / `Required.private` fields that should not
be really part of a shared library as libfprint is meant to be used.
There are two variants one with storage and identify support and the
other without storage.
It implements the following commands:
* INSERT id
* REMOVE id
* SCAN id
* ERROR error-code
* LIST (returns saved print)
The INSERT/REMOVE/LIST commands are only available in the storage
driver. The SCAN command emulates presenting a finger.
These commands can be send ahead of time, and will be queued and
processed when appropriate. i.e. for INSERT/REMOVE that is immediately
when possible, for SCAN/ERROR processing is delayed.
The LIST command is always processed immediately.
Note that only a single command can be send per socket connection and
the command must be send in a single message. The socket will be closed
after the command has been processed.

Instead of repeating the same code in both the virtual-image and the
virtual-device drivers, implement a class to handle the socket listening
an data reading.

This solves various problems:
1. It stays the same also if some drivers have been disabled
2. It uses a stable path for being imported by systemd
3. It is still checked for its validity by tests
4. It can be auto-generated using a simple command
As we are shipping a hwdb file now, we cannot have a collision with the
old libfprint version. Also, we are going to pull these rules into
systemd and they will not be installed via libfprint in the future. As
such, collisions will not happen again and it makes more sense like this
for systemd.
We want systemd to pull our hwdb. In order to ease this, always build
the hwdb file, even if it is disabled.
Once systemd has merged the rules, downstream should turn off the rules
in libfprint. The default in libfprint will also be changed to not build
the hwdb (udev_rules option) eventually.
We only use the rules/hwdb to enable auto-suspend. So, instead of
shipping our own rules, we can just use the existing autosuspend rules
and ship a hwdb that sets the appropriate flag.
Closes: #336
NBIS just does weird things and while the array-parameter warning is
easy to fix, the other is not trivial. So disable these warnings so that
we can still build using newer GCC versions.
The public API uses gio and gobject header, ensure that these are in the
list of Required pkg-config modules, otherwise they are added to
Required.private which is not OK.
It appears the order of linking is relevant in this case, change it to
fix some linking issues.
It may be that there are better solutions to this problem.
Without this we get warnings like the following:
cc1: warning: .../_build/libfprint/nbis/libfprint-include: No such file or directory [-Wmissing-include-dirs]
To avoid conflicts with previous libfprint version and make sure that the
target version is the correct one (plus to allow parallel install in some
distros), let's use a versioned naming for the library keeping the abi
version in sync.
Fixes#223
The private library needs to indirectly include fp-enum.h. This
dependency was not listed anyway, resulting in a race condition during
the build process.
In order to be able to test the private device code (used by drivers) we
need to have that split a part in a different .c file so that we can compile
it alone and link with it both the shared library and the test executables.
Redefine fp_image_device_get_instance_private for private usage, not to move
the private struct as part of FpDevice.

The nbis headers are full of redundant declarations, we can't fix them all
now, so in the mean time let's use an header using pragma to ignore such
errors.
Add the error to nbis private include folder that should be used only by
headers of libfprint-nbis.
As nbis is an external source bundle, it does not necessarily make sense
to enable/fix all warnings to the extend we do for our own library code.
As such, separate the build process into multiple stages.
We were passing around the common cflags and setting them for each library
or executable, but this is just a repetition given we can just use
add_project_arguments for this.
Meson files are normally using 4-spaces to indent and functions use first
parameter on the same line while others at next indentation level, not
following the parenthesis indentation.
So adapt libfprint to follow the meson standard.
Heavily modified by Benjamin Berg <bberg@redhat.com> to port it to the
new libfprint API and adjust the coding style to follow more closely
other drivers.
This is a rewrite of the core based on GObject and Gio. This commit
breaks the build in a lot of ways, but basic functionality will start
working again with the next commits.
We will use GUsb rather than libusb directly in the future. This should
simplify a lot of the integration work and changes such as supporting
hotplugging. It will also require quite a lot of internal changes.
The driver was never ported to the new asynchronous model, meaning it
has been defunct since some time in 2008. Remove the driver, as
seemingly no one has complained about this and we have no proper way to
even verify a port is correct.
