libfprint v1.90.4 introduced a new finger status API to expose to the UI
the finger status on sensor.
Add two new properties to the Device interface that represent the
possible values.
Add new tests.
The device DBus skeleton interface already implements caching for the
properties and can smartly handle their update sending (batched) dbus
events on changes.
Even if the default properties are only read only and we don't care, we
are going to introduce properties that will change values, and so having
the skeleton to handle this for us is quite convenient.
Given that we don't really need to override those properties, we can
just set them at start and leave the skeleton cache to handle the rest.
In case we'd ever need to override them, however the skeleton also
provides a way to override all the properties and to get a reference of
the number of properties it defines, ensuring to keep the order they are
defined.
This would allow us to get back the parent's properties IDs and to use
this to implement ours properties getters/setters using the parent one
as fallback.
This makes garbage collection a bit more predictable overall. Note that
we'll first delete prints that we do not know the age of.
If we cannot sort them by age, then randomize the order so that we don't
end up deleting in the order that the device returned the prints.
The stoppable actions (Verify/Enroll) have the same logic during
completion. Create a common function to share this logic instead of
copying it in each of the handlers.
Fixes: #97
In the garbage collection code we always ended up to load the first
enrolled print, and this may lead to removing from device storage prints
that are actually in use.
We have a condition where a client vanishing instead of cleaning up the
operation using VerifyStop would cause fprintd to hang. This only
happens if the underlying enroll/verify/identify operation has already
finished when the client vanishes.
Fix this by correctly interpreting current_cancellable as a flag for
these operations.
Fixes: #97
This is useful in the functions where we have to unset the device's
current action but we may use early-return to handle multiple conditions
such as in open, close and delete functions.
The latest also currently is a bit buggy as it won't reset the state on
some failures.
We already use FpFinger for storage operations and prints management,
but internally we keep still using the old finger number, that uses
different values for invalid data.
Let's be consistent, and always use FpFinger everywhere.
In order to be race free, clients need to ignore all signals until after
the DBus method to start verification has returned. So the signal must
be emitted later than it currently is.
If someone has started an operation, then we don't really need to
confirm they are permitted to stop it again. Not doing this has the
advantage that we cannot run into a second interactive authorization
step accidentally.
Delete needs to operate on the device, so no other actions are permitted
at the same time. And using the libfprint _sync methods does not
guard against reentrance.
This way we can avoid repeating the same checks multiple times, and
we have a single point where we check the permissions needed for method
invocation.
We may have a case where the sender matches with the
session's sender but have a session invocation already set.
In such case we set an error, but still return TRUE.
In case we're using an old polkit version that does not support
auto-pointers, we need to re-define such functions manually or fprintd
won't compile.
Given that polkit doesn't provide us version informations in headers we
need to get that from pkg-config
Disconnecting the g-authorize-method handler is not really needed, as it
is a signal from the same object. This basically reverts 6eb9f263fd
(device: Disconnect authorization callback and remove clients) but keeps
the code to clear known clients in the dispose handler.
Closes: #91
On finalization, the device should always be cleaned up properly (no
data associated with an action may be left). Show a critical warning if
this is not the case, as it indicates a programming error.
Add a dispose function to disconnect the authorization callback and
remove all clients (i.e. unwatch their bus names) before destroying the
hash table.
If a device is unplugged/destroyed while a client is using it, then we
would still end up watching the name. The vanish notification will then
access the destroyed FprintDevice object.
Fix this by unwatching the bus name when removing the client entry from
the dictionary.
The tests cannot currently parse the logs of fprintd. This means we need
to rely on fprintd aborting when a condition is hit that needs to be
tested.
This makes certain possible races when clients vanish testable.
Add a scheme that allows getting and referencing the current session
data while also adding a reference at the same time. This allows getting
the session and using the constant attributes from outside the main
thread without worrying about it being destroyed.
Implement the getter/setter in a safe way by marking the pointer as
invalid while we get the reference.
We already check the claimed state in advance during authorization. This
makes sense, as we can avoid authorization if the API has been used
incorrectly. However, as the mainloop is running and handling other
request the claimed state might change at any point until the method
handler is actually running.
As such, check the claimed state again in each method. Doing so fixes
the possible race condition.
Given that mk_genenum already parses FprintError, add the nick metadata
to the errors so that it matches the wanted DBus error and automatically
generate the errors list.
In this way we'll have to only touch one definition to get everything
updated
GDBus generated interface skeletons support natively an authorization
method that allows to filter calls before we get into the method
callback and that gets called into the call thread, before we go back
to main thread.
As per this, we can move all the polkit and other authorization checks
into this callback so that method handlers are now just assuming they're
the right to perform the requested operation.
As per the fact we'll share some data between another thread and the
callbacks, we will need to introduce some locking mechanism to ensure
safe data access.
This might be reduced by moving the claiming checks back to the method,
but would lead errors to be handled in different ordering, and so the
user to be requested for a password, and then - in case fail.
This can still happen now, but only if there are concurrent requests.
We now can get an invocation-owned sender at any moment with GDBus, so
there's no point of getting it as optional return-out value from the
username check function.
Fprintd is dependent on the deprecated dbus-glib, also this doesn't provide
various features we can take advantage of, like the ones for async
authentication mechanism.
So, remove all the dbus-glib dependencies and simplify the code, but without
any further refactor, and keeping everything as it used to work, while this
will give room for further improvements in subsequent commits.
Internally, we just use dbus-codegen to generate the skeletons, and we
use the generated FprintdDBusManager with composition, while we
implement the device skeleton interface in FprintDevice, so that we
don't have to use it as a proxy, and keep being closer to what it used
to be with dbus-glib.
Fixes: #61
libfprint 1.90.1 supports early match result report which allows to inform
the clients as soon as the driver detected a match/no-match without having
to wait the whole device driver deactivation.
Use this feature in fprintd, by emitting the "VerifyStatus" signal as soon
as we've an usable result we can inform the client about.
As per this, ignore any possible error we may get afterwards, due to device
issues or late user cancellation, as the point of the verification action
(i.e. getting a match/no-match) can be considered accomplished.
Fixes https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libfprint/fprintd/issues/35
If a client vanishes while we are opening or closing then fprintd would
uncoditionally try to close the device immediately. This should not be
done, it instead needs to wait for the open/close to complete.
Add open/close to the current action enum and keep track of the fact
that they are ongoing. Also check, whether the device has been closed in
the meantime (after the nested mainloop is done).
Fixes: #65
We were saving the state of a disconnected device because we used a
workaround to figure it out, but now libfprint would provide us a proper
GError in such case, and so we'd handle it without the need of saving the
state, given it's never used anyways.
When starting an enroll when verification is in progress (and vice-versa) we
emit an AlreadyInUse error, however when calling VerifyStop() during an
enrollment (and vice-versa) we just return a NoActionInProgress error, which
is not the case.
So let's be consistent and change the error type.
