When using the delete method we check if the device was claimed, if this
fails because the device is already in use we return an error, but we don't
free the user.
While this could be fixed by just a further g_free call, let's just remove
remove the other manual free calls, and use an auto-pointer instead for this
function.
During delete enrolled fingers2 call, if the check-claimed control fails, we
would return the error without freeing it.
While this could be fixed by just a further g_error_free call, let's just
remove the other manual free call, and use an auto-pointer instead for this
function.
During delete enrolled fingers call, if the check-claimed control fails, and
we get an error different from FPRINT_ERROR_CLAIM_DEVICE, we would return
the error without freeing it.
While this could be fixed by just a further g_error_free call, let's just
remove all the manual free calls, and use an auto-pointer instead for this
function.
With the stronger warnings enabled when building with meson, we get a
warning for all the fingers definitions:
../src/device.c:38:24: warning: initialization discards ‘const’ qualifier
from pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]
38 | [FP_FINGER_UNKNOWN] = "unknown",
As the `fingers` array name was shadowed in another file:
../src/device.c:1000:11: warning: declaration of ‘fingers’ shadows a
global declaration [-Wshadow]
1000 | GSList *fingers, *finger;
Use the device session data to store all the informations we care about
while a device is claimed, and make its cleanup easier.
Keep just one instance of the current context, given we use it only during
claim and release, and those are mutually exclusive operations.
Allocate SessionData using g_malloc(). There are no benefits to using
GSlice for a seldom used structure. This also allows use to use
g_clear_pointer() to free the struct.
This API was added to libfprint to allow drivers to report the match
result early before the operation has been completed. No driver makes
use of this facility yet and instead drivers try to finish the
operation early for quick result reporting. This primarily means not
waiting for finger removal.
Once drivers are updated, fprintd reactivity will regress unless the
early match callback is implemented as they would only get an operation
finished callback when the whole of the operation was finished,
including finger removal and finishing up USB communications.

Some devices require storing the print on the device, to support this,
try deleting prints from the device before deleting them from local
storage.
To handle these devices, add a new API that requires the device to be
claimed rather than allowing deletion without claiming the device first.
Also add appropriate fallbacks so that the old API will continue to
work, but warn about its use.
The new libfprint version has support for devices that store data on the
sensor. In that case, the on-sensor storage might fill up when the user
tries to enroll a new print.
The strategy introduced here to handle this is to try and delete prints
from the device that we do not know about (assuming, it is e.g. from an
old installation and unusable).
It can also happen that we are not able to garbage collect old prints.
If that happens, a new error code "enroll-data-full" will be returned
signalling the situation to the enrolling application.
fprintd's API docs say that "retry" errors for verification
"the verification is still ongoing" and that "[the] user should retry
scanning their finger.
Unfortunately, retry errors are fatal in libfprint. Make fprintd restart
operations when "retry" is the error for either identification or
verification purposes.
We need to also make sure that a "*Stop" D-Bus call will return as
normal if called while we're stopping a verification or identification
in order to restart it.
Closes: #22
Fix a possible crash when an fprintd client disappears. If the client
requested for the device to be released, then, without waiting for the
reply of that release, disappeared from the bus, we would try to close
it a second time, accessing a function pointer that didn't exist
anymore.

Pretty hacky way to detect whether the device we're handling has
been disconnected during a verify or enrollment. This should allow
us to avoid users having to wait when somebody pulls the plug.
- Use D-Bus native properties instead of a GetProperties call.
- Fix a number of front-ends by registering the right signals and
marshallers following the "done" signal argument addition
- Fix VerifyStart call in the pam module
This is a gross hack for PAM sessions to work as expected. root
is allowed to verify any users. If you want to allow any other
actions for root, you'll need to go through normal PolicyKit
procedures.
This should fix fingerprint authentication not working in GDM, or
on the console.
Track clients connected to each device using EggDbusMonitor.
When there are no more clients connected to the device, release it.
When no devices are used anymore, set up a timeout to exit within
30 seconds.
