DESCRIPTION
The fido_dev_set_io_functions() function sets the I/O handlers used by
libfido2 to talk to dev. By default, these handlers are set to the
operating system's native HID or NFC interfaces. They are defined as
follows:
Receives the opaque pointer returned by fido_dev_open_t and
closes the device.
fido_dev_read_t
Reads a single transmission unit (HID report, APDU) from a
device. The first parameter is the opaque pointer returned by
fido_dev_open_t. The second parameter is the read buffer, and
the third parameter is the read buffer size. The fourth
parameter is the number of milliseconds the caller is willing to
sleep, should the call need to block. If this value holds -1,
fido_dev_read_t may block indefinitely. On success, the number
of bytes read is returned. On error, -1 is returned.
fido_dev_write_t
Writes a single transmission unit (HID report, APDU) to dev. The
first parameter is the opaque pointer returned by
fido_dev_open_t. The second parameter is the write buffer, and
the third parameter is the number of bytes to be written. A
fido_dev_write_t may block. On success, the number of bytes
written is returned. On error, -1 is returned.
When calling fido_dev_set_io_functions(), the open, close, read, and
write fields of io may not be NULL.
No references to io are held by fido_dev_set_io_functions().
The fido_dev_set_sigmask() function may be used to specify a non-NULL
signal mask sigmask to be used while libfido2's default I/O handlers wait
on dev. On UNIX-like operating systems, fido_sigset_t is defined as
sigset_t. On Windows, fido_sigset_t is defined as int and
fido_dev_set_sigmask() is a no-op.
No references to sigmask are held by fido_dev_set_sigmask().
The fido_dev_set_timeout() function informs libfido2 not to block for
more than ms milliseconds while communicating with dev. If a timeout
occurs, the corresponding fido_dev_* function will fail with FIDO_ERR_RX.
If ms is -1, then libfido2 may block indefinitely. This is the default
behaviour. When using the Windows Hello backend, ms is used as a
guidance and may be overwritten by the platform.
The fido_dev_set_transport_functions() function sets the transport
functions used by libfido2 to talk to dev. While the I/O handlers are
responsible for sending and receiving transmission units of
initialization and continuation packets already formatted by libfido2,
the transport handlers are responsible for sending and receiving the
CTAPHID commands and data directly, as defined in the FIDO Client to
Authenticator Protocol (CTAP) standard. They are defined as follows:
fido_dev_tx_t
Receives a device, a CTAPHID command to transmit, a data buffer
to transmit, and the length of the data buffer. On success, 0 is
returned. On error, -1 is returned.
fido_dev_rx_t
Receives a device, a CTAPHID command whose response the caller
expects to receive, a data buffer to receive into, the size of
the data buffer determining the maximum length of a response, and
the maximum number of milliseconds to wait for a response. On
The fido_dev_io_handle() function returns the opaque pointer returned by
the open function of the I/O handlers. This is useful mainly for the
transport functions, which unlike the I/O handlers are passed the
fido_dev_t pointer instead of the opaque I/O handle.
RETURN VALUES
On success, fido_dev_set_io_functions(),
fido_dev_set_transport_functions(), fido_dev_set_sigmask(), and
fido_dev_set_timeout() return FIDO_OK. On error, a different error code
defined in <fido/err.h> is returned.
