pcsc-lite-1.6.1: Ludovic Rousseau
4 June 2010
- SCardControl(): do not check for card events since we are talking to
the reader not the card. A smart card removal should not make
SCardControl() fail with SCARD_W_REMOVED_CARD
- pcscd do not timeout any more after 2 minutes of inactivity. If the
other side of the socket dies we will get an error from the kernel.
The problem was that if a client does nothing during
PCSCLITE_READ_TIMEOUT (120 seconds by default) then pcscd considers it
as a dead client and closes the connection. I guess this problem was
present since the first version of pcsc-lite but nobody complained
before.
- pcscd: do not return before most of the initialisation are done
correctly. The idea is that pcscd can return an error code if the
daemon fails to start correctly (hald not started for example).
Before the patch pcscd became a daemon, then returned 0 (success) and
then continued with the initialisation. If the initialisation failed
it was too late to return an error code. The /etc/init.d/pcscd script
was not aware of the failure.

"/usr/sbin/pcscd exit codes broken"
- src/hotplug_libusb.c: Add a synchronisation so that if pcscd is auto
started the initial reader list is available before the server takes
commands from clients.
Before the change early calls of SCardListReaders() returned an empty
list of readers even if a reader was connected.
Thanks to Patrice Angelini for the bug report
- SCardConnect() & SCardReconnect(): do not reset the cardProtocol in
SCARD_SHARE_DIRECT case since the card have _not_ been reseted. A new
PPS negociation would fail.
- Do not install files in /etc any more. Serial drivers are rare now.
- Avoids a crash if a client sends a unknown command.
Thanks to Martin Vogt for the bug report
