.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn fido_dev_set_io_functions
function sets the I/O handlers used by
.Em libfido2
to talk to
.Fa dev .
By default, these handlers are set to the operating system's native HID or NFC
interfaces.
They are defined as follows:
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Vt fido_dev_open_t
Receives a
.Vt const char *
holding a path and opens the corresponding device, returning a
non-NULL opaque pointer on success and NULL on error.
.It Vt fido_dev_close_t
Receives the opaque pointer returned by
.Vt fido_dev_open_t
and closes the device.
.It Vt fido_dev_read_t
Reads a single transmission unit (HID report, APDU) from a device.
The first parameter is the opaque pointer returned by
.Vt 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,
.Vt fido_dev_read_t
may block indefinitely.
On success, the number of bytes read is returned.
On error, -1 is returned.
.It Vt fido_dev_write_t
Writes a single transmission unit (HID report, APDU) to
.Fa dev .
The first parameter is the opaque pointer returned by
.Vt fido_dev_open_t .
The second parameter is the write buffer, and the third parameter
is the number of bytes to be written.
A
.Vt fido_dev_write_t
may block.
On success, the number of bytes written is returned.
On error, -1 is returned.
.El
.Pp
When calling
.Fn fido_dev_set_io_functions ,
the
.Fa open ,
.Fa close ,
.Fa read ,
and
.Fa write
fields of
.Fa io
may not be NULL.
.Pp
No references to
.Fa io
are held by
.Fn fido_dev_set_io_functions .
.Pp
The
.Fn fido_dev_set_sigmask
function may be used to specify a non-NULL signal mask
.Fa sigmask
to be used while
.Em libfido2's
default I/O handlers wait on
.Fa dev .
On UNIX-like operating systems,
.Vt fido_sigset_t
is defined as
.Vt sigset_t .
On Windows,
.Vt fido_sigset_t
is defined as
.Vt int
and
.Fn fido_dev_set_sigmask
is a no-op.
.Pp
No references to
.Fa sigmask
are held by
.Fn fido_dev_set_sigmask .
.Pp
The
.Fn fido_dev_set_timeout
function informs
.Em libfido2
not to block for more than
.Fa ms
milliseconds while communicating with
.Fa dev .
If a timeout occurs, the corresponding
.Em fido_dev_*
function will fail with
.Dv FIDO_ERR_RX .
If
.Fa ms
is -1,
then
.Em libfido2
may block indefinitely.
This is the default behaviour.
When using the Windows Hello backend,
.Fa ms
is used as a guidance and may be overwritten by the platform.
.Pp
The
.Fn fido_dev_set_transport_functions
function sets the transport functions used by
.Em libfido2
to talk to
.Fa dev .
While the I/O handlers are responsible for sending and receiving
transmission units of initialization and continuation packets already
formatted by
.Em 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:
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Vt 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.
.It Vt 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 success, the number of bytes read into the data buffer is returned.
On error, -1 is returned.
.El
.Pp
When transport functions are specified,
.Em libfido2
will use them instead of the
.Dv read
and
.Dv write
functions of the I/O handlers.
However, the I/O handlers must still be specified to open and close the
device.
.Pp
The
.Fn fido_dev_io_handle
function returns the opaque pointer returned by the
.Dv open
function of the I/O handlers.
This is useful mainly for the transport functions, which unlike the I/O
handlers are passed the
.Vt fido_dev_t
pointer instead of the opaque I/O handle.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
On success,
.Fn fido_dev_set_io_functions ,
.Fn fido_dev_set_transport_functions ,
.Fn fido_dev_set_sigmask ,
and
.Fn fido_dev_set_timeout
return
.Dv FIDO_OK .
On error, a different error code defined in
.In fido/err.h
is returned.
