Re: [RFC PATCHv2] autopair: add autopair plugin

No update just yet,

Project cycles what they are, the rough first draft of this plugin is
sufficient for our testing needs right now, and I'm working on the rough
first draft of the integration with the rest of the system.

I'll be coming back to clean this up in a few weeks :) if you want to do
any work on it in the mean time, please do, multiple people working on a
patch is always a good thing!

The PIN length hint is also ignored in the current code:
+       <device type="audio" oui="00:1A:80:" name="CMT-DH5BT"

pin="max:4"/>

Because that's a UI restriction, no?

I didn't put any PIN-generation code here, because I'm not entirely
sure what the UI for "generate random PIN' should look like or which
spec you're following.

It means that a generated PIN shouldn't have more than 4 digits for

to work with this device.

What generated PIN? Which spec/profile says you have to generate a PIN
for this device?

It's recommended that the UIs try to generate PINs for the users, rather
than relying on them entering random numbers.

Recommended where? Can you point at least at the correct document?

The only recommendation I'm aware of is in the HID profile, which
would not apply here, and strangely you don't use this max: form for
keyboards which would be the only devices they applied to.


The description matches the HID profile behavior I've sumitted as a
separate set of CLs.

Any update on this plugin? It would make the wiimote plugin obsolete
and allow us to select PINs based on device-names.

If you do not intend to continue your work here I will try fixing the
stuff and resubmit it.

David
