Fingerprintd:Ta is the second core module: request payloads, response fields,
the error table, and the rule that decides what a frame meant. Payload building
and response reading only -- no TEE, no transport.
Very little of this is guessable, so each constant carries where it came from.
Three were found only because QTEE recorded a fault naming the instruction that
read them:
* the event context's scan-slot count at +712, which do_enroll branches on to
skip the entire slot loop -- an all-zero payload logged "groups->,
results->" and read exactly like a gate failing deep in the trustlet, when
it was zero iterations;
* CAPTURE_IMAGE's flags at payload+0x18, without which preprocessing, the
classifier and the enrol grouper never run at all, whatever is on the
sensor;
* SYNC_STATISTICS, whose absence leaves g_statistics NULL so the first enrol
frame that gets far enough takes a data abort and every later command
answers -90.
The verdict rule gets the most attention because it was mislabelled three times
before the comparison producing it was read. A frame is one of three things and
only the third is a verdict: the poison intact means the matcher never ran,
rc=-11 means not identified yet with attempts remaining, and only rc=0 carries
a match or a rejection. The poison exists because a zero-initialised buffer
cannot tell a released finger from a rejected one.
The tests are in two halves that cannot prop each other up. Explicit wire
conditions pin the classifier; three recorded runs pin the counting policy,
which is what actually went wrong. In the stock-budget run 31 of 48 frames
answered "not identified yet" and every frame that carried an image matched --
counting those 31 as attempts turns 8-for-8 into 8-of-39 and reads as a flaky
sensor. The wrong-finger control pins zero false accepts.
Fixtures are verdict-line excerpts, not the 40 KB transcripts, which are thick
with the device's SFS container names the test has no use for.
Verified by mutation: classifying -11 as a rejection, dropping SYNC_STATISTICS
from the init chain, and forgetting the +0x10 response payload offset each fail
the suite.

fingerprintd
Fingerprint daemon for the Fairphone 6 (milos, SM7635) on mainline Linux.
Why a daemon
The sensor is a FocalTech FT9391 on a TrustZone-owned SPI bus. spi@a88000 is
disabled in both the mainline and the stock Android device tree, and the pads
are XPU-protected — touching them from the normal world is an instant SError
reboot. Every pixel the sensor produces stays inside the TEE: capture,
preprocessing, the classifier, enrolment and matching all run in the focal64
trustlet, which reports a matched finger id and nothing else. A libfprint-style
driver cannot exist on this device.
So the normal world's job is narrower than usual, and none of it is per-request work:
- Power the sensor. Rail on gpio29, reset on gpio74, interrupt on gpio75 — the same division of labour the downstream driver uses. One sensor reset buys exactly one trustlet init, so whatever powers the sensor must also hold the session open.
- Be QTEE's filesystem. QTEE cannot reach storage. When the trustlet saves
or loads a template it calls back into the normal world through the
gpfile(0x7000) and RPMB (0x2000) listeners, and expects them served. QTEE does the crypto and the anti-rollback; this side moves opaque bytes and performs the authenticated RPMB transactions against the UFS device. - Speak a biometrics API. The daemon owns
net.reactivated.Fprint, sopam_fprintd, the Plasma fingerprint KCM andfprintd-enroll(1)work against it unmodified.
A listener registration is held for as long as the process lives and QTEE's listener table is global to the boot, so this has to be one long-lived process rather than a tool spawned per request.
Layout
interfaces/ Fingerprintd{,-Sfs}.cppm the core: pure C++ modules
implementations/main.cpp the daemon shell
tests/ one suite per core module
fingerprintd-core is a static library with no GLib, no libqcomtee and no
system headers. Everything in it is a wire format or a state machine that was
recovered by reverse-engineering, so all of it is pinned by tests that run on a
dev box with no phone, no TEE and no sensor. The daemon shell holds everything
that touches hardware.
Build
crafter-build # bin/fingerprintd-<target>-<march>/fingerprintd
crafter-build test # the unit suites
Cross-compiling for the phone:
crafter-build -- --target=aarch64-alpine-linux-musl \
--sysroot=<alpine-aarch64-sysroot> --march=armv8-a --mtune=generic
crafter-build test --target=aarch64-alpine-linux-musl
Status
Early. The core is being ported one wire format at a time out of the research
harness that first made the sensor work (utilities/fpta.c in the fp6 repo),
each piece landing with tests before the next starts. Fingerprintd:Sfs — the
gpfile frame — is done. The daemon itself does not run yet.
The working reference enrols a finger, keeps it across a reboot, and matches it with zero false accepts; the port exists to turn that into a service rather than to rediscover it.
Runtime dependencies, not carried here
The focal64 trustlet is proprietary and is not in this repo. It is
extracted from the device's own stock Android partition on first boot by the
fp6-vendor-blobs mechanism, the same way the audio firmware is.
