pcsc_scan detection for SPI connected PN532

[ronie19]

I have connected a pn532 board via SPI port. I have successfully installed libnfc and it is able to get detected by nfc-list and nfc-poll.
What do I need to do so that it gets detected by pcsc_scan as well????

[ronie19]

I am using this with PN532 with SPI connected to Linux board GPIOs. NFC is working. How to integrate and do ifdnfc-activate for the same to integrate with pcsc ?

EDIT:
I've got it working. See here

Having the same trouble here. Only difference is I connected it using i2c (should be no real significant difference i suspect). And I would like to apologise in advance if I attach many redundant info here. I'm fairly new to this thing.

Edit: I forgot, my architecture is arm64 in case it helps with something.

Here is my output:

ifdnfc-activate:

Could not find a reader named: IFD-NFC
Cannot find a smart card reader.

I also can't help but notice a config file for a reader at /etc/reader.conf.d/ so i made one
/etc/reader.conf.d/libifdnfc

FRIENDLYNAME      "IFD-NFC"
LIBPATH           /usr/local/lib/libifdnfc.so

and finally a config for the reader itself:
/etc/nfc/libnfc.conf

device.name = "IFD-NFC"
device.connstring = "pn532_i2c:/dev/i2c-1"

[karima-xyz]

@ronie19 I've got it working. I changed the config for the /etc/reader.conf.d/libifdnfc to this value:

FRIENDLYNAME      "IFD-NFC"
DEVICENAME        /dev/i2c-1
LIBPATH           /usr/local/lib/libifdnfc.so
CHANNELID         1

AND THEN i started the pcscd. If you'd like to debug it, run it with -s -f -d flag.
Now, here's the output of my pcsc_scan:

Using reader plug'n play mechanism

@ronie19 And finally, I've found this file README that isn't on the project home. So yes, it confuse me

Awesome. Can you check once for SPI and let me know. I am out of my home lab till next month.

Awesome. Can you check once for SPI and let me know. I am out of my home lab till next month.

Unfortunately, I can't. I've broken my SPI connection on the PN532 module. But now I've finally understood how all of this works. The good news is that it is fairly straighforward to do.

1. Add a new device for the PCSC Daemon. It acts as a server in a sense, and libnfc is the client. It is the configuration file that I've attached earlier. See this for reference. Also, here is my final /etc/reader.conf.d/libifdnfc:

FRIENDLYNAME      "IFD-NFC"
LIBPATH           /usr/local/lib/libifdnfc.so
CHANNELID         0

The most important thing here is the FRIENDLYNAME and the LIBPATH. It'll tell the daemon to register the shared object as the provided name. ifdnfc-activate require a device named IFD-NFC on the server.

2. Now, start the daemon. ifdnfc-activate will then communicate with the daemon to turn on the device used by libnfc. In this case, it is defined at /etc/nfc/libnfc.conf. Here's my final config:

device.name = "IFD-NFC"
device.connstring = "pn532_i2c:/dev/i2c-1"

Do note that the name doesn't need to be IFD-NFC here as it is not used by the ifdnfc-activate at this point. So in your case, change it to use the SPI protocol.

3. Now here comes the odd thing. I don't know the cause either but my the device is working as intended. I do all of this on a Raspberry Pi OS 10 (Buster) arm64, and my ifdnfc-activate output tells me the device is not activated. However, running the libnfc with log level debug and the PCSC Daemon on the same log level, I can clearly see that the device is indeed working.

Awesome. Can you check once for SPI and let me know. I am out of my home lab till next month.

Unfortunately, I can't. I've broken my SPI connection on the PN532 module. But now I've finally understood how all of this works. The good news is that it is fairly straighforward to do.

1. Add a new device for the PCSC Daemon. It acts as a server in a sense, and libnfc is the client. It is the configuration file that I've attached earlier. See this for reference. Also, here is my final /etc/reader.conf.d/libifdnfc:

FRIENDLYNAME      "IFD-NFC"
LIBPATH           /usr/local/lib/libifdnfc.so
CHANNELID         0

The most important thing here is the FRIENDLYNAME and the LIBPATH. It'll tell the daemon to register the shared object as the provided name. ifdnfc-activate require a device named IFD-NFC on the server.

1. Now, start the daemon. ifdnfc-activate will then communicate with the daemon to turn on the device used by libnfc. In this case, it is defined at /etc/nfc/libnfc.conf. Here's my final config:

device.name = "IFD-NFC"
device.connstring = "pn532_i2c:/dev/i2c-1"

Do note that the name doesn't need to be IFD-NFC here as it is not used by the ifdnfc-activate at this point. So in your case, change it to use the SPI protocol.

1. Now here comes the odd thing. I don't know the cause either but my the device is working as intended. I do all of this on a Raspberry Pi OS 10 (Buster) arm64, and my ifdnfc-activate output tells me the device is not activated. However, running the libnfc with log level debug and the PCSC Daemon on the same log level, I can clearly see that the device is indeed working.

No luck yet. I changed the /etc/nfc/libnfc.conf config file to:
devicename = "IFD-NFC"
device.connstring="pn532_spi:/dev/spidev0.0:50000"

and also /etc/reader.conf.d/libifdnfc to

FRIENDLYNAME "IFD-NFC"
LIBPATH /usr/local/lib/libifdnfc.so
CHANNELID 0

though it shows up in pcsc_scan as Reader 2 but doesn't read rfid card while running pcsc_scan
it shows is :
Reader 2 : IFD-NFC 00 00
Event number: 0
Card State: Card Removed

while ifdnfc-activate shows :
Insufficient buffer

Any leads ? Some ideas pls

Hmmm, try to set the log level to debug, then post the output of the pcscd and the ifdnfc-activate here.

Hmmm, insufficient buffer implies that the program (in this case, the ifdnfc-activate) cannot allocate enought memory to be used. But the cause itself, I need to dig into the source code which I don't have the time for now as I also have my own schedule. Maybe someone else can help.

even for my i2c connection on raspberry pi, it says insufficient buffer.

Dumb question: When I try ifdnfc-activate I always get an command not found: ifdnfc-activate. So far I have not been able to find out where to install it from. Any suggestions?
