PATCHES: Device discovery of the "bluetooth" CUPS backend does not work

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I am using Bluez 4.48 in Ubuntu Karmic. First thank you for applying my patches. The bluetooth backend works perfectly now with CUPS 1.3.x and older. On the new CUPS 1.4.x a new problem appeared: The new CUPS does device discovery only for a given time frame requested by the client (printer setup tool, "lpinfo" command). CUPS's default for CUPS-1.3.x-ish requests without timeout specification seems to be 10 seconds. CUPS startys all backends at once in the beginning (in parallel) and kills every backend which remains running at the end of the timeout. It accepts output from the backends whenever it occurs not only when the backend finishes, so a backend can search for printers infinitely long if it outputs every found device immediately. Then all printers found during CUPS' timeout are taken into account.

The bluetooth backend o 4.48 asks the Bluetooth daemon for printers and collects results for 10 seconds and after that it output them. This takes a total of 10.5 sec and so CUPS kills the backend right before it answers (at least with the 10-second default timeout), resulting in Bluetooth printers never being discovered by CUPS.

I have fixed this now with the attached patch, by making each new printer added to the list being output immediately. Note that the list structure cannot be removed from cups/main.c as otherwise we would get duplicate listings.

Can you please apply this patch to Bluez so that Bluez gets ready for the new CUPS 1.4.x generation? Thanks.
