This actually fixes the issue abort req not sending if user cancels the
transfer because in user cancel scenario, ABORT req will be queued
but before G_IO_OUT happens the transport will be disconnected.
This is actually required to pass a pts test case because pts requires
ABORT before disconnection.
I fully understand that this needs to be fixed, it's just that the way
you're proposing is not a good way to do it.
So I have two solutions after considering your and Luiz's opinion. '
1. In g_obex_send_internal() if the packet is ABORT we should send it
immediately using write_data(). Since ABORT packet size is small I think
it is ok to block the write.
Nope, it's never ok to block on write.
2. If user cancels transfer just send ABORT and disconnect transport
only
after getting the response. But waiting for ABORT response is not
good I feel.
I think it *is* good to wait for the response. I've seen devices which
break if you disconnect the transport without waiting for OBEX
Disconnect command response and there could also be devices which
exhibit similar behavior for Abort.
I have already sent a patch which wait for abort response before
disconnection.
Subject: [PATCH obexd] client: Fix ABORT command not sending when user
cancels the transfer.
Please review it and let me know your comments
I think this needs to be fixed on a higher layer than gobex as gobex
already provides a mechanism for waiting for the completion (or
cancellation) of a command.
Thanks,
Jaganath
