PCSC API spy for GNU systems

Executive summary


  1. Copy the file ltrace.conf to ~/.ltrace.conf
  2. Use with: ltrace -l/usr/lib/libpcsclite.so your_application

Discussion


It may be difficult to debug a PC/SC application. You can ask pcscd to generate logs using --debug but these logs are mainly to trace problems at the reader level, not at the application level.

ltrace


ltrace (wikipedia)
ltrace is a debugging utility in Linux to monitor the library calls used by a program and all the signals it receives. It can also show system calls, used by a program.

It is easy to use ltrace to trace a program. I will use the testpcsc program included in pcsc-lite as a PC/SC sample code:
$ ltrace .libs/testpcsc

Limitations


By default ltrace lists all the calls from all the libraries. You can restrict the tracing to one specific library using: -l/usr/lib/libpcsclite.so

The PC/SC API calls are not really useful. You have to parse the argument by hand. It is not easy to know what SCardConnect(0x103a3a0, 0x96ea118, 2, 3, 0xbfdfacdc) = 0 is really doing.

ltrace PCSC configuration file


ltrace can use a configuration file to parse the arguments of the functions and display a (more) human readable version.

The configuration file uses a very simple format. For example for SCardConnect I used:
scarderror SCardConnect(scardcontext, string, share_mode, protocol, +scardhandle*, +protocol*);

A ltrace configuration file is now included in the pcsc-lite project in the new contrib/ directory. Just copy the file to ~/.ltrace.conf.

Example with the configuration file


$ ltrace -l/usr/lib/libpcsclite.so .libs/testpcsc

  • Call to other libraries (lib C in particular) are no more displayed
  • PCSC functions arguments are displayed in a human form

If I reuse the same SCardConnect example we now have:
SCardConnect(0x103d6cb, "Lenovo Integrated Smart Card Rea"..., SCARD_SHARE_SHARED, SCARD_PROTOCOL_T0_SCARD_PROTOCOL_T1, 126261, SCARD_PROTOCOL_T1) = SCARD_S_SUCCESS

We get:
  • Connection context to the PC/SC Resource Manager. It is just a random numeric value: 0x103d6cb
  • Reader name to connect to: "Lenovo Integrated Smart Card Rea"...
  • Mode of connection type: exclusive or shared. SCARD_SHARE_SHARED
  • Desired protocol use: SCARD_PROTOCOL_T0_SCARD_PROTOCOL_T1
  • Handle to this connection: 126261
  • Established protocol to this connection: SCARD_PROTOCOL_T1
  • Return code: SCARD_S_SUCCESS

Conclusion


I discovered the use of ltrace very recently. The configuration file may contain bugs. But I hope it will be useful.
