<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi - <br>
</div>
<br>
<p>I needed to go take a quick look at 7816-3 to figure out what's
what.</p>
<p>Basically, this code is a bit problematic. <br>
</p>
<p>1) Since this code doesn't support extended length APDUs for T=0,
you should never have to do multiple calls to get the responses -
e.g. the max response handled here should be 256 bytes. But this
is the only case in which the GetResponse code should actually be
active??? T=1 uses low level mapping of I-Blocks rather than an
APDU mapping. And looking at pcsc.c - you've got 8192 as the
maximum size for a per-call return from SCardTransmit, and I'm not
sure what SCardTransmit will do - I'm wondering if its returning
the 6Cxx error code.<br>
</p>
<p>2) The iteration count should probably be set from the Le value
in the transmitted CommandAPDU rather than set to a fixed value.
Or even better, don't use an iteration count, but simply count
down from the specified Le and stop when negative.</p>
<p>I'm very confused now. <br>
</p>
<p>What protocol is the customer using? What's the actual APDU
they're sending to get the data? (Mostly curious about Lc and Le
here).<br>
</p>
<p>If you changed the iteration loop to parse the Le field and use
that to count down received data, would that break things?<br>

on my reading of this standard and the CardImpl code, it looks
like the while-true loop is for retrieving additional response
data. Per the standard and javadoc, max length of the response
data is 65536. Given that SW2 is only one byte, it would
probably only return at most 256 byte response data at a time.
Thus, the iteration count would be at most 256.<br>

<p>So far we are on the same page. <br>
</p>
<p>With the latest webrev (webrev.01), it seems that the loop will
only be run 255 instead of 256 times as k is incremented before
comparison. Thus, I think we should fix the check.<br>

Valerie! <br>
<br>
To be honest, the all these limitations are not quite clear to
me. <br>
<br>
If the command is using an extended Le word to specify the
expected length of the response data, then this length can be at
most 65536. <br>
<br>
If a short Le was used, then the length can be at most 256. <br>
<br>
However, if we received 0x61 in the SW1, that means that more
data bytes are available and they can be retrieved by issuing
another transmit call with a short Le. This next call can again
potentially result in 0x61 in SW1, and so on. <br>
<br>
In the standard, I cannot see any explicit limitations on the
number of retries. So, I see it as it might be possible to
retrieve more data than 65536 bytes. <br>
<br>
On the other hand, in the specification for CommandAPDU [1] we
have hardcoded limit for the maximum response length, which is
65536. So, even if it were possible to retrieve larger data,
there's no point to try, as the current API prohibits it. <br>
<br>
Assuming that the 0x61 response can only be received when a
short Le is used, the maximum RESPONSE_ITERATOR should be set to
256, and an exception should be thrown once that number is
exceeded. <br>
<br>
I've updated the webrev in-place accordingly. <br>

You removed the "=", so the actual iteration count is reduced
by one. <br>
<br>
Should the iteration count be 256 or 257? If the actual count
should be 257, then may be the check needs to be changed to
k++ from ++k? <br>

It's a good point about maximum length. <br>
<br>
Here's the updated webrev with the new System property
dropped and the increased number of iterations: <br>

Current implementation of the method
javax.smartcardio.CardChannel.transmit() has an internal
limitation on the maximum allowed amount of the
transmitted data. <br>
<br>
This limitation is dictated by the maximum number of
iterations to transmit data from a card: Each iteration
can transmit up to 256 bytes of data, and we have a
hardcoded limit of 32 iterations. <br>
<br>
Over time, we've received requests to increase this
limit, as there are occasions when the effective limit
of 8k is not enough. <br>
<br>
Would you please help review a proposal: First, it is
proposed to increase the default limit of iteration to
128 (so that up to 32k of data can be transmitted);
Second, the limit of iterations is made configurable via
a System property. This limit can be increased up to
4096 (so that the total amount of transmitted data can
be made up to 1m). <br>

Given that the maximum length for an extended APDU is 64K
(65536) (hmm +7 for the header and +2 for LE), and for its
return is 64K + 2 bytes, I'm not quite sure why you'd up
the number to 4096/1M - I'd set the default and fixed
value to 257 (64K) and leave it at that. <br>
