Samba

Allows for the use of networked folder access.

Features/additions:

  • Samba related files & libraries
  • Pre-set folder paths to Roms/Saves/SD Root & Screenshots. (More can be added in .tmp_update/config/smb.conf)

Issues

Currently only works correctly if the call to start it comes from runtime.sh. There seems to be an environment/permissions issue which causes smbd to run but not allow access into subdirectories. ~ Confirmed fixed.
#973 (comment)

TO-DO

  • Do not share rootSD by default
  • Implement shares toggles in Tweaks (possibly dynamically from the contents of smb.conf)

Test process

  • Boot up with samba disabled
  • Go to tweaks, network, enable Samba with the master toggle (using default config)
  • Browse to the network share (windows: \\x.x.x.x\ in explorer window, where x is the IP of the MMP)
  • Check you have root directory access
  • Check you can transfer a file to any of the folders, verify the file exists on the MMP with a ls
  • Check files are visible from windows when a touch command is made
  • Make a change to the file on windows, cat the file on the MMP - make sure changes synchronise
  • Rename the file, make sure the change propagates across
  • Check you have subdirectory access (EG, open Roms, open a folder that has Roms in it, make sure they're visible)
  • Go down into the Samba submenu
  • Disable some shares & refresh your explorer window when in the root location - observe the folders are removed
  • Enable the shares & refresh your explorer window when in the root location - observe the folders are restored
  • Disable wifi, return to tweaks - observe samba is disabled
  • Enable wifi, return to tweaks, enable samba - observe samba is enabled and directory access restored

Add test code

There's currently an issue, where if runtime.sh starts the process it all works fine, but if tweaks starts it, it does not. (This seems wrong has runtime.sh is the parent of tweaks).

The current code on this branch requires you to:

Open tweaks
Turn samba on
Exit tweaks

This causes a naturally start to Samba.

If you remove start_smbd from check function, and move line 135 down into check_smbdstate it causes a situation where smbd will start but the shares aren't browsable.

If you add a call to "check" function in "check_smbdstate" it also doesn't work.. the call to start needs to come from runtime.sh

It's either an env var issue or a permissions issue.

Fix applied for directory issue - pending full test
bc3f576 
Preloading libpadsp.so (which is inherited from the parent shell) is the cause for the issues with smbd not displaying subdirectories, why? i don't know - either libpadsp.so contains conflicting symbols or it breaks the environment that smbd spawns in somehow.

Test process number 1 complete on 215 - Looking like bc3f576 has resolved directory issues.

Added some functions to allow management of the shares instantly - smbcontrol didn't end up being requiredas smbd is actively watching the config file (or appears to be, changes are instant)

  • Need to find a home for:
    free(shares);
    If it's in the menu it causes problems due to how I've handled the action..... (maybe not the best way) - the smb.conf will run away (gets filled with garbage/junk) - It could be called when we exit the menu (returning back to "Network") or when we quit tweaks.

  • When you go down into the Samba submenu, coming back up looks like you've also disabled the Master toggle for samba (it's aesthetic, smbd is still running)

  • I've added whitespace after the "no " in "browseable" within smb.conf so the put clears the full line (instead of it being "nos" at the end when we toggle it..) could probably clear the line and rewrite it as the location is stored in browseablePos within the Share struct

  • Error handling needs fixing as it'll segfault currently if smb.conf doesn't exist.
