Background ========== - Priority scale: High, Medium and Low - Complexity scale: C1, C2, C4 and C8. The complexity scale is exponential, with complexity 1 being the lowest complexity. Complexity is a function of both task 'complexity' and task 'scope'. Core ==== - Writer Mode Priority: Medium Complexity: C4 Dependencies: Core:NDEF building library Owner: Ravi kumar Veeramally In writer mode, neard allows application to write to an NFC tag, or to push data to a p2p device. - Card Emulation Mode Priority: High Complexity: C8 Dependencies: Core:NDEF building library Owner: Samuel Ortiz In card emulation mode, the NFC adapter is in passive mode, and gets activated by an initiator mode device. Then the initiator sends command that the target is supposed to interpret and respond to. Most of the commands are tag specific. For a proper card emulation mode support, the NFC adapter must enter the polling loop and not only initiate the RF field, but then wait for intiator to activate it. Once activated, the NFC socket should enter the accept state, and dispatch the various commands to the right plugins (one per protocol, a.k.a. tags). Reader mode =========== - MIFARE tag support Priority: Medium Complexity: C4 Owner: Olivier Guiter - Bluetooth Handover integration Priority: Medium Complexity: C4 Owner: Olivier Guiter The handover integration has to be done between bluetoothd, obexd and neard. obexd should be able to expose and OOB NDEF in order for an NFC peer to initiate a BT pairing. The potentially queued OBEX transfers should then start once the pairing is done. On the other hand, neard should be able to talk with bluetoothd for pairing with a remote peer exporting an OOB NDEF. Once the pairing is done, obexd should be able to handle the OBEX transfer. p2p mode ======== - NPP client support Priority: Low Conplexity: C2 Dependencies: Core:Writer mode Owner: Samuel Ortiz For pushing NDEFs through NPP over LLCP, neard has to behave as an NPP client. - SNEP support Priority: High Conplexity: C4 Dependencies: Core:Writer mode Owner: Samuel Ortiz SNEP is the NFC Forum defined standard for exchanging NDEFs over an LLCP link. SNEP can be run as a client or a server, respectively to send and receive NDEFs.
