As stated in AVRCP 1.6.2 chapter 6.10.2.3 Media element item, for the Displayable Name Length property, the target device may truncate the item name: Length of Displayable Name in octets. The name shall be limited such that a response to a GetFolderItems containing one media player item fits within the maximum size of PDU which can be received by the CT. This truncatation may occur in the middle of a multi-byte character, at least with Samsung Music app, which triggers a DBus assertion and crashes bluetoothd: profiles/audio/player.c:media_folder_create_item() Din Dhal Jaye Haye with lyrics | "दिन ढल जाए हाय" गाने के बो� type audio uid 1 profiles/audio/player.c:media_folder_create_item() /org/bluez/hci0/dev_24_24_B7_11_82_6C/player0/NowPlaying/item1 profiles/audio/player.c:media_player_set_metadata() Title: Din Dhal Jaye Haye with lyrics | "दिन ढल जाए हाय" गाने के बोल | Guide | Dev Anand, Waheeda Rehman … arguments to dbus_message_iter_append_basic() were incorrect, assertion "_dbus_check_is_valid_utf8 (*string_p)" failed in file dbus-message.c line 2775. This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library. v1->v2: - Introduce new strtoutf8() util function to truncate a string before the first non UTF-8 character. - Use strtoutf8() for AVRCP media element name - Use strtoutf8() for MCP player name and track title - Use strtoutf8() for Audio GAP device name - Use strtoutf8() for EIR device names v2->v3: - Use strtoutf8() for AD device names - Add name encoding tests to unit/test-eir Frédéric Danis (7): shared/util: Add strtoutf8 function audio/avrcp: Fix crash with invalid UTF-8 item name audio/mcp: Use strtoutf8 for player name and track title audio/gap: Use strtoutf8 for GAP device name eir: Use strtoutf8 for device names shared/ad: Use strtoutf8 for name unit/test-eir: Add name encoding tests profiles/audio/avrcp.c | 4 +++- profiles/audio/mcp.c | 11 +--------- profiles/gap/gas.c | 11 +--------- src/eir.c | 11 +--------- src/shared/ad.c | 7 +----- src/shared/util.c | 42 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/shared/util.h | 1 + unit/test-eir.c | 50 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 8 files changed, 100 insertions(+), 37 deletions(-) -- 2.43.0
