Where do I get. PerfPowerTelemetryClientRegistrationService which is suddenly missing from my system since upgrading to MacOS15/IOS18?

I use NETransparentProxyProvider transparent proxy the outbound data ports 80 and 443, at the same time using CocoaAsyncSocket third party open source libraries for data forwarding At first, handleNewFlow will be called normally, but after running for a period of time, handleNewFlow will not be called again, and the system will not be able to access the Internet unless the vpn is disabled By checking the terminal app log, I found that handleNewFlow will not be called again when the following information is displayed. # Domain=NEAppProxyFlowErrorDomain Code=1 "The operation could not be completed because the flow is not connected" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=The operation could not be completed because the flow is not connected" #

Hello forum, I'm trying to build communications between a non-MFi HID device (say, a keyboard with a USB-C port) and an iOS device over a MFi-licensed cable with Swift, what framework would you suggest? The USB-C cable is MFi-licensed. The keyboard is not MFi-licensed.

Hello, forum, I'm trying to build connection between a non-MFi HID device (like keyboard) and iOS app with IOKit and Swift. Thanks to this post, I have manage to import the IOKit into objc header. IOKit on iOS/iPadOS 16.0+ #import <IOKit/IOKitLib.h> However, I have this compiler error when I try to imitate same methods in the SerialPortSaple project from following article, but the IOKit can not be imported to Swift at first place. Communicating with a Modem on a Serial Port The screen shot of the sample project: It looks like the complier unable to reach the io_object_t type somehow, is there any workaround or approach?

I have a USBDriverKit driver which tries to send vendor-specific DeviceRequests to the IOUSBHostDevice. A few short months ago this worked, and as far as I know, the only change since it last worked is an update to macOS 14.5. The dext user client calls through to the driver, which wants to do this: ivars->mDevice->Open() ivars->mDevice->DeviceRequest() ivars->mDevice->Close() the problem is that the call to Open returns 0xe00002cde, which is kIOReturnNotOpen. If I don't call Open, but simply call DeviceRequest, I get the same result, kIOReturnNotOpen, which I would expect. I'm pretty sure that in macOS 14.4, the call to Open() did not return an error. I haven't seen any system logs that clue me in to why Open() is failing. It would be handy if the error gave me some reason why the device cannot be opened. Has anyone else seen this? I've searched high and low and I can't find any examples of dexts which actually do anything at all with a USB device.

hi all. I subscribe the notify write event, every time I recieve a notify write event message i will send log data and reply block(didn't do nothing) with async method to host app(Objc XPC API).host app will reply immediately once it recieves data. after a while my sysext crashed, then I checked system log find the log below. launchd: exited with exit reason (namespace: 30 code: 0xc40000000004aaaa) - (unknown reason) is it because of exceeding the maximum limit of xpc's block queue length, or too many memory allocation, or... by the way, host app didn't crash. how this happened exactly? how could i solve it?

Hello. Is there a legal way to block iOS devices from being mounted on macOS? I noticed, that when an iOS device is connected, it pretends to be like a storage device but it is not. It not even going through diskArbitration. It seems that some fileProvider is taking place there. I know that it is possible to do via the MDM profile: <key>PayloadContent</key> <dict> <key>.GlobalPreferences</key> <dict> <key>Forced</key> <array> <dict> <key>mcx_preference_settings</key> <dict> <key>ignore-devices</key> <true/> </dict> </dict> </array> </dict> </dict> But is there some programmatic solution? If I use EndpointSecurity and block file operations for the usbmuxd process on /var folder, it prevents iOS devices from being mounted. But wouldn't be there any negative side effects from such a solution?

Hi everyone, first-time caller, long-ti... wait, no, I just got here. :) I am relatively new to all things Apple, so apologies in advance if it takes me a few goes to properly explain things. We have a framework, which includes an API, an XPC service, etc, and we have a device driver. We also have some sample apps that use the framework, and if they have the app sandbox capability, then we expect them to use the XPC Service instead of accessing our driver directly. This works fine on Monterey and presumably has worked fine on all previous versions of MacOS. Something seems to have changed on Ventura, and we don't understand what. When we build the same app on Ventura, it appears to be in the sandbox (according to the Sandbox column in Activity Monitor), but in the Console there is this line (twice): default <time> <OurAppName> Revoking sandbox extension; key = 0 Which we suspect is linked to the fact that the app then does not use the XPC Service, and instead accesses the driver directly, much to our surprise. Software built on developer's machines is "Automatically managed" and "Signed to Run Locally" in case that matters. Do we need to change our code to support Ventura and onward? Or is it a bizarre bug? Oh, I should say that I'm running the latest version of Ventura (13.6.7 as of writing) but not the latest Xcode (14.2 (14C18)) and CLI tools... can't remember how to find that version... Apple clang version 14.0.0 (clang-1400.0.29.202). Any help would be appreciated, thanks. Jeremy

Hi. I am new to ios development and I am using swift to try to develop a sample app to connect a Canon camera to an iphone via a usb cable and I want to use the ImageCaptureCore framework to do this (that is I want to use the USB PTP). Although I see the documentation on the Apple site, I am still unsure where to begin. Is there any tutorials, etc. about where I can get started with this? I was able to find a couple of code snipets and piece together something with ICDeviceBrowser but when I load the program onto my iphone and connect the camera via usb, I am not able to detect any camera. So ideally I am looking for some sort of tutorial that goes through how to do this or if not, what do I have to do to at least be able to detect the camera from the iphone?

We have developed a library and a DriverKit driver on Mac platform. And we need to disable SIP to install dext and later point of time if we enable SIP then the dext is non functional. So is it mandatory to disable the SIP for whole life time of dext? Also it is not recommended to disable the SIP for a long time, as it may create a security hole. Standard ways are given on Apple support page that how to notarise an application to distribute over the internet. Here one mandatory account is required that is Apple Developer account which is a paid account we believe. Standing at this point can you share the complete steps of software distribution process which will include code signing, notarisation process and stapling.

Using IOServiceMatching and IOServiceGetMatchingServices api's written in swift to extract the info of both internal and external USB devices connected. For the same code Intel based Mac OS devices gives all the info like product id , vendor id , Serial number and etc for both external and Internal USB devices( Apple and Non Apple devices connected either to Apple T2 bus or USB bus). For the same code M2 Mac Machine only gives the external device info which are connected to USB, doesn't give any info of Internal USB connected devices. Why is this difference ? Which api's need to be used to extract info of internal USB connected devices even in M2 based Mac machine. Thanks

How can a Dext be activated from C++. Specifically we need to load our Dext from our c++ CoreAudio server plugin. I guess it all boils down to how to call the OSSystemExtensionRequest Swift interface from C++... Thanks for any hints!

The only one I can find it are some code comments in head files, would like to know any detialed workflow or sample code for it. Thanks!

I am using SCSIPeripheralsDriverKit/IOUserSCSIPeripheralDeviceType00 to develop a Dext driver, which has only two classes: MyUserSCSIPeripheralDeviceType00 and MyUserClient, MyUserClient is responsible for receiving APP commands and passing them to MyUserSCSIPeripheralDeviceType00->UserSendCDB(), After the device is connected to the computer, the driver can match the device and start, calling MyUserSCSIPeripheralDeviceType00-->init(), MyUserSCSIPeripheralDeviceType00-->Start(), Any command sent by the APP to MyUserSCSIPeripheralDeviceType00 will return a failure: kIOReturnUnsupported (0xe00002c7), including UserSendCDB(), UserReportMediumBlockSize(), <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>IOKitPersonalities</key> <dict> <key>MySCSIDriver</key> <dict> <key>CFBundleIdentifier</key> <string>$(PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER)</string> <key>CFBundleIdentifierKernel</key> <string>com.apple.kpi.iokit</string> <key>IOClass</key> <string>IOUserService</string> <key>IOMatchCategory</key> <string>$(PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER)</string> <key>IOProviderClass</key> <string>IOSCSIPeripheralDeviceNub</string> <key>IOResourceMatch</key> <string>IOKit</string> <key>IOUserClass</key> <string>MyUserSCSIPeripheralDeviceType00</string> <key>IOUserServerName</key> <string>$(PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER)</string> <key>UserClientProperties</key> <dict> <key>IOClass</key> <string>IOUserUserClient</string> <key>IOUserClass</key> <string>MyUserClient</string> </dict> <key>bConfigurationValue</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>bInterfaceNumber</key> <integer>0</integer> <key>bcdDevice</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>idProduct</key> <string>*</string> <key>idVendor</key> <integer>12345</integer> <key>Peripheral Device Type</key> <integer>0</integer> <key>IOKitDebug</key> <integer>65535</integer> </dict> </dict> </dict> </plist> This is the method that receives client calls kern_return_t MyUserSCSIPeripheralDeviceType00::HandleExternalStruct(IOUserClientMethodArguments* arguments) { kern_return_t ret = kIOReturnSuccess; SCSIType00OutParameters command; SCSIType00InParameters response; SCSI_Sense_Data sense; UInt64 fSenseAddr = (intptr_t)&sense; bzero((void *)&command, sizeof(SCSIType00OutParameters)); bzero((void *)&response, sizeof(SCSIType00InParameters)); bool test = TEST_UNIT_READY(&command, &response, fSenseAddr); // test is true ret = this->UserSendCDB(command, &response); // ret is kIOReturnUnsupported （0xe00002c7） UInt64 blockSize; kern_return_t sizeRet = this->UserReportMediumBlockSize(&blockSize); // sizeRet is kIOReturnUnsupported （0xe00002c7） }; // Not called.

Hi, does anyone know if IOUSBDeviceInterface187 and IOUSBInterfaceInterface190 interfaces will be available on application level next years and there is no any deprecation plans ? Common Recommendations are to use USBDriverKit, but is there a real need to complicate USB communication in this way?

The link is as follows: app store: monitor+ I have checked the header file for USB in the IOKit framework of macOS, but it does not exist in iOS. Is it necessary to collaborate with Apple to implement functions similar to monitor+(PTP control camera)?

I searched for MFi's authentication information, but did not specify the need to add an MFI chip to the USB-C interface. Have you resolved the communication issue between the APP and external USBC?

I would like to detect audio input device state change in system logs. Right now i can detect the activation using: log show --info --predicate "process == 'coreaudiod' &amp;&amp; category == 'access'". But i'm unable to detect deactivation and have no idea which predicate to use.

I am trying to implement the Sanitize and Firmware Upgrade commands for an external card connected via the Thunderbolt Interface (4.0) Should we consider writing a Kext based off IOBlockStorageDriver or IOPCI interface.

I have an app that loads a DEXT (driver). This app includes a settings bundle that allows me to activate/deactivate the driver. When I issue the API call to activate the driver, iOS switches to the Settings app and displays the page for my DEXT loading application but the switch to enable the driver, which is part of my settings bundle, does not appear. I'm using this API call: OSSystemExtensionRequest.activationRequest(forExtensionWithIdentifier: "driver-id", queue: .main) Here are the contents of my settings bundle Root.plist: ` Here are the contents of my Root.strings file: "Group" = "Group"; "Name" = "Name"; "none given" = "none given"; "Enabled" = "Enabled";
