#pragma once // A QR encoder, for getting a crash report off a machine whose network stack is // dead. // // A panic report is worth nothing if it cannot leave the machine, and at panic // time there is no network, no filesystem write that can be trusted, and often // no second machine on the desk. A phone camera is a working out-of-band // channel that needs no drivers on our side at all. See docs/architecture/graphics.md. // // Deliberately small, in three ways: // // - Byte mode only. The report is arbitrary bytes; alphanumeric mode would // pack tighter but only for a restricted character set. // - Error correction level L only. The screen is a clean, evenly lit, // high-contrast source -- the failure mode QR's stronger levels protect // against (dirt, print damage, curved packaging) does not apply. // - Versions 1 to 6 only. Version 7 is where QR starts requiring an extra // 18-bit version-information block in two more places on the symbol, and // version 10 is where the character count field grows and the alignment // pattern grid becomes 2-dimensional. Stopping at 6 avoids both, and // 134 bytes is a large crash report. // // If a payload ever needs more than 134 bytes, the honest fix is to shorten the // report -- not to reach for version 10 and its two extra tables. #define QR_MAX_VERSION 6 #define QR_MAX_SIZE (17 + 4 * QR_MAX_VERSION) // 41 modules per side #define QR_MAX_BYTES 134 struct qr { int size; // modules per side; 0 if unencoded unsigned char mod[QR_MAX_SIZE][QR_MAX_SIZE]; // 1 = dark unsigned char fn[QR_MAX_SIZE][QR_MAX_SIZE]; // 1 = function pattern }; // Encode len bytes into q. Picks the smallest version that fits. // Returns 0, or -1 if len > QR_MAX_BYTES. int qr_encode(struct qr *q, const unsigned char *data, int len); // Largest payload, in bytes, for a given version (1..QR_MAX_VERSION). int qr_capacity(int version);
