Joining files picked through the system picker failed outright whenever
the strategy was stream copy -- the matched-files case the UI advertises
as "joined without re-encoding, no quality loss".
[ffkitsaf @ ...] Protocol 'ffkitsaf' not on whitelist 'file,crypto,data'!
Error opening input file .../joined_from_content.concat_list.txt
JoinScreen picks with OpenMultipleDocuments, so real inputs are always
content://. ConcatEngine maps each through getSafParameterForRead and
FFmpegConcatCommand writes the resulting ffkitsaf: paths into the concat
list file. The demuxer applies its own protocol whitelist, defaulting to
file,crypto,data, and -safe 0 does not touch it: that permits absolute
paths, this permits the scheme they carry. Two separate gates, and only
one was open.
Nothing caught it because the two halves of the bug never met. Only
STREAM_COPY feeds the demuxer a list file -- REENCODE passes each input
with its own -i, where the whitelist does not apply -- so joining over SAF
worked for mismatched clips. And every join test passed Uri.fromFile,
which takes ConcatEngine's uri.path arm instead of the bridge, so
matchingClipsAreJoinedByStreamCopy exercised stream copy with a file:
path and passed. The one broken combination was the one no test produced
and the only one a user can reach.
That is #225's gap: FFmpegKitConfig.getSafParameterForRead is on every
real conversion and join, and was on no passing test -- only on
UnopenableUriTest's failure side, which proves the error message rather
than the bridge. ContentUriInputTest now drives both the convert and join
paths from a real content:// URI.
It uses a plain ContentProvider, because the documents provider cannot be
reached. Measured three ways: a DOCUMENTS_PROVIDER without MANAGE_DOCUMENTS
is refused at install, instrumentation runs in the target app's process so
Instrumentation.getContext() still carries the app's uid and is denied, and
adoptShellPermissionIdentity(MANAGE_DOCUMENTS) is denied identically -- the
denial naming ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT as the only way in. The bridge needs no
documents provider: it opens a descriptor through the resolver, so any
readable content:// URI exercises it, and an ordinary provider may be
exported unprotected. The whole class stays headless. Recorded on #226,
which that also settles: its cheap half does not exist.
Verified on a local API 34 emulator: 66 tests, 0 failures, 3 skipped; and
removing the -protocol_whitelist pair reproduces the production failure
verbatim in the join test and nothing else. FFmpegConcatCommandTest pins
the flag on the JVM.
