What I was saying is that you shouldn't be using "SSO" as a name, it's already something that exists, and that is completely different from what you're describing below: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_sign-on > 1.

I don't understand at which point the user-space driver would be able to tell the power button's IC to capture the image, or where that image would end up being stored. Would the driver tell that to the power button's IC/fingerprint reader before the machine gets turned off? > In your opinion, is it possible to implement SSO in libfprint? > Thank you very much for your time and suggestion! There are multiple steps to that, and the first one would be to extend fp_driver internally to allow setting that "remember fingerprint on next boot", as well as providing a way to extract the "remembered" fingerprint. After that, integration work into the OS can start. I think we would be taking cues from the smartcard integration done in gnome-settings- daemon[1] and integrate it in fprintd. Access to hardware and specs would be much appreciated if you want more help doing this integration. It's pretty difficult designing for a use case in a vacuum. I'd recommend looking into this once the work has been done in libfprint to support the hardware features.
