(man SmartCardServices)
OS X has a builtin list of supported USB CCID class-compliant smart card readers. For other readers, install the reader driver in /usr/libexec/SmartCardServices/drivers. Each driver is a bundle.
...
Note |
---|
with macOS Mojave (10.14.6) it is still possible to install your own version of libccid or other PC/SC IFD Handler bundles to /usr/local/libexec/SmartCardServices/drivers. |
/etc/reader.conf is read similar to standard pcscd way of doing things but instead of pointing to a library directly, it points to a bundle directry containg the same files as for usb readers, the difference is that Info.plist does not contain any product or vendor ids or friendly names.
Some projects declare a fake usb device in their Info.plist and expect the users to attach that device (maybe a usb memory stick) if they want to use the card reader, although the device has nothing to do with the card reader.

It is possible to turn on logging for smart cards. Logging is turned on by setting global preference:

Note |

Note that logging setting is one-shot; it must be turned on by the command above to start logging again with a new reader. This is to avoid security risk that logging is turned on indefinitely. So, set this value to yes, plug in your AirID via USB and you should see APDU tracing. After the AirID is unplugged from USB, APDU tracing is disabled again. |
Logging behavior is normally governed by the system. However, while debugging in macOS, you can enable different logging levels for a subsystem using the log
command-line tool’s config
argument while logged in as root.
