# Permission System 2.0
## Background
This PR migrates the extension permission system to [the new `PermissionController`](https://github.com/MetaMask/snaps-skunkworks/tree/main/packages/controllers/src/permissions).
The original permission system, based on [`rpc-cap`](https://github.com/MetaMask/rpc-cap), introduced [`ZCAP-LD`](https://w3c-ccg.github.io/zcap-ld/)-like permissions to our JSON-RPC stack.
We used it to [implement](https://github.com/MetaMask/metamask-extension/pull/7004) what we called "LoginPerSite" in [version 7.7.0](https://github.com/MetaMask/metamask-extension/releases/tag/v7.7.0) of the extension, which enabled the user to choose which accounts, if any, should be exposed to each dapp.
While that was a worthwhile feature in and of itself, we wanted a permission _system_ in order to enable everything we are going to with Snaps.
Unfortunately, the original permission system was difficult to use, and necessitated the creation of the original `PermissionsController` (note the "s"), which was more or less a wrapper for `rpc-cap`.
With this PR, we shake off the yoke of the original permission system, in favor of the modular, self-contained, ergonomic, and more mature permission system 2.0.
Note that [the `PermissionController` readme](https://github.com/MetaMask/snaps-skunkworks/tree/main/packages/controllers/src/permissions/README.md) explains how the new permission system works.
The `PermissionController` and `SubjectMetadataController` are currently shipped via `@metamask/snap-controllers`. This is a temporary state of affairs, and we'll move them to `@metamask/controllers` once they've landed in prod.
## Changes in Detail
First, the changes in this PR are not as big as they seem. Roughly half of the additions in this PR are fixtures in the test for the new migration (number 68), and a significant portion of the remaining ~2500 lines are due to find-and-replace changes in other test fixtures and UI files.
- The extension `PermissionsController` has been deleted, and completely replaced with the new `PermissionController` from [`@metamask/snap-controllers`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@metamask/snap-controllers).
- The original `PermissionsController` "domain metadata" functionality is now managed by the new `SubjectMetadataController`, also from [`@metamask/snap-controllers`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@metamask/snap-controllers).
- The permission activity and history log controller has been renamed `PermissionLogController` and has its own top-level state key, but is otherwise functionally equivalent to the existing implementation.
- Migration number 68 has been added to account for the new state changes.
- The tests in `app/scripts/controllers/permissions` have been migrated from `mocha` to `jest`.
Reviewers should focus their attention on the following files:
- `app/scripts/`
- `metamask-controller.js`
- This is where most of the integration work for the new `PermissionController` occurs.
Some functions that were internal to the original controller were moved here.
- `controllers/permissions/`
- `selectors.js`
- These selectors are for `ControllerMessenger` selector subscriptions. The actual subscriptions occur in `metamask-controller.js`. See the `ControllerMessenger` implementation for details.
- `specifications.js`
- The caveat and permission specifications are required by the new `PermissionController`, and are used to specify the `eth_accounts` permission and its JSON-RPC method implementation.
See the `PermissionController` readme for details.
- `migrations/068.js`
- The new state should be cross-referenced with the controllers that manage it.
The accompanying tests should also be thoroughly reviewed.
Some files may appear new but have just moved and/or been renamed:
- `app/scripts/lib/rpc-method-middleware/handlers/request-accounts.js`
- This was previously implemented in `controllers/permissions/permissionsMethodMiddleware.js`.
- `test/mocks/permissions.js`
- A truncated version of `test/mocks/permission-controller.js`.

These background API methods were not used anywhere in the UI. One of
them was called in `actions.js` by a function that itself was never
called, so it have been removed. Additionally, one unused `actions.js`
function was found and removed as well.
`setAdvancedGasFee` is the only unused background method that remains.
It was recently added and will be used in the near future.

We're bumping from `^6` to `^8`. All imports are now named, and they have been updated. This is a breaking change, in that support for `eth_signTransaction` is added in `^8.0.0`. We do not support this method in our UI, so our middleware stack has been instrumented to reject.
In addition, there are some non-breaking behavioral changes in this version that reviewers should be aware of, see the [7.0.0 release](https://github.com/MetaMask/eth-json-rpc-middleware/releases).

* GridPlus: Adds support for GridPlus Lattice1 hardware wallet
* Fixes issue with switching hardware HD path
The main `Select HD Path` piece of the account selection component was not
properly hooked up to the state manager (`onPathChange`) and the extra
`Popover` component was being used instead.
I'm not sure what the origin of this is, but I don't see why the Popover
is needed at all. I have remove it and hooked `onPathChange` directly into
the HD path selector dropdown.
This was an issue that nearly every Lattice user who had come from Ledger
has contacted us about.
* GridPlus: Addresses QA issues
* Adds Lattice tutorial + image
* Cleans up connectivity issues (see: https://github.com/GridPlus/eth-lattice-keyring/pull/16)
* GridPlus: Adds Firefox support
To connect to the Lattice you need to open a new tab/window and get
login data from it. We were not able to do this for Firefox because
we relied on the `window` API. This is now fixed.
See corresponding changes:
* `eth-lattice-keyring`: https://github.com/GridPlus/eth-lattice-keyring/pull/17
* Lattice connector: https://github.com/GridPlus/wallet-web/pull/152
* GridPlus: Adds missing error path for Firefox

Adds the latest version of `@metamask/controllers`, and updates our usage of the `ApprovalController`, which has been migrated to `BaseControllerV2`. Of [the new `controllers` release](https://github.com/MetaMask/controllers/releases/tag/v15.0.0), only the `ApprovalController` migration should be breaking.
This is the first time we use events on the `ControllerMessenger` to update the badge, so I turned the messenger into a property on the main `MetaMaskController` in order to subscribe to events on it in `background.js`. I confirmed that the badge does indeed update during local QA.
As it turns out, [MetaMask/controllers#571](https://github.com/MetaMask/controllers/pull/571) was breaking for a single unit test case, which is now handled during setup and teardown for the related test suite (`metamask-controller.test.js`).
* add command to debug unit tests
* remove extra zero balance account potentially created from seeking ahead
* Add PR 12074 to CHANGELOG
* Revert "Add PR 12074 to CHANGELOG"
This reverts commit 9f6f7eec1cac163c0ce1c711b1c205322aa5b2af.
* Remove test debug command
* EIP-1559 - Provide support for Ledger
* Update ui/selectors/selectors.js
