2008-11-30Bluetooth: Send HCI Reset command by default on device initializationMarcel Holtmann
The Bluetooth subsystem was not using the HCI Reset command when doing device initialization. The Bluetooth 1.0b specification was ambiguous on how the device firmware was suppose to handle it. Almost every device was triggering a transport reset at the same time. In case of USB this ended up in disconnects from the bus. All modern Bluetooth dongles handle this perfectly fine and a lot of them actually require that HCI Reset is sent. If not then they are either stuck in their HID Proxy mode or their internal structures for inquiry and paging are not correctly setup. To handle old and new devices smoothly the Bluetooth subsystem contains a quirk to force the HCI Reset on initialization. However maintaining such a quirk becomes more and more complicated. This patch turns the logic around and lets the old devices disable the HCI Reset command. The only device where the HCI_QUIRK_NO_RESET is still needed are the original Digianswer devices and dongles with an early CSR firmware. CSR reported that they fixed this for version 12 firmware. The last official release of version 11 firmware is build ID 115. The first version 12 candidate was build ID 117. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Export details about authentication requirementsMarcel Holtmann
With the Simple Pairing support, the authentication requirements are an explicit setting during the bonding process. Track and enforce the requirements and allow higher layers like L2CAP and RFCOMM to increase them if needed. This patch introduces a new IOCTL that allows to query the current authentication requirements. It is also possible to detect Simple Pairing support in the kernel this way.

2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Use ACL config stage to retrieve remote featuresMarcel Holtmann
The Bluetooth technology introduces new features on a regular basis and for some of them it is important that the hardware on both sides support them. For features like Simple Pairing it is important that the host stacks on both sides have switched this feature on. To make valid decisions, a config stage during ACL link establishment has been introduced that retrieves remote features and if needed also the remote extended features (known as remote host features) before signalling this link as connected. This change introduces full reference counting of incoming and outgoing ACL links and the Bluetooth core will disconnect both if no owner of it is present. To better handle interoperability during the pairing phase the disconnect timeout for incoming connections has been increased to 10 seconds. This is five times more than for outgoing connections.

2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Track status of remote Simple Pairing modeMarcel Holtmann
The Simple Pairing process can only be used if both sides have the support enabled in the host stack. The current Bluetooth specification has three ways to detect this support. If an Extended Inquiry Result has been sent during inquiry then it is safe to assume that Simple Pairing is enabled. It is not allowed to enable Extended Inquiry without Simple Pairing. During the remote name request phase a notification with the remote host supported features will be sent to indicate Simple Pairing support. Also the second page of the remote extended features can indicate support for Simple Pairing. For all three cases the value of remote Simple Pairing mode is stored in the inquiry cache for later use.

2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Track status of Simple Pairing modeMarcel Holtmann
The Simple Pairing feature is optional and needs to be enabled by the host stack first. The Linux kernel relies on the Bluetooth daemon to either enable or disable it, but at any time it needs to know the current state of the Simple Pairing mode. So track any changes made by external entities and store the current mode in the HCI device structure. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Disable disconnect timer during Simple PairingMarcel Holtmann
During the Simple Pairing process the HCI disconnect timer must be disabled. The way to do this is by holding a reference count of the HCI connection. The Simple Pairing process on both sides starts with an IO Capabilities Request and ends with Simple Pairing Complete. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Make use of the default link policy settingsMarcel Holtmann
The Bluetooth specification supports the default link policy settings on a per host controller basis. For every new connection the link manager would then use these settings. It is better to use this instead of bothering the controller on every connection setup to overwrite the default settings. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Track connection packet type changesMarcel Holtmann
The connection packet type can be changed after the connection has been established and thus needs to be properly tracked to ensure that the host stack has always correct and valid information about it. On incoming connections the Bluetooth core switches the supported packet types to the configured list for this controller. However the usefulness of this feature has been questioned a lot. The general consent is that every Bluetooth host stack should enable as many packet types as the hardware actually supports and leave the decision to the link manager software running on the Bluetooth chip. When running on Bluetooth 2.0 or later hardware, don't change the packet type for incoming connections anymore. This hardware likely supports Enhanced Data Rate and thus leave it completely up to the link manager to pick the best packet type. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2007-10-22[Bluetooth] Switch from OGF+OCF to using only opcodesMarcel Holtmann
The Bluetooth HCI commands are divided into logical OGF groups for easier identification of their purposes. While this still makes sense for the written specification, its makes the code only more complex and harder to read. So instead of using separate OGF and OCF values to identify the commands, use a common 16-bit opcode that combines both values. As a side effect this also reduces the complexity of OGF and OCF calculations during command header parsing. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2007-07-11[Bluetooth] Add basics to better support and handle eSCO linksMarcel Holtmann
To better support and handle eSCO links in the future a bunch of constants needs to be added and some basic routines need to be updated. This is the initial step. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

2006-09-28[Bluetooth] Support create connection cancel commandMarcel Holtmann
In case of non-blocking connects it is possible that the last user of an ACL link quits before the connection has been fully established. This will lead to a race condition where the internal state of a connection is closed, but the actual link has been established and is active. In case of Bluetooth 1.2 and later devices it is possible to call create connection cancel to abort the connect. For older devices the disconnect timer will be used to trigger the needed disconnect.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
