[Bluez-devel] Digianswer USB driver

[Bluez-devel] Digianswer USB driver

[Jan J. Jessen]

Hi
During my master thesis, I wrote a custom Linux USB Bluetooth driver to
comply with my specific needs. I did this because I couldn't get bluez
working. The hardware that was available to me, was some development
boards from Digianswer a subsidiary of Motorola. They couldn't provide
much help, since their official driver is for Microsoft products, and they
have outsourced the development of their driver to another company in
Denmark.

So I just wrote my own driver according to the Bluetooth USB specification
and the spec for USB 1.1, and basically found that my driver didn't
work:-(

A sniff program on a Windows computer then revealed that Digianswer for
some strange reason uses a different value for their control requests,
than what is expected. I changed my #define to the correct value, and my
driver worked perfectly.

Later I tried to change the value, just to see if I could get bluez
working, and I succeeded:-)

in hci_usb.h
change
#define HCI_CTRL_REQ         0x20
to
#define HCI_CTRL_REQ         0x40

And everything works just fine. Though it was a development board that I
used, this change can possibly make bluez work with other Digianswer USB
hardware stated as "not working" with Bluez

Maybe there could be a note on the webpage to potential users of
Digianswer hardware, that this small hack could work?

thanks for this information. I always tried to get my hands on the
Digianswer Bluetooth devices, but I never got one. Do you have a spare
one for me?

Changing the bRequestType is such an ugly hack, but on the other side it
is a very simple change to get these devices supported by hci_usb. I
will write a patch for supporting Digianswer devices and H:2 Bluetooth
devices at the same time, but I need some more information about the
your device. Please send me the output of "cat /proc/bus/usb/devices"
and "hciconfig -a".

Regards

Marcel

Unfortunately no. Aalborg University has a history of cooperation with
Digianswer, and they have partly sponsered the equipment for use in
student projects. So I don't own the devices.

At the moment my Linux dist is having a vacation! Can you do with vendor
and product IDs? From my own driver:

/* Digianswer specific values */
#define USB_DIGI_VENDOR_ID    0x08fd
#define USB_DIGI_PRODUCT_ID   0x1
#define BLUETOOTH_REQ_TYPE    0x40

I hope this will do.

attached is a patch which modifies the hci_usb.o driver to deal with
normal H:2 and the Digianswer devices. Please test it and send me a
report with "hciconfig -a" and "cat /proc/bus/usb/devices".

Hi Marcel,
I've now tried the patch and compiled a new kernel with hci_usb as a
module.
When I load it into the kernel I get the following:

# insmod /lib/modules/2.4.22/kernel/drivers/bluetooth/hci_usb.o
/lib/modules/2.4.22/kernel/drivers/bluetooth/hci_usb.o: unresolved symbol
hci_register_dev_Rsmp_17de4405
/lib/modules/2.4.22/kernel/drivers/bluetooth/hci_usb.o: unresolved symbol
hci_unregister_dev_Rsmp_380d73d1
/lib/modules/2.4.22/kernel/drivers/bluetooth/hci_usb.o: unresolved symbol
hci_recv_frame_Rsmp_75250b00

I've used a "fresh" 2.4.22 kernel

regards
Jan Jakob

try it again, because this is a problem with MODVERSION. Maybe the
running kernel or bluez.o module is compiled without and the hci_usb.o
driver with it.

Hi Marcel,
I've compiled a kernel with MODVERSION and now hci_usb loads without
trouble. I've tried to do hciconfig hci0 up but this gives:
Can't init device hci0. Connection timed out(110)

Works perfect:-) At first hciconfig hci0 up gave an error saying that it
couldn't set scan mode. Working with these cards for more than a year, I
know that they sometimes don't reply with the event they are supposed to,
so I just tried again, and everything is OK Bluetooth:-)

I hope this is all the information that you need. It shure will easy my
explanations to students here at the university that wants to use these
devices, that they can just use bluez from now on.

Since Digianswer is a subsidiary of Motorola one could imagine that if
Motorola once made a Bluetooth USB dongle, Bluez would work perfectly
with it - just a thouhgt.

Hi Jan,

these are good news. Your initial problem setting scan mode can only be
solved with a USB sniffer, I think.

Do you have any H:2 USB Bluetooth devices? If yes, please attach them
along with a Digianswer one to the same host and use them both. I want
to make sure that a Digianswer device works in conjunction with a H:2
device.

Have you ever updated the firmware of the Digianswer device? I though
that Digianswer already had a USB device at the time they are not a
subsidiary of Motorola. So the manufacturer should be 12.

Please do my test above and send me "hciconfig -a" of a machine with two
different dongles. If this works I apply this patch to mainline and your
students can start working with BlueZ very easy ;)

Do you have any contact to Motorola, so I can get one of these devices?

Marcel

Well I've tried it a few times now, and it is a rare event.

I've just tried it with a 3com device, and it works:-)

I have no idea. I've never updated the firmware on their devices.
Digianswer has - at least in the past - been very restrictive about
getting access to the firmware and related issues. A few years ago, former
students at Aalborg University wrote a linux driver for their first pcmcia
cards, but a lot of NDA stuff has prevented the publishing of this driver.
But that's a whole different story.
