[Bluez-users] Enabling authentication and encryption in C

["Ståle Andreas Kleppe" <stale.kleppe@student.uib.no>]

Hi,

I'm working on my master thesis about Bluetooth security, and are going =

to test the security and possibly implement some improvements. I program =

in C, and am currently trying to enable authentication and encryption =

through some function calls in hci_lib.h, namly hci_authenticate_link =

and hci_encrypt_link respectively. Below is a part of my code.

int main(void) {
    struct hci_conn_info_req *cr;
    struct sockaddr_rc resciever =3D { 0 };
    struct sockaddr_rc local =3D { 0 };
    uint16_t handle;
    int s, status, dd;

    char destination[17] =3D "00:09:DD:60:02:45";

    resciever.rc_family =3D AF_BLUETOOTH;
    resciever.rc_channel =3D (uint8_t) 1;
    str2ba( destination, &resciever.rc_bdaddr );

    local.rc_family =3D AF_BLUETOOTH;
    local.rc_channel =3D (uint8_t) 1;
    //lokal_addr.rc_bdaddr =3D *BDADDR_ANY;
    str2ba("00:14:A4:D4:0F:A1", &local.rc_bdaddr);
   =

    dd =3D hci_open_dev(hci_get_route(&local.rc_bdaddr));
    cr =3D (struct hci_conn_info_req*) malloc(sizeof(struct =

hci_conn_info_req));
    ioctl(dd, HCIGETCONNINFO, (unsigned long) cr);
    handle =3D cr->conn_info->handle;

    status =3D hci_authenticate_link(dd, handle, 0);
    printf("status: %d\n", status);
    status =3D hci_encrypt_link(dd, handle, (uint8_t)1, 0);
    printf("status: %d\n", status);
    ....
    .... }

Both calls always return -1, and things obviously aren't going as =

expected. I've managed to digg down through several function calls:
hci_authenticate_link -> hci_send_req -> hci_send_cmd -> writev.
writev returns -1 as well and sets the error code variable 'errno' to 77 =

(EBADFD, defined in asm/errno.h and means 'File descriptor in bad state').
I'm not sure what this means.
Thoughts?
Any help will be appreciated!
