Subject: Kernal/User space change for LE Random Addresses
Date: Tue, 08 Feb 2011 15:58:38 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D51D8AE.9020005@codeaurora.org> (raw)
One other change that is needed, which I don't really know how to attack
is remote devices with Random Addresses. There is at least one team
here at UPF with a device with a Random Address which cannot be
connected to with either Vinicius' or the bluetooth-next kernal tips,
because the connection HCI command only specifies Public Addresses as
the remote address type.
I am not at all knowledgable about sockets, but I assume that a new
Socket option needs to be defined that specifies address type.
I can get around this inelegantly by building a secondary kernel which
hard-codes the address type to Random, and then dual booting into that
kernel for random address only remote devices.
I would love if someone who knows the bluez socket option handling (both
kernel and user space) could fix this, otherwise I will try to muddle
along on my own.
