I am a graduate student at Washington State University, and I am doing some research on Bluetooth. What I am currently trying to do is use your hci_sock implementation with a Belkin USB device, sort of in the same way as the BlueZ-HCITool package uses it. This works fine, to some extent, but I have a few questions. I recently installed the linux 2.6.3 kernel, and it seems as though the version of hci_sock.c there is 1.4. However, I have found version 1.5 on the internet. Which is the latest release, and what kernel patch of BlueZ should I use to get this? The problem occurs when I want to send some hci commands through the socket. The hci_sec_filter filters out a lot of them. What is the purpose of this? For example, it filters out the HCI_Reset command in 1.4, but not in 1.5, as far as I can read from the code. Also, I noticed that the OGF_STATUS commands seem to be filtered out in version 1.5, but not 1.4. This means that HCI_Read_Link_Quality, and HCI_Read_RSSI are not possible anymore. Why? This is of importance to me, since my research area is on adaptation and compensation in wireless networks. The reason for this email is really to figure out which is the latest stable release of BlueZ, and if it does not include what I need, I will go and remove the security filter from it.
