I'd like to use bluez to perform a device inquiry with RSSI using a
bluetooth 1.2 device.  Currently, I'm using an Anycom USB-120
bluetooth adapter with the latest firmware installed.

I want to check the inquiry mode of the bluetooth device first and
then change it if needed.  Based on my reading of the bluez headers
and the bluetooth spec, this is what I came up with.

        // first read the current mode and see if we need to change it
        {
            struct hci_request req;
            char raw_rp[EVT_CMD_COMPLETE_SIZE + READ_INQUIRY_MODE_RP_SIZE];
            read_inquiry_mode_rp *rp;

            req.ogf = OGF_LINK_CTL;
            req.ocf = OCF_READ_INQUIRY_MODE;
            req.cparam = 0;
            req.clen = 0;
            req.rparam = &raw_rp;
            req.rlen = READ_INQUIRY_MODE_RP_SIZE;

            err = hci_send_req( sock, &req, 0 );
            if( err ) {
                if( errno == EPERM ) {
                    fprintf(stderr, "permission denied while reading inquiry "
                            "mode.  Are you sure you're superuser?\n");
                }
                return -1;
            }

            rp = (read_inquiry_mode_rp*)(raw_rp + EVT_CMD_COMPLETE_SIZE);
            if( rp->status != 0 ) {
                fprintf(stderr, "error 0x%x reading inquiry mode\n", 
                        rp->status);
                return -1;
            }
            change_inquiry_mode = (! rp->mode);

            fprintf(stderr, "done reading inquiry mode.  %s to set\n",
                    change_inquiry_mode?"Need":"Do not need");
        }

        // set the inquiry mode (use RSSI or not) if needed
        if( change_inquiry_mode )
        {
            write_inquiry_mode_cp wim_cp;
            struct hci_request req;
            char raw_rp[EVT_CMD_COMPLETE_SIZE + WRITE_INQUIRY_MODE_RP_SIZE];
            write_inquiry_mode_rp *rp;
            wim_cp.mode = do_inquiry_with_rssi;

            req.ogf = OGF_LINK_CTL;
            req.ocf = OCF_WRITE_INQUIRY_MODE;
            req.event = EVT_CMD_COMPLETE;
            req.cparam = &wim_cp;
            req.clen = WRITE_INQUIRY_MODE_CP_SIZE;
            req.rparam = &raw_rp;
            req.rlen = EVT_CMD_COMPLETE_SIZE + WRITE_INQUIRY_MODE_RP_SIZE;

            err = hci_send_req( sock, &req, 0 );
            if( err ) { 
                fprintf(stderr, "error while setting inquiry mode.  errno %d\n",
                        errno);
                perror("hci_send_cmd"); 
                return -1;
            }

            rp = (write_inquiry_mode_rp*)(raw_rp + EVT_CMD_COMPLETE_SIZE);
            if( rp->status != 0 ) {
                fprintf(stderr, "error 0x%x setting inquiry mode\n",
                        rp->status);
                return -1;
            }

            fprintf(stderr, "Done setting inquiry mode\n");
        }

My first question is - is this the correct way to do it?

When I run this with the anycom bluetooth device, the very first
hci_send_req never returns.  I expected the READ_INQUIRY_MODE command
to generate a CMD_COMPLETE event, but no event is ever generated (I
tested this separately).  Also, when hcidump is run concurrently with
this program, it doesn't pick anything up (no events are read by
hcidump)  The same happens if I try to set the inquiry mode directly
without reading it first (the WRITE_INQUIRY_MODE command never
returns)

Here's the information that bluez gets out of the bluetooth adapter
