Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Bluetooth: hci_sync: Skip MSFT/AOSP init when controller init failed
Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2026 17:55:37 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260713215537.81222-2-ameenaladdin@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260713215537.81222-1-ameenaladdin@gmail.com>
hci_dev_init_sync() calls msft_do_open() and aosp_do_open()
unconditionally, even when setup or the HCI init sequence has already
failed. Both send vendor commands with __hci_cmd_sync(), so on a dead
or uninitialized controller each of them blocks the power-on sequence
for a full HCI_CMD_TIMEOUT and logs a spurious error.
This is easy to trigger with an Intel USB controller that needs a
firmware upgrade: btintel resets the controller to bootloader mode,
the device drops off the bus and hdev->setup() fails with -EINVAL,
after which msft_do_open() still spends two more seconds waiting for
a response that cannot arrive:
usb 1-6: USB disconnect, device number 4
Bluetooth: hci0: FW download error recovery failed (-19)
Bluetooth: hci0: Failed to read MSFT supported features (-110)
usb 1-6: new full-speed USB device number 5 using xhci_hcd
Only initialize the MSFT and AOSP extensions when the controller
initialized successfully.
