Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] Bluetooth: hci_sync: Skip MSFT/AOSP init when controller init failed
Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2026 23:10:05 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260714031005.230895-2-ameenaladdin@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260714031005.230895-1-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.
