            Bug ID: 214111
           Summary: rtl8761b usb bluetooth doesn't work following reboot
                    until unplug/replug
           Product: Drivers
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 5.13.10
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: Bluetooth
          Assignee: linux-bluetooth@vger.kernel.org
          Reporter: bryanhoop@gmail.com
        Regression: No

I'm not sure if this is the correct place to report this problem, but since the
firmware is so new I figure that it is probably a firmware bug.

I have a USB Bluetooth 5.0 dongle using the rtl8761b chipset that was recently
added to the kernel. It works fine until I reboot my computer, after which I am
unable to activate Bluetooth (from GNOME settings) until I unplug and replug
the dongle. Then everything starts working normally.

Logs:

After reboot (dongle not working):

--- Comment #1 from Marco (rodomar705@protonmail.com) ---
Can confirm the same issue personally, but for me it's even worse since this
firmware doesen't reconnect 9/10 a previously associated device. I've tried an
updated version for this adapter (2020/12, from the folder name contained in
it) specific for linux from XMPOW:

https://mpow.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/mpow_BH519A_driver+for+Linux.7z

And replaced _fw.bin and _config.bin, but nothing changed.

Then I've found this post on github:

https://gist.github.com/peteristhegreat/b48da772167f86f43decbd34edbd0849

After ordering by date on Microsoft Catalog for "realtek bluetooth", and a
dozen downloads, I've finally found a package that contained the firmware
version for this rtl8761b, this specific package:
https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/ScopedViewInline.aspx?updateid=b103336e-5da4-4b03-ad04-7224d591aadd,
download link:
http://download.windowsupdate.com/d/msdownload/update/driver/drvs/2021/05/ca0e770c-6a5d-4de0-b37a-f4b91cccd8c3_7778831d2b9d721cf94d5a8d8c0676ff1b96c874.cab

This has a date of 26/04/2021, and after extracting
rtl8761b_mp_chip_bt40_fw_asic_rom_patch_new.dll and renaming the same file to
rtl8761b_fw.bin and replacing the file contained in /lib/firmware/rtl_bt/ and
deleting the rtl8761b_config.bin file (AFAIK, Windows packages from Realtek
doesn't come with a config file, but besides an error in kernel the _bin is
sufficient) my adapter works wonderfully. No issues on reconnecting, no issues
after reboot, the adapter works correctly.

Instead of forcing users to randomly download Windows drivers from the web in
home to find a working and updated version for this device, can Realtek add the
firmware and kept in sync with the Windows version as it does do with the
others bluetooth devices supported in kernel? Any way to contact them?

Anyway, for the people who have this issue, try the version linked above.

Marco.

Forgot to upload logs, sorry. This are my previous logs, that are full of
random tx trasmission issues, like:

aug 25 09:54:51 Desktop kernel: Bluetooth: hci0: command 0x0c24 tx timeout
aug 25 09:54:54 Desktop kernel: Bluetooth: hci0: command 0x0c52 tx timeout
aug 25 19:45:17 Desktop kernel: Bluetooth: hci0: command 0x0c24 tx timeout
aug 25 20:10:59 Desktop kernel: Bluetooth: hci0: command 0x0c03 tx timeout

aug 24 21:26:58 Desktop kernel: Bluetooth: hci0: command 0x0405 tx timeout
aug 24 21:27:00 Desktop kernel: Bluetooth: hci0: command 0x0c03 tx timeout
aug 24 21:27:08 Desktop kernel: Bluetooth: hci0: HCI reset during shutdown
failed
aug 24 21:27:26 Desktop kernel: Bluetooth: hci0: command 0x0405 tx timeout
aug 24 22:18:46 Desktop kernel: Bluetooth: hci0: command 0x0c1a tx timeout

aug 24 14:08:01 Desktop kernel: Bluetooth: hci0: command 0x0c24 tx timeout
aug 24 14:08:03 Desktop kernel: Bluetooth: hci0: command 0x0c52 tx timeout

The HCI reset failed are triggered when I would try to disable and reenable the
adapter from KDE desktop, but to no avail before. Now it works perfectly fine
and I've no errors anywhere in the dmesg log, I'll also post it.

All the kernel logs are filtered with grep Bluetooth.

Hope to see this issue fixed soon,

Marco.

Thanks for these steps Marco. This gives some hope that a fixed firmware will
eventually be upstreamed on Linux.

I replaced the fw with the MS version in your link and everything is mostly
working now. The major problem I ran into with the updated firmware was audio
dropouts using the A2DP AAC codec, but I switched over to SBC-XQ (even higher
bandwidth, funnily enough) by editing
/usr/share/pipewire/media-session.d/bluez-monitor.conf and it's working
flawlessly now.

There is still hope, especially since there is already kernel support for the
chipset itself, just the firmware is problematic apparently, and it's even
harder since there is no real date timestamp on the firmware itself, so you
can't even know if the driver with a higher version number contains an actual
updated firmware or not; I hope it does, at least :P

According to a similar chip from the Realtek site
(https://www.realtek.com/en/products/communications-network-ics/item/rtl8763b)
mentioned in the github thread linked above, the supported codec are AAC and
SBC, so in theory it should work, but AFAIK bluetooth audio on Linux is a
little bit of a lottery, unfortunately.

Glad to see it works now :)

I still hope that Realtek will give us proper firmware support, though.

Recently tested this, and even with the new firmware on my side the workaround
still works here, even leaving the old config in place. Don't really know why
it's not working for you anymore.

Just realized right now, if you are using Arch, the firmware seems to be packed
in a xz archive on my system. It was still working here because for some reason
the .bin probably is getting loaded before the .bin.xz file from the
distribution.

By the way, I've seen that a Realtek engineer has updated the firmware file at
the end of last year, as of
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/commit/rtl_bt/rtl8761bu_fw.bin?id=45dc5f0b8e2f2d43312d22511cb26658b9ee2c80,
but the bug with that firmware still remains. I need to force disable and
enable the device.

I'll probably just get an adapter for a mPCIEx or M2 laptop to PCIEx and
install an already available Intel module that I got flotaing around at this
point, I doubt that this will ever be fixed on this hardware, unfortunately.

Marco.

With the latest changes and the default firmware it literally doesn't work.
Kernel loads a firmware, but the adapter is undetected from the OS. This will
never be fixed at this point. Kernel 6.5.5.
