Hi,

When does /var/lib/bluetooth/$BDADDR/names get updated?
Because hcitool inq does not tell the names while hcitool scan does not
tell class of the devices.

every time a HCI remote name complete event is received. Or in case of
Bluetooth 2.1 when an Extended Inquiry Result with name information is
recieved.

Ah ok.

F.y.i.: I was trying to monitor 24/7 if a bluetooth device with a specific
mac-address and device-name was in reach of the system with that bluetooth-
dongle. Worked like a charm but unfortunately these usb-dongles die
(brakedown) in a couple of days.
