On *some* occasions it might work, but more often than not the hci_bcm driver just times out: .... [ 5.046126] Bluetooth: HIDP socket layer initialized ... [ 7.809425] Bluetooth: hci0: command 0x0c03 tx timeout [ 15.969286] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM: Reset failed (-110) After some guessing, trying, and bisecting I pinned the problem down to: commit dc56ecb81a0aa46a7e127e916df5c8fdb8364f0b Author: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org> Date: Fri Jan 10 18:25:13 2020 -0800 serial: 8250: Support disabling mdelay-filled probes of 16550A variants This seemingly innocent commit shaved off some milliseconds during the 8250 probe, which apparently lets the Bluetooth device trip. An obvious easy hack-fix is to just define CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_16550A_VARIANTS, which brings the delays back and seems to avoid the problem for me. Another hack which seems to mitigate the problem is to avoid switching the baudrate to something faster than 115200. I observed this on a BananaPi-M64 (Allwinner A64 SoC with AP6212 WiFi/BT chip), but others reported the same issue on a NanoPi Air (Allwinner H3 with 6212), but also other SoCs and devices (at least one AP6210). Obviously those workarounds are not real solutions, and I was wondering if anybody has an idea how to properly fix this? What puzzles me is that the delay is happening during the *UART* probe, so before we even start dealing with the Bluetooth device. I see that hci_bcm.c has some history with adding delays, also with RTS/CTS lines, so does anyone have an idea what's going on here, exactly, and how to properly fix this problem? Many thanks, Andre
