Subject: [PATCH BlueZ] mgmt-api: Add new action to Add Device
Date: Tue,  2 Nov 2021 15:10:46 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211102221046.23293-1-luiz.dentz@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Luiz Augusto von Dentz <luiz.von.dentz@intel.com>

This adds a new action, Action 3, to Add Device command so it is
possible to set the Device Privacy Mode which allows to connect when the
remote device uses either identity or random address.

Since Network Privacy Mode is assumed to be the default Action 2 has
been updates to state that would be used when the device is using
privacy.
