If so then it sounds like a batch of broken CSR firmware. If not, then the L2CAP test cases might better be extended to have a test case for this.

That might actually be useful as a workaround. An alternative option is that we delay the connection pending message for some time and give userspace the chance to respond with either read() or close(). That way we would send the correct answer. However that timeout can only be really short since we need to keep the L2CAP signaling working correctly. So it would only work for cases where the daemon has all information to make a decision. If it asks the user, then this is off limits. >>>> >>>> That said, Linux 3.17 is allowing us to use a whitelist for BR/EDR that might be useful to mitigate this behavior as well.
