remote name request missing for incoming connections in newer Bluez 4.93

remote name request missing for incoming connections in newer Bluez 4.93

[VISHWANATH KM]

Hi,

In newer versions of Bluez version 4.93, after the ACL established,
remote name request is not issued , due to which device name is not
present in case of incoming connections. Please confirm if anybody
observed this issue. thanks

Bluez 4.93
src/event.c  btd_event_conn_complete ( Does not issue remote name req )

Bluez 4.69
src/security.c conn_complete  (issues remote name req )

Regards
Vishwanath

Interesting that someone finally noticed :)

This has been removed since the kernel is now days doing the automated
name request. The feature is present from 2.6.37 onwards. Since there's
no clean & simple way of detecting whether a recent enough kernel is
present and some controllers will get confused if bombarded with too
many requests this was simply removed from user space.

Seems like not too many people have missed this feature since the change
was done already end of last year. Typically BlueZ is the initiator of
the first connection to a device and so you get the name through the
device discovery process anyway.

A2DP streaming audio on BT infineon PBA31308

[h.patil]

Hi
    Anyone tried audio streaming through A2DP on BT chip Infineon PBA31308.
    I am able to establish the A2dp connection.
    Audio streaming after 6 seconds causing A2DP disconnection on Infineon PBA31308.
Any idea? I am using latest bluez n pulse audio on ARM.

Thanks
Patil
