[PATCH BlueZ] client: Fix default controller in interactive mode

[PATCH BlueZ] client: Fix default controller in interactive mode

[ERAMOTO Masaya]

Since 4e111f3448a126786f3620be1b5ce969456edc65, when a attached adapter
is tried to operate in the interactive mode and another adapter is 
attached newly, the default controller is changed to the another adapter.

In the interactive mode, because the default controller should change by
select command, this patch fixes to not change the default controller
when another adapter is attached.

Hi, ERAMOTO

With this change, when second adapter is enumerated.
default_ctrl->ad_proxy would be assigned with advertising proxy from
second adapter, but default_ctrl->proxy is still first adapter proxy.

Yes, when there are two adapters, the newest adapter is chosen as
default one.  It is not good when you have adapter A in test, and
later attach another adapter B. But if you make all adapters ready
before your test is running, then you can use "select" to choose the
default adapter.

Thanks

Hi Yunhan,

Thanks for your reply.

I understood your commit 4e111f3448.

I worry about the case that bluetootctl is not run on test phase
but on operation phase (end-users may attach adapters freely). In
addition, now bluetoothctl seems to be inconsistent when adapters
without advertising (e.g. with only BR/EDR) are used.

Do you have any ideas how to fix this behavior? Or do not we need
to worry about above?

Sounds like a bug if we cannot detect where the ad proxy should be added.

This is bogus since we are not even printing anything when the default
changes. The user should have full control over what is the selected
adapter, the only exception is when the current default adapter is
removed it should automatically select a new default if there is at
least one available.

We might as well print the new add something to print_adapter to tell
if it is the default, also like I mentioned above if the default
adapter is removed we should select a new default and hint it to the
user.
