Dear Luiz,


It turns out there was a regression in Linux 5.16-rc1.

Turns out, that is indeed possible [2], but turned out to be cumbersome, 
as I hit the regression [3], which seems to have been fixed by commit 
95655456e7ce (Bluetooth: btintel: Fix broken LED quirk for legacy ROM 
devices) merged in the current Linux 5.17 cycle this week.

As a work around, I applied a hunk from Takashi’s patch.

-       { USB_DEVICE(0x8087, 0x0a2a), .driver_info = BTUSB_INTEL_COMBINED },
+       { USB_DEVICE(0x8087, 0x0a2a), .driver_info = BTUSB_INTEL_COMBINED |
+ 
BTUSB_INTEL_BROKEN_INITIAL_NCMD },

My problem with the Nokia N9 is still present in Linus’ master branch.

Then I built a minimal Linux kernel for QEMU, and ran:

     qemu-system-x86_64 -cpu host -m 2G -enable-kvm \
       -usb -device usb-host,vendorid=0x8087,productid=0x0a2a \
       -drive file=/dev/shm/debian-64.img,format=raw,if=virtio \
       -net nic -net user,hostfwd=tcp::22223-:22 \
       -kernel /dev/shm/bzImage -append "root=/dev/vda1 rw quiet"

In the Debian sid/unstable VM, I used

     ssh root@localhost -p 22223

I once had to pair the VM with the Nokia N9 in bluetoothctl, and then 
started `/usr/libexec/bluetooth/obexd`, and ran `obexctl`, and connected 
first with `connect`, and then ran `send /lib/systemd/systemd` to 
transfer the file. In the problematic cases it stopped/hung after the 
first progress message.

     # obexctl

Some manual bisection of Linux releases, verified, that the regression 
was introduced in Linux 5.16-rc1. (Lucky me, I started using Bluetooth 
with the Nokia with Linux 5.16-rc1.) Then I verified it was introduced 
by the Bluetooth pull request for Linux 5.16. Then I picked commit 
81be03e026dc0c16dc1c64e088b2a53b73caa895 due to the commit message, and 
bisected from there, and it turns out, that this commit is actually 
introducing the regression.

         Bluetooth: RFCOMM: Replace use of memcpy_from_msg with 
bt_skb_sendmmsg

         This makes use of bt_skb_sendmmsg instead using memcpy_from_msg 
which
         is not considered safe to be used when lock_sock is held.

         Also make rfcomm_dlc_send handle skb with fragments and queue 
them all
         atomically.

Unfortunately, the patch does not cleanly revert, so users have to wait 
until an expert can take a look, and come up with a fix.


Kind regards,
