The problem I'm talking about is commit d5bb334a8e17 ("Bluetooth: Align minimum encryption key size for LE and BR/EDR connections"): https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=d5bb334a8e171b262e48f378bd2096c0ea458265 basically completely breaking all somewhat older (and some current cheap no-name) bluetooth devices: A revert of this was first proposed on May 22nd: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/CA+E=qVfopSA90vG2Kkh+XzdYdNn=M-hJN_AptW=R+B5v3HB9eA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/T/ We are 18 days further now and this problem still exists, including in the 5.0.15+ and 5.1.x stable kernels. A solution has been suggested: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-bluetooth/20190522070540.48895-1-marcel@xxxxxxxxxxxx/T/#u and at least the Fedora 5.1.4+ kernels now carry this as a temporary fix, but as of today I do not see a fix nor a revert in Torvald's tree yet and neither does there seem to be any fix in the 5.0.x and 5.1.x stable series. In the mean time we are getting a lot of bug reports about this: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=203643 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1711468 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1713871 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1713980 And some reporters: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1713871#c4 Are indicating that the Fedora kernels with the workaround included still do not work...Given that things are still broken for some users, I suggest that for Fedora we replace the workaround with a straight forward revert of d5bb334a8e17 for now. Also the rawhide kernels are missing the workaround, so those are currently broken regardless.
Note since Torvald's mastter branch still does not have a fix for this, Greg has gone with a straight forward revert for all the stable series including 5.1.x . This means that the rawhide kernels are currently still broken, I suggest that we pick-up Greg's revert and add that as a downstream patch to the rawhide kernels for now. Greg's patch has not been pushed to the linux-stable repo yet, so I will forward it to kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
