The conn_hash.acl_num check just has to go away. We always start the bulk URBs anyway since otherwise a lot of devices break. We had to figure this out the hard way. Some device manufactures have endpoints that rely on each other and do their flow control based on submitted URBs. So no need to do another HCI_RAW test here. > urb = usb_alloc_urb(0, GFP_ATOMIC); > @@ -680,7 +682,9 @@ > break; > > case HCI_SCODATA_PKT: > - if (!data->isoc_tx_ep || hdev->conn_hash.sco_num < 1) > + if (!data->isoc_tx_ep || > + (!test_bit(HCI_RAW, &hdev->flags) && > + hdev->conn_hash.sco_num < 1)) > return -ENODEV; > > urb = usb_alloc_urb(BTUSB_MAX_ISOC_FRAMES, GFP_ATOMIC); And my assumption is that you only tested ACL data since this clearly doesn't do anything useful. The isoc URBs and incoming data are not magically started only because you pass this checkpoint. No SCO links and no isoc URBs in the system. Period. If you wanna disable the kernel Bluetooth stack, then you don't get SCO support over USB.
