To my understanding, in order to pass these tests, you need to register a GATT characteristic that is readable only through LE or BR/EDR, but not both at the same time. However, when I register a service+characteristic through bluetoothctl, it is automatically registered for both LE and BR/EDR. To verify this, I use gatttool with and without "-p 31" to connect over BR/EDR and LE respectively, and the characteristic shows up in both. Based on the previous discussion, and based on reading the BlueZ API, there doesn't seem to be a way to only support ONE transport for a characteristic? Is this conclusion correct?

Here is the commit that added support for it which specifically targets BI-34-C:
