Currently, the user sets the Broadcast Code as an array of bytes when prompted from the assistant submenu. However, the Bluetooth Core Specification requires that, on the UI level, the Broadcast Code shall be represented as a string (Vol 3, Part C, 3.2.6). This patch makes the Broadcast Code be parsed as a string from the assistant prompt. The bluetoothctl-assistant.rst is also updated. The bluetoothctl log below shows a Broadcast Assistant pushing an encrypted stream to a peer: client/bluetoothctl [bluetooth]# [CHG] Controller 00:60:37:31:7E:3F Pairable: yes [bluetooth]# AdvertisementMonitor path registered [bluetooth]# scan on [bluetooth]# [NEW] Device 00:60:37:31:7E:3F 00-60-37-31-7E-3F [bluetooth]# connect 00:60:37:31:7E:3F Attempting to connect to 00:60:37:31:7E:3F [CHG] Device 00:60:37:31:7E:3F Connected: yes [00-60-37-31-7E-3F]# Connection successful [00-60-37-31-7E-3F]# [NEW] Device 19:9A:7A:71:E5:8B 19-9A-7A-71-E5-8B [00-60-37-31-7E-3F]# [NEW] Assistant /org/bluez/hci0/src_19_9A_7A_71_E5_8B/dev_00_60_37_31_7E_3F/bis1 [00-60-37-31-7E-3F]# assistant.push /org/bluez/hci0/src_19_9A_7A_71_E5_8B/dev_00_60_37_31_7E_3F/bis1 [Assistant] Enter Metadata (auto/value): a [Assistant] Enter Broadcast Code (auto/value): Borne House [00-60-37-31-7E-3F]# [CHG] Assistant /org/bluez/hci0/src_19_9A_7A_71_E5_8B/dev_00_60_37_31_7E_3F/bis1 State: pending [00-60-37-31-7E-3F]# Assistant /org/bluez/hci0/src_19_9A_7A_71_E5_8B/dev_00_60_37_31_7E_3F/bis1 pushed [00-60-37-31-7E-3F]# [CHG] Assistant /org/bluez/hci0/src_19_9A_7A_71_E5_8B/dev_00_60_37_31_7E_3F/bis1 State: requesting [00-60-37-31-7E-3F]# [CHG] Assistant /org/bluez/hci0/src_19_9A_7A_71_E5_8B/dev_00_60_37_31_7E_3F/bis1 State: active The btmon log below shows the way the Broadcast Code string is converted into a byte array and sent to the peer via GATT: bluetoothd[6013]: < ACL Data TX: Handle 0 flags 0x00 dlen 28 ATT: Write Command (0x52) len 23 Handle: 0x0040 Type: Broadcast Audio Scan Control Point (0x2bc7) Data[21]: 02018be5717a9a1900db5e3a02ffff010100000000 Opcode: Add Source (0x02) Source_Address_Type: 1 Source_Address: 19:9A:7A:71:E5:8B Source_Adv_SID: 0 Broadcast_ID: 0x3a5edb PA_Sync_State: Synchronize to PA - PAST not available PA_Interval: 0xffff Num_Subgroups: 1 Subgroup #0: BIS_Sync State: 0x00000001 > ACL Data RX: Handle 0 flags 0x01 dlen 2 ATT: Handle Multiple Value Notification (0x23) len 24 Length: 0x0014 Handle: 0x003a Type: Broadcast Receive State (0x2bc8) Data[20]: 01018be5717a9a1900db5e3a0201010000000000 Source_ID: 1 Source_Address_Type: 1 Source_Address: 19:9A:7A:71:E5:8B Source_Adv_SID: 0 Broadcast_ID: 0x3a5edb PA_Sync_State: Synchronized to PA BIG_Encryption: Broadcast_Code required Num_Subgroups: 1 Subgroup #0: BIS_Sync State: 0x00000000 bluetoothd[6013]: < ACL Data TX: Handle 0 flags 0x00 dlen 25 ATT: Write Command (0x52) len 20 Handle: 0x0040 Type: Broadcast Audio Scan Control Point (0x2bc7) Data[18]: 040142c3b8726e6520486f75736500000000 Opcode: Set Broadcast_Code (0x04) Source_ID: 1 Broadcast_Code[16]: 426f726e6520486f7573650000000000 > ACL Data RX: Handle 0 flags 0x01 dlen 2 ATT: Handle Multiple Value Notification (0x23) len 24 Length: 0x0014 Handle: 0x003a Type: Broadcast Receive State (0x2bc8) Data[20]: 01018be5717a9a1900db5e3a0202010100000000 Source_ID: 1 Source_Address_Type: 1 Source_Address: 19:9A:7A:71:E5:8B Source_Adv_SID: 0 Broadcast_ID: 0x3a5edb PA_Sync_State: Synchronized to PA BIG_Encryption: Decrypting Num_Subgroups: 1 Subgroup #0: BIS_Sync State: 0x00000001 Iulia Tanasescu (2): client/assistant: Enter Broadcast Code as string bluetoothctl-assistant.1: Update push command example client/assistant.c | 24 ++++++++++++++---------- client/bluetoothctl-assistant.rst | 16 ++++++++++------ 2 files changed, 24 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) base-commit: 4ed7060ca9dfcc89c55801f818b0b43db6f5acdd -- 2.39.2
