Hi Claudio, > to Jaikumar: > The profiles will indirectly manage the connections providing > informations such as connection parameters(interval, window, ...) and > addresses, but the kernel needs to centralize/manage the connections. As per section 9.3.8, a host can still perform direct connection establishment procedure by telling controller to "ignore the White List and process connectible advertising packets from a specific single device specified by the Host". Wouldn't this be same as letting the host[read profiles] directly manage connections? > We can't allow the profiles to control the connection directly, a > remote can implement more than one profile, maybe with different > constraints. The host can also provide inputs, for instance power > saving profile or maximum number of LE connections. Why not? under direct connection establishment procedure, it should be possible for a host to establish connection with a remote peer device with host selected connection configurable parameters. Why should we deprive a bluez host of establishing such a connection... Or did I miss something here?
