Hi guys, we need to read the RSSI of LE and basic rate connections to implement the Proximity profile. RSSI included in the advertising packets can't be used for Proximity, it requires an "active" connection. Here are some suggestions: 1. Add a new command to mgmt interface to add a given address into a RSSI "monitoring list". When the connection is established the kernel will automatically track the RSSI of the connection on regular intervals sending HCI_Read_RSSI. Read RSSI value can be reported through a new event in the management interface Forgetting SMP, we can keep the hciops compatibility implementing the same logic inside the hciops plugin. 2. Add a new command to mgmt interface to actively read the RSSI of a given connection/address Approach (1) seems to be more feasible: address multiple address asynchronously. In my opinion, approach(2) will not be transparent enough to our use cases. Any other idea? Cheers, Claudio. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bluetooth" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
