Hi Claudio, >It is common to see questions in the ML or in the IRC asking the >status of BLE development and where the get the source code. >Below a short summary of our latest development on Bluetooth Low Energy: > >* Discovery procedure over management interface (kernel): patches sent >to the mailing list, waiting maintainer approval > >* SM(Security Manager): kernel & userspace >- Just Works key generation method is working and accepted upstream; >- Key Exchange and Storage: a first version of the implementation is >implemented and working, but before being accepted upstream it needs >some changes; >- Passkey Entry: Still not implemented; >- Out of Band: Still not implemented; >- Address Resolution: Planned but still not implemented; >- Command Signing: Still not implemented; > >* LE connection improvements: under development <snip ..> Thanks for the detailed summary. However I would also like to understand the status of mgmt interface in terms of its completeness for BR/EDR and LE support. I can see LE Discovery related patches being pushed upstream for mgmt i/f however what intrigues me is whether its totally unavoidable to upgrade to mgmt interface for LE/profiles? Since for SMP key exchange, hciops is inadequate, I am trying to understand as to how far hciops can be relied in terms of LE profiles which would need SMP key distribution and storage?
