Even if this purpose doesn't seem to give any gain (well, except maybe when one would like to access full buffered request from a single write) and can lead to OOM in case of a service that doesn't do obex_put_stream_start right in .chkput. Thus I didn't think of .put as something useless. If no, then the problem is not in the OpenOBEX itself, but in the way it is used in obexd. OBEX_EV_REQCHECK is the event that is to be delivered after the first packet. As Hendrik mentioned, it can be omitted if there was only one packet, but obexd deals with it - check_put() is also called from cmd_put() (called on OBEX_EV_REQ), when the request haven't been yet "checked". This could be done better by getting rid of .chkput and calling .put on OBEX_EV_REQCHECK (or EV_REQ if no previous EV_REQCHECK) and .flush always on EV_REQ. And you are right that unfortunately checking for .put existence is done too late, so the request will be fully received before responding with "not implemented". Otherwise things are quite functional. But well, now with the obexd going to be rewritten to use gobex, I suppose these things do not matter any longer. -- Slawomir Bochenski -- 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
