BLE devices have two different address types: public or
random. So we need to provide this address type on keys
in the "primary" file to avoid duplicate BLE address types
around the BlueZ.
This series changes the storage to store the address type
together with the device address.
Hemant Gupta has been working on this on "Store LE device address
type with primary list" but his patch hasn't been accepted and
he didn't send a new reviewed version of that patch.
I have patches for the other storage files as well, I'll
send them soon. There is a potential problem in
device_address_cmp() function which checks the address only.
I am investigating how to fix it to compare address and type
without breaking the current code.
v3's changes:
- (1/3): Remove unnecessary comment about the new storage
format and code that leads with the old storage
format.
- (2/3): Just use the initial version of this patch (the
returning < 2 check in sscanf() function).
- (3/3): New patch that fixes removing device services from
"primary" file by passing a key with the new
storage format in delete_device_service(). Note
also that this function was modified to only treat
the primary case - since we have old storage format
still being used in the other LE-related storage
files. So, it will need to be modified in order to
delete device services of other files (characteristics,
ccc, etc) on other series.
