The problem is:
On the machine which has Intel 7260 BT module, i use it to connect a
bluetooth headset,
it can successfully scan and connect to the headset, when i play sound
to the bt headset,
the problem comes, if the bt module is connected to the XHCI, it can
work very well.
u@u-Lenovo-B4400:~$ lsusb -t
1-7:1.0: No such file or directory
/: Bus 02.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=xhci_hcd/4p, 5000M

But if the bt module is connected to the EHCI, it always fails to play
sound.

The BT moudle version, firmware version and linux kernel version:
dmesg snippet,
[ 2.164386] Bluetooth: hci0: read Intel version: 370710018002030d00
[ 2.200701] Bluetooth: hci0: Intel Bluetooth firmware file:
intel/ibt-hw-37.7.10-fw-1.80.2.3.d.bseq
And the firmware was got from
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.bluez.kernel/37580.
To verify the firmware is the latest, i execute following commands,
u@u-Lenovo-B4400:~$ sudo hcitool cmd 0x3f 0x005 0x00
< HCI Command: ogf 0x3f, ocf 0x0005, plen 1
00
> HCI Event: 0x0e plen 13
01 05 FC 00 37 07 10 01 80 02 03 0D 2E
On the machine, i installed ubuntu-12.04 (kernel is 3.5), then i
replaced the kernel to the linux-3.8 and
the latest upstream kernel linux-3.12.0-rc6, the situation had no
difference, the problem still can be
reproduced on very linux kernel version.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My investigation:
I did the test on dozens of laptops on which all installed intel 7260
wifi+bt combo, in case the bt module
is connected to EHCI bus, it will 100% fail to play sound to the bt
headset. If the bt module is connected
to the XHCI bus, it will work very well, including play audio to a bt
headset.
And more investigation show, if the bt module is on the EHCI bus, it
can't receive any SCO packet like this,
u@u-Lenovo-B4400:~$ hciconfig
hci0: Type: BR/EDR Bus: USB
BD Address: 00:15:00:CC:2D:D2 ACL MTU: 1021:5 SCO MTU: 96:5
UP RUNNING PSCAN
RX bytes:6687 acl:61 sco:0 events:308 errors:0
TX bytes:19367 acl:70 sco:3 commands:179 errors:0
if the bt module is on the XHCI bus, it can transmit and receive SCO
packets very well,
u@u-Lenovo-B4400:~$ hciconfig
hci0: Type: BR/EDR Bus: USB
BD Address: 00:15:00:CC:2D:D2 ACL MTU: 1021:5 SCO MTU: 96:5
UP RUNNING PSCAN
RX bytes:572756 acl:47 sco:11173 events:221 errors:0
TX bytes:586261 acl:55 sco:11137 commands:137 errors:0
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So could anybody be kindly help to confirm this problem, and could the
maintainer of intel 7260 bt driver/firmware
be kindly to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Hui.
