See page > http://swiesmann.de/?p=30. what is the firmware name that the files from the vendor have. My problem with introducing a VID+PID based naming is that it might causes problems when the VID+PID is re-used for a different SKU or revision of the same board and we should have picked the firmware based on the board version. And the HEX vs HCD is most likely the same as Intel’s seq vs bseq. Just one is a text file and the other a binary version of the same data. In all cases these are HCI commands anyway. > Interestingly, now that I look at that page more closely, Ubuntu 12.04 > LTS with kernel 3.8 supports this already? Has Ubuntu made a patch > that bluetooth-next doesn't have? That is Ubuntu for you. They just push patches into their kernel and never give them back to upstream or make sure they get merged into bluetooth-next. I really dislike that behavior. It is always the easy way out instead of trying to do the right thing. >> I also wonder if there is a bit more general naming convention for the files. For example with a quick search I found references to BCM2045B2_002.002.011.0348.0349.hcd and similar. They indicate that the naming is not based on the USB vendor and product ID. > > Some version numbering scheme is applied by Broadcom.

Reuse of PIDs is plenty. Especially with the cheaper dongle manufactures. >> For example for the Intel ROM patching, we used internal versioning to pick the right file. That way we were able to run it for all of our devices. For the Broadcom devices, it might make sense to run the patchram routine for all devices not just this one specific one. > > It would make sense, but I have no way of testing it.

I have a bunch of Broadcom USB dongles around here. I might not get to it this week, but worth while trying to see how this works out. At least the product string could be taken from the USB descriptors. Seems that Broadcom devices are pretty good in that regard no matter what. So quickly checking with mine, they give you BCM20702A0 and from the looks of it, the firmware files are prefix with exactly that. >>> Signed-off-by: Petri Gynther <pgynther@xxxxxxxxxx> >>> --- >>> drivers/bluetooth/btusb.c | 139 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ >>> 1 file changed, 139 insertions(+) >>> >>> diff --git a/drivers/bluetooth/btusb.c b/drivers/bluetooth/btusb.c >>> index f338b0c..371d7e9 100644 >>> --- a/drivers/bluetooth/btusb.c >>> +++ b/drivers/bluetooth/btusb.c >>> @@ -49,6 +49,7 @@ static struct usb_driver btusb_driver; >>> #define BTUSB_WRONG_SCO_MTU 0x40 >>> #define BTUSB_ATH3012 0x80 >>> #define BTUSB_INTEL 0x100 >>> +#define BTUSB_BCM20702_PATCHRAM 0x200 >>> >>> static const struct usb_device_id btusb_table[] = { >>> /* Generic Bluetooth USB device */ >>> @@ -103,6 +104,7 @@ static const struct usb_device_id btusb_table[] = { >>> /* Broadcom BCM20702A0 */ >>> { USB_DEVICE(0x0489, 0xe042) }, >>> { USB_DEVICE(0x04ca, 0x2003) }, >>> + { USB_DEVICE(0x0a5c, 0x22be), .driver_info = BTUSB_BCM20702_PATCHRAM }, >>> { USB_DEVICE(0x0b05, 0x17b5) }, >>> { USB_DEVICE(0x0b05, 0x17cb) }, >>> { USB_DEVICE(0x413c, 0x8197) }, >>> @@ -1380,6 +1382,140 @@ exit_mfg_deactivate: >>> return 0; >>> } >>> >>> +static int btusb_setup_bcm20702(struct hci_dev *hdev) >>> +{ >>> + struct btusb_data *data = hci_get_drvdata(hdev); >>> + struct usb_device *udev = data->udev; >>> + char fw_name[64]; >>> + const struct firmware *fw; >>> + const u8 *fw_ptr; >>> + size_t fw_size; >>> + const struct hci_command_hdr *cmd; >>> + const u8 *cmd_param; >>> + u16 opcode; >>> + struct sk_buff *skb; >>> + struct hci_rp_read_local_version *ver; >>> + long ret; >>> + >>> + snprintf(fw_name, sizeof(fw_name), "brcm/bcm20702-%04x-%04x.hcd", >>> + le16_to_cpu(udev->descriptor.idVendor), >>> + le16_to_cpu(udev->descriptor.idProduct)); >>> + >>> + ret = request_firmware(&fw, fw_name, &hdev->dev); >>> + if (ret < 0) { >>> + BT_INFO("%s: BCM20702: patch %s not found", hdev->name, >>> + fw_name); >>> + ret = 0; >>> + goto get_fw_ver; >>> + } >>> + >>> + /* Reset */ >>> + skb = __hci_cmd_sync(hdev, HCI_OP_RESET, 0, NULL, HCI_INIT_TIMEOUT); >>> + if (IS_ERR(skb)) { >>> + ret = PTR_ERR(skb); >>> + BT_ERR("%s: HCI_OP_RESET failed (%ld)", hdev->name, ret); >>> + goto reset_fw; >>> + } >>> + kfree_skb(skb); >>> + >>> + /* Read Local Version Info */ >>> + skb = __hci_cmd_sync(hdev, HCI_OP_READ_LOCAL_VERSION, 0, NULL, >>> + HCI_INIT_TIMEOUT); >>> + if (IS_ERR(skb)) { >>> + ret = PTR_ERR(skb); >>> + BT_ERR("%s: HCI_OP_READ_LOCAL_VERSION failed (%ld)", >>> + hdev->name, ret); >>> + goto reset_fw; >>> + } >>> + >> >> You need a length check here to ensure that resulting buffer is the correct length.

What I am saying is that after you go through ->setup() the kernel will call these commands anyway. So what you are getting now is this: setup() HCI_Reset HCI_Read_Local_Version_Info .. load HCD HCI_Reset HCI_Read_Local_Version_Info init() HCI_Reset HCI_Read_Local_Features HCI_Read_Local_Version_Info HCI_Read_BD_Address The init is always executed right after the setup. Unload btusb, start btmon and reload btusb.

I'd > say let's start with this and extend from there. We can not easily go back and revert this change though. Can you include /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices part for this device. Btw. we have seen devices that pretend to be Broadcom dongles or CSR dongles, but they are not. They also have a split personality where USB descriptors say they are one thing and HCI_Read_Local_Version tells us they are another. They are essentially cheap knockoffs from China.
