Hello,

I'm currently working on a plugin to implement a GATT peripheral. Based on
the plugins/gatt-example and the profiles/alert/server, I finally got
something which works: read, write, with dbus signaling.
But, notifications doesn't work...
All seems ok until the call to "g_attrib_send()".

static void attio_connected_cb(GAttrib *attrib, gpointer user_data)
{
   [...]
   len = enc_notification(p_adapter->batterylevel_chr.level_hnd_value,
                     nd->value, nd->len, pdu, len);
   [...]
   ret = g_attrib_send(attrib, 0, pdu, len, destroy_notify_callback,
cb, NULL);
   return;
}

The parameters passed to g_attrib_send seems valid, I have verified the pdu,
len and user_data, but I'm not sure to understand well all the fields of
"attrib" (struct _GAttrib). Moreover the return value is 0.

Some extra details:
- the destroy_notify_callback is not called (maybe normal as the
notification is not succesfully sent).
- in g_attrib_send, the call to bt_att_send() return 0. After this point my
understanding of the source code became a little bit fuzzy.
You might not be connected then so perhaps there is a bug in attio
callback. Which version are you using?
I'm using the v5.27. I see no signs of disconnection in the debug messages, but I will explore this lead. For now I use a Nordic dongle & software (master panel monitor) for my tests and the connection seems ok (even if the notificatons are not sent, the read/write operation are performed witout problem). But when I use gatttool I'm disconnected constantly after 5-15s, (in this case the debug log tells me it). I have not yet tested with a BT LE-enabled smartphone, but if I'm also disconnected, maybe the two problems are related.

It would be great if someone could suggest me a fix or a workaround.
I have also developped some extensions for the function gatt_service_add(),
such as the support of static value characteristic, and the descriptors for
presentation format, valid range and user description.
Before submitting this patch, I want to know which is the patch policy for
the bluez project? (validation test to perform, etc.).
It is documented in Submitting patches section in the HACKING:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/bluetooth/bluez.git/tree/HACKING
Ok, I had totally forgotten this file. According to the coding standards, I've some modifications to do. The answer is maybe obvious, but if I modify the behavior of the function gatt_service_add(), I should also patch the profiles and plugins which use it, accordingly?

Thank for your answer,
