For link layer based / controller based privacy support we will use the same mgmt flag and setting. There should be no difference from an userspace point of view. The detail between controller based resolution and host based resolution should be abstract away by the kernel. So use the existing Set Privacy management command and the existing privacy settings flag. The RPA resolution is automatically activated as soon as you call Load Identity Resolving Keys command. Even with an empty set of keys. That is what bluetoothd actually does. It will issue that command to enable RPA resolution. And you want that enabled even if you do not use LE Privacy feature yourself. Every time the controller is powered down, you can enable/disable LE Privacy feature. However it is required that the controller is powered down. When using btmgmt you can also test this by just programming your local IRK. btmgmt privacy on 6930dec38f847414e12399c1ca9ac331 btmgmt power on >From now on the kernel will use RPAs locally and when you pair it will also provide the IRK and identity information to the remote peers. The kernel will also rotate the RPAs after a certain amount of time. For testing purposes the debugfs entries identity, identity_resolving_keys and rpa_timeout will provide additional information about internal states.
