Hi Alexander,
You want this option if you're using e.g. a bt-keyboard as the only
input device. Other solutions to power on an adapter at startup are
either unreliable or too complicated.
E.g. I had a
sleep 4
echo 'power on' | bluetoothctl
in some startup-script. And with an update of bluez from 5.23 to
5.29 Murphy visited me and I had a box without a usable keyboard
because those 4 second haven't been enough anymore.
I think you better have a special script with something like wait-for-adapter or something similar instead of trying to force policy into the daemon.
Sorry, this won't happen and as I'm already used to have to patch big
parts of any Linux system which should be usable I don't care much if
this patch ends up in bluez. ;)
We took the power on policy out of BlueZ 5 on purpose.
Nobody has to use the option which is by default off.
Thanks for the fast response.
Regards,
Alexander Holler
