Use btbcm helpers to perform controller setup.
Perform host UART reset to init speed between btbcm_patchram() and
btbcm_finalize(). This may be need because firmware loading may have
reseted controller UART to init speed.

I guess -ENOENT means no firmware is required and not a
request_firmware() failure. Not sure what is meant here.

You're right, btbcm_patchram() return test does not work as I expected.
I can change this by performing uart speed change only if it returns no
error.
err = btbcm_patchram(hu->hdev, fw_name);
if (!err) {
/* Firmware loading may have reseted controller UART to init speed */
if (hu->proto->init_speed)
hci_uart_set_baudrate(hu, hu->proto->init_speed);
}
err = btbcm_finalize(hu->hdev);
Or I can move request_firmware() out of btbcm_patchram() and test it
before calling btbcm_patchram(). This will imply to change
btbcm_patchram() to accept a firmware instead of firmware name.
err = request_firmware(&fw, fw_name, &hu->hdev->dev);
if (err < 0) {
BT_INFO("%s: BCM: patch %s not found", hu->hdev->name, fw_name);
return 0;
}
err = btbcm_patchram(hu->hdev, fw);
if (!err) {
/* Firmware loading may have reseted controller UART to init speed */
if (hu->proto->init_speed)
hci_uart_set_baudrate(hu, hu->proto->init_speed);
}
err = btbcm_finalize(hu->hdev);
Arend, Marcel, any advice regarding this ?
Well, functionally it does not make a difference as the request_firmware
is the first call done in btbcm_patchram(). So if it solves your problem
I would go for option 2. Other question: is there a reason why the error
code from request_firmware is not returned?
If an error is returned it will stop Bluetooth setup.
So, when request_firmware() returns an error, the Bluetooth controller
will be used with current firmware and 0 is returned as bcm_setup is
completed.
IF: There is generally no "current firmware" if the firmware download fails or not attempted. The device would run out of the ROM then which is not terribly useful if Bluetooth functionality is needed. Thanks, -Ilya
The BCM4324B3 embedded in T100 is able to operate without firmware
loading, at least performing Bluetooth discovery.
I think it is better to run without firmware loading than not allowing
to use Bluetooth controller at all.
regards
Fred
