Hey, thanks for the reply and sorry for a vaguely posted question. I didn't know it was sent incorrectly (I'm not getting the posts I post from the mailing list). I have found references that it isn't something standard: https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-bluetooth/msg71445.html But there are all these BLE modules that interface through SPI. Are those cases in which the host is implemented on the BLE module itself, and SPI is used as a carrier between a host and an application, not connecting the host and controller?

So it needs to be done with a vendor protocol. If that protocol is defined somewhere, it will require a driver in drivers/bluetooth/ to work. Normally these drivers are pretty simple, but a driver is needed. > > Regards > > Marcel > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bluetooth" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
