Hi Chen-Yu,

Thanks for the interest, and sorry for the slow reply - I've been away on business.

The latter was why my patches were so terse. I'd done v3 at the weekend:

https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-bluetooth/msg78694.html

But Rob and Marcel wanted minor changes:

https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-bluetooth/msg78706.html
https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-bluetooth/msg78713.html

Now as I was going away, I quickly made the changes requested, and posted night before I left.

Your questions are good, but without a clear answer. What I will say is that

 * the device drive hci_h5 is a bluetooth hci 3 wire driver
 * I take this to be GND,RX,TX
 * I also assume this means BCSP
 * BCSP is either 3 wire or 5 wire
 * The device tree hooks I took from

   https://github.com/TinkerBoard/debian_kernel/commit/6a3128ade33f758887048578ada61a4b7ab8e678

 * a patch direct from ASUS, and so I take it this is how the board is
   wired up.
 * If you look at the datasheet:
   http://files.pine64.org/doc/datasheet/pine64/RTL8723BS.pdf
 * You can see as well and RX and TX on pin 42,42 there is a UART_CTS
   on 44,  BT_WAKE on 6, BT_HOST_WAKE
 * So I'm guessing these are wired up as described in the asus device tree

Now my problem is I don't have a board, I'm trying to mainline this your Arm Arch users.

So really this asks the question as to if the hci_h5 is the correct driver for the RTL8723BS; I think hci_h5 is intended just for 3 wire - so probably can't get changes there. Does make you wonder if there should be a more general driver?

Anyway, I'm not expert here. Really just want to get this chip supported in the device tree. So I just did the minimal to load the module.

If you have any thoughts though, do let the thread know.

Regards,

David.

Hi,

Interested party here. I'd like to get this working on the Pine64 which has
an RTL8723BS module. I had made some changes and had it working but didn't
get around to doing the patches yet.

The commit log is a bit lacking, as it doesn't provide any context or details
relevant to the changes in this patch, but also has details that should be
in the changelog, and not the commit log.

+Realtek Bluetooth devices connected via a UART.
+These devices typically also have a WI-FI connected via SDIO - the
+compatible described here is used just for referencing the Bluetooth.
+
+- compatible: should be "realtek,<name>-bt"
+  except for "realtek,trl8761atv" - which only has a serial Bluetooth connection
+       "realtek,rtl8723as-bt"
+       "realtek,rtl8723bs-bt"
+       "realtek,rtl8723ds-bt"
+       "realtek,rtl8761atv"
+       "realtek,rtl8821as-bt"
+       "realtek,rtl8821cs-bt"
+       "realtek,rtl8822bs-bt"
+
+Example:
+
+&uart0 {
+       status = "okay";
+       pinctrl-0 = <&uart0_xfer>, <&uart0_cts>;
+       bluetooth {
+               compatible = "realtek,rtl8723bs-bt";
+               uart_rts_gpios = <&gpio4 19 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
+               pinctrl-names = "default","rts_gpio";
+               pinctrl-0 = <&uart0_rts>;
+               pinctrl-1 = <&uart0_gpios>;
+               BT,reset_gpio    = <&gpio4 29 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
+               BT,wake_gpio     = <&gpio4 26 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
+               BT,wake_host_irq = <&gpio4 31 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
You haven't listed these three properties in the bindings.

Second, for the last one, the property name says irq, but it takes
a GPIO phandle. This is slightly misleading.

Furthermore, ACPI already uses the names "device-wake-gpios",
"enable-gpios", and "host-wake-gpios". Would it be possible to
stick to those?

Last, you don't actually add support for them in the driver.

So why are they there?

Regards
ChenYu
