is there anything wrong with a bool type? And frankly using a flag seems more safe than just a boolean.

Have you tested this? This will cause many error from tools like hciconfig or hcitool.

Fun part is actually that even commands injected via hcitool etc. will be added to the sent_cmd queue unless they are vendor specific commands. However some manufactures choose to use command complete for their vendor commands as well (others don’t).

I rather see this done super cleanly. We have a pending cmd request from the kernel, make sure it gets answered with the corresponding command complete or command status and not just some other event. If there is a command complete or command status for a command that we don’t have pending, then ignore.

Frankly, you are just hacking around here.

Marcel
