I had compiled bluez for OpenWRT and was running the bluetooth-meshd daemon with a Fanstel BT680T module which implement the Bluetooth 5.0 core specification. The daemon did not properly start and failed with error: LE Scan enable failed (0x12) This error is described on page 2496 of the Bluetooth Core Specification Version 5.2 and is caused by the fact that no random address was initialized. After the valuable input of Brian Gix on my first patch, I have now prepared this patch. I have now added a random address intialization after the HCI was reset in the configure_hci function. The HCI layer is now correctly initialized and no 0x12 errors are thrown. This is the first time that I contribute to Bluez so please forgive me if I made any styling mistake in the patch format. I also did not include my details in the 'AUTHORS' file just yet as I first wanted to wait for your reaction. In case the patch is accepted my name can be added to the 'AUTHORS' file as: Daan Pape <daan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Please do not hesitate to ask any further questions if neccesary. Kind regards, Daan Pape Daan Pape (1): Added random address in mesh HCI initialization to prevent error 0x12 when enabling/disabling LE scans mesh/mesh-io-generic.c | 9 +++++++++ 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+) -- 2.20.1
