Yep, DIS is controlled by the daemon since you can set the vendor, product and version using main.conf. > However as our software creates a service on 0x180A it causes a > conflict, as the application we are making our software with reads > from the first service available which is the one generated by BlueZ. You should probably stop doing that and just use main.conf to set the values you want to be published, we should actually blacklist DIS to be registered by applications since that is defined by the platform having the application to override may actually cause problems. > It looks like it was discussed about a kill switch being added of > "DeviceIdOverLE" to then disable this but I can't find any reference > to this at all. > > How would be best to disable this? Disable DIS on the application, you can actually check if the adapter has enabled it already using its UUIDs: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/bluetooth/bluez.git/tree/doc/adapter-api.txt#n321 bluetoothctl also can be use to print the list of UUIDs that the adapter is exposing (0000180a-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb is DIS): [bluetooth]# show Controller 00:AA:01:01:00:24 (public) Name: Alias: Class: 0x00000000 Powered: no Discoverable: no DiscoverableTimeout: 0x000000b4 Pairable: yes UUID: Message Notification Se..
