So I have finally managed to add quirks in btbcm on the basis on DMI data. This shall be advantageous in the situation when the user shall be using a USB adapter so that the quirk gets ineffective for the adapter. > On 26-Nov-2021, at 8:45 PM, Aditya Garg <gargaditya08@xxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > >> On 25-Nov-2021, at 5:56 PM, Thorsten Leemhuis <regressions@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> >> Hi, this is your Linux kernel regression tracker speaking again. >> >> On 19.11.21 17:59, Aditya Garg wrote: >>>> On 18-Nov-2021, at 12:31 AM, Marcel Holtmann <marcel@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >>>>>> So if this just affects two macs, why can't the fix be realized as a >>>>>> quirk that is only enabled on those two systems?

I have tested this on my 16,1 successfully. Still consider this as a draft as more models have to be added. I am sending this to get the approval of the maintainers whether this quirk is acceptable or not. If yes, I shall send the final patch. > > From 3dab2e1e9e0b266574f5f010efc6680417fb0c61 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 > From: Aditya Garg <gargaditya08@xxxxxxxx> > Date: Fri, 26 Nov 2021 18:28:46 +0530 > Subject: [PATCH] Add quirk to disable read transmit power on MacBook Pro 16 > inch, 2019 > > --- > net/bluetooth/hci_core.c | 18 +++++++++++++++++- > 1 file changed, 17 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git a/net/bluetooth/hci_core.c b/net/bluetooth/hci_core.c > index 8d33aa64846b1c..d11064cb3666ef 100644 > --- a/net/bluetooth/hci_core.c > +++ b/net/bluetooth/hci_core.c > @@ -32,6 +32,7 @@ > #include <linux/property.h> > #include <linux/suspend.h> > #include <linux/wait.h> > +#include <linux/dmi.h> > #include <asm/unaligned.h> > > #include <net/bluetooth/bluetooth.h> > @@ -461,9 +462,23 @@ static void hci_set_event_mask_page_2(struct hci_request *req) > sizeof(events), events); > } > > +static const struct dmi_system_id fix_up_apple_bluetooth[] = { > + { > + /* Match for Apple MacBook Pro 16 inch, 2019 which needs > + * read transmit power to be disabled > + */ > + .matches = { > + DMI_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_VENDOR, "Apple Inc."), > + DMI_MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_NAME, "MacBookPro16,1"), > + }, > + }, > + { } > +}; > + > static int hci_init3_req(struct hci_request *req, unsigned long opt) > { > struct hci_dev *hdev = req->hdev; > + const struct dmi_system_id *dmi_id; > u8 p; > > hci_setup_event_mask(req); > @@ -619,7 +634,8 @@ static int hci_init3_req(struct hci_request *req, unsigned long opt) > hci_req_add(req, HCI_OP_LE_READ_ADV_TX_POWER, 0, NULL); > } > > - if (hdev->commands[38] & 0x80) { > + dmi_id = dmi_first_match(fix_up_apple_bluetooth); > + if (hdev->commands[38] & 0x80 && (!dmi_id)) { > /* Read LE Min/Max Tx Power*/ > hci_req_add(req, HCI_OP_LE_READ_TRANSMIT_POWER, > 0, NULL); >> >> Ciao, Thorsten >> >> #regzbot title bluetooth: "Query LE tx power on startup" broke Bluetooth >> on MacBookPro16,1 >> #regzbot poke
