Support for defer setup in SCO sockets has been integrated into kernel 3.8, and we don't support it yet (WIP). This series is only a RFC, but if anyway wants to test it, it should use a kernel release < 3.8. >> This series is based on top of Mikel Astiz' work to add BlueZ 5 support to the >> bluetooth modules. > > I haven't yet looked more closely what your patches contain, but do you > mean that your patches require Mikel's patches to be applied first? > Mikel said that his BlueZ 5 patch set (as submitted, I don't know what's > happening in private git repositories) shouldn't be applied. > Yes, I know that. But an updated version of his work to support BlueZ 5 will have to be applied for these patches. I'm working on top of the 'bluez5-head' branch in his repository, rebased on upstream's 'next' branch. I don't know if this is the same set on the mailing list or not. -- Jo?o Paulo Rechi Vita http://about.me/jprvita
