I see where this is going now, the firmware actually contain these duplicated addresses which then are checked and cause HCI_QUIRK_USE_BDADDR_PROPERTY then the tries hci_dev_get_bd_addr_from_property which loads the local-bd-address property from the parente device (SOC?), btw that could also have an invalid/duplicated address. Anyway the fact that firmware loading itself is programming a potentially duplicated address already seems wrong enough to me, either it shall leave it as 00... or set a valid address otherwise we always risk missing yet another duplicate address being introduced and then used over the air causing all sorts of problems for users. So to be clear, QCA firmware shall never attempt to flash anything other than 00:00:00:00:00:00 if you don't have a valid and unique identity address, so we can get rid of this table altogether. ps: If the intention is to have these addresses for testing then these firmwares files shall probably be kept private, since as explained above the use of duplicated addresses will cause problems to users who have no idea they have to be changed. > > -- > Luiz Augusto von Dentz -- Luiz Augusto von Dentz
