That is not needed until a patch is in Linus's tree. Why do you need it
earlier?

That is up to the bluetooth maintainers, they have to accept it first.

Subject: Re: [PATCHv2] Bluetooth: quirk disabling LE Read Transmit Power

Hi, this is your Linux kernel regression tracker speaking. To make this
easy and quick to read for everyone I for once rely on top-posting:

Bluetooth maintainers, what's the status here? The proposed patch is
fixing a regression. It's not a recent one (it afaics was introduced in
v5.11-rc1). Nevertheless it would be good to get this finally resolved.
But this thread seems inactive for more than a week now. Or was progress
made, but is only visible somewhere else?

Ciao, Thorsten (carrying his Linux kernel regression tracker hat)

P.S.: As a Linux kernel regression tracker I'm getting a lot of reports
on my table. I can only look briefly into most of them. Therefore I
unfortunately will get things wrong or miss something important. I hope
that's not the case here; if you think it is, don't hesitate to tell me
about it in a public reply. That's in everyone's interest, as what I
wrote above might be misleading to everyone reading this, which is
something I'd like to avoid.

BTW, I have no personal interest in this issue, which is tracked using
regzbot, my Linux kernel regression tracking bot
(https://linux-regtracking.leemhuis.info/regzbot/). I'm only posting
this mail to hopefully get things rolling again and hence don't need to
be CC on all further activities wrt to this regression. Also feel free
to ignore the following lines, they are meant for regzbot:

I think the best solution is getting broadcom to update their firmware,
I've just sent them a message through a form on their website, I couldn't
seem to get it to tell me "Your message has been sent", so it's possible
that it didn't submit (more likely I've sent the same message several times).

If I hear back from them I'll send something here.

Thx for that. But FWIW: from the point of the regression tracker that's
not the best solution, as according to your report this is a regression.
IOW: we deal with something that used to up to a certain kernel version
and was broken by a change to the kernel. That is something frown upon
in Linux kernel development, hence changes introducing regression are
often quickly reverted, if they can't get fixed by follow up change quickly.

That sentence has two "quickly", as we want to prevent more people
running into the issue, resulting in a loss of trust. But that's what
will happen if we wait for a firmware update to get developed, tested,
published, and rolled out. And even then we can't expect users to have
the latest firmware installed when they switch to a new kernel.

Hence the best solution *afaics* might be: fix this in the kernel
somehow now with a workaround; once the firmware update is out, change
the kernel again to only apply the workaround if the old firmware is in use.

At least that's how it looks to me from the outside. But as mentioned
earlier already: as a Linux kernel regression tracker I'm getting a lot
of reports on my table. I can only look briefly into most of them.
Therefore I unfortunately will get things wrong or miss something
important. I hope that's not the case here; if you think it is, don't
hesitate to tell me about it in a public reply. That's in everyone's
interest, as what I wrote above might be misleading to everyone reading
this, which is something I'd like to avoid.

I have an idea. Can we make LE Read Transmit Power as a module parameter and users can turn it off if it is causing trouble. I have a patch for the same but haven't tested it yet.

Module parameters are for the 1990's, please never add new ones as they
modify code, not data, and you want to do something like this on a
per-device basis, not on "all devices in the system", right?

Exactly. Since the issue affects only a few Macs and not all devices. In fact I have spotted just 2 Macs yet affected with this issue.

When Greg said "per-device basis", he afaics meant: per-device in a
system, as a module parameter would also affect a second bluetooth
controller if there was one (say one connected via USB) -- and that
shouldn't happen.

And FWIW: it's still a regression if something that used to work
suddenly requires a module parameter to get working.

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? Or are they impossible
to detect clearly via DMI data or something like that?

A part of the output of dmidecode is below :-

The product name, MacBookPro16,1 in my case, is unique for each model. If possible a quirk to disable LE Read Transmit Power can be made on this basis.

I think we should be able to quirk based off the acpi _CID "apple-uart-blth"
or _HID "BCM2E7C". Marcel suggested quirking based of the acpi table here
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-bluetooth/[email protected]/

This would catch some unaffected Macs, but they don't support the LE Read
Transmit Power command anyway (the affected macs were released after it
was added to the Bluetooth spec, while the unaffected Macs were released
before it was added to the spec, and thus don't support it).

I'm not sure how to go about applying a quirk based off this, there are
quirks in drivers/bluetooth/hci_bcm.c (no_early_set_baudrate and
drive_rts_on_open), but they don't seem to be based off acpi ids.

It might be simpler to make it ignore the Unknown Command error, like
in this patch https://lore.kernel.org/linux-bluetooth/CABBYNZLjSfcG_KqTEbL6NOSvHhA5-b1t_S=3FQP4=GwW21kuzg@mail.gmail.com/
however that only applies on bluetooth-next and needed the status it
checks for to be -56, not 0x01.

so we abstain from try-and-error sending of commands. The Bluetooth spec
has a list of supported commands that a host can query for a reason. This
is really broken behavior of the controller and needs to be pointed out as
such.

The question is just how we quirk it.

Marcel

This thread once again looks stalled and smells a lot like "everyone
agrees that his should be fixed, but afaics nobody submitted a fix or
committed to work on one". Please speak up if my impression is wrong, as
this is a regression and thus needs to be fixed, ideally quickly. Part
of my job is to make that happen and thus remind developers and
maintainers about this until we have a fix.

On the basis of DMI data, I have made this patch to disable read transmit power on 16,1. 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.

Subject: Re: [PATCHv2] Bluetooth: quirk disabling LE Read Transmit Power

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.

Subject: [PATCH 1/6] Bluetooth: add quirk disabling LE Read Transmit Power

From: Aditya Garg <[email protected]>

Some devices have a bug causing them to not work if they query LE tx power on startup. Thus we add a quirk in order to not query it and default min/max tx power values to HCI_TX_POWER_INVALID.

These lines are not wrapped at 72 columns :(

Also the changes line goes below the --- line, as documented in the

that part is for the reviewer and needs to go after ---. Otherwise please break

list all the MacBooks that you found problematic right now. We add the

Actually leave the comment out. You are not adding any value that isn’t
already in the variable name or the DMI. It is just repeating the obvious.

There is really no need to have a variable for this.

From: Aditya Garg <[email protected]>

Some devices have a bug causing them to not work if they query
LE tx power on startup. Thus we add a quirk in order to not query it
and default min/max tx power values to HCI_TX_POWER_INVALID.

Hi! Great to see progress for this regression.

FWIW: In case you need to send an improved patch, could you please add
this after your 'Signed-off-by:' (see at (¹) below for the reasoning):

Reported-by: Orlando Chamberlain <[email protected]>
Link:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]
Fixes: 7c395ea521e6 ("Bluetooth: Query LE tx power on startup")

And if the patch is already good to go: could the subsystem maintainer
please add it when applying? See (¹) for the reasoning.

Ciao, Thorsten, your Linux kernel regression tracker.


(¹) Long story: The commit message would benefit from a link to the
regression report, for reasons explained in
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst. To quote:

```
If related discussions or any other background information behind the
change can be found on the web, add 'Link:' tags pointing to it. In case
your patch fixes a bug, for example, add a tag with a URL referencing
the report in the mailing list archives or a bug tracker;
```

This concept is old, but the text was reworked recently to make this use
case for the Link: tag clearer. For details see:
https://git.kernel.org/linus/1f57bd42b77c

Yes, that "Link:" is not really crucial; but it's good to have if
someone needs to look into the backstory of this change sometime in the
future. But I care for a different reason. I'm tracking this regression
(and others) with regzbot, my Linux kernel regression tracking bot. This
bot will notice if a patch with a Link: tag to a tracked regression gets
posted and record that, which allowed anyone looking into the regression
to quickly gasp the current status from regzbot's webui
(https://linux-regtracking.leemhuis.info/regzbot ) or its reports. The
bot will also notice if a commit with a Link: tag to a regression report
is applied by Linus and then automatically mark the regression as
resolved then.

IOW: this tag makes my life a regression tracker a lot easier, as I
otherwise have to tell regzbot manually when the fix lands. :-/


P.S.: As a Linux kernel regression tracker I'm getting a lot of reports
on my table. I can only look briefly into most of them. Unfortunately
therefore I sometimes will get things wrong or miss something important.
I hope that's not the case here; if you think it is, don't hesitate to
tell me about it in a public reply. That's in everyone's interest, as
what I wrote above might be misleading to everyone reading this; any
suggestion I gave they thus might sent someone reading this down the
wrong rabbit hole, which none of us wants.

BTW, I have no personal interest in this issue, which is tracked using
regzbot, my Linux kernel regression tracking bot
(https://linux-regtracking.leemhuis.info/regzbot/). I'm only posting
this mail to get things rolling again and hence don't need to be CC on
all further activities wrt to this regression.

You want me to replace const struct dmi_system_id *dmi_id; with const struct dmi_system_id or remove it altogether.

Please realize that maintainers have lots and lots of patches to review.
If after 2 weeks of no response, it is fine to resend the patch again.

If you wish to help out with the maintainer's review load, please feel
free to review patches on the relevant mailing list to help lighten that
load such that your patch can be reviewed quicker.

It's hard to tell what the differences between versions of this patch
are. This spot here after the "---" is often used for a change log
(e.g. "v5->v6: Made change X and change Y"), so it would be useful to
have that if you can add one in future patches. I think someone may have
mentioned this earlier.

This line seems to produce a compiler warning:

drivers/bluetooth/btbcm.c: In function ‘btbcm_read_info’:
drivers/bluetooth/btbcm.c:384:22: warning: empty declaration with type
qualifier does not redeclare tag
384 | const struct dmi_system_id;
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~

I think Marcel mentioned this line could be removed.

The two patches make Bluetooth work on my MacBookPro16,1, with and without
that line.

I am getting tired of saying this, but PLEASE use scripts/checkpatch.pl
before you send out your patches.

If you had done so, you would see the following output in it:

CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis

+ if ((hdev->commands[38] & 0x80) &&
+ !test_bit(HCI_QUIRK_BROKEN_READ_TRANSMIT_POWER, &hdev->quirks)) {


Please fix.

Sorry for offending you. The thing is that I am inexperienced in the field of submitting patches upstream. v8 shouldn't disappoint you.

while patch and indentation look good now, it doesn’t actually apply
cleanly against bluetooth-next tree. So you need to re-spin it.

Subject: [PATCH v9 1/2] Bluetooth: add quirk disabling LE Read Transmit Power

From: Aditya Garg <[email protected]>

Some devices have a bug causing them to not work if they query
LE tx power on startup. Thus we add a quirk in order to not query it
and default min/max tx power values to HCI_TX_POWER_INVALID.

Hi, this once again is your Linux kernel regression tracker speaking.

If anyone wonders: this was for v5.11-rc1.

And there are these two pages now for 19 days. What's the hold-up? Or do
you consider the changes to dangerous to merge now?

Sure, it's not a recent regression, so it might not look that urgent.
But it OTOH affects everyone that can't go back to v5.10 (the newest
Longterm kernel without the regression) -- for example if a user needs a
post-v5.10 feature or upgrades to a distro with a newer kernel.

That's why this fix (unless you considerer it to dangerous) IMHO should
be merged rather sooner than later and and not wait for the merge window
of v5.17. Another aspect against waiting for the next merge window: it
contributes to piling up a large number of changes that need to be
backported to stable and longterm kernels once v5.17-rc1 is out,
resulting in stable and longterm releases with a huge pile of changes:

Ciao, Thorsten
