Subject: [PATCH v1] Bluetooth: disable filter dup when scan for adv monitor

From: Yun-Hao Chung <[email protected]>

Disable duplicates filter when scanning for advertisement monitor for
the following reasons. The scanning includes active scan and passive
scan.

For HW pattern filtering (ex. MSFT), some controllers ignore
RSSI_Sampling_Period when the duplicates filter is enabled.

For SW pattern filtering, when we're not doing interleaved scanning, it
is necessary to disable duplicates filter, otherwise hosts can only
receive one advertisement and it's impossible to know if a peer is still
in range.

can we be a bit more specific on which controller does what. I am not inclined to always disable duplicate filtering unless your controller doesn’t do what you want it to do.

I also disagree with the last statement. If the device moved out of range (or comes back for that matter) you should get a HCI_VS_MSFT_LE_Monitor_Device_Event event that tells you if a device is in range or not.

Will update the commit message and submit again.

The last statement is about software filtering, which is used when
MSFT is not supported. Software filtering in the kernel is basically
doing an LE passive scan. When the duplicate filter is enabled, some
controllers consider packets with the same address but different RSSIs
as duplicate thus not reporting to the host, which makes userspace not
able to tell if a peer is in range or not.
