Subject: Caching device name in different connectable state

I have a bluetooth beacon device that advertises a name depending on
its configuration (connectable or not).
Sadly, in Bluez, the first time it sees it while advertising its name,
it caches it which is nice for future discovery.
Except it doesn't because I don't want to see this name while it
advertises in non-connectable state as it is "not" the same device
anymore (sort of).
I guess what I'm asking is if we can make Device name aware of the
connectable state and only use it if it matches state when it was
cached.

See some btmon trace of what it looks like in both configurations:

Thank your Marcel for the clarification.

As Luiz mentioned previously though, as random static addresses can be
used by other devices, it may makes sense to avoid caching their name.
Would you agree?

yikes, this is super tricky. If the device uses the same address, then it is the same device. If it is not the same device, then it should use two different addresses (sort of a dual personality).

Please keep in mind that a lot of device identity is based around either the public address or the static random address. We even clarified that as identity address in the latest specification. The mode has nothing to do with it. It makes it even more complicated since a device can be in broadcaster and peripheral role at the same time. It is just a matter of instantiating a second link layer state machine. However even in that case my advise is two use two different addresses if they are independent.

Here's what says BLUETOOTH SPECIFICATION Version 4.2 [Vol 3, Part C],

The advertising data shall be formatted using the Advertising Data (AD) type
format as defined in [[Core Specification Supplement], Part A, Section 1.3. A
device in the broadcast mode shall not set the ‘LE General Discoverable Mode’
flag or the ‘LE Limited Discoverable Mode’ flag in the Flags AD Type as defined
in [Core Specification Supplement], Part A, Section 1.3.

This seems clear to me that discoverable flag shall not be used in
broadcaster mode.
Which improvements would you make to the CSS?

Maybe it is a good idea to file an issue to the CSS to mention that
discoverable flag shall not be used in broadcaster mode, or to clarify
that on the specification if that was not the intention. This has
caused already some confusion before and Im afraid it will continue if
we don't do something about it.

I'll see if I can update firmware to NOT use "LE General Discoverable
Mode" flag there as you're right, it shouldn't be set according to the
Bluetooth Spec for a device that simply broadcasts.

Not sure I understand the problem correctly but in case the device
changes for one reason or the other it shall change its identity
address, so the device is at fault here as it doesn't change its
address, what it should have happened is that it uses one random
static for beacon mode and another for connectable mode or even better
use rpa for connectable mode so it can be associate properly.

That said I guess we could deal a little bit better in regarding of
random static addresses, since they can be used by other devices
caching their name may not be a good idea so we should probably take a
similar approach as to other device settings that are not stored for
random address.

Btw, the only reason you are seeing this beacon is because it is
marked as discoverable which iirc is wrong since this flag only apply
for connectable peripherals, without this it won't show on regular
discovery, to make beacons visible Im proposing to include them only
if the application has set a filter so we don't clutter regular device
creation dialogs with beacons that cannot be paired.
