[bcm4325 for example has bt, fm and wlan]. I just wanted to know, from the user-space the hci0 socket interface allows me to concurrently use the uart from several applications, but is there a way in kernel to do the same ? [say hci_h4 is also used by the fm core to understand some vendor specific commands ?] or in an usb case - the fm has int endpoint for control data of fm [+ hci-event/cmd packets] and bulk for rds[+ acl] [assuming the audio data path - is isolated from all these ...] regards, Pavan See the Web's breaking stories, chosen by people like you.
