Return-Path: From: anderson.briglia@openbossa.org To: linux-bluetooth@vger.kernel.org Cc: Anderson Briglia Subject: [PATCH 0/7] RSSI Monitor Date: Tue, 9 Aug 2011 16:29:35 -0400 Message-Id: <4e4198be.0750640a.58f6.0ebd@mx.google.com> In-Reply-To: References: Sender: linux-bluetooth-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: From: Anderson Briglia This series is about RSSI monitoring since controllers do not have a specific command for this and we need it for Proximity Profile, at least. The patches implement a mechanism to set threshold levels in order to send alerts to userspace when a RSSI value reaches one of the configured thresholds. Management Interface contains a list of RSSI Monitors. Elements are inserted or deleted from this list using two new Management commands: Enable and Disable RSSI Monitor. A timer was added to do HCI Read RSSI requests to the controller and get RSSI values updated. If there is monitored connection (eg.: RSSI Monitor list size > 0), the timer is reseted after two seconds and the RSSI for each monitored conn is updated. Using the RSSI value, a Management Event is sent if one of the thresholds were reached and the alert is different from the last one sent. Userspace is responsible to add and remove RSSI Monitors. Each monitor must have low and high thresholds values for RSSI. A RSSI Monitor is disabled when the connection is no longer available or the userspace sends a command to remove it. If there is no RSSI Monitor remaining in the list, the RSSI Read polling timer is removed. This series is dependent of Andre Guedes discovery procedure patches, available here: git://github.com/aguedes/linux-2.6.git branch discovery This series is also the kernel side of this one: http://marc.info/?l=linux-bluetooth&m=131111375130918&w=2 Main changes since previous RFC: * Improvements in some functions logic. * Moved RSSI monitors list from Management to struct hci_dev.
