Return-Path: From: Andre Guedes To: linux-bluetooth@vger.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH] Bluetooth: Filter duplicated reports in LE scan Date: Thu, 31 May 2012 20:01:41 -0300 Message-Id: <1338505301-25384-1-git-send-email-andre.guedes@openbossa.org> Sender: linux-bluetooth-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: This patch enables filtering duplicated advertising reports during LE scan. Some LE devices advertise using very small intervals generating lots of equal advertising report events to the host. Each event generates a mgmt_device_found event which is copied to userspace. Enabling this feature, duplicated advertising reports are filtered at controller's link layer. This way, the controller doesn't wake up the host to report duplicated advertising reports and, consequently, less data is copied to userspace.
