hi all 

I am facing a big problem with hci layer process. I have developed a platform
and http wraper for bluetooth services using bluez.  I am searching all device
present in vicinity by using hci.c function 'hci_scan()'. later for each
number(BDADDR) i am searching its name by hci_read_remote_name(). Most of the
time I am getting right name(i.e. what ever name i am giving to my devices ) But
some time name get swaped with some one. Lisk in my case my mobile name was
SHARK and my Machine name was VIKAS [0], VIKAS[1], my friends mobile was GOLD,
SILVER. but when I had done scan name it returned me my mobile,s name as
VIKAS[1]. I am surprise why this happened.

Is there any problem with present bluez stack I am using
bluez-bluefw-1.0-6
bluez-pin-0.23-3
bluez-hcidump-1.11-1
bluez-libs-2.10-2
bluez-utils-2.10-2.1
on redhat 4.0 Enterprise Edition
with kernel 2.6.9-5.EL i386
int getScanName(bdaddr_t *device_bt,char * device_name,bdaddr_t *dongle_bt)
{
        if((s = GetScanSock(dongle_bt)) < 0)    // this will connect to local dongle
        {
                ERR_LOG(ERR,"Unable to open socket");
                return -s;
        }
        if(hci_read_remote_name(s, device_bt,sizeof(device_name),device_name,0) < 0)
        {
                ERR_LOG(DBG,"No Name found");
                close(s);
                return -NOTFOUND;
        }
        ERR_LOG(DBG,"Name of Device hci scan  [%s] DeviceBT
[%s]",device_name,device_bt);
        close(s);
        return 0;
}
this function get called for each device found in scan.


I am in deep trouble to know what is problem with this.

Please help
