Bluetooth API

This is the full set of available Bluetooth APIs. It’s important to note that the set that will in practice be available for the application depends on the exact Kconfig options that have been chosen, since most of the Bluetooth functionality is build-time selectable. E.g. any connection-related APIs require CONFIG_BT_CONN and any BR/EDR (Bluetooth Classic) APIs require CONFIG_BT_BREDR.

Generic Access Profile (GAP)

enum [anonymous]::__anonymous22

Advertising options

Values:

BT_LE_ADV_OPT_NONE = 0

Convenience value when no options are specified.

BT_LE_ADV_OPT_CONNECTABLE = BIT(0)

Advertise as connectable. Type of advertising is determined by providing SCAN_RSP data and/or enabling local privacy support.

Don’t try to resume connectable advertising after a connection. This option is only meaningful when used together with BT_LE_ADV_OPT_CONNECTABLE. If set the advertising will be stopped when bt_le_adv_stop() is called or when an incoming (slave) connection happens. If this option is not set the stack will take care of keeping advertising enabled even as connections occur.

Parameters
  • storage: Callback struct.

int bt_storage_clear(const bt_addr_le_t *addr)

Clear all storage keys for a specific address

Return
0 on success or negative error value on failure.
Parameters
  • addr: Remote address, NULL for local storage or BT_ADDR_LE_ANY to clear all remote devices.

HCI Drivers

enum bt_hci_driver::bt_hci_driver_bus

Possible values for the ‘bus’ member of the bt_hci_driver struct

Values:

BT_HCI_DRIVER_BUS_VIRTUAL = 0
BT_HCI_DRIVER_BUS_USB = 1
BT_HCI_DRIVER_BUS_PCCARD = 2
BT_HCI_DRIVER_BUS_UART = 3
BT_HCI_DRIVER_BUS_RS232 = 4
BT_HCI_DRIVER_BUS_PCI = 5
BT_HCI_DRIVER_BUS_SDIO = 6
BT_HCI_DRIVER_BUS_SPI = 7
BT_HCI_DRIVER_BUS_I2C = 8
static bool bt_hci_evt_is_prio(u8_t evt)

Check if an HCI event is high priority or not.

Helper for the HCI driver to know which events are ok to be passed through the RX thread and which must be given to bt_recv_prio() from another context (e.g. ISR). If this function returns true it’s safe to pass the event through the RX thread, however if it returns false then this risks a deadlock.

Return
true if the event can be processed in the RX thread, false if it cannot.
Parameters
  • evt: HCI event code.

int bt_recv(struct net_buf *buf)

Receive data from the controller/HCI driver.

This is the main function through which the HCI driver provides the host with data from the controller. The buffer needs to have its type set with the help of bt_buf_set_type() before calling this API. This API should not be used for so-called high priority HCI events, which should instead be delivered to the host stack through bt_recv_prio().

Return
0 on success or negative error number on failure.
Parameters
  • buf: Network buffer containing data from the controller.

int bt_recv_prio(struct net_buf *buf)

Receive high priority data from the controller/HCI driver.

This is the same as bt_recv(), except that it should be used for so-called high priority HCI events. There’s a separate bt_hci_evt_is_prio() helper that can be used to identify which events are high priority.

As with bt_recv(), the buffer needs to have its type set with the help of bt_buf_set_type() before calling this API. The only exception is so called high priority HCI events which should be delivered to the host stack through bt_recv_prio() instead.

Return
0 on success or negative error number on failure.
Parameters
  • buf: Network buffer containing data from the controller.

int bt_hci_driver_register(const struct bt_hci_driver *drv)

Register a new HCI driver to the Bluetooth stack.

This needs to be called before any application code runs. The bt_enable() API will fail if there is no driver registered.

Return
0 on success or negative error number on failure.
Parameters

struct bt_hci_driver
#include <hci_driver.h>

Abstraction which represents the HCI transport to the controller.

This struct is used to represent the HCI transport to the Bluetooth controller.

HCI RAW channel

HCI RAW channel API is intended to expose HCI interface to the remote entity. The local Bluetooth controller gets owned by the remote entity and host Bluetooth stack is not used. RAW API provides direct access to packets which are sent and received by the Bluetooth HCI driver.

int bt_send(struct net_buf *buf)

Send packet to the Bluetooth controller.

Send packet to the Bluetooth controller. Caller needs to implement netbuf pool.

Return
Zero on success or (negative) error code otherwise.
Parameters
  • buf: netbuf packet to be send

int bt_enable_raw(struct k_fifo *rx_queue)

Enable Bluetooth RAW channel.

Enable Bluetooth RAW HCI channel.

Return
Zero on success or (negative) error code otherwise.
Parameters
  • rx_queue: netbuf queue where HCI packets received from the Bluetooth controller are to be queued. The queue is defined in the caller while the available buffers pools are handled in the stack.
