2.6.19 bluetooth PPP (rfcomm) regression

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Testing from Bill Kenworthy indicates that commit 0a85b964e141a4b8db6eaf500ceace12f8f52f93 introduces a ppp-over-bluetooth regression.

dba=00:07:E0:06:AC:7A)
Dec 28 21:57:37 rattus rfcomm_tty_ioctl: TIOCGSERIAL is not supported
Dec 28 21:57:37 rattus dund[23081]: New connection from 00:07:E0:06:AC:7A
Dec 28 21:57:37 rattus pppd[23094]: pppd 2.4.4 started by root, uid 0
Dec 28 21:57:37 rattus pppd[23094]: Couldn't get channel number: Input/output
error
Dec 28 21:57:37 rattus pppd[23094]: Exit.

diffing net/bluetooth/rfcomm/tty.c between the two kernels shows

2.6.19-r2: tty_register_device(rfcomm_tty_driver, dev->id,
rfcomm_get_device(dev));

and

2.16.18-r2: tty_register_device(rfcomm_tty_driver, dev->id, NULL);

Changing this line to match the earlier kernel (using NULL) removes the error
and ppp connects as it should.



I see this has already been reported by Johannes Hoerhan on the bluez list. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.bluez.devel/10148/focus=10232

I don't really see how this could be a udev issue, since it's obviously so intricately linked to that line of code.

How can we help diagnose this further - any debugging flags we should turn on?

Thanks,
Daniel
