Overview
========
This document describes the format of data used for communicating with
the kernel using a so-called Bluetooth Management sockets. These sockets
are available starting with Linux kernel version 3.4
The following kernel versions introduced new commands, new events or
important fixes to the Bluetooth Management API:
Linux kernel v3.4 Version 1.0
Linux kernel v3.5 Version 1.1
Linux kernel v3.7 Version 1.2
Linux kernel v3.9 Version 1.3
Linux kernel v3.13 Version 1.4
Linux kernel v3.15 Version 1.5
Linux kernel v3.16 Version 1.6
Linux kernel v3.17 Version 1.7
Linux kernel v3.19 Version 1.8 (not yet released)
Version 1.1 introduces Set Device ID command.
Version 1.2 introduces Passkey Notify event.
Version 1.3 does not introduce any new command or event.
Version 1.4 introduces Set Advertising, Set BR/EDR, Set Static Address
and Set Scan Parameters commands. The existing Set Discoverable command
gained an extra setting for limited discoverable mode. The device name
is now provided in the scan response data for Low Energy.
Version 1.5 introduces Set Secure Connections, Set Debug Keys, Set Privacy
and Load Identity Resolving Keys commands. It also introduces New Identity
Resolving Key and New Signature Resolving Key events.
Version 1.6 introduces Get Connection Information command. It also updates
the Device Found event to combine advertising data and scan response data
into a single event.
Version 1.7 introduces Get Clock Information, Add Device, Remove Device,
Load Connection Parameters, Read Unconfigured Index List, Read Controller
Configuration Information, Set External Configuration and Set Public Address
commands. It also introduces Device Added, Device Removed, New Connection
Parameter, Unconfigured Index Added, Unconfigured Index Removed and New
Configuration Options events. The existing Set Debug Keys command gained
an extra setting for enabling SSP debug mode.
Version 1.8 introduces new Long Term Key types for LE Secure Connection
feature.
Example
=======
The Bluetooth management sockets can be created by setting the hci_channel
member of struct sockaddr_hci to HCI_CHANNEL_CONTROL (3) when creating a
raw HCI socket. In C the needed code would look something like the following:
int mgmt_create(void)
{
struct sockaddr_hci addr;
int fd;
fd = socket(PF_BLUETOOTH, SOCK_RAW | SOCK_CLOEXEC | SOCK_NONBLOCK,
BTPROTO_HCI);
if (fd < 0)
return -errno;
memset(&addr, 0, sizeof(addr));
addr.hci_family = AF_BLUETOOTH;
addr.hci_dev = HCI_DEV_NONE;
addr.hci_channel = HCI_CHANNEL_CONTROL;
if (bind(fd, (struct sockaddr *) &addr, sizeof(addr)) < 0) {
int err = -errno;
close(fd);
return err;
}
return fd;
}
The process creating the mgmt socket is required to have the
CAP_NET_ADMIN capability (e.g. root would have this).
Packet Structures
=================
Commands:
0 4 8 12 16 22 24 28 31 35 39 43 47
+-------------------+-------------------+-------------------+
| Command Code | Controller Index | Parameter Length |
+-------------------+-------------------+-------------------+
| |
Events:
0 4 8 12 16 22 24 28 31 35 39 43 47
+-------------------+-------------------+-------------------+
| Event Code | Controller Index | Parameter Length |
+-------------------+-------------------+-------------------+
| |
All fields are in little-endian byte order (least significant byte first).
Controller Index can have a special value <non-controller> to indicate that
command or event is not related to any controller. Possible values:
<controller id> 0x0000 to 0xFFFE
<non-controller> 0xFFFF
2012-03-01 02:59:31 +08:00
Error Codes
===========
The following values have been defined for use with the Command Status
and Command Complete events:
0x00 Success
0x01 Unknown Command
0x02 Not Connected
0x03 Failed
0x04 Connect Failed
0x05 Authentication Failed
0x06 Not Paired
0x07 No Resources
0x08 Timeout
0x09 Already Connected
0x0A Busy
0x0B Rejected
0x0C Not Supported
0x0D Invalid Parameters
0x0E Disconnected
0x0F Not Powered
0x10 Cancelled
0x11 Invalid Index
2012-03-01 02:59:31 +08:00
As a general rule all commands generate the events as specified below,
however invalid lengths or unknown commands will always generate a
Command Status response (with Unknown Command or Invalid Parameters
status). Sending a command with an invalid Controller Index value will
also always generate a Command Status event with the Invalid Index
status code.
2012-03-01 02:59:31 +08:00
Read Management Version Information Command
===========================================
Command Code: 0x0001
Controller Index: <non-controller>
Command Parameters:
Return Parameters: Version (1 Octets)
Revision (2 Octets)
This command returns the Management version and revision.
Besides, being informational the information can be used to
determine whether certain behavior has changed or bugs fixed
when interacting with the kernel.
This command generates a Command Complete event on success or
a Command Status event on failure.
Read Management Supported Commands Command
==========================================
Command Code: 0x0002
Controller Index: <non-controller>
Command Parameters:
Return Parameters: Num_Of_Commands (2 Octets)
Num_Of_Events (2 Octets)
Command1 (2 Octets)
Command2 (2 Octets)
...
Event1 (2 Octets)
Event2 (2 Octets)
...
This command returns the list of supported Management commands
and events.
The commands Read Management Version Information and Read
management Supported Commands are not included in this list.
Both commands are always supported and mandatory.
The events Command Status and Command Complete are not included
in this list. Both are implicit and mandatory.
This command generates a Command Complete event on success or
a Command Status event on failure.
Read Controller Index List Command
==================================
Command Code: 0x0003
Controller Index: <non-controller>
Command Parameters:
2011-07-19 02:00:09 +08:00
Return Parameters: Num_Controllers (2 Octets)
Controller_Index[i] (2 Octets)
This command returns the list of currently known controllers.
Controllers added or removed after calling this command can be
monitored using the Index Added and Index Removed events.
This command generates a Command Complete event on success or
a Command Status event on failure.
Read Controller Information Command
===================================
Command Code: 0x0004
Controller Index: <controller id>
Command Parameters:
Return Parameters: Address (6 Octets)
Bluetooth_Version (1 Octet)
Manufacturer (2 Octets)
Supported_Settings (4 Octets)
Current_Settings (4 Octets)
Class_Of_Device (3 Octets)
Name (249 Octets)
Short_Name (11 Octets)
This command is used to retreive the current state and basic
information of a controller. It is typically used right after
getting the response to the Read Controller Index List command
or an Index Added event.
The Address parameter describes the controllers public address
and it can be expected that it is set. However in case of single
mode Low Energy only controllers it can be 00:00:00:00:00:00. To
power on the controller in this case, it is required to configure
a static address using Set Static Address command first.
If the public address is set, then it will be used as identity
address for the controller. If no public address is available,
then the configured static address will be used as identity
address.
If no short name is set the Short_Name parameter will be empty
(begin with a nul byte).
Current_Settings and Supported_Settings is a bitmask with
currently the following available bits:
2014-05-14 21:18:00 +08:00
0 Powered
1 Connectable
2 Fast Connectable

are 0x00, 0x01 and 0x02. All other values will return Invalid
Parameters.
Timeout is the time in seconds and is only meaningful when
Discoverable is set to 0x01 or 0x02. Providing a timeout
with 0x00 return Invalid Parameters. For 0x02, the timeout
value is required.
The value 0x00 disables discoverable, the value 0x01 enables
general discoverable and the value 0x02 enables limited
discoverable.
This command is only available for BR/EDR capable controllers
(e.g. not for single-mode LE ones). It will return Not Supported
otherwise.
This command can be used when the controller is not powered and
all settings will be programmed once powered.
However using a timeout when the controller is not powered will
return Not Powered error.

mode controllers. For BR/EDR is changes the page scan setting
and for LE controllers it changes the advertising type. For
dual mode controllers it affects both settings.
For LE capable controllers the connectable setting takes affect
when advertising is enabled (peripheral) or when directed
advertising events are received (central).
This command can be used when the controller is not powered and
all settings will be programmed once powered.
When switching connectable off, it will also switch off the
2012-02-21 21:25:59 +08:00
discoverable setting. Switching connectable back on will not
restore a previous discoverable. It will stay off and needs
to be manually switched back on.
2012-02-21 21:25:59 +08:00
When switching connectable off, it will expire a discoverable
setting with a timeout.
This setting does not affect known devices from Add Device

The Disconnect parameter tells the kernel whether to forcefully
disconnect any existing connections to the device. It should in
practice always be 1 except for some special GAP qualification
test-cases where a key removal without disconnecting is needed.
When unpairing a device its link key, long term key and if
provided identity resolving key will be purged.
For devices using resolvable random addresses where the identity
resolving key was available, after this command they will now no
longer be resolved. The device will essentially become private
again.

Set Static Address Command
==========================
Command Code: 0x002B
Controller Index: <controller id>
Command Parameters: Address (6 Octets)
Return Parameters:
This command allows for setting the static random address. It is
only supported on controllers with LE support. The static random
address is suppose to be valid for the lifetime of the
controller or at least until the next power cycle. To ensure
such behavior, setting of the address is limited to when the
controller is powered off.
The special BDADDR_ANY address (00:00:00:00:00:00) can be used
to disable the static address.
When a controller has a public address (which is required for
all dual-mode controllers), this address is not used. Only when
the controller information reports BDADDR_ANY (00:00:00:00:00:00),
it is required to configure a static address first.
If privacy mode is enabled and the controller is single mode
LE only without a public address, the static random address is
used as identity address.

This command is used to enable/disable Secure Connections
support for a controller. The allowed values for the
Secure_Connections command parameter are 0x00, 0x01 and 0x02.
All other values will return Invalid Parameters.
The value 0x00 disables Secure Connections, the value 0x01
enables Secure Connections and the value 0x02 enables Secure
Connections Only mode.
This command is only available for LE capable controllers as
well as controllers supporting the core specification version
4.1 or greater.

Controller Index: <controller id>
Command Parameters: Debug_Keys (1 Octet)
Return Parameters: Current_Settings (4 Octets)
2014-02-15 18:49:59 +08:00
This command is used to tell the kernel whether to accept the
usage of debug keys or not. The allowed values for this parameter
are 0x00, 0x01 and 0x02. All other values will return an Invalid
Parameters response.
With a value of 0x00 any generated debug key will be discarded
as soon as the connection terminates.
With a value of 0x01 generated debug keys will be kept and can
be used for future connections. However debug keys are always
marked as non persistent and should not be stored. This means
a reboot or changing the value back to 0x00 will delete them.
With a value of 0x02 generated debug keys will be kept and can
be used for future connections. This has the same affect as
with value 0x01. However in addition this value will also
enter the controller mode to generate debug keys for each
new pairing. Changing the value back to 0x01 or 0x00 will
disable the controller mode for generating debug keys.
This command generates a Command Complete event on success or
a Command Status event on failure.

Set Privacy Command
===================
Command Code: 0x002F
Controller Index: <controller id>
Command Parameters: Privacy (1 Octet)
Identity_Resolving_Key (16 Octets)
Return Parameters: Current_Settings (4 Octets)
This command is used to enable Low Energy Privacy feature using
resolvable private addresses.
The value 0x00 disables privacy mode, the values 0x01 and 0x02
enable privacy mode.
With value 0x01 the kernel will always use the privacy mode. This
means resolvable private address is used when the controller is
discoverable and also when pairing is initiated.
With value 0x02 the kernel will use privacy mode with resolvable
private address. In case the conroller is bondable and discoverable
the identity address is used. Also when pairing is initiated, the
connection will be established with the identity address.
Exposing the identity address when bondable and discoverable or
during initated pairing can be a privacy issue. For dual-mode
controllers this can be neglected since its public address will
be exposed over BR/EDR anyway. The benefit of exposing the
identity address for pairing purposes is that it makes matching
up devices with dual-mode topology during device discovery now
possible.
If the privacy value 0x02 is used, then also the GATT database
should expose the Privacy Characteristic so that remote devices
can determine if the privacy feature is in use or not.
When the controller has a public address (mandatory for dual-mode
controllers) it is used as identity address. In case the controller
is single mode LE only without a public address, it is required
to configure a static random andress first. The privacy mode can
only be enabled when an identity address is available.
The Identity_Resolving_Key is the local key assigned for the local
resolvable private address.

valid to add the device here, but all actions will be ignored
until the device is unblocked.
Devices added with Action 1 are allowed to connect even if the
connectable setting is off. This acts as list of known trusted
devices.
This command can be used when the controller is not powered and
all settings will be programmed once powered.
This command generates a Command Complete event on success
or failure.

Load Connection Parameters Command
==================================
Command Code: 0x0035
Controller Index: <controller id>
Command Parameters: Param_Count (2 Octets)
Param1 {
Address (6 Octets)
Address_Type (1 Octet)
Min_Connection_Interval (2 Octets)
Max_Connection_Interval (2 Octes)
Connection_Latency (2 Octets)
Supervision_Timeout (2 Octets)
}
Param2 { }
...
Return Parameters:
This command is used to load connection parameters from several
devices into kernel. Currently this is only supported on controllers
with Low Energy support.
Possible values for the Address_Type parameter:
0 Reserved (not in use)
1 LE Public
2 LE Random
The provided Address and Address_Type are the identity of
a device. So either its public address or static random address.
The Min_Connection_Interval, Max_Connection_Interval,
Connection_Latency and Supervision_Timeout parameters should
be configured as described in Core 4.1 spec, Vol 2, 7.8.12.
This command can be used when the controller is not powered.
This command generates a Command Complete event on success or
a Command Status event on failure.

Read Unconfigured Controller Index List Command
===============================================
Command Code: 0x0036
Controller Index: <non-controller>
Command Parameters:
Return Parameters: Num_Controllers (2 Octets)
Controller_Index[i] (2 Octets)
This command returns the list of currently unconfigured controllers.
Unconfigured controllers added after calling this command can be
monitored using the Unconfigured Index Added event.
An unconfigured controller can either move to a configured state
by indicating Unconfigured Index Removed event followed by an
Index Added event; or it can be removed from the system which
would be indicated by the Unconfigured Index Removed event.
Only controllers that require configuration will be listed with
this command. A controller that is fully configured will not
be listed even if it supports configuration changes.
This command generates a Command Complete event on success or
a Command Status event on failure.
Read Controller Configuration Information Command
=================================================
Command Code: 0x0037
Controller Index: <controller id>
Command Parameters:
Return Parameters: Manufacturer (2 Octets)
Supported_Options (4 Octets)
Missing_Options (4 Octets)
This command is used to retreive the supported configuration
options of a controller and the missing configuration options.
The missing options are required to be configured before the
controller is considered fully configured and ready for standard
operation. The command is typically used right after getting the
response to Read Unconfigured Controller Index List command or
Unconfigured Index Added event.
Supported_Options and Missing_Options is a bitmask with currently
the following available bits:
0 External configuration
1 Bluetooth public address configuration
It is valid to call this command on controllers that do not
require any configuration. It is possible that a fully configured
controller offers additional support for configuration.
For example a controller may contain a valid Bluetooth public
device address, but also allows to configure it from the host
stack. In this case the general support for configurations will
be indicated by the Controller Configuration settings. For
controllers where no configuration options are available that
setting option will not be present.
When all configurations have been completed and as a result the
Missing_Options mask would become empty, then the now ready
controller will be announced via Index Added event.
This command generates a Command Complete event on success or
a Command Status event on failure.
Possible errors: Invalid Parameters
Invalid Index
Set External Configuration Command
==================================
Command Code: 0x0038
Controller Index: <controller id>
Command Parameters: Configuration (1 Octet)
Return Parameters: Missing_Options (4 Octets)
This command allows to change external configuration option to
indicate that a controller is now configured or unconfigured.
The value 0x00 sets unconfigured state and the value 0x01 sets
configured state of the controller.
It is not mandatory that this configuration option is provided
by a controller. If it is provided, the configuration has to
happen externally using user channel operation or via vendor
specific methods.
Setting this option and when Missing_Options returns zero, this
means that the controller will switch to configured state and it
can be expected that it will be announced via Index Added event.
Wrongly configured controllers might still cause an error when
trying to power them via Set Powered commmand.
This command generates a Command Complete event on success or a
Command Status event on failure.
Possible errors: Rejected
Not Supported
Invalid Parameters
Invalid Index
Set Public Address Command
==========================
Command Code: 0x0039
Controller Index: <controller id>
Command Parameters: Address (6 Octets)
Return Parameters: Missing_Options (4 Octets)
This command allows configuration of public address. Since a vendor
specific procedure is required, this command might not be supported
by all controllers. Actually most likely only a handful embedded
controllers will offer support for this command.
When the support for Bluetooth public address configuration is
indicated in the supported options mask, then this command
can be used to configure the public address.
It is only possible to configure the public address when the
controller is powered off.
For an unconfigured controller and when Missing_Options returns
an empty mask, this means that a Index Added event for the now
fully configured controller can be expected.
For a fully configured controller, the current controller index
will become invalid and an Unconfigured Index Removed event will
be send. Once the address has been successfully changed an Index
Added event will be send. There is no guarantee that the controller
index stays the same.
All previous configured parameters and settings are lost when
this command succeeds. The controller has to be treated as new
one. Use this command for a fully configured controller only when
you really know what you are doing.
This command generates a Command Complete event on success or a
Command Status event on failure.
Possible errors: Rejected

Start Service Discovery Command
===============================
Command Code: 0x003a
Controller Index: <controller id>
Command Parameters: Address_Type (1 Octet)
RSSI_Threshold (1 Octet)
UUID_Count (1 Octet)
UUID[i] (16 Octets)
Return Parameters: Address_Type (1 Octet)
This command is used to start the process of discovering remote
devices with a specific UUID. A Device Found event will be sent
for each discovered device.
Possible values for the Address_Type parameter are a bit-wise or
of the following bits:
0 BR/EDR
1 LE Public
2 LE Random
By combining these e.g. the following values are possible:
1 BR/EDR
6 LE (public & random)
7 BR/EDR/LE (interleaved discovery)
The service discovery uses active scanning for Low Energy scanning
and will search for UUID in both advertising data and scan response
data.
Found devices that have a RSSI value smaller than RSSI_Threshold
are not reported via DeviceFound event. Setting a value of 127
will cause all devices to be reported.
The list of UUIDs identifies a logical OR. Only one of the UUIDs
have to match to cause a DeviceFound event. Providing an empty
list of UUIDs with Num_UUID set to 0 which means that DeviceFound
events are send out for all devices above the RSSI_Threshold.
In case RSSI_Threshold is set to 127 and UUID_Count is 0, then
this command behaves exactly the same as Start Discovery.
When the discovery procedure starts the Discovery event will
notify this similar to Start Discovery.
This command can only be used when the controller is powered.
This command generates a Command Complete event on success
or failure.

1 Legacy Pairing
2 Not Connectable
For the RSSI field a value of 127 indicates that the RSSI is
not available. That can happen with Bluetooth 1.1 and earlier
controllers or with bad radio conditions.
The Confirm name flag indicates that the kernel wants to know
whether user space knows the name for this device or not. If
this flag is set user space should respond to it using the
Confirm Name command.
The Legacy Pairing flag indicates that Legacy Pairing is likely
to occur when pairing with this device. An application could use
this information to optimize the pairing process by locally
pre-generating a PIN code and thereby eliminate the risk of
local input timeout when pairing. Note that there is a risk of
false-positives for this flag so user space should be able to
handle getting something else as a PIN Request when pairing.
The Not Connectable flag indicates that the device will not
accept any connections. This can be indicated by Low Energy
devices that are in broadcaster role.
Discovering Event
=================
Event Code: 0x0013

its keys have been removed from the kernel) using the Unpair
Device command.
Possible values for the Address_Type parameter:
0 BR/EDR
1 LE Public
2 LE Random
For devices using resolvable random addresses with a known
identity resolving key, the event paramters will contain
the identity. After receiving this event, the device will
become essentially private again.
The event will only be sent to Management sockets other than the
one through which the Unpair Device command was sent.
Passkey Notify Event
====================
Event Code: 0x0017
Controller Index: <controller id>
Event Parameters: Address (6 Octets)
Address_Type (1 Octet)
Passkey (4 Octets)

This event is used to request passkey notification to the user.
Unlike the other authentication events it does not need
responding to using any Management command.
Possible values for the Address_Type parameter:
0 BR/EDR
1 LE Public
2 LE Random
The Passkey parameter indicates the passkey to be shown to the
user whereas the Entered parameter indicates how many characters
the user has entered on the remote side.
New Identity Resolving Key Event
================================
Event Code: 0x0018
Controller Index: <controller id>
Event Parameters: Store_Hint (1 Octet)
Random_Address (6 Octets)
Key {
Address (6 Octets)
Address_Type (1 Octet)
Value (16 Octets)
}
This event indicates that a new identity resolving key has been
generated for a remote device.
The Store_Hint parameter indicates whether the host is expected
to store the key persistently or not.
The Random_Address provides the resolvable random address that
was resolved into an identity. A value of 00:00:00:00:00:00
indicates that the identity resolving key was provided for
a public address or static random address.
Once this event has been send for a resolvable random address,
all further events mapping this device will send out using the
identity address information.
This event also indicates that now the identity address should
be used for commands instead of the resolvable random address.
It is possible that some devices allow discovering via its
identity address, but after pairing using resolvable private
address only. In such a case Store_Hint will be 0x00 and the
Random_Address will indicate 00:00:00:00:00:00. For these devices,
the Privacy Characteristic of the remote GATT database should
be consulted to decide if the identity resolving key must be
stored persistently or not.
Devices using Set Privacy command with the option 0x02 would
be such type of device.
Possible values for the Address_Type parameter:
0 Reserved (not in use)
1 LE Public
2 LE Random
The provided Address and Address_Type are the identity of
a device. So either its public address or static random address.
New Signature Resolving Key Event
=================================
Event Code: 0x0019
Controller Index: <controller id>
Event Parameters: Store_Hint (1 Octet)
Key {
Address (6 Octets)
Address_Type (1 Octet)
Master (1 Octet)
Value (16 Octets)
}
This event indicates that a new signature resolving key has been
generated for either the master or slave device.
The Store_Hint parameter indicates whether the host is expected
to store the key persistently or not.
When the Master parameter is set to 0x01, then the signature
resolving key from the remote peer device is provided. It is
the key that is used for signature verification.
When the Master parameter is set to 0x00, then it is the local
signature resolving key that is used to sign data. The remote
peer device will be using it for signature verification.
The local signature resolving key will be generated with each
pairing request. Only after receiving this event with Master
parameter set to 0x00 it is possible to use ATT Signed Write
procedures.
Possible values for the Address_Type parameter:
0 Reserved (not in use)
1 LE Public
