User space should respond to this command either using the User Confirmation Reply or the User Confirmation Negative Reply command. User Passkey Request Event ========================== Event Code 0x0010 Controller Index: Event Parameters Address (6 Octets) Address_Type (1 Octet) This event is used to request a passkey from user space. The response to this event should either be the User Passkey Reply command or the User Passkey Negative Reply command. Authentication Failed Event =========================== Event Code 0x0011 Controller Index: Event Parameters Address (6 Octets) Address_Type (1 Octet) Status (1 Octet) This event indicates that there was an authentication failure with a remote device. Device Found Event ================== Event Code 0x0012 Controller Index Event Parameters Address (6 Octets) Address_Type (1 Octet) RSSI (1 Octet) Flags (4 Octets) EIR_Data_Length (2 Octets) EIR_Data (0-65535 Octets) This event indicates that a device was found during device discovery. Possible values for the Address_Type parameter: 0 BR/EDR 1 LE Public 2 LE Random The following bits are defined for the Flags parameter: 0 Confirm name 1 Legacy Pairing 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. Discovering Event ================= Event Code 0x0013 Controller Index Event Parameters Address_Type (1 Octet) Discovering (1 Octet) This event indicates that the controller has started discovering devices. This discovering state can come and go multiple times between a StartDiscover and a StopDiscovery command. The valid values for the Discovering parameter are 0x01 (enabled) and 0x00 (disabled). Device Blocked Event ==================== Event Code 0x0014 Controller Index Event Parameters Address (6 Octets) Address_Type (1 Octet) This event indicates that a device has been blocked using the Block Device command. The event will only be sent to Management sockets other than the one through which the command was sent. Device Unblocked Event ====================== Event Code 0x0015 Controller Index Event Parameters Address (6 Octets) Address_Type (1 Octet) This event indicates that a device has been unblocked using the Unblock Device command. The event will only be sent to Management sockets other than the one through which the command was sent. Device Unpaired Event ===================== Event Code 0x0016 Controller Index Event Parameters Address (6 Octets) Address_Type (1 Octet) This event indicates that a device has been unpaired (i.e. all its keys have been removed from the kernel) using the Unpair Device command. 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 Event Parameters Address (6 Octets) Address_Type (1 Octet) Passkey (4 Octets) Entered (1 Octet) 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. 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.
