The name argument passed to bt_gethostbyname() should point to a NUL-terminated hostname. The addr argument passed to bt_gethostbyaddr() should point to an address which is len bytes long, in binary form (i.e., not a Bluetooth BD_ADDR in human readable ASCII form). The type argument specifies the address family of this address and must be set to AF_BLUETOOTH. The structure returned contains the information obtained from a line in /etc/bluetooth/hosts file. The bt_sethostent() function controls whether /etc/bluetooth/hosts file should stay open after each call to bt_gethostbyname() or bt_gethostbyaddr(). If the stayopen flag is non-zero, the file will not be closed. The bt_endhostent() function closes the /etc/bluetooth/hosts file. The bt_getprotoent(), bt_getprotobyname() and bt_getprotobynumber() func- tions each return a pointer to an object with the protoent structure de- scribing a Bluetooth Protocol Service Multiplexor referenced by name or number, respectively. The name argument passed to bt_getprotobyname() should point to a NUL-terminated Bluetooth Protocol Service Multiplexor name. The proto argument passed to bt_getprotobynumber() should have numeric value of the desired Bluetooth Protocol Service Multiplexor. The structure returned contains the information obtained from a line in /etc/bluetooth/protocols file. The bt_setprotoent() function controls whether /etc/bluetooth/protocols file should stay open after each call to bt_getprotobyname() or bt_getprotobynumber(). If the stayopen flag is non-zero, the file will not be closed. The bt_endprotoent() function closes the /etc/bluetooth/protocols file. The bt_aton() routine interprets the specified character string as a Bluetooth address, placing the address into the structure provided. It returns 1 if the string was successfully interpreted, or 0 if the string is invalid. The routine bt_ntoa() takes a Bluetooth address and places an ASCII string representing the address into the buffer provided. It is up to the caller to ensure that provided buffer has enough space. If no buffer was provided then internal static buffer will be used. The bt_devaddr() function interprets the specified devname string as the address or device name of a Bluetooth device on the local system, and places the device address in the provided bdaddr, if any. The function returns 1 if the string was successfully interpreted, or 0 if the string did not match any local device. The bt_devname() function takes a Blue- tooth device address and copies the local device name associated with that address into the buffer provided, if any. Caller must ensure that provided buffer is at least HCI_DEVNAME_SIZE characters in size. The function returns 1 when the device was found, otherwise 0. The bt_devinfo() function populates provided bt_devinfo structure with the information about given Bluetooth device. The caller is expected to pass Bluetooth device name in the devname field of the passed bt_devinfo structure. The function returns 0 when successful, otherwise -1. The bt_devinfo structure is defined as follows struct bt_devinfo { char devname[HCI_DEVNAME_SIZE]; uint32_t state; bdaddr_t bdaddr; uint16_t _reserved0; uint8_t features[HCI_DEVFEATURES_SIZE]; /* buffer info */ uint16_t _reserved1; uint16_t cmd_free; uint16_t sco_size; uint16_t sco_pkts; uint16_t sco_free; uint16_t acl_size; uint16_t acl_pkts; uint16_t acl_free; /* stats */ uint32_t cmd_sent; uint32_t evnt_recv; uint32_t acl_recv; uint32_t acl_sent; uint32_t sco_recv; uint32_t sco_sent; uint32_t bytes_recv; uint32_t bytes_sent; /* misc/specific */ uint16_t link_policy_info; uint16_t packet_type_info; uint16_t role_switch_info; uint16_t debug; uint8_t _padding[20]; }; The bt_devenum() function enumerates Bluetooth devices present in the system. For every device found, the function will call provided cb call- back function which should be of bt_devenum_cb_t type. The callback function is passed a HCI socket s, fully populated bt_devinfo structure di and arg argument provided to the bt_devenum(). The callback function can stop enumeration by returning a value that is greater than zero. The function returns number of successfully enumerated devices, or -1 if an error occurred. The bt_devopen() function opens a Bluetooth device with the given devname and returns a connected and bound HCI socket handle. The function re- turns -1 if an error has occurred. The bt_devclose() closes the passed HCI socket handle s, previously ob- tained with bt_devopen(3). The bt_devsend() function sends a Bluetooth HCI command with the given opcode to the provided socket s, previously obtained with bt_devopen(3). The opcode parameter is exppected to be in the host byte order. The param and plen parameters specify command parameters. The bt_devsend() function does not modify the HCI filter on the provided socket s. The function returns 0 on success, or -1 if an error occurred. The bt_devrecv() function receives one Bluetooth HCI packet from the socket s, previously obtained with bt_devopen(3). The packet is placed into the provided buffer buf of size size. The to parameter specifies receive timeout in seconds. Infinite timeout can be specified by passing negative value in the to parameter. The bt_devrecv() function does not modify the HCI filter on the provided socket s. The function returns to- tal number of bytes recevied, or -1 if an error occurred. The bt_devreq() function makes a Bluetooth HCI request to the socket s, previously obtained with bt_devopen(3). The function will send the spec- ified command and will wait for the specified event, or timeout to sec- onds to occur. The bt_devreq structure is defined as follows struct bt_devreq { uint16_t opcode; uint8_t event; void *cparam; size_t clen; void *rparam; size_t rlen; }; The opcode field specifies the command and is expected to be in the host byte order. The cparam and clen fields specify command parameters data and command parameters data size respectively. The event field specifies which Bluetooth HCI event ID the function should wait for, otherwise it should be set to zero. The HCI Command Complete and Command Status events are enabled by default. The rparam and rlen parameters specify buffer and buffer size respectively where return parameters should be placed. The bt_devreq() function temporarily modifies filter on the pro- vided HCI socket s. The function returns 0 on success, or -1 if an error occurred. The bt_devfilter() controls the local HCI filter associated with the socket s, previously obtained with bt_devopen(3). Filtering can be done on packet types, i.e. ACL, SCO or HCI, command and event packets, and, in addition, on HCI event IDs. Before applying the new filter (if pro- vided) the function will try to obtain the current filter from the socket s and place it into the old parameter (if provided). The function re- turns 0 on success, or -1 if an error occurred. The bt_devfilter_pkt_set(), bt_devfilter_pkt_clr() and bt_devfilter_pkt_tst() functions can be used to modify and test the HCI filter filter. The type parameter specifies HCI packet type. The bt_devfilter_evt_set(), bt_devfilter_evt_clr() and bt_devfilter_evt_tst() functions can be used to modify and test the HCI event filter filter. The event parameter specifies HCI event ID. The bt_devinquiry() function performs Bluetooth inquiry. The devname pa- rameter specifies which local Bluetooth device should perform an inquiry. If not secified, i.e. NULL, then first available device will be used. The length parameters specifies the total length of an inquiry in sec- onds. If not specified, i.e. 0, default value will be used. The num_rsp parameter specifies the number of responses that can be received before the inquiry is halted. If not specified, i.e. 0, default value will be used. The ii parameter specifies where to place inquiry results. On success, the function will return total number of inquiry results, will allocate, using calloc(3), buffer to store all the inquiry results and will return pointer to the allocated buffer in the ii parameter. It is up to the caller of the function to dispose of the buffer using free(3) call. The function returns -1 if an error has occurred. The bt_devinquiry structure is defined as follows struct bt_devinquiry { bdaddr_t bdaddr; uint8_t pscan_rep_mode; uint8_t pscan_period_mode; uint8_t dev_class[3]; uint16_t clock_offset; int8_t rssi; uint8_t data[240]; }; The bdaddr_same(), bdaddr_any() and bdaddr_copy() are handy shorthand Bluetooth address utility functions. The bdaddr_same() function will test if two provided BD_ADDRs are the same. The bdaddr_any() function will test if provided BD_ADDR is ANY BD_ADDR. The bdaddr_copy() function will copy provided src BD_ADDR into provided dst BD_ADDR. FILES /etc/bluetooth/hosts /etc/bluetooth/protocols EXAMPLES Print out the hostname associated with a specific BD_ADDR: const char *bdstr = "00:01:02:03:04:05"; bdaddr_t bd; struct hostent *hp; if (!bt_aton(bdstr, &bd)) errx(1, "can't parse BD_ADDR %s", bdstr); if ((hp = bt_gethostbyaddr((const char *)&bd, sizeof(bd), AF_BLUETOOTH)) == NULL) errx(1, "no name associated with %s", bdstr); printf("name associated with %s is %s\n", bdstr, hp->h_name); DIAGNOSTICS Error return status from bt_gethostent(), bt_gethostbyname() and bt_gethostbyaddr() is indicated by return of a NULL pointer. The exter- nal integer h_errno may then be checked to see whether this is a tempo- rary failure or an invalid or unknown host. The routine herror(3) can be used to print an error message describing the failure. If its argument string is non-NULL, it is printed, followed by a colon and a space. The error message is printed with a trailing newline. The variable h_errno can have the following values: HOST_NOT_FOUND No such host is known. NO_RECOVERY Some unexpected server failure was encountered. This is a non-recoverable error. The bt_getprotoent(), bt_getprotobyname() and bt_getprotobynumber() re- turn NULL on EOF or error.

The bt_sethostent() function opens and/or rewinds the /etc/bluetooth/hosts file. The bt_getprotoent() function reads the next line of /etc/bluetooth/protocols, opening the file if necessary. The bt_setprotoent() function opens and/or rewinds the /etc/bluetooth/protocols file. The bt_devenum() function enumerates up to HCI_DEVMAX Bluetooth devices. During enumeration the bt_devenum() function uses the same HCI socket. The function guarantees that the socket, passed to the callback function, will be bound and connected to the Bluetooth device being enumerated.
