I can possibly go and have a look on Tuesday though I have never done BT on FreeBSD I have to admit. Is there a good list of things to run to reproduce this, or is it just loading the kernel module?
Comment 3 Alexander Sieg 2019-04-13 15:12:47 UTC
Just loading the kernel module will produce the error. And `service bluetooth start ubt0` will provide the same error.
Comment 4 Bjoern A. Zeeb freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-04-15 22:17:35 UTC
Ok, confirmed; I'll go and have a look if no one else beats me to it (in which case please take the PR from me again).

Comment 5 Bjoern A. Zeeb freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-04-21 22:34:11 UTC
It seems the device needs a bit of extra driver to handle separate firmware.
Reset the bug to bugs@ as I am not sure if bluetooth people watch on wireless.

Some support from Intel on docs or a Dual/BSD Licensed source would help a lot here.

> ubt0: <vendor 0x8087 product 0x0a2b, class 224/1, rev 2.00/0.10, addr 4>
This device requires firmware downloader to work.
I use this one: https://github.com/wulf7/iwmbt-firmware

Note: Execution of /etc/rc.d/bluetooth locks up bluetooth adapter hardly if firmware has not been downloaded yet and full power cycle is required to restore its state.
That means that downloader *must* always be run before first /etc/rc.d/bluetooth script execution.

block ng_ubt attachment if operational firmware is not downloaded yet

Safety belt to reduce chances of BT adapter lockup.
Not strictly necessary to download the firmware.

Hi Vladimir,

I tried your code on Asus Zenbook 14 UX410UFR. After 'make install' and reboot:

ubt0 on uhub0
ubt0: <vendor 0x8087 product 0x0a2b, class 224/1, rev 2.00/0.10, addr 2> on usbus0

[root@pers:/root]# iwmbtfw

Firmware downloading failed

And there is no ubt0 device. Am I missing something obvious?

(In reply to Nikola Lečić from comment #8)
> Am I missing something obvious?
It is tricky to run downloader ATM due to bug in ng_ubt.c (it unconditionally starts SCO transfer that kills an BT adaptor)

Please try:

1. Comment out following lines in /etc/devd.conf:

# When a USB Bluetooth dongle appears, activate it
attach 100 {
        device-name "ubt[0-9]+";
        action "service bluetooth quietstart $device-name";
};

2. Do a full power off/on cycle. Just reboot is not enough to restore BT-adaptor!!!

3. # iwmbtfw

4. # service bluetooth start ubt0

Thanks; this is what I got:

ng_ubt is netgraph device, so no /dev/ubt0 should appear

Properly initialized bt device looks like:

It looks initialized. So try 

# hccontrol Inquiry

and so on to start. bluetooth-config is worth a try too but it never works for me :-(

Great, mouse paired, works as expected. After reboot and manual starting bluetooth, everything works again.

Intel Wireless 8265 is a dual BT/WiFi combo. Lines above are related to WiFi part of it. To check BT part you should successfully execute any bluetooth command like 
`hccontrol Inquiry` or just make your BT device working.

> What needs to be done to get it committed?
It was delayed slightly due to one (hopefully, fixed) minor bug and parallel work on packaging of the bluetooth utilities and now is on the way to be committed:

Other than that, one minor improvement:

- Add pkg-descr: WWW: https://packages.debian.org/firmware-iwlwifi (in addition to but prior to the existing WWW: URL) as this is the source of the firmware

I am not a copyright lawyer and I don't know all the steps required to include firmwares into the base system legally. That is why I decided to ship them separately.

I wouldn't object if someone would go this way and would take required permissions.
