I gave a try to to this patch using your test tool [1] and very old BT
keyboard. I don't have anything else ATM to test with. Is there some BT hid
devices which support setting and getting features?

A keyboard is the only BT device I've used which has feature reports.

Shouldn't HIDIOCSFEATURE's bt version have similar wait as HIDIOCGFEATURE to
get report status back from the device? or is there even any status coming back
in successful case? Sorry I'm a newbie with HID and trying to understand how
this should work.

Now it just returns num of send bytes even if the remote device returned some
error. Which one is the expected behavior?

I made it function the same as the existing hidp_output_raw_report(). Nothing in net/bluetooth/hidp/core.c is acked at all. I'm not sure of the reasons.

Jiri, Marcel, any ideas?

Other problem is that Get report is getting now handshake from set report.



Yeah, that makes sense. I hadn't considered the set_report failing. In that case, I guess it means we _must_ wait for an ack for sent packets.

Anyone else agree or disagree?

Alan.
