I have the need to set up an RFCOMM serial port profile over bluetooth.
I see the rfcomm_sppd tool, but that connects to another remote
bluetooth device's serial port profile. What I need, is to offer a
serial port profile to bluetooth clients, and have a /dev/tty* entry to
talk with.
Is it implemented already? If it is, please point me in the right
direction (man pages?) If it isn't how much work is it, and would it be
complicated for a novice to do?
no, offering serial port service is not implemented yet. no, it is not
much work to implement it.
you can use rfcomm_pppd (server mode) as an example of how to offer a
services. you will need to register serial port service with sdpd(8)
after you open rfcomm socket (you will be advertising rfcomm channel
with sdpd(8)).
From what limited knowledge I have, your quickest path seems to be to
hack /usr/src/usr.sbin/bluetooth/rfcomm_pppd/rfcomm_pppd.c somewhere
inside
384:exec_ppp(int s, char *unit, char *label)
to start whatever is that you want talking to your clients instead of
'pppd'.
actually, there is no need to execute any external program. there are
two options:
1) use pty(4)
2) use nmdm(4)
thanks,
