[Bug 654667] Re: Maverick bluetooth does not create pan0 network devices
** Description changed: Binary package hint: bluez pan0 is no longer created for bluetooth adaptors. This is a regression from lucid, where this worked with both the ubuntu kernel and the backported maverick (2.6.35.22) kernel. Expected: Boot the computer with bluetooth enabled and the following in /etc/network/interfaces auto pan0 iface pan0 inet static - address 10.69.42.1 - netmask 255.255.255.0 - network 10.69.42.0 - broadcast 10.69.42.255 - metric 69 - up echo 1 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward - up iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 10.69.42.0/24 -j MASQUERADE - down echo 0 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward - down iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -s 10.69.42.0/24 -j MASQUERADE + address 10.69.42.1 + netmask 255.255.255.0 + network 10.69.42.0 + broadcast 10.69.42.255 + metric 69 + up echo 1 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward + up iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 10.69.42.0/24 -j MASQUERADE + down echo 0 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward + down iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -s 10.69.42.0/24 -j MASQUERADE A device pan0 will be created. What actually happens: The device is not created, alas. Tested on two ia32 and one ppc machines. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/654667 Title: Maverick bluetooth does not create pan0 network devices -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 654667] Re: Maverick bluetooth does not create pan0 network devices
This is caused by the ioctl(HCIUNBLOCKADDR), i.e. bluetooth uses an ioctl that does not exist in production kernels, and then takes a fail path when the ioctl fails. If you build and install a pre-ioctl(HCIUNBLOCKADDR) version of bluez (i.e. 4.61, the (AFAIK) lucid version), then bluetooth networking works again. Please may we have an updated maverick version that does not reference the non-existent ioctl, or a kernel with the ioctl included. -jh -- Maverick bluetooth does not create pan0 network devices https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/654667 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Here's a trivial, naive set of patchs against 4.69-0ubuntu2 that fixes the problem (lightly tested in that pan0 is know created). -jh ** Attachment added: patch for missing ioctls https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/654667/+attachment/1718382/+files/fixbluez.dif -- Maverick bluetooth does not create pan0 network devices https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/654667 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Brian, Sorry to say that the patch does not appear to solve the problem -- I suspect the machine I tested had a device created by 4.61, which appears to be the only way I can get PAND working.

Some further info: With 4.61, the device capabilities are reported as (hciconfig -a): Class: 0x4a010c Service Classes: Networking, Capturing, Telephony with 4.69 or any newer upstream (4.76, 4.77 tried) Class: 0x48010c Service Classes: Capturing, Telephony A class mask of 0x20100 is required for PAN networking (afaik). -- Maverick bluetooth does not create pan0 network devices https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/654667 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
