.Sh NAME
.Nm ng_l2cap
.Nd Netgraph node type that implements Bluetooth Logical Link Control and
Adaptation Protocol (L2CAP)
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.In sys/types.h
.In netgraph/bluetooth/include/ng_hci.h
.In netgraph/bluetooth/include/ng_l2cap.h
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm l2cap
node type is a Netgraph node type that implements Bluetooth Logical Link
Control and Adaptation Protocol as per chapter D of the Bluetooth Specification
Book v1.1.
.Pp
L2CAP provides connection-oriented and connectionless data services to upper
layer protocols with protocol multiplexing capability, segmentation and
reassembly operation, and group abstractions.
L2CAP permits higher level
protocols and applications to transmit and receive L2CAP data packets up to
64 kilobytes in length.
.Ss L2CAP Assumptions
.Bl -enum -offset indent
.It
The ACL link between two units is set up.
The Baseband provides orderly
delivery of data packets, although there might be individual packet corruption
and duplicates.
No more than one ACL link exists between any two devices.
.It
The Baseband always provides the impression of full-duplex communication
channels.
This does not imply that all L2CAP communications are bi-directional.
Multicasts and unidirectional traffic (e.g., video) do not require duplex
channels.
.It
L2CAP provides a reliable channel using the mechanisms available at the
Baseband layer.
The Baseband always performs data integrity checks when
requested and resends data until it has been successfully acknowledged or
a timeout occurs.
As acknowledgements may be lost, timeouts may
occur even after the data has been successfully sent.
.El
.Sh L2CAP GENERAL OPERATION
The Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol (L2CAP) is based around the
concept of
.Dq channels .
Each channel is bound to a single protocol in a many-to-one fashion.
Multiple
channels can be bound to the same protocol, but a channel cannot be bound to
multiple protocols.
Each L2CAP packet received on a channel is directed to
the appropriate higher level protocol.
.Pp
Each one of the end-points of an L2CAP channel is referred to by a channel
identifier.
Channel identifiers (CIDs) are local names representing a logical
channel end-point on the device.
Identifiers from 0x0001 to 0x003F are reserved
for specific L2CAP functions.
The null identifier (0x0000) is defined as an
illegal identifier and must never be used as a destination end-point.
All L2CAP signalling commands are sent to CID 0x0001.
CID 0x0002 is reserved for group-oriented channel.
The same CID must not be reused as a local L2CAP
channel endpoint for multiple simultaneous L2CAP channels between a local
device and some remote device.
.Pp
CID assignment is relative to a particular device and a device can assign CIDs
independently from other devices.
Thus, even if the same CID value has been
assigned to (remote) channel endpoints by several remote devices connected
to a single local device, the local device can still uniquely associate each
remote CID with a different device.
.Ss Channel Operational States
.Bl -tag -width indent
.It Dv NG_L2CAP_CLOSED
In this state, there is no channel associated with this CID.
This is the only
state when a link level connection (Baseband) may not exist.
Link disconnection
forces all other states into the
.Dv NG_L2CAP_CLOSED
state.
.It Dv NG_L2CAP_W4_L2CAP_CON_RSP
In this state, the CID represents a local end-point and an L2CAP Connect
Request message has been sent referencing this endpoint and it is now waiting
for the corresponding L2CAP Connect Response message.
.It Dv NG_L2CAP_W4_L2CA_CON_RSP
In this state, the remote end-point exists and an L2CAP Connect Request has
been received by the local L2CAP entity.
An L2CA Connect Indication has been
sent to the upper layer and the part of the local L2CAP entity processing the
received L2CAP Connect Request waits for the corresponding response.
The response may require a security check to be performed.
.It Dv NG_L2CAP_CONFIG
In this state, the connection has been established but both sides are still
negotiating the channel parameters.
The Configuration state may also be
entered when the channel parameters are being renegotiated.
Prior to entering the
.Dv NG_L2CAP_CONFIG
state, all outgoing data traffic is suspended since
the traffic parameters of the data traffic are to be renegotiated.
Incoming
data traffic is accepted until the remote channel endpoint has entered
the
.Dv NG_L2CAP_CONFIG
state.
In the
.Dv NG_L2CAP_CONFIG
state, both sides will issue
L2CAP Configuration Request messages if only defaults are being used, a null
message will be sent.
If a large amount of parameters need to be negotiated,
multiple messages will be sent to avoid any MTU limitations and negotiate
incrementally.
Moving from the
.Dv NG_L2CAP_CONFIG
state to the
.Dv NG_L2CAP_OPEN
state requires both sides to be ready.
An L2CAP entity is ready when it has received
a positive response to its final request and it has positively responded to
the final request from the remote device.
.It Dv NG_L2CAP_OPEN
In this state, the connection has been established and configured, and data
flow may proceed.
.It Dv NG_L2CAP_W4_L2CAP_DISCON_RSP
In this state, the connection is shutting down and an L2CAP Disconnect Request
message has been sent.
This state is now waiting for the corresponding response.
.It Dv NG_L2CAP_W4_L2CA_DISCON_RSP
In this state, the connection on the remote endpoint is shutting down and an
L2CAP Disconnect Request message has been received.
An L2CA Disconnect
Indication has been sent to the upper layer to notify the owner of the CID
that the remote endpoint is being closed.
This state is now waiting for the
corresponding response from the upper layer before responding to the remote
endpoint.
.El
.Ss Protocol Multiplexing
L2CAP supports protocol multiplexing because the Baseband Protocol does not
support any
.Dq type
field identifying the higher layer protocol being multiplexed above it.
L2CAP is able to distinguish between upper layer protocols such as the Service
Discovery Protocol, RFCOMM and Telephony Control.
.Ss Segmentation and Reassembly
The data packets defined by the Baseband Protocol are limited in size.
Large
L2CAP packets must be segmented into multiple smaller Baseband packets prior
to their transmission over the air.
Similarly, multiple received Baseband
packets may be reassembled into a single larger L2CAP packet.
.Ss Quality of Service
The L2CAP connection establishment process allows the exchange of information
regarding the quality of service (QoS) expected between two Bluetooth units.
.Ss Groups
The Baseband Protocol supports the concept of a piconet, a group of devices
synchronously hopping together using the same clock.
The L2CAP group
abstraction permits implementations to efficiently map protocol groups on to
piconets.
.Pp
The following features are outside the scope of L2CAP responsibilities:
.Bl -dash -offset indent
.It
L2CAP does not transport audio designated for SCO links.
.It
L2CAP does not enforce a reliable channel or ensure data integrity,
that is, L2CAP performs no retransmissions or checksum calculations.
.It
L2CAP does not support a reliable multicast channel.
.It
L2CAP does not support the concept of a global group name.
.El
.Sh HOOKS
This node type supports the following hooks:
.Pp
.Bl -tag -width indent
.It Dv hci
Bluetooth Host Controller Interface downstream hook.
.It Dv l2c
Upper layer protocol upstream hook.
Usually the Bluetooth L2CAP socket layer is connected to the hook.
.It Dv ctl
Control hook.
Usually the Bluetooth raw L2CAP sockets layer is connected to the hook.
.El
.Sh INTERFACE TO THE UPPER LAYER PROTOCOLS (L2CA CONTROL MESSAGES)
Bluetooth specification says that L2CA request must block until response
is ready.
L2CAP node uses
.Va token
field from Netgraph message header to match L2CA request and response.
The upper layer protocol must populate
.Va token .
L2CAP node will queue request and start processing.
Later, when response is
ready or timeout has occurred, L2CAP node will create new Netgraph message, set
.Va token
and
.Dv NFG_RESP
flag and send message to the upper layer.
Note that L2CA indication messages
will not populate
.Va token
and will not set
.Dv NGF_RESP
flag.
There is no reason for this, because they are just notifications and do
not require acknowledgment.
.Bl -tag -width indent
.It Dv NGM_L2CAP_L2CA_CON

if not provided by the remote device.
.It Dv NGM_L2CAP_L2CA_CFG_RSP
Issues a response to a configuration request event indication.
Input parameters
include the local CID of the endpoint being configured, outgoing transmit MTU
(which may be equal or less to the OutMTU parameter in the configuration
indication event) and the accepted flowspec for incoming traffic.
The output parameter is the Result value.
