BNEP corruption.: msg#00005

linux.bluez.devel

Subject: BNEP corruption.

Using a PCMCIA bluetooth card I see this frequently...

bcsp_recv: Error in BCSP hdr checksum
bcsp_recv: Out-of-order packet arrived, got 2 expected 1
bcsp_recv: Out-of-order packet arrived, got 3 expected 1
bcsp_recv: Out-of-order packet arrived, got 4 expected 1
bcsp_recv: Short BCSP packet
bcsp_recv: Out-of-order packet arrived, got 7 expected 6
bcsp_recv: Out-of-order packet arrived, got 0 expected 6
bcsp_recv: Out-of-order packet arrived, got 1 expected 6
bcsp_recv: Error in BCSP hdr checksum

At some point I'll investigate -- I thought we were supposed to be using
flow control so that really shouldn't happen. But more concerning is the
fact that this leads to silent corruption in network traffic -- we seem
to be bypassing checksums on packets received by BNEP. Let's not do
that:
