Hi Philip, please see the comment the kernel developer added to the pybleno ticket I linked to above. There is a regression in the kernel as a result of changes made to fix CVE-2024-35963. What I am asking for is for this regression to be addressed and or backported to HWE 6.8 once it becomes fixed if we find that the issue is entirely kernel side.
Thanks, ** CVE added: https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=2024-35963 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2080095 Title: Initializing bluetooth using socket.c userland functions broken after upgrade from 6.5 to 6.8 (and mainline 6.9, 6.10) Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: My company uses pybleno to initialize bluetooth LE devices on our IOT devices as GATT servers. This has worked fine from 4.x kernels on Ubuntu 18.04 up to 6.5.0 on Ubuntu 22.04 for us. The Python code interfaces with the socket.c userland functions AFAICT. After upgrading from 6.5 to 6.8 kernel on Ubuntu 22.04, the kernel is now returning "[Errno 22] Invalid Argument" from the socket.c setsockopt function. I have outline as best I can what I checked in the downstream pybleno ticket here: https://github.com/Adam-Langley/pybleno/issues/63 I could use some input on whether on not any of the recent socket.c changes between 6.5 to 6.8 changes could have caused this and if this is a regression or whether not the Python calls to these socket.c functions which have worked since 4.x need to be rewritten as a result of an expected interface change on the kernel side. This problem exists for us as well when we tested with mainline 6.9 and 6.10 kernels last week and our only current solution is downgrading to 6.5 .
