Bluetooth Driver services
btdrv
This is "nn::bluetooth::IBluetoothDriver".
The bluetooth driver implements the bluetooth protocol over h4/uart.
It interfaces with the uart service to actually talk with the bluetooth hardware.
The code seems to be derived from a broadcom stack. A good starting point for similar source code can be found in the MICO project: https://github.com/yinhongxing/mico/tree/ea67ff3659f12d730d4dc3b8d547b093bd2ee2ee/MICO/bluetooth_bte Note that the library files contain many (symbolized) functions which match btdrv.
Support for "nn::bluetooth::*" was added to sdknso with 6.x.
btdrv appears to be designed to only be used by the two sysmodules which use it, hid and btm. This service uses global state, nothing service-session-specific.
This has max_sessions 30. IPC handling is done by the main-thread.
As of 10.x these services only support using Hid and BLE devices, other devices such as audio are not usable.
Various cmdids were moved with [4.0.0+] and [5.0.0+].
