The board runs Leagato17.09.0 and has WP76xx as controller. How can I put BlueZ stack into this ? I know you have provided provisions to put some utilities into the board but I am trying to develop a BLE application and I think I would need the whole stack APIs on target. ---

I’m in the process of trying to figure this out right now. There’s a relevant recipe in `poky/meta/recipes-connectivity/bluez5/` I built it successfully a week or so ago, but I never tried actually using it because I decided to step back to a higher level and better understand the bluez stack on desktop Linux before I got bogged down with the yocto/mangOH/Legato specific details of it. ---

Can you tell me how to include this in yocto build recipe; as this is not usually built with the kernel ? Also does this recipe create bluez libraries with BLE suport ? ---

I have built a [small yocto layer to enable bluetooth support for WP76/WP77](https://github.com/dpfrey/yocto_wp76_wp77_meta-bluetooth). Note that this is super unofficial at this point which is why I posted it on my personal github rather than the mangOH github. Please read the README in the layer repository. Note that this does _not_ provide support for the onboard mangOH Red bluetooth. It just enables bluetooth support in the kernel and provides bluez libraries. I haven’t really tested it yet other than bringing up the bluetooth interface using the wifi/bt IoT card. ---

Hi David, I tried following the instructions in you git page. I seem to be facing some issue either with flashing or the .cwe file; I am not sure at this point in time. The flashed board does not contain any Bluetooth utilities nor any BlueZ files. Any pointers ? I am flashing the file using swiflash. _swiflash -m WP76XX -i yocto\_wp76xx.4k.cwe_ - The meta-bluetooth folder didnot exist in my source so I created one and copied your repository into it. - The file swi-meta/build.sh was also not present; so I created a file, copied your code into it and renamed it build.sh, within swi-meta ---

@dfrey Hi I figured this out on my own. You need to edit the yocto/build\_bin/conf/local.conf, and add the line: **IMAGE\_INSTALL\_append = " bluez5 bluezhcidump"** Use the following command to make sure bluez5 is available in the yocto source and so is bluezhcidump. **bitbake-layers show-recipes** If hcidump is not available it can be ignored. So the addition to local.conf will become: **IMAGE\_INSTALL\_append = " bluez5"** Run bitbake, double check that the package has been added using: **bitbake image -g -u depexp** Flash and BlueZ away. 🙂 ---

Hi. I was wondering what the state is for BlueZ on Legato. Is it an official integration yet? ---

We will be able to have a way to add BlueZ 5.30 to mangoh boards by end of August. That method will be supported by the mangoh team ---

@asyal Will the BlueZ support work with any Bluetooth module that supports the HCI interface? ---

We will only validate it against the module on mangoh yellow ---

@asyal Thanks for the update.
