btuart fails on Raspberry Pi 5 due to UART changes (alpha8)
Describe the bug btuart service fails consistently with error about rpi3 being found
To reproduce systemctl restart btuart
System
In /opt/btspeaker/btuart.sh the line /proc/device-tree/soc/gpio@7e200000/uart0_pins/brcm\,pins is no longer valid as there is no folder of that name in the soc directory nor is there a uart0_pins folder in any of the two new directories gpio@7d508500 and gpio@7d517c00
Similarly in the same file the stty line does not work as there is no ttyAMA0 anymore. I believe the hci attach isn't needed even anymore. For RPI5, the correct line to attach is below which works.
/usr/bin/btattach -B /dev/ttyAMA10 -P bcm -S 115200 -N
Copy and paste the results of the raspinfo command in to this section. Alternatively, copy and paste a pastebin link, or add answers to the following questions:
Kernel is: Linux hifiberry 6.6.31-v8 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu May 23 07:43:46 UTC 2024 aarch64 GNU/Linux
This issue should be raised against the Github repo for btuart.sh script or possibly Linux if a DT alias is required to resolve the BT UART name.
Ah, ok. In that case the bug should be raised against whatever owns btuart.sh to update accordingly
The device-tree paths here are correct.
In RPiOS the hciuart systemd service runs /usr/bin/btuart, but only if /proc/device-tree/soc/gpio@7e200000/bt_pins/brcm,pins is non-empty. On Pi 5 it is not non-empty because it is absent, so we rely on the kernel having initialised the BT UART as an HCI interface.
Having Pi 5 Bluetooth initialised by hciattach (dtparam=krnbt=off) is unsupported.
