Detailed Description

Function Documentation

uint32_t sd_ble_gap_address_get

(

ble_gap_addr_t *

p_addr

)

Get local Bluetooth address.

Parameters

[out]

p_addr

Pointer to address structure to be filled in.

Return values

NRF_SUCCESS	Address successfully retrieved.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_ADDR	Invalid pointer supplied.

uint32_t sd_ble_gap_address_set	(	uint8_t	addr_cycle_mode,
		const ble_gap_addr_t *	p_addr
	)

Set local Bluetooth address.

Note

If the address cycle mode is BLE_GAP_ADDR_CYCLE_MODE_AUTO, the address type is required to be BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_RANDOM_PRIVATE_RESOLVABLE or BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_RANDOM_PRIVATE_NON_RESOLVABLE. The given address is ignored and the SoftDevice will generate a new private address automatically every BLE_GAP_DEFAULT_PRIVATE_ADDR_CYCLE_INTERVAL_S seconds. If this API call is used again with the same parameters, the SoftDevice will immediately generate a new private address to replace the current address.

If the application wishes to use a BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_PUBLIC or BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_RANDOM_STATIC address, the cycle mode must be BLE_GAP_ADDR_CYCLE_MODE_NONE.

If this API function is called while advertising or scanning, the softdevice will immediately update the advertising or scanning address without the need to stop the procedure in the following cases:

• If the previously set address is of type BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_PUBLIC and the new address is also of type BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_PUBLIC
• If the previously set address is not BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_PUBLIC and the new address is also not BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_PUBLIC. If the address is changed from a BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_PUBLIC address to another type or from another type to a BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_PUBLIC address, the change will take effect the next time an advertising or scanning procedure is started.

If the address cycle mode is BLE_GAP_ADDR_CYCLE_MODE_NONE and the application is using privacy, the application must take care to generate and set new private addresses periodically to comply with the Privacy specification in Bluetooth Core Spec.

Parameters

[in]	addr_cycle_mode	Address cycle mode, see GAP Address cycle modes.
[in]	p_addr	Pointer to address structure.

Return values

NRF_SUCCESS	Address successfully set.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_ADDR	Invalid pointer supplied.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_PARAM	Invalid parameters.
BLE_ERROR_GAP_INVALID_BLE_ADDR	Invalid address.
NRF_ERROR_BUSY	The stack is busy, process pending events and retry.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_STATE	Invalid state to perform operation.

uint32_t sd_ble_gap_adv_data_set	(	uint8_t const *	p_data,
		uint8_t	dlen,
		uint8_t const *	p_sr_data,
		uint8_t	srdlen
	)

Set, clear or update advertising and scan response data.

Note

The format of the advertising data will be checked by this call to ensure interoperability. Limitations imposed by this API call to the data provided include having a flags data type in the scan response data and duplicating the local name in the advertising data and scan response data.

To clear the advertising data and set it to a 0-length packet, simply provide a valid pointer (p_data/p_sr_data) with its corresponding length (dlen/srdlen) set to 0.

The call will fail if p_data and p_sr_data are both NULL since this would have no effect.

Parameters

[in]	p_data	Raw data to be placed in advertising packet. If NULL, no changes are made to the current advertising packet data.
[in]	dlen	Data length for p_data. Max size: BLE_GAP_ADV_MAX_SIZE octets. Should be 0 if p_data is NULL, can be 0 if p_data is not NULL.
[in]	p_sr_data	Raw data to be placed in scan response packet. If NULL, no changes are made to the current scan response packet data.
[in]	srdlen	Data length for p_sr_data. Max size: BLE_GAP_ADV_MAX_SIZE octets. Should be 0 if p_sr_data is NULL, can be 0 if p_data is not NULL.

Return values

NRF_SUCCESS	Advertising data successfully updated or cleared.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_ADDR	Invalid pointer supplied.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_FLAGS	Invalid combination of advertising flags supplied.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_DATA	Invalid data type(s) supplied, check the advertising data format specification.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_LENGTH	Invalid data length(s) supplied.
BLE_ERROR_GAP_UUID_LIST_MISMATCH	Invalid UUID list supplied.
BLE_ERROR_INVALID_ROLE	Operation is not supported in the Central role.

uint32_t sd_ble_gap_adv_start

(

ble_gap_adv_params_t const *

p_adv_params

)

Start advertising (GAP Discoverable, Connectable modes, Broadcast Procedure).

Note

An application can start an advertising procedure for broadcasting purposes while a connection is active. After a BLE_GAP_EVT_CONNECTED event is received, this function may therefore be called to start a broadcast advertising procedure. The advertising procedure cannot however be connectable (it must be of type BLE_GAP_ADV_TYPE_ADV_SCAN_IND or BLE_GAP_ADV_TYPE_ADV_NONCONN_IND).

Only one advertiser may be active at any time.

Parameters

Return values

NRF_SUCCESS	The BLE stack has started advertising.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_ADDR	Invalid pointer supplied.

NRF_ERROR_INVALID_ADDR	Invalid pointer supplied.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_PARAM	Invalid parameter(s) supplied.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_STATE	Invalid state to perform operation.

Parameters

[in]	conn_handle	Connection handle.

In the central role this will initiate a Link Layer connection parameter update procedure, otherwise in the peripheral role, this will send the corresponding L2CAP request and wait for the central to perform the procedure. In both cases, and regardless of success or failure, the application will be informed of the result with a BLE_GAP_EVT_CONN_PARAM_UPDATE event.

This function can be used both to reply to a BLE_GAP_EVT_CONN_PARAM_UPDATE_REQUEST or to start the procedure unrequested.

Parameters

[in]	conn_handle	Connection handle.

Note

If the call returns an error code, the request is still pending, and the reply call may be repeated with corrected parameters.

Data signing is not implemented yet. p_sign_info must therefore be NULL.

[in]	sec_status	Security status, see GAP Security status.
[in]	p_sec_params	Pointer to a ble_gap_sec_params_t security parameters structure. As a central this must be set to NULL, as the parameters have already been provided during a previous call to sd_ble_gap_authenticate.

Any keys distributed as a result of the ongoing security procedure will be stored into the memory referenced inside this structure. The keys will be stored and availabel to the applicaiton upon reception of a BLE_GAP_EVT_AUTH_STATUS event. A NULL pointer will result in the keys not being stored at all. The ID key data distributed by the local device constitute an exception. It will either have to be filled in by the user before calling this function, in which case the filled in address and IRK is distributed, or the pointer to the ID key data structure can be NULL, in which case the device's configured (or default, if none is configured) Bluetooth address and IRK is distributed.

This function is only used to reply to a BLE_GAP_EVT_SEC_PARAMS_REQUEST, calling it at other times will result in an NRF_ERROR_INVALID_STATE.

Note
