Help¶

Enforce flow control rules on incoming PDUs, preventing a peer from sending new requests until a previous one has been responded or sending a new indication until a previous one has been confirmed. This may need to be disabled to avoid potential race conditions arising from a USB based HCI transport that splits HCI events and ACL data to separate endpoints.

Direct dependencies¶

BT_CONN && BT_HCI_HOST && BT_HCI && BT

(Includes any dependencies from ifs and menus.)
