** Description changed:
+ SRU Justification
+
+ [Impact]
+ The firmware blob for Intel Bluetooth 9560/9462 is versioned 20.30.0.1 is not
compatible with kernel version >= 4.19 and will cause failure to pair BT 4.0
devices.
+
+ [Fix]
+ 29a536a02cad linux-firmware: Update firmware file for Intel Bluetooth 9560
+
+ Above upstream change contains latest firmware file for Intel Bluetooth
+ 9560 that fixes HID pairing in recent kernel versions.
+
+ [Test Case]
+ Copy ibt-17-16-1.sfi blob to /lib/firmware/intel and do a cold boot to reload
firmware. One should find following message in dmesg:
+
+ Bluetooth: hci0: Bootloader revision 0.1 build 42 week 52 2015
+
+ This indicates firmware reload has been activated. For further warm
+ boots, kernel would dump updated revision:
+
+ Bluetooth: hci0: Firmware revision 0.1 build 184 week 15 2019
+
+ And perform BT 4.0 device pairing for functional tests.
+
+ Tested blob against following kernel versions:
+
+ * 5.0.0-1004-oem-osp1
+ * 5.0.0-15-generic
+ * 4.18.0-20-generic
+ * 4.15.0-1038-oem
+ * 4.15.0-50-generic
+
+ [Regression Risk]
+ Low. This affects only Intel JeffersonPeak Bluetooth chip series, namely
9461/9462/9560, which are the hardware variants to be fixed.
+

For kernel version >= 4.19, it fails to pair with BT4.0 HID devices and
leave error messages in syslog:
Bluetooth: hci0: request failed to create LE connection: status 0x0c
Which can be detailed by btmon:
< HCI Command: LE Extended Create Connection (0x08|0x0043) plen 26 #800

Indicating this is actually a firmware problem.
Verified this has been fixed at least in upstream linux-firmware commit
29a536a02cadb75b84c6c0b5d7af22d34d278563, firmware release version
21.10.0.6. With that firmware blob placed under /lib/firmware/intel and
a cold boot, dmesg gives updated revision and device pairing works as
expected:
Firmware revision 0.1 build 184 week 15 2019
** Changed in: linux-firmware (Ubuntu Bionic)
Status: In Progress => Fix Committed
** Changed in: linux-firmware (Ubuntu)
Status: In Progress => Fix Released
