esp_err_t esp_bredr_tx_power_set(esp_power_level_t min_power_level, esp_power_level_t max_power_level)
Set BR/EDR TX power BR/EDR power control will use the power in range of minimum value and maximum value. The power level will effect the global BR/EDR TX power, such inquire, page, connection and so on. Please call the function after esp_bt_controller_enable and before any function which cause RF do TX. So you can call the function before doing discovery, profile init and so on. For example, if you want BR/EDR use the new TX power to do inquire, you should call this function before inquire. Another word, If call this function when BR/EDR is in inquire(ING), please do inquire again after call this function. Default minimum power level is ESP_PWR_LVL_N0, and maximum power level is ESP_PWR_LVL_P3.
参数
min_power_level -- The minimum power level
max_power_level -- The maximum power level
返回
ESP_OK - success, other - failed
esp_err_t esp_bredr_tx_power_get(esp_power_level_t *min_power_level, esp_power_level_t *max_power_level)
Get BR/EDR TX power If the argument is not NULL, then store the corresponding value.
参数
min_power_level -- The minimum power level
max_power_level -- The maximum power level
返回
ESP_OK - success, other - failed
esp_err_t esp_bredr_sco_datapath_set(esp_sco_data_path_t data_path)

参数
data_path -- SCO data path
返回
ESP_OK - success, other - failed
esp_err_t esp_bt_controller_init(esp_bt_controller_config_t *cfg)
Initialize BT controller to allocate task and other resource. This function should be called only once, before any other BT functions are called.
参数
cfg -- Initial configuration of BT controller. Different from previous version, there's a mode and some connection configuration in "cfg" to configure controller work mode and allocate the resource which is needed.
返回
ESP_OK - success, other - failed
esp_err_t esp_bt_controller_deinit(void)
De-initialize BT controller to free resource and delete task. You should stop advertising and scanning, as well as disconnect all existing connections before de-initializing BT controller.
This function should be called only once, after any other BT functions are called.
返回
ESP_OK - success, other - failed
esp_err_t esp_bt_controller_enable(esp_bt_mode_t mode)
Enable BT controller. Due to a known issue, you cannot call esp_bt_controller_enable() a second time to change the controller mode dynamically. To change controller mode, call esp_bt_controller_disable() and then call esp_bt_controller_enable() with the new mode.
参数
mode -- : the mode(BLE/BT/BTDM) to enable. For compatible of API, retain this argument. This mode must be equal as the mode in "cfg" of esp_bt_controller_init().
返回
ESP_OK - success, other - failed
esp_err_t esp_bt_controller_disable(void)
Disable BT controller.
返回
ESP_OK - success, other - failed
esp_bt_controller_status_t esp_bt_controller_get_status(void)
Get BT controller is initialised/de-initialised/enabled/disabled.
返回
status value
bool esp_vhci_host_check_send_available(void)
esp_vhci_host_check_send_available used for check actively if the host can send packet to controller or not.
返回
true for ready to send, false means cannot send packet
void esp_vhci_host_send_packet(uint8_t *data, uint16_t len)
esp_vhci_host_send_packet host send packet to controller
Should not call this function from within a critical section or when the scheduler is suspended.
参数
data -- the packet point
len -- the packet length
esp_err_t esp_vhci_host_register_callback(const esp_vhci_host_callback_t *callback)
esp_vhci_host_register_callback register the vhci reference callback struct defined by vhci_host_callback structure.
参数
callback -- esp_vhci_host_callback type variable
返回
ESP_OK - success, ESP_FAIL - failed
esp_err_t esp_bt_controller_mem_release(esp_bt_mode_t mode)
esp_bt_controller_mem_release release the controller memory as per the mode
This function releases the BSS, data and other sections of the controller to heap. The total size is about 70k bytes.
esp_bt_controller_mem_release(mode) should be called only before esp_bt_controller_init() or after esp_bt_controller_deinit().
Note that once BT controller memory is released, the process cannot be reversed. It means you cannot use the bluetooth mode which you have released by this function.
If your firmware will later upgrade the Bluetooth controller mode (BLE -> BT Classic or disabled -> enabled) then do not call this function.
If the app calls esp_bt_controller_enable(ESP_BT_MODE_BLE) to use BLE only then it is safe to call esp_bt_controller_mem_release(ESP_BT_MODE_CLASSIC_BT) at initialization time to free unused BT Classic memory.
If the mode is ESP_BT_MODE_BTDM, then it may be useful to call API esp_bt_mem_release(ESP_BT_MODE_BTDM) instead, which internally calls esp_bt_controller_mem_release(ESP_BT_MODE_BTDM) and additionally releases the BSS and data consumed by the BT/BLE host stack to heap. For more details about usage please refer to the documentation of esp_bt_mem_release() function
参数
mode -- : the mode want to release memory
返回
ESP_OK - success, other - failed
esp_err_t esp_bt_mem_release(esp_bt_mode_t mode)
esp_bt_mem_release release controller memory and BSS and data section of the BT/BLE host stack as per the mode
This function first releases controller memory by internally calling esp_bt_controller_mem_release(). Additionally, if the mode is set to ESP_BT_MODE_BTDM, it also releases the BSS and data consumed by the BT/BLE host stack to heap
Note that once BT memory is released, the process cannot be reversed. It means you cannot use the bluetooth mode which you have released by this function.
If your firmware will later upgrade the Bluetooth controller mode (BLE -> BT Classic or disabled -> enabled) then do not call this function.
If you never intend to use bluetooth in a current boot-up cycle, you can call esp_bt_mem_release(ESP_BT_MODE_BTDM) before esp_bt_controller_init or after esp_bt_controller_deinit.
For example, if a user only uses bluetooth for setting the WiFi configuration, and does not use bluetooth in the rest of the product operation". In such cases, after receiving the WiFi configuration, you can disable/deinit bluetooth and release its memory. Below is the sequence of APIs to be called for such scenarios:
esp_bluedroid_disable();
esp_bluedroid_deinit();
esp_bt_controller_disable();
esp_bt_controller_deinit();
esp_bt_mem_release(ESP_BT_MODE_BTDM);
备注
In case of NimBLE host, to release BSS and data memory to heap, the mode needs to be set to ESP_BT_MODE_BTDM as controller is dual mode.
参数
mode -- : the mode whose memory is to be released
返回
ESP_OK - success, other - failed
esp_err_t esp_bt_sleep_enable(void)
enable bluetooth to enter modem sleep
Note that this function shall not be invoked before esp_bt_controller_enable()
There are currently two options for bluetooth modem sleep, one is ORIG mode, and another is EVED Mode. EVED Mode is intended for BLE only.
For ORIG mode: Bluetooth modem sleep is enabled in controller start up by default if CONFIG_CTRL_BTDM_MODEM_SLEEP is set and "ORIG mode" is selected. In ORIG modem sleep mode, bluetooth controller will switch off some components and pause to work every now and then, if there is no event to process; and wakeup according to the scheduled interval and resume the work. It can also wakeup earlier upon external request using function "esp_bt_controller_wakeup_request".
返回
ESP_OK : success
other : failed
esp_err_t esp_bt_sleep_disable(void)
disable bluetooth modem sleep
Note that this function shall not be invoked before esp_bt_controller_enable()
If esp_bt_sleep_disable() is called, bluetooth controller will not be allowed to enter modem sleep;
If ORIG modem sleep mode is in use, if this function is called, bluetooth controller may not immediately wake up if it is dormant then. In this case, esp_bt_controller_wakeup_request() can be used to shorten the time for wakeup.
返回
ESP_OK : success
other : failed
esp_err_t esp_ble_scan_dupilcate_list_flush(void)
Manually clear scan duplicate list.
Note that scan duplicate list will be automatically cleared when the maximum amount of device in the filter is reached the amount of device in the filter can be configured in menuconfig.
备注
This function name is incorrectly spelled, it will be fixed in release 5.x version.
返回
ESP_OK : success
other : failed
void esp_wifi_bt_power_domain_on(void)
bt Wi-Fi power domain power on
void esp_wifi_bt_power_domain_off(void)
bt Wi-Fi power domain power off
