  • UUID: implement encoding methods MarshalBinary, UnmarshalBinary, AppendBinary, MarshalText, UnmarshalText, and AppendText. Also enhance testing and improve performance. ParseUUID and UUID.String now use these methods. UnmarshalText supports 128, 32, and 16-bit UUIDs.
  • MAC: implement encoding interfaces (TextMarshaler, BinaryMarshaler, TextAppender, BinaryAppender) for efficient encoding and use with packages like encoding/json and encoding/xml. String method performance improved.
  • fix: correctly handle slice of connection handles for notification updates.
• hci
  • fix: handle l2cap connection param req updates with invalid length data.
• linux
  • Fix: Adapter.connectHandler is now called after Advertisement.Start. D-Bus signals added to handle connect/disconnect events when peripheral is advertising (#​369).
  • Fix: ensure connectHandler is invoked on initial device connection.
  • Advertising: Add alias update on advertising.
  • Advertising: Extend property handling for D-Bus signals.
  • Adapter: check powered state before connecting.

  • update to latest version of Bluetooth numbers database for latest services/characteristics
• linux
  • gap: add implementation for SetRandomAddress() function
  • gap: correct HCI implementation so it can Configure/Start/Stop advertising correctly. Needed to update ServiceData after Advertisment is already started.
  • gap: update implementation for GAP to allow for calling adv.Configure() followed by adv.Start() followed by adv.Stop() multiple times. This is required in order to update advertising ServiceData.

  • actually parse of ServiceData and ManufacturerData when scanning, and use existing GAP implementation to do it
  • correct parsing of ServiceData and ManufacturerData and add some helpful constants
  • correct race condition from connection params in HCI implementation. Basically it was responding by calling a function that retriggered asking to change the parameters yet again. Yet we are not actually doing anything about this request at present.
  • ensure HCI send/receive buffers for ATT are large enough for maximum MTU length
  • ensure that HCI advertising interval is set to a default value, otherwise different adverting types do not work correctly
