35 .Nd Bluetooth Service Discovery Protocol daemon
46 daemon keeps track of the Bluetooth services registered on the host
47 and responds to Service Discovery inquiries from the remote Bluetooth devices.
49 In order to use any service remote Bluetooth device need to send Service
50 Search and Service Attribute or Service Search Attribute request over
51 Bluetooth L2CAP connection on SDP PSM (0x0001).
54 daemon will try to find matching Service Record in its Service Database
55 and will send appropriate response back.
56 The remote device then will process the response, extract all required
57 information and will make a separate connection in order to use the service.
59 Bluetooth applications, running on the host, register services with
63 Operation like service registration, service removal and service change are
64 performed over the control socket.
65 It is possible to query entire content of the
71 command on the control socket.
73 The command line options are as follows:
74 .Bl -tag -width indent
76 Do not detach from the controlling terminal.
78 Specify path to the control socket.

114 will listen for incoming L2CAP connections on a wildcard BD_ADDR.
116 In case of multiple Bluetooth devices connected to the same host it is
117 possible to specify which services should be
119 to which Bluetooth device.
120 Such assignment should be done at service registration time.
122 Requests to register, remove or change service can only be made via the
126 daemon will check the peer's credentials and will only accept the request
127 when the peer is the superuser, of if the peer is a member of the group
134 daemon does not check for duplicated Service Records.
135 It only performs minimal checking on the service data sent in the Service
137 It is assumed that application must obtain all required resources such
138 as RFCOMM channels etc., before registering the service.
