Whether the param that BLE_GAP_WHITELIST_ADDR_MAX_COUNT can changed?

I noticed that in the hid_mouse sample, the whitelist advertising was used to achieve seamless recovery of accidentally disconnected connections.

This function is implemented through the "whitelist_set()" function.I noticed that the length of the array is BLE_GAP_WHITELIST_ADDR_MAX_COUNT.

The value is set as 8.

If the value can be changed to a lager number to support a lager whitelist?

Hi,

There is a maximum of 8 addresses in the whitelist, due to hardware limitations as well as the implementation of whitelist in the SoftDevice. I am afraid the number for BLE_GAP_WHITELIST_ADDR_MAX_COUNT cannot be changed.

Please note that for new projects we do not recommend use of (the older) nRF5 SDK, but rather (the newer) nRF Connect SDK. For details, see our nRF Connect SDK and nRF5 SDK statement.
