Any use BLE_GAP_ADV_DATA_STATUS INCOMPLETE_xxx ?

[loquat]

On SoftDevice S140(V7.2.0)

ble_gap_adv_report_type_t status has four types.

BLE_GAP_ADV_DATA_STATUS_COMPLETE
BLE_GAP_ADV_DATA_STATUS_INCOMPLETE_MORE_DATA
BLE_GAP_ADV_DATA_STATUS_INCOMPLETE_TRUNCATED
BLE_GAP_ADV_DATA_STATUS_INCOMPLETE_MISSED

BLE_GAP_ADV_DATA_STATUS_INCOMPLETE_xxx

What does those status mean?

[Kenneth]

I can find from the documentation:
https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.nordic.infocenter.s132.api.v7.2.0%2Fgroup___b_l_e___g_a_p___a_d_v___d_a_t_a___s_t_a_t_u_s.html

OK, but,

written on ble_gap_scan_params_t.report_incomplete_evts
@note This feature is not supported by this SoftDevice.

and I try to set report_incomplete_evts =1, sd_ble_gap_scan_start return NRF_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED.

So that, never be return BLE_GAP_ADV_DATA_STATUS_INCOMPLETE_MORE_DATA?

Also, What situation when be return
BLE_GAP_ADV_DATA_STATUS_INCOMPLETE_TRUNCATED
BLE_GAP_ADV_DATA_STATUS_INCOMPLETE_MISSED ?

[loquat]

OK.

Well then

When Advertiser Send advertising ADV_EXT_IND + AUX_ADV_IND(AdData Length=200) + AUX_CHAIN_IND(AdData Length=200).
(And (sd_ble_gap_scan_start()'s adv_report_buffer length is 500Bytes)

Does it return COMPLETE? (and length = 400bytes?)

Yes.

Kenneth

[loquat]

Oh, really?

Well then,

What does the following definition mean?

#define BLE_GAP_SCAN_BUFFER_EXTENDED_MAX_SUPPORTED (255)

And Which packet values are these?
ble_gap_evt_adv_report_t
 ->secondary_phy
 ->rssi
 ->aux_pointer

[Kenneth]

Sorry, you are right, it will be TRUNCATED.

I can not understand.

adv_report_buffer length set 1650bytes.
When Advertiser Send advertising ADV_EXT_IND + AUX_ADV_IND(AdData Length=200) + AUX_CHAIN_IND(AdData Length=200) (and it is recieved), Which of the following will be?

1. COMPLETE  and length = 400bytes
2. COMPLETE  and length = 200bytes
3. COMPLETE  and length = 256bytes
4. TRUNCATED and length = 400bytes
5. TRUNCATED and length = 200bytes
6. TRUNCATED and length = 256bytes
7. Other

[Kenneth]

It will be TRUNCATED 255bytes, because the scan buffer max size is unfortunately 255bytes from the BLE_GAP_SCAN_BUFFER_EXTENDED_MAX_SUPPORTED. .

OK.
I understood all.
Thank you.
