This is the starting position of the given pattern. For instance, if we'd like to look for the pattern within a Manufacturer Data field with value {0x01, 0x02, 0x03} starting from index 2. Given the Manufacturer Data field is {0x00, 0xFF, 0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x04}, the matching would start from octet 0x01, and the result would be a match. Perhaps I should rename "Index" to "Start_Position" or rename "Monitor_index" to "Monitor_handle" to avoid confusion. > > > + Length (1 Octet) > > + Value (variable length) > > + } > > + Pattern2 { } > > + ... > > + Return Parameters: Monitor_Index (8 Octets) > > I guess we could call this a handle if the is assigned by the > controller not the host stack, also it might be more a good idea to > put some example on how to build the parameter list, etc, to make it > easier to visualize how these parameters are put together. "Monitor_Handle" sounds good to me. I will add some examples. > > > + > > + This command is used to add an advertisement monitor whose filtering > > + conditions are patterns.

The intention of this command is indeed to handle the restart of bluetoothd. It's a good point that we may want to remove all monitors of an application. Let me try to combine remove and remove all commands in my next patch. Thanks, Miao

This describes the following commands. - Add Advertisement Patterns Monitor - Remove Advertisement Monitor - Remove All Advertisement Monitors Note that the content of a monitor can differ based on its type. For now we introduce only pattern-based monitor, so you may find that unlike commands for removing monitor(s), the Add command is tied to a specific type.
