For what it's worth Bluetooth stack does not work out of the box on EL7 armhfp architecture and RPi3. One needs:



1. patch bluez-utils a bit since hciattach attempts to get the files from the wrong directory

2. firmware for brcm 43430 isn't supplied with EL7, I had to get it from another source

3. udev doesn't know to check the presence of 43430 so one needs to make a rule for that, too



Other than that, ethernet, wifi and everything else I've tested works quite well. I haven't tried with the serial ports in 232.

 

😊

Thanks Kaj

I've got it running, but it looks like it will need a bit of work to get it fully implemented.
