Can't get data from BLE sensor
0%
Description
When using the iPad in order to monitor the battery, no data from the BLE sensor get displayed.
Some bluetooth related errors can be found in the system log:
bluetoothd[375]: Failed to open RFKILL control device
bluetoothd[375]: Unable to open adapter storage directory: /var/lib/bluetooth/48:EB:62:C6:26:B5
"rfkill" command in poc-service script fails the same way and the reason seems to be that file /dev/rfkill doesn't exist.
I tried to reinstall the package providing "rfkill" (util-linux) but it didn't create the missing file.
On my openSUSE machine I see there's a driver named "rfkill" which isn't present on the redpesk image, could be the root cause maybe...

From what I read on the "rfkill" topic, it seems it can be either a module or an executable. This has to be decided when building the Linux kernel by setting variable CONFIG_RFKILL to either 'm' or 'y'. On the redpesk image I use, /proc/config.gz indicates CONFIG_RFKILL wasn't set at all so I guess setting it to 'y' and rebuilding the kernel should fix the problem.

Thank for your report and your analyses. Indeed, our new solidrun image has a missing driver. We are adding this one, and we will take the opportunity to integrate the new Solidrun patches which improve the BLE activation on your solidsense board

Emmanuel confirmed today the issue is gone in the latest builds and images.
Closing as a result.
