[PATCH 3.15 085/139] Bluetooth: Fix requiring SMP MITM for outgoing connections

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sat Jun 28 2014 - 14:09:38 EST


3.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hedberg <johan.hedberg@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 79897d2097a629179e142014ecd3cdce6eac7f0e upstream.

Due to recent changes to the way that the MITM requirement is set for
outgoing pairing attempts we can no longer rely on the hcon->auth_type
variable (which is actually good since it was formed from BR/EDR
concepts that don't really exist for SMP).

To match the logic that BR/EDR now uses simply rely on the local IO
capability and/or needed security level to set the MITM requirement for
outgoing pairing requests.
