DESCRIPTION

17       This manual page documents briefly the bluetoothd daemon, which manages
18       all  the  Bluetooth  devices.   bluetoothd can also provide a number of
19       services via the D-Bus message bus system.

OPTIONS

22       -v, --version
23              Print bluetoothd version and exit.
24
25       -h, --help
26              Print bluetoothd options and exit.
27
28       -n, --nodetach
29              Enable logging in foreground. Directs log output to the control‐
30              ling terminal in addition to syslog.
31
32       -f, --configfile
33              Specifies an explicit config file path instead of relying on the
34              default path (/etc/bluetooth/main.conf) for the config file.
35
36       -d, --debug=<file1>:<file2>:...
37              Sets how much information bluetoothd sends to the  log  destina‐
38              tion  (usually  syslog's "daemon" facility). If the file options
39              are omitted, then debugging  information  from  all  the  source
40              files  are printed. If file options are present, then only debug
41              prints from that source file are printed. The option  can  be  a
42              pattern containing "*" and "?" characters.
43
44              Example: --debug=src/adapter.c:src/agent.c
45
46       -p, --plugin=<plugin1>,<plugin2>,..
47              Load  these plugins only. The option can be a pattern containing
48              "*" and "?" characters.
49
50       -P, --noplugin=<plugin1>,<plugin2>,..
51              Never load these plugins. The option can be a pattern containing
52              "*" and "?" characters.
53
54       -C, --compat
55              Provide deprecated command line interfaces.
56
57       -E, --experimental
58              Enable experimental interfaces. Those interfaces are not guaran‐
59              teed to be compatible or present in future releases.
