hcxbtdumptool
Small tool to capture packets from Bluetooth devices.
Initial commit - no Bluetooth functions - only help and version menue and Bluetooth device information available.
This is a playground to get some knowledge about coding Bluetooth.
Everything is high experimental.
Similar to hcxdumptool (WiFi) we use ioctl() system calls to control the device.
Brief description
Stand-alone binaries - designed to run on Raspberry Pi's with installed Arch Linux. It may work on other Linux systems (notebooks, desktops) and distributions, too.
