[PATCH] Bluetooth: btusb: Add Realtek RTL8852BE BT 0x04c5/0x1670 (Fujitsu)
Posted by Jaroslav Srba 6 days, 8 hours ago 
The Fujitsu LIFEBOOK E5512A ships with a Realtek RTL8852BE combo chip
whose Bluetooth half is exposed as a Fujitsu-rebranded USB device
0x04c5/0x1670. Without this entry in quirks_table, btusb binds via the
generic Bluetooth class match but never sets the BTUSB_REALTEK quirk,
so btrtl_setup_realtek() is never called and the rtl8852bu firmware
patch is never loaded. As a result HCI works (hci0 UP RUNNING), but
RF reception is non-functional: inquiry and LE scan find nothing and
pairing is impossible.

Other Fujitsu OEM rebrands of Realtek chips are already in quirks_table
(0x04c5/0x165c, 0x04c5/0x1675, 0x04c5/0x161f). Add 0x04c5/0x1670 in
the same "Realtek 8852BE Bluetooth devices" block, alongside 0x04c5/0x165c.

USB descriptors of the device:

    Bus 001 Device 004: ID 04c5:1670 Fujitsu, Ltd Bluetooth Radio
      bDeviceClass          224 Wireless
      bDeviceSubClass         1 Radio Frequency
      bDeviceProtocol         1 Bluetooth
      iManufacturer           1 Realtek
      iProduct                2 Bluetooth Radio

Tested on Fujitsu LIFEBOOK E5512A (Ryzen 7 PRO 5875U, Ubuntu 25.10,
kernel 6.17.0-29-generic). After the patch:

  Bluetooth: hci0: RTL: examining hci_ver=0b hci_rev=000b lmp_ver=0b lmp_subver=8852
  Bluetooth: hci0: RTL: rom_version status=0 version=1
  Bluetooth: hci0: RTL: loading rtl_bt/rtl8852bu_fw.bin
  Bluetooth: hci0: RTL: loading rtl_bt/rtl8852bu_config.bin
  Bluetooth: hci0: RTL: fw version 0x098b154b
  Bluetooth: hci0: AOSP extensions version v1.00

Scanning, pairing and A2DP audio playback to BT headphones all work
after the firmware patch is loaded.

Changes in v2:
 - Drop a long "RTL: examining hci_ver=..." line from the commit body
   to satisfy checkpatch/gitlint 75-char limit. Chip identification is
   conveyed by the firmware filename (rtl8852bu_fw.bin) and the
   subsequent rom_version line, so no information is lost.
