Exercise 3 – Provisioning the device over Bluetooth LE

In this exercise, we are going to add support for provisioning over Bluetooth LE to our application, using the Wi-Fi Provisioning Core library.

For this exercise, we very much recommend going though the Bluetooth Low Energy Fundamentals course, as we reuse a lot of the API’s that are covered in detail in that course.

Exercise steps

In the GitHub repository for this course, go to the base code for this exercise, found in l2/l2_e3.

1. Enable and configure the necessary configurations.

1.1 Enable the necessary Bluetooth LE configurations.

Copy
CONFIG_BT=y
CONFIG_BT_PERIPHERAL=y
CONFIG_BT_PERIPHERAL_PREF_TIMEOUT=75
CONFIG_BT_WIFI_PROV=y
CONFIG_WIFI_PROV_CORE=y
CONFIG_BT_BONDABLE=n

CONFIG_BT_SMP=y
CONFIG_BT_BUF_ACL_RX_SIZE=151
CONFIG_BT_L2CAP_TX_MTU=147
CONFIG_BT_BUF_ACL_TX_SIZE=151
CONFIG_BT_RX_STACK_SIZE=22000
CONFIG_BT_DEVICE_NAME_DYNAMIC=y
Kconfig

1.2 Enable the necessary NVS and flash configurations.

Copy
CONFIG_FLASH=y
CONFIG_FLASH_PAGE_LAYOUT=y
CONFIG_FLASH_MAP=y

CONFIG_NVS=y
CONFIG_SETTINGS=y
CONFIG_SETTINGS_NVS=y
Kconfig

1.3 Enable the IPC radio firmware.

Since we want to use both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth LE in the same application, we need to enable IPC radio firmware. This allows us to use the radio peripheral in the network core (cpunet) from the application core (cpuapp).

1.3.1 Enable the IPC radio firmware in Sysbuild.

This is done through the following Kconfig: SB_CONFIG_NRF_DEFAULT_IPC_RADIO, see Sysbuild Kconfig options.

Open Kconfig.sysbuild and add the following lines

Copy
config NRF_DEFAULT_IPC_RADIO
	default y
Kconfig

1.3.2 Configure the IPC radio firmware for Bluetooth LE.

In the directory sysbuild/ipc_radio, open the prj.conf file and input the following lines

Copy
CONFIG_BT=y
CONFIG_BT_HCI_RAW=y
CONFIG_BT_BUF_ACL_TX_SIZE=151
CONFIG_BT_BUF_ACL_RX_SIZE=151
CONFIG_BT_CTLR_DATA_LENGTH_MAX=151
CONFIG_BT_MAX_CONN=2

CONFIG_IPC_RADIO_BT=y
CONFIG_IPC_RADIO_BT_HCI_IPC=y
Kconfig
  • CONFIG_IPC_RADIO_BT – Set the supported radio configuration to Bluetooth Low Energy serialization.
  • CONFIG_IPC_RADIO_BT_HCI_IPC – Selects the Bluetooth HCI serialization.

2. Include header files for Bluetooth LE.

Include the necessary Bluetooth LE header files in main.c, as well as the header file for the Wi-Fi Provisioning Service.

Add the following lines in main.c

Copy
#include <zephyr/bluetooth/bluetooth.h>
#include <zephyr/bluetooth/hci.h>
#include <zephyr/bluetooth/conn.h>
#include <zephyr/bluetooth/uuid.h>
#include <zephyr/bluetooth/gatt.h>
#include <net/wifi_prov_core/wifi_prov_core.h>
#include <bluetooth/services/wifi_provisioning.h>
C

3. Define a provisioning service variable prov_svc_data structure.

3.1 Define an array prov_svc_data for storing provisioning service data.

Copy
static uint8_t prov_svc_data[] = {BT_UUID_PROV_VAL, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00};
C

3.2 Define indexes for the available bits to store information.

Define macros to easily be able to refer to the available bits of prov_svc_data.

Copy
#define ADV_DATA_VERSION_IDX          (BT_UUID_SIZE_128 + 0)
#define ADV_DATA_FLAG_IDX             (BT_UUID_SIZE_128 + 1)
#define ADV_DATA_FLAG_PROV_STATUS_BIT BIT(0)
#define ADV_DATA_FLAG_CONN_STATUS_BIT BIT(1)
#define ADV_DATA_RSSI_IDX             (BT_UUID_SIZE_128 + 3)
C

4. Define the structures for the advertisement data and scan response data.

4.1 Define a variable for the device name device_name.

Copy
static uint8_t device_name[] = {'P', 'V', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0'};
C

4.2 Define the data structure bt_data ad[] for the advertisement packet.

Firstly, we set the advertisement flags to advertise in general discoverable mode (BT_LE_AD_GENERAL) and that classic Bluetooth (BR/EDR) is not supported (BT_LE_AD_NO_BRERD).

Secondly, we advertise the UUID of the Wi-Fi Provisioning Service, BT_UUID_PROV_VAL.

Lastly, we want to advertise the device name, which we defined earlier as the variable device_name.

Add the following lines to the main.c file

Copy
static const struct bt_data ad[] = {
	BT_DATA_BYTES(BT_DATA_FLAGS, (BT_LE_AD_GENERAL | BT_LE_AD_NO_BREDR)),
	BT_DATA_BYTES(BT_DATA_UUID128_ALL, BT_UUID_PROV_VAL),
	BT_DATA(BT_DATA_NAME_COMPLETE, device_name, sizeof(device_name)),
};
C

4.3 Define the structure bt_data sd[] for the scan response.

In the scan response, we want to include the provisioning service data stored in prov_svc_data.

Copy
static const struct bt_data sd[] = {
	BT_DATA(BT_DATA_SVC_DATA128, prov_svc_data, sizeof(prov_svc_data)),
};
C

5. Define the function update_wifi_status_in_adv() to update prov_svc_data.

5.1 Update prov_svc_data with the firmware version PROV_SVC_VER.

Copy
prov_svc_data[ADV_DATA_VERSION_IDX] = PROV_SVC_VER;
C

5.2 Use the function wifi_prov_state_get() to get the provisioning state of the device, which returns true or false, depending on if the device is provisioned or not, and update prov_svc_data

Copy
if (!wifi_prov_state_get()) {
	prov_svc_data[ADV_DATA_FLAG_IDX] &= ~ADV_DATA_FLAG_PROV_STATUS_BIT;
} else {
	prov_svc_data[ADV_DATA_FLAG_IDX] |= ADV_DATA_FLAG_PROV_STATUS_BIT;
}
C

5.3 Then request the status of the net interface. If Wi-Fi is not connected and/or an error occurs, mark the status as not connected. If not, mark it as connected.

Copy
struct net_if *iface = net_if_get_first_wifi();
struct wifi_iface_status status = {0};

int err = net_mgmt(NET_REQUEST_WIFI_IFACE_STATUS, iface, &status, sizeof(struct wifi_iface_status));
if ((err != 0) || (status.state < WIFI_STATE_ASSOCIATED)) {
	prov_svc_data[ADV_DATA_FLAG_IDX] &= ~ADV_DATA_FLAG_CONN_STATUS_BIT;
	prov_svc_data[ADV_DATA_RSSI_IDX] = INT8_MIN;
} else { /* WiFi is connected. */
	prov_svc_data[ADV_DATA_FLAG_IDX] |= ADV_DATA_FLAG_CONN_STATUS_BIT;
	prov_svc_data[ADV_DATA_RSSI_IDX] = status.rssi;
}
C

6. Define the work structures for updating advertisement parameters and data.

Declare the work structures k_work_delayable for updating the advertisement parameters (update_adv_param_work) and updating the advertisement data (update_adv_data_work).

Copy
static struct k_work_delayable update_adv_param_work;
static struct k_work_delayable update_adv_data_work;
C

7. Define the task functions for the work structures.

7.1 Define update_adv_param_task().

In the case where the advertisement data and/or scan response data changes, we need a function that will stop advertising, then starts advertising again with the updated parameters.

Add the following code snippet in main.c

Copy
int err;

err = bt_le_adv_stop();
if (err != 0) {
	LOG_ERR("Cannot stop advertisement: err = %d\n", err);
	return;
}

err = bt_le_adv_start(prov_svc_data[ADV_DATA_FLAG_IDX] & ADV_DATA_FLAG_PROV_STATUS_BIT
			      ? PROV_BT_LE_ADV_PARAM_SLOW
			      : PROV_BT_LE_ADV_PARAM_FAST,
		      ad, ARRAY_SIZE(ad), sd, ARRAY_SIZE(sd));
if (err != 0) {
	LOG_ERR("Cannot start advertisement: err = %d\n", err);
}
C

7.2 Define update_adv_data_task()

Call the function update_wifi_status_in_adv() to update the status through prov_svc_data. Then, update the advertisement and scan response data using bt_le_adv_update_data().

Then reschedule update_adv_data_work.

Add the following code snippet in main.c

Copy
int err;

update_wifi_status_in_adv();
err = bt_le_adv_update_data(ad, ARRAY_SIZE(ad), sd, ARRAY_SIZE(sd));
if (err != 0) {
	LOG_INF("Cannot update advertisement data, err = %d\n", err);
}
k_work_reschedule_for_queue(&adv_daemon_work_q, &update_adv_data_work,
			    K_SECONDS(ADV_DATA_UPDATE_INTERVAL));
C

8. Alter the callback functions for the connected and disconnected connection events.

This is done because when a Bluetooth connection is established, the device will stop advertising and we no longer need to update the advertisement data. However, after a disconnect event, we want the device to start advertising again with updated advertisement data showing the current Wi-Fi status.

8.1 Upon a connected event, we want to cancel update_adv_data_work.

Add the following code snippet to the connected() function in main.c

Copy
k_work_cancel_delayable(&update_adv_data_work);
C

8.2 Upon a disconnected event, reschedule both work items update_adv_param_work and update_adv_data_work.

Add the following code snippet to the disconnected() function in main.c

Copy
k_work_reschedule_for_queue(&adv_daemon_work_q, &update_adv_param_work,
			    K_SECONDS(ADV_PARAM_UPDATE_DELAY));
k_work_reschedule_for_queue(&adv_daemon_work_q, &update_adv_data_work, K_NO_WAIT);
C

9. Enable the Bluetooth Wi-Fi Provisioning Service.

After enabling Bluetooth LE, we initialize the provisioning module using wifi_prov_init().

Add the following code snippet in main()

Copy
err = wifi_prov_init();
if (err == 0) {
	LOG_INF("Wi-Fi provisioning service starts successfully.\n");
} else {
	LOG_ERR("Error occurs when initializing Wi-Fi provisioning service.\n");
	return 0;
}
C

10. Start advertising.

10.1 Prepare the advertisement data.

Copy
struct net_if *iface = net_if_get_default();
struct net_linkaddr *mac_addr = net_if_get_link_addr(iface);
char device_name_str[sizeof(device_name) + 1];

if (mac_addr) {
	update_dev_name(mac_addr);
}
device_name_str[sizeof(device_name_str) - 1] = '\0';
memcpy(device_name_str, device_name, sizeof(device_name));
bt_set_name(device_name_str);
C

10.2 Start advertising using bt_le_adv_start().

Copy
update_wifi_status_in_adv();

err = bt_le_adv_start(prov_svc_data[ADV_DATA_FLAG_IDX] & ADV_DATA_FLAG_PROV_STATUS_BIT ?
	PROV_BT_LE_ADV_PARAM_SLOW : PROV_BT_LE_ADV_PARAM_FAST,
	ad, ARRAY_SIZE(ad), sd, ARRAY_SIZE(sd));
if (err) {
	LOG_ERR("BT Advertising failed to start (err %d)\n", err);
	return 0;
}
LOG_INF("BT Advertising successfully started.\n");
C

11. Initialize all work items to their respective task functions

Initialize the work items update_adv_param_work and update_adv_data_work to their respective task functions and schedule one of them for queue.

Copy
k_work_init_delayable(&update_adv_param_work, update_adv_param_task);
k_work_init_delayable(&update_adv_data_work, update_adv_data_task);
k_work_schedule_for_queue(&adv_daemon_work_q, &update_adv_data_work,
		K_SECONDS(ADV_DATA_UPDATE_INTERVAL));
C

12. Apply stored Wi-Fi credentials.

Copy
net_mgmt(NET_REQUEST_WIFI_CONNECT_STORED, iface, NULL, 0);
C

13. Build and erase & flash the application to your board.

When flashing the application, make sure to select the icon on the right-hand side of the Flash bar, called “Erase and Flash to Board“. Otherwise, the application will connect to the network using credentials from the previous exercise.

This exercise uses the PSA backend for storing the Wi-Fi credentials. Therefore, you must build with TF-M.

BoardBuild with TF-MExtra CMake arguments
nRF7002 DKnrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpuapp/nsN/A
nRF5340 DK + nRF7002 EKnrf5340dk/nrf5340/cpuapp/ns-DSHIELD=nrf7002ek

Turn on the device and wait for it to start up. You should see the following log output when the device is ready to be provisioned
