For sure.
There's no problem in allocating a new link type code for BT.
If I remember well, libpcap actually already defines a linktype for BT (i would
need to check). The important thing is defining the frame format used with such
link type.
Have a nice day

support
Hi, sorry to hijack the
thread, but does anyone know if there will be a link type code available for
Bluetooth in pcap-ng?
Thanks, Tyson.

No wonder, the corresponding line in the
code says: /* XXX - convert
timestamps into nsecs */ ;-)

The timestamps currently won't work, but shouldn't
be too hard to fix.
I'll have a look ...

P.S: The FCS is also not decoded, Wireshark will internally
always
handle pcapng as: "don't know if FCS is there"
