1.. zephyr:code-sample:: bluetooth_hci_ipc 2 :name: HCI IPC 3 :relevant-api: hci_raw bluetooth 4 5 Expose a Bluetooth controller to another device or CPU using the IPC subsystem. 6 7Overview 8******** 9 10This sample exposes :ref:`bluetooth_controller` support 11to another device or CPU using IPC subsystem. 12 13Requirements 14************ 15 16* A board with IPC subsystem and Bluetooth LE support 17 18Building and Running 19******************** 20 21This sample can be found under :zephyr_file:`samples/bluetooth/hci_ipc` 22in the Zephyr tree. 23 24To use this application, you need a board with a Bluetooth controller 25and IPC support. 26You can then build this application and flash it onto your board in 27the usual way. See :ref:`boards` for board-specific building and 28programming information. 29 30To test this sample, you need a separate device/CPU that acts as Bluetooth 31HCI IPC peer. 32This sample is compatible with the HCI IPC driver provided by 33Zephyr's Bluetooth :ref:`bt_hci_drivers` core. See the 34:kconfig:option:`CONFIG_BT_HCI_IPC` configuration option for more information. 35 36You might need to adjust the Kconfig configuration of this sample to make it 37compatible with the peer application. For example, :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_BT_MAX_CONN` 38must be equal to the maximum number of connections supported by the peer application. 39 40Refer to :zephyr:code-sample-category:`bluetooth` for general information about Bluetooth samples. 41
