Name
       bluetoothd - Bluetooth daemon

SYNOPSIS
       bluetoothd [--version] | [--help]

       bluetoothd   [--nodetach]   [--compat] [--experimental] [--debug=] [--plugin=] [--no‐
       plugin=]

DESCRIPTION
       This manual page documents briefly the bluetoothd daemon, which manages all  the	 Bluetooth  devices.
       bluetoothd can also provide a number of services via the D-Bus message bus system.

OPTIONS
       -v, --version
	      Print bluetoothd version and exit.

       -h, --help
	      Print bluetoothd options and exit.

       -n, --nodetach
	      Enable  logging  in  foreground. Directs log output to the controlling terminal in addition to
	      syslog.

       -f, --configfile
	      Specifies an explicit config file path instead  of  relying  on  the  default  path(/etc/blue‐
	      tooth/main.conf) for the config file.

       -d, --debug=::...
	      Sets  how	 much information bluetoothd sends to the log destination (usually syslog's "daemon"
	      facility). If the file options are omitted, then debugging information  from  all	 the  source
	      files  are  printed. If file options are present, then only debug prints from that source file
	      are printed. The option can be a pattern containing "*" and "?" characters.

	      Example: --debug=src/adapter.c:src/agent.c

       -p, --plugin=,,..
	      Load these plugins only. The option can be a pattern containing  "*" and "?" characters.

       -P, --noplugin=,,..
	      Never load these plugins. The option can be a pattern containing "*" and "?"  characters.

       -C, --compat
	      Provide deprecated command line interfaces.

       -E, --experimental
	      Enable D-Bus experimental interfaces.  These interfaces are not guaranteed to be compatible or
	      present in future releases.

       -T, --testing
	      Enable D-Bus testing interfaces.	These interfaces are only meant for test validation  of	 the
	      internals of bluetoothd and shall not never be used by anything other than that.

       -K, --kernel=,,...
	      Enable  Kernel experimental features. Kernel experimental features are considered unstable and
	      may be removed from future kernel releases.

FILES
       /etc/bluetooth/main.conf
	      Location of the global configuration file.
