[PATCH v2] Bluetooth: hci_event: fix simultaneous discovery stuck in FINDING

From: Jiajia Liu

Date: Tue Jun 02 2026 - 03:06:30 EST


When hci_inquiry_complete_evt is called between le_scan_disable and
le_set_scan_enable_complete and no remote name needs to be resolved,
the interleaved discovery with SIMULTANEOUS quirk gets stuck in
DISCOVERY_FINDING. le_set_scan_enable_complete does not check inquiry
state. No one sets DISCOVERY_STOPPED in this process.

Add state check in le_set_scan_enable_complete and change state if
the state is DISCOVERY_FINDING. Tested with AX201 (8087:0026) in Dell
Vostro 13. Discovering disabled MGMT Event below is reported when
running into the above condition.
