>> So I am wondering if we make this too complicated. Since generally speaking we can only have a single HCI connect complete anyway at a time. No matter if the controller serializes it for us or we do it for the controller. So hci_conn_add could just process the queue for packets with its handle and then flush it. And it can flush it no matter what since whatever other packets are in the queue, they can not be valid.
>> 
>> That said, we wouldn’t even need to check the packet handles at all. We just needed to flag them as already out-of-order queued once and hand them back into the rx_q at the top. Then the would be processed as usual. Already ooo packets would cause the same error as before if it is for a non-existing handle and others would end up being processed.
>>

my reading from the LL state machine is that once the first LL_Connect_Req is processes, the controller moves out of the advertising state. So no other LL_Connect_Req can be processed. So that means that connection attempts are serialized.

Now if you run AE and multiple instances, that might be different, but then again, these instances are also offset in time and so I don’t see how we can get more than one HCI_Connection_Complete event at a time (and with that a leading ACL packet).
