The AF_BLUETOOTH socket type lacks support for specifying CID and address type in sockaddr_l2. These structure members have been present since 2009 and 2012 respectively: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/bluetooth/bluez.git/commit/?id=3de95535 https://git.kernel.org/cgit/bluetooth/bluez.git/commit/?id=ba801fcd The current version of the full structure can be found here: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/bluetooth/bluez.git/tree/lib/l2cap.h?id=1b9e48f4#n40 The Python code in question can be found here: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/4f9794dbcaa6ee7ddc6ab175a57e7f01ebe64353/Modules/socketmodule.c#L1108

AF_BLUETOOTH also lacks support for hci_channel in sockaddr_hci for BTPROTO_HCI sockets: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/bluetooth/bluez.git/tree/lib/hci.h?h=5.37#n2340 This feature has been present in BlueZ since 2010: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/bluetooth/bluez.git/commit/?id=12d02e7f (Note that the latest BlueZ release includes a total of five different channels that should be supported)
