- :const:`BTPROTO_RFCOMM` accepts ``(bdaddr, channel)`` where ``bdaddr``
is the Bluetooth address as a string and ``channel`` is an integer.

- :const:`BTPROTO_HCI` accepts ``(device_id,)`` where ``device_id`` is
either an integer or a string with the Bluetooth address of the
interface. (This depends on your OS; NetBSD and DragonFlyBSD expect
a Bluetooth address while everything else expects an integer.)

On Linux it accepts a tuple ``(device_id,)`` where ``device_id``

Is this BSD and Linux-only or are other OSes supported as well?

The current doc says "everything else" accepts an integer.

In code, it is "other OSes". But I have not found information about any other OSes that support this. Windows is not supported. Until recently, FreeBSD was in "other OSes", but this was a bug (see #131668).

There is no availability directive for BTPROTO_L2CAP and BTPROTO_SCO, and I am not sure what we could write there.
