πŸ’… ath5k_ani_raise_immunity β€” Kernel API Manual ✨

okay bestie, buckle up, because we're diving into ath5k_ani_raise_immunity(9) from the Kernel API Manual and honestly? she's a little baddie with one very specific job πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

ath5k_ani_raise_immunity β€” literally just "Increase noise immunity", that's her whole personality, no cap πŸ’–


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void ath5k_ani_raise_immunity (struct ath5k_hw *ah , struct
       ath5k_ani_state *as , bool ofdm_trigger );

like yes she returns void, she's not here to give you anything back, she's here to do the work πŸ‘‘


🫢 ARGUMENTS 🫢

  • ah β€” the struct ath5k_hw, your main character hardware struct, the whole vibe πŸ”₯
  • as β€” the struct ath5k_ani_state, the state bestie that's holding all the ANI ~feelings~ πŸ’œ
  • ofdm_trigger β€” if this is true, we got called because there were too many OFDM errors (😭 not the OFDM errors), and in that case the algorithm will tune more parameters than usual. so like, she goes harder. periodt.

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so what she actually does: she tries to raise noise immunity (which, iykyk, means decrease sensitivity) β€” and she does it in several steps, depending on the average RSSI of the beacons we received 🌈

it's giving "adaptive, but make it cute." the beacons said what they said and she's responding accordingly πŸ’…
