ath5k_ani_s...r_phy_errors(9)

👑 ath5k_ani_save_and_clear_phy_errors — from the Kernel API Manual 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for ath5k_ani_save_and_clear_phy_errors(9), and honestly? she's a little emergency-cleanup icon and we're gonna stan. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

ath5k_ani_save_and_clear_phy_errors — Clear and save PHY error counters 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int ath5k_ani_save_and_clear_phy_errors (struct ath5k_hw *ah , struct
ath5k_ani_state *as );

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• ah — literally the struct ath5k_hw, that's the hardware baddie herself 🫶
• as — and this one's the struct ath5k_ani_state, the state bestie keeping track of things 💜

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so the whole vibe here is: clear the PHY error counters as soon as possible, because this might get called from a MIB interrupt and we really don't wanna get interrupted again — like, no cap, the drama is real 😭. Then add the count of CCK and OFDM errors to our internal state so the algorithm can use it later. Yeah, we're being organized. We're that girl. 💅

She also gets called from interrupt and tasklet context — so multitasking queen behavior, fr fr. 👑

And the return tea ☕: returns 0 if both counters are zero. That's it. That's the condition. ⭐
