ath5k_disabl...err_counters(9)

💅 ath5k_disable_phy_err_counters — the kernel API manual, but make it make sense

okay so bestie, welcome to the ath5k_disabl...err_counters(9) page 🎀 — it lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's about to be the shortest, most chaotic little glow-down you've ever read. no cap.

---

✨ NAME ✨

ath5k_disable_phy_err_counters — literally just: Disable PHY error counters 🫶

That's it. That's the whole name section. Slay.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void ath5k_disable_phy_err_counters (struct ath5k_hw *ah );

so it returns void (nothing back, she gives nothing and takes nothing 💅) and takes exactly one argument. moving on!

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• ah — the struct ath5k_hw. that's the one and only thing you hand her. your hardware struct, your bestie, your whole personality for this call ✨

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

She disables the PHY error counters for OFDM and CCK timing errors. that's the vibe. that's the entire function. she turns the counters off, she does not elaborate, and honestly? iconic behavior 👑

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

the whole friend group, fr fr — first up, the kernel file ./drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k/ani.c and Basic ANI Operation(9), then:

ngl, read the enable one too — this whole page is basically "do the reverse of ath5k_enable_phy_err_counters" and the sibling energy is unmatched 🙈

so yeah, that's the whole page. short, sweet, disabled counters, periodt 🍓

sign-off time, mwah 💋 — this little number comes to you from ./drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k, dated October 2026, and yes she's still filed under ath5k_disabl...err_counters(9) because the title got truncated and we simply don't fix what's already camp 🧚‍♀️💜
