ath5k_hw_phy_calibrate(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🌸 NAME 🌸

Okay bestie, welcome to ath5k_hw_phy_calibrate(9) from the Kernel API Manual — the page where we perform a PHY calibration and try to make the radio behave. 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Here's the exact signature, no edits, no cap:

int ath5k_hw_phy_calibrate (struct ath5k_hw *ah , struct
       ieee80211_channel *channel );

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

  • ah — this is the struct ath5k_hw you're handing over, the whole hardware vibe. 🫶
  • channel — this is the struct ieee80211_channel; literally the channel info that gets passed along. 🦋

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So the tea is: this is the main function we call from above to perform a short or full PHY calibration — and which kind it does depends on the RF chip and the current channel. No cap, that's the whole description, and it's iconic. 💅
