ath5k_hw_rf2425_channel(9)
π ath5k_hw_rf2425_channel β¨
okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual π β this one's a lil function from the ath5k wireless driver and it's literally the one that sets your channel frequency on the RF2425 radio. yes ma'am, we're in the 2GHz zone today π¦
πΈ NAME πΈ
ath5k_hw_rf2425_channel β Set channel frequency on RF2425 π
β SYNOPSIS β
int ath5k_hw_rf2425_channel (struct ath5k_hw *ah , struct
ieee80211_channel *channel );
π«Ά ARGUMENTS π«Ά
ahβ thestruct ath5k_hw, aka ur hardware context bestie, the main character of the whole operation πchannelβ thestruct ieee80211_channel, aka the channel we're trying to tune to, no cap π
π§ DESCRIPTION π§
so here's the tea π: AR2425/2417 have a different 2GHz RF, which means the code has to change a little bit from RF5112. that's it, that's the whole vibe β same job, slightly different hardware flavor β¨ lowkey iconic that it needs its own function, ngl.
π¦ SEE ALSO π¦
like, go read all of these too, fr fr β they're the whole friend group π
