💅 ath5k_hw_set_def_antenna(9) 💅

okay so welcome to the Kernel API Manual, bestie — this page is all about ath5k_hw_set_def_antenna(9), and it is giving “one very specific wireless-hardware job.” no cap. 🫶

💖 NAME 💖

ath5k_hw_set_def_antenna — Set default rx antenna on AR5211/5212 and newer. That’s the mission, and it’s iconic. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void ath5k_hw_set_def_antenna (struct ath5k_hw *ah , u8 ant );

It returns void, so there is no return value to obsess over. 💀

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• ah — The struct ath5k_hw. That’s the hardware struct, the main character of the argument list. 👑
• ant — Antenna number. Just the antenna number, bestie — don’t overthink it. 🦋
