ath5k_hw_setup_rx_desc(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 ath5k_hw_setup_rx_desc(9) — like, the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨

Okay so picture this: you're deep in the ath5k wireless driver situation, and there's this one little function that gets your rx control descriptor all cute and ready to go. That's her. That's ath5k_hw_setup_rx_desc. She's giving main character energy in the Kernel API Manual and honestly? Obsessed. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

ath5k_hw_setup_rx_desc — initialize an rx control descriptor, periodt 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ath5k_hw_setup_rx_desc (struct ath5k_hw *ah , struct ath5k_desc
*desc , u32 size , unsigned int flags );

That's the whole vibe check right there — she takes four things and hands you back an int. No cap. 🦋

🧚 ARGUMENTS 🧚

  • ah — the struct ath5k_hw. That's your hardware struct, the main squeeze of the whole operation 💖
  • desc — the struct ath5k_desc. Your descriptor, the lil' note that tells everyone what's up ✨
  • size — RX buffer length, and it's in bytes (important!! don't come at me with your other units 🙈)
  • flags — one of the AR5K_RXDESC_* flags. Literally one. Pick one, bestie, iykyk 🌈

👀 SEE ALSO 👀

Basically the whole descriptor friend group 💀 they all show up together, it's a whole thing.

Lowkey a friendly heads up: you're gonna want to double-check those AR5K_RXDESC_* flags before you pass one in, because one of is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence and she means it. 💜

And that's the page, bestie!! 🌟 This icon was brought to you by the ./drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k source tree, version date October 2026, and the manual page ath5k_hw_setup_rx_desc(9) — slay, go forth, and initialize those descriptors responsibly 💅🎀🦋
