✨ NAME ✨

batadv_is_wifi — check if flags belong to wifi interface

like, that's literally the whole job. you hand it flags, it tells you if those flags are giving wifi. 🦋

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool batadv_is_wifi (u32 wifi_flags );

that's it. one argument, returns a bool. short and sweet, we love a low-parameter-count king 👑

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• wifi_flags — an extracted batadv_hard_iface_wifi_flags of a net_device. so like, you pull the wifi flags off a net device first, then you pass them in here. it's a handoff, a little relay race 🏃‍♀️

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

returns true if the net device is a 802.11 wireless device, and false otherwise. simple as that. no in-between, no "maybe", no situationship — it's true or false, periodt. 💅

ngl this page is a short one but honestly? sometimes the little helper functions are the main character energy of the whole module. check your flags, know your device, slay. ✨
