brcmf_p2p_s..._p2p_request(9)

💅 brcmf_p2p_s..._p2p_request(9) — a Kernel API Manual moment ✨

okay so bestie, buckle in, because today we're reading a page from the Kernel API Manual and honestly? it's a short one, which is a vibe. this whole thing lives in the brcm80211/brcmfmac wireless brain trust, and it's doing exactly one (1) job, but it's doing it flawlessly. let's go 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

brcmf_p2p_scan_is_p2p_request — literally just answering "is this cfg80211 scan request a P2P scan?" like the little detective it is 🔍

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool brcmf_p2p_scan_is_p2p_request (struct cfg80211_scan_request
*request );

she takes one struct cfg80211_scan_request pointer and hands you back a bool, no cap 💜

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• request — the scan request as received from cfg80211. that's it. that's the whole input. she came from cfg80211 and she's ready to be judged 👑

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

the way this function is so simple and still so iconic?? 😭

it returns true if one of the ssids in the request matches the P2P wildcard ssid. otherwise — and hear me out — it returns false. that's the entire plot. no plot twists, no side quests, just a clean lil boolean check and honestly? main character energy 🌈

lowkey obsessed with how this page is 90% SEE ALSO. the function is four lines of logic and forty-five friends. that's balance 💀
