ca8210_set_frame_retries(9)

💅 ca8210_set_frame_retries(9) 💅

okay so bestie, this one is from the Kernel API Manual, and it’s the lil’ setting that tells the ca8210 how many times to retry a frame. Periodt ✨

📛 NAME 📛

ca8210_set_frame_retries — sets the maximum frame retries of the ca8210 💖

---

🛠️ SYNOPSIS 🛠️

int ca8210_set_frame_retries (struct ieee802154_hw *hw , s8 retries );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• hw — the ieee802154_hw of target ca8210 🫶
• retries — Number of retries 💅

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

This sets how many times a transmission gets retried if an acknowledgment was requested and nothing came back from the other end. So yeah, it’s the run-it-back count for a transmission when an ack was asked for and didn’t show up 🔥

---

🌀 RETURN 🌀

0 or linux error code 😌
