cfg80211_chandef_identical(9)

okay bestie, welcome to cfg80211_chandef_identical(9) from the Kernel API Manual 💅 this one is literally the vibe check for channel definitions — it asks the big question: are these two things the same or not? 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

cfg80211_chandef_identical — check if two channel definitions are identical ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool cfg80211_chandef_identical (const struct cfg80211_chan_def
       *chandef1 , const struct cfg80211_chan_def *chandef2 );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• chandef1 — the first channel definition 👑
• chandef2 — the second channel definition 🦋

💖 RETURN 💖

It returns true if the channels defined by the channel definitions are identical, and false otherwise. no cap, that’s the whole read 💫

💅 SEE ALSO 💅

like, that's the whole group chat and every single one of them is lowkey iconic in their own way 🦋 seriously, tap any of them and you'll get the full lore — no cap, this list is the syllabus and you're gonna want to bookmark it ✨

and that's a wrap on the whole page, bestie! 🎀 it lives over in ./include/net, and the version/date on the cover is October 2026 — so if you're reading this and it's not giving October 2026 energy, you might be holding an older copy 💅 mwah, go read the source, it slays 🫶💖
