cfg80211_iter_combinations(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

hey bestie 💖 this is the manual page for cfg80211_iter_combinations(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and it’s lowkey all about iterating over matching combinations. iconic behavior, honestly ✨

💖 NAME 💖

cfg80211_iter_combinations — iterate over matching combinations 🌀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int cfg80211_iter_combinations (struct wiphy *wiphy , struct
       iface_combination_params *params , void (*iter)(const struct
       ieee80211_iface_combination *c, void *data) , void *data );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • wiphy — the wiphy 🫶
  • params — the interface combinations parameter 📋
  • iter — function to call for each matching combination 🔁
  • data — pointer to pass to the iter function 🎯

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here’s the vibe: this function can be called by the driver to check what possible combinations it fits in at a given moment — like, for channel switching purposes, for example 👀✨

⭐ RETURN ⭐

0 on success. Non-zero on error 💅

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

okay so this section is lowkey the whole friend group 😭 — it's the cross-references list, and it is long, like the group chat when someone says "drop your spotify wrapped". Every single one of these is a page the manpage points you at, so here they all are, in the exact order the original gives them. No skipping, no "you get the idea" — we don't do that here 💅
