cfg80211_pmsr_report(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ¦‹ cfg80211_pmsr_report β€” fresh from the Kernel API Manual πŸ¦‹

πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

cfg80211_pmsr_report β€” okay so this is the function that reports peer measurement result data. That's literally the whole vibe. ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void cfg80211_pmsr_report (struct wireless_dev *wdev , struct
       cfg80211_pmsr_request *req , struct cfg80211_pmsr_result *result , gfp_t
       gfp );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • wdev β€” the wireless device that's out here reporting the measurement. main character energy, honestly πŸ’…
  • req β€” the original measurement request. like, the receipts for what was asked 🧾✨
  • result β€” the result data. the actual tea being handed over πŸ“
  • gfp β€” allocation flags. yep, that's it 🫢

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

okay so this is the part where the page just lists everyone 😭 like the whole friend group showing up for the group photo, no skips, no "etc.", no "you get the idea". every single one is here, and yes they all rock the (9) suffix, that's just the fit they're wearing πŸ’…

  • Kernel file ./include/net/cfg80211.h β€” the actual source file where all this lore lives, bestie. bookmark it fr fr.
