ENUM BRCMF_PROFILE_FWAUTH(9)

✨ enum brcmf_profile_fwauth(9) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 💖 this one's a little enum from the Broadcom brcmfmac wireless driver world, and honestly? it's giving "small but mighty." let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

enum brcmf_profile_fwauth — the firmware authenticator profile, aka the vibe check for how your firmware handles auth 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

enum brcmf_profile_fwauth {
    BRCMF_PROFILE_FWAUTH_NONE ,
    BRCMF_PROFILE_FWAUTH_PSK ,
    BRCMF_PROFILE_FWAUTH_SAE

};

🎀 Constants 🎀

bestie, there are literally three of them and they each have a whole personality:

• BRCMF_PROFILE_FWAUTH_NONE — no firmware authenticator. that's it, that's the whole thing. nothing's doing auth in firmware, periodt 🙈
• BRCMF_PROFILE_FWAUTH_PSK — the authenticator for WPA/WPA2-PSK 🔥 the classic, the icon, the one everyone knows
• BRCMF_PROFILE_FWAUTH_SAE — the authenticator for SAE ✨ (yes, that one — WPA3 energy, we love to see it)
