ENUM CFG80211_CONNECT_PARAMS_CHANGED(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 NAME 💅

enum cfg80211_connect_params_changed — section 9, from the Kernel API Manual — is literally giving Connection parameters being updated, bestie. That's the whole vibe.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Okay so here's the enum in all its tiny glory, no cap:

enum cfg80211_connect_params_changed {
    UPDATE_ASSOC_IES ,
    UPDATE_FILS_ERP_INFO ,
    UPDATE_AUTH_TYPE

};

🎀 Constants 🎀

These are the constants, and yes, we're listing every single one because that's the whole point:

  • UPDATE_ASSOC_IES — says whether association request IEs are updated. Simple, iconic.
  • UPDATE_FILS_ERP_INFO — says that FILS connection parameters are updated, and those are realm, username, erp sequence number, and rrk. Very specific, we love that.
  • UPDATE_AUTH_TYPE — says that the authentication type is updated. Periodt.

🌸 Description 🌸

This enum provides the info on all connect parameters that have to be updated as part of an update_connect_params call. So it's basically the “what changed, bestie?” checklist for that call — each constant flags a different update, and that's it. Clean, useful, lowkey iconic 💖
