ENUM IWL_AGG_STATE(9)

✨ enum iwl_agg_state(9) ✨

okay bestie, buckle up 💖 this is enum iwl_agg_state(9), straight out of the Kernel API Manual — yes, that manual. it's giving kernel-internals-realness and honestly? slay.

🦋 NAME 🦋

enum iwl_agg_state — the aggregation state, bestie. that's it, that's the name. short, sweet, iconic.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

enum iwl_agg_state {
    IWL_AGG_OFF ,
    IWL_AGG_STARTING ,
    IWL_AGG_ON ,
    IWL_EMPTYING_HW_QUEUE_ADDBA ,
    IWL_EMPTYING_HW_QUEUE_DELBA

};

like, that's the whole enum. five little guys. five states. a whole journey, fr fr 🎀

💅 Constants 💅

• IWL_AGG_OFF — aggregation isn't being used at all. we're off. we're chilling. not it, we're not doing aggregation rn ✨
• IWL_AGG_STARTING — aggregation are starting — yes the original says "are", we're keeping it, character-for-character, no cap 😭 — this is the in-between moment, between start and oper 🦋
• IWL_AGG_ON — the aggregation session is UP, bestie! we're live! main character energy 👑
• IWL_EMPTYING_HW_QUEUE_ADDBA — establishing a BA session, and we're waiting for the HW queue to be empty from packets for this RA /TID. patiently. like. waiting. 🙈
• IWL_EMPTYING_HW_QUEUE_DELBA — tearing down a BA session, also waiting for the HW queue to be empty from packets for this RA /TID. different vibes, same waiting ✨

🌈 Description 🌈

so this is the state machine of the BA agreement establishment / tear down 💜 and lowkey the key detail: these states relate to a specific RA / TID. not a global vibe — a specific one, iykyk.

ngl, it's a state machine, so like — respect the transitions. that's where it lives.
