ENUM IWL_DBG_TLV_TYPE(9)
π enum iwl_dbg_tlv_type β debug TLV types (kernel API manual, bestie)
okay so picture this: you're deep in the iwlwifi debug TLV situation and you need to know which kind of TLV you're looking at. That's literally this entire page. It's an enum, it's got seven constants, and yes we're gonna go through every single one because that's what we do here. β¨
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
enum iwl_dbg_tlv_type {
IWL_DBG_TLV_TYPE_DEBUG_INFO ,
IWL_DBG_TLV_TYPE_BUF_ALLOC ,
IWL_DBG_TLV_TYPE_HCMD ,
IWL_DBG_TLV_TYPE_REGION ,
IWL_DBG_TLV_TYPE_TRIGGER ,
IWL_DBG_TLV_TYPE_CONF_SET ,
IWL_DBG_TLV_TYPE_NUM
};
like, that's the whole vibe. seven entries, in this exact order, no notes. π«Ά
π CONSTANTS π
bestie these are the actual members, let's meet them:
IWL_DBG_TLV_TYPE_DEBUG_INFOβ the debug info TLV πIWL_DBG_TLV_TYPE_BUF_ALLOCβ the buffer allocation TLV πΈIWL_DBG_TLV_TYPE_HCMDβ the host command TLV πIWL_DBG_TLV_TYPE_REGIONβ the region TLV π¦IWL_DBG_TLV_TYPE_TRIGGERβ the trigger TLV βIWL_DBG_TLV_TYPE_CONF_SETβ the conf set TLV πIWL_DBG_TLV_TYPE_NUMβ the number of debug TLVs π₯ (yes it's a count, not a type, she's doing double duty, we love her)
π SEE ALSO π
go look at the kernel file fr fr, no cap:
./drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/iwl-dbg-tlv.cstruct iwl_dbg_tlv_ver_data(9)struct iwl_dbg_tlv_timer_node(9)
iykyk π
okay that's the whole page. if you skimmed and only remember one thing, remember IWL_DBG_TLV_TYPE_NUM is the count, not a type. that's the trap. go forth and slay. π
and that's a wrap, bestie π§ β this little love letter came out of ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i..., dated October 2026, and it lives under the name enum iwl_dbg_tlv_type(9). periodt. β¨
