ENUM IWL_FW_INI_BUFFER_LOCATION(9)

💅 enum iwl_fw_ini_buffer_location(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨

Okay so picture this: you're deep in the Intel iwlwifi firmware dump soup (iykyk), and somebody hands you a little enum that's basically a map pin 📍 — it tells you where a buffer actually lives. That's the whole vibe of enum iwl_fw_ini_buffer_location, and yes, the name is long, but she's worth it. 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

enum iwl_fw_ini_buffer_location — literally just "buffer location", no cap 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

enum iwl_fw_ini_buffer_location {
    IWL_FW_INI_LOCATION_INVALID ,
    IWL_FW_INI_LOCATION_SRAM_PATH ,
    IWL_FW_INI_LOCATION_DRAM_PATH ,
    IWL_FW_INI_LOCATION_NPK_PATH ,
    IWL_FW_INI_LOCATION_NUM

};

Look at her. Five members, zero drama, absolute icon behavior 👑 (and yes, the commas are spaced like that in the original — leave them alone, she's fine 🙈).

🎀 Constants 🎀

• IWL_FW_INI_LOCATION_INVALID — the placeholder bestie. Literally invalid, does not slay, means nothing valid is picked 💀
• IWL_FW_INI_LOCATION_SRAM_PATH — the buffer is chilling in SRAM. SRAM location, periodt 🌸
• IWL_FW_INI_LOCATION_DRAM_PATH — buffer's hanging out in DRAM instead. DRAM location, she's got range 🦋
• IWL_FW_INI_LOCATION_NPK_PATH — NPK location. NPK main character energy ⭐
• IWL_FW_INI_LOCATION_NUM — the counter babe ✨ she literally just says how many valid locations there are, that's her whole job, and she does it flawlessly 💅

fr fr, IWL_FW_INI_LOCATION_INVALID is the "no thoughts head empty" option — don't treat it like a real location, because it isn't 🚫

🧚 tiny heads-up: some of those names are seriously long. Type them carefully — no autocorrect in C, bestie 😭

and that's the whole page!! ✨💖 this lil beauty came from ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... (that's the source, mwah 💋) and she's dated October 2026 — so she's future-proof AND iconic. bye bestie, go place some buffers 🦋👑🎀
