ENUM IWL_MVM_COMMAND_GROUPS(9)

💅 enum iwl_mvm_command_groups(9) — like, the Kernel API Manual moment

okay bestie, so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it's all about the command groups for the firmware. yes it's a whole enum. yes it's iconic. let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

enum iwl_mvm_command_groups — the command groups for the firmware, that's the whole vibe 💖

look at her. thirteen constants. all lowercase-obedient and alphabetical-adjacent. slay 🌟

🎀 Constants 🎀

so each of these is a group, right, and each one is basically a whole little neighborhood of command IDs — and the group tells you which enum the IDs come from. iykyk. here's the full roster, no skips, no shortcuts:

• LEGACY_GROUP — the legacy group 💀 it pulls its command IDs from enum iwl_legacy_cmds. old but still main character energy.
• LONG_GROUP — legacy group but with the long header 😭 also uses command IDs from enum iwl_legacy_cmds. same source, bigger fit.
• SYSTEM_GROUP — system group, uses command IDs from enum iwl_system_subcmd_ids 🧚
• MAC_CONF_GROUP — MAC configuration group, uses command IDs from enum iwl_mac_conf_subcmd_ids 🦋
• PHY_OPS_GROUP — PHY operations group, uses command IDs from enum iwl_phy_ops_subcmd_ids 🔥
• DATA_PATH_GROUP — data path group, uses command IDs from enum iwl_data_path_subcmd_ids ⭐
• SCAN_GROUP — scan group, uses command IDs from enum iwl_scan_subcmd_ids 🍓
• LOCATION_GROUP — location group, uses command IDs from enum iwl_location_subcmd_ids 🌸
• BT_COEX_GROUP — bt coex group, uses command IDs from enum iwl_bt_coex_subcmd_ids 💜
• PROT_OFFLOAD_GROUP — protocol offload group, uses command IDs from enum iwl_prot_offload_subcmd_ids 🌈
• REGULATORY_AND_NVM_GROUP — regulatory/NVM group, uses command IDs from enum iwl_regulatory_and_nvm_subcmd_ids 👑 the way that name just keeps going
• DEBUG_GROUP — Debug group, uses command IDs from enum iwl_debug_cmds 🙈 (yes it's capitalized in the original, we respect the capitalization, periodt)
• STATISTICS_GROUP — Statistics group, uses command IDs from enum iwl_statistics_subcmd_ids 💖

ngl, the pattern is: group ➡️ which enum the subcommand IDs live in. memorize it once and you're set, fr fr.

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

go read these next, bestie, they're the supporting cast and they ate:

• Kernel file ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/fw/api/commands.h — enum iwl_legacy_cmds(9)
• enum iwl_system_subcmd_ids(9)
• enum iwl_statistics_subcmd_ids(9)

and that's the page!! 🌸 sign-off time: this lives with the source over at ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i..., dated October 2026, and you can find it filed under enum iwl_mvm_command_groups(9) — periodt, go touch some firmware 💅✨
