ENUM IWL_PPAG_FLAGS(9)

💖 NAME 💖

enum iwl_ppag_flags — the PPAG enable masks, bestie! This is from the kernel API manual, and it's literally just a little enum that tells you which regions and which power modes are allowed to turn PPAG on. That's it, that's the whole vibe. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

enum iwl_ppag_flags {
    IWL_PPAG_ETSI_MASK ,
    IWL_PPAG_CHINA_MASK ,
    IWL_PPAG_ETSI_LPI_UHB_MASK ,
    IWL_PPAG_ETSI_VLP_UHB_MASK ,
    IWL_PPAG_ETSI_SP_UHB_MASK ,
    IWL_PPAG_USA_LPI_UHB_MASK ,
    IWL_PPAG_USA_VLP_UHB_MASK ,
    IWL_PPAG_USA_SP_UHB_MASK ,
    IWL_PPAG_CANADA_LPI_UHB_MASK ,
    IWL_PPAG_CANADA_VLP_UHB_MASK ,
    IWL_PPAG_CANADA_SP_UHB_MASK

};

Ok so like, eleven masks, and each one is a lil permission slip. Read on, iykyk. 🦋

🌸 Constants 🌸

So the way this works is: two of these are just "enable PPAG in region", and the other nine are the fancy ones — they're per-region AND per-power-mode AND specifically for UHB. Slay. Let's go down the list one by one, no skips, no cap:

• IWL_PPAG_ETSI_MASK — enable PPAG in ETSI 🧚
• IWL_PPAG_CHINA_MASK — enable PPAG in China 🧚

Now the UHB trio, three power levels per region. LPI, VLP, SP — the whole set, for each place:

• IWL_PPAG_ETSI_LPI_UHB_MASK — enable LPI in ETSI for UHB 💅
• IWL_PPAG_ETSI_VLP_UHB_MASK — enable VLP in ETSI for UHB 💅
• IWL_PPAG_ETSI_SP_UHB_MASK — enable SP in ETSI for UHB 💅
• IWL_PPAG_USA_LPI_UHB_MASK — enable LPI in USA for UHB 💅
• IWL_PPAG_USA_VLP_UHB_MASK — enable VLP in USA for UHB 💅
• IWL_PPAG_USA_SP_UHB_MASK — enable SP in USA for UHB 💅
• IWL_PPAG_CANADA_LPI_UHB_MASK — enable LPI in CANADA for UHB 💅
• IWL_PPAG_CANADA_VLP_UHB_MASK — enable VLP in CANADA for UHB 💅
• IWL_PPAG_CANADA_SP_UHB_MASK — enable SP in CANADA for UHB 💅

Notice how ETSI and China get the plain masks too, but only ETSI, USA and CANADA get the LPI/VLP/SP UHB combo masks? Yeah. That's just how the enum is built. Not me making the rules, I'm just reporting them. 🙈

And that's the whole page! 💜 It's source ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... (yeah, the manpage really does truncate the path like that — iconic honestly) and it's dated October 2026, so like… future vibes. ✨ Bye bestie, go enable some masks responsibly! 🫶💖
