ENUM IWL_RX_PHY_FLAGS(9)

💅 NAME 💅

ok so enum iwl_rx_phy_flags — it's the enum you use to parse the phy_flags field inside %iwl_rx_phy_info 🫶 that's literally the whole job, bestie.

(this is the enum iwl_rx_phy_flags(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, if u were wondering ✨)

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here's the whole squad, exactly as they're declared, no cap:

enum iwl_rx_phy_flags {
    RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_BAND_24 ,
    RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_MOD_CCK ,
    RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_SHORT_PREAMBLE ,
    RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_NARROW_BAND ,
    RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_ANTENNA ,
    RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_ANTENNA_POS ,
    RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_AGG ,
    RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_OFDM_HT ,
    RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_OFDM_GF ,
    RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_OFDM_VHT

};

👑 Constants 👑

okay, member-by-member breakdown, and every single one gets its moment 💖

• RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_BAND_24 — true if the packet was received on 2.4 band 🌸 like, the lil 2.4GHz band. that's the vibe check.
• RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_MOD_CCK — modulation is CCK. that's what it means, that's what it does 💅
• RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_SHORT_PREAMBLE — true if packet's preamble was short. short king preamble 👑
• RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_NARROW_BAND — narrow band (<20 MHz) receive. tiny bandwidth, big energy ✨
• RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_ANTENNA — antenna on which the packet was received. which antenna ate? 📡
• RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_ANTENNA_POS — antenna bit position. it's giving where in the bits, iykyk 🎀
• RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_AGG — set if the packet was part of an A-MPDU. group chat packet fr fr 🫶
• RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_OFDM_HT — The frame was an HT frame. HT frame main character energy 🔥
• RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_OFDM_GF — The frame used GF preamble. (GF preamble, iconic behavior honestly) 🌈
• RX_RES_PHY_FLAGS_OFDM_VHT — The frame was a VHT frame. very high throughput, very high slay 💀✨

ok that's a lot of cross-references but that's the assignment and we don't skip, bestie. every single one matters 🫶

aand that's the page!! 🌟 source/version line says ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... and the date stamp is October 2026, so like, mark ur calendar bestie, this one's dated October 2026 💜 byeeee 💅🎀
