ENUM IWL_SAP_ICMPV6_FILTER_FLAGS(9)
π enum iwl_sap_icmpv6_filter_flags(9) π
okay bestie, so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual β yes, the actual kernel docs β and it's about a lil enum called enum iwl_sap_icmpv6_filter_flags. That's the ICMPv6 filter flags, and honestly? It's a short one. A little snack. Let's get into it π
β¨ NAME β¨
enum iwl_sap_icmpv6_filter_flags β ICMPv6 filter flags, bestie. That's literally it, that's the whole name. Short, sweet, iconic.
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
Here's the shape of it, no cap:
enum iwl_sap_icmpv6_filter_flags {
SAP_ICMPV6_FILTER_ENABLED ,
SAP_ICMPV6_FILTER_COPY
};
Two constants. Two. That's the whole enum. Lowkey minimalist of it π
π¦ Constants π¦
okay so here's what each one actually does, and you gotta read these carefully because the first one is giving "wait, what?" energy:
SAP_ICMPV6_FILTER_ENABLEDβ bestie. If this is false, the filter should be ignored. That's it, that's the doc. Yes, the flag is literally named "ENABLED" and the description is about what happens when it's false β I don't make the rules, I just report them fr fr. πSAP_ICMPV6_FILTER_COPYβ wait, wrong tag, let me redo:SAP_ICMPV6_FILTER_COPYβ this one passes packets to the host. That's the whole vibe: packets come in, host gets them. Simple. Clean. Slay. β¨
Heads up bestie: those one-liners are all the description the original gives. I'm not gonna invent extra behaviour for you β no guessing, no speculation, we respect the docs in this group chat π«Ά
π₯ SEE ALSO π₯
okay this is the part where the original just goes absolutely feral and dumps the entire sibling list. Buckle up, it's a lot, and I'm keeping every single one because they all matter π
- The kernel file itself:
./drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mei/sap.hβ that's the main character right there π

likeβ¦ that's the whole friend group. every filter flag enum and every struct in the sap.h universe showed up to the party and honestly? obsessed. π
ngl bestie, if you only remember one thing: two constants, one means "ignore me if false," the other means "send packets to the host." That's the tea β
