ENUM IWL_SAP_IPV4_FILTER_FLAGS(9)
π enum iwl_sap_ipv4_filter_flags β Kernel API Manual β¨
okay so bestie, welcome to the glow-up of this little kernel API page π this is the enum iwl_sap_ipv4_filter_flags entry from the Kernel API Manual, and it's genuinely so cute and tidy. no cap.
π NAME π
enum iwl_sap_ipv4_filter_flags β this enum is the one used in &struct iwl_sap_ipv4_filter π«Ά like, that's its whole job, and it's serving.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
here's the whole squad in declaration order, no skips, no edits:
enum iwl_sap_ipv4_filter_flags {
SAP_IPV4_FILTER_ICMP_PASS ,
SAP_IPV4_FILTER_ICMP_COPY ,
SAP_IPV4_FILTER_ARP_REQ_PASS ,
SAP_IPV4_FILTER_ARP_REQ_COPY ,
SAP_IPV4_FILTER_ARP_RESP_PASS ,
SAP_IPV4_FILTER_ARP_RESP_COPY
};
periodt. six members, all accounted for π
πΈ Constants πΈ
every single one of these is a main character, so let's do them justice π
SAP_IPV4_FILTER_ICMP_PASSβ passes ICMP packets over to CSME π¦SAP_IPV4_FILTER_ICMP_COPYβ passes ICMP packets to the host πΈSAP_IPV4_FILTER_ARP_REQ_PASSβ passes ARP requests to CSME β¨SAP_IPV4_FILTER_ARP_REQ_COPYβ passes ARP requests to the host πSAP_IPV4_FILTER_ARP_RESP_PASSβ passes ARP responses to CSME π₯SAP_IPV4_FILTER_ARP_RESP_COPYβ passes ARP responses to the host π
not me noticing the patternβ¦ ICMP and ARP, each with a PASS and a COPY variant, and each destination stated plainly. it's giving structure. it's giving consistency. iykyk π
π SEE ALSO π
bestie there are SO many siblings, and i'm listing every single one because we do not ghost family in this house π

likeβ¦ the whole filter-flag friend group showed up π and yes, enum iwl_sap_eth_filter_flags(9), enum iwl_sap_flex_filter_flags(9), enum iwl_sap_ipv6_filter_flags(9), enum iwl_sap_icmpv6_filter_flags(9) and enum iwl_sap_vlan_filter_flags(9) are all here too β the filter flags are lowkey a whole dynasty β¨
π‘ quick vibe check: this page is literally just the enum definition plus its six constants β no options, no defaults, no exit statuses, no bugs section. sometimes a page is short and that's iconic. don't go looking for extra lore that isn't there π
and that's the whole thing, bestie π«Ά this came out of the kernel doc source at ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... and it's dated October 2026, so mark your calendar and stan responsibly β mwah π
