✨ enum iwl_ucode_tlv_api(9) ✨

okay bestie, gather round 🫶 this one lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's literally the master list of "hey, this firmware can do the thing" flags. no cap, it's giving very much VIP list energy 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

enum iwl_ucode_tlv_api — the ucode api ✨ (yes that's the whole name, short and iconic, we love a minimal queen 👑

like, that's the whole roster. thirty-four icons plus the counter at the end. no notes. 👑

🦋 Constants 🦋

okay so each one of these is a little "the firmware ate and left no crumbs" announcement. going down the list one by one, no skipping, we don't do that here 💖

  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_FRAGMENTED_SCAN — this ucode supports an active dwell time that's longer than the passive one, which is literally essential for fragmented scan. it's giving "i can stay a lil longer when i wanna" energy ✨
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_WIFI_MCC_UPDATE — ucode supports MCC updates with source. the receipts are included, iykyk 🧾
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_LQ_SS_PARAMS — configure STBC/BFER via LQ CMD ss_params 💅
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_NEW_VERSION — new versioning format. glow-up era ⭐
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_SCAN_TSF_REPORT — scan start time gets reported in the scan iteration complete notification, and the timestamp reported for RX received during scan gets reported in the TSF of the mac specified in the scan request. timestamps are so main character 🕐
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_TKIP_MIC_KEYS — this ucode supports version 2 of ADD_MODIFY_STA_KEY_API_S_VER_2 🔐
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_STA_TYPE — this ucode supports station type assignement. (that spelling is theirs, not mine, hand to heart 🫶)
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_NAN2_VER2 — this ucode supports NAN API version 2 🌈
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_ADAPTIVE_DWELL — support for adaptive dwell in scanning 🦋
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_OCE — support for OCE ✨
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_NEW_BEACON_TEMPLATE — new beacon template 🎀
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_NEW_RX_STATS — "should new RX STATISTICS API be used" — yes bestie, the question is the answer 💀
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_WOWLAN_KEY_MATERIAL — WoWLAN key material support 🔑
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_QUOTA_LOW_LATENCY — the Quota command includes a field indicating low latency direction 🏎️
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_DEPRECATE_TTAK — the RX status flag TTAK ok (bit 7) is deprecated. it's over for that bit, we don't talk to it anymore 💀
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_ADAPTIVE_DWELL_V2 — this ucode supports version 8 of scan request: SCAN_REQUEST_CMD_UMAC_API_S_VER_8 🦋
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_FRAG_EBS — this ucode supports fragmented EBS ✨
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_REDUCE_TX_POWER — this ucode supports v5 of the REDUCE_TX_POWER_CMD 🔥
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_SHORT_BEACON_NOTIF — this ucode supports the short version of the beacon notification. brevity ate 👑
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_BEACON_FILTER_V4 — this ucode supports v4 of BEACON_FILTER_CONFIG_API_S_VER_4 🎀
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_REGULATORY_NVM_INFO — this ucode supports v4 of REGULATORY_NVM_GET_INFO_RSP_API_S 📋
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_FTM_NEW_RANGE_REQ — this ucode supports v7 of LOCATION_RANGE_REQ_CMD_API_S and v6 of LOCATION_RANGE_RESP_NTFY_API_S 📍
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_SCAN_OFFLOAD_CHANS — this ucode supports v2 of SCAN_OFFLOAD_PROFILE_MATCH_RESULTS_S and v3 of SCAN_OFFLOAD_PROFILES_QUERY_RSP_S 🔍
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_MBSSID_HE — this ucode supports v2 of STA_CONTEXT_DOT11AX_API_S 🦋
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_WOWLAN_TCP_SYN_WAKE — WoWLAN TCP-SYN wake support 🐚
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_FTM_RTT_ACCURACY — version 7 of the range response API is supported by FW, and this indicates the RTT confidence value 📏
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_SAR_TABLE_VER — this ucode supports different sar version tables 📊
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_REDUCED_SCAN_CONFIG — this ucode supports v3 of SCAN_CONFIG_DB_CMD_API_S ⚙️
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_ADWELL_HB_DEF_N_AP — support for setting adaptive dwell number of APs in the 5 GHz band 📶
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_SCAN_EXT_CHAN_VER — extended channel config in scan 📡
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_BAND_IN_RX_DATA — FW reports band number in RX notification 🌈
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_NO_HOST_DISABLE_TX — firmware offloaded the station disable tx logic. host said "not my job anymore" and honestly? fair 💅
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_INT_DBG_BUF_CLEAR — firmware supports clearing the debug internal buffer 🧹
  • IWL_UCODE_TLV_API_SMART_FIFO_OFFLOAD — firmware doesn't need the host to configure the smart fifo 🧚
  • NUM_IWL_UCODE_TLV_API — number of bits used. the final boss, the counter, the "and that's the whole list" ✅
