ENUM IWL_UMAC_SCAN_GENERAL_FLAGS2(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… enum iwl_umac_scan_general_flags2(9)

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and this one is literally the second round of UMAC scan general flags β€” yes, the sequel, and honestly it ate ✨


✨ NAME ✨

enum iwl_umac_scan_general_flags2 β€” UMAC scan general flags #2 πŸŽ€ (the encore, the part two, the flags but make it general, again)


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

enum iwl_umac_scan_general_flags2 {
    IWL_UMAC_SCAN_GEN_FLAGS2_NOTIF_PER_CHNL ,
    IWL_UMAC_SCAN_GEN_FLAGS2_ALLOW_CHNL_REORDER ,
    IWL_UMAC_SCAN_GEN_FLAGS2_COLLECT_CHANNEL_STATS

};

like, that's the whole enum. three constants, zero drama, all vibes πŸ¦‹


🧚 CONSTANTS 🧚

  • IWL_UMAC_SCAN_GEN_FLAGS2_NOTIF_PER_CHNL β€” the "tell me about every single channel" flag πŸ’… it's whether to send a complete notification per channel or not. per. channel. no skipping, no bundling.
  • IWL_UMAC_SCAN_GEN_FLAGS2_ALLOW_CHNL_REORDER β€” whether to allow channel reorder optimization or not πŸ”₯ basically permission to shuffle the channel lineup for efficiency. she's flexible like that.
  • IWL_UMAC_SCAN_GEN_FLAGS2_COLLECT_CHANNEL_STATS β€” turns on channel statistics collection when #IWL_UMAC_SCAN_GEN_FLAGS_V2_FORCE_PASSIVE is set πŸ‘‘ note the conditional, bestie β€” the stats party only starts if that other flag is set, iykyk.

lowkey a note: the # in #IWL_UMAC_SCAN_GEN_FLAGS_V2_FORCE_PASSIVE is part of the doc cross-reference syntax, so keep it exactly as-is when you quote it πŸ’€
