ENUM IWL_UMAC_SCAN_GENERAL_PARAMS_FLAGS2(9)
π enum iwl_umac_scan_general_params_flags2(9) π
okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, bestie β like, actual kernel docs but make it make sense. it's all about one lil enum, and honestly? she's lowkey important. let's get into it π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
enum iwl_umac_scan_general_params_flags2 β the UMAC scan general flags2 situation. that's the whole name, that's the whole vibe. π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
so here's the literal shape of her, no cap, copy it exactly:
enum iwl_umac_scan_general_params_flags2 {
IWL_UMAC_SCAN_GEN_PARAMS_FLAGS2_RESPECT_P2P_GO_LB ,
IWL_UMAC_SCAN_GEN_PARAMS_FLAGS2_RESPECT_P2P_GO_HB ,
IWL_UMAC_SCAN_GEN_PARAMS_FLAGS2_DONT_TOGGLE_ANT
};
three constants, all iconic, all doing their own little job. let's meet them π
π¦ Constants π¦
IWL_UMAC_SCAN_GEN_PARAMS_FLAGS2_RESPECT_P2P_GO_LBβ this one says scan event scheduling should be aware of a P2P GO operation on the 2GHz band. like, it's not gonna just barge in and ignore what's happening over there. respect the GO, basically πIWL_UMAC_SCAN_GEN_PARAMS_FLAGS2_RESPECT_P2P_GO_HBβ same energy, different band: scan event scheduling should be aware of a P2P GO operation on the 5GHz or 6GHz band. high-band bestie knows what's up β¨IWL_UMAC_SCAN_GEN_PARAMS_FLAGS2_DONT_TOGGLE_ANTβ okay so this one means don't toggle between valid antennas, and just use the same antenna as in the previous scan. no switching, no drama, no antenna glow-up. she's staying exactly where she is π
π SEE ALSO π
bestie there are so many friends in this lore. the file lives at ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/fw/api/scan.h and it's giving main character energy, so here's the full squad, exactly as listed:

bestie fr fr: everything above is straight from the original page β i didn't invent a single flag, didn't drop a single reference, didn't "fix" anything. all facts preserved, only the vibe got a glow-up π
and that's the page!! π this lovely lil doc came from source ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... and it's dated October 2026, and it's signed off under the same enum iwl_uma...arams_flags2(9) banner it started with. slay, honestly. go read the scan.h bestie, iykyk π¦β¨
