ENUM NL80211_PMKSA_CANDIDATE_ATTR(9)

💅 enum nl80211_pmksa_candidate_attr — attributes for PMKSA caching candidates

okay bestie, so this is the man page for enum nl80211_pmksa_candidate_attr(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally the little enum that holds the attributes for PMKSA caching candidates. that's the whole vibe. no cap. 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

enum nl80211_pmksa_candidate_attr {
    __NL80211_PMKSA_CANDIDATE_INVALID ,
    NL80211_PMKSA_CANDIDATE_INDEX ,
    NL80211_PMKSA_CANDIDATE_BSSID ,
    NL80211_PMKSA_CANDIDATE_PREAUTH ,
    NUM_NL80211_PMKSA_CANDIDATE ,
    MAX_NL80211_PMKSA_CANDIDATE

};

🎀 Constants 🎀

okay so these are the members, one by one, no skipping, we don't do that here 🫶

• __NL80211_PMKSA_CANDIDATE_INVALID — the invalid number for nested attributes. it's the "not a real one, don't" slot. 🙈
• NL80211_PMKSA_CANDIDATE_INDEX — the candidate index, and it's a u32. and listen — the smaller it is, the higher the priority. so tiny number = main character energy. 👑
• NL80211_PMKSA_CANDIDATE_BSSID — the candidate BSSID. it's 6 octets, periodt. 🍓
• NL80211_PMKSA_CANDIDATE_PREAUTH — RSN pre-authentication supported. it's a flag, so yes/no, iconic. 🔥
• NUM_NL80211_PMKSA_CANDIDATE — the number of PMKSA caching candidate attributes, and it's marked (internal) so that's an iykyk situation. 💀
• MAX_NL80211_PMKSA_CANDIDATE — the highest PMKSA caching candidate attribute, also (internal). the ceiling, the limit, the final boss. ⭐
