ENUM QLINK_WOWLAN_TRIGGER(9)
π enum qlink_wowlan_trigger(9) β the Kernel API Manual glow-up π
okay bestie so this page is literally about enum qlink_wowlan_trigger, and it lives in the Kernel API Manual (yes, that's the manual name, we're being classy today β¨). It's a wireless thing. It's giving "wake me up when something happens on the network" energy, and I am obsessed.
β¨ NAME β¨
enum qlink_wowlan_trigger β the enum itself, no extra description in the original, so we're not inventing one, periodt π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
enum qlink_wowlan_trigger {
QLINK_WOWLAN_TRIG_DISCONNECT ,
QLINK_WOWLAN_TRIG_MAGIC_PKT ,
QLINK_WOWLAN_TRIG_PATTERN_PKT
};
like, that's the whole shape of it. three values, one enum, very clean, no notes π
πΈ Constants πΈ
okay so these are the members, and every single one is a different reason your NIC might wake the system up. no cap, here they are:
QLINK_WOWLAN_TRIG_DISCONNECTβ wakeup on disconnect π«Ά like, the link drops and the card's like "bestie wake up, we lost the connection"QLINK_WOWLAN_TRIG_MAGIC_PKTβ wakeup on magic packet β¨ that classic magic-packet wake situationQLINK_WOWLAN_TRIG_PATTERN_PKTβ wakeup on user-defined packet π a packet you defined. main character packet, honestly
π SEE ALSO π
the original says all of this comes from the kernel file ./drivers/net/wireless/quantenna/qtnfmac/qlink.h, and then it dumps the entire qtnfmac extended universe on us. I'm not skipping a single one β that would be a crime π here's the whole friend group:
