💅 enum rtl818x_tx_desc_flags(9) — like, the whole vibe ✨

okay so welcome to the Kernel API Manual bestie, and today's main character is enum rtl818x_tx_desc_flags 🎀 literally a little enum of Tx/Rx flags, and the whole point is that these flags are common between RTL818X chips — shared, no cap, one enum to rule them all 👑

like, that's the whole cast of characters, and yes the trailing comma before the closing brace is right there, we do not touch it 💀

🧚 Constants — the flag-by-flag breakdown 🧚

• RTL818X_TX_DESC_FLAG_NO_ENC — disables hardware based encryption. turning the hardware crypto off, okay bestie? 🙈
• RTL818X_TX_DESC_FLAG_TX_OK — the TX frame was ACKed. it got the little nod of approval back 🫶
• RTL818X_TX_DESC_FLAG_SPLCP — use short preamble. short and sweet, lowkey iconic ✨
• RTL818X_TX_DESC_FLAG_RX_UNDER — -- undescribed -- (the docs literally said nothing, so neither will I 😭 the silence is the content ngl)
• RTL818X_TX_DESC_FLAG_MOREFRAG — more fragments follow. there's more, there's always more 🍓
• RTL818X_TX_DESC_FLAG_CTS — use CTS-to-self protection. protecting itself, main character energy fr 💅
• RTL818X_TX_DESC_FLAG_RTS — use RTS/CTS protection. the classic duo, slaying together 🔥
• RTL818X_TX_DESC_FLAG_LS — last segment of the frame. the finale, the last episode 👑
• RTL818X_TX_DESC_FLAG_FS — first segment of the frame. the pilot episode, where it all begins 🌈
• RTL818X_TX_DESC_FLAG_DMA — -- undescribed -- (again!! the manpage said nothing, so I'm not inventing anything, that's a promise 🙅‍♀️)
• RTL818X_TX_DESC_FLAG_OWN — -- undescribed -- (yep, also undescribed. three mystery flags in the group chat and they're all typing… 💀)

ngl three of these are marked -- undescribed -- in the source, so they stay undescribed here too — I'm not out here making up lore that isn't in the canon 🎀
