ENUM RTW_IEEE80211_CHANNEL_FLAGS(9)

💅 enum rtw_ieee80211_channel_flags(9)

okay so bestie, this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual and it's literally all about channel flags — the little vibe-check labels the regulatory control code slaps onto a channel. let's get into it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

enum rtw_ieee80211_channel_flags — channel flags. that's it, that's the whole name, no cap 💖

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the whole enum, exactly as it lives, don't @ me:

enum rtw_ieee80211_channel_flags {
    RTW_IEEE80211_CHAN_DISABLED ,
    RTW_IEEE80211_CHAN_PASSIVE_SCAN ,
    RTW_IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_IBSS ,
    RTW_IEEE80211_CHAN_RADAR ,
    RTW_IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_HT40PLUS ,
    RTW_IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_HT40MINUS

};

🦋 Constants 🦋

these are the constants, and honestly each one is a whole personality:

• RTW_IEEE80211_CHAN_DISABLED — this channel is disabled. like, closed for business, do not pass go 🙈
• RTW_IEEE80211_CHAN_PASSIVE_SCAN — only passive scanning is permitted on this channel. that's the rule, bestie ✨
• RTW_IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_IBSS — IBSS is not allowed on this channel. sorry not sorry 💅
• RTW_IEEE80211_CHAN_RADAR — radar detection is required on this channel. yes, like actual radar. iconic ⭐
• RTW_IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_HT40PLUS — the extension channel above this channel is not permitted. so no plus, mmkay 🚫
• RTW_IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_HT40MINUS — the extension channel below this channel is not permitted. no minus either, fr fr 🚫

💜 Description 💜

so what are these even? channel flags set by the regulatory control code. literally that's the whole description — the regulatory control code sets them. periodt 👑

go look at these, iykyk:

and that's the page!! 🫶 big shoutout to ./drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/in… for the source/version, dated October 2026, still serving the same enum rtw_ieee80211_channel_flags(9) header on the other side. slay, go read the kernel source bestie 💖🎀🦋
