ENUM SURVEY_INFO_FLAGS(9)
okay bestie, welcome to the enum survey_info_flags(9) page from the Kernel API Manual β itβs giving βtiny enum, big survey energyβ and weβre gonna get into every single flag. no skips, no cap. π
β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
enum survey_info_flags β survey information flags. thatβs the whole name, periodt. π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
enum survey_info_flags {
SURVEY_INFO_NOISE_DBM ,
SURVEY_INFO_IN_USE ,
SURVEY_INFO_TIME ,
SURVEY_INFO_TIME_BUSY ,
SURVEY_INFO_TIME_EXT_BUSY ,
SURVEY_INFO_TIME_RX ,
SURVEY_INFO_TIME_TX ,
SURVEY_INFO_TIME_SCAN ,
SURVEY_INFO_TIME_BSS_RX
};
π Constants π
SURVEY_INFO_NOISE_DBMβ the noise got filled in, and itβs measured in dBm. iconic little signal detail. πΆSURVEY_INFO_IN_USEβ this channel is currently being used. main character channel behavior, honestly. πSURVEY_INFO_TIMEβ active time got filled in, in ms. time math bestie, we love to see it. β±οΈSURVEY_INFO_TIME_BUSYβ busy time was filled in. lowkey stressed channel vibes. πSURVEY_INFO_TIME_EXT_BUSYβ extension channel busy time was filled in. extra busy, extra valid. πSURVEY_INFO_TIME_RXβ receive time was filled in. receiving the tea fr fr. πSURVEY_INFO_TIME_TXβ transmit time was filled in. sending it right back, slay. π₯SURVEY_INFO_TIME_SCANβ scan time was filled in. detective mode timing, we see you. π΅οΈSURVEY_INFO_TIME_BSS_RXβ local BSS receive time was filled in. local bestie receive time, very demure. π«Ά
π Description π
so the driver uses this enum to indicate which info inside struct survey_info it has filled in during the get_survey β itβs literally the driverβs little βhereβs what I actually brought to the functionβ checklist. no guessing, just flags. β¨
π SEE ALSO π
okay bestie, this is the extended-universe moment β the page is literally introducing you to its whole friend group π no gatekeeping, no βyouβll meet them later,β just names names names. the kernel file is ./include/net/cfg80211.h, and after that weβve got:
