✨ ieee80211_get_eht_iftype_cap(9) ✨

okay so bestie, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual — yes we're in kernel land today, put your hair up 💅 — and it's about ieee80211_get_eht_iftype_cap. long name, i know. say it with me. we're gonna get through this together 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

ieee80211_get_eht_iftype_cap — return EHT capabilities for an sband's iftype

like, it goes and fetches the EHT capabilities for a given iftype on an sband. that's the whole vibe. ✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

const struct ieee80211_sta_eht_cap * ieee80211_get_eht_iftype_cap (const
struct ieee80211_supported_band *sband , enum nl80211_iftype iftype );

look at her. const struct ieee80211_sta_eht_cap * coming back at you, taking a const struct ieee80211_supported_band *sband and an enum nl80211_iftype iftype. that's it. that's the signature. no cap. 🔥

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • sband — the sband to search for the iftype on 👀 like, this is the band you're digging through, bestie
  • iftype — an enum nl80211_iftype, the interface type you're hunting for 💖

⭐ RETURN ⭐

a pointer to the struct ieee80211_sta_eht_cap — icon behavior, love that for us 👑

or NULL if none found 😭 that's the sad path, but it's still a valid path, so check it, okay? fr fr.

ok so that's part one, and there's more coming — don't go anywhere, we're literally just getting started 🌈

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

okay bestie, the official cross-reference receipt starts with the Kernel file ./include/net/cfg80211.h, and then it literally name-drops the entire extended friend group. no cap, every single one is here:
