ieee80211_is_assoc_resp(9)
π ieee80211_is_assoc_resp β from the Kernel API Manual β¨
okay so bestie, this is ieee80211_is_assoc_resp(9), straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally the tiniest little vibe-check function in the whole 802.11 friend group π«Ά
πΈ NAME πΈ
ieee80211_is_assoc_resp β check if IEEE80211_FTYPE_MGMT && IEEE80211_STYPE_ASSOC_RESP
like. that's it. that's the whole job. it looks at a frame and goes "mm, management type, assoc-resp subtype? yes queen" π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
bool ieee80211_is_assoc_resp(__le16 fc);
π ARGUMENTS π
fcβ the frame control bytes, and they are in little-endian byteorder ngl, do NOT forget that part, it's giving endianness and endianness does not play π
π RETURN π
returns whether or not the frame is an association response. that's the whole answer. bool. yes or no. slay π
π¦ SEE ALSO π¦
okay this is the part where I introduce you to the entire extended family, because ./include/linux/ieee80211.h? that kernel file? it is packed with cousins. like, this function literally has 78 relatives and they ALL want to be mentioned at the function reunion π

and the kernel file they all live in is ./include/linux/ieee80211.h β go say hi to them, they're all so iconic in their own little ways π
lowkey that's the whole page bestie, no cap. one function, one__le16, onebool. short king energy π₯
okay so that's a wrap on ieee80211_is_assoc_resp(9) from the ./include/linux source, dated October 2026 β mwah, bye, go check some frame control bytes πππ¦
