okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a tiny little helper living in the Linux kernel's wireless headers, and honestly? it's giving "small but iconic" πŸŽ€

yes gorg, it takes the frame control bytes and returns a bool. short, sweet, slay. πŸ‘‘


🫢 ARGUMENTS 🫢

πŸ’– RETURN πŸ’–
