ieee80211_is_reassoc_req(9)
π ieee80211_is_reassoc_req β from the Kernel API Manual β¨
okay so bestie, this is ieee80211_is_reassoc_req(9) and it's genuinely one of those tiny little helper functions that does exactly one thing and does it slay. it lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's basically a vibe check for a single frame type π
πΈ NAME πΈ
ieee80211_is_reassoc_req β check if IEEE80211_FTYPE_MGMT && IEEE80211_STYPE_REASSOC_REQ
no literally that's the whole job. it's giving "is this thing a reassociation request or not" and honestly? iconic π«Ά
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
bool ieee80211_is_reassoc_req (__le16 fc );
that's it, that's the whole signature, one argument and a bool back π
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
fcβ frame control bytes in little-endian byteorder π§
like, the raw frame control field, little-endian, no cap. that's what you hand over.
π RETURN π
whether or not the frame is a reassociation request β
true if it is, false if it's not β it's a yes/no girlie, she doesn't do essays π
π SEE ALSO π
Kernel file ./include/linux/ieee80211.h β that's the home base, go look at it if you're curious π
