🌸 NAME 🌸

ieee802154_disable_queue — literally just disables the ieee802154 queue, that's the whole gig 💀 no cap, that's it ✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

void ieee802154_disable_queue (struct ieee802154_local *local );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• local — the main mac object 💖 that's your girl, the star of the show, the one you're passing in 🌟

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

okay so picture this: you're trying to sync the Tx queue 👀 and the obvious move would be to just stop the queue — but nope, not allowed, because that's basically a bit being set without proper lock handling 😭 and that would be racy, which is a big no-no, we do not do races here 🙈

so instead, what we actually need to do is call netif_tx_disable, and that's exactly what this helper does for you 👑 she's the middleman, the friend who handles the awkward phone call for you 💅

and here's the cute part: restarting the queue can however still be done with a regular wake call ✨ so like, disabling is the careful one and waking back up is chill and easy, iykyk 🌈
