il_beacon_time_mask_low(9)

💅 il_beacon_time_mask_low(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — yes that's the manual name, and yes we're getting into it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

il_beacon_time_mask_low — literally the mask of the lower 32 bit of beacon time, no cap 💅

and the kernel-doc notes on this one give us the deets on the params:

• il — pointer to il_priv data structure
• tsf_bits — number of bits need to shift for masking

(that trailing bit closes out with a ) in the original, we're keeping the vibe fr fr 🫶)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

u32 il_beacon_time_mask_low (struct il_priv *il , u16 tsf_bits );

she returns a u32, she takes a struct il_priv * and a u16, iconic 👑

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

so the arguments section is genuinely giving "the group chat left us on read" 😭

• il — -- undescribed -- 💀
• tsf_bits — -- undescribed -- 💀

that's it. that's the whole section. no further lore, ngl 🙈

like... she has friends, okay? main character energy with a whole entourage 🌈✨

quick vibe check: the low-bit masking one has a high-bit counterpart (il_beacon_time_mask_high(9)) — they're giving sibling duo, iykyk 🔥

and that's the whole page, periodt 🎀 huge shoutout to the source ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... and the October 2026 date on the footer, plus one last il_beacon_time_mask_low(9) for the road 💖 bye bestie, go mask some beacon time 🦋💜
