iw_event_handler(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so welcome to the iw_event_handler(9) page from the Kernel API Manual ✨. This is the function the provider calls when it’s delivering provider events to the IW CM. It returns either 0 — meaning the event was processed, slay — or -errno if the event could not be processed. No cap 💅.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here’s the signature, exactly as it appears, bestie — do not come for me about the spacing 🫶:

int iw_event_handler (struct iw_cm_id *cm_id , struct iw_cm_event *event
);

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

two arguments, both iconic, let’s go:

• cm_id — the IW CM identifier that’s associated with the event 🌸.
• event — pointer to the event structure 🦋.
