okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β this little page is all about iwl_beacon_time_mask_high, and honestly? she's a tiny function with one very specific job and I respect that so much π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
iwl_beacon_time_mask_high β the mask of the higher 32 bits of beacon time, no cap π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
u32 iwl_beacon_time_mask_high (struct iwl_priv *priv , u16 tsf_bits );
it's giving "small signature, big purpose" β¨
π ARGUMENTS π
privβ pointer to theiwl_privdata structure π¦ like, that's the whole vibe, she just wants her struct pointertsf_bitsβ number of bits need to shift for masking) π yes the closing paren is canon, we don't edit the original, we respect the original
β RETURN β
the high 32 bits of the beacon time mask π that's it, that's the return value, and she ate π₯

./drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/dvm/devices.cβ go read the source, iykyk π iwl_beacon_time_mask_low(9)β the low-bit sibling, the other half of the duo, the main character energy pair π
lowkey a reminder: this page only gives you the high 32 bits. if you're out here looking for the low ones, that's a whole other manpage, bestie π
ok so that's the whole page β ngl it's short but it's iconic in its own way π. this came from the source ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... and it's dated October 2026, so yeah β go mask those beacon time bits, you've got this π§β¨π
