okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β¨ this one is a tiny little helper from the iwlwifi world and honestly it's giving "small function, big job" energy π
πΈ NAME
iwl_beacon_time_mask_low β the mask of the lower 32 bit of beacon time π₯
β¨ SYNOPSIS
u32 iwl_beacon_time_mask_low (struct iwl_priv *priv , u16 tsf_bits );
π¦ ARGUMENTS
privβ pointer toiwl_privdata structure π like, it's the whole driver's little home base, and this function just needs a pointer to it.tsf_bitsβ the number of bits need to shift for masking π (yes the original description really does end with a stray), and we respect the icon for it π) β so basically, how far we're shifting before we mask.
π RETURN
the low 32 bits of beacon time mask β that's the whole vibe check, it returns a u32, no cap.
