💅 iwl_clear_driver_stations(9) 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a lil function page and it's literally the whole iwl_clear_driver_stations moment, no cap.

🌸 NAME 🌸

iwl_clear_driver_stations — clear knowledge of all stations from driver 🧹💖

like, the driver just forgets every station it ever knew. iconic memory loss behavior, honestly.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void iwl_clear_driver_stations(struct iwl_priv *priv);

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• priv — the iwl priv struct 🫶 that's it, that's the whole vibe. one (1) argument, main character energy.

---

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

okay so here's the tea ☕ — this gets called during iwl_down, and the whole point is: make sure mac80211 can reconfigure stations in the case where we're arriving at iwl_down from a hardware restart 😭🔥

and listen — if we're getting there in the normal down flow, then the stations will already be cleared, so there's nothing to worry about 💅 periodt.
