iwl_dhc_resp_status(9)

💅 iwl_dhc_resp_status(9)

Okay bestie, so this one comes straight out of the Kernel API Manual ✨ — it's a little function that just wants to tell you the status of a DHC response. That's it. That's the whole vibe. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

iwl_dhc_resp_status — returns the status of a DHC response. Lowkey does exactly what it says on the tin, no surprises, we love that for her. 💖

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

u32 iwl_dhc_resp_status (const struct iwl_fw *fw , struct iwl_rx_packet
*pkt );

Two args, one u32 coming back at you. Iconic signature, no notes. 👑

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• fw — the firmware image information, aka the whole firmware picture you're passing in.
• pkt — the response packet. And it must NOT be NULL, fr fr, do not test her like that. 🫶

---

🌈 RETURN 🌈

She gives you back the status value of the DHC command — and if the response was too short? You get (u32)-1. So yeah, (u32)-1 is the "bestie this packet came up short" signal. 😭

Heads up, gorgeous: (u32)-1 is a real value you can receive, so don't go treating it like a normal status code. The doc says "too short" and it means it. 💀
