rfkill_set_states(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 rfkill_set_states 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — this is the page for rfkill_set_states, and honestly it's giving "small function, big mood" 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

rfkill_set_states — set the internal rfkill block states, no cap 💅

⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

void rfkill_set_states (struct rfkill *rfkill , bool sw , bool hw );

like that's the whole signature, she's compact and she knows it 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • rfkill — pointer to the rfkill class to modify. yes queen, this is the thing you're poking at 👑
  • sw — the current software block state to set 🍓
  • hw — the current hardware block state to set 🌈

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so here's the tea ☕ — this function can be called in any context. literally any. and not just the boring normal contexts either: it can be called even from within rfkill callbacks 😭🔥 that's the whole vibe, that's the whole point, periodt.

bestie pls note: "any context" is the actual documented behaviour here — don't go inventing extra rules, this is exactly what the page says 💀
