💖 rsi_send_mgmt_pkt(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the rsi_send_mgmt_pkt page from the Kernel API Manual — this is the function that sends the received management packet from the driver to the device. like, it takes the mgmt packet your driver just picked up and yeets it over to the hardware. that's the whole vibe. 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int rsi_send_mgmt_pkt (struct rsi_common *common , struct sk_buff *skb );

no cap, that's the entire signature. short, iconic, to the point. 👑

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• common — Pointer to the driver private structure. it's giving "the main character struct" — all the driver's personal lore lives in here. 💅
• skb — Pointer to the socket buffer structure. this is the actual packet container, the little suitcase the data travels in. 🧳✨

🔥 RETURN 🔥

• status: 0 on success — slay, it worked, packet delivered. 🎉
• -1 on failure — 😭 not the sad path. something went wrong, no packet for you.

fr fr, do check that return value. -1 is not a vibe you want to ignore. 💀
