STRUCT ATH5K_HW_5210_TX_DESC(9)

💅 struct ath5k_hw_5210_tx_desc(9) — the Kernel API Manual page, but make it make sense

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — this is the page for struct ath5k...5210_tx_desc, and no, the ellipsis isn't me being dramatic, that's literally how the title renders. Anyway. Sit down, grab a strawberry 🍓, we're talking about the 5210/5211 hardware TX descriptor and honestly? She's compact, she's two fields, she's kind of an icon.

✨ NAME ✨

struct ath5k_hw_5210_tx_desc — the 5210/5211 hardware TX descriptor. That's it, that's the whole identity. Main character energy from a struct with two members. 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here's the whole vibe, copy-pasted exactly, don't touch it:

struct ath5k_hw_5210_tx_desc {
    struct ath5k_hw_2w_tx_ctl       tx_ctl;
    struct ath5k_hw_tx_status       tx_stat;
 };

look at her. two fields. zero filler. she ate and left no crumbs 💅

🌸 Members 🌸

• tx_ctl — this one's the struct ath5k_hw_2w_tx_ctl. yes, that's the whole description, and honestly? relatable. she's a control field, she's got things to do.
• tx_stat — and this one is the struct ath5k_hw_tx_status. status field behaviour. she's reporting in, she's keeping track, she's lowkey the responsible friend. 🫶
