STRUCT CFG80211_MBSSID_ELEMS(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct cfg80211_mbssid_elems — Multiple BSSID elements ✨

okay so bestie, this is the struct cfg80211_mbssid_elems(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — manual name folded in right here near the top instead of copying the whole header line, periodt 💅. And yes, it's literally all about Multiple BSSID elements 🫶.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Here's the exact struct, bestie — copy this character for character, no “fixing” the vibes 😭:

       struct cfg80211_mbssid_elems {
           u8 cnt;
           struct {
             const u8 *data;
             size_t len;
           } elem[];
        };

It's giving a struct with a u8 cnt and an array named elem[] of inner structs carrying data and len 👑.

🎀 Members 🎀

okay next chunk is the whole actions and configuration era — this is where the page gets its main character energy, because everything you can do to a wireless device lives down here 🎀

then we slide into scanning and BSS list handling — the "who's out there and what are they serving" part, lowkey the most relatable section fr 🔥

and now the driver-author gauntlet: the ops struct, every wiphy flag, and the full wiphy lifecycle 💀 genuinely iconic that this is all one list ngl

utility functions, aka the little helpers that are always there for you when the main structs are being dramatic 🧚

data path helpers — header-flipping, frame-sniffing, IE-hunting goodness 🌈

regulatory enforcement infrastructure — the "no you cannot just transmit there" department, respectfully the strictest friend in the group 🎀

BSS handling + MLME notifications, the part where the kernel tells you everything that just went down 🫶

and bestie… that's not even the end of the references. keep scrolling, there's more page coming 💖

…and the roll call keeps going, bestie, because this list is long and we do not skip entries in this house 💅

the registration girlies and the FT event besties, we love a themed group ✨

the "splitting and stopping and checking" chunk — lowkey the backbone of the whole vibe check 🫶

a whole NAN era in here, we stan a niche icon 🦋

the colour-change girlies, the MLO reconf girlies, more NAN, the debugfs twins and the S1G crew — everybody got invited, nobody got left on read 💀👑

okay that's genuinely all of them, no cap. every single one is on the guest list and every single one got a name tag. go read whichever one you actually need, bestie — this struct page is donezo 🎀

and that's a wrap on struct cfg80211_mbssid_elems(9)! source location lived at ./include/net, dated October 2026 — that's the tea, drink it responsibly 🍓

bye bestie, mwah 💜🫶✨
