STRUCT IEEE80211_AID_RESPONSE_IE(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– struct ieee80211_aid_response_ie β€” AID Response element πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for struct ieee80211_aid_response_ie, and no cap, it's a short one β€” but it's iconic in its own little way πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

struct ieee80211_aid_response_ie β€” literally the AID Response element. that's the whole vibe. πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the struct, copied exactly, character for character, don't come for me:

struct ieee80211_aid_response_ie {
    __le16 aid;
    u8 switch_count;
    __le16 response_int;
 };

it's giving "small but mighty" ngl πŸ’…


πŸ‘‘ Members πŸ‘‘

  • aid β€” the AID/Group AID. yes, both. it contains multitudes. πŸ’œ
  • switch_count β€” the AID Switch Count. it's counting switches, bestie. that's the job. πŸ”₯
  • response_int β€” the AID Response Interval. an interval of responses, if you will. ✨

🌈 Description 🌈

so this structure represents the payload of the "AID Response element" β€” and where is that described, you ask? say it with me: as described in IEEE Std 802.11-2020 section 9.4.2.194. periodt. πŸ“šβœ¨

that's the whole description. no hidden lore, no secret extra behavior, just the spec citation and it ate. 🫢


🧚 SEE ALSO 🧚

the kernel file lives at ./include/linux/ieee80211-s1g.h β€” and here's the whole friend group, all of them, in order:

go read them. they're all slaying in their own lanes. πŸ’€πŸŒΈ


lowkey reminder: everything above is exactly what the page says, i just made it cuter. no invented behavior, no extra tips, we stay factual in this group chat. πŸ˜­πŸ’–

and that's the page!! πŸŽ€ sign-off time: this one comes from the kernel source tree at ./include/linux, dated October 2026, and it's filed under struct ieee8..._response_ie(9) β€” yes the truncation is the original's, we don't fix what we don't own πŸ’…πŸ¦‹ bye bestie, go read the spec section, mwah 🫢⭐
