STRUCT IEEE80211_IF_OCB(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, meet struct ieee80211_if_ocb — the OCB mode state struct from the Kernel API Manual. She’s giving main-character struct energy, and we’re gonna walk through every single field, no cap 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct ieee80211_if_ocb {
    struct timer_list housekeeping_timer;
    unsigned long wrkq_flags;
    spinlock_t incomplete_lock;
    struct list_head incomplete_stations;
    bool joined;
 };

That’s the whole shape of her, periodt 🎀

🎀 Members 🎀

• housekeeping_timer — a struct timer_list; it’s the timer for periodic invocation of a housekeeping task ✨
• wrkq_flags — an unsigned long; it’s the OCB deferred task action 🛠️
• incomplete_lock — a spinlock_t; it’s the delayed STA insertion lock 🔒
• incomplete_stations — a struct list_head; it’s the list of STAs waiting for delayed insertion 📋
• joined — a bool; it’s the indication if the interface is connected to an OCB network ✅
