STRUCT IEEE80211_MESH_CHANSW_PARAMS_IE(9)

✨ NAME ✨

struct ieee80211_mesh_chansw_params_ie — the mesh channel switch parameters IE, bestie 💫

This is from the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? It's giving "tiny struct, big responsibilities." 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct ieee80211_mesh_chansw_params_ie {
    u8 mesh_ttl;
    u8 mesh_flags;
    __le16 mesh_reason;
    __le16 mesh_pre_value;
 };

Look at her. Four little fields. Iconic. 💅

🎀 Members 🎀

• mesh_ttl — Time To Live, fr fr ⏳
• mesh_flags — Flags, the vibe check bits 🚩
• mesh_reason — Reason Code, i.e. why we're doing this 😭
• mesh_pre_value — Precedence Value, the main character ranking 👑

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so listen 👂 — this structure is literally the payload of the "Mesh Channel Switch Parameters element", exactly as described in IEEE Std 802.11-2020 section 9.4.2.102. That's the whole thing. She's a payload wrapper and she ate. 🔥

No cap, if you're looking for behaviour beyond "this is the payload of that element," it's not here — the spec says it, the struct holds it, we move on. ✨
