STRUCT IL_SSID_IE(9)
π struct il_ssid_ie(9) π
okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for struct il_ssid_ie β itβs giving βdirected scan network information elementβ and honestly itβs kinda iconic for such a tiny struct π
β¨
β¨ NAME β¨
struct il_ssid_ie β directed scan network information element π¦
π«Ά SYNOPSIS π«Ά
struct il_ssid_ie {
u8 id;
u8 len;
u8 ssid[32];
};
πΈ Members πΈ
soooo this section doesnβt have its own separate member-by-member breakdown on the original page β the fields are literally right there in the synopsis above, bestie πβ¨
π DESCRIPTION π
okay so hereβs the tea β: up to 20 of these may appear in C_SCAN β and yes, note the little parenthetical: only 4 are in 3945 SCAN api π. Theyβre selected by the "type" bit field in struct il_scan_channel, and each channel may select different ssids from among those 20 (4) entries. SSID IEs get transmitted in reverse order of entry β yes, backwards, thatβs the rule, no cap π₯
