STRUCT IWL6000_CHANNEL_SWITCH_CMD(9)

💅 struct iwl6000_channel_switch_cmd(9) 💅

okay bestie, so we're in the Kernel API Manual and this is literally the page for struct iwl6000_channel_switch_cmd — yes that truncated name in the header is struct iwl6...l_switch_cmd(9), it's giving "we ran out of room in the title bar" energy but she's iconic anyway. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct iwl6000_channel_switch_cmd — the channel switch command for the 6000 series, no cap 🦋

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct iwl6000_channel_switch_cmd {
    u8 band;
    u8 expect_beacon;
    __le16 channel;
    __le32 rxon_flags;
    __le32 rxon_filter_flags;
    __le32 switch_time;
    __le32 reserved[3][IWL_PWR_NUM_HT_OFDM_ENTRIES +
IWL_PWR_CCK_ENTRIES];
 };

like, that's the whole struct, every field accounted for, we do NOT skip fields in this house 💖

👑 Members 👑

• band — the band, bestie. 0 means 5.2GHz, 1 means 2.4GHz. two moods, pick one 💫
• expect_beacon — 0 means resume transmits after channel switch, 1 means wait for beacon to resume transmits. so it's basically "do I yeet immediately or wait for the beacon to give me permission" 🙈
• channel — the new channel number, the main character of this struct ngl 🎀
• rxon_flags — Rx on flags ⭐
• rxon_filter_flags — filtering parameters, keeping it clean ✨
• switch_time — switch time in extended beacon format ⏰
• reserved — reserved bytes, she's just vibing in the back, not for us 🔥

fr fr that's everything — nothing added, nothing dropped, periodt 💅

k bye bestie, this page came from ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... and it's dated October 2026, so like... future icon behaviour honestly. see you in the man pages 🫶✨🌷
