STRUCT IWL_CHAN_SWITCH_TE_CMD(9)

💖 struct iwl_chan_switch_te_cmd (9) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — yes we're reading kernel headers for fun now, this is who we are, and honestly? iconic behavior. This little guy is the Channel Switch Time Event command and it lives rent-free in the Intel wireless firmware API. let's get into it 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct iwl_chan_switch_te_cmd — Channel Switch Time Event command. that's it, that's the whole vibe 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct iwl_chan_switch_te_cmd {
    __le32 mac_id;
    __le32 action;
    __le32 tsf;
    u8 cs_count;
    u8 cs_delayed_bcn_count;
    u8 cs_mode;
    u8 reserved;
 };

look at her. seven fields, all dressed up, ready to tell the firmware about a channel switch. no cap 🎀

---

🦋 Members 🦋

so bestie, here's the field-by-field breakdown — every single one, we do not skip 🍓

• mac_id — the MAC ID for the channel switch, like the little name tag this operation wears to the party.
• action — the action to perform. peep enum iwl_ctxt_action for the actual menu of options, iykyk.
• tsf — beacon tsf. that's the timestamp field, doing timestamp things ⭐
• cs_count — the channel switch count, straight from the CSA/eCSA IE. it's giving "how many more beacons till we dip." 💀
• cs_delayed_bcn_count — okay this one's important: if it's set to N (where N != 0), the GO/AP can delay N beacon intervals at the new channel after the channel switch. but if N == 0, then nah — expect the beacon right after the channel switch, no lollygagging. 🙈
• cs_mode — 1 - quiet, 0 - otherwise. simple as that, no notes 👑
• reserved — reserved for alignment purposes. she's just there to keep things cute and aligned, main character energy but zero lines 🌈

and that's the page bestie!! 🎀 before you go — the source lives under ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... (the manual truncates the path, that's just how it is, don't come for me 😭), it's dated October 2026, and yes the footer title is literally struct iwl_...witch_te_cmd(9) because even the manpage generator got lazy with the name. slay. bye bestie, go read some wifi headers 💖🦋
