STRUCT IWL_CONTEXT_INFO_DUMP_CFG(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

struct iwl_context_info_dump_cfg β€” the Core Dump configuration, bestie ✨

So this little icon is the struct that holds the Core Dump config. That's it, that's the vibe πŸŽ€ (and yes, we're in the Kernel API manual, iykyk β€” this is the iwlwifi corner of the kernel tree, wireless edition 🌈)


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Like, here's the whole shape of it, no cap:

struct iwl_context_info_dump_cfg {
    __le64 core_dump_addr;
    __le32 core_dump_size;
    __le32 reserved;
 };

Look at her. Three real fields and one little reserved placeholder just vibing at the end πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ Members πŸ¦‹

Okay so let's meet the cast, one by one:

  • core_dump_addr β€” the start address of the core dump, aka the debug DRAM address πŸ”₯ Like, where the dump actually begins. That's her whole job.
  • core_dump_size β€” the size, measured in DWs πŸ‘‘ (yes, DWs, not bytes, don't come for me, that's literally what the manpage says)
  • reserved β€” (reserved) 🫢 she's reserved. That's the whole description. She sits there and she does not elaborate. Respect the mystery, honestly πŸ’€

πŸ’œ Little sign-off moment: this page lives out of ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i..., stamped October 2026, and yeah the footer is literally just struct iwl_c...nfo_dump_cfg(9) again because it's that kind of page. Slay, periodt 🌟
