STRUCT IWL_DUMP_FILE_NAME_INFO(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… struct iwl_dump_file_name_info(9) β€” the kernel API manual, but make it make sense

okay so bestie, welcome to struct iwl_dump_file_name_info β€” it's a lil struct in the kernel API manual and honestly it's giving "small but crucial" energy. It's literally the data you need for dump file name addition. That's it, that's the vibe ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

struct iwl_dump_file_name_info β€” data for dump file name addition 🫢


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

okay so here's the whole thing, and no cap, it's tiny:

struct iwl_dump_file_name_info {
    __le32 type;
    __le32 len;
    __u8 data[];
 };

look at her. three members. main character energy, minimal effort πŸ’…


✨ Members ✨

  • type β€” the region type, but with reserved bits in there too. so like, it's the type plus some extra bits doing their own thing πŸ‘‘
  • len β€” the length of the file name string that's gonna get added to the dump file. it's giving "how much string are we working with" πŸ“
  • data β€” the actual string that needs to be added to the dump file. the payload. the moment. the reason we're all here πŸ¦‹
