STRUCT IWL_FW_DBG_TRIGGER_BA(9)

💅 struct iwl_fw_dbg_trigger_ba — the Kernel API Manual moment

okay so bestie, you're in the Kernel API Manual and today's main character is struct iwl_fw_dbg_trigger_ba — it's the little struct that configures BlockAck related trigger stuff. no cap, that's literally its whole job. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct iwl_fw_dbg_trigger_ba — configures BlockAck related trigger 💫

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct iwl_fw_dbg_trigger_ba {
    __le16 rx_ba_start;
    __le16 rx_ba_stop;
    __le16 tx_ba_start;
    __le16 tx_ba_stop;
    __le16 rx_bar;
    __le16 tx_bar;
    __le16 frame_timeout;
 };

like, look at her. seven __le16 fields, all lined up, all iconic. 👑

🦋 Members 🦋

heads up bestie: every single one of these is a tid bitmap — that's the whole vibe. the bitmap is what you configure to pick which tid the trigger should fire on. 🫶

• rx_ba_start — tid bitmap to configure on what tid the trigger should occur when an Rx BlockAck session is started. go off, session start. 🔥
• rx_ba_stop — tid bitmap to configure on what tid the trigger should occur when an Rx BlockAck session is stopped. bye bestie, trigger fires. 😭
• tx_ba_start — tid bitmap to configure on what tid the trigger should occur when a Tx BlockAck session is started. twin of the one above, but Tx. ✨
• tx_ba_stop — tid bitmap to configure on what tid the trigger should occur when a Tx BlockAck session is stopped. the closing-act energy fr fr. 💅
• rx_bar — tid bitmap to configure on what tid the trigger should occur when a BAR is received (for a Tx BlockAck session). yes, received, and yes, it's the Tx session — that's not a typo, that's just how she is. 🙈
• tx_bar — tid bitmap to configure on what tid the trigger should occur when a BAR is send (for an Rx BlocAck session). (that "send" and that "BlocAck" are exactly how the original spells it — copying her spelling verbatim because I respect her 💖)
• frame_timeout — tid bitmap to configure on what tid the trigger should occur when a frame times out in the reordering buffer. the sad one. the dramatic one. the "omg where did you go" one. 💀

mwah 💋 that's the page! sourced straight from ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... and dated October 2026 — so she's from the future, obviously, and she's still struct iwl_f...g_trigger_ba(9) at heart. slay, periodt, go configure your tid bitmaps responsibly. 🧚⭐
