STRUCT IWL_FW_DBG_TRIGGER_MISSED_BCON(9)

💅 struct iwl_fw_dbg_trigger_missed_bcon — NAME ✨

okay so bestie, gather round: this is the struct iwl_fw_dbg_trigger_missed_bcon, and it's literally the thing that configures trigger for missed beacons. That's it. That's the whole job. It's from the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? It ate. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

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

struct iwl_fw_dbg_trigger_missed_bcon {
    __le32 stop_consec_missed_bcon;
    __le32 stop_consec_missed_bcon_since_rx;
    __le32 reserved2[2];
    __le32 start_consec_missed_bcon;
    __le32 start_consec_missed_bcon_since_rx;
    __le32 reserved1[2];
 };

note the little chaotic detail: reserved2 comes before the start_* fields and reserved1 comes after them. that's not me being messy, that's literally the struct. respect the layout 💅

🦋 Members 🦋

• stop_consec_missed_bcon — the "okay we're done here" field: it stop recording if threshold is crossed. 💀
• stop_consec_missed_bcon_since_rx — same energy, same job: stop recording if threshold is crossed.
• reserved2 — reserved. hands off, it's not for us. 🙈
• start_consec_missed_bcon — the "wait, actually, keep going" field: it start recording if threshold is crossed. ✨
• start_consec_missed_bcon_since_rx — again, twin behaviour: start recording if threshold is crossed.
• reserved1 — reserved. also not for us. 🫶

fr fr, every one of those four threshold fields is doing the exact same sentence in the original — stop/stop/start/start, and I'm not about to invent lore that isn't there. iykyk.

🧚 little sign-off 💖

and that's the whole page, bestie!! this one was rendered from ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... (yes it's truncated like that, that's literally the footer, i don't make the rules), dated October 2026, and it goes by struct iwl_..._missed_bcon(9) at the bottom because the terminal didn't have room for the whole name. slay. go read your beacons. 🍓💜🌈
