STRUCT IWL_FW_DUMP_PTRS(9)

💅 struct iwl_fw_dump_ptrs(9) — like, the kernel API manual bestie ✨

okay so real talk, this is section 9 of the Kernel API Manual and it's about one little struct — struct iwl_fw_dump_ptrs — and honestly? it's giving "small but crucial" 💖. It's literally just a little bundle of pointers that the fw-error-dump needs to do its thing. No cap, that's the whole vibe.

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct iwl_fw_dump_ptrs — a whole set of pointers needed for the fw-error-dump 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

struct iwl_fw_dump_ptrs {
    struct iwl_trans_dump_data *trans_ptr;
    void *fwrt_ptr;
    u32 fwrt_len;
 };

that's it. three members. iconic behavior honestly 👑

---

🌸 Members 🌸

• trans_ptr — a pointer to struct iwl_trans_dump_data, which is the thing holding the transport's data. so like, the transport stuff lives over there and this pointer is the main character who knows where 👀
• fwrt_ptr — a pointer to the buffer coming from fwrt 🫶
• fwrt_len — the length of the valid data in fwrt_ptr. like, how much of that buffer actually counts. important!! don't skip this one 💀

---

⭐ SEE ALSO ⭐

• Kernel file ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/fw/dbg-old.c — go read it bestie, iykyk 🔥

---

lowkey a reminder: fwrt_len is the length of the valid data in fwrt_ptr — not the whole buffer, just the valid part. don't be out here assuming 🙈

and that's the whole page fr fr 🌈. this gem comes from the kernel file ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... (yes, that's the truncated source line, we don't gatekeep) and it's dated October 2026 ⭐. mwah, bye bestie 💜🦋✨
