πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– struct iwl_fw_error_dump_paging(9) πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β€” yes that's the manual name, and yes we're reading kernel struct docs together, that's just the kind of girls we are now πŸŽ€ This one is literally all about struct iwl_fw_error_dump_paging, no cap.


✨ NAME ✨

struct iwl_fw_error_dump_paging β€” it's the content of the UMAC's image page block on DRAM πŸ’… that's it, that's the whole vibe. one struct, one job, iconic behavior.


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

struct iwl_fw_error_dump_paging {
    __le32 index;
    __le32 reserved;
    u8 data[];
};

look at her. three members, one flexible array, zero notes. she's giving minimalist queen πŸ‘‘


🌸 Members 🌸

index

the index of the page block ✨ so like, which page block we're talking about. that's her whole personality.

reserved

reserved πŸ™ˆ that's it. that's the description. it's reserved, bestie, don't touch, don't ask, we don't poke the reserved field, it's not for us, iykyk.

data

the content of the page block πŸ’– the actual payload, the main character of this struct fr fr β€” and notice it's u8 data[], a flexible array member, so the content just keeps going as far as it needs to. slay.

ngl if you're here because your iwlwifi dump is being weird β€” same, bestie. the whole family above is worth a scroll.

🌈 and that's the page!! source vibes from ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i..., dated October 2026, footer reads struct iwl_..._dump_paging(9) β€” mwah, periodt, go read some more kernel headers, you're doing amazing sweetie πŸ’œβœ¨
