okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and the page is struct iwl_fw_mon_reg(9) β€” yes it's a struct, yes it's a whole page about it, and yes we're gonna read it together πŸ’–


πŸŽ€ NAME πŸŽ€

struct iwl_fw_mon_reg β€” the FW monitor register info struct. that's literally its whole job. it's giving "small but mighty" ✨


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

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

two fields. two. and honestly? iconic for that 🫢
