STRUCT IWL_MAC_NAN_DATA(9)

💅 struct iwl_mac_nan_data(9) — the Kernel API Manual, bestie edition 🦋

okay so picture this: it's a kernel API manual page, it's from the 9 section, and it's literally just here to introduce you to struct iwl_mac_nan_data — the "NAN specific MAC data" glow-up. NAN stands for Neighbor Awareness Networking, and this struct is the little carry-on bag where the MAC keeps its NAN stuff. It's small, it's cute, it's iconic. Let's get into it ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct iwl_mac_nan_data — NAN specific MAC data. that's the whole vibe, no notes 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the shape of it, bestie — copy it exactly, don't be weird about it:

struct iwl_mac_nan_data {
    struct {
      u8 addr[ETH_ALEN];
      __le16 reserved;
    } ndi_addrs[2];
    __le32 ndi_addrs_count;
 };

so yeah. an array of 2 of these lil anonymous structs, each one holding a u8 addr[ETH_ALEN] and a __le16 reserved, plus a __le32 ndi_addrs_count hanging out at the bottom doing its thing 💜

---

🫶 Members 🫶

• ndi_addrs — the extra NDI addresses being used, slay. this is the array right here, and it's giving "I brought two just in case" energy 💅
• ndi_addrs_count — number of extra NDI addresses. it's the headcount. it tells you how many of the above are actually real and not just vibes 🌈

ngl, this struct is tiny but it's lowkey doing important work, and the manpage is not gonna hold your hand beyond that. read the SEE ALSO list, it's fr fr your enrichment reading 📚

okay that's the whole page, no cap 💖 it's sourced from ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i..., dated October 2026, and this lil manual page footer is struct iwl_mac_nan_data(9) — go forth and configure your MACs, bestie, you're gonna ate 🎀⭐💅
