STRUCT IWL_MVM_REORDER_BUF_ENTRY(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… struct iwl_mvm_reorder_buf_entry(9) β€” bestie edition

okay so you're reading the Kernel API Manual (that's the manual name, hi, welcome 🫢) and you landed on this page, which means you're deep in the iwlwifi trenches. no cap, this is genuinely cute and small. let's go ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

struct iwl_mvm_reorder_buf_entry β€” it's a reorder buffer entry, and it lives per-queue/per-seqno. that's the whole personality. one entry per queue, per sequence number, holding on to stuff until it's time. iconic behavior honestly πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

like, here's the whole thing, it's not that deep:

struct iwl_mvm_reorder_buf_entry {
    struct sk_buff_head frames;
};

one member. one. she's minimal and she knows it πŸ‘‘


✨ Members ✨

  • frames β€” the list of skbs stored in this entry. literally just a pile of skbs chilling in a struct sk_buff_head, waiting their turn. that's it, that's the field πŸ’–
ngl this is a "show up, do one thing, leave" kind of struct and honestly? respect.

πŸ”₯ SEE ALSO πŸ”₯

it all lives in the kernel file ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/mvm.h β€” go read it, it's giving lore 🌈

and here's the whole friend group, no gatekeeping, every single one:

  • struct iwl_mvm_mod_params(9)
  • enum iwl_power_scheme(9)
  • enum iwl_mvm_low_latency_force(9)
  • enum iwl_mvm_low_latency_cause(9)
  • struct iwl_mvm_link_bf_data(9)
  • struct iwl_probe_resp_data(9)
  • struct iwl_mvm_vif_link_info(9)

  • enum iwl_mvm_status(9)
  • struct iwl_mvm_roc_ops(9)
  • struct iwl_mvm_switch_vif_chanctx_ops(9)

that's seventeen neighbors, all main character energy, all worth a read if you're bored πŸ¦‹


okay that's the whole page, you ate that πŸ’… this edition came from source ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... and it's dated October 2026 β€” so yeah, mark your calendar bestie, and remember: struct iwl_m...er_buf_entry(9) forever πŸŽ€πŸ’–βœ¨
