STRUCT IWL_RX_NO_DATA(9)

💖 struct iwl_rx_no_data(9) — the kernel API manual, bestie edition 💖

okay so this is the manual for struct iwl_rx_no_data, a kernel API page from the Kernel API Manual — it's the RX no data descriptor, and it's lowkey iconic. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct iwl_rx_no_data — the RX no data descriptor. that's it, that's the vibe 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

struct iwl_rx_no_data {
    __le32 info;
    __le32 rssi;
    __le32 on_air_rise_time;
    __le32 fr_time;
    __le32 rate;
    __le32 phy_info[2];
    __le32 rx_vec[2];
 };

like, look at her. seven __le32 fields, two of them arrays. main character energy fr fr 👑

💅 Members 💅

• info — this one's packed, bestie: bits 7:0 are the frame type, and bits 15:8 are the RX error type. two facts in one field, we love a multitasker 🫶
• rssi — also doing the most: bits 7:0 are energy chain-A, bits 15:8 are chain-B, both measured at FINA time (FINA_ENERGY), and bits 16:23 are the channel. three for the price of one, no cap 💀
• on_air_rise_time — this is GP2 during on air rise. literally just that ✨
• fr_time — the frame time. short and sweet 🌸
• rate — the rate/mcs of the frame. periodt 🔥
• phy_info — enum iwl_rx_phy_he_data0 or enum iwl_rx_phy_eht_data0, and which one you get depends on enum iwl_rx_phy_info_type. it's giving ✨ choose your own adventure ✨
• rx_vec — DW-12:9 raw RX vectors straight from the DSP, according to modulation type. for VHT it's OFDM_RX_VECTOR_SIGA1_OUT and OFDM_RX_VECTOR_SIGA2_OUT; for HE it's OFDM_RX_VECTOR_HE_SIGA1_OUT and OFDM_RX_VECTOR_HE_SIGA2_OUT. straight from the DSP, we're obsessed 🧚
