STRUCT IWL_SAP_IPV6_FILTER(9)
π struct iwl_sap_ipv6_filter(9) π
okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β¨ β yes we're literally reading kernel docs together, this is our main character era and you're gonna slay it. today's episode: struct iwl_sap_ipv6_filter, aka the IPv6 filter configuration. tiny struct, big vibes π
π NAME π
struct iwl_sap_ipv6_filter β it's the IPv6 filter configuration, no cap π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
struct iwl_sap_ipv6_filter {
u8 addr_lo24[3];
u8 flags;
};
like, that's the whole thing. two members. minimal. iconic. π¦
π«Ά Members π«Ά
addr_lo24β the lowest 24 bits of the IPv6 address, stored in au8 addr_lo24[3]array. yes bestie, only the bottom 24 bits, that's the whole point, don't come for her πΈflagsβ the flags, and you gotta go checkenum iwl_sap_ipv6_filter_flagsfor what they actually mean. iykyk π
π₯ SEE ALSO π₯
like, all the lore lives in the kernel file ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mei/sap.h β go read it, fr fr π
and the whole friend group shows up here, so let me introduce every single one, no skipping, we don't do that:

like, that's the entire squad. read them all. it's giving study group ππ
ok that's the whole page bestie, go forth and filter those IPv6 addresses π
and that's a wrap! π this little love letter came from the kernel source path ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i..., dated October 2026, and it's filed under the Kernel API Manual. mwah, bye bestie π§π
