STRUCT IWL_SCAN_CHANNEL_CFG_LMAC(9)
πΈ NAME πΈ
struct iwl_scan_channel_cfg_lmac β the one and only SCAN_CHANNEL_CFG_S_VER2 β¨
okay so real quick bestie, this page lives in the Kernel API Manual, section 9 β yep, a (9) girlie, she's a kernel struct and she's iconic π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
struct iwl_scan_channel_cfg_lmac {
__le32 flags;
__le16 channel_num;
__le16 iter_count;
__le32 iter_interval;
};
that's the whole glow-up. four fields, no notes. π
π MEMBERS π
flagsβ okay so bits 1-20 are doing the directed scan to the i'th ssid, and every other bit is the enumiwl_scan_channel_flags_lmac. two jobs, one__le32, she's multitasking πchannel_numβ the channel number, like 1-13 etc. literally just which channel you're on, no cap πiter_countβ the scan iteration on this channel. how many times we're looping, and yes we're counting πiter_intervalβ the interval in seconds between iterations on one channel. soiter_countloops,iter_intervalis the gap between them. clock it β°
side note: the interval is in seconds, not millis, not micros. seconds. don't be out here guessing π
π§ SEE ALSO π§
the kernel file is ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/fw/api/scan.h β that's the mothership, go say hi π«Ά

like I said. the whole friend group. 54 of them and every single one is invited to the group chat ππ
that's the page, bestie β go read scan.h and slay π

source says ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... (yes it's truncated like that, that's literally what it says, don't come for me π) and the date on the tin is October 2026 β so mark your calendar, mwah ππ¦π
