STRUCT IWL_SCAN_CHANNEL_CFG_LMAC(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct iwl_scan_channel_cfg_lmac β€” the one and only SCAN_CHANNEL_CFG_S_VER2 ✨

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 πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

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. πŸŽ€


πŸ’– MEMBERS πŸ’–

  • flags β€” okay so bits 1-20 are doing the directed scan to the i'th ssid, and every other bit is the enum iwl_scan_channel_flags_lmac. two jobs, one __le32, she's multitasking πŸ’€
  • channel_num β€” the channel number, like 1-13 etc. literally just which channel you're on, no cap 🌈
  • iter_count β€” the scan iteration on this channel. how many times we're looping, and yes we're counting πŸ“
  • iter_interval β€” the interval in seconds between iterations on one channel. so iter_count loops, iter_interval is the gap between them. clock it ⏰
side note: the interval is in seconds, not millis, not micros. seconds. don't be out here guessing πŸ’…
