STRUCT IWL_SCAN_CHANNEL_OPT(9)

✨ struct iwl_scan_channel_opt(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the struct iwl_scan_channel_opt(9) page from the Kernel API Manual 💖 this is the one that's literally nicknamed CHANNEL_OPTIMIZATION_API_S, so yeah, she has range 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct iwl_scan_channel_opt — no cap, this is CHANNEL_OPTIMIZATION_API_S 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here's the whole glow-up, copied exactly, don't @ me:

struct iwl_scan_channel_opt {
    __le16 flags;
    __le16 non_ebs_ratio;
 };

---

💜 Members 💜

• flags — this one's typed as enum iwl_scan_channel_flags 🧚 the flag vibes live over there, she just holds the reference.
• non_ebs_ratio — okay this field is the main character fr. It defines the ratio of number of scan iterations where EBS is involved 🌈 so like, the math is:
  • 1 — EBS is disabled, periodt 💀
  • 2 — every second scan will be full scan (and so on) ✨

so yeah, she's counting iterations. iykyk 🫶
