STRUCT IWL_SCAN_PERIODIC_PARMS_V1(9)
๐ struct iwl_scan_periodic_parms_v1(9) โ periodicity parameters ๐
okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual โจ this is the page for struct iwl_scan_periodic_parms_v1, and it's literally the little glow-up struct that holds your periodicity parameters ๐ yes that's the whole vibe. no cap.
โจ NAME โจ
struct iwl_scan_periodic_parms_v1 โ periodicity parameters ๐ฆ that's it, that's the name, she's iconic and she knows it.
๐ SYNOPSIS ๐
okay so here's the actual shape of her, and you're gonna copy it exactly, no "fixing" the vibes, mwah ๐
struct iwl_scan_periodic_parms_v1 {
struct iwl_scan_umac_schedule schedule[IWL_MAX_SCHED_SCAN_PLANS];
__le16 delay;
__le16 reserved;
};
like, look at her. three members. clean. minimal. main character energy ๐ โจ
๐ธ MEMBERS ๐ธ
okay so let's meet the squad, one by one ๐ซถ
scheduleโ can scheduling parameter ๐๏ธ that's what the manpage says and we're not gonna pretend otherwise. she's the scheduling parameter, periodt.delayโ initial delay of the periodic scan in seconds โฐ so like, how long she waits before the periodic scan kicks off, and the unit is seconds, don't @ me with milliseconds, that's not what this field said ๐ญreservedโ reserved for future ๐ฎ she's not doing anything yet, she's just holding space, and honestly? respecting that ๐ she's reserved for a future that may or may not come, and that's her whole job.
ngl bestie, do not go writing into reserved thinking you're clever. it's reserved for future, not reserved for you ๐
๐ SEE ALSO ๐
okay so this is the part where I introduce you to literally everyone she's ever been seen with โ the whole friend group, the whole scan.h extended universe ๐ฆ and yes, we're listing them all, because every single one of these is a link you might need, iykyk:

like I said. the whole group chat ๐ฑ๐
okay and for the sign-off, the source is ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... ๐ฆ and this page is dated October 2026 โญ so like, future vibes, but the facts are timeless. she's struct iwl_scan_periodic_parms_v1(9), she's periodicity parameters, and she ate ๐
๐ฅ slay bestie, go forth and schedule your scans ๐โจ
