STRUCT IWL_TDLS_CHANNEL_SWITCH_TIMING(9)

✨ struct iwl_tdls_channel_switch_timing(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 💖 you're literally about to learn the switch timing struct for TDLS channel-switch and honestly? it's giving "small struct, big responsibilities" 👑

🎀 NAME 🎀

struct iwl_tdls_channel_switch_timing — the switch timing bits for TDLS channel-switch, no cap 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

struct iwl_tdls_channel_switch_timing {
    __le32 frame_timestamp;
    __le32 max_offchan_duration;
    __le32 switch_time;
    __le32 switch_timeout;
 };

look at her. four __le32 fields. iconic, honestly 🌸

💜 Members 💜

• frame_timestamp — the GP2 timestamp of the channel-switch request/response packet that came in from the peer 🫶 literally just "when did we get this packet" energy.
• max_offchan_duration — how many microseconds out of a DTIM get handed over to TDLS off-channel communication ✨ for example (and this is straight from the source, don't @ me): if the DTIM is 200TU and the TDLS peer is supposed to get 25% of the time, the value you give is 50TU — which is 50 * 1024 if you translate it into microseconds 🧮 math girlies rise.
• switch_time — the switch time the peer sent in its channel switch timing IE 💫 it's their number, they said it, we're just holding it.
• switch_timeout — the switch timeout the peer sent in its channel switch timing IE ⏰ same vibe, different field. the peer said it, it goes here.
