STRUCT IWL_UMAC_SCAN_START(9)

💖 struct iwl_umac_scan_start(9) 💖

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and this one is short but she matters. This is the page for struct iwl_umac_scan_start and honestly it's giving tiny-struct-big-importance energy. She's a little notification packet, she's got two fields, and she's out here doing her job. periodt.

✨ NAME ✨

struct iwl_umac_scan_start — scan start notification 💫

Like, it's literally the "hey girl, the scan is starting" notif. That's the whole vibe.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct iwl_umac_scan_start {
    __le32 uid;
    __le32 reserved;
 };

look at her. two fields. flawless. no notes. 🎀

🦋 Members 🦋

• uid — the scan id, and it's an enum iwl_umac_scan_uid_offsets kind of situation. this is the main character field tbh 👑
• reserved — for future use 🙈 okay so this one is just sitting there being saved for later, like a little seat at the table for a future field. do not touch. do not use. she's reserved in the literal sense.

🫶 quick vibe check: reserved is for future use — that's straight from the page, no cap. treat it like a placeholder, not like a toy.

okay this is the part where the whole friend group shows up, because basically everything in scan.h is here. not me listing all of them, but like… we're listing all of them. because every single one counts. 💅

🌈 and that's the page, bestie! this one came from the source file ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... (that's the truncated path as she appears on the page, we're not gonna pretend otherwise 🫶), October 2026 edition, and it signs off as struct iwl_umac_scan_start(9). go forth and scan, icon 👑💖
