STRUCT IWL_WOWLAN_IGTK_STATUS(9)

💖 struct iwl_wowlan_igtk_status(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for struct iwl_wowlan_igtk_status — yes that's the whole name, yes it's a mouthful, and yes it's literally the IGTK status struct. buckle up, it's short and it slays 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct iwl_wowlan_igtk_status — IGTK status. that's it. that's the name. iconic brevity 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the whole glow-up, bestie — no cap, this is the entire struct:

struct iwl_wowlan_igtk_status {
    u8 key[WOWLAN_KEY_MAX_SIZE];
    u8 ipn[6];
    u8 key_len;
    u8 key_flags;
    u8 key_status;
    u8 reserved[3];
 };

look at her. six fields. main character energy from top to bottom 👑

---

🎀 Members 🎀

okay let's go field by field, i got you:

• key — the IGTK material itself. the actual key juice 🍓
• ipn — the IGTK packet number (aka the replay counter). she's counting packets so nobody replays them, periodt.
• key_len — the IGTK length. and listen: if it's set to 0, the key is not available — so a zero here means "no key, bestie, don't go looking" 🙈
• key_flags — the tea about the key, bit by bit:
  • bits[0]: key index assigned by the AP (0: index 4, 1: index 5) (0: index 6, 1: index 7 with bigtk) — yes, the bigtk changes the meaning, iykyk
  • bits[1:5]: IGTK index of the key in the internal DB
  • bit[6]: Set iff this is the currently used IGTK 🔥
• key_status — the key status, see enum iwl_wowlan_key_status ✨
• reserved — padding. she's just vibing there taking up space 💀

that's the whole page, bestie. no hidden lore, no plot twists, just a struct and her very detailed key flags 🧚

mwah 💋 this masterpiece came from ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... and dropped October 2026 — catch you in the next struct iwl_..._igtk_status(9) manual, byeee 👑✨
