STRUCT QLINK_CMD_REG_NOTIFY(9)

🛰️ struct qlink_cmd_reg_notify(9) — no cap, this is the Kernel API Manual bestie

okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel docs, section 9 of the Kernel API Manual, and you land on struct qlink_cmd_reg_notify. Don't panic 💖 — it's literally just the data payload for the QLINK_CMD_REG_NOTIFY command, and we're gonna walk through it together.

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct qlink_cmd_reg_notify — the data for the QLINK_CMD_REG_NOTIFY command. that's it, that's the whole vibe 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the whole struct, copied exactly because we do not play with kernel headers:

struct qlink_cmd_reg_notify {
    struct qlink_cmd chdr;
    u8 alpha2[2];
    u8 initiator;
    u8 user_reg_hint_type;
    u8 num_channels;
    u8 dfs_region;
    u8 slave_radar;
    u8 dfs_offload;
    u8 info[];
 };

periodt. the info[] at the end is flexible-array energy, we love to see it 🦋

let's go field by field, bestie, no skipping 👑

• alpha2 — the ISO / IEC 3166 alpha2 country code. yes, the cute two-letter one, it's two whole bytes of u8 and it's living in alpha2[2] 🌍
• initiator — which entity sent the request, one of enum qlink_reg_initiator. like, who started this? we must know 💅
• user_reg_hint_type — the type of hint for a QLINK_REGDOM_SET_BY_USER request, one of enum qlink_user_reg_hint_type. it's giving "here's my suggestion bestie" 🙈
• num_channels — the number of struct qlink_tlv_channel in a variable portion of a payload. count 'em, queen 🔢
• dfs_region — one of enum qlink_dfs_regions. radar country business, iykyk 📡
• slave_radar — whether the slave device should enable radar detection. yes/no energy, but in a u8 🎀
• dfs_offload — enable or disable DFS offload to firmware. handing the work off, iconic delegation behavior ✨
• info — the variable portion of the regulatory notifier callback. this is the "rest of the payload lives here" situation 🔥
