STRUCT QLINK_EVENT(9)

🎀 struct qlink_event(9) — QLINK event message header 🎀

okay bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and this page is about the struct that goes “event alert!!!” for QLINK. it's the header vibe for QLINK_MSG_TYPE_EVENT messages, and yes, every field matters. 💖

✨ NAME ✨

struct qlink_event — QLINK event message header

🧚 SYNOPSIS 🧚

struct qlink_event {
    struct qlink_msg_header mhdr;
    __le16 event_id;
    u8 macid;
    u8 vifid;
 };

💅 Members 💅

• mhdr — common QLINK message header. the shared header bestie, no cap. 🫶
• event_id — specifies the specific event ID, one of enum qlink_event_type. it's the “which event tho” field, and the enum is the menu. ✨
• macid — index of the physical radio device the event was generated on, or QLINK_MACID_RSVD if not applicable. 🎀
• vifid — index of the virtual wireless interface on the specified macid that the event was generated on, or QLINK_VIFID_RSVD if not applicable. 🦋

🌸 Description 🌸

this struct is the header used for QLINK messages of QLINK_MSG_TYPE_EVENT type. literally the event-message header, and it's iconic for exactly that. 👑
