STRUCT RADAR_DETECTOR_SPECS(9)
π struct radar_detector_specs(9) π
okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β¨ β this is the page for struct radar_detector_specs, and it is literally the blueprint for one radar pattern type's detector specs. no cap, if you're doing DFS/radar detection stuff on wifi, this struct is your main character. π
πΈ NAME πΈ
struct radar_detector_specs β detector specs for a radar pattern type π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
struct radar_detector_specs {
u8 type_id;
u8 width_min;
u8 width_max;
u16 pri_min;
u16 pri_max;
u8 num_pri;
u8 ppb;
u8 ppb_thresh;
u8 max_pri_tolerance;
bool chirp;
};
likeβ¦ look at her. she's tiny. she's iconic. she holds the whole vibe check for one radar pattern type π¦

okay now the important part β every single field, no skipping, i would never do that to you π«Ά
type_idβ the pattern type, as defined by regulatory. the official ID of the radar vibe, iykyk πwidth_minβ minimum radar pulse width in [us] β±οΈwidth_maxβ maximum radar pulse width in [us] β±οΈpri_minβ minimum pulse repetition interval in [us] (including tolerance) π₯pri_maxβ minimum pri in [us] (including tolerance) π β yeah, the page literally says "minimum" forpri_maxhere. that's what it says, i'm not out here fixing it, i'm just reporting it πnum_priβ maximum number of different pri for this type, so likeβ¦ how many pri options she can hold πppbβ pulses per bursts for this type π₯ppb_threshβ number of pulses required to trigger detection. this is the "how many taps before it goes off" number πmax_pri_toleranceβ pulse time stamp tolerance on both sides [us]. both sides! generous queen πchirpβ chirp required for the radar pattern π¦

ok bestie go read those too, the friend group is literally all connected π
and that's the whole page!! mwah π β this masterpiece lives over in ./drivers/net/wireless/ath, dated October 2026, and it's struct radar_detector_specs(9) forever and always. periodt. πβ¨
