STRUCT RXDONE_ENTRY_DESC(9)

🎀 NAME 🎀

Okay bestie, the page title is struct rxdone_entry_desc(9), and it comes from the Kernel API Manual 💖. The name situation is: struct rxdone_entry_desc — RX Entry descriptor. That's literally it. It's giving "descriptor for the RX entry" and we are seated. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct rxdone_entry_desc {
    u64 timestamp;
    int signal;
    int rssi;
    int size;
    int flags;
    int dev_flags;
    u16 rate_mode;
    u16 enc_flags;
    enum mac80211_rx_encoding encoding;
    enum rate_info_bw bw;
    u8 cipher;
    u8 cipher_status;
    __le32 iv[2];
    __le32 icv;
};

• timestamp — RX Timestamp. Timekeeping but make it reception ⏰✨
• signal — Signal of the received frame. Very demure, very signal-y.
• rssi — RSSI of the received frame. The vibe check number, basically.
• size — Data size of the received frame. Big? Small? This field knows.
• flags — MAC80211 receive flags (See enum mac80211_rx_flags). Flags are iconic, no cap.
• dev_flags — Ralink receive flags (See enum rxdone_entry_desc_flags). More flags, more lore.
• rate_mode — Rate mode (See enum rate_modulation). Rate mode bestie, look it up.
• cipher — Cipher type used during decryption. Secret-agent energy 🔐
• cipher_status — Decryption status. Did it slay or did it flop? This tells you.
• iv — IV/EIV data used during decryption. Decryption juice 🧃
• icv — ICV data used during decryption. Also decryption juice, different letter.

Also in the struct: enc_flags, encoding, and bw are totally up in the code block. The original Members list doesn't give them separate blurbs, so I'm not inventing any lore 🙈 periodt.

🌸 Description 🌸

Summary of information that has been read from the RX frame descriptor. That's the whole vibe — it's a recap of what got read from the RX frame descriptor. Clean, simple, iconic ✨
