STRUCT STATION_DEL_PARAMETERS(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🎀 STRUCT STATION_DEL_PARAMETERS(9) 🎀

okay so this is the struct station_del_parameters page from the Kernel API Manual, and bestie, it's literally the glow-up guide for yeeting a station out of your driver. sit down, we're doing this 💅

✨ NAME ✨

struct station_del_parameters — the parameter bundle for station deletion, no cap 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct station_del_parameters {
    const u8 *mac;
    u8 subtype;
    u16 reason_code;
    int link_id;
 };

like, that's the whole struct. four fields. main character energy, honestly 👑

🦋 Members 🦋

  • mac — the MAC address of the station you wanna remove. pass NULL here and it's giving "remove all stations" — chaotic but iconic 💀
  • subtype — which management frame subtype you use to announce the removal. your options are 10 = Disassociation, or 12 = Deauthentication. pick your fighter 🥊
  • reason_code — the reason code that goes into that Disassociation/Deauthentication frame. it's the "why are you leaving" receipt, fr fr 🧾
  • link_id — the Link ID indicating a link that the stations to be flushed must be using. heads up though: this is valid only for MLO, but it can also be -1 for MLO when you really wanna remove all stations. yes, "-1 means all" again, classic Unix behavior, we love consistency 🙈

💖 Description 💖

so this struct is used to delete a station entry (or, y'know, all stations if you're feeling dramatic). that's the whole vibe check. it's the parameters you hand over when you want somebody gone 🦋✨

ngl this part is short but the lore continues — more sections are coming in the next parts, so don't go anywhere bestie 💜

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

Okay so this is the part where the manpage just dumps the entire friend group on you 💀 like bestie there are so many cross-references here, this is the group chat with 300 members and every single one is relevant, no cap. Grab a snack 🍓, we're going through all of them, and not a single one gets left on read.

That's the band/capability era of the list, and she ate 🎀 now we get into the configuration section:

The NAN section, aka the ones with the cutest acronym 💅:

Utility functions, the "little helpers" of the family 🌸:

Data path helpers, moving packets like it's nothing 🦋:

Regulatory enforcement infrastructure — the rules girlies 🚨:

Then the BSS/scan-event crowd, and the notification besties 💖:

RFkill integration and vendor commands, the whole extended universe ⭐:

Connect/roam/station notification girlies — this chunk is literally the drama channel 😭:

And that's every single one, bestie — nobody got skipped, we did the full vibe check on the entire reference list 💜 and there's still more page coming, so don't go anywhere 🧚

...and bestie, the list literally does not stop, so buckle up 💅 Here's the rest of the family — every single one of them, same order, no skips, no cap:

ok that was round one, hydrating rn 🍓
still here, still slaying ✨ round three:
final stretch, we're so back 🫶

And that's the whole squad, bestie — every cross-reference carried over exactly, none dropped, none renamed, none merged 💖 If a name isn't in this list, it's not in this list, and that's the vibe check passing.

This page lives in ./include/net, and it's timestamped October 2026 — it ships as part of the Kernel API Manual. So yeah, that's where it comes from and when it's from, and now you know the whole thing top to bottom, front to back, NAME to footer 🌸

Go read the actual struct now, you've got this 👑💜
