STRUCT STATISTICS_TX_POWER(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– struct statistics_tx_power(9) β€” from the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨

okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel API manual, section 9, and you stumble on struct statistics_tx_power πŸ¦‹ and you're like "what even is this?" β€” don't worry, I got you. It's literally just the current tx power. That's the whole vibe. No cap.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct statistics_tx_power {
    u8 ant_a;
    u8 ant_b;
    u8 ant_c;
    u8 reserved;
 };

Look at her. Four little u8 fields. Small but mighty. πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ Members πŸŽ€

  • ant_a β€” the current tx power on chain a, measured in 1/2 dB step πŸ’…
  • ant_b β€” the current tx power on chain b, also in 1/2 dB step 🌸
  • ant_c β€” yep, you guessed it: the current tx power on chain c, in 1/2 dB step too 🫢
  • reserved β€” reserved for alignment 🧚 (it's doing structural support work, respect her)
fr fr keep the 1/2 dB step units in mind β€” that's not optional info, that's the whole measurement system 😭

sign-off time πŸŽ€ this cutie lives at ./drivers/net/wireless/intel/i... (that's the source path, truncated by the manpage itself, not me β€” I would never πŸ™ˆ), and the version/date stamp is October 2026, all wrapped under the title struct statistics_tx_power(9). slay. periodt. πŸ’œ
