STRUCT STP_POLICY_ID(9)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, this is struct stp_policy_id(9) from the Kernel API Manual — it's literally the identification for the STP policy 💅🪪

struct stp_policy_id — identification for the STP policy 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here's the struct, no cap, copy it exactly and don't freestyle the fields:

       struct stp_policy_id {
           __u32 size;
           __u16 master;
           __u16 channel;
           __u16 width;
           __u16 __reserved_0;
           __u32 __reserved_1;
           char id[];
        };

the struct is also carrying __reserved_0 and __reserved_1, so don't pretend they're not there 🙈

🎀 Members 🎀

• size — size of the structure including real id[] length 🍓
• master — assigned master 👑
• channel — first assigned channel 🌈
• width — number of requested channels 📏
• id — identification string 🏷️

💅 Description 💅

okay so the user has to do the math: calculate the total size of the structure and put it into the size field. then fill out the id and the desired width ✨

in return, the kernel fills out master, channel, and width 🫶🔥
