🌸 struct vif_saved_ie(9) — Kernel API Manual 🌸

okay so this is the struct vif_saved_ie(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and it’s literally the saved-IE storage situation for a virtual interface 💅 no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

struct vif_saved_ie — holds saved IEs for a virtual interface.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

bestie, here’s the struct in all its glory, and yes every field stays exactly as-is:

struct vif_saved_ie {
    u8 probe_req_ie[IE_MAX_LEN];
    u8 probe_res_ie[IE_MAX_LEN];
    u8 beacon_ie[IE_MAX_LEN];
    u8 assoc_req_ie[IE_MAX_LEN];
    u8 assoc_res_ie[IE_MAX_LEN];
    u32 probe_req_ie_len;
    u32 probe_res_ie_len;
    u32 beacon_ie_len;
    u32 assoc_req_ie_len;
    u32 assoc_res_ie_len;
};

🎀 Members 🎀

okay let’s meet the members one by one — the arrays are the IE info, and the u32 fields are the lengths ✨

• probe_req_ie — IE info for probe request.
• probe_res_ie — IE info for probe response.
• beacon_ie — IE info for beacon frame.
• assoc_req_ie — IE info for association request frame.
• assoc_res_ie — IE info for association response frame.
• probe_req_ie_len — IE info length for probe request.
• probe_res_ie_len — IE info length for probe response.
• beacon_ie_len — IE info length for beacon frame.
• assoc_req_ie_len — IE info length for association request frame.
• assoc_res_ie_len — IE info length for association response frame.
