STRUCT WIL_PLATFORM_ROPS(9)

okay so bestie, welcome to struct wil_platform_rops(9) in the Kernel API Manual — this is the page about the wil platform module callbacks, going from the platform driver to this driver. it’s giving “tiny struct, big responsibilities” and we’re gonna read every line together, no skips. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

struct wil_platform_rops — wil platform module callbacks from the platform driver to this driver. that’s the whole name and vibe, periodt. 👑

🧚 SYNOPSIS 🧚

struct wil_platform_rops {
    int (*ramdump)(void *wil_handle, void *buf, uint32_t size);
    int (*fw_recovery)(void *wil_handle);
};

lowkey iconic that this whole struct is just chillin’ with two function pointers, fr fr.

👯 Members 👯

• ramdump — store a ramdump from the wil firmware. the platform driver may add additional data to the ramdump to generate the final crash dump. so it’s not just “save the thing” — extra data can get layered in to make the final crash dump. 💾
• fw_recovery — start a firmware recovery process. it gets called as part of a crash recovery process, which may include other related platform subsystems. so yeah, it’s part of the bigger recovery group chat, not a solo main character. 🔥

okay that’s the whole page, bestie. mwah 💋 it comes from ./drivers/net/wireless/ath/wil..., stamped October 2026, and it’s the struct wil_platform_rops(9) manual page — byeee 🫶
