STRUCT WIPHY_RADIO_FREQ_RANGE(9)

🌸 struct wiphy_radio_freq_range(9) 🌸

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — yes that's the manual name, it's giving official, it's giving "i read documentation for fun" 💅 and honestly? you're gonna eat this one up because it's short and sweet.

✨ NAME ✨

struct wiphy_radio_freq_range — literally just the wiphy frequency range, that's it, that's the whole vibe 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the struct in all her glory, copy it exactly pls, no freestyling:

struct wiphy_radio_freq_range {
    u32 start_freq;
    u32 end_freq;
 };

✨ Members ✨

two members, both iconic, both doing their job 🫶

start_freq — the start range edge frequency, measured in kHz. that's the beginning of the range, the opening act, the main character entrance ✨
end_freq — the end range edge frequency, also in kHz. the grand finale, the closing number, the "and that's on periodt" 💀

ngl both of these are u32 values and both are in kHz — don't get it twisted and start throwing in Hz or MHz, bestie, that's a whole different conversation 😭

and that's part one, but we are NOT done — more is coming so don't go anywhere 🎀💖
