wlcore_cmd_...ure_failsafe(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… wlcore_cmd_configure_failsafe(9) β€” from the Kernel API Manual, bestie

okay so this is a kernel API manual page, and honestly? it's giving "tiny function, big responsibilities." no cap. let's get into it ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

wlcore_cmd_configure_failsafe β€” write acx value to firmware

like, that's the whole gig. it writes an acx value to the firmware. iconic behavior honestly 🫢


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int wlcore_cmd_configure_failsafe (struct wl1271 *wl , u16 id , void
*buf , size_t len , unsigned long valid_rets );

that's the whole signature, no cuts, no edits β€” exactly how the kernel likes it πŸ’–


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • wl β€” the wl struct. your main character struct, fr fr πŸ’œ
  • id β€” acx id. yep, that's the one 🌸
  • buf β€” buffer containing acx, including all headers. and listen β€” it must work with dma. that's not a vibe suggestion, that's a requirement, okay? don't come crying to me if your buffer isn't dma-friendly 😭
  • len β€” length of buf. measure twice, send once πŸŽ€
  • valid_rets β€” a bitmap of valid cmd status codes (i.e. return values). and here's the cute part: it'll return the cmd status on success. slay πŸ’…

lowkey a reminder: buf must work with dma, and valid_rets is a bitmap of valid cmd status codes β€” the cmd status gets returned on success. no guessing, that's literally what the page says πŸ’€

and that's the page!! shipped from ./drivers/net/wireless/ti/wlcore, dated October 2026. catch you in the next manpage, bestie β€” mwah πŸ’–βœ¨πŸŽ€πŸ¦‹πŸŒΈπŸ«Ά
