This prevents us from using struct pointers for binary types in C. We could support this situation better in the codegen, or add these structs to uAPI. That said Johannes suggested we remove the WiFi structs for now, and the rt-link ones are semi-broken. Drop the struct definitions, for now, if someone has a need to use such structs in Python (as opposed to them being defined for completeness) we can revist. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/20250505170215.253672-1-kuba@kernel.org ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250506194101.696272-1-kuba@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski --- 0a055ec03d0a0f4356cdc89f609669e327ad0f2b
