Module: PWN::FFI::HackRF

Extended by:
Library
Defined in:
lib/pwn/ffi/hack_rf.rb

Overview

Thin libhackrf binding for inventory / RX of raw I/Q.

Intentionally control-plane first: init/open/tune/rate/gains + one-shot sync-style helpers used by Extrospection probe_rf and by wideband PWN::SDR::Decoder::* modules that need real I/Q (not GQRX audio). Callbacks copy into a bounded nonblocking queue. Ruby callbacks still acquire the GVL and allocate: this is not a hard-realtime guarantee.

end

.start_rx(opts = {}) ⇒ Object

Supported Method Parameters

rx = PWN::FFI::HackRF.start_rx( device: 'required - pointer from .open', max_queue: 'optional - max buffered chunks (default 64)' ) Returns { device:, queue:, callback:, overruns:, dropped_bytes: }. Counters cover application queue drops only, not unreported USB/RF loss. An overrun/error latches :error; read_sync raises until RX is restarted. libhackrf runs the callback on its own libusb thread; FFI acquires the GVL for us, so keep the callback body to a bare byte copy.

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)
