Why is this a pointer?

NEW is something we never saw before and KNOWN we already saw before?
I am not getting that when I just want to maintain a list in the user
space and keep them updated, but I think we had this discussion
already or? Currently they do the same thing, just the command is
different. The user can use it to filter NEW and KNOWN? Still I am not
getting it why there is not just a start ... event, event, event ....
end. and let the user decide if it knows that it's new or old from its
perspective.

Interesting, if you do a scan and discover pans and others answers I
would think you would see only pans on the same preamble. How is this
working?

not against it to have it, it's fine. I just think it is not very
useful. A way to dump all LQI values with some timestamp and having
something in user space to collect stats and do some heuristic may be
better?

ah, okay that answers my previous question... regarding the trace event.
