ENUM CDX_MCDI_CMD_STATE(9)

💅 enum cdx_mcdi_cmd_state(9) 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's all about enum cdx_mcdi_cmd_state — literally just the state tracker for one single MCDI command. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

enum cdx_mcdi_cmd_state — the state for an individual MCDI command, no cap 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

enum cdx_mcdi_cmd_state {
    MCDI_STATE_QUEUED ,
    MCDI_STATE_RETRY ,
    MCDI_STATE_RUNNING ,
    MCDI_STATE_RUNNING_CANCELLED ,
    MCDI_STATE_FINISHED

};

🦋 Constants 🦋

these are the five moods a command can be in, and honestly? relatable. 😭

• MCDI_STATE_QUEUED — the command hasn't started yet, it's just sitting there waiting for its turn to run. main character energy but make it queue 🫶
• MCDI_STATE_RETRY — the command got submitted and then MC was like "nope, no resources for you" because MC already has too many outstanding commands. it will get retried once another command returns. it's giving rejected-but-not-really 💀
• MCDI_STATE_RUNNING — the command was accepted and it's running right now. slay 🔥
• MCDI_STATE_RUNNING_CANCELLED — the command is running, BUT the issuer cancelled it. awkward. 🙈
• MCDI_STATE_FINISHED — processing of this command has completed. periodt. 👑
