🎀 Constants 🎀

every single one, bestie. we're not skipping a single member, i swear 💅

• FW_UPLOAD_ERR_NONE — the good ending 🥳. returned to indicate success. we love a zero.
• FW_UPLOAD_ERR_HW_ERROR — error signalled by hardware, see kernel log. the hardware is being dramatic, check the logs for the receipts 😭
• FW_UPLOAD_ERR_TIMEOUT — SW timed out on handshake with HW/firmware. the software and the firmware never matched energy. it's giving situationship that ghosted you 🙈
• FW_UPLOAD_ERR_CANCELED — upload was cancelled by the user. yes, you. you did this. main character energy but make it destructive 💀
• FW_UPLOAD_ERR_BUSY — there is an upload operation already in progress. one at a time, bestie, this isn't a group chat 🔥
• FW_UPLOAD_ERR_INVALID_SIZE — invalid firmware image size. the firmware is not the size it claims to be. liar behaviour fr fr 📏
• FW_UPLOAD_ERR_RW_ERROR — read or write to HW failed, see kernel log. check the logs, they're telling the story ✍️
• FW_UPLOAD_ERR_WEAROUT — FLASH device is approaching wear-out, wait & retry. ngl the flash is tired. like genuinely tired. let it rest and try again later 🛌
• FW_UPLOAD_ERR_FW_INVALID — invalid firmware file. that file is not what it says it is. not iconic. do not trust 🔍
• FW_UPLOAD_ERR_MAX — Maximum error code marker. just a sentinel doing its little job, guarding the end of the list ✨

OKAY and that's the page! 💜 this one was served to you from ./include/linux — October 2026, enum fw_upload_err(9), and honestly? she ate. go upload some firmware, responsibly, and remember: check the kernel log before you blame yourself 🌈👑
