ENUM VIRTCHNL2_TXQ_SCHED_MODE(9)

🌸 enum virtchnl2_txq_sched_mode(9) 🌸

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 💖 — this page is all about enum virtchnl2_txq_sched_mode, aka the Transmit Queue Scheduling Modes. yes that's a mouthful, no I will not be shortening it, it's iconic and we respect it. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

enum virtchnl2_txq_sched_mode — Transmit Queue Scheduling Modes. that's the whole vibe. it decides how your transmit queue schedules stuff. slay.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here's literally the whole thing, character for character, because I would never do you dirty like that:

enum virtchnl2_txq_sched_mode {
    VIRTCHNL2_TXQ_SCHED_MODE_QUEUE ,
    VIRTCHNL2_TXQ_SCHED_MODE_FLOW

};

two modes. that's it. two little choices and they change everything. 💅

---

🌈 CONSTANTS 🌈

bestie this is the part you actually came for, let's go:

• VIRTCHNL2_TXQ_SCHED_MODE_QUEUE — the OG mode, the legacy one 👑. it's the inorder completions situation: descriptors and buffers get completed at the same time. everything neat, everything lined up, no surprises. it's giving organized locker energy. 🎀
• VIRTCHNL2_TXQ_SCHED_MODE_FLOW — the glow-up mode ✨. flow scheduling lets packets be processed out of order — descriptors still get cleaned up in order, but the buffers can be completed out of order. so like... the line is still a line, but people are leaving through different doors. main character behavior honestly. 🦋

no cap, the difference is real: QUEUE = everything together, FLOW = descriptors in order, buffers out of order. don't mix them up bestie 😭
