ENUM XSDFEC_ORDER(9)

💅 enum xsdfec_order(9) — like, the Kernel API Manual entry, bestie 🎀

okay so this is straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it's genuinely such a little icon. It's a <italic>enum</italic>, it lives in the kernel, and it's here to answer exactly one question: are your blocks allowed to show up out of order or not. That's it. That's the whole vibe. ✨

---

✨ NAME ✨

enum xsdfec_order — Order. That's the name, that's the whole name, she's not doing extra. 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

enum xsdfec_order {
    XSDFEC_MAINTAIN_ORDER ,
    XSDFEC_OUT_OF_ORDER

};

^^ literally the entire definition, no cap. Two constants, one curly-brace moment, absolutely serving. 🔥

---

🌸 Constants 🌸

• XSDFEC_MAINTAIN_ORDER — bestie, this one maintains the order execution of blocks. Blocks go in, blocks come out, same sequence, nothing jumps the queue. Iconic, predictable, lowkey the responsible friend. 🫶
• XSDFEC_OUT_OF_ORDER — and this one is out-of-order execution of blocks. The blocks do not stay in line, and honestly? Main character energy. 🌀✨

---

💖 Description 💖

So the whole point of this enum is to indicate whether the order of blocks can change from input to output. That's it. That's the function. It's a vibe check for block ordering. 🌈

Like, when some other part of the API needs to know "hey are we preserving sequence here or are we freestyling," this enum is the thing you pass. fr fr. 💜

⭐ lowkey reminder that XSDFEC_SET_ORDER(9) is the call that actually uses this enum, so if you clicked here from there, you're exactly where you should be. iykyk 🧚
