Please, don't use enums for interfaces. They are implementation defined
types, and vary between compilers and within the same compiler also
depending on optimization flags.
C17::6.7.2.2.4:
[
Each enumerated type shall be compatible with char,
a signed integer type, or an unsigned integer type.
The choice of type is implementation-defined,130)
but shall be capable of representing the values of
all the members of the enumeration.
]
See also:
<https://stackoverflow.com/questions/366017/what-is-the-size-of-an-enum-in-c>
So, please use only standard integer types for interfaces.
And in the case of enums, since the language specifies that enumeration
constants (the macro-like identifiers) are of type int, it makes sense
for functions to use int.
C17::6.7.2.2.3:
[
The identifiers in an enumerator list are declared as constants
that have type int and may appear wherever such are permitted.
]
I'd use an int for the API/ABI, even if it's expected to be assigned
values of 'enum trusted_for_usage' (that should be specified in the
manual page in DESCRIPTION, but not in SYNOPSIS, which should specify int).
TL;DR:
ISO C specifies that for the following code:
enum foo {BAR};
enum foo foobar;
typeof(foo) shall be int
typeof(foobar) is implementation-defined
Since foobar = BAR; assigns an int, the best thing to do to avoid
implementation-defined behavior, is to declare foobar as int too.

Same here.
